KU battles British in friendly debate
By PATRICIA FEENY
Staff writer
The British invaded last night in the Walnut Room of the Kansas Union.
Two members of the KU debate team, coached by Donald Parson, professor of speech and communications, exchanged insults during a debate with two members of the Oxford Union, a touring debate society.
Eddie Watson, Arkansas City senior, and Steve Ellis, Wichita senior, debated in favor of the topic, "This House Believes that the United States Foreign Policy is Offensive."
Mark Malcomsen, a graduate from Edinburgh University, and Gary Bell, graduate of Bristol University, chose the topic for the debate and argued the opposite position.
KU argued that the United
States had an offensive foreign policy and Great Britain argued that it was defensive.
The four men set out to entertain the audience of about 60, and frequent bursts of laughter and clapping marked their speeches.
The Oxford Union joked, scouted, insulted and tipped around the issues while KU countered with more jokes, more insults.
KU carried more weight in the debate — literally. The two teams swapped insults about each others' waistlines throughout the debate.
Before he began one speech,
Malcomsen, who is thin, called the
other three speakers refugees
from Weight Watchers.
Bell said this was the first time that he and his colleague had been to the United States.
"This is the first time we have been to any of her Majesty's, the Queen's, colonies," he said.
67th Expo showcases KU skills
By a Kansan reporter
Engineering students will get the opportunity to show off the skills they will be using after graduation at the 67th annual Engineering Expo today and tomorrow in Learned Hall.
Chris Lopez, one of Expo's organizers and a member of the Engineering Student Council, said all engineering disciplines would be represented.
Lopez said the students thought of project ideas in the spring and began building the exhibits this semester. Expo starts at noon today and is open until 6 p.m. Tomorrow, it will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Paul Barnard, Geneva, Neb., junior, said the main exhibit for the aerospace department was Mars 2000, a rocket engine and design by Eddie Terrell, Texarkana, Texas, senior.
