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.

HARRY B. HUTCHINS, 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 MINNESOTA FACULTY REGA LOSS OF PRESIDENT BURTO AS A CALAMITY ALUMNI'ALSO APPROV SELECTION OF BOA Pres. hutchins Will Conclude 'Years' Work at. higan Whe He Gives Way to Successor Aaculty opinion is unanimous i hearty approbation of the Reg choice of Dr. Marion L.
