PRAIRIE
DEBATERS WIN
LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL TEAM ELM
b MATED FROM INTER ScHOL-
ASTIC CONTEST

| Long Prairie high schools debat-
ing team defeated the local high school
/ Team mere inulsuay evening OF last
week, by a score OF 2 to l, thereby
eliminating Little Fails in the dls1rlct
| championship contest and a chance for
the state title. George Fortier, Spen-
scented Jnf local n4s4 school and MISS
f'ern Moore, and lta1ph Larson and
Miss Katherine Gruber constituted the
Long Pralrle team. The subject was
! RESOLVED, that the United States
Government Should Regulate by Direct
Control the Price of Coal Little
E'alis had the affirmative. -..
George Fortier spoke first. He con-
tended that government regulation of
the price through direct control would
benefit the CONSUMER. as the middle
man would be limited to a reasonable
profit. He gave figures to show that
the difference. between the cost Of the
coal az the mine and the price the con-
suhaer pays is unreasonable.
Miss fern Moore for the negative
said that government control of coal
prices at this time would tend. to upset
! We whole, economic problem. She cited
Germany and England as countries
where this pran had been tried out and
failed. She contended that in a de-
mocracy the people would have a right
to do as they Akc.
Spencer Nelson, next speaker for the
affirmative, held that government con-
troll Of coal prices would do away with
speculation and break up the coal
trust. He pointed out that this COM
modify is the key to all industry and
should be available at reasonable
price.
Ralph Larson, for the negative, dis
cussed the subject from the standpoint
Of supply and demand, contending that
this has beeu the basis Of prices all
through time and it should continue SO.
!! He expressed the belief that the gov
! eminent is sufficiently burdcned with
work now and should not. be asked to
also shoulder this job. Regulation OF
! the price Of coal would lead TO the reg
! uatlon of the price of all commodities,
he said.
| Eugene LaFond, last speaker for the
| affirmative, SAID that government con
troll Of local prices could be handled
very satisfactorily. One plan, he said,
| would be to divide the country into
zones, as in the case of parcel post,
the consumer to pay the cost of the
coal at the mine plus transportation
charges.
Miss Grubcr was the third speaker
for the negative. She said that govern
ment regulation would result in poll
teal graft and trouble with the min
ers. She also expressed the belief that
it would tend to draw capital away
from this industry.
The debate closed with brief rebuff
tails. Many local people who heard
the debate considered the rebuttal ar
gunlcnts Of the. local team better than
the visitors as the members of the
local team gave q verbal rehuttal,
whereas the visitors confined theirs to
ones very apparently prepared i'll ad-
vance, and which consequently touched
on arguments made by the affirmative
side very little.

CAR LEFT IN MANS YARD Is
CALLED FOR LATER

VIM. Hammond, Third street north
east, was surprised the other morning
upon arising to discover a Buick five
passenger car parked in his yard. It
being only a week before Christmas
he thought that perhap it was a
Christmas present left there by Santa
Claus. An investigation showed that
the driver Of the car had experienced
trouble in steering it after getting on
to the lawn and had bumped into a
tree. Before leaving the car. the own
cr drained the water from the radiator,
so it was evident from this that he
intended to return for his car, and
sure enough he did. And he happened
to be local man.

LOSE TO ST. JOHNS In SNA.PPY
GAME.

On Saturday, the local high school
quint, seven subs and Coach Dunphy
motored to Collegeville, where they
played st. John s university that after
noon. The game was fast and rough
one and while Little Falls lost by a
score Of % to II, there was nothing
one-sided about the contest and in fact
the local boys scored one point more
than their opponents in the second
half
Little Falls seemed unable to. locate
itself in the first half, as the college
boys played a different game than the
local boys were accUstol ,vu u. +
made the only two field goals for Little
Falls in the first half. Bastien made
two points on fouls and Crosse one.
In the second half, Little Falls en-
ployed the same tactics as their OPP
ponents and the scoring in. that half
was nip and tuck. The lineup Of the
st. John s aggregation was completely
changed in the beginning of the first
half but the coach soon put the regu-
lars back in again. Kiewel made two
field baskets in the second half, Lasky
one and Crosse one. Fortier made two
points on free throws. Ryan, Decker,
Tierney and Haynes each made one
field basket in this half.
Ryan was the main pont-gcttcr for
the college quint in the first half
with four baskets. VAIL and Decker
made two each and McNally one and
Decker made one point on free throw.
The local boys report fine treatment
at the hands Of the college authorities.
They were treated to supper before re-
turning home.
