ture degree in 1893.

paration of this work, it is prom-
ised. He has written several books
on England and English literature,
two of which have been translated
into English. One of these, "Brit-
ain and the War,"' was prefaced by
Rudyard Kipling.

and on Hindu thought. In addition,
he has traveled extensively in
Egypt, Syria, Morroco, Tunis, Al-
giers, Europe, and the United
States, Prdfessor Thieme says. He

EVANSTON, Ill., Feb. 11.-North-

handicap in the last two minutes
to defeat Michigan by a single

tie with Purdue and Wisconsin for
the lead in the Big Ten race.
Michigan held a three point lead
