(By Associated Press)
SHANGHAI, March 11.-A grave
situation is brewing between the
Chinese government at Peking and
Soviet Russia over the seizure of the
Soviet vessel, Ramiat Lenina, a week
ago and the arrest of Mile. Borodin,
wife of the advisor to the Cantonese
government and three Russian cour-
iers.
The Soviet officials clearly mistrust
the assurances of the Chinese author-
ities as to the safety of the captives
and fear that Mile. Borpdin and her
fellow prisoners will meet short shrift
should they fall into the hands of
White Russians attached to the north-
ern army. Accordingly the Soviet
government has sent a second and al
sternernoteto Peking, warning that
the Soviet government will take ex-
treme measures should mischance be-
fall the Russians.
The note calls attention to lack of
definite information regarding the fate
of the Russians and says in conclu-
sion:
"The embassy of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics hereby declares
that the Chinese government will bear
full responsibility for the safety of
the couriers and other pe'rsons detain-
ed, and warns the Chinese government
that any violations of their safety
might certainly bring most serious
consequences and compel the Soviet
government to appeal to exceptional
measures."
Foreign Minister Wellington Koo at
Peking assured the Soviet charge de
affairs, M. Chernyck, that he had
nothing to fear for the safety of the
prisoners who are being detained at
Tsinan.
Meanwhile Great Britain and the.
United States are concerned over the
disorders in the city of Wuhu which
recently was captured by the Can-
tonese. Riots broke out there Tues-
day and Wednesday and a customs
houe was looted.
American Minister MacMurray ]as
directed the American consul-general I
at Hankow to draw up a protest fee
for presentation to the Cantonese au-
thorities against the looting of Amer-
ican mission property at Wuhu, while
the British government has made
representation to Foreign Minister
Eugene Chang regarding the disorders
there and asking him to protect Brit-
ish lives and property.

WINDSOR, March 11.-With the;

were to remain in the running for
the championship, Coach Barss' hock-
ey team presented a stubborn de-
fense to the league lading Mninesota

time period, scored the only goal of
the game to win 1-0. The Michigan;
team mets the Gophers again tonight ,
in a game here, and must win in
order to gain a tie for hte title.
After the Wolverines had gotten
off to a slow start, with Minnesota's'
defense outstanding, Coach Barss'
players tightened the defense, and
with Gabler, Maney and Hooper lead- !
ing the attack, managed to hold an
advantage during the later period of
the game.
The Michigan score came in the 1

when Gabler carried the puck down
the ice, and then passed to Sibilsky,;

Two accidents occurred in the
course of the game. Hooper, Michigan,
center, was carried from the ice just
before the close in the first period
when he collided with Scott, Min-

play in the second period.,
Scott, who starred at right defenseI
throughout the entire game, fell head-
long against a brick wall just outside
the playing arena, in the middle of the
second period, and though he remain-

siderably.1

Adverlising oveltes
Stating as a general rule, regard-
ing the liability of an automobile dri-
ver toward a passenger who is his
guest, the decision of a court that "the
owner or operator of an automobile
owes the duty to an invited guest to
exercise reasonable care in its opera-
tion, and not unreasonably to expose
him to danger and injury by increas-
ing the hazard of travel," Prof Her-
bert F. Goodrich. of the Law school,
in his radio speech last night explain-
ed that when the driver is guilty of
negligence in his driving and the ac-
cident is thereby his fault he is liable
to amnages from his injuredparties.
There are two qualifications to this
rule, it was pointed out. The first
has to do with the case of relation-
ship between the driver and passen-
gei where ordinarily it would be im-
possible for one to sue the other. The
case of husband and wife was cited.
However, now that theresare insur-
ance companies that issue' liability
"policies, the wife may have the oppor-
tunity to collect from the insurance
company even though it was her hus-
band that drove the care at the time
of the accident. The rule, thus far, Pro-
fessor Goodrich showed, has been
that even in such a situation the
courts have refused to hold the insur-
ance companies liable.
Guest May Be Barred From Recovery
The second qualification is that
where the guest may be barred from
recovery against a careless driver by
his own contributory negligence.
"Just how much back seat driving the
passenger must do in order that he
shall not be considered negligent is
not very clear," the speaker explain-
ed. "However, if a passenger know-
ingly entrusts his safety to an incom-
petent or intoxicated driver, he cannot
get damages if the driver's negligence
results in injury to him."
"The University of Michigan was the
first higher institution in the United
States to accredit high schools," stat-
ed Prof. James B. Edmonson, of the
School of Education and inspector of
high schools, in the second of the
talks on the Michigan Night Radio
program. The first schools to be ap-
proved were Adrian, Ann Arbor, De-
troit Central, Jackson, and Flint and
those in 1871, he continued.
The work of examining schools is
performed by selected members of the
faculties of the literary college, en-
gineering college, architectural col-
lege, and School of Education. "The
reports of the various schools are
examined by the University commit-
tee on accredited schools, consisting
of certain administrative officers, and
I this body determines the recognition
that will be extended a given school."
The committee this year made the fol.
lowing recommendations, Professor
Goodrich said in forming his conclu-
sions as to the value of such a plan.
"It is recommended that higher
qualifications be demanded of teach-
ers employed to fill future vacancies.
i~Raankin Speaks
Best sellers have vogue, but seldom
have popularity, said Prof. Thomas E.
IRankin, of the rhetoric department,
in speaking on "Permanency and Pop-
ularity in Literature." They are ad-
vertising novelties rather than either
popular or permanent books.
A book has a strong appeal for the
average reader when it provides him

with something after which to pat-
tern his life, for the life of the ave-
rage man or woman it patterned after
1 what is found in literature much'
I more than literature is patterned af-
ter the configurations of life is the be-
lief of Professor Rankin. Also the
average reader wishes to read a book
which contains what is to him either
quite familiar or strangely unfamiliar,
but a book which presents only fa-
miliar things, if it would be immortal,
must be distinguished for good style,
the speaker further asserted.
"Books will be popular and perma-
nent if the author himself possesses
interest in and love for humanity, and
if he reveals this fact in a plain and
simple way. A book is popular which
interests, instructs, and thrills the
average man. It will be permanent if
it contains what is worth saying to
any reader, and if it has been written
with sensitiveness, energy and grace,"
Professor Rankin said in summation.
