NO MOmECON DEBATE THIS TEAR Forensic Council Seeks Con tract With 0. A. C. and Reed College. Only Three Old Debaters Back; Five More Are Needed. Tryouts Soon. There will be no debate with the Uni versity of Montana this year. A tri angular contract with Heed and O. A. C. will be sought in its place. This was the decision reached by the forensic council at their first meeting in registrar A. K. Tiffany’s office Tuesday. The last contract with Montana, a two year agreement, expired last March, so it was felt that now is the best time to limit all debates to the coast states. Mr. Tiffany explained that all the athletic contests would take place west of the Rockies and the Council agreed that this rule should also apply to debates. Ore gon lost to Montana last year but was victorious in 1915, which leaves the score even. As a substitute for the Montana de bate the forensic manager, Walter Myers, was given authority to negotiate with Reed and O. A. C. for a state tri angle. We have a dual contract with ; O. A. C. Last seemster Reed mude plans for a debate with Oregon but due. i to our heavy schedule the varsity did not see fit to include the Portland school. If a triangular contract is made the state contests will probably take place in January. The question will be of local importance. Besides the state league there are the usual number of contests to take place in the coast league. Our affirmative team will meet Washington here, the negative meeting Stanford at Palo Alto. The date of the coast debates is the fourth Friday in Marsh. Last week manager Myers received a i telegram from the University of Wash ington asking for a women’s debate. The council will let this stand until after the try outs. If the girls making the team wish to meet the University of Washington, plans can be made ac cordingly. The date of the try outs will be set The Varsity Barber Shop The place where the Students go. Bring your Razor in and have it put in good shape. Ask me about it. JOHN McGUIRE, Proprietor.

To the sorrow of the varsity and the joy of all debate aspir ants it is rumored that Niek Jaureguy will nolP debate this year. This leaves only threp old debaters, Walter Myers, Rosalind Bates, and Earl Fleisehman. As there are to be different questions for the state and coast, contests this means that five new members must be chosen at the try outs. Y. M. C. A. TO RAISE $50 Money Will Go to James K. Lyman, For mer Secretary, Now In Asiatic Turkey. Roy Hausler, chairman of the mission ary committee of the campus Y. M. C. A. is starting a campaign to raise $30 to aid in the support of .Tuan'S Kerr Ly man, a former secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who is .at the present time do ing missionary work in the war torn country around Marnsh, Asiatic, Turkey. Mr. Lyman is a graduate of Whitman College where he was prominent in north west football circles. After his grad uation from Whitman in 1007 he came to the University of Oregon wThere he was graduate secretary of the campus Y". M. C. A. In 1010 he resigned and entered Oberlin College and at the con clusion of his theological work at that school he went to Turkey as a mission ary. The missionary field of Mr. Lyman is in the very heart of the district which became infamous through the Armenian massacres. “It is the battle ground of the Russian and Turkish armys and is the spot where a missionary can perhaps do more real good than in any other place in Europe,” stated Hausler, when interviewed. “Other coast colleges support such men and spend far greater sums on them,” continued Hausler, “and it should be a easy matter to secure the neces sary fifty dollars here where there are 900 students.
