ISSUES REPORT ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL DEBATES ISSUES 15 Affirmative And Negative Sides Win Almost Equal Nuniber Of Debates On Question Of Primaries MANY ATTEND CONTESTS According to a report i'ssued by Prof. Gail E. Densmore, manager of the Micligan high school debating league, the returns thus far from the debates on the question, resolved that the direct primary should be abolished, show that the affirmatives have been able to win decisions in 128 debates, while the negatives have only suc- ceeded in annexing 112 contests. It has been estimated by league of- ficials that more than 1,100 students have participated in the debates, which have been held in every part of the state. More than 50,000 peo- ple have attended these contests.- Half of the preliminary debates have already been held, each high. school, having participated in two contests.

This year the state champion'ship debate will be held on the night of April 17. This is several weeks earlier than usual. It has been sched- uled at this time because the Michi- gan Schoolmasters club has re'served Friday night, April 17, for the cham- pionship contest.
