Parma Boy In
Winning Team

"That boards of arbitration
with compulsory powers should
he established TO settle labor
disputes" was decided in the af-
firmative ON Friday at the Col
lege OF Idaho, when the team
from the local Institution, argu-
ing for the affirmative, defeated
the representatives from the
Academy of Idaho at Pocatello.
The winning team was composed
OF Walter Kerrick, Lee Tappan
and Jessie Ragsdale, and their
opponents we're Messrs. Clifford,
West aud Stratfurd. The deci-
sion of the judges was unani-
nous.
A telegram was received Sat-
urday night by President Boone
which contained the gratifying
news that the college debaters
had defeated the strong Albion
debaters on their home territory.
This means that the champion
ship is retained by the Caldwell
students for the third successive
year, and brings the champion
ship cup to the college of Idaho.
The winning team was Messrs.
Roscoe Turner, William Runci-
man and Haven Goodrich.
Parma may feel proud OF her
representative on the debating
team, as Mr.. Kerrick is said to
be one of the most finished,
fluent and convincing speakers
who has ever contended in debate
before an Idaho student body.
