Can They Talk Their Way Into Your Pocketbook?
Coral Gables High School's award-winning debate team hopes to go to Pittsburgh, Pa., next month to participate in the National Speech Tournament. Local civic and business leaders are being contacted to raise money to send the six-men debate team to the University of Pittsburgh for the tourney June 19-23. Approximately $900, or $150 each will be needed, according to Richard Schuster, member of the team who lives at 1209 Obispo Ave. Other members are Steve Magida, 2253 SW 34th Ave.; Betsey Warren, 310 Palmwood Lane; Alan Dinsmore, 8121 SW 63rd Ct.; Elliot Zack, 8450 SW 43rd Ter.; Ronald Jacobson, 116 SW 64th Ave.; and Stan Friedberg, 5845 Twin Lakes Dr. Their coach is Mrs. Daphne Yvars. "We've had a very successful year," Schuster said. These successes included winning first place at Emory University; first place in the Miami Beach Forensic Festival and first place in the state tourney held April 15 at Sarasota. Magida and Schuster both placed first in that event and Betsey Warren was first in Girls' extemporaneous speaking. Jacobson was first in boys extemporaneous and Friedberg, first in humorous interpretation.
Dorseys Leave Reluctantly For Their Trip to West
After looking forward to a trip to the West for some months, the Robert D. Dorseys of 635 San Antonio Ave. left on it yesterday (Wednesday), however, they were reluctant to go. The reason is that Mrs. Dorsey has been working hard on her Sunday School class' 9th Annual Wesley Minstrel & Variety Show, originally scheduled for last month but rescheduled to this month. Unfortunately, this was after the Dorseys had already made their trip plans. The show opens next week. The Dorseys will attend an insurance meeting at Portland, Ore., and then visit their daughter, 18-year-old Elizabeth Ann Whitcomb, a freshman at Colorado College in Colorado Springs. They will return in about three weeks.
God's Power
By NEIL WYRICK Palmetto Presbyterian Pastor The next time you have a problem to solve, a duty to do, an experience to endure and you say, "I can't. It's too hard!" Ask yourself this question, "Is it too hard or am I too soft." There is nothing you say you can't do that probably someone has not done, no pain too great that someone else has not endured. Some people seem to have taken graduate courses in the art of counting all things hopeless. There was a man named Henry Ellsworth, onetime director of the Patent Office, who could have taught the course. Soon after he was elected to the office he said he thought it ought to be closed because there was nothing left to invent. He said this before the McCormick reaper, the Colt Revolver, or the Morse telegraph had been thought of. Yet in 1961 there are thousands like Henry who spend their lifetime saying, "It can't be done. I can't do it. It's too hard. The law hath not been dead, though it hath slept. - Shakespeare.
Giblin Case Going Back To Court
The Florida Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal by City Attorney Ted Semple on the city's attempt to get former Circuit Court Judge Vincent Giblin in Municipal Court on charges of disobeying and interferring with a police officer. A lower court had denied the city the right to try Giblin on the charges stemming from a Jan. 26, 1959 traffic case involving his wife, Virginia. This suit is separate from the many that have been filed by the former judge and his wife. The District Court of Appeal recently reversed a lower court decision awarding Mrs. Giblin $34,000 damages and her attorneys have appealed that case to the Florida Supreme Court.
