VIII LOYOLA UNIVERSITY, NEW ORLEANS, LA., FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 1930 No. 12 Varsity Debaters Prepare For Third Intercollegiate Debate To Meet University of Wyoming in Marquette Auditorium Next Monday Night With the Baylor and Loyola of Chicago contests concluded, the Loyola Debating Team is now preparing for its third intercollegiate contest of the season, which will take place on .Monday night, March 31, in the auditorium of Marquette Hall. John Oulliber and Felicien Lozes will represent Loyola against the arguments of the forensic squad of the University of Wyoming. The Loyola team will again argue the affirmative of the proposition: "Resolved, That the nations of the world should adopt a plan of complete disarmament except such forces as are necessary for police purposes." Following the conclusions of the Wyoming debate, the local debaters will prepare for the first forensic tour in local history. The Loyola speakers will leave New Orleans on April 11, on a short debating schedule during which they will meet Oklahoma Baptist University and the University of Oklahoma, the former at Shawnee and the latter at Tulsa, Oklahoma. The contest with Oklahoma Baptist University is a return engagement and one of the year's outstanding contests. Last year, the local team defeated the Baptists in New Orleans and a return match was immediately secured. Word from W. L. Brandon, coach of the Oklahoma team, reveals the fact that the Baptists have been almost as successful this year as last, when they won the championship of Oklahoma and Tennessee. The short road and trip and forensic tour will conclude the schedule of five debates which have been arranged for the year.

FIRST DENTAL POST GRADUATE COURSE COMES TO A CLOSE Dr. Stillman and Dr. McCall Among Prominent Dentists To Deliver Lectures The first post - graduate dental course ever to be held at Loyola came to a close on Snturday, March Bth, with a general assembly over which Dr. Kennedy presided. This course has attracted quite a bit of attention in the dental profession because of the prominence of the men who participated. More than one hundred and seventy of the best dentists in New Orleans and in neighboring sections of the country enrolled for the course. All were intensely interested in the various lectures, juding from the queries which were being put constantly to the instructors. It is hoped that the course can be made an annual affair, and it is a certainty that it would receve the support of dentists throughout Louisiana. The nine men whom the university had chosen from the North and East to have charge of the course are among the most prominent in their particular lines. Drs. Stillman, Mc- Call and Fench were very popular among the students taking the course. CHEMISTRY STUDENTS HEARS LECTURE ON SUGAR REFINING Motion Picture Demonstration On Process of Sugar-Making Accompanies Lecture Mr. Skelly, representative of the American Sugar Refining Co., gave to the chemistry students an instructive and entertaining motion picture demonstration on the process of sugar-making last Tuesday morning. The picture embraced the complete development of the sugar product. It showed how the cane-stalks in the South American territories were placed into huge vats and the juices extracted before shipping to any of the five great refining companies in I the United States. It gave to the' students an insight into one of the largest factories in the world, show- j ing the gigantic machineries and the ! unique manner which the cane is re- ! fined, boiled, chemically analyzed, and finally produced in the various forms with which we are acquainted. It was interesting to see how ' machinery perfectly and accurately performs its duty, just as a man would. How the paper boxes were ' folded and filled and sealed without the touch of the human hand.

An unusual amount of interest and enthusiasm was displayed throughout. Of course, there must be the usual amount of griping that follows an election of any kind; but judging from the majorities secured by the winners in nearly every instance, I their victories were representative of the greater portion of the student body. And now for the winners. First of all is the voting for the most popular student. Emmett Toppino, Junior Arts and Science, was the winner by a large majority, and receives for a prize a monogrammed wallet from Hausmann. Timothy Loyola Duggan, came in for the next prize, which is a tie donated by the Imperial Shoe Store. In the search for the Most Spirited Loyolan, Gerard Rault, wins first place and three shirts donated by Godchaux's. Second prize, which is a tie donated by Rubenstein, goes to George Leppert.

The program although short, was very enjoyable, according to reports which have come in by letters and telegrams from the neighboring country. The Glee Club is a regular Monday night feature over the university station. The Glee Club is rapidly rounding into shape for the tour which is to take place next month. Many new numbers are being added continually to the repertory, and by the time the gleemen will be ready to start out on their trip they will have had time to polish and perfect their every number. Since Pr. Ruggeri, faculty advisor, may not be able to accompany his charges on account of the pressure of his duties at the university, the entire charge of the trip will be in the hands of Mr. Paul Jacobs, director and Francis Achee, president of the organization. Some of the latest numbers which have been added to the Glee Club list are: "Alma Mater;" "Because;" "Here We Are;" "The Rosary;" and a medley of college songs.
