Sullivan '33, President of the Debating Council. The speakers for Yale will be J. W. Tilson, Jr., Franklin Ferriss, and Roger Tubby.
The nine final speakers were chosen from a group of 15 men who were picked in tryouts last week. Three of the Harvard speakers participated in the debate with Yale last spring on the same subject.
