Nw York flw Yorh Research plays a larger part In debate now than it has In past years, according to Jackson Harrell, one of the faculty sponsors of the 18 UUl students on debate teams. The topic for college debate this year is "Resolved: that the power of the presidency should be significantly cur tailed." Increased research on debate topic Is primarily an evolution of debate proces ses, Harrell said. "The country ha3 undergone, In the last 20 to 30 years, an empirical revolution," he said. 10,000 research cards According to Harrell, it's not unusual for a debate team to have 10,000 research cards for a complicated topic. -.ln a'irr?rwf,;riour of research" an indiviffirsi tan 'compile anywhere fr3m eight to ten cards,' he said. ' "In college debate, the affirmative side has total freedom tp define what the resolution means to them," Harrell noted. This year, positions such as "the total operation of the CIA should be altered," "what should constitute executive privilege" and. "reducing secret infor mation classifications" also are being argued, he said. Students may take a course entitled "University Debate" for one or two credit hours up to four times, or they may participate in debate as an extracurricular activity. Debate participants represent a wide range of interest, Harrell said. Students from business, economics, political science, speech, history and English are on debate teams. Tournament trips Each two-member team goes to four or five tournaments, he said. Except for national tournaments debates are open to ail teams interested in participating. A team doesn't know what other teams will be at a tournament until they arrive, and what team it will oppose until a few , qiinutes before the debate, he said. Tournament trips last from two to three and one-half days, and funding for Ntrips comes from the College of Arts and 'Sciences budget, Harrell said..,: ... So far this semester, UNL debate teams have participated in four tour naments. The total team record is 60 per cent wins, which is "not a bad average," Harrell said. If teams go through a complete 22 tournament season with 70 per cent of , the teams winning ail their debates, they are doing "unbelievably well," ha said. . The teams took third and fourth place, in the third annual St. Olaf, Minn., , Debate tournament last weekend. This weekend, NU debate teams will compete at the University of Kansas and at Northwestern Missouri State Colieg. J Geils album blues at its best Review by Meg Greene. "Nightmares . . . and other tales from the vinyl jungle"-J. Geils Band Once again six young men from the Boston-Cambridge area are strutting their stuff. Will this never end? J. Geils has come up with a real rocking, stomping album. This one leaves you Ulmr.t, "Well If you wanna gowell honey, just let me know." Oh those vocals of Peter Wolf. Grating, searing eroticism. "Stoop Down 39" shows J. Geils at his hottest. And Tricky Dick. Can that boy play harmonica. These are sideline attractions really. The rest of the band smokes and steams thru some of ths finest rhythm and blues to coma along In a great while. Try, just try to keep your feet still. t - t ., , Funky, low and exciting, J. Geils' energy in their playing and singing is like' a light at the end of the tunnel. Modern rhythm and blues at its best. But what makes it even better Is that there is a noticeable absence of tha pretentious consciousness rising so. often present in today's music. J. Geils represents some of the simpler things in life. r ASUN agenda Oct. 30, 1974 I. Guest Speaker: Allen Beermann II. Executive Report: Student fees for alumni support ill. Open Forum IV.
