~ HIGH SCHOOL
Faculty Hears Inter:
' esting Arguments —‘

Those Who T o o k
Part—Their Views

The Debating Club of the High
School opened its work of the year
yesterday with an interesting debate
on “Zoning". The decision was
awarded to the Affirmative side by
a. unanimous vote of the Judges who
were; Principal Jakob. Miss Batch.
ford and Miss McMahon. members
of the faculty. The defenders of the
Affirmative side were: Barney Asche
Adele Van Scoy. Eleanor Kline and
Vincent O'Brien: the supporters of
the Negative side were: Leonard

 

Harris. Ethel Amreim and Joseph
Gormerly.

The following arguments were
given:

Joseph Gormley. negative:

"Zoning will prove of al.benofit
only to the wealthier cla of people
and will deprive the hard-working
individual of building the type‘ of
house which is allowed by his in-
come. The Zoning commission
could compel him to build a house
which may not be pleasing to him."

Barney Asche, affirmative:

“Zoning provides for more ade—
quate fire protection and would
prove not- only beneficial but like-
wise essentiai Houses would be
built a prescribed distance apart
and lessen the chance of a fire
spreading. If this issue goes into
effect the property owners of our
city will be forever protected. it
will also aid the traffic congestion
which has so hindered Nor-walk in
the past."

Ethel Amreim. negative:

“If the city wishes to improve
the city why not start with the difv
ferent city departments as the fire
companies and add the necessary
equipment for this organization. it
will also eliminate the small comps.
titor if the business section is com
fined. ass” of the people will buy
at the larger concerns and the small-
er man will be eliminated. There is
no need for zoning. \V’h’en an in~

ividual enters the city he looks at
it from a business standpoint. if
the factories were in one section it
would mean an added burden to the
citizen as some would have to travel
farther” than others to their occupa-
tion."

Adele VanScoy. affirmative:

"‘A number of cities have adopted
this system and it has been executed
successfully and beneficially. While
the number is small it is interesting
to know that the larger cities have

There would be a slight tax increase
but the project would prove of real
benefit for the little amount of
money expended. Zoning will go it'do
effect sooner or later as Norwalk is
ever growing and it will be necessary
and the quicker it is installed the
sooner will the public realize its
importance."

Leonard Harris. negative:

"Philadelphia adopted Zoning but
dropped it as it did not prove as ado
vantageous as they though it would
and after giving it a fair trial dis-
posed of it. it would be an almost
impossible task to zone a city of
our type which is so built up as our
present city. If the factories were
put into one zone the smoke and
other disagreeable materials would
interfere with the work of the near-
by factories. The cost of the work
would add an unnecessary tax to the
local taxpayer."

Eleanor Kline. affirmative:

“Zoning is not unconstitutional.
This point has been argued in num-
erous adjacent cities and has always
been decided in favor of the affirms.
Uve side. The system does tell the
builder of a home the type of real-
dence that he must build but this
is only for the protection of all.
Zoning in every sense of the word is
for the protection of each individual
citizen and the rulings concerning
the plans are for mutual benefit."

Vincent O'Brien. amrmative:

"Zoning is for all classes of citi-
zens and does not. favor the wealthy
person. This fact is easily proved
in the following example? A work-
ing man owns a nicely constructed
house in a. suitable location but has
the misfortune of having a vacant
lot next to his residence. His means
will not allow the laborer to pur—
chase the property. A wealthier
person purchasesihe property and
the buyer erects a tenement house
which not only depreciates the value
of the working man's home, but ai-
so lends a dismal look to the sur-
roundings. If the working man had
more capital he could have pur-
chased the nearby real estate and
the valuenof his property would not
have been lessened. ,The majority
ofVcltizens of this city are for the

of time before it will be adopted. And
when it is adopted Norwalk will be
greatly benefited. having better re-
sidential and business districts."
The rebuttal was contested by
Ethel Amreim. for the negative. say-

prove the city it should remember
the various departments before tak-
ing any action. News“: is a. full
grown. commercial city and there is
no need for the installation of the
system. If the issue was to be of
such a benefit 'to theecitiaens why
had it not been adopted before new:
If the factories were put into one
section.“ would probably prove det-
rimentalto their progress.

The afllrmative rebuttal was given
by Vincent O‘Brien. who gave the
following arguments: Norwsik‘ is
not a. full grown city .and there is
always room- for improvement. A
factbry does not need apicked spot
in order to thrive. «It is the product
it makes that gives it fame. not its
bounty. Whenyone enters a" city he
does not. look for the grimy smoke
otifs factories but its parks and

ORCHESTRA TO
PLAY 1N CHURCH
1N EVENING

Last Sunday Appear-
ance of Norwalk Or-
ganization — F i n e
Program Arranged

The Not-walk Church Orchestra
will give another of its musical ear-
vices at the Norwaik Methodist
Church this Sunday evelng. Jan.
25th. As usual. the admission will
be free, and everyone will be wel-
come. _

Thosa who have been so anxious
to know whether Franz Mstemann.
the cellist was over again to play
with the local orchestra will be
pleased to know that that artist. to-
geiher with Mr. Bevensee. the first
bass player. and Mr. nrenncn. the
oboe player both of The American
Orchestral Society of New York, will
be present Sunday cvcing.

The program will begin with a

 

selection from Donizcttl‘s opera.
"LuciaDl lammermoorL" The next
number will be a suite by Kate

Vannah. This suite consists of three
numbers :"Dawn". "Sleepy Baby".
(played with the violins muted).
and "For Thee." This is a new com-
position by this composer. and is
winning much praise for its beauty.
The second number. "SYeepy." is
especially effective. The slow. six-
lenteight time. melody. played soft-
ly and dreamily. gives one an excel-
lent musical picture of a child being
rocked to sleep. The other two
numbers. though. are scarely lc-‘s
beautiful. The last number will be
"Merry Wives of Windsor" overture.
by Nicolai.

This will be the last Sunday even-
ing musical service the orchestra
will give in Norwaik this season. its
only other appearance here being at
its usual spring concert. the date of
which will be announced later.

 

of real interest not— only as a cur-
rent topie but that debating is
something which interests everyone.
With a little more time spent on
this phase of school work it is as.
sured that a debating team repre~
senting the local schoolv will be
composed .to contest with other
schools of the state.
