A Debate between Mr. Melvin Kirkland Kenny and Mr. Frank Ongley Darvell
TONIGHT'S discussion of an interesting question often asked nowadays, when the New World has made university education mean something quite different from what it so long meant over here, will be conducted by able representatives of the two points of view. Mr. Kenny is a student of the University of Toronto, where, besides being a noted athlete, he has been President of the College Students' Parliament and Chairman of the Undergraduate Centenary Committee. Mr. Darvell is a graduate of the University of Reading; he was President of its
Debating Union, led a team of British debaters which visited the Colleges of the United States last autumn, and he is a past President of the National Union of Students. He has had debating experience on the platform and the soap-box as well as in the debating hall.
