ORLOFF IS PRESIDENT OF DEBATING COUNCIL
Succeeds Neal: Pattee, Beren, Clark Also Chosen: Corporation Ruling on Funds Discussed.
Jack S. Orloff '41 was elected President of the Debating Council, succeeding Phil C. Neal '40 at a meeting in Adams House last night.
Under discussion after the officers were selected was the Corporation's recent decision barring the use of the Coolidge fund for the Debating Council's expenses. That decision has obliged the Council to find new sources of income for the 1940 season, or shut up shop.
Other officers chosen were James J. Pattee '41, Vice President: Stauley O Beren '41 Secretary; and Grenville Clark. Jr. '41 Treasurer. Grenville Clark Sr. '08, is a member of the Corporation.
Orloff has been secretary of the Council during the past year. Pattes directed the Freeman debaters and Beren managed the Inter-House Debating program which the Council sponsors.
