H. U. Competitive Debate.

A competitive debate for membership will be held at 7.30 tonight, in Sever 11, by the Harvard Union. It will be the last competitive debate of the year which will be open to the upper class men. The debate, which is on the subject, "Resolved, That the absorption of the Turkish Empire by Russia should not be opposed by other European powers," will be opened on the affirmative by H. E. Addison '96, and on the negative by R. C. Davis '97. Contestants will have five minutes each to speak and will be passed upon by a committee of judges, chosen from the instructors interested in debating.
