The dopewas upset in both games, the Goph­ers being overwhelmed by a score of:!7 to 2, and the lIlini holding Gcor­gen's five to a 17 to 15 tally.TIle result of the Gopher gamewas the surprise of the season. Pastperformances pointed to a hard fightfor victory, and the absence of PatPage from the line-up strengthenedt he conviction that a close scorewould result. The game, however,proved a walk-away, the Gophers be­ing outclassed at every stage. In thecase of the IlIini, a close game waslooked for, but nothing like theheart-rending struggle which tookplace,Championship CinchedThe results of these contests aresignificnnt, inasmuch as it is thoughtthat the Western championship isnow cinched for the Maroon live. Allthe Conference teams have now beenbeaten by Chicago, which alone hasa clean slate to its credit. \Vhile.Minnesota, _Illinois and Wisconsin allhave to be met in a second round ofcontests, Dr. Rayeroft expects to: J'<.nu((hi��__js�fficient..sbape­to hold the lead it now possesses. Aswas the case last year, Wisconsin isthe only team to be feared. The Bad­gers lost in the first game, only aftera bitter struggle, .and a hot fight islocked for when the' two fives meetagain.. �phera -fooled by TrickSeveral surprises were sprung Fri­day night, although the game ,!"as farfrom exciting at any period. Hub­ble, who took Pat Page's place atguard, played a star game.' Besidesgetting four baskets, he was a towerof strength on defense. Joy Clarke,who played in his first Varsity con­test, also played in brilliant form.The poor showing of the Gophersis due, to a great extent, to a changein the tactics of the Maroons. Whilethe entire Minnesota five was playingfor Schommer, the Maroon style ofplay was so shifted as to place theresponsibility of throwing baskets onII ubble and Clarke, Schommer andGeorgen played back and fed thehalls to the guards, and thus com­pletely fooled the Gophers.

He showed that in many re­spects the dreams of many years agohave been carried out into actualpractice in our aile.Tells of -ExtravaganceHe then dealt on the Hague peaceconference.•• At the present rate of appropria­tion, our national treasury will have adeficit of $135.000,000 at tile end ofDelta Sigma Rho. at Annual Ban- the year," said Mr. Beals, "and it isquet Tonight. Will Break from just this amount that we are intend-Corle of National Body-Initiations ing to spend- in the construction ofIn, Order. - --new ·battleships. What danger is soimminent that· we must thus bank­rupt our nation? From Japan wehave nothing to fear. She is only. spending one-third· as much on arm­ament as we. A year ago she enteredupon a policy of retrenchment 'and inten years she will have saved $200,-000,000 for education . and other pur­poses.'TIl': cost required to fire our bigpieces of ordinance is terrible. Tofire one of our large cannons, it costsas much as the average school-ma'mearns in five ·years."Calls Cruise Unca1led ForMr. Beal then talked about thecruise of the battleship fleet aroundthe world. He showed the exorbi­tant cost of the undertaking, and alsothe bad influence it will have on thenations, such as Chili, Brazil and other -South American countries."Instead of being a missionary ofpeace, our country has assumed theopposite role, and by its display ofarmed strength, has persuaded the.nations it has visited to turn back­wards and return to building agentsof destruction. The heathen nationsof China and Japan alone refuse tobe moved or influenced by our showof strength, and quietly pursue theirway in t he paths of peace."".ES" Me.. 10."-"".5 Foae;er TN •••T"oueLU (i.e., paoPtltT'f L) AT "",."T,..-..IQ; "" Y .�.n-- • AU. t4"T".1......
