H-Y-P DEBATES END IN TIE; NEW DEAL UPHELD

Beren and Cherington Win Coolidges; Harvard Club Host as Local Affair Ends in Crimson Win

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The annual H--Y--P triangular debate ended in a three-way tie last night as each home team upheld the New Deal and won. Yale remains nominal champion by virtue of its 1939 victory.

At the same time it was announced that Paul W. Cherington '40 and Stanley O, Beren '41 are the recipients of this year's Coolidge prizes of $150 each.

Crimson Wins in Boston

Winning the local debate against Princeton at the Harvard Club, Jack Orloff '41, James J. Pattee '41, and Langdon P. Marvin, Jr. '41 backed the New Deal on three counts: Relief, reform, and Recovery.

Princeton maintained that the present administration has failed to cure unemployment, and has brought instead the twin evils of unsound monetary policy and deficit spending.

Losing to Yale was a team which consisted entirely of Coolidge prize-winners. Beren and Cherington won this year's awards, while Phil C. Neal '40 gained the prize last year.
