THE UNIVERSITY COURIER. 5 Rebattal speeches of ten minutes duration were made by Mr. Weaver for Nebraska and Mr. Madden for Kansas While the judges were conferring the audience adjourned to Library hall, where a reception was held The judges announced their decision in favor of Kansas. The debate was won by a very close margin. The following is the order of the markings: Madden, Weaver, Brady, McNeal, Sherman and Little. This first debate was indeed a success especially as the result was so gratifying to K.U. The speeches of both sides were very creditable and the audience manifested a much greater interest than usual in the ordinary oratorical contes. The credit of arrangement is due largely to the efforts of Professor Hopkins. The Nebraska men are all members of the collegiate department. Mr. Weaver and Mr. Sherman are Seniors and Mr. McNeal is a Junior. They were accompanied by Prof. Adams head of the Department of English in Nebraska University. The judges were Prof. Buchanan of the Kansas City High School and President J. W.Cook of the Illinois State Normal School. At the last moment the third judge chosen telegraphed his inability to be present and as it was too late to get any one else who would be satisfactory to both sides, the two judges mentioned decided the ?ebate.
