The second inter-society debate
in the contest at the O A C for the
Gatch cup, took place between
teams representing the Amicitias
and the Jeffersonians, at the college
chapel Saturday night. Byram
Mayueld, Jb red bteiwer and Jldgar
Tulley supported the affirmative of
the question, "Kesolved, Jnat or
ganized labor is a greater menace
to the commonwealth than organ
ized capital," while J. E. JohnsoD,
Guy Moore and Albert Hall upheld
the negative. The debate was spir
ited and no set speeches were made.
The judges decided in favor of the
affirmative. These contests are
proving of considerable interest and
will, no doubt, be of great profat to
those taking part in them, failure
previously to agree upon definition
of terms used in the subject of the
debate led to some confusion m bat'
urday night's contest; and lack of
systematic arrangement of argu
