In the debating trials last night six men were retained to compete for the University team which will meet the University of Pittsburg on January 13, and eight men were selected for further trials for the two 1926 teams to debate Exeter and Middlesex on January 12 and 17 respectively. Five-minute speeches were made by each candidate on either side of the question, "Resolved, that the United States should enter into an agreement with the former Allied Nations for the mutual cancellation of Interallied war debts."
