HARVARD TO COOPERATE WITH WESTERN RESERVE IN DEBATE

Weird System Planned for Contest in Holden Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Using a combination of the Oxford and Oregon plans of debating, the Harvard orators meet the Western Reserve University speakers at Holden Chapel at 8.15 o'clock this evening. Two Harvard men and one Western Reserve debater will support the negative side of the proposition: "Resolved, That the principle of complete freedom of speech on political and economic grounds is sound" and will be opposed by two Western Reserve men and one Harvard speaker.

The Harvard men participating in the debate are J. K. Hurd '30, A. L. Raffa ocC., and H. A. Wolff '29. The debate will be started with a 20-minute affirmative speech by a Western Reserve man, who will then be crossexamined by Wolff for ten minutes. Hurd will present the negative case in a 20-minute talk and will be questioned by a Western Reserve debater for ten minutes.
