FINE SPEAKERS ALL
Eight U. Of M. Orators Will Appear
in the Pillsbury Contest To-
morrow Evening.
The Event Will Be Of General In.
4 terest and the Public -.
Is Invited. ...

The oratorical contest for the John S.
Pillsbury prizes Of SITS will take place
In tho University chapel. Library Hall, to-
morrow evening. March 20, at 8 o'clock.
It is an event Of public interest and a
large attendance Of townspeople is ex
pected.s A small admission fee will be
charged.
The vigorous stimulus of this splendid
prize, supplemented by the generous
prizes of W. H. Dunwoody and the late
r. H. Peavey has been rapidly placing
oratory at the university on higher
plane. These material prizes enable many
of the best debaters and orators who are
self supporting. to dismiss the bread and
butter question for half a year and devote
extra time to literary work. Conse-
quently more men and more able men are
getting in line for these contests than ever
before. In years past there have gen.
orally been two or three good orators in
the contest but this year they are all
good. s.,. a~}.s.r
Competition. though friendly, is becom-
ing intense. Several of the speeches have
been in process Of preparation for a year
and they are very creditable specimens of
the college oration. They have already
been sifted from two preliminary contests
in thought and delivery. -Four of the
speakers are taken from the "interso-
ciety'' contest to which the eight literary
societies send representatives and four
from an open contest conventionally, called
the 'free-for- ALL"
1t is noticeable this year that most OF
the speakers have. passed the amateur
stage. Indeed most of them have haG
considerable experience in public speaking
of one kind or another. Mr.. Diman is q
senior law student. He attended Brook
ings college, S. D.: where he won loca
championship in that state two of those
years. Two years ago he won second place
in the Pillsbury contest. .. ,.. All u.
Messrs. Thomson and Bushfield are botl
speakers of experience and have victorie:
to their credit and Mr.. Bushfleld is en-
rolled with the middle laws. ( 49, f@.
Mr.. Layne is a senior academic, junior
law and business manager of the Minneso
ia. Daily. Last year he won second prize
In the Pillsbury contest and has beer
prominent in other forensic battles.
Mr.. Steenson. senior academic ant
Junior law, has been in the Pillsbury con
test twice before and took a high plac
