STUDENT REPORTERS
By Merlin Dow.
In accordance with the Grants
Pass-Medford game the French club
sponsored a pep dance Immediately
following the game Saturday after
noon, at which Orants Pass players
were honored guests.
The dance lasted an hour and a
half, breaking up near 6:00. Music
waa furnished by Whipple's orchestra,
engaged for the function by a dance
committee composed of French club
members and headed by Virginia
Martin and Dorothy Buchter. Small
red and black souvenir footballs were
sold for 10 cents each, which enabled
the owner to attend the dance. Sale
of these tickets was begun October
33, extended up until the time of
the dance and was continued at the
door. The attending crowd was a
large one and found the dance an In
teresting and unusual affair.
Not only was the dan for the
gathering of funds for the French
club, but for advertisement of the
Grants Pass-Medford game. It was
found to be a big success for both
the club and the school.
By Barbara Hampson.

Twenty-one societies participated in
the march and as the floats passed

cleverly advertising the game and
second prizes of 91 were given In each
section also. These were won by the
Future CraftBmon, G. A. A. and Latin
club.
The drum corps and the high
school band played In the line of
march preceding the floats. The
Junior, senior, and sophomore classes

The noise parade was orderly and
the students participating wero co
operative. It was believed that the
parade excited much interest In th
football game at the high school Sat
urday. Debate tournament, under direc
tion of Mr. Wood was brought, to a
Q v
close October 33, when the Torch
honor society triumphed over the
Oirls' league team with a majority

two votes to one In favor of the af
firmative, while Ruth Garlock and
Barbara Hampson of the Girls' league
negative lost- three votes to Burton
Daugherty and Kenneth Raymond of
the Torch honor affirmative. Thla
gave Torch honor four points to, the
uins league iwo.
The cup offered by the Klwanla
club, will be engraved with the win
ning club's name and will be pre
sented in the near future.
The debate was held between the
different clubs and societies In th.
school, the finals being between the
Torch honor, the French club and
the Girls' league. Each club had two
teams, one affirmative and one nega
tive, and the debates were held In the
different classes, the teachers acting
as Judges, except in the finals, when
two Judges and the class vote made
up the decision.
Mr. Wood announced his satisfac
tion with the fine co-operation be
tween the teams and hopes to con
tinue these interesting inter-club de
bates next year.
