Moorhead. Pedrick. Pickett. Haines Larrimorc. Cassill, Jordan, Sherlock. Bachman DEBATE Retained: That the nations of the world should agree to prevent the international shipment of arms and munitions. On March 1 the Parsons debate team with their coach, Miss junelle Teeter, went to Iowa City and participated in the Midwest Invitational Tournament which in- cluded some sixty midwest Universities and Colleges. Both the men and the women debaters, debating the munition question, ranked in the upper 25 per cent of the schools entered. This was a high ranking, only two other schools ranking as high. Each team lost only one debate. On March 13 Parsons entered contestants in the State Tournament at Dubuque. When the smoke of the battle had cleared away Parsons had won first in Women's Debate and third in Men's Debate, On March 28 the teams entered the province tournament of Pi Kappa Delta at Cape Guardian, Mo. In this tournament which included Missouri, part of Illinois, and southern Iowa, the women debaters placed third in debate, winning four out of six debates, and the men, while not placing, won three of tive debates. Mr. Pedrick, one of the debaters, was honored by being elected Vice-Governor of the Missouri Province of Pi Kappa Delta. Besides the tournament debates, numerous other debates were held with Iowa Wesleyan, Burlington junior College, Central College, Penn College, Coe College, John Fletcher College, and Donald Cassill, George Haines, Willard Pedrick and Paul Pickett took a tour through northern Missouri in February, debating Kirksville State Teachers, Missouri Valley College, and Central College of Missouri. This closes the most successful debating season at Parsons for some years and much honor is due our debaters and their coach, Miss 'Iunella Teeter.
