The Red Cat ll.'X'l' sense of college humor which somebody said surpasses by far the lnnnor of the outside world abounds in a profusion of praiseworthy material on the campus of Western Reserve University, as is apparent even to the layman after a glance through the Red Cat, humor magazine. Real- . 7 ization of that now well-known fact came , ' three years ago by a small group of interested 5 7f',,f' students, and by the dint of hard labor they - published the tirst Red Cat. 'l'hus born a A R' wee kitten in the fall of 1923, Red Cat showed promise of growing into a line, blue-ribbon cat from the first. ,ller growth has been re- markable, so that now she is a large, con- tented, ctinstant-purring cat, the pet of the University. Red t'at's deserved success is noteworthy. tirculation has already passed the two-thou- sand-copy mark. Art and humor originating in Red Cat have been found in the movies and in a great mnnber of the better lunnor magazines of the country. Exchanges have been made with such comics as those published by llarvard. Princeton, llartmouth, XVasliington, Gettysburg, Massachusetts Institute ot' Tech- nology, Miami, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Likewise special contract arrange- ments have been made with some of the national humor magazines such as College llumor. Still again the Red Cat has been placed on many news stands for sale to the public. Thus it can readily be seen that the popularity of the magazine is widespread, and bids fair to increase in the years to come. This year saw the heydey of Red L'at's existence. The stall' was augmented and was selected with the greatest consideration for the success ot' the publica- tion. More and better art work, keener and crisper humor, and larger and wider circulation resulted. XYorking under the handicap of a lack of headquarters, the editors deserve much credit for the product of their labors. An innovation in the distribution and subscription procedure was inaugurated this year. Subscription for the four issues published during the school year was ollered for the price of three issues, thereby saving the subscribers' money and the business board's time and ellort. Individual sales and distribution were accom- plished by representatives at' the various colleges of the University. Keys were awarded to those members of the stall' whose work for Red Cat merited such recognition. Z6

The Debate Association .HE debate squad participated in 15 inter-col- legiate debates during the season 1925-26, and also held a number of intra-team discussions before lodges and other associations in the city. .Four propositions were debated. The split-team debates were judged by the new plan which was inaugurated last season. This method allows the decision to be given t-o the side presenting the most ettective argument, and minimizes favoritism for personalities or colleges. Robert Critchtield was again the outstanding forensic representative of Reserve. Coach Iloward S. Woodwgzd' and Assistant Coach Barclay S. l.eathem have consistently developed teams that rate with the best in the country. The deci- sion is not the most important part of an encounter, but if it were the University could look to its debate teams for more victories than it could expect from any other source. l Seven men of the squad graduate this year. They are: .lohn N. Adams, XYilliam il-l. Hlack, l.. Robert Critchtield, George R. Kloppman, XY. A. D. Millson, Albert VV. Rader and Robert IJ. Templeman. PRCJl'OSl'I'lt7NS lJlEHATliD 1.
