Of this rec- ognition its informant says: "This must be construed as imply- ing recognition from all the conse- quences of the Russian revolution as far as the former government of the czar is concerned, but in no way is it an approval of the bolshevik pol- icy." Bolsheviki In Danger Both the Paris Journal and the Paris Petit Parisien point to the dan- ger in which the bolsheviki are re- ported to stand in losing Petrograd. They declare that a defeat at Novas ought to be regarded by the soviet government as a serious warning. Urge Immediate Adoption (By Associated Press); Paris, Jan. 24.-Responses to de- niands in the United States and Great; Britain, which are echoed from Ger- many, for an immediate conclusion of the peace query, efforts are be- ing made to hasten the adoption of, a plan of a league of nations. It, Is declared to be a conviction of, the delegates that no definite pro-I posal can be made until certain definite questions have been an- swered by the congress. Such questions as the re-ar- rangement of boundaries, the as- sumption of indemnities and repara- tion, and the creation of constituted authority, are regarded as the bas- is of the treaty of peace, and not 1 only the American delegates, but al- so the British and French delegates are understood to be of the opinion that these questions can be safely composed in special peace treaties, but must be founded on the gen- eral principles forming the basis of a league of nations. Delegates May Leavye Soon Another consideration is that if the treaty of peace is signed first, there will be little disposition among the delegates to linger in Paris to complete a league of nations. Vaccination Urged by Health Service Three new cases of pneumonia and one death, all among people between 20 and 30 years old, have been re- ported to the University Health serv- ice during the last 24 hours.

LOANS FOR WOMEN' NOW OBTAINABLE Final Score 21-13; Minnesota On Other Undefeated Conference Team Michigan's basketball team was d feated by Chicago 21 to 13, at the Mi way, last evening. 4The Wolverine fought hard but the Maroons on the own floor were too much for Mitchel team. Makes Third Straight Victory Taking the lead early in the gam it was soon apparent that Chica was going to make it their thi straight win. Gorgas, the Maroon ce ter, played thestar game of the e ning. His floor work was exceptio: al and had it not been for the b veteran, Michigan might have carri away the honors. Karpus performed well for MiU igan worrying the opposing guar by clever dodging. The Wolverin were poor on shooting and lost nu erous baskets which should have be made. Both Cohn and Williams a: played their usual good game, the 1 ter being the biggest factor in keepi the Maroon's score so low. May Win Conference Title Chicago appears to have a good o portunity for the Conference til Their team is composed of veters and their teamwork, is unusual. M nesota is the only quintet which nc remains undefeated excepting Chic go, and they will be one of the tea which will probably be fighting f the title at the end of the seasc Illinois, although having been defe ed in their first game, is another te; that is composed of veterans and feared by the Maroons. Northwestern Next Rival The Wolverines will play Northwe ern at Evanston this evening. Coa Mitchell believes his team to have good chance for an even br'eak on t trip, expecting to have little trou defeating the Purple. S. A. T. C.
