The wording of the subject for the triangular debate between Yale, Princeton and the University has just been submitted by Yale and reads as follows: Resolved, That the United States should adopt a system of compulsory military service modelled after that of Switzerland. The question was chosen by the University and worded by the Yale debaters. It should be noticed that the subject concerns Switzerland and not Sweden as had wrongly been stated.

The first trials for the University team will be held next Monday night in Harvard 5 and 6. Each man is expected to speak for five minutes on either side of the question. About 18 men will be retained. The second trials will come on Wednesday, February 23, when each of those retained will speak for ten minutes. After these above debates, twelve men will be retained for the final trials on Saturday, February 26.
