INTEREST IN CONTEST RISINGVarsity Show Great ImprovementOver Past Form-Expectto Beat Gophers. '(Special.)Minnesota probably clinchedthe basketball championship ofthe Conference last night by de­feating Illinois at Champaignby the score of 22 to 9. Illinoiswas easy for the Gophers.For the first time in the history ofthe Universjty the Conference bas­ketball championship will be decidedon a Bartlett floor Saturday when the:\Iaroon five under the leadership ofCaptain Hoffman will play againstDr. Cook's fast Minnesota team. Thisstate of affairs was brought about byPurdue's victory over the GophersTuesday night at Lafayette, when thepresent ��:1rlers in the race were tak­en into camp 'by a score of 17-15.llinnesota had a lead of three pointsat the end of the first half, but wasunable to stand the pace in the sec­ond period.Gophers at Evanston Tonight.Minnesota goes to Evanston for..- - "the" gallfe-wmr·NorthwesteTJ1 tonight.This will undoubtedly result in vic­tory for the visitors, as the Purplehas not won a single game this sea­son. The Gophers then rest over inthe city tomorrow and will be in goodshape for the final contest againstthe Varsity Saturday.The Varsity went through a fastpractice against the Freshmen lastnight and 'showed the best form ofthe season. Every man is on edgefor the battle and realizes that thisfinal game of the year is going to bethe most important that a Varsityteam has ever played at home. Clark,Sauer and Kelly have been practicingwell at forward and will all be pre­pared for the Gophers, Edwards andHubble have been doing good workat center, and both may b� relied up­on to hold their own against Walker.Captain Hoffman, Page, Boyle, Ful­kerson and Hubble have all been put­ting up a good game in the defensiveline., Extra seats witI be installed onBartlett floor Saturday, morning.Seats will be on sale at. the ticketwindow in Bartlett today, , The Uni­versity ·band witt be out. for the gameand will play during the intermission.No Series with Columbia.It is not probable that there wilt beany series between the east and thewest this year, as Columbia. the east­ern champions, have already disband-,cd their team. There are two inter­collegiate leagues in the east. and itis possible that the winner of Satur­day's game may get a chance at thefirst team in the other division.The Freshmen journey out toEvanston tonight for their first gamewith the Xorthwestern Freshmen.The result is doubtful, as it is prob­able that the Chicago yearlings willnot present as strong a lineup as intheir game at It!inois. Saturday nightXorthwestern ,,·itt play Ia returnmatch with the Freshmen in the cur­tain-raiser 'to the Varsity contest.II .�! ,. IL..-...:From these figures it is seen that 7()per cent of the students live within10 to 12 minutes' walk of Cobb halt,and 89 per cent live south of Twelfthstreet and nortth of One Hundredthstreet.It is probable that there are a fewerrors in the method adopted. Stu­dents who frequently give fraternityhouse addresses may be living athome in other parts of the city. Onehundred students whose registrationhad not been completed when thebook was issued were not included inthis estimate. These figures are sig­nificant in that they dispel the illusionso long held to the effect that most ofthe students live at some distancefrom the campus.LIBRARIAN LEGLERTO TELL LIBRARY'SSOCIAL SERVICECity Librarian Henry E.

While thefirst prize winner can hardly beclaimed as a Chicago student, it mustbe acknowledged that Chicago in flu- .ence has probably played no smallpart in encouraging her efforts.Miss Downing is quoted as sayingthat, "My devil's food cake is .quitecelebrated,· and the boys are crazyover my fruitcakes and fudge;" so theUniversity can well claim that eitherby classical education or by mascu­line appreciation it has some smallshare in the two recently conferredhonors.Fussers DiIlCUSS Sabject.Upon being asked what he thoughtabout the· question of Universitygirls turning their thoughts to thegriddle and the chafing-dish, "Shorty'"Young confessed, "There is nothing Ienjoy more than to spend an eveningmaking candy in somebody's kitchen,and I only regret that so few Univer­sity girls emphasize that side of theentertainment."

Case. ofMoore, Case. Lyman & Hubbard. gen­eral insurance agents. The addressfollowed a banquet in the private din­ing room of the Commons. which wasthe last banquet of the Commercialclub for the winter quarter.Speaking of the history of -the in­surance business �Ir. Case said: "Ex­cavations of the ruins of Babylon andNinevah have brought to light claytablets covered with inscriptions clear­ly showing that 2,500 years ago therewas a system of compensation for lossfroiD fire, existing in Assyria and oth­er parts of the east."Although early Europe saw someforms of insurance, the great Londonfire in 1666 marks the most importantdate of fire insurance, and crystalizedthe idea into shape as a system:'The speaker spoke of the awful firewaste in this country. "The annualfire waste amounts to $225,000,000, or$2.51 per capita in the United States.In the six large cities of Europe theaverage loss is 53 cents per capita."Reduction of Waste."How can this waste be reduced?First, by improvement in construc­tion; second, dissemination of knowl­edge regarding more non-inflammablematerials; third. enactment and en­forcement of strict 'building codes;fourth, improved water supply; fifth,more thorough investigation of firesand severer punishment for arson."That the state should not take tooimportant a part in the rates andmanagement of insurance was theopinion of Mr. Case. He said: "Asthe restraining influence of investedcapital would be absent it is probablethat the expense of conducting thebusiness, . if carried on by the state,would be larp."ply increased. In myopinion insurance by the state wouldbe carried on in an arbitrary, expen­sive, inelastic way-unsatisfactory andburdensome to the public."This. encouragement was held outto the college man: "Companies areunsuccessful and retire from business,'but to a young man without capitalthe insurance business is an attractivefield and the possibilities for advance­ment are only limited by his own ca­pacity. The right sort of a man canfind plenty to stir his feelings andarouse his ambitions. He will inevit­ably be rewarded. by power and honorand profit."
