test with the Sioux City High school. The
Philomathlan Literary. society Of the Coun-
Gil Bluffs High school has selected Charles
Campbell and Alfred Hanchett as its rep

the possibility OF any OF the other as

an opportunity to appear on the team de-
spite the fact that Principal Ensign ruled
that a preliminary debate should be held
to select the contestants. Campbell had
refused to enter the preliminary debate,
holding that as he was one Of the repre-
