Seven.graduates^ said the ,%ctual choice of a second field did not matter much,.just as long as the prospectiveTeacher had something as a second field.

' Speech and Debate Coach
, Lynne S. Rost.* f
The 'Kansas high school,speech teacher often commits himself to^1 ,muth more than.does the average classroom instructor.^ f,^ addition 'to a full teaching load, the speech teacher^ will^ very^ iliely^ be'^4
responsibility for whichowery few beginning teachers^ have^ had^ any formal training. Depending^ upon^ the^ school^ system,^ those coaching lyesponsibilities could involve seyeral students and^ a^ budget^ df
administrators that omeis prepared to coach if^ he^ majOrej^ in^ speech^ , .or took the few hours reqUired^ by^ the^ stateto^ become^ certified^ to teach publtc speaking. There^ are^ sOreral^ highschool_tpdches^ who 'meet these minimum, requirementho are sincere',^ dedlcated individaals, who work dtlidently t^ their^ coachingresponsibiliti4s.
Through trial and errorthey may ave^ developed^ a^ strong' competitive speech program, but he^ policy^ of^ permitting^ beginning teacbers to complete'thefr teachertraining^ without^ attention..to^ -
obvious/area tut/should be "examined in 'terms of. eacher requirements. To^ satisfy.^ Kansas certification requirements, fifteen semester hours are needed,^ "in such courses as public speaking,discussion^ and^ debate,^ theatre, and oralinterpretatidi."^ The^ most^ obvious^ draw^ atk^ to^ these general requirements is that only fifteenhourt,^ out^ of^ the^ total 1/120 required for graduation, certify a teacher o Apeech..^ As^ a \result, the English teachen particularly in^ the^ smaller^ chool system,who happens to 'have fifteen hours in speeth^ iNfrequently %drafted to teach speech and qoach theinterscholastic^ speech^ events. The other weakness in the certification requtrepents^ is^ that^ si.nce no specific cour s^ are^ required,^ teachers'^ can be^ certified^ to^ teach
. speech havi wired^ absolutely^ no-batkgrnund^ in^ argumentation^ or debate.
