Pioneer Club Wins Decision
In Debate with Demosthenians
Jenkins. Firor Defend Af
firmative While Kent, Bal-
lew Uphold Negative
Pioneer Club won by nn over
whelming majority vote Wednesday
night a debate with Demosthenlan
on the subject. Resolved: That wo
men are more versatile than men.
l’hyllis Jenkins, Athens, and Anne
Byrd Firor, Athens, upheld the af
firmative for Pioneer Club, while De-
Wltt Itallew, Savannah, and Juck
Kent, Rome, urgued the negative for
Demosthenlan.
Jenkins, the first speaker, request
ed that Instead of the usual "mud
slinging" the debate be kept on a
higher level. From that point on
speakers of both sides flung sar-
easm and “mud” at their opponents
with bombastic garrulity.
.Icnkins' Argument
Jenkins contended that "there Is
no room for argument on the sub
ject, only enlightenment Is neces
sary." She further pointed out that
making the "peculiar animal, man"
happy Is a diversified task In Itself.
DeWItt Ballew, first speaker for
the negative, declared, "Arguing with
a woman Is like Columbus, lie didn't
know where he wa's going; when he
got to America he didn't know where
he was, and when ho got back, he
didn’t know where he had been.
They are many sided, varlnble as
wind, and have no opinions of their
own.”
Anne Byrd Firor pointed out that
women are bettor conversationalists
and better dancers on the whole than
men. Sho further contended that a
woman must be a student in the
morning, an athlete in the afternoon,
and a glamour girl at night whereas
"a playboy Is always a playboy.”
Man Is Always Same
She stated, "A man Is always the
same on a date but u woman hns to
adapt herself to the type of person
she is with.”
Kent held that women are al
ways meddling In affairs that do not
concern thorn, und referred to Mrs.
Roosevelt us un example. He con
cluded by saying that although his
opponents had been "slinging mud"
ho had refrained from doing so for
four that he "might dirty the walls.”
Boh Normnn, Washington, presi
dent of Demosthenlan, announced
that tryouts for the sophomore pre
pared debate would be held In Demos-
thenlun Hall Monday at 3:30. The
debate will probably be held Wed
nesday night.

Journalism School
Marks 25th Year
Marking the 25th anniversary of
Instruction in journalism at the Uni
versity, a 16-page supplement to the
current Issue of the Georgia Alumni
Record has been published by the
Alumni Society.
The School of Journalism was
formed In 1915 under the direction
of Dr. S. V. Sanford, then a member
of the English faculty and now chan
cellor of the University System. In
1921 the school was named for Hen
ry W. Grady, an alumnus of the Uni
versity and distinguished editor, au
thor and statesman.
The Grady School Is one of four
In the Southeast accredited by the
American Association of Schools and
Departments of Journalism, the
Alumni Record points out.
Training of recruits for newspaper
work is not the exclusive aim of the
school, according to the supplement,
but rather to provide a broad cul
tural and professional education
which will be useful in any work
calling for a knowledge of journalism
and contemporary affairs.

Knoxville, Tenn., Dec. 4.
Chi Psis of Georgia, Tech, and all
alumni will attend a banquet at the
