kept quite busy these last few aiming at a repetition of the
weeks. All credits have been
checked and rechecked, proving
to some that they had more than

a fantasy, as the Senior class
play. Much enthusiasm has been
shown by the seniors for the pro
duction. "Once in a Palace" is
similar to "One Hour With You,
Maurice Chevalier's latest film,
in many ways. The dialogue is
modern, while the setting and
costumes are taken from the
middle-ages.
The plot is based upon the old
"Arabian Nights' story of an
emperor who has a fatal weak
ness for clothes. As developed
Mr. Forsythe, principal of the
High School, was the speaker of

to the school, and later led a
round-table discussion.

The debating team of Ashland
High received their official cred
it for the 1933 season during the
Washington Day program. Miss
Tomlinson, debate coach, pre
sented the gold "A" to the four
members of the team, Rachel
Forsythe, Doris Hunter. Elmo
Andrews, and George Smith.
The district debates were held
the second week in February be
tween Medford, Grants Pass, and
Ashland. The single judge was
Prof. W. E. Dahlberg, of the
Speech Department, Vniverslty of
Oregon.
The teams this year appeared
to be quite evenly matched, but
Medford carried off the district
cup, which entitles them to rep

state competition.
The teams held practice de
bates with Klamath Falls about
a week before the district de
bates. Both of these were won
by Ashland.
