The second and final trials for the University Debating Team held yesterday afternoon and evening respectively resulted in the choice of the six members who make up the team and three alternates. Speeches of 12 minutes and five minutes' rebuttal delivered by each contestant ended in the selection of M. J. Donner '21, L. Dennis Occ., W. S. Holbrook, Jr., '21, B. H. Kuhns '22, E. L. Thomas '20, and J. J. Tutun 1L., with E. D. Hutchinson '22, B. F. Jones '22, and A. M. Stoddard '20 as alternates. The judges of these trials were W. H. Foster '09, C. E. Fraser 1G.B., and W. A. Hosmer 1G.B., all former University debaters.

Daily practice starts immediately under C. E. Fraser, a member of the team of 1917 which unanimously defeated Yale. Fraser will be assisted by several former debaters who have volunteered to help shape the team. All the men on the team will meet in the Living Room of the Union tonight at 7 o'clock for the first practice of the season in preparation for the Dartmouth debate which is scheduled for January 16.
