Jier.'dilh College, on May 4, in the
aimuat iiitcrcnllegiaie debate, the the
ory being. Resolved: “That the United
States sliould enter tho League of
Nations.” The ailirmative side of tho
(luestioii was ilefended by M.T. Wright
and r. 0. Purser of Wake Forest, with
O. W. IJlonnt as alternate, and the
negative side was supported by Earl
A’ance and John G. Dickson of Baylor,
with W. U. Foage as alternate. Both
Tar Heels and Texan,s stood their
gi-onnd well, but the decision was
unanimous in favor of Wake Forest.
Dr. J. L. Peacock, President of Shaw
Univei'sity, who presided, introduced
the iirst speaker o£ the ainrraatlve,
H. T. Wright, who made an excellent
argument for tho League. His first
point was the purpose of the League,
which he stated in the form of a
proposition that the League wonld
eliminate tho causes of war. Using
one of President Harding’s speeches
as official authority, he developed his
idea that the United States is too
Important in the affairs of the world
for it to remain isolated.
