DENTISTRY COLLEGE
Committee of Five to Present
Statement to Coming
Legislature.
A resolution charging that the
college of dentistry has ceased to
be a tax supported institution was
adopted Tuesday night by dentists
from various parts of the state,
who met at the Lincoln hotel. A
committee of five was appointed
to place the resolution before the
coming state legislature.
The resolution states that when
Vie rniiece of dentistrv was taken
over by the university in 1918, it
was with the understanding that it
would be supported by taxes the
same as any of the other colleges.
It is alleged that, to the contrary,
this has not been done, and large
fees have been charged the clinical
patients to make up for it. It goes
on to assert that poor patients
have not been able to afford to at
tend the clinic and that "some
abuses of privilege" have resulted.
A committee was appointed by
the Lincoln District Dental society
to investigate the charges of
abuse, which It sustained. The
chancellor, it is stated, admitted
the abuses but claimed that licy
bad been discontinued.
In conclusion, the resolution asks
an appropriation of about $80,000
for the college of dentistry for the
next two years, should the fees be
discontinued at the dental clinic.
The committed which will pre
sent the resolution is composed of:
Dr. L. P. Ronne. Lincoln District
Dental society, chairman: Dr. G.
M. Byrne, Nebraska State Den
tal society: Dr. H. A. Shannon,
committee of investigation: Dr. M.

Before Game.
Nebraska's newest five-cyl-iiulered.
hiirh-snecd basketball
machine, boasting some old.
smoothly running parts ana
some less seasoned, needing a
little oil here and there, but all
fitted together into one composite
unit of precision, and designed and
perfected by Harold W. Browne,
makes its Lincoln premiere on the
coliseum court tonight. Iowa uni
versity is the invading guest to
be entertained by the Huskers.
The odds, according to the old
dope sheet, say Iowa. And that
opinion is held by the majority
who are interested, excluding, of
course, tne lmmeaiate participants.
But with a veteran group back,
lots of replacements, and the eye
of the sporting circles picking
them in Big Ten competition, the
Hawkeyes are considered top to
night. Other teams from the land
where the tall corn grows have in
vaded Lincoln with similar anni
hilation designs on a Scarlet ath
letic squad, mostly ioomau, aim
have gone sorrowfully back to
Iowa City with tales of a Husker's

Iowa tonight would be the perfect
thing as lar as tne Balancing i
precedent is concerned. For three
years now, the Husker grid team
has emerged victorious by a one
point margin, and by the laws of
chance and of fair play it's now
the Hawks right to play turn,

But Nebraska isn't giving up so
easily, not without first saying
something about the score, but the
commentators are afraid that Ne
braska won't be able to hold Iowa
to that one point margin. In
other words, they think that Iowa
is several points better than Ne
braska and perhaps more than
that. An Iowa victory over North
