BOSTON, January 13.—An audience of more than 4,000 persons whic crowded Symphony Hall to hear Bos ton College and Harvard debate Gov. Alfred E. Smith's presidential q cations rejected by a heavy majority Harvard's " contention that the New | York executive lacked the national and | international viewpoint and gave the decision to the Boston team. The debate marked the first resump- tion of forensic relations between the two colleges in 30 years and was fe; tured by a mutual agreement to elimi- nate any reference to the religious question. Dignity Is Debated. An interlude in more serious argu- ment came when David E. Scoll of Evanston, IIL, first Harvard speaker. referred to Gov. Smith's “undignified’ fondness for singing, dancing and visits to Coney Island.
