Undergraduate opinion on whether or not a newspaper should be restricted in the publication of news will be determined this evening, when the Harvard Debating Union holds the fourth of its series of regular bi-weekly meetings in the Living Room of the Union at 7.30 o'clock. The question is: "Resolved. That this house believes that newspapers should be restrained by legislative enactment from publishing murder trials and sex cases."
The principal speaker of the evening will be E. E. Whiting '97, of the Boston Herald. Mr. Whiting has been prominent in the newspaper field for a number of years and at present conducts Whiting's Column. He will uphold the negative side of the discussion, supported by R. A. Stout '29 of the CRIMSON. Ira Sherman 3L, will discuss the legal aspect of the problem as an affirmative speaker, together with Morison Sharp '29. The student speeches will be from 10 to 15 minutes in length.
An open forum will follow the regular debate, in which all members of the University are invited to participate.
