PRICE THR MICHIGAN BEATEN BY NORTHWESTERN AFTER HOT TUSSLE DEFENSIVE PLAY IS STRONG POINT ON EACH TEAM FINAL SCORE 17-16; TIE AT END OF HALF (arpus and Williams Bright Lights for Michigan; Eison Back on Purple Sqnad (Special to The Daily) Chicago, Jan. 25.- Michigan lost t6 Northwestern by one point in a Western Conference basketball game at Evanston tonight. The final score was 17 to 16. The contest was one of the most bitterly fought games played by a Big Ten five this year. Michigan played a great uphill game in the first half, and succeeded in tieing the score at the end of the half, after Northwestern had seem- ingly secured a safe lead. The second half produced a re- markable 20 minutessof defensive play. Each side shot' one field] goal and Northwestern made two foul throws good to Michigan's one, giving the Purple and White team the leadi Play Half for Seven Points By this time the fierceness of the contest grew to white heat, so much so that the careful guarding resulted in many held balls being called, one after another, before the ball was free on one side's possession for a pass. Team work, brains, and sheer weight were all utilized by both teams during the second half. For 20 min- utes the men battled for a score, and when the referee blew his whistle, Northwestern was out in front by one point, obtaining four counters to the Wolverines' three that half. Karpus Star of Game Karpus was one of the Michigan stars in the game. He succeeded in piling up three field goals and shoot- ing six fouls out of a possible 11. Williams was also one of the Maize and Blue stars. He made one field basket for the Wolverines. Weiss, the crackerjack left forward, was sub- stituted for Rychener. He was strong on the defensive but was unable to find his shooting eye. Northwestern Strong Team Marquardt, the Purple and White captain, was one of the strongest players on the Northwestern quin- tet. He scored four field baskets. Eilson, formerly a member of the 1918 Great Lakes football eleven, played well in the team work for Northwestern. The Purple team showed a great improvement, and the variety of game played tonight puts her in the run- ning for the Big Ten honors. The summries: Michigan, Pos.

The offer comes at a time when the bolsheviki are victorious in the field. The Bolsheviki officers do not reject the principles of the confer- ence. Valdimair Bouitzess, a well known Russian revolutionist in an article to the Matin says the Russian parties op- posed to the bolsheviki will positive- ly refuse to attend the conference on Prince's Islands because they look on the bolshevik as traitors to the Fa- therland and as murderers who have' dishonored Russia. Basile Maklakoff, the Russian am- bassador to France, the article adds, declares that .all Russians in Paris feel deeply humiliated by the propos- al from the Allied and the associat- ed powers. The article adds that only the bolsheviki will profit by such a conference. eery Character i In .Fiction There The Fancy Dress party held by the Women's league last night in Bar- bour gymnasium was a gathering of] Mother Goose rhymes and every im- aginable character of romance. Every one of them was there from the Cream of Wheat chef to the adver- . tisement for "Fatimas." Each of the sororities, league hous- es, and dormitories was represented by a group in the opening grand pro- cession which was led by Cornelia Clark, '21, in gypsy costume and by Olive Smith, '21, in colonial garb. After the procession and the stunts the judges announced the prize win-" ners. The prize for the cleverest group was awarded to Cinderella, and her haughty sisters and cour- tiers, presented by the Caryatides. Honorable mention was given' to the Whole D-- family, the Tri Delts. The cleverest individual proved to be the Wounded Soldier in the Red Cross group, Mrs. Ideson of the Homeopath- ic Training school. The prettiest por- trayal was that of Juanita Waite's. She came as a Colonial Dame in Blue. The prize for the ugliest was awarded to Miss Rumses of the University Hospital Training school, who came as the bloodiest pirate that was ever seen. The funniest character was the Darky in the District School, in real life Margaret Reynolds, '22M. When it came to stunts, the fresh-r men carried away the prize, with a version of Red Riding Hood. The so- phomores, who received honorable mention, portrayed returned soldiers attempting to take back from women their old positions. TWO CAMPUS POETS IN NEW ANTHOLOGY Two short poems by Michigan un- dergraduates are reprinted in the 1917-1918 edition of "The Poets of the Future," ,an anthology of college verse compiled by Henry T.' Schnittkind and published by the Stratford Com- pany, Boston. Michigan is represented in the lat- est edition of the book by the short ,poem, "A Cavalier Song," by Gladys Goshorn, '19, and by "An Episode of the Persian Wars," by Lucille Quar- ry, '18. Both of these poems were published in The Inlander. A new edition of this book is pub- lished annually. It includes the best and most promising work of Amer- ica's young college poets as it ap- pears in the campus literary publica- tions, or as it is contributed by the heads of the various rhetoric and English departments. *Z,7 No Leniency for Campus Veterans Examinations will be' no easier CONFERENCE UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTI. LEAGUE OF NATIONS PROJECT AFTUGN 0HS-gE URGNT DDRSS ADEBy WII during the approaching season ofI bluebooks because the S. A. T. C. made study difficult this fall. Grades will be determined exactly as in pre- vious years with the. single excep- tion that an instructor may at his discretion give a former S. A .T. C. or naval unit man the grade of "dropped" instead of "E." This ac- tion was adopted Dec. 2 and faculty members will receive instructions to that effect this wee.. thNo credit unless earned, will be the motto governing the coming audit of the instructors' books, according to Registrar A. G. Hall. This will be interpreted to mean that the man who has made a determined effort to catch up the work lost during the military regime stands a chance of saving his other credits and remain- ing in school through Ahe "dropped" grade; but he who has earned an '"E" by neglect will have to take it. Registrar Hall states that the ex- tra week transferred from the second semester to the end of the first was expressly intended for the conven- ience of army and navy men who are making a sincere effort to save their grades. STUDENTS HEALTHY BUT VACCINE AIDS Only 20 new cases of influenza and three of pneumonia have been record- ed by the University Health service since the opening of college on Jan. 7. The one death did not occur from pneumonia, as reported, but was the result of an acute attack of pleurisy. Dr. W. H. Forsythe, the head of this service, says that on the whole, health conditions are good. He would not venture an opinion as to whether the warm weather had exerted a bene- ficial influence. While the pneumonia vaccine, dis- tributed by thegovernment, has not been tested to any great extent, it is said to make one immune to many types of the disease. It is adminis- tered in the form of a hypodermic in- jection; only one shot is given. Any student may receive it by' applying at the Health service. BOARD'S DENIAL The sensational story about card playing in The Mich- igan Daily offices, which has ap- peared in some of the papers of the state, has for its founda- tion, only that three students were involved in one game of cards. No other card playing has come to the attention of the Board in Control of Student Publications. Signed, E. R. SUNDERLAND, Board Manager. LOCAL DANCER SCORES HIT IN POLISH CONCERT SLAVIC ARTISTS PRESENT PRO- GRAM OF MUSIC AND DANCES Characteristically Polish were all of the numbers of the program given last night in the High School audi- torium by local and visiting talent, under the auspices of the Cosmopoli- ton club. The most artistic parts of the pro- gram were the dances executed by Miss Jeanette Kruszka of Ann Arbor and Miss Elsie Kouieczna, a pupil of Pavlowa. The quality of Miss Krusz- ka's work appears slightly better in a comparison allowed through the, similarity of the dances chosen by the two artists. Most praiseworthy in her dancing is its unusual expres- siveness. Miss Kouieczna displays an agility and grace seldom found in so young a dancers Miss Kowalska Pleases Miss Anna Kwalska's pleasing and sweet soprano appears at its best in a particularly brilliant passage in the aria from "Halka." Her notes are especially clear in the upper regis- ter. Miss F. Szulczewska rendered Chopin's "Scherzo, B flat minor, O. 31" to the delight of the entire audi- ence. Though the pianist fails to color the mu'sic with her own per- sonality, her technique is". beyond fault. Violinist Plays with Ease Mr. Jan Szulczewski, violin vir- tuoso; executed with unexpected ease a very difficult selection. The photographic slides of Polish scenes shown at the beginning of the performance rather taxed the pa- tience of the audience. The speaker delegated to explain the views either forgot the majority of the descrip- tions or relied too much on the im- agination of his audience. UNION ISSUES CALL FOR MORE VAUDEVILLE TRYOUTS Additional tryouts for the Spot- light. Vaudeville, to be given by the Union for the benefit of the Michigan branch of the University union in Paris, will be held at 7 o'clock Mon- day evening at the old Union build- ing. Everyone who tried out last Wed- nesday and all others who wish to try out are urged by the committee to be on hand. While there were a large number at the last tryout and much promis- ing talent was shown, the committee believes many more students are ca- pable of producing acceptable acts.
