LONDON, Eng., Mar. 3.-Still
characterized by the inscrutibility
popularly associated with the
Orient, negotiations toward settle-
ment of the American-Japanese
naval problem moved forward
again today.
No phase of the London confer-
ence has been more heavily veiled
in secrecy than the informal con-
versations which have been pro-
ceeding since last week between
Senator Reed and Ambassador
Matsudaira.
Their task is to thresh out un-
officially between themselves an
agreement they are reasonably sure,
will be acceptable to their full
delegations. They are old friends
from Washington days, and it is
because of this informal nature of
their efforts that the American
delegation feels justified in resist-
ing all efforts to probe their ex-

Michigan Quintet, Off Form on Offense, Unable
to Cope With Onslaught of Visitors;
Murphy, Harmeson Lead Scoring.
By Edward L. Warner
Purdue's smoothly functioning basketball machine smothered Michi-
gm under a barrage of well-placed shots in Yost field house last night,
44-28, and thereby clinched the Conference cage title for 1930. The
sharpshooting Boilermakers ran up a big lead in the first half to lead
27-12 at the intermission, an advantage which they retained to thc fimsh
despite Michigan's better play in the final period. The Wolverines were
plainly off form on their offense, but it would have been difficult for any
team at the top of its form to cope with Purdue's accuracy in dropping
the ball through the meshes.
Capt. "Stretch" Murphy led his teammates in the victory which

outscored the entire Michigan
team. Wooden and Boots, Purdue
guards, contributed some clever
floor work and elusive dribbling,
while Kellar completed the strong
Boilermaker combination.
Michigan Determined.
Despite the one-sided score, the
game was hard-fought throughout,
Michigan trying gamely to over-
come the lead which resulted from
Purdues efficient attack in the
early Mutes. Joe Truskowski
was assigrmId the herculean task of
guarding Murphy, and he succeed-
ed fairly well despite the fact that
"Stretch" made good nearly every
one of his shots. "Truck" led the
Wolverines on offense with seven
points, while Frank Lovell was close
behind with three field goals.
Last night's game marked the
last appearance of Captain Chap-
man, Truskowski, Orwig, Lovell,
and Kanitz on the Michigan court.
Although he was five inches short-
er than his rival, Chapman prac-
I tically jumped on even terms with
his old high school teammate, Mur-
phy, at center. Purdue employed
an exceptionally close guarding
game which resulted in rough play
at times. The Boilermakers did not
give the Wolverines many opportu-
nities to score on close-in shots,
and Michigan's long attempts were
not finding the basket. Ten fouls
were called on the visitors, Johnny
Wooden leaving the game on per-
sonals.
Wolverines Near Purdue.
Purdue started by running the
score up to 5-1 in the first few min-
utes. Truskowski's hook shat and
free throw made it 5-4, the closest
Michigan came to leading all eve-
nimg. The Boilermakers then got
under way, collecting 16 points on
three baskets and a charity shot
by Harmeson, two baskets and a
pair of free throws by Murphy, a
field. goal by Boots, and a free
throw . by Wooden. Meanwhile
Michigan had scored twice on shots
by Lovell and "Truck." Chapman
and "Truck" each contributed a
foul throw to )make it 21-10.
Harmeson, Boots, and Kellar came
through with three successive bas-
kets and Lovell made the half score
27-12 when he caged a long one.
Michigan was only outscored by
one point in the second half, but
Purdue had its 15 point first half
lead to fall back on. Iarmeson

TO MARCH NUMBER OF GARGOYLE
Stephen Leacock, known as "the
Mark Twain of Canada," and one
of America's best known humorists,
has written an article which con-
stitutes one of the many new fea-
tures to appear in the March num-
ber of the Gargoyle, which will be
on sale on. the campus tomorrow.
This article finds Stephen Leacock
at his best, and will evoke the usual
quota of laughs and chuckles that
those who have heard Leacock lec-
ture in Ann Arbor, and those who
have read his articles expect from
his excellent humor.
Leacock's article is, however, but
which hires, fires, and legislates
about the campus.
Gargoyle's March number is char-
acterized by an unusual abundance
of photographs, features, and illus-
trations. George Lichtenstein, '29.
former art editor of the Gargoyle,
now a successful cartoonist whose
daily comic strip is widely syndicat-
