B. A. c. DEBATERS WIN FROM
DIXIE NORMAL. COLLEGE

- NND0NN ANNehRy tNCiiik Sb NHt
B. A. C. auditorium, between the Dixie
Normal and the b. A. c. College
teams was perhaps the best debate we
have had the privilege of listening to
in southern Utah. The question was:
Resolved that the United States
should adopt compulsory arbitration
to settle all labor disputes" Miss
Watson and Mr.. Paxman of the Dixie
College debated the affirmative side
of the question splendidly, while Miss
Thornton and Mr.. Roche did full us
tice to the negative. The debaters on
the Dixie team deserve high praise
for their excellent delivery, structural
development and almost fawless Eng
fish. We congratulate them on their
efforts and hope to meet them again.
AS for the negative team, they were
on the job every minute and worked
unitedly and conscientiously, building
up strong arguments on rock basis.
The debate was interesting from start
to finish. Arguments, for and against
the question came so fast and so con-
vincingly that the audience was left
in doubt as to the outcome. But the
negative team built up defense that
their opponents failed to break down.
Their points were all well chosen and
carefully worked out and great sus-
pense swayed the audience as they
awaited the decision of the judges.
AS the decision came with-frst vote,
"negative;" second vote, "affirma-
tive;" third vote--"negative," the
! tenseness was broken and the audi
ence was left free to congratulate the
teams. Several musical selections were
rendered and after the debate the re-
mainder of the evening was spent in
dancing. Every one reports having
enjoyed the evening immensely from
eight until twelve.
The debate between the B. A. C. and
the Dixie high school teams was to
have been held the same time as the
college debate, but for various rea-
sons it has been postponed until Sat-
urday night, April 10. Dixie will be
represented by Marion Gates and Ar
thur Crawford, who will defend the
negative side of the question, Ere
solved that the State of Utah should
adopt a graduated income tax for the |
purpose of raising revenue" Rulon
Knell and Enron Jones will uphold
the affirmative
The Domestic Science girls of class
A have finished their individual labor
atory work and are now working on
the serving of meals. They get prac- |
tice in family service, with and with
out a maiden, buffet service, English
service and Russian service At the
end of the year a banquet will be
served. To learn to cook is of value
to any person, but to be merely
good cook is often menace to
family, for that purpose the girls are
putting into practice the building and
serving of menus. Every girl is sup
! posed to take her turn acting as
hostess, where she has to plan the
meals, purchase supplies, figure costs
and arrange all details of service as
well as to provide table entertainment
for the guests. On certain days dur
ing the rest of the term, meals will
be served at private parties from six
to twelve, providing arrangements
are made in time.
April Fool is the day for all fools
to give an exhibition of their talents;
likewise tn e Sophs and Juniors
showed their excellent sportsman
ship by escorting all the teachers to
peanut bust on the B. A. C. Campus.
The b. b. club also showed their abil-
ity to impersonate the different
types of men which characterize
themselves as the noble men of the
eighteenth century.

Tuesday. Their entertainment CON
sisted of a lively program. The num- (
bers were; Cornet solo by Dallas .
Rogers, solo by Isabelle Luke, and
locals from Morgan Rollo. Everyone

tatives of the Senior "bunch" and
were pleased with the musicals and
locals rendered.
