galned a well-deserved 2 to 1 decision he re. This time the decision was re· versed, St. Viator College gaining the verdict 2 to 1 a!ter a very close and interesting debate. The next morning t he long jump to Washington, D. C., was begun and the Catholic University was engaged in forensi c combat on Friday, April 22nd. The visit to the Catholic U niversity was made very pleasant by the Alumni of St. Viator

Rev. Charles A. Hart •17 , w ho was a member of the St. Via tor College team !rom 191 3 to 1 g17 arranged this lunch and was chair man of the debate in the evening. The Alumni who attended the lu nc h were, Rev. Charles A. Ha.rt '17, Rev. Fulton J. Shee n , Ph. D., '17, James L . D ou gherty '08, and Paul Cll!tord '24. A lt ho ugh St. Viator Co llege lost the de· cision to the Catholic University 2 to 1 many o! the audience, including many members o! t he !acuity of the U niver· :slty, disse nted from this decisio n and thoug ht the Viatorians had th e better or the debate. Th e following Monday the Viator team invaded Manhattan College, New York, and were royally received and entertained by Brother Thomas, F . S . C., President o! Manhat· tan College. Unfor t unately the quostlon: " Resolved, the Eighteent h Amen d· m ent s hou ld be r e pealed," is not a de·

batable qu estion in th e State ot New York and though mos t ot th e aud1ence were ot the opinion that St. VIator Colle g e had the better of the argument, eve n thou g h on the nega tive side, the j ud ges r endered an adve rse de cls lon . A c lose de ba te was los t to Providence Coll ege at Prov ide nce, Rhode Island, the next evening on the same subject a.nd on the same unfavor a ble s ide ot the qu estion. This ended the debates on Prohibition ques tion to the great relfet or th e debating tea m who f elt that they were aga in st insupe rable odds in dete nding thi s side ot the ques tion In the Easte rn states. The next evening tho ver y able and polished team ot B oston Coll ege w a s met on its home floor on Lhe qu es tion: "Resol ved, that the United States s hould adopt a unl!orrn Marriage and Divorce Law". The Viatorians de· ! e nded the af!1rmatl ve side of th is ques-tion and lost a close decision to the Bos tonia ns . In justice to the Boston Colleg e team It mu s t be sa id that o n the e vening's discussion they deserved the decisio n. Th is was th e first time th e Via tor team had debated this ques· lion a nd th ey w er e n ot quite as sure of themse lves as they had been in the pr e· v ious debates. Boston College entertain ed us royally and did everythinr; In their pow er to make our visit to The Hub pl easant a nd m e morable. Another close debate was lost the next evening, 2 to 1, to Holy Cross College , Worcester, Massachusetts. The Viatorians acquitt· ed the mselves very much better than they did the previous evening in Boston and R ev . John F. X. Murphy, S. J., Coach ot the Holy Cross debating team, was generous enough to say that he thought that we might, without any injustice, have won the decision. N o won13 can describd adeq-ua.-;t-ely -the generous hospitality with which Holy CrOss Col1ege entertained our debaters and the memory of the sumptuous supper served after the \debate tn the leading hotel of Worcester to both debating teams, will Hve long in the memory of our debaters. The last debate ended in a unanimous decision over Un ion College, Scbnec tady, New York, as already related. The members o! the team who made the somewhat trying trip, going through eight debates In t en days, were John W. Stafford '30, James Allen Nolan '29 and J ames T . Connor '27. The alte r · na te was Maurice L. Leclaire ' 28. St. Viator College has every reason to be proud of it s representative debating team thiS year. Every team that W 3.3 met knew tha t it was in a battle. Pleasant relations have been established with a ll these colleges in the East anU it is quite likely that in tuture years many ot them will send debating teams West. The entire intercollegiate debate schedule and results were as follows: Date Apr, 7 Apr. 12 Apr. 19 Apr. 20 Apr. 22 Apr. 25 Apr. 26 Apr. 27 Apr. 28 Apr. 28
