Debaters Win High Ratings At Nebraska
High individual ratings were awarded KU debaters at Nebraska University Invitational Tournament Friday and Saturday.
Ratings were based on the number of debates won and the individual quality of each debater.
John Knightly, Hutchin son sophomore, was rated superior, the tournament's highest rank. Ralph Seger, Topeka sophomore, and Knightly were rated superior in team competition. They won all five of their debates. Seger was rated excellent in the individual awards.
Kenneth Irby, Fort Scott sophomore, and William Summers, Wichita freshman, were rated excellent in both team competition and as individual debaters. They won four of five debates.
Kim Giffin, associate professor of speech and debate coach, said he was pleased with the high ratings because juniors and seniors represented the other schools. Colleges and universities from nine states participated.

A meeting of AWS Senate and House members, organized house presidents, and women who originally petitioned for the Senate will be held at 4 p.m. Tuesday in the Jayhawk Room of the Student Union.

The women who petitioned for the Senate need not petition again, but those who want their names removed should contact Miss Sheets or Miss Luthy.
The present situation is the lack of interest in the organization, said Dottie Sheets, Topeka senior and president of AWS Senate. "It is everyone's responsibility to have a voice in the rules of regulations of the women on this campus, and therefore, all organized houses should be represented, rather than just a few."

Before the candidates are chosen, the senior committee considers leadership, previous activity experience, and AWS Senate member potential of each woman.
The Senate, a legislative body, has final jurisdiction over rules or regulations passed or suggested by the House, and also serves as a judiciary board to pass judgment on disciplinary problems.
"The AWS should not be a 'buzzy work' organization," Miss Luthy said. "Instead, it should represent something worth-while which will not degenerate. The AWS House should also have stronger membership."
"We were overjoyed with the characteristics and leadership abilities of the women who did petition for the Senate," said Annette Luthy, Kansas City, Mo., senior and Senate elections chairman, "but we feel there should be a larger petition representation. Only six or seven Greek houses and one independent house were represented.

The petitioners will take a test Tuesday, March 6 which will concern the information they learned in the briefing session. A committee composed of senior Senate members will grade the tests and select the women whose names will be placed on the ballot. The election will be Tuesday, March 13.
