The win kept the Wol- verines in the thick of the Western Conference title race. The Hoosiers, never ahead, fought doggedly to tie the score twice, at seven all in the first half and again at twenty all in the second, after Michigan held a 14 to 13 edge at the half. Garner and Eveland then took charge, however, the center hitting twice and the forward three times to put the game out of reach, Lehrt, forward, and Weir, guard,{ led the Hoosiers with three basketsI Money Taken From Tru Funds Has Replace Payments Of Studen1 During Last Semester 636 Outstanding Notes Are Unpai( No Immediate Action I Planned Against Thos Delinquent In Payments Authorities State 315 New Students Enroll Will Try To Reach Accor As Classes Open; 66 In Econonic Field A Change Colleges Washington Meeting New registrations in the schools LONDON, Feb. 13.-(')--Completely and colleges of the University for reversing Great Britain's debt stan this semester rose to 315 yesterday as voiced by Chancellor of the Ex as classes opened.

Changes in registration and the de- crease of 66 students over last year were proportionate among the sev- eral schools and colleges with those with the largest enrollment showing the largest registration changes. The offices of the recorder were crowded throughout the day with an unusually large number of students busy with changes in classification. Members of the staff were forced to work overtime last night to take care of the recording of the classifi- cation changes. On Thursday, Feb. 9, 93 new reg- istrations left a decrease of 64 from the corresponding time last year.

Good Will hid Reaches More Th an $2,000 appiroach to the problem with the United States. Economists who evolved a tentative program for the world economic con- ference, which is to be held sometime this summer with Mr. MacDonald' presiding, divided their detailed rec- ommendations into six primary sub- jects for discussion at that meeting. 1-Monetary and credit policy. 2-Prices. 3-Resumption of the movement of capital. 4-Restrictions on international trade. 5-Tariff and treaty policy. 6-Organization of production and trade. "Will the House have a general idea of what proposals the British government intends to ask the United States to discuss?" George Lansbury, floor leader of the Labor Party, asked the Prime Minister during the ques- tion period. "The agenda drawn up by the com- mittee of experts preparing for the world economic conference covers the field," Mr. MacDonald replied. Mr. Lansbury persisted: "This is very important. Will the Ilouse and the country be given any idea of the British proposals on the war debts?" "It has been stated again and again," said the Prime Minister, "that as far as war debts are concerned, we want an agreement with America which will enable us to pursue our European policy." The Labor leader continued to press him. "Surely," he said, "the Commons and the country are entitled to ask for a clear statement of the lines of the policy on war debts." The cross-examination was closed by the speaker at this point.I State Farmers Unite Avaiist Tax On Sales y The official address of welcome will d be given by Dean Herbert C.

The Governor announced his atti- tude in answering a telegram from H. B. Keydel, president of Michigan State College Club of Detroit, pro- testing against the proposed inquiry, The executive said the investigation i is needed to eliminate "an impres- sion" that the college was "white- washed" in previous inquiries. " am in favor of the investiga- tion," Governor Comstock said. "The impression exists that under the last administration it was 'whitewashed.' Whether this is true or not, a great many people think it is true. From every standpoint, including that of the college, I believe that an impar- tial and public investigation is the best way to arrive at the facts and let the people know what they are." Keydel's telegram, sent in behalf of the Michigan State College Club, expressed confidence in Dr. Robt. S. Shaw, president of the college. It stated the president should not be subjected to the adverse publicity that might accompany such an in- quiry.

Comstock Will Address Rally Public Sehool Problem Is To Be Subject Of Mass Meeting In Lansing i The possibility that hundreds o: students will be forced to drop ou' of school because of inability to pay i the deferred "sixty-forty" tuitior notes which are due today was seer last night when it was revealed by anl official source that 636 of the notes are still outstanding. Since under the terms of the state law the University is required tc I show a full paid tuition for every reg- istration, the notes were possible only through use of money taken from university trust funds. Since this money will have to be replaced students signing the notes must pay them or withdraw from the Univer- sity, unless somecmodification of the terms of the notes is passed. September Agreement According to the terms of the notes signed by the students in September, unless the loan is paid when due the student must withdraw from school and the University is further au- thorized in that event to discontinue its contact with him as a student. The notes were issued under a plan which has been in use several years. Upon payment of 60 per cent of his tuion alnd he promise to pay the remaining 40 per cent at the begin- ning of the second semester the stu- (lnt is admittecd to the University, Last year between 25 and 30 stu- dents were forced to leave because of inability to meet the 40 per cent pay- ment in February. This year 1541 notes were issued in September. This number is twice as great as the num- ber last year and with 636 notes still unpaid it is inevitable that a larger number may have to withdraw this year. Service Charge According to the terms of the notes a service charge of $1 or in- terest :at the rat of 6 perĀ° cent per Year is charged by the University for the deferring of the tuition. Under this plan the University can replace the money which was taken from the trust funds with a suitable in- tcrest return when the notes are paid. The income however is insuf icieit to pay for the additional clerical. work which has been necessitated by the increased number of deferred tui- tion loans this year. The University is in no danger of loss on the notes however in as much as a student withdrawing from the University at the beginning of the second semes- terh is etitled to a.40 per cent re- fund on is i5tuition. The $1 srvice charge is paid when the note is signed and upon inability of the student to meet the note in February the note takes the place of the money which otherwise would be refunded upon his withdrawal. No action will be taken by Univer- sity officials today regarding the.stu- dents holding the unpaid notes. In Tennis Mlatch Here WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.
