Debaters Hold Trials for Triangular Debate Tonight

Trials for the proposed Spring trip of the Debating Council and a tentative Triangular debate with Yale and Princeton on April 24 will be held at 7.15 o'clock this evening in Phillips Brooks House.

These trials are open to all upperclassmen of the University, and constitute also the preliminary tryouts for the awarding of the Coolidge Debate Prizes. Candidates are expected to prepare a four to five minute speech on any of the subjects to be debated by the council this Spring.

A list of men will be retained tomorrow night for the advance trials, which will be held on April 9. At that time those men who will actually speak in the Triangular debate will be chosen, and the Coolidge Prizes will also be awarded. The Prizes consist of $100 in cash to the best speaker, gold medals to the participants in the Triangular debate, and silver medals to those who are chosen as alternates.
