The debating team closes its season tonight, facing Yale in the Lowell House Common Room at 8 o'clock to uphold the affirmative of the question: "Resolved, That the international traffic in arms and munitions should be outlawed." Another team has been sent to New Haven where it will defend the negative of the same question. The winner of the Thomas Jefferson Coolidge Prize for Public Speaking, will be announced at the debate here tonight.

Litwack '34, and O. H. Lurie '34, as alternates.
