NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Coolidge Debating Prize, plum of the Freshman debating season, went to John W. Sullivan '43, after a closely contested tournament last Friday, consisting of individual speeches on freedom of speech.

The contestants, selected from a large number of candidates in a preliminary tournament on Wednesday, will argue in the H. Y. P. debate on Saturday.

The team chosen to go to Princeton consists of Harold M. Bailin, John E. de Valpine, and Richard L. Weinberg. Abram J. Chaynes, Maurice Friedman, and John W. Sullivan will oppose Yale at Cambridge, while Victor M. Kumin, and Donald F. Waterman will serve as alternates.
