“The
great deal
this year, and with four veterans
back next year, I believe that St. Ed-
ward’s will have a banner year in
debating,” he said. “The prospects
for a geat season are the best St.
Edward’s has had for several years.”
Season Closed April 19
Dropping a decision to Howard
Payne college, a St. Edward’s uni-
versity debating team, composed of
Sulak,
Ed-
Friday
The debate was
held before a state meeting of the
Texas Oratorical association.
The St. Edward’s team upheld the
affirmative side of the question: “Re-
solved, That a substitute for trial by
jury should be adopted.” David and
Singleton, representing Howard
Payne in the unique dress of Texas
cowboys, defended the negative.
s The debate was judged by two
iJcal men and three visiting orators
who returned a decision of foui’ to
one in favor of the negative team.
The same Howard Payne combina-
tion, dressed in the same cowboy
regalia, had just concluded an ex-
tensive tour of the United States in-
cluding Canadian points. On this
tour the\ team won nineteen out of
twenty-three debates.
On Oct. 31 against a team repre-
senting the University of Sydney,
Australia. The Australians took a
3-0 judges’ decision on the affirma-
tive side of the question, “Resolved,
That the cabinet system of govern-
ment is superior to the presidential
form.” The St. Edward’s team was
made up of Joseph Koegler, John
Sulak, and James McCloskey.
McAtee and Blackwell Win
The next debate was held with
Simmons university in the St. Ed-
ward’s auditorium on Feb. 14. Petei-
McAtee and Roland Blackwell of St.
Edward’s won a 2-1 decision on the
negative side of the jury question.
Koegler and Sulak dropped three
2-1 decisions to Simmons university,
McMurry college and Abilene Chris-
tian college in Abilene on Feb. 18,
19, and 20. St. Edward’s upheld the
affirmative of the jury question in
each instance.
Culver-Stockton college of Canton,
Mo., was then handed a 2 to 1 de-
feat by Koegler and Sulak in the Uni-
versity auditorium on March 8. St.
Edward’s again upheld the affirma-
tive of the jury question.
McAtee and Blackwell won the
next encounter, with Southwest Tex-
as State Teachers'college in San Mar-
cos on April 12. The St. Edward’s
team, defending the negative of the
jury question, received a unanimous
decision.
For the second time the St. Ed-
ward’s university Spanish club scor-
ed a hit when some of its members
participated in a Spanish play pre-
sented at the Our Lady of Guadalupe
auditorium, Sunday night, April 14.
The play, “Frutos del Dolor,”
which deals with the present Mexi-
can religious persecution, was pre-
sented some time ago at the Knights
of Columbus hall of this city by the
same caste. The Rev. Gerard Mon-
geau, O. M. I., under whose direct-
ion the play was presented, said that
the play was put on so well that his
parishioners began to call for it
He gave in to their demand
and presented the play again be-
fore an audience of about five hun-
dred persons.
Manuel Ochoa, as Luis, the Cath-
olic youth put to death for his faith,
ran away with the honors with his
almost genuine presentation of his
part. Jose Padilla, as Luis’s fath-
er-in-law, and Isauro Moya, as Luis’s
close friend, came in for a share of
the honors through their handling
of their roles with ease. Raul Ar-
guelles, playing the part of a Mexi-
can general, performed very credit-
ably.
Besides those mentioned, the fol-
lowing also took part: Edmundo
Villareal, and Guillermo Salas, both
of the Spanish club, and the Misses
Lupe Guajardo and Elizabeth Farro, 1
of the Our Lady of Guadalupe club.
A summer session of the Prepara-
tory school will be held during the
coming summer, according to the an-
nouncement of the Rev. Dr. Joseph
Burke, C. S. C., president of the Uni-
versity. The session will begin on
Monday, June 17, and will continue
for six weeks, the president said.
The curriculum of the summer
school will be determined by the
number of students applying for par-
ticular courses. Any high school
subject will be taught if there are
enough applying for the course,
Father Burke said. The equivalent
of one and one-half credits toward
graduation from high school may be
made up during the six weeks.
The faculty for the summer session
will probably include the following:
Father Forrestal, Dr. J. J. Quinn,
Frank J. Skeeler, A. J. Bieter, El-
more Borchers and Thornton J.
O’Connor.

Although the debaters lost a maj-
ority of their forensic battles this
year, Elmore Borchers, debate coach,
was well pleased with the showing
made by the two teams. “Consider-
ing the type of opposition which we
had to meet and the inexperience of
the men on the teams, I feel that
the season has been successful,” he
shid.
Borchers indicated that a debate
schedule for next year would be be-
shortly, and predicted a big
