Subject to approval of the student body board of control the college debaters will travel to Car-bondale, III., for the national Phi Rho Pi debate tournament.

A short junket will be taken by the speakers either to Albion, Idaho, or "to Carbon college at Price, depending on a later decision by Mr. Monson.Mr. Monson said, "This schedule is one of the best we have had since the beginning of the war. I think we can put Weber college back on the map as one of the top debating schools in the nation. Our teams this year have made an outstanding showing, and I think their record is only indicative of the things they can do if given the opportunity and funds to carry out a first rate program." Weber debaters took honors at Linfield college tournament when Clyde Parker took second place in oratory and Laurence Burton and Dee Ward Hock captured third place honors in debate. Took First Place Later at the Carbon college tournament Weber swept the honors by taking first places in debate, oratory, and extempt.

Crowning honors for the Weber college squad came at the national Phi Rho Pi debate tourney when Burton and Hock went through the entire tournament undefeated. All other debate teams had at least two losses. Clyde Parker took first place in extempt and Hock placed second.
