years ago?
Interesting question, and very im-

But .who's going to answer the
query after the failure of two expert
debating teams at Center High as-
sembly failed to prove either an at-
flriaative or negative?
After hearing all the arguments
the Judges decided that "from the
facts given by both sides the girl of
50 years ago and the modern girl
made edually good home makers."
Champions of the modern-girl
were: ' '
