The debate, "Resolved: That black cats eat more yellow pumpkins than yellow cats eat black pumpkins," was so eloquently and ably argued by Mel vin Willioms and Miss Rosalie Turner on the affirmative and Raymond Hilde brand and Miss Mayre Wall on the negative that the judges, Bruce Rob erts, Miss Rose Miller Betts and Wil liam Parrish, were unable to discrimi nate, and rendered the decision a tie. A weird and creepy reading by Miss Jewel Parrot was quite in keeping with the Hallowe'en decorations, and with the witch who had her quarters in one corner of the hall.

She goes on wild parties and when she gets home won't tell me where she has been. I'm reduced to desperation. - Anxious. Dear Anxious: I can sympathize with you. I've seen hundreds of mar riages wrecked by just this thing. Never marry a gad-about. Pick some good girl who knows a few good speak easies and sticks to them. It's always safest in the long run. * * * * Dear Miss Barefacts: I am en gaged to a young man who has left me cold. What can I do to get him back? -Jfonesome. Dear Lonesome: There are a num ber of excellent preparations on the market for this purpose. If 15 Min t?es a day at the Harvard Classics fail, why not try Listerine? * * * * Dear Miss Barefacts: I have a steady whom I am crazy about. But he is a prizefighter and says I must discuss Shakespere and Freud intel ligently before we can be married. What must I do?-Distracted. Dear Distracted: Why aim so high? There are plenty of good college pro fessors who learned long ago not to expect anyone to discuss Shakespere and Freud intelligently. Marry one of them, and since you are young enough to resemble a co-ed, he probably won't expect anything of you at all. * * * * Dear Miss Barefacts : T am quite an intelligent girl and since people have round it out T never have any dates. T, there anything that can be don -nhout it ?-Curious. Dear Curious: Quite a number of things. However, a lot depends on the rnen. Are there any actors playing at your local theatre?
