Circulation Manager PRELIMINARIES TODAY The preliminaries for the Missouri Valley track meet will be held today. 264 athletes are representing the valley schools in the annual track classic. Ticket sales have been good and Nebraskans are showing their inter est in the track team, and are doing everything possible to' make this meet a success.

Our athletes have had a great season thus far, and they are going to put forth every effort to make Nebraska the fourth consecutive winner of the Val ley title. No student should miss this meet. The best talent in the west will be assembled and records will probably tumble in some events. Plan to attend the meet. Awgwan.

THE TASSELS A new organization has appeared on the campus an organization brought into being by the feeling that there has been a lack of organiza tion and cooperation among the co eds of the university. The Tassels are here to further the ideals and principles of Nebraska in every way, to assist at athletic events, to co operate with all other organizations in putting across anything the school attempts. The Tassels hope through working unselfishly for the school, through trying in every way to create closer friendship between university woin en, and through bringing into exis tence a closer feeling of copoera tion between the men and the wom en of the school to raise and uphold Nebraska's standards. Progress in a co-educational school is either retarded or advanced by the feeling existing between the women and the men. If they cannot work together harmoniously the advance ment of the school is greatly de ferred.' Tassel intends to work to ward the end of closer fellowship and harmony. Ttaken all in all the main purpose of Tassel is to back the Scarlet and Cream everywhere, in everything. M. L. Lutherans. The Lutheran Bible League will hold a social meeting at the Parish hall of Trinity church at 13th and H Friday evening at 8:30. Palladian.

INTER-COLLEGE SPIRIT Well, the laws are not such a bad crowd after all. Every once in while, just when you are hanging on to a "last shred" of faith, along comes something that makes you feel maybe there's some chance- for league of nations or a world court or something of the sort. Now, it's like this: You see, last week was en gineer's week when the students of the engineering college and a few of the old grads, too, got to feeling like the world was theirs and all that sort of thing. They pretty near proved it, too, the way they 'appro priated the entrance to the campus and built a fine tig aTch over the walk. Now, here is the mean part of this story: Along comes some one . he can't be found now and of all the invitations to a war writes on that fine arch, both sides, these tan talizing words. "La '24." But that wasn't an act for which the law col lege would accept the responsibility Not for a moment. The very next morning all classes of the law col lege held meetings and adopted res-' olutions protesting and condemning the act as one of Individual vandal Ism with n public apology to the en gineers. The engineers responded in spirit and now it seems that that eling of good fellowship and a- ndly rivalry between the two col leges has been established more sol idly than ever before. University Journal. the Big Sister Initiation. The Big Sister board will hold a second initiation for next year, at Ellen Smith hall. Monday, from 5 to o'clock.

REGISTRATION LIMIT IS SATURDAY NOON (Contiued From Page 1) The purpose of spring registra tion, says Dean Engberg, is not only to give the students a chance to get their registration out of the way, but it also' -gives the administration offices a chance to get organized and to get everything in shape be fore the opening of school in the fall. The assignment committee can do its work better. In the latter part of August the bursar will notify the students as to the amount of their fees, which should be paid by check, not later than September 8. A three dollar fee for late payment will be charged the students after this date. If the student does Ti,ot attend school next semester, he has lost nothing by his learly Registration, and if he should decide that he will not attend after paying his ifees, the entire amount will be refunded to him upon application to the bursar.
