HARVEY ON NOTE
' English' Earl Presents Graceful Reply
To Amibassador's Ob.
jeetions
U[ES TACT IN DECLARING
MATTER SOULD BE DROPPED
London, March 9-(By A.P.)-The
Earl of Balfour yesterday delivered
his reply to the strictures Ambassador
Harvey passed on his famous note to
the former Allies on the subject of
inter-allied debts. Lord Balfour spoke
in the calm and almost unmoved at-
mosphere customary in the House of
Lords.
Speaks Tactfully
Lord Balfour took unusual care in,
the explanation, fortifying himself
with copious notes and thus signal-
izing his recognition of the delicacy of
the task.:Ie dealt gracefully- andtact-
fully with the subject, to leave no H
rankling behind.
. Saying that when the note was or-
iginally prepared it .was dealing with}
"the most difficult, the most danger-
ous and the most anxious question ofj
international ifldebtedness," lie quoted
the passage Ambassador Harvey ob-
1jected to as follows:
"Thie United States insisted, in sub-
stance, if not in form, that though oui
allies were to spend the money it was
only on our security that they wer;
prepared to lend it."
Seeks to Correct Error
Lord Balfour opened his remarks
with an expression of the belief that
I considering momentous changes since
his note was penned, it would have
been preferable to allow the matter
to rest, but he thought the House
would agree that when a person in the
high position of Ambassador Harvey
publicly expressed the desire that the
present British government should
formally and explicitly remove misap--
prehension, silence on his part would
lead to a misunderstanding.I
New York, March 9-(By A.P.)-
Oscar T. Crosby, assistant Secretary
of the Treasury during the war, char-
; acterized today as "misapprehension"
the assertion of Lord Balfour yester-
lay in the House of Lords that the
United States had demanded a Brit-
ish guarantee before financing the
other Allies.I

and Day
Action on the part of the Board in
Control of Athletics to name the new
field house after Coach Fielding H.
Yost will be taken today. A commit-
tee from the Student council will pre-
sent its petition for the dedication of
the new plant before the board which
meets at 12:30 o'clock this afternoon
The petition may be acted upon by the
board immediately or plaed on the
table for further discussion.
The presentation of the petition
follows the receipt of hundreds of
petitions that have been submitted by
students, faculty members, and alum-
ni throughout the country to the
council asking that the new home of
Michigan athletics be named after the
"Old Man".
Detroit Responds
Practically every active alumni as-
sociation in the country has passed
resolutions or its members set i
dividual recommendationss favbring
the suggestion. This includes .:the
larger alumni organizations of .New
York, Chicago, Detroit and as- far
west as Seattle and -Portland, and all
of the smaller bodies as well.
The first action taken by alumni
was by the Detroit group on Jan..24,
just five days after the campaign had
been inaugurated by the Student
council and petitions circulated. The
Detroit alumni resolution gives as its
reasons why the field house should be
named after Yost the following main
points:
"That Coach Yost is the most prom-
inent figure connectsi 4 /itlic l, giatte
athletics in the United States today;
that his followers have long sought
for a means of showing their appre-
ciation of his varied services; and
that it was due to his efforts: that the
new field house was conceived -and- is
being built."
Prominent Alumni Approve
Other alumni organizations passed
resolutions more or less a-long this
same line all praising Yost as the Oe
logical choice for the honor. Many
letters have been received from men
well known in public affairs all en-
dorsing the same opinion. Some of
these were from William R. Day, '70,
former justice of the United States
Supreme court, Senator Woodbridge
N. Ferris, Regent Junius E. Beal, '82,
Regent James O. Murfin, '95, 'Gov.
Alexander J. Gtoesbeck, '93, and
Steward Edward White, '95.
A recent letter from E. J; Ottaway,
'94, president of the Port Huron times
Herald, expresses, in the eyes of the
council, the representative attitude of
the great majority of thousands of
Michigan men and women, undergrad-
nates and alumni. The letter reads
as follows:
"I have let my mind run over the
years of athletic history since my day
at the University and I cannot thi-k
of any name that means so much In
athletics rs the name of Yost, n t
only for athletics in general but for a
very high type of athletic standard,
personally among the ' students he
trains and generally in - connection
with the University athletic program.
I have tried to think of some of the
outstanding athletic stars whose name
might be used. I can think of sev-
eral whose names have meant very,
much in Michigan athletic history and
whose achievements since leaving the
University, in peace and war, :;have
led us to think more and more of
them as the years have gone by, and
yet in spite of this, my conviction is
that the nanie of Yost should take
precedence of all others."
