NEWTON ALUMNI DEBATE

In a closely contested and well spoken contest, C. E. Snow won the Newton Alumni Prize for extemporaneous debate. D. B. O'Connor was awarded second prize.

The question was: "Resolved: that any bona fide student under twenty-four years of age, who has completed one year's work in any American college, should not be debarred from representing that college in athletics on account of his previously having received compensation for athletic activity."

At the close of the debate after the award of prizes the judges urged upon the College and the classes to come, greater interest and hotter competition in this important contest. Certainly the value of such an institution is evident and it should be heartily supported by the student body.
