Whitcomb high school was awarded
the decision Monday evening in the de-
bate on the subject of compulsory ar
bitration in industrial disputes, the
team which upheld the negative con
sisting of Miss Eleanor Graham, Wes-
lev H. Durham and Charles Morrill,.
The South Royalton debaters, who
made a very favorable impression by
the manner and matter of their ar
giments, were Bartlett Dewey, Miss
Lois Turner and Robert A. Waterman.
simultaneously a team from Whit
comb, consisting of Harold F. Wilson,
Miss Irene Fletcher and Winston Il.
Durham, debated the same question at
South Royalton, taking the affirmative
side and the decision was awarded to
their opponents. Thus compulsory ar
btration lost at both ends of the in
terscholastic debates, and honors were
easy between two contestants. The

j.. Carmody of the Dartmouth college
debating team, Superintendent G. w.
Patterson of the Randolph school un-
ion and Miss Mary Lawson.
