Chuck, Dixie and Alan Snow Jchn Sanders Glenn Welcome Addresses Debate Class Hew Studentbody Students of Dixie College, how can your educational opportunities be increased? The future has become the present; a new school year is at hand. Let me approach you with three questions which may enrich you by personal application. Where are you at the present time? Where do you want to go? How are you going to get there? It is a trite expression, but in the plane geometry you learn that two shortest distance between points is a straight line. If you know where you are and where you want to go, it is a simple task to draw a straight line between the two points. Being an individual, you have definite goals and ideas on how to reach the two points and still keep a straight line. As your studentbody president and on behalf of the executive officers, I express our desire to be of service to you in reaching your goals and realizing your ideas. Working together, may be understand where we are, where we want to go, and how were to get there, and in so doing create a bigger and better Dixie. Students, we extend to you our go-in- '7 WELCOME. E. Former Dixie President Glenn E. Snow, who is now Assistant Secretary of the NEA was guest speaker at the Dixie High forensic class last Thursday, September 14, at the invitation of class president Randy Wilkinson and class officer Douglas Cox. Mr. Snow spoke on Federal Aid to Education, which is now the current debate topic for the year 1961-6Mr. Snow said that he needed little additional information other than what he had gained in Washington County and in Utah to convince h i m that federal aid was needed to bring schools of the United States up to standard. He cited the instance of Washington County, where schools could not be held the full year nor could teacher pay and school equipment be what it is now if it were not for the equalization program established in Utah. Mr. Snow was influential in creatin'7 the present school program for Utah. The forensics class gained many vital points for their debate program from Mr. Snows talk. He will also send them information from his office in Washington, D C. M s. Pansy L.
