DELTA SIGMA RHO MAKE PLANS TO ESTABLISH DEBATE (Continued from Page 1.) group, was that varsity debaters should be excluded from participa tion and that any regularly en rolled student should be eligible for participation if he is not on the debate squad. Round Robin Affair. The tournament Is designed to be a round robin affair and each group will meet every other group. Two debaters to a team was de cided upon. The speeches are ten tatively set at eight minutes for the main speech and four minutes for rebuttal. The organization feels that the time is sufficient and that interest will be maintained if the debate doesn't last over an hour. Teams will alternate between the negative and the affirmative side, each organization will either have anemffirmatlve and a nega tive team or will have one team that will take both sides. This was decided as being the fairest way of handling the situation. The three judge plan was agreed upon by the debate honorary. It was thought that it would be ad visable to select disinterested judges that have bad experience in debate or in argumentation. Debates Held in Houses. It was deemed best to hold the debates in the houses of the or ganization participating as this would insure an audience. The final debate between the two sur vivors of the round robin league might be held at a place that would accommodate a crowd. Any organization will be eligible to participate. The intramural ac tivity will not be limited to fra ternities and sororities but any or ganized group that cares to take part may do so. The committee that is investi gating the situation is Edwin J. Faulkner, Carl Marold and Earl Fishbaugh. Many Questions Considered. Some of the questions that are being considered are: The abolition of compulsory military science at Nebraska, the realignment of po litical factions on the campus,, companionate marriage, women's smoking and the issue whether so cial organizations justify their own existence. Delta Sigma Rho wel comes any suggestions as to a proper question that would be of general interest. It is hoped that debate will be put on the same footing as the rest of intramural program is, and that some award, such as the placques that are presented for athletic championships, will be presented and that it will be included in the counting of points for the grand trophy. Rudolf Vogeler, chairman of In tramurals, signified his willingness to Include debate in the intramural program some time ago if enough Interest was shown by the students body to warrant Its Installation. Arrangements for the program will be made by Delta Sigma Rho and a suitable question will be chosen in the near future. Debate is one of the features of the intra mural program at other schools and according to members of the national forensic honorary there Is no reason why it is not feasible that its adoption could not be made on the Nebraska campus.

MOVIES BLAMED FOR CHILD DELINQUENCIES (Continued from Page 1.) "While the boys' cases are more numerous," said Mrs. Morning, "the elrls' are more serious." She attributed this to the fact thai girls are more subtle ana win never admit error, whereas boys frankly tell of their misdemeanors once they are caught. Most of the children who are de M.rori rtellnnupnt are Dut on pro bation, according to Mrs. Morning, unless they nave onenaea bjujo than once. In that case they are sent to a retention home. She said. "It is most interesting to see how these children Improve during the probation period."

Ample proof that Iowa State ranks among the elite in collegiate wrestling circles is found in a survey of the records covering the period of seventeen seasons since 1916 when the sport was inaugurated here. Sir.ce that time Cyclone wrest lers have built up the amazing rec ord of 103 victories losing only thirteen meets, for an all-time per centage of .888. In those 116 dual meets Iowa State has scored 2,871 1-2 points to 742 1-2 for their opponents. Iowa State grapplers have com peted against all of the Blx Six conference schools, five Iowa col leges, five Big Ten institutions seven eastern schools and other universities, the records show. Big Six Record. Against Big Six schools the Cy clones have won forty matches and lost five and have piled up 1,030 1-2 points to 30 1-2 points by con ference opponents. Their best rec ord in the Big Six is against Ne braska, the Cyclones having won fifteen while losing one. In nine matches with Kansas their record stands unblemished. In competition with Iowa college the Iowa State record Is even more impressive, for the Cyclones have never tasted defeat at the hands of an Iowa school In sixteen dual meets. Five of these were with Cornell, five with Iowa State Teachers, two with Des Moines uni versity, three with Simpson, and one with Drake. In these sixteen meets they allowed their oppo nents a total of only 77 points while they succeeded In chalking up 375. Representatives of the Big Ten have been successful only twice in twenty-seven attempts to defeat the Iowa State wrestlers. Iowa won one out of three meets, In diana one out of five, while Wis consin lost six, Minnesota six, and Northwestern five without a vic tory. Competition with Big Ten schools has added 824 1-2 points to the Cyclone total while 151 1-2 were made against them. East Goes Down. Eastern schools have been equal ly unsuccessful in staving off de feat at the hands of the Iowa State grapplers. Penn State has the dis tinction of winning the only set back the Cyclones have suffered in the east in thirteen meets. Iowa state however, still boasts a .750 percentage against that school by virtue of three wins out of four. West Virginia has lost four out of four and Pennsylvania, Navy, Syracuse, Rochester Institute, and Army, have lost in the one meet the Cyclones have wrestled with them. The latter three schools faild to score a point in the three meets these seven eastern institu tions score 94 points to 275 for Iowa State. Of the twenty-eight schools which have competed against the Cyclones since wrestling began here, only one, Oklahoma A. & M., has the better of the argument.

"We have really outgrown our equipment," states Miss Finnell, "People do not understand why we keep them waiting when they ask for a connection, but with the equipement we now have, there are often times when the lines get filled and we cannot answer a call." "We can hear the conversations but in order to do so we must stay on the line and we never have time to do so." she says.
