Lohr, Their Center, Makes IS Bias

Powerless.

Playing a brand of basketball that
completely bewildered the Rock Is
land high school five who were some
what handicapped by the absence of
Arno Tremann from the lineup, the
fast Muscatine high quintet decis-
lively won over the locals at the high
school last evening by the over
itors gave one of the prettiest exhi-t
billions of excellent basket shooting
and fast team work that has ever
been seen on the school floor and 1t
is no disgrace to the Islanders to lose
to such an aggregation.
LoHR A WONDER.
Though every member of the Mus
catine FIVE is star player. Lohr, the
tall center, outshone the rest of his
teammates. He shot 16 field bas-
kets and played an usually clean
game. The visitors played signals
we'll and would generally get the ball
directly from the center. Due to
Tremann's absence Coach Corneal
was forced to put Earl Chalk in at
center.
LOCALS START WELL.
In the first half the islanders held
their opponents down to 3S points

(By Associated Press.l

| London, Dec. 30.-After two weeks of
sparring Turkey has finally shown her
hand in the peace conference by virtually
asking for mediation by the great pow
'ers.
Turkish delegates offered this prOpo-
sition today in a session which was the
most strained of any since the negotia-
tions began.
Rechad Pasha, the Turkish premier.
said he was able to state that his gov
Iernment held most of the questions
should be referred to the powers. except
the differences with Bulgaria, which was
a matter for settlement directly between
the two governments.
The allies demanded these proposals i'm
writing, but the Turks refused. The
conference adjourned until Wednesday.
when the allies declare they will bring
the situation to crisis by an ultima
tum.
They will waste no more time waiting
on telegraphic conferences between the
Turkish delegates and their government.
Turks believe mediation will be best
because the tendency of such an arrange
ment always is toward compromise,
and because it would save their govern
ment's prestige by making it appear that
she makes sacrifices only at the pressure
of all Europe instead of at the dictation
of the Balkan states.
The allies consider that mediation
would be a disadvantage to them Ser
via and Montenegro especially believe it
would be impossible to get an impartial
mediation with Austria participating.
They also fear Italian aspirations.
