The debate trophy has a dark brown plastic base with metal shapes featured as decoration. The top of the trophy features a female statuette with wings holding a wreath above her head with both hands. The base has five staggered levels in varying shapes which taper off to form the podium where the metal figurine stands. There is a metal plaque on the level below the statuette which reads, [BAYLOR FORENSIC/JR WOMEN/ORATORY/'67]. In front of the plaque is a small metal eagle figure. A level below and to the right and left of the eagle are metal stars. The trophy base is hollow, with a manufacturer's mark on the hollow inside. The manufacturer's mark reads, [A. C. REHBERGER CO./TROPHIES/REH/CRAFT/AWARDS/CHICAGO 14, ILL.].
