i Debate A PLACE of some importance has been occupied by debate this year. A semester course was given in argumentation and de- bating, in which great interest was shown. Those participating in debate work draw from it not only invaluable experience, but a knowledge of an unusally interesting and important subject, and are well repaid for their efforts. The question studied in this class was: Resolved, That the United States should immediately recog- nize Soviet Russia. This subject has had great prominence in the United States since the Soviet Government began to make over- tures for recognition. A This question was used at the debate contest on April 24. Six students entered this contest, and two teams were formed to uphold the two sides of the question. The affirmative team consisted of Howard Graybeal, Winston Saunders and Gilbert Howard. The negative was upheld by Rheta Forbis, Velma Har- ris and Leo-nel Gray. The negative team won by unanimous decision of the judges and the three members of this team were chosen to represent the school against Spokane College. Last year's team won the two debates in which they partici- pated and we are expecting equal success for our debaters this vear. WHAT DID HE MEAN I Leonel Gray was 'explaining in English class that Russia tolerates free love. He started by saying, XN'hen one wife's hus- band lives with another husband-no. I mean when one husband's wife lives with another husband's wife--no, doggone it. I mean when the husband of one wife lives with the husband of another wife- Leonel stopped for breath then started again. VVhat I start- ed out to sav was that when one woman's wife lives with another woman's wife-I mean another man's husband-anyway it is not so bad as having one woman's wife living with another wife's women- Prof. Sevy interrupted at this point and suggested that Bunt finish his talk later. Bunt hasn't finished that talk yet. Page Seventy-Four
