anticipation of extensive activity, Di
rector of Athletics George W. PyJe has
instructed Manager P. H. Miller, of
Wheeling, to arrange three or four
meets for next spring and letters are
now being sent to various colleges in
Ohio, West Virginia and Western
Pennsylvania, asking for dual meets.
Prospects were never brighter hero
for a banner year and Director Pyle
Is anxious to take advantage of this
state of affairs.
Unless there is a hitch in present
arrangements West Virginia will bo
seen in the big intercollegiate meet
which is held in Pittsburgh every
spring in which six or seven colleges
are represented. It was the intention
to enter this meet last spring, but ow
ing to the fact that no track was avail
able here at that time it was thought
best to wait until this year. Plans
are on to hold a dual meet with either
Marietta College or at Parkorsburg,

Debating Team
NEGOTIATIONS ARE. NOW ON
WITH SEVERAL COL
LEGES.
ARRANGEMENTS ARE NOW COM
PLETE FOR THE TRY-OUT
DEBATE.
BUCKHANNON, Dec. ,17.?(Spe
cial.)?It was given out yesterday by
Secretary McQualn, ot the Wesl'eyan
Oratorical Association, that Wesley
an would have sonio strong debating
teams on her floor this year, ami per
haps send two teams away from home.
U. of P. has offered to debate Wesley
an on the home floor, and after 'con
sidering this before the association
It was decided to take this up in view
to reaching an agreement with the
Pittsburgh boys where they would ap
pear In Buckhannon this year. So
this debate Is practically assured, then
there are arrangements well advanc
ed to have a triangular debato !>?
tween Marietta College, Bethany Col
lege and Weslevan, this is also very
near settled, as Wesleyan has been
meeting those colleges for the last
several years in debate, ana there 13
not much at Issue Then It comes to
arranging a debato with them. It is
likely that Pitt will be met In April
on the Wosleyan floor and the trian
gular debate will be staged about May
1. Arrangements are already almost
complete for the try-out debate, which
will bo held In January and in this
the several teams will be selected by
competeut Judges. The material tills
year is abundant and there arc sev
eral old men back In school, 'l'hcy are
Falirlan, of Pickens, and Smith, of
Fairmont, who did not debate last
year because of heavy work, but who
will try for the teams this year, bol'i
being on the teams of 1913. Work
man, of Citie, and Shumaker, of Uuck
hannon, who were 011 the 1914 teams,
and several other good men who were
In school last year, and also several
that have come In this year who have
shown marked ability, will be eligible.
Some of these are liobbitt. of Webster
Springs; Brown, of Grafton; Post, of
Buckhannon; Morrison, of Becklcy;
?Fisher, of Dav!?; Coger, of Webster
Springs; Hinklo, of Buckhannon, an>1
several others. It is thought that there
will be twenty try out for the teams,
and with this good material Wesleyan
should hold up her high record of wins
on the debating floor.
