ELIOT MEETS DUDLEY FOR DEBATE TONIGHT

Dean Phelps and Finley Captain Teams; Classics vs. Social Sciences Subject of Discussion

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Tonight in the Dudley House Common Room at 7:30 o'clock Eliot House meets the Commuters in the fourth week of the inter-House debating season. The subject is: "Reseolved, That Harvard should place more emphasis on the Classics and less on the Social Sciences."

The subject is in keeping with the decision of the Debating Council officers to stress non-political subjects in inter-House debating.

The Eliot team, taking the affirmative, is led by John H. Finley '25, assistant professor of Classics, and includes Archie B. Roosevelt, Jr. '40, and Donald H. Davidson '39. The negative side is composed of Dean of Records Reginald H. Phelps, associate of Dudley Hall, Lloyd G. Butterfield '40 and Morris Yarosh '41. This is the second time this year that Eliot has debated, having lost its first match to Winthrop. The Commuter team is debating for the first time.
