ENGLISH DEBATERS DEFEAT DARTMOUTH

Hanover, N. H., October 14, 1925--With the largest crowd that ever attended a debate here present, the Oxford University debating team, composed of H. J. S. Wedderburn, H. V. Floyd-Jones, and R. H. Bernays, won the audience's decision by a two to one margin. No judges' decision was rendered, the debate being held under English rules.

The subject debated was "Resolved that this house favors America's entry into the International Court of Justice."

The University debaters last night held their final meeting before the Oxford encounter, and with the order of their speakers determined upon, will suspend all further preparation for the debate.

In the debate with Oxford tomorrow at Symphony Hall W. D. Chapman '27, president of the Debating Council will lead off for Harvard, his colleagues Barrett Williams '28 and R. S. Fanning 3L following in that order.

Announcement has also been made of the appointment of official tellers for the debate. Mr. J. A. Brannen, second vice-consul for Great Britain in Boston, will represent the English team, while J. W. D. Seymour '17, Secretary to the University for Information, has been made the Harvard representative for the counting of ballots.

Voting Made Easy

Extensive preparations have been made in order that the verdict of the audience may be announced as soon as possible after the close of the speeches.

Ballots are attached to each program, and these will be marked by the audience and immediately collected by the ushers. A large force of assistant tellers will then count the ballots under the supervision of the two officials.

Box office reports indicate that every stat will be taken when the first speaker mounts the platform tomorrow. Tickets are still to be had, especially in the cheaper sections of the house, but the management is preparing to install platform seats in anticipation of an eleventh hour rush.

During their stay in Boston, the Oxford debaters, H. J. S. Wedderburn, H. V. Lloyd-Jones, and R. H. Bernays, will be tendered a reception by the Harvard Club of Boston. The English colony in Boston is also making plans to entertain the visitors, and they will attend in force the debate in Symphony Hall.
