Debating Club Notes

This club is now well embarked on its year's programme, but many interesting events have still to take place. Among them we may mention the Inter-faculty Debate (Arts and Science v. Law and Commerce) on June 13, the annual debate with Training College, the visit of the Oregon debaters and the Plunket Medal Contest on July 18. It is also proposed to hold a second New Speakers' debate, if it can be arranged, on account of the great number of new speakers who have joined the Society this year.

During the past few months such diverse subjects as the College of Electors. Soviet Russia, the Optimist and Pessimist, Mr. Forbes and the Ten Per Cent., Christian Missions, the Arbitration Court and Democracy. have been discussed by the potential Ciceros and Semples of the College.

Anyone wishing to take part in debates or able to suggest subjects for the two debates not yet fixed, is asked to leave a note in the rack for the Secretary.

It goes with a bang.
