DEBATERS ARGUE FOR LIMIT ON U. S. COURT

Oppose Tufts in No-Decision Contest on Supreme Court's Power to Review Acts Passed by Congress

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Defending the affirmative side of the question: "Resolved, That the United States Supreme Court should be deprived of the privilege of the review of Federal legislation," the Crimson debaters engaged in a no-decision contest with the Tufts College Debating Council last night in the Lowell House Junior Common Room.

The main argument for the affirmative was that the judgments of the Court involve too much merely of the personal opinion of the justices. Harvard representatives were, in order of speaking, Thomas W. Stephenson '37, John A. Sullivan, Jr. '38, and Joseph P. Healey '37.

Boston Latin and Brown Freshmen will be the two opponents of Yearling speakers in their first test of the year tonight. The subject of the debate will be: "Resolved, That the Federal Government should own and operate all power utilities."

Speakers for the Brown debate, which will be in the Upper Common Room of the Union at 7.15 o'clock, will be Lawrence F. Ebb, Frank P. Davidson and Richard H. Sullivan.

Morgan O. Preston, Robert McT. Coquillette and Fred W. Peel, Jr. will be the Yearling representatives at Boston Latin.
