INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATE
Cedarville College in its fifth year of intercol-
legiate debating was represented by eight students:
Affirmative—Ruth Kimble, John Tobias, James An-
derson, and Joseph West. Negative—Justin Hart-
man, Harold Shaw, Harry Wallace, and Donald
Burkert. Mrs. J. W. Ault acted as debate coach.
The question for debate was, Resolved: That Con-
gress should be empowered to override by a two-
thirds vote of both houses decisions of the Supreme
Court declaring actions of Congress unconstitu-
tional.
There were debates scheduled for the early part
of the season, but because of the inclement
weather, they were postponed.
Thus it happened that the Cedarville teams en-
tered the North Manchester Convention without
any previous experience. Upon examining our
schedule after registering in North Manchester, we
found that we were to debate all large colleges
and universities since Cedarville, because of pre-
vious records, is entered in Class A. Nothing
daunted by the size of the universities represented
by their opponents, the Cedarville teams put forth
their best efforts and as a result of the debates
scheduled, Cedarville defeated Chicago Univer-
sity, North Manchester, and Evansville.
After the Convention, Cedarville met Rio
Grande with whom we divided the victory —the
Affirmative losing and the Negative winning. The
season closed with two non-decision debates with
Dayton University.
This year the squad loses Donald Burkert and
Joseph West. With six members remaining, we
are hoping for another successful year during
1936-37.
