Speech Fest Progressing By BOB EDWARDS The debate teams from Hills boro at present hold the lead in the Oregon high school debating1 league tournaments now being held on the University campus. Roseburg, with 3 wins and 1 lossy follows Hillsboro's -1 win and no loss lead, while Medford with 2 wins and' 2 losses is the third team remaining in competition. Teams from Dallas, Bonanza, and Redmond were eliminated in rounds I and II. The tournament is set up so that 3 or 4 losses can be accumulated before a team H eliminated. This plan is used so that schools which must travel long distances have better oppor tunities. Trophy E. E. DeCou, professor of math ematics, founded the Oregon high school debating league in 1907. and provided the first place tro phy which is known as the Uni versity trophy. Two other debate trophies were provided by Burt. Brown Barker, vice-president cf the University.
