Some fifty schools attended, in vitations having been extended tc the "better teams of every section of the United States." The pairings were arranged so that teams from one part of the country met teams from anothei part, instead of meeting teams which they had fought all season. There were six rounds of prelimi nary debating, after which time, at a formal banquet, eight teams were named to compete in the final elimination rounds. South Carolina lost the first round to Purdue University. How ever, USC won the next five, win ning over the University of Wiscon sin, Butler University, Wheaton College, L o y o 1 a University of Chicago, and Western Michigan University. At the banquet, the eight teams named to compete in the final! were Purdue, Carolina, Augustana, Wheaton, Redlands, Notre Dame, and Georgetown. South Carolina wiped out an earlier defeat by Purdue Univer sity by defeating that school and going on into the finals, finally los ing to Brandeis University of Bos ton with a two-to-one decision. 4James Mann received a speaker's award, scoring 132 points out of a possible 150, only four below the top speaker of the tournament.

They have The Gamecock through the iaper constitution in 1950. Both the societies met ointly on Monday and draft d a resolution presented by lames L. Mann of Euphra lian and Thomas E. Smith of 'lariosophic calling for a onvention. They expressed issati ifaction with the present op *ration and interpretation of the 950 constitution. Convention The convention, to be held Tues lay night in the Clariosophic Hall t Legare College, will be held "in ccordance with the procedures and raditions embodied in the constitu ions and practices of the two so ieties and of The Gamecock Con titution (1950)." "We realy hope to come up with ;ome constructive action," said Chomas E. Smith (Clariosophic), vho co-introduced the bill calling or the convention. He added, "We .re serious about suggestions and .sk both students and faculty to )resent any ideas or suggestions icy might have." The unusual meeting of the two ocieties on Monday was punctuated )y several sharp exchanges over a Sen. Chip Cothran ill introduced in the USC Student enate by Sen. Chip Cothran, ex >elling both societies from the board of Publications, which the ocieties are constitutionally em >owered to direct. 'No Authority' "The Student Senate has no au hority whatsoever to pass a bill hanging the Student Board of Publication," Smith said The iamecoce is the exclusive prop ~rty of the two societies, being op. rated under a constitution ratified n 1950," he stated. The resolution before Student Senate calls censorship of The 9amecock, a decrease in the nm er of students on the Board of Publications, and does not allow Clariosophic and Euphradian rep resentatives on the Board. The bill wvill be voted on Monday. If the Student Senate should be successful in their attempt to re arganize the Student Board of Pub lications, James L. Mann (Euphra dian) said the societies would re tuse to permit the newspaper to use the name of The Gamecock, since the societies legally own the name, and it is registered in the state of South Carolina.
