Debate Council rhetoricians will delve into the controversial subject of labor management relations tonight when they face a squad from Osgood Hall, the largest law school in Canada, in Dunster House Junior Common Room at 8 o'clock. The topic is "Resolved: That the closed shop should be abolished."

Maintaining the Crimson's affirmative stand on the issue will be Jerrold P. Bahn '49 and James F. Ryan '49.

Next Friday Council members Harry H. Eckstein '46 and Howard L. Swartzman 47 will journey to New York to battle Columbia on the same question that is being debated tonight.

Debate With West Point

Immediately after the tangle with the Lions, Eckstein and Swartzman will head for West Point, where they will enter into an extemporaneous speaking contest with Yale, Princeton and Army on March 1 and 2.

Debaters have lost only one encounter this season, and that setback came Tuesday, when two forceful University of California students won a unanimous decision by their statement of the affirmative position on the topic, "Resolved: That federal control of labor unions should be increased."
