102 The TRAIL S. I. C. Debate N unusually enthusiastic group of students attended the first d b t t' ll d b C 11 H f 1' ' .,., VI e a e mee ing ca e y oac ayman .or a pre iminary E study of the Plumb Plan. From their number the SIX debaters V for the team were chosen by the coach. The team prepared with a do or die determination to meet Albion at Albion and Gooding at Caldwell, the afiirmative team traveling in each case. On March 17 the question Resolved: That the United States should adopt the Plumb Plan was debated in each of the five schools in the Con- ference. Fay Tolles, Justin Conrad and James Hawkes received a two to one decision over the Gooding team. Everyone was pleased with the victory but our joy knew no bounds the next day when we learned that Corwin Hinshaw, Russell Kenney and Ezra Hinshaw had also won at Albion. Since no other school in the Conference won two debates, the C. of I. won back the large loving cup which is awarded to the winning school each year. Mrs. Logue of Gooding presented the cup to Coach Hayman in chapel a few weeks later. With the exception of one year the cup has been in the possession of the C. of I. ever since its purchase, and it is the avowed purpose of Coach Hayman and all prospective debaters to keep it here.
