Playing effortless basketball for 40
minutes against a pitifully out-
classed Michigan Normal five, the
Michigan cage team broke the Yost
Field House scoring record last night,
running up 61 points to the Ypsi-
lanti quintet's 12.
Six thousand persons witnessed the
game, the first of the season for both
teams, and saw that Coach Cappy
Cappon has a strong team, with
plenty of material and a world of
passing ability, but discovered little
concerning the Varsity's defensive
skill or talents when the going is
tough.
Jake Townsend was the heart of
the Michigan offense, which was ob-
viously under wraps, setting up but
one screen formation all evening. His
blind passes, work off both back-
boards, ball-hawking, and general
"quarterbacking" proved that "Hou-
dini of the Hardwood" was no mis-
nomer.
Cappon Uses 13 Men
Cappon used 13 men and all of
them scored at least one field goal
with Capt. Johnny Gee topping the
scorers with 10 points despite the
fact that he had an off night. Herm
Fishman, flashy Detroit junior and
number one reserve last year, started
his first game with nine points while
Townsend was third with eight.
The starting players all turned in
satisfactory performances. G e e
couldn't hit the basket consistently
but never lost a tip-off and got his
share of the follow-in shots. Matt
Patanelli, starting his first game
since the 1934-35 season, was effec-
tive under the basket and looked good
on the few screen plays that the
Wolverines attempted.
Reserves Show Up Well
Ed Thomas, the Ishpeming soph-
omore who didn't even come out for
freshman basketball, played better
basketball every minute as he picked
up confidence. He can .handle his
speed and is a dangerous shot.
The reserves, who may be starters
tomorrow, held up their end of the
game. Danny Smick looked like
another Townsend at times as he
passed at the same dizzy angles.

King EdwardI
Still Resolved
To WedWally
Public Sympathy Aroused1
Through Mrs,. Simpson's
Renunciation Of Claim
Monarch Strives
To Make Decision
Minister Asserts King Is
Resolved To Have
Morganatic Marriage
LONDON, Dec. 8.-(Tuesday)--(P)
-King Edward's determination to1
wed Wallis Warfield Simpson re-t
mained unshaken early today, in-C
timates said, despite the American-f
born divorcee's public offer to givef
up the monarch to save his throne.
Although the public renunciationt
of her claim to Edward's love rousedt
a wave of popular sympathy, friends1
of both said the crisis of Britain's
far-flung empire was no nearer than
ever to solution.
The mon rlh, in the privacy of
the Fort Belvedere Lodge, seized uponr
the additional time' won from Primec
Minister Stanley Baldwin to strive
for some course of action that would
satisfy both his love and his duty to
the throne of his fathers.c
King Determinedt
Even before Mrs. Simpson issued
her statement in Cannes offering tot
sacrifice her love to Edward's empire,
all England knew from Baldwin's
speech that the King was resolved to
marry her, without, however,,.making
her England's queen.
"Mrs. Simpson's statement,"a high
quarter said, "has not solved the
crisis. Only action by the king him-,f
self now can terminate the situation."
Mrs. Simpson told the world of hert
readiness to sacrifice her love purely(
on her own volition, a high source inc
the realm said, andmembers ofthe
King's staff at Belvedere professed
ignorance of it until it was read tof
them by newspapermen.
It was believed that the Duke oft
York, who would be next in line forc
Edward's throne should the present
monarch step down from it, dined at
Belvedere last night.I
Black Shirtst
A car, from outward appearances
that of the Duke, left the snow-cov-
ered refuge of his majesty at 1 a.m.
Renewed activity at No. 10 Down-1
ing Street eai'lier indicated the King's[
representatives ag.in sought to
thresh the whole matter out with
Baldwin. Four men, in formal at-
tire, went into the historic building,
while police dispersed a group of
black-shirted singers of "God Save!
The King."
Adding to Edward's problems was'
the apparent strategy of Baldwin's
supporters to clamp down a "gag
rule" to prevent the king's champions
from presenting his side of the case'
to parliament before it is too late.
Baldwin's plan, some parliamen-
tarians said, was not to inform the
commons of what the King's decision
was until Edward had already car-
ried it out.1
Madrid Awaits
Fascist D riv e
In Razed Zone
MADRID, Dec. 7.-()-Madrid's
defense officials prepared tonight for
a fascist onslaught expected to fol-
low an artillery bombardment which
razed huge blocks of apartment
buildings.
As refugees streamed out of the
western outskirts of the city, the zone
of the most serious shelling, govern-,
ment officials predicted an insurgent
attack would come in that sector.
Fighting around Guadalajara,
northeast of Madrid, indicated the'
insurgents were seeking to smash
their way into the city from that
region also. Twenty-three fascist
planes bombod the area around Gua-
dalaj ara.
The ministry of state disclosed.
meanwhile, that the government had
asked immediate withdrawal of the
Finnish charge d'affaires in Madrid
because of "scandalous abuse of dip-
lomatic privilege."
The government, in a message to
the Helsingfors administration, as-I
serted the Finnish official threw handi
grenades from the windows of his
legation at. government troops be-
tween Dec. 1 and Dec. 3, stored arms
and ammunition in the building, and
harbored fascists who were not "en-
titled to diplomatic refuge."

special Goodfellow Daily will be
turned over to the Fund.
Baskets Distri'ited
Last year, Christmas food baskets
were distributed, clothes, shoes and
medical attention were provided by
the Goodfellows in time for the
Christmas celebration. The agency
of distribution was the Family Wel-
fare Bureau, which was enabled
through the Goodfellow check of $1,-
000, to continue its service of personal
care and family rehabilitation
throughout the year.
The remainder of the Goodfellow
fund, approximately $300, was turned
over to the Dean's Discretionary Fund
to be administered to students in
cases of emergency need's. The
amount was divided between the of-
fice of Dean Joseph A. Bursley and
Dean Alice C. Lloyd, in proportion
to the number of men and women
students.
The Michigan Daily Goodfellow
Award, a loving cup given by Burr,
Patterson & Auld, will be presented
again this year to the organization
showing the greatest cooperative
spirit in the Drive. Winner of the
Award last year was Senior Society.
Druids and Theta Delta Chi were
given honorable mention. Theta
Delta Chi led the fraternities with an
advance subscription of $34.

On Excavations
Enoch Peterson, curator of the
Egyptian section of the Museum of'
Classical Archaeology, will give a
talk on the University excavation in
Egypt before the Ann Arbor Library
club today at 7:45 p.m. in Room 110
General Library Building, according
to Frank R. Harrell, president of the I
club.1
The talk, which will be illustrated'
by several reels of film, will consider
the general development of the Uni-
versity's operations since 1923.
The motion pictures will give viewsi
of the ancient city of Karanis as it
exists today after the excavations,
will show some of the actual work,
done by the University and will pic-
ture some of the Egyptian life in the
villages of today, according to Mr.1
Peterson.I
Karanis, which was founded some-
time in the second century B.C. andi
which was vacated during the fourth1
century A.D. because the canals'
which had furnished the city water
failed to give further supply, had
never before been studied scientifi-
cally by any group, and the plans of
Karanis drawn up by the University
have been recognized as the finest
j that have been made on that district.-
Delegates To Conference
Meeting Says Officials
Only Delayed Action
Coaches Reported
To Favor Proposal
Wisconsin Daily Cardinal
Announces Its Support
Of New Movement
By FRED H. DE LANO
The Daily's campaign for a foot-
ball training table in the Western
Conference succeeded in having the
matter put before faculty representa-
ives of the Big Ten, most of whom, it
was learned yesterday, favored it but
delayed action until they could sound
out their local boards in control of
athletics.
This information came from Prof.
Lewis M. Gram, head of the civil
engineering department, who repre-
sented Michigan at the annual win-
ter meeting of the Big Ten in place
of Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, chairman
of the board here. Professor Aigler
spent the week-end ill in the Uni-
versity Hospital.
Directors Favor Plan
Professor Gram said that the mat-
ter of a training table was brought up
for discussion at the Saturday ses-
sion of the Conference meeting, but
did not reach a vote. He declared
that so far as he could learn, prac-
tically all of the athletic directors
and coaches appeared to be in sup-
port of the plan, and that the fac-
ulty representatives, on whom action
is incumbent, waited in order to get
the opinions of their local boards of
control of athletics.
From his remarks, it appeared that
the chances of a training table pro-
posal receiving better consideration
at the May meeting of the Big Ten
are good.
In an interview with Professor Aig-
ler, chairman of Michigan's Board in
Control of Athletics, last Thursday
it was learned that in former years
there has not even been enough sup-
port for the training table to war-
rant such deferring of action as took
place Saturday. A committee of fac-
ulty representatives will soon be ap-
pointed to look into the various
phases of the proposition, Gram said,
with final action coming during the
May meeting.
Backers Are Hopeful
Supporters of the plan have gained
much satisfaction from this turn of
events which indicates that the plan
is gaining il favor after being flatly

Price Of 'Ensian
Will Rise Shortly
All people intending to subscribe
to the Michiganensian were urged
last night by Frank T. Dannemiller,
'37, managing editor of the year-
book, to enter their orders now.
Pointing out that last year the En-
sian was sold out, he said the price
is still $4 but will shortly be raised to
$4.50.
Dec. 18 is the deadline for taking
of senior pictures, Dannemiller an-
nounced.
Graduate students who wish to
have their senior undergraduate pic-
tures from former years used in the
1937 'Ensian may have reprints made
for $2 at one of the three official
photographers, Frank Dannemiller,
'37, editor of the 'Ensian announced
yesterday.
Instead of paying the usual $3 rate
for the'reproduction of a new photo-
graph, graduate students who are
satisfied with their undergraduate
pictures should take advantage of
this offer, Dannemiller said.
