March 22, 1928. Dr. W. A. Harper, Elon College, N. C. Dear Dr. Harper: Many thanks for the copy of the Elon Alumni Voice containing your excellent article* on College Government. I have read it with interest and learned from it numerous facts I had not known be fore. I wish likewise to- express my interest in Miss Eldredge’s article which I also read with interest. Yours cordially, E. Levis Prizer (M. D.) r: The Philologians last Wednesday eve ning rendered one of the best programs of the entire year. The program itself was a discussion of college publications and the work required to get them be fore the public. P. G. Hook told of the work of the Editor; C. W. Kipka of the Managing Editor; H. S. Shepherd spoke of getting advertisements; T. E. Lowry, of the value of a college paper; A. P. Lewis on the Alumni Voice; G. S. Hunt on college magazines; and H. B. Hoo-k gave a reading on Nature. The debate, however, was the real feature of the entire program. It was hotly contested, while the society was swayed first one way and then the other as various speakers took the floor, and presented their arguments. The query was: “Resolved, That Elon Col lege Should Require a Publication Fee.’' J. S. Fowler first took the floor. He favored the publication fee on the grounds that it made extensive plan ning in advance more feasible, which is very desirable. He also stated that it is resorted to all over this state with success. Fowler gave statistics to prove his contention. He read the names of fifteen colleges in North Carolina with this publication fee and argued that every important college with few excep tions had it. He then pointed to the “Big Five” and asked if the larger schools found it absolutely essential and a success, why is it not feasible here? C. P. Thompson, the negative speaker, argued that it destroys initiative. W. P. Lawrence, however, ably met all negative contentions. He showed how our own paper had, until last year, been very deeply in debt and getting in deeper each week, besides frequent dis continuances in publication. He argued that many students will not support colege publications and asked why a few should bear the whole burden? Also why be forced to rely on advertising, seeing that students are not especially fond of reading ads for college news? He argued ably with reference to other colleges, both of prominence and of a medoicre grade, showing that a publica tion fee means a better paper; then the staff could work then more at the real literary nature of a paper without filling it -with too many ads. E. F. Knight ended the negative con tention, asserting that it wasn’t sound business to force people to put their money into’ a thing they didn’t care anything about. The de('ision of the committee was unanimous in favor of the affirmative side, which met the approval of the entire society.
