Rio Grande Debaters Prepare For Season
Rio Grande College's debate team begins the 1969 70 season with plans to use a new videotaping and monitor replay system for practice sessions.

Prerecorded tapes from the University of Nebraska Omaha's National Debate Workshop are available to help. Schroeder notes tapes aid self analysis though full tournament filming requires written permission from all teams.
