Night Editors This Issue— Fern Baker Beth Salway Cowboy Debaters (Linf'ield Review) rJ'MIAT the present loss of in terest in, debating is due to the lack of entertaining and in forming abilities on the pari of college speakers- is the opinion of •). Mack Swigert, president of 1 lx* Harvard University De bating council. He believes tlial the day of decisions is gone and that the time has come when the college debater must pre sent speeches which are capable of drawing the interest of an audience because of its inform ational and entertaining quali ties. The novelty of winning has worn off in most schools, and victory alone is li/itlly a suffi cient inducement for atten dance at a debate, he contends. The “win” spirit has subsi dized the content of the debate and as a result the speakers have centered their energies on material that will bewilder their judges into a decision over their opponents while the meagre audience sits hard by attempting to solve some of the arguments presented. lu his efforts to prove his point, lve cites the ease of one southern college which sends a team on a tour dressed in na tive, cow-puncher ' costume— “boots,, spurs, chaps, ten gal lon hat and all.” Following the debate they present “twenty to thirty minutes of clean enter tainment” consisting of “cow boy ballads, cow-boy stories, stories of the western country in which they live, and like items.” These movements on the part of some, far-seeing debate man agers and directors may have (he desired effect of bringing the present waning debate back to somewhere near its former status among college students. There is little doubt,.that some effort must be made at some angle to return this interest in college dehate for tin* audi ences present at debates nowa days, leave little doubt but that something must he done else debate be relegated to a place in the past. l*luy Directin' - Socks Tall Men, Short Ones " VV an toil.: Men for soldiers, cour tiers, nail populace in senior piny Ml' I Were King’."

A Satire : By Wilfred BroWta BOOK VI (Continued) 'When Student had dflnd with his meditation, lie arose up from the stone whereon he sat and bettooK himself on his way. And presently, after a diligent seai-eh, he once again met with Promisor, the lieu tenant of the party of Debater, who was a candidate for the office of the presidency of the council of the Happy Land of Collegia. Promisor, upon ‘ seeing Student, smiled upon him warmly, saying: PROMISOR: Greetings to thee, fellow pilgrim. And hast thou made up thy mind as to whether thou sha\t support our brother Debater for the office of th* presidency of the council of the land, which shall shortly bo vacated by the present incumbent STUDENT: Yea, I have decided to give my support unto Debater, although in so doing I shall oppose the policies of the Gamma guild, with which I am affiliated. PROMISOR: Let. not thy heart be troubled, friend Student. It is better to be bodily tormented than to suffer from a troubled, conscience, which should surely be the case shouldst thou cast thy vote for the party of Halfback, the .party which cuileth itself Independent. STUDENT: Yea. 1 am voting ac cording to ray conscience, and 1 have found that the adherents of the In dependent party are utterly perfidi ous by nature. Politicio, the lieu tenant of Halfback, promised unto me the office Qf supervising the clearing of the meadow of debris following the great banquet; which shall be held there one year hence should I give unto him my support, and later I found that he promised that same position to none less than five other persons. PROMISOR: That is in verity the nature of the adherents of the in dependent party. However, give unto us thy support, and thou shalt have the position of supervising the waxing of the floor in preparation for Hie grand ball which shall be hold one year hence. STUDENT: I thank thee, Prom isor, and I shall give thee my most hearty support. PROMISOR.: Excellent. And as thy first duty I shall -ask thee to post these placards in prominent places along the wayside. And so saying, Promisor gave un to Student a great quantity of pla cards, which bore, in effect, this lettering: The Independent Party, What Is It? Halfback, Theta; Poli ticio, Sigma—and so the names of all the members of the Independent ticket, showing them all to be mem 'Kiiaffliaa^iraiiDiBfigisiBaiiaiBfiiiiMnafiaKBainiiaiigiigiBinHiaininajHipanaKatraijgji t^MaigEEMEMeilSlDillSJcaiSlElJEiCilCiltaCflEIIl New Wash Silk Sleeveless Dresses Ensembles Also “Mop Hats ’ Everwear Hosiery Co-Ed Dress Shop " House of Voutll” Tiffany Bldg. ° O Floating University For Men and Women Travelling by land and sea around the globe.

Student took the placards and con tinued along the way, sticking one here and one there as he traveled. But he had traveled not far when he met with Politk-io and a number of the other adherents of the Inde pendent party. Behold, shouteth Politieio, and the group closed in upon Student. One person seized Student by the hair i f his head and another tripped his feet so that he went down in a heap upon the ground. One person snatched the remaining placards from him and tore them into shreds, and the whole of the group leaped in turn up and down upon the pros trate Student. But about this time there ap peared on the scene Promisor and a number of the adherents of the party, of Debater. Promisor and his col leagues rushed in upon the group which were abusing Student and met them full force. Whereupon en sued one of the most horrible battles in the history of the Happy Laud of Collegia. Ami Student meanwhile, lay pros trate upon the ground underneath the mob of Independents and others who fought over him. Now one trod upon his ear, now another upon his liose, and now another upon his abdomen. Presently Promisor and his aides overcame Politicio and his, and the Independents retreated in great dis order down the road. Promisor came unto Student and assisted him to his feet. Student found that none of his bones were broken, but he was bruised horribly, and was scarcely able to stand upoh his feet. PROMISOR: Accept my congratu lation, friend Student. Thou sliow est the proper spirit, the spirit of fair play and of righteousness for which the party of Debater ever standeth. STUDENT: I scarcely thought that Politicio and the other adher ents of the Independent party were so inclined to violence. PROMISOR: The adherents of the Independent party arc by nature totally evil and perfidious. But trust us, Student. We will deal with thee fairly and honorably. STUDENT: I thank thee heartily, friend Promisor. Thou mayest de pend upon me. (To Be Continued) By OSBORNE HOLLAND Something unusually, good in si lent drama is offered by fhe Colon ial theater this week with “Thu Trail of '08,” an epic of the Klon dike gold rush. Real Alaskan scenes have been spirited to Hollywood to furnish awe-inspiring background for a locale that presents all that can be desired- in the way of thrills, romance and adventure. Dolores Del Rio and Ralph Forbes are excellent ly east as the leads and although they overplay their roles, a better team would be hard to find. Actions abounds in “The Trail of ’98” and the director spares no op portunity to make tin- audience lose its breath. A few old timers from the bygone wild west drama have been injected into the production to give it a touch of reality and Harry Carey and George Cooper give amplo support to the stars. But the direc tor made the big mistake common to most directors, that of overplay ing tnc scenery, and evidently for got that audiences don’t pay to go on scenic excursions.
