PROFESSOR CHRISTOPHER HOLLIS Traces loar history. the Press fosters a spirit of national­ ism by leading people to believe that their country is a victim of conspir­ acy of other nations. The two major problems in Europe now, he said, are Italy and Germany. Mr. Hollis said: "Italy's war with Abyssinia is no recent development, but goes back to the Versailles ti-eaty and to the World War. It was dis­ tinctly promised Italy by the Allies as a compensation for entering the war that certain territorial allotments needed by Italy as an outlet for her crowded population would be as­ signed to her directly after the war was won. Unfortunately, in 1918 Italy," when the war was won, was on the verge of national anarchy and communism. "No breach of agreements can be charged against England and France for their decision under these condi­ tions that more territory for Italy, when she could not govern what she already had would be against the in­ terests of Italy, herself. The allot­ ments were not made." Mr. Hollis declared that the main purpose of the Fascist regime since then has been to recover the respect of Europe in this war with Ethiopia and not to derive any concessions from the country.

Moir continued to display an amazing acurate eye for the basket by garnering twenty-one points in a little over twenty minutes of play.

St. Joseph too could not cope with the more experienced passers, the better conditioned squad, and the all around general ability of the Notre Dame players.

The most glaring weakness was the inability to sink foul shots, Moir excelling in this de­ partment.
