Our Debating History The history of the intenwholastic delating contests in the Academy affords much justification in the demand upon the student mind of the department for greater activity in this phase of school life. Within the last six years no more than two interscholastic contests have taken place. One of these took place in the year 1911 with the M Street (now Dunbar) High School, and another in 1912 with Virginia Union. We were losers in the M Street debate but winners in the Virginia Union contest. After 1912 it was decided that oratorical contests should take the place of debates. Oratorical contests continued until 1914. Truly inter ami intru class delates occured spasmodically from time to time, but no real enthusiasm and genuine rivalry were stirred. This year, however, the Dunbar High .School of this city aroused us from our lethargy by challenging us to intellectual combat on the question “Resolved that admission to American Colleges should lie by examination only.’’ Dunbar wrote us a letter stating that they could not debate with us owing to dissension in the ranks of their debating team. Our representatives wore Norman P. Andrews, John Miles, and J. Garland Wood, Seniors. The alternates were Z. Alexander Looby, R. A. Alston, and L. Kennedy McMillan. 23
