The Final Debate Other Winners The Sorosis literary society at the college won the seventh and last of the debates in the series which took dace in the chapel . Thursday eve ning, and as a result will hold the Gatch cupfor the college " year of 1905-06. Much interest appeared to be centered in the outcome, and a large audience filled the chapel. The question was, "What is Am bition? "TisV Glorious Cheat." The expression is a line from thel well known poem on the subject of ambition by N. P. Willis. The Utopians had the affirmative, and their speakers were. Miss Parsons, Miss Wright and Miss Hill. They contended that ambition leads the individual on' to dazzling heights and that when he reaches the, goal what he really finds there is empti ness; hollo wness and disappoint ment. They declared' selfishness to be the controlling, in fact the only motive in ambition and cited many instances in history in proof of their contention. . The Sorosis team was Miss Ag nes Sweek, Miss Pauline Davis and Miss Edna Irvine. " They held that a mind in which there is no am bition to be unbalanced, and such a mind is certain, if not led upward to be controlled by abject passions, and maintained that nations whose people are ambitious are leading nations of the world. They sought to prove that all great discoveries and inventions and the civilization . these have promoted, are the re sult of ambition. They argued' -that nations or trbes whose people are unambitious are without prog . ress or civilization, citing China, the Hindoos and others. The judges were E. E. Wilson, Mrs. Horner and Major Frank Ed wards. The decision was unanim ous, features 01 tne program were a vocal solo by Mrs. H. W. Laughlin, and an instrumental so lo by Miss Inez Colvig. There are three inscriptions on the trophy. One is ' ' Amicitias, 1902-3; " another "Pienans, 1903- 04" and the , third, "Feronians, 1904-5." Ihese inscripticns give tie name of the, society that has won the cup and the year , for which that society has held it. The new inscription will be "Sorosis, 1905-6." , - the last chapel. ; ; j R.

A game' has been scheduled with the University of California, to be played at Berkeley on an October date, not yet, aW obvious reasons made public--$' Manager Fred Stimson is 'alsd.Scjonsidering the question of cfre'duling the big game of the year- twith the .'Univer sity of Washing-ton at Seattle, That of course is the Thanksgiving date. The date has been offered the OAC men, and negotiations looking to the signing of contracts are in progress. Last year Wash ington had the University of Cal ifornia for its Thanksgiving d.y atti action. It is the turn of the Washingtonians. to come to Cor- vallis, but if terms to suit can be arranged Manager Stimson may take "his mentor the final game of the season to the Evergreen state. The Multnomath Athletic Club is also a candidate for a game wifh Steckle's men, but as yet no con tract has been signed. Manager Stimson refuses to make, any more Christmas games on account of the long period of training in which it keeps the men, which is ' neither satisfactory to the men nor to the faculty, The Washington State College at Pullman also wants to come to Corvallis for a game, but so far no Valley team has been found to stand for half their , ex penses and on that account a con tract with the Washington College men is hanging fire.

The students took ad vantage of the occasion to give an ovation to President Gatch. In the course of a brief address. Dr. Withy combe paid the president a high personal tribute, referring in glow ing terms to the great growth of the college in numbers and effi ciency under President Gatch' s administration. ' The greater part 01 the creait ior tne cnangea con ditions, he declared was due to the work of .the president. . He closed a beautiful tribute to the president s character by wishing for the col lege many more years of con tinued growth and constantly ex panding greatness under his wise administration . A big burst, of a p- plause, long continued, closed the impressive scent, which was renew ed shortly afterward with increas ed vigor when Mark McCallister stepped to the edge of .the platform and proposed nine Rahs for Pres ident Gatch. Five hundred lusty lunged 1 ads and lasses, standi: g en mass joined in a storm ot col lege 3rells that threatened to raise the roof, and which when the yells ceased was turned into . another burst of applause by hand clapping. The testimonial was an enthusiasm tic one, for President Gatch is widely popular " with the student body. Maccabee Growth. The Maccabees of Corvallis are out after new members this month and the way the applications are coming in the degree team will have its hands full.-- It is the in tention of the members here to put in 50 additions and it is needless to say they will do it.
