Marshal Joseph P. Cude, Jr.
Jan. 13. —"Resolved: That the United
States should immediately withdraw
the marines from Nicaragua" was the
topic for discussion in the Websteriau
Literary Society last Friday night.
Olin Sink and Paul Tew ably pre
sented the affirmative side of the ques
tion by proving that the entire scheme
is the result of an imperialistic policy
as now practiced by the United States.
However, Calvin Wray and Robert At
kinson secured the judges' decision by
pointing out that the marines' sole
duty in Nicaragua is the protection of
American lives and property.
Joseph Westmoreland, in a humorous
way that drew much laughter from the
society members, set forth some campus
jokes relating to local personages.

America Discovered for $7200
Old records show that the cost of Columbus' first
expedition to America amounted, in modern exchange,
to only $7200. To finance Columbus, Isabella,
Queen of Spain, offered to pawn her jewels. Today
word comes from Spain indicating that a twentieth
century importation from the new world is fast effect
ing a sufficient saving to ransom many royal jewels.
The Spanish Northern Railway reports that the
American equipment with which in 1924 the railroad
electrified a mountainous section of its lines from Ujo
to Pajares has accomplished the following economies:
2. A reduction of 40% in the number of engine miles for
the same traffic handled.
3. A saving of 73%% in the cost of repairs and upkeep
for locomotives.

night was one phase of the intercol
legiate query, "Resolved that the United
States should withdraw the marines
from Nicaragua." The issue is a live
one and it was hotly contested
throughout. Weldon Reece and Allen
Stafford contended for the affirmative
th it the presence of the marines is
earning for us the dislike and distrust
of the Latin-American republics and
that keeping them there is contrary to
the principles of American govern
ment. Clare Trueblood and Ervin
Lemons won the judges' decision for
the negative by proving that the ma
rines are necessary to keep peace and
protect American life and property.
A second number entitled "Campus
News," by Richard Wharton, was so
humorous and witty that it kept the
society members in constant laughter
till Mr. Wharton sat down.

Jan. 13.—The theme of the Phil pro
gram for last Friday night was a trip
around the world. The first glimpse
of foreign soil was portrayed by the
sight of a little French peasant girl
THE GUILFORDIAN
Xell Thomas) and her rendition of a
few verses of poetry. In the course of
the journey Ireland entertained us
with a native folk dance by Pauline
Mi-Bane. Spain was quite characteris
tically represented by a scene between
a Spanish senorita (Espie Neece) and
her ardent lover (Thelma King). Jo
Paul, Etfie Stevens, Annie Lee Bond,
and Ethel Chadwick were Japanese
girls who gave us a song and dance.
America then majestically held the
stage in the person of Mary Reynolds,
patriotic in the proper colors.
