The Spike or Victoria College Review June 1930

Debating

Debating.

The Debating Committee arranged a Debating Tour to Australia last year in September, and in the same month the Victoria College Debating Team left for America, under the combined auspices of the N.Z.N.U.S., the National Federation of Canadian University Students, and the National Student Federation of U.S.A.

This year the N.U.S. has arranged a wireless debate between A.U.C. and V.U.C. for the 14th July. The two teams will be able to debate without having to travel, and people in both Auckand and Wellington will hear both sides. This is the first time anything of this nature has been tried in New Zealand, and, as far as University debating is concerned, in the world. The N.U.S. Debating Committee is also endeavouring to arrange a similar debate between Canterbury University College and Otago University. Finally, the Joynt Scroll Contest is to be run by the N.U.S. this year, instead of by the Tournament Committee.
