WOMAN DEBATER
TO APPEAR HERE
Miss Lundstrom VIII Represent
Bethany in Contest With
Augustana.

Bethany college will send a young
woman on it's debating team against
Augustana this year. This startling
intelligence to the local orators came
yesterday afternoon with the Bethany
Messenger, official student organ of
the Kansas college. The name of the
fair debater is Miss Ingeborg Sund-
strom, and she is said to possess more
than the usual gift of her sex in han
ding the language. in the English
oratorical contest at Bethany this
year she took second honors, being
the only coed who competed against
the men. She has also been awarded
the Kansas university scholarship for
highest standing in the senior class
at Bethany.
That Bethany is stalking its hopes
on Miss Sundstrom's talking abilities
appears from the tone of the Messen-
ger. 1t says:
This is the first time that a coed
has ever represented Bethany in the
Augustana debate. 1t remains TO be
seen if the Augustana debaters can
argue with a woman"
THE other Bethany representatives
will be w. A. Erickson and Arthur
Jefferson both seniors. Martin Sven
son a junior, will be alternate. Au-
gustana will be represented by Wal
ton Kempe, Arthur Olson and L. E.
Jones. The debate, which will take
place at Augustana May 3, will be
over the following subject: "Resolv-
ed, That uniform system of tolls
should be established for the ships OF
all nations using the Panama canal.
Bethany will argue affirmative, while
Augustana will take the negative
The subject is a timely one, relating.
as it does, to the present agitation for
repeal of the law granting exemption
from canal tolls to American coast
wise vessels.
This will be the fourth annual de
bate with Bethany. Augustana lost
the first contest, but won the last two
The two institutions are striving for
a silver trophy offered by Professor
George H. Ryden of Bethany college
to the college winning three out OF
five debates.
