opening game of the season last night

ing Spartans 43 to 40 before more
than 8,000 fans in the Yost Field .
House.
The Wolverines shot to an early
lead and never were headed, but the
determined visitors, led by their
brilliant sophomore forward, Marty
Hutt, put on a scoring flurry in the
final seven minutes to give the Var-
sity an uneasy last period.
Varsity Leads At Half
Michigan led 29 to 20 at the half -
way mark but in the second frame
their offense bogged down and they
scored only three times from the
floor. The Wolverines' accuracy
from the foul line proved to be the
margin of victory as repeated Spar-
tan violations gave them ample op-
portunity to add needed points.
Michigan's all-conference captain
John Townsend led the Wolverine ( '
attack with four field goals and five , ;":
fouls for 13 points. Only Hutt, JOHN TOW
State's big scoring threat at all times,
bettered this. His contribution to,
the Spartan cause was seven field H ockey
goals and one foul for a very im- ~- " '
pressive 15 points in his second col- S
legiate contest. iSc re

Plans For Peace
Will Be Continued-
GENEVA, Dec. 12.-(Sunday)-()P)
Italy's withdrawal will jolt the League
of Nations but will not prove a knock-
out blow-such was the general view
expressed at Geneva today after
Premier Mussolini made his dramatic
but expected announcement.
Informed sources said Rome's ac-
tion should expedite the plan for re-
forms through which many countries
hope to make the League universal.
Mussolini has boycotted the league
ever since his invasion of Ethiopia and
Geneva sources regarded his with-
drawal as merely taking formal cog-
nizance of an existing fact.
"Italy is more honest in resign-
ing in view of her recent League boy-
cott," one newspaper said.
Italy's withdrawal cannot be ef-
fective for two -years because the
League covenant requires a prelim-
inar.y notice of resignation. That was
what Italy gave last night.
Germany and Japan both resigned
from the League because of the
League's attitude toward them-Ger-
many because of failure of the dis-
armament conference to grant her
equality of rights and Japan because
she was condemned for her invasion
of Manchoukuo.
ROME, Dec. 11.-(A)-Italy with-
drew tonight from the League of Na-
tions but announced her determina-
tion to continue to collaborate for
peace.
The action, decided upon at a
seven-minute meeting of the Fascist
grand council, was proclaimed by Pre-
mier Benito Mussolini from the bal-
cony of the Palazzo Venezia.
One of the greatest crowds ever as-1
sembled in the vast square in frontI

Foresee No Relief
(By The Associated Press)
Community-paralyzing blizzards in
the East and rising storm floods in
California, linked with disastrous
gales at sea, caused at least 77 deathk
last night (Saturday) as winter
struck most of the Northern Hemi-
sphere.
Hundreds were left homeless in
northern California, and in the fer-
tile Sacramento Valley crops, live-
stock and houses were swept away in
the three-to-seven inch deluge that
sent river stages to dangerous levels.
The worst storm disaster occured
in Europe, near Castlecary, Scotland,
where rescue workers dug for the
bodies of still more victims in
Britain's biggest railway wreck in 22
years. Thirty bodies were taken
irom the debris of the crack Scot-
tish express which smashed into the
rear of another passenger train dur-
ing a blinding snowstorm.I
Ten Die In New York
Upstate New York felt the full
brunt of the American storm, with
10 known dead. The Federal Gov-
ernment authorized the use of Na-
tional Guard troops to help storm-
isolated Erie County communities
"dig out."
A new blizzard hampered rescue
work amid already huge snowdrifts
north of Buffalo.
"Some of the families are even
burning furniture to keep warm, one
relief party reported, after a visit to
suburban Buffalo.
Pennsylvania counted 14 dead.
Aside from Buffalo, other parts of
New York State reported four storm
fatalities.
At sea, the $8,000,000 liner Presi-
dent Hoover was aground on a reef
near Formosa. Capt. E. Stepbach,
said the_ big ship was. "bumping
heavily" and "leaking badly." Sev-
eral hundred passengers were takenj
off.
Boat Capsizes In Channel
In the English Channel, a 70-mile
gale capsized the motorship Gothic
with the loss of two lives. Two oth-
ers were rescued by the steamship
American Banker.
Violent winds crashed a British
air force bomber on the beach at
Portland, England, killing two fliers.
Snow that had blocked motor traf-
fice for three days in portions of
western Michigan was finally cleared
Sfromthe highways today but no im
mediate relief was in prospect for the~
state from the cold wave.
The United States Weather Bu-
reau predicted that the chilling
weather of the last few days, cold-
est of the current winter, would con-
tinue for at least several days.

More than 150 students will sell
Goodfellow Dailies for 10 hours to-
morrow, on campus and downtown, in
the third annual Goodfellow drive
to provide Christmas cheer and year
'round assistance to needy students,
families and hospital patients.
Campus honorary societies and
publications have again supplied the
recruits for the selling force to reach
the goal they have set at $1,800,
$150 more than was obtained last year
and $475 more than two years ago.
The fund was conceived as a single
drive in which all students might
combine their efforts to aid both needy
students and families, as well as hos-
vital patients. The distribution of
the funds is as follows:
1. The Social Service Department
of the University Hospital will receive
$150 to purchase toys, pictures, addi-
tional work shop facilities and bools
for underprivileged patients. These
needs are not met by state funds
available for medical and surgical
care for these patients.
2. Twenty-five per cent of the re-
maining funds will go to the Deans'
Discretionary Fund to help needy stu-
dents.
3. The rest of the money will be
sent to the local Family Welfare Bu-
reau to be used for the purchase of
Christmas baskets and clothes for Ann
Arbor families and for the year-round
work of the Bureau.
Progress has already been made
in the collection and pledging of con-
tributions by more than 75 fraterni-
ties, sororities, dormitories and league
houses. Those who have not already
made a pledge may do so by calling
the Goodfellow Editor any time today
after 2 p.m. Fraternities and soror-
ities calling today will have Goodfel-
low Dailies and tags delivered to them
before 8 a.m. tomorrow. The names
of houses pledging today will be found
in Tuesday's Daily.
The following fraternities, soror-
ities, dormitories and league houses
have already contributed to the Good-
fellow Fund or have pledged their con-
tribution and will receive their papers
and tags early tomorrow morning.
