The contest will be held in Baltimore. The question under debate is: “Resolved, That the Water-power Resources of the United States Should Be Owned and Operated by the State and Federal Governments Rather Than by Private interests.” with Georgetown defending the negative. Georgetown's varsity debating team is arraging for two or more inter- | collegiate contests this season. These | will be announced when the negotia- tions have been completed. Dr. Nevils delivered lecture on | “Vergil; Poet, Patriot and Prophet” at the Catholic University last Mon- day evening. This was the last of the series of Winter lectures which roved so successful at the university. ¥n commenting on the fact that Vergil's great works still live after 2,000 years, Dr. Nevils declared it is erroneous to refer to Latin as a “dead language.” Vergil's renown is due in part, he re- minded, to the fact that the Catholic Church has preserved Latin as its offi- cial language. A student of Vergil's works, Dr. Nevils has done much to advance their study at Georgetown. Years ago Dr. Nevils taught Vergil at Georgetown and re- cently inaugurated a Vergilian Academy t the college in honor of the bimillenial niversary of Vergil. Two of Georgetown's most prominent alumni, Johm P. O'Brien and Martin Conboy, New York attorneys, recently were enrolled in the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre. This order,| membership in which is one of the highest honors that can be bestowed | upon a Catholic, dates back to the| time of Godfrey de Bouillon, who de- livered the Holy Land in 1099. Mr. O'Brien, who has two sons at Georgetown, is a graduate of 1895 and 1897. having taken his law degree in that year.
