TO KEEP SIX UNTIL EVE OF DEBATE WITH ENGLISH

Six men will be retained to prepare for the debate with the English speakers in Symphony Hall on October 28, according to an announcement of the debating coaches following the trials last night. Of these only three will speak, but all six will work on the case up to the time of the debate, and the speakers will not be chosen until two days before the team meets its English opponents. The coaches state that this method will develop a stronger case by having more men at work upon it, and will compel each of the six men to exert his best efforts until the case is ready to be presented. The plan is to give as many men as possible the intensive practice incident to preparing for an important debate, the coaches assert, so that a body of experienced material will be built up upon which to draw for future debates.

The men retained are: C.C. Alpern '28, J.L. Beauchamp Jr. '28, F.W. Lorenzen '28, A.F. Reel '28, J.M. Swigert '30, and Barrett Williams '28.
