School Loan Funds Assist Poor Student Nation’s Universities Aid Needy as Their Cash Supply Becomes Low Small Loss Shows Youths Who Borrow Are Honest Student loans in 282 colleges ami universities of the United States now total approximately $4,0(10,000 loaned to students according to a bulletin received hero by 11 u g li Biggs, assistant to Bar I M. Pallett, clean of men. In addition to this sum which is ad ministered by in stitutions, there are private educa tional funds that Hugh Biggs lo;m many thous ands of dollars, tlm bulletin pointed out. “Higher education is no excep tion to what appears to be the ‘in stallment age,’” the bulletin says. “It is an investment which yields a high rate of interest with the passing years.” Same as Oregon Loans Loans are made along the same lines as at the University of Ore gon, where a fund of approximately ,+.'10,000 is maintained for this pur pose. Students may borrow in amounts up to $100 or $150, and repayment usually begins at a stat ed period after graduation. Inter est. at the rate of six percent is ''charged at the university, although in some institutions this is as high as eight per cent, the bulletin show ed. Very little loss is sustained in making these loans. Many Benefactors Donate Largo loan funds established by organizations in the United States include that of the‘American Bank ers’ association, $500,000; Knights Templar Educational Foundation, $1,560,000; Curtis college loan fund, $250,000; F. J. Barrett Foundation of Detroit, $100,000, and the Harmon Foundation of New York, $150,000. American Association of University Women, Daughters of the American Devolution, International Student Committee of Y. W. O. A., and var ious local organizations are listed as having established loan funds. “The American people are every where realizing that- education is one of the most productive invest ments that can be made, and arc becoming more and more liberal with funds for such projects. Loan funds are particularly appealing, since they are a direct aid to the students who most need this assistance,” said Mr. Biggs in commenting on the bulle tin. Oregonians (Continued from l’ayc One) are appointed from the members of the state council. The ten ministries of the national government are grouped under the executive yuan, and consists of the ministries of the interior, foreign affairs, war, fi nance, agriculture and mining, in dustry, commerce and labor, educa tion, communications and public health. The executive yuan corresponds to a cabinet and its chairman to the premier of China. The judicial yuan, the supreme court of the land, is headed by Dr. Wang Chung-hui, a representative of the nation at The Hague and recognized as an able man in this field. The legisla tive yuan is in reality the substitute for the parliament of occidental na tions and is composed of from -111 lu 99 members. This body passes laws, which must be approved by the state council and finally the execu tive rum mil tee. Parallels Civil Service Another interesting department is' the examination yuan, which corre sponds to the IT. S. civil service. This yuan examines all applicants for government positions and ad ministers tests lu determine their qualifications. The new government is confront ed with a great many problems, both domestic and international, points eat Dr. Hall. The Chinese desire at the earliest possible moment to abolish extra-territoriality and for eign concessions, and they wish to effect a new tariff treaty as soon as possible. They have tax prob lems, farm relief, and in all these they are handicapped bv lack of transportation and communication facilities in-the interior. “The present form of government may be altered or changed complete ly, but it does stand for progress,” it is said by Hr. Hall. “The Chinese have been a ioug time in arriving at this stage of cooperation and of course will have to do a great deal of experimenting before they find just what they want and need. It is the duty of this nation and others to offer them aid and cooperation in every way so that they may at tain national prosperity as souu as possible. ” DUCK SOUP# AND THEN THERE’S THE I “MAJOR” SONG THEY USED TO SING: “IT MAJOR HAPPY WHEN YOU MADE ME CRY.” Just lately the Betas have dis covered that the railroad track is an ideal place to take their dates.

The “pooch,” a friendly little beast, became attached to one of the students on the street a few days ago and was easily coaxed to Sigma hall where he immediately j made friends with everybody and | “wagged” himself into a permanent j home. A special house meeting was called in order that the dog could be for mally adopted and given a fitting name. In fact the meeting went so far as to create a new office known as the "Custodian of the Pooch.” The member holding this office must see to it that his charge is well fed and receives the proper at tention due to a canine of noble lineage. After a heated discussion the title of “pooch” was changed to “Fritz.” Almost any morning Fritz may be found running about the neighbor hood chasing stray cats or content edly chewing someone’s morning paper. At times he has even been found in class with one of his many masters, no doubt striving for a higher education. If you should chance to see a dog I with all its features hidden under a coat of black, curly hair with only a homely face and a pair of mis chievous eyes peeking out at you; and if you think that it is the home liest dog you have ever seen; then it’s Fritz! With the care ami pampering Fritz receives in his new home if is doubtful whether the boys could get riil of him if they so desired. However, the Sigma men say that they could not be better pleased if they had a pedigreed police dog. They insist that in spite of the fact that Fritz is as homely as any dog could possibly be and is absolutely worthless, he is the best dog on the campus and challenge anyone to find a better one. Frosh Casaba Players Having Strenuous Week Basketeers Divided Into Two Practice Groups; Team Play Starts Soon 'l’hc freshman basketball squad is going through a period of hard drill this week, and the players will then take a vacation until the be ginning of the winter term. Earl ‘‘Spike” Leslie, frosh mentor, divided the players into two groups Monday. Half of them met at IL.'iO o’clock and the other half came on the floor an hour later. This change was made since the ability of the men is unknown and it is necessary that the coaching staff get a line on all of the men before practice is closed for the holidays. Because of the size of the squad, there are over 50 men out each night, this would be impossible unless a divi sion were made, “Spike” is drilling his men in fundamentals only and team play will not start until next term. No first squad will be picked until then. Even when it is picked the second stringers will continue prac tice and receive coaching through out the remainder of the season.
