Gorman Wins Trophy, First in M.I.T. Debate

Gerald W. Gorman '54 won the trophy as the outstanding negative debater in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Invitational Debate Tournament this weekend. Twenty-four New England colleges with 124 entries competed for the individual honors.

Through a total of four hours of discussion during Friday and Saturday, Gorman proved that he could argue the negative to, "Resolved: That the federal government should adopt a permanent program of price and wage controls" better than any of the remaining sixty two men who took the negative side.
