Poor student co-operation in
contributing to the All University
Fund drive has made it necessary
for the drive to be extended for
another week, as only $1,416 has
been collected during the original
time limit, according to Jan Engle,
director.
Having failed to reach the
$3,000 goal, the university must
continue the drive until that goal
is reached. Miss Engle stated. The
time limit for the drive will be
set as Oct. 13.
The National War Fund drive
ends Oct. 10, and donations from
students cannot be counted in the
total given to the Lincoln War
Fund campaign unless the univer
sity goal is reached before Oct. 10.
Booths in the Union lobby and

otherwise.

meeting of the upperclass YW

had been increased by a proper
vote of the legislature over the
chief executives original budget
recommendation.
While crowding these varied
activities into his career, Dean
Foster's first interest was always
the students in his classes, stu
dents who later became outstand
ing leaders in politics, education
and the law in Nebraska and in
many other sections of the nation.
Dean Foster says he never re
garded his teaching job done
"when the boys graduated, and
conducted a voluminous corre
spondence with many graduates
of the college advising, aiding
and counseling them.
Spirited Lectures.
Many of his former students
recall the spirited lectures Dean
Foster was accustomed to con
ducting. Frequently he would
leave the lecture platform and
walk down the aisles personally
addressing questions to students,
and on other occasions empty his
pockets of pencils, wallet, envel
opes and similar personal posses
sions, thrusting them at . awe
struck students to illustrate a
point in the law of possession.
His former students also recall
with amusement Dean Foster's
passion for illustrating his lec
tures. One instance was a picture
on the lecture hall wall showing
a' series of gravestones bearing

Powerful
Pile Up
If football games ended after two quarters, Nebraska
could boast of a fine stand against the powerful Minnesota
Gophers, but unfortunately, the final 30 minutes saw Bernie
Bierman's men pile up a 40 point margin to swamp the
Huskers 61 to 7.
Nebraska's only hope was the passing of Mack Robin
son, and Mack did right well, pitching a touchdown toss to
big Don Sailors for Nebraska's only tally, but passing alone
does not offset an effective running attack.

Dean Hooper
Predicts Need
For Dentists
Dean Bert L. Hooper of the
university college of dentistry an
nounced today that he predicts a
serious shortage of dentists for at
least another decade.
Enrollment in dental colleges
has declined during the past three
years, and Dean Hooper sees no
hope of increase until more young
men have a chance to complete
their pre-dental training.
Relieve Shortage.
Dentists released from the
armed forces will relieve the
shortage somewhat, bat in many
cases these men will be replacing
retiring dentists who kept up their
practice during the war emer
gency, said Mr. Hooper.
The dean hopes that many re
turning veterans will consider a
dental career. "The field is wide
open now. Age is no longer a
factor in the profession because it
will be easy to establish a prac
tice after graduation from a good
dental college," he said.

clad Minnesotans ran rough shod
through "Potsy" Clark's lads the
second half to score at will. No
combination of linemen could
stem the advance of Kulbitski,
Mealey, Lutz, Lundquist and Wil
liams. During the opening period, the
Huskers held the Gophers to one
touchdown, a cutback from the
8-yard line by Mealey. Previous
ly a Minnesota thrust had been
repulsed when Vic Kulbitski was
injured on the Husker 30-yard
line and left the game. Mealey
took over and made good as the
clock showed five and a half min
utes left in the quarter. Quarter
back Kispeit made good on the
conversion.
Soon after the second quarter
got under way, Mealey scored
again from the 9 and converted
to send the Gophers on their way.
Twenty-five thousand Ne
braska fans got their only chance
to cheer when Robinson com
pleted a series of passes after
center Dick Short took a poor
Minnesota kickoff on the Ne

toss to Bob Korte who made a
fine catch as he fell. Three com

completed to Sailors, who stood
