Ariel of the Minnesota state university
devotes a column and a half to "A Now
Oratorical League," in yhich is tho
sentence: "Those at tho head of the
oratorical work at tho university are
disposed to look with great favor upon
the proposal by Nebraska." Missouri,
although desiring to remain another
year in her present leagues, will organ
ize a local association in order to enter
tho now league. Mr. Hyatt, president
of tho debating association In Kansas
university, was hero at the Kansas-Nebraska
game and reported that the
head of tho department of elocution
and oratory in that institution was de
cidedly in favor of tho new scheme,
n;id that favorable action would likely
bo takon. Everything now points to a
successful outcome of tho new league.
