LLoYD-GEoRGE. 52 ON SUNDAY. A LEADER
 IN WAR AS IN. PEACE

Not so very long ago the nobles and wealthy men. of England were calling down curses upon the head of the Rt Hon. David L1oyd-George, Chan ce11or of the Hxchequer. and all his pestiferous schemes for separating Peter from his cash in order to pro- vide for Paul. Strangely enough, war has brought comparative peace to Lloyd-George, for in the most crit icaz period of British history the peers as we'll as the people, the classes as well as the masses have been. brought to a realization that in the WeIshman England has great statesman, a man of boise and power, and one capable of bringing home to the millions who adore him the real meaning and issues of the conflict in which the country is now engaged
 David L1oyd-George was born in Manchester on Jan. IT, 1883, so he was hfty-two years old Sunday. Al though born beyond the borders of Wales, he is a Welshman through and through, his father, William George, having been a school teacher or Welsh yoeman stock, and his mother. Eliz- abeth Lloyd. the daughter of a Welsh Baptist minister. The future states man was reared in poverty and at
 sixteen was artic1ed to firm of SO licitors. From his admission to the
 bar he was always the champion or the masses, whose suffer1ngs ana pr4- vations he had shared.
 Fiery but persuasive oratory en- abled Lloyd George to get in close touch with the people whom he was anxious to serve, and. coupled with
 his natural ability, forced him to the front in the political arena For the moment he has dropped all his re form projects and has devoted his sole attention to the problems pre- bV 2,
 George V. Hobart, the author of

 was born at Cape Breton, Nova sco- tia, forty-eight years ago to-day. In
 his youth he studied telegraphy-s aE1d d was a cable. operator in sNewfound- 1 land for some time, After a brief ex- perience as an actor, he returned to i the key and operated newspaper wire In his moments of leisure 1 he began to write parodies, and this
 led to employment by New York pa l pers, for whom he wrote the sketches John Henry and .'Dinkelspiel, He
 then branched out into dramatic writ

Basketball Tied for Lead 9n2MMAA
BASKETBALL GOSSIP HEARD
 FROM HOLY NAME LEAGUE

Lannon of the .'Hearts'' ise reputed as being the best forward in the league. They can ell be good for wards if they ara left open. Give Billy all, due credit, however, he Is as good as the best one. Have you got me? The "Saints'' covered him to a nicety on Friday evening and the best he could do was to shoot one basket. Then again if a player is covered to perfection he is lucky if the fine point, Lannon, if given half a chance is the premier forward of the league.
 Christy of the sssaints'' has been a. little off color in the two games he ihas played so far But the fair sex need not worry, Bobby will loosen up after 8 few weeks practice, and then look for an upward climb on the part of the Saints
 E Referee Canning had hard time pleasing everybody on Friday night. The Hearts anad Saints battle was the toughest one of the evening and Charlie called 'em as he saw them
 much to the dissatisfaction of play
 CTS on both teams.
 After the close of the last game
 this evening the magnates win go 1n-
 to session. The purpose of the meet ling is to straighten out the schedule l and decide where and when the games will be played. According to the bylaws games shall be played ! on Monday nights in St. John's hall
 and on Friday. nights in St. Charles
 hall.
 1 St. Charles hall is a bone of con- tent1on among several players who
 boast of speed. They do not like ] to play there on account of the low ceiling and 8 pillar which is in the I center of the court. We will admit that 1t deprives them of rolling up 6 1 big score, but let me ask the fans l the following question: Which would you rather see a fast team
 running away with the game OF the
 slow but sure team holding their op- | ponents to a low score. and may l ner will be found in St. Johns hal I and the latter is always evident ir l St. Charles gym.

 tices and scehdules to the contrary
 notwithstanding are null and void.
 Certain elements are demanding that all contests be played on St John 8 court which is direct violation of the schedule and bylaws as adopted by the league magnates at a. meet ing held on Monday, Jan. 3, in St. Charles hall. This is by no means reflection upon the merits and truth of other sport writers who will do we'll hereafter to accept as offI- cia1 any news dispensed by the writ CT, who was officially appointed at a.
 recent meeting as the official news dispatcher of the league The games played on Friday night were scheduled in the columns of | The Farmer to be played in St.
 Charles hall as per schedule which
 was adopted at a meeting on Jan. 3rd. A certain magnate pulled the strings with great effectiveness and had the games transferreds to St John's hall. When the St. Charles boys heard of this action they refused to play the game but after a little influence had
 been brought to bear upon them they
 gave in to the wish of the majority.
 The Holy Name league is still in working order today, thanks to df- 1 pIomacy on the part of the Saints 7 Magnates and players in general will ] do well thereafter to abide by the
