Freshman Debating Club Organized

The Freshman Debating Club organized last evening at a meeting attended by about 70 members. Maurice Suravitz '13 was the first speaker. He dealt with the advantages of debating as compared with those of athletics. Judge A. P. Stone '93 then spoke pointing out the method used at Harvard, that of being direct, and carefully distinguishing between debating and declaiming.

The following officers were then elected: president, J. W. Cook, of Newton Centre; vice-president, S. Lehmayer, of New York City; and secretary-treasurer, S. B. Pfeifer, of Buffalo, N. Y.
