DEBATING

Dartmouth is to debate against Colgate April 7 on the question: Resolved, That within twenty-one months after the declaration of peace, the United States Congress shall provide legislation for the immediate purchase of all interstate railways and for the continuance of direct governmental control over the operation of their roads. Two teams from each college will argue the question, Dartmouth sending an affirmative team to Springfield, Mass., and a negative team to Albany. The squad at present is made up of the following 12 men: H. B. Childs '19, J. W. McCrillis '19, H. E. Bernkopf '20, H. W. Newell '20, S. B. Gorham '21, H. D. Miller '21, J. L. Sullivan '21, W. B. Wolfe '21, G. E. Brooks '22, R. J. Brown '22, H. H. Cohn '22, and S. Livermore '22. An innovation in the history of debating at Dartmouth is the proposed awarding of insignia to members of the squad.
