Probably very little, but then a debat-o- r isn't an average high school stud- kind of group," Dallof said. "After accomplishing that our goal becomes concerned with actually winning debates and tournaments." The basic purpose is to teach stud-ewnto study out the "pro's and con's" of a question. Said Dallof, "A student has to be prepared to understand both sides of a question. A good debater knows in advance what his opposition is going to ent. ts Debaters across Utah will be debating the complex subject of penal reform pro and con when they square off this winter and Bear River High School's debaters will be no exception.

IM1 say." Dallof said debaters are judged on the same six points which unofficial judges marked Jimmy Carter and President Gerald Ford on during their three meetings. The points include: delivery, organization, analysis, evidence, refutation and reasoning. Dallof said his debaters generally concurred with the national judgement on the presidential debates giving Ford the first one and Carter the second one. Although the third one was rated pretty much of a toss up "our team because of location (in Utah which went heavily for Ford) gave the third one to Ford," Dallof said. The local debaters felt Carters was "more prepared and more agressive" in the second foreign policy debate and that the President was very much on the "defensive." Dallof said debate team members were "very vocal" about Ford's failure to use good debating techniques in the second meeting "because they were for him all the way." Debating is not an easy subject, Dallof pointed out; Students quickly learn that research is a big part of it. Over an entire year a debater will probably spend as much time in extracurricular research as an athlete does years since the almost lost art started a resurgence at the school. The debate squad starts things off Friday and Saturday in the Governor's Cup competition at Cottonwood High School in Salt Lake City. The competition is sponsored annually by state government. Subject for the meet and for all meets this year is "Resolved that comprehensive system of penal reform be adopted throughout the US." Debate instructor Burr Dallof thinks the complex topic is a good one "because it gets the students involved in what's going on right now." Such questions as whether a convicted murderer like Gary Mark Gillmore has the right to demand a speedy execution are part of it all. "It gets the students knowledgeable about the present system," Dallof pointed out. The debate program at the high school has grown from just nine students two years ago to 34 this year. "We got so many people in our program this year that they actually compete with each other to see who gets to go to the meets," he said. "A couple of years ago we had to scrounge." "Our number one purpose is to help the individual student gain in speaking ability before any in practice. The debater usually starts our researching the side of the question he feels most confortable with but quickly 03 Gogfe oecD csGedd UJ realizes he or she also has to defend the other side. "Sometimes debaters have to go against something they really believe in," Dallof said. The instructor points out that debate is only one part of the "forensic" program which also includes oratory, extemporaneous speaking and speaking. Students also get training in government and such things as Robert's Rules of Order. ' This weekend's team will consist of the following: Larry Petersen, Curtis Mann, senior varsity cross examination; Sandra Smith and Laurie Campbell, varsity cross examination; Colleen Garfield and Brett Ellis, varsity Oxford debate ; Mark Butler and Carig Okada, junior varsity cross examination. An alternate team will also travel with the debaters to the meet. Under cross examination debate, the debaters give a constructive speech and a rebuttal speech but also have three minutes to ask questions of their opponent. No cross examination questions are allowed under Oxford style. Other members of the debate squad this year are: Neladet Allen, Steve Batis, Brenda Bolingbroke, Jenna Bown, Bryan, Buchanan, Annette Bunderson, Mark Butler, Mike Christ-enseTrade Clark, Scott Dansie, Kathy Douglas, Jim Huskinson, Scott Knell, Dee Marble, Andy Misrasi, Leland Olsen, Susan Petersen, Julie Reid, Kathy Ririe, Sandy Selman, Kim Smith, Shelley Stokes, Susan Summers, Camine Thasher and Mark West. i n, This year's schedule includes twenty different meets counting the region and state finals.
