Meet Wednesday Nights.

Every Wednesday night the members
OF the four boys debating clubs meet
At the high school building There are
about thirty members in each club The
evenings are passed IN research and
debate work.
Despite the bad weather last night
there was a good attendance III all the
clubs,
1t is customary for the clubs to have
what is known as the "intcr-olub de
bate contest" each fall preceding the
inter school debate session. The club
winning the debate receives for one
year what IS known a. the JeiicrSonian
cup. a loving cup offered by the Jetier-
sonian Debating society. The club
holding the cup for three years, not
necessarily SucccSsyely, gets the cup
as permanent possession.
The Forum and the Jeffetsonlan De-
batting societies have held the cup for
two years If either of those clubs win
the cup this fall it becomes their per
manent possession.
Subject Not Chosen.
Most OF the clubs lost heavily IN dc
batting material through graduation last
year but the larger number have men
who have been on inter club debates IN
previous years. The question for the
debate has not been decided upon as
vet. but the clubs are preparing ellml-
nation contests for their members so
that no time will be lost when the
question IS announced The clubs arc
full of pep" and good season is

DRAFT REALLY "SELECTIYE"

AS announced by Provost Marshal General CroWder
and approved by the President the next draft will be
what the first draft was not namely Seectve the true
sense I'm the first draft 10 per cent of the registration
was taken bv lottery Out of this 10 per cent the Seec
lions were made
The next draft will not be a lottery 1t will take the
men who can best be spared for the second line and these
will be taken from all the remaining 90 per cent not from
10 per cent of them This principle it is asserted should
have been applied to the first draft that to say the men
who could best be spared should have been selected from
the entire registration to go first and then have other
cassihcaons of those who should go second third and
later
The new plan provides for this principle Registered
men will be classified in horizontal columns according to
the question of dependency, and in vertical columns &C
cordng to their need i'm war industry Those included IN
the first call viii be those who stand first in both respects
that is those having no dependents all and belonging
to occupations least imperative for the war In the next
line will be those having few or remote dependents and
engaged in occupations one degree nearer to war neces
ties In the last list viii be those having numerous and
helpless dependents and engaged i'm occupations mpera
tive to the prosecution of the
General Crowder with the presidents approval, has
published statement that system will be provided which
viii classify each of the 100000 men who have not
yet been indicted into military service and give him his
place in the national scheme of defense Each man will
be required to give information of character which will
definitely fix his economic worth as compared with his fell
low registrants.
The method of obtaining this information is through
QuestiOnare'-a series of questions calculated to pro-
duce the information required This document will be
mailed to every regsant not now in service on date to
be fixed When the QUESTIONABLE is filled in and returned
the local boards will examine each document and assign
each regiStrant to one of five classes.
These classes viii be based ON every conceivable con-
dition from the family and occupaona standpoint that
should be properly advanced by man desiring to be ex-
cused from military duty, The right to appeal from the
classification made by local boards retained and the pro

ENEMY MUSICIANS.

From an 1,8OO-word dissertation sent out by The Vigilantes we gather, after careful reading, that it intends to say the following: That
 Americans need not wax uncom- fortable under the declaration of that eminent alien-enemy violinist, Fritz Kreisler, that he will no longer fiddle for Americans.
 Charges of chauvinism, narrowness and injustice hurled against us by Kreisler's press agents and friends can be weighed down by citing facts relating to alien musicians resident in Germany.
 In this country today is a wonder ful Russian violinist by the name of Heifetz. He was playing in Berlin when the war broke out and had to spend two years in an internment camp.
 Henri Marteau, a Frenchman, who succeeded Joseph Joachim as head of the Berlin Hochschule, lost his posi- tion when the war broke out and was informed.
 Gabrilowitch, the great pianist, and his American wife, daughter of Mark Twain-both pronouncedly pro-Ger- man in their sympathies-were resi- dents of Munich when the war came and were arrested. They obtained lib- erty only with great difficulty.
 Adolph Brodsky, Russian violinst, a great favorite in Vienna before the war, was there on visit when the clouds broke in 1914. He applied for permission to return to England, where he was president of the Man chester College of Music, but instead was interned in Hungary. He was past 60 and only the utmost influence of his friends succeeded in obtaining permission to his wife to live with him in the internment camp. Ameri- can musicians in great numbers sign ed a petition for Brodsky's release, and lot of proG German musicians in this country refused to sign the peti- tion.
 Karl Muck, distinguished conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, still holds his place under the Prus- sian government and is looking for ward to 2 Prussian pension for his old age. But imagine an American con- ductor at present in Berlin or Vienna Albert Spaulding, Roderick White and other American musicians are sacrificing their careers and risking their lives for America.
