that every guest will have a 'good
time.
The spring mixer is probably the
last all-University party of the year.
The all-University paMy committee
gave its last entertainment before
the Easter holidays. It has been
said that a Nebraska student who has
failed to attend a mixer during the
year has missed an experience which
rightfully belongs in a year of Uni
versity life.
The Omaha Club, w hich is in charge
of the mixer, is an active organiza
tion on the campus. Its purpose is to
foster friendship among students
from Omaha, and aid new ones en
tering the University. The monthly
dinners held by the club are attended
by about sixty students. The or
ganization is backed by Omaha busi
ness men.

( University Publicity Office).
Forty-four University of Nebraska
students are meeting part of the cost
of their education by loans that total
$7,700 granted from the funds held
in trust by the University. Fifteen of
these loans were granted this year.
According to L. B. Gunderson, Uni

dents have been loaned money from
these funds in the past ten years.
The funds entrusted to the Univer
sity by philanthropic persons or or
ganizations are divided in two classes
according to whom the money can be
loaned that is, loans to special groups
of students and loans open to all.
Freshmen are not eligible to loans
from any fund, and seniors are given
preference. No person can borrow
more than $100 a semester and this
is paid to them at the rate of $25
a month. The person signs a prom
issory note that is endorsed by two
property-owners satisfactory to the
University officials in charge of the
fund3.
Each loan la payable not later than
two years after the student has been
graduated or has left college. Every
loan but one which will eventually
be collected has been paid when due,

This is under a guardian, J. A.
Changstrom of the Omaha National
bank. Thi3 money is loaned to stu
dents in the College of Agriculture,
and it is reported that seventy-five
students of that college have been
loaned sums from that fund since it
was started. Every loan has been
repaid. Loans from this fund are
secured through officials of the col
lege. The students in the College of
Medicine at Omaha have the use of
the Conklin Loan fund. Mr. Gunder
son says that there is need for a
Tund for the College of Dentistry stu
dents who must make large expendi
tures for laboratory equipment. Pres
ent funds and rules do not accom
modate these students.
The available funds do not even
begin to take care of the large num
ber of applications. . All the funds
will grow in time. But University of
ficials agree that student loan funds
divided according to colleges should
be established as soon as. possible.

The Nebraska track team meets
the University of California cinder
path artists, 1922 inter-collegiate
champions of America, in a -dual meet
Saturday as the feature event of the
University Day Athletic program at
Berkeley. Both terns re in excellent
shape for the meet, and will go
through a light workout today, in
preparation for the big contest to
morrow. The California ns are con
fident of winning the meet with the
Iluskevs by a comfortable margin.
In doping out a track moot, one
man's guess is as good ns ar.ohor's
and so the chart shown above may
be judged accordingly.
elusions shown there represent a
careful study of (ho performances of
the two teams, both last year and
this, and give a fair estimate of the
strength of the two aggregations. The
fact that the Bears have limited their
team to twenty men in order to be
on equal footing with the Iluskers
was considered in making this chart,
and may account for the strength of
the Huskers in several events.
In the century dash Noble and
Lloyd of the Huskers are expected
to have little difficulty in winning
first and second places, in view of
their faty ten-second performances
in the New Mexico meet. Shopard or
Farnsworth of California are con
ceded third place. The 220-yard dash
should also be won by the fast pair
of Husker sprinters, who tied the
world's record in the fifty-yard dash
at the Valley indoor meet.
Aeain in the quarter-mile dash,
Nebraska should make a strong show
ing. Trexler of the Cornhuskefrs
won the 440 in 52 seconds against a
slow field at New Mexico, and should
run the quarter faster than his New
Mexico mark. The Bears, on the
other hand, are relatively weak in
e 440, for they failed to place in
ie Southern California meet, when
Martz of the, Trojans won in 51 2-5
seconds. In the quarter, therefore,
the Huskers are given first place,
with a probability of the other
Husker quarter-niiler taking second
or third.
Gardner and Coats, Husker half
milers who both ran the 8S0 under
two minutes last year, are considered
as winners of first and second places
in the half, respectively, with Bau
man, Bear 'half-miler, taking third.
Captain Allen of the Huskers, Mis-
souri Valley champion miler, Is
doped to win the mile, with the Bruin
runners taking second and third
places. Ted Slemmons of the Husk
ers is given lirst place in the two
mile, with Cohen, another fast
Husker, taking third place.
The fast California hurdlers are ex
pected to take first in the hifcS
hurdles and first and third in the
low hurdles, with the Huskers scor
ing second and third in the highs
and second in te lows. The Husker
relay team should run around 3:25 in
the mile relay, which would give the
Scarlet and Cream team a safe mar
gin in this event, as the Trojans de
feated the Bears in the relay by fin
ishing in 3:28.
.The Bears will score high in all
