BRITISH FEELING FOR
S WORLD LEAUE WH TE.
SEES SOLUTION OF IRISH DIFFI.
CU1TY THROUGH VIEWS
0 CONSERVATIVES
"The change in sentiment 'towardl
the English position .in the world is
without doubt the greatest of all
changes in Great Britain during the
last four or five eyars of warfare and
reconstruction," states Hon. Alexander
Frederick Whyte, member of the
Brtish parliament, who spoke on
"Changing England" in the Natural,
Science auditorium Monday afternoon.
Outlook Broadening
"The rank and file of British de-
mocracy have altered their opinion of'
England's 'splendid isolation' policy
in favor of the greater international
policy-the League of Nations. The
intensity +f belief in the league as a
guarantee against war has been caus-
ed by the five million young men who
fough in the war for five years and
do not care to undergo such awful
experiences again."
Three Changes Noted
Mr. Whyte brought out three other
great changes in England as a result
of the conflict, the general accept-
ance of woman's suffrage, the differ.-
ent attitude toward labor and the la-
bor party and the Irish question.
The solution of the Irish 4ifficulty
Mr. Whyte foresees in .the nar fu-
ture. The canging sentiment is caus-
ed not by a y action of Ireland, but
by the new views taken by the Con-
servative party, which, adopting a
policy of independence'}and assistance
to small European states, could not
overlook the conditions so near, at
hand and have hence altered their
feeling toward home rule.

President..
M"IMPROVES IN I
Wolverines Win Three in Five From
State's Strongest Basketball
Quintets
BASKET SHOOTING AND TEAM
PLAY SHOW IMPROVEMENT
"Michigan's playing in the holiday
basketball trip was highly satisfac-
tory and the result was even better
than was anticipated by Coach Math-
Such was the statement that Captain
Rychener made to characterize the
holiday trip made by the Michigan
court five during the vacation.
rOn the first' night of vacation the
~Wolveriues dropped a disappointing
game to the Western Normal quintet,
'27 to 14. The Michigan forwards were
able to throw only three field baskets
because of the brilliant defense that
the teachers displayed.
On Dec. 31, Michigan played the
'Oakland Motor team at Pontiac, win-
ning 20 to 9. The feature of this come-
back was Michigan's strong five man
4efense that the auto makers were un-
,able to pierce. Rea and Dunne prov-
ed to be excellent scoring machines
and threw the majority of the bask-
ets.
Flint Team Defeated
On New Year's day the Varsity went
to Flint and, played the Champion
Ignition team, one of the most pow-
erful fives in the state. On account
of Michigan's accurate basket shoot-
ing, and a good five man defense the
Varsity gained a favorable verdict, 34
to 15. Dunne and Rychener were the
bright stars of the gam, the former
throwing six field goals. M. A. C. was
forced to play five minutes overtime
the previous Monday in order to win
from the Flint team, 29 to 28.
The two games played in Detroit
were the most satisfactory of the trip.
In the first Michigan overwhelmed the
Detroit' Athletic club 36 to 17, with
Dunne, Henderson, and Rea featuring
on the offense and the entire team
playing well defensively. Michigan
gave further signg of superiority over
M. 'A. C. owing to the fact that the
Aggies were defeated by the D. A. C.
team, 24 to 11.
Ray, Game Closer
The holiday series was finised in
the game lost to the Rayls, Jan. 3,
19 to 14. Michigan held the hard-
ware team even until the last few min-
utes of play, when the Detroit tea
went into the lead. As the Rayl team
is one of the strongest in the country,
Michigan's showing is highly gratify-
ing to followers of the Wolverine court
,game. On Dec. 26, Chicago played the
Rayls and were" defeated 33 to 21,
which gives Michigan a slight edge on
the Maroon five. J
The five games played this vacation
show that Michigan has made 'an im-
provement in every department of the
,game. Henderson, Rea, and Dunne
seem to have located the basket and
are dropping in five or six apiece in
