Student Loans
Set New High
Registration Day
Figures Doubled
From Last Spring
The largest transaction in the
student loan fund’s history was
made during registration day
this term. Approximately 540
students were given loans to
raise the total figure to $16,
268.25. Since that date more loans
have been made.
Loan fund figures have been
steadily increasing each term.
Last term 427 notes were given
on registration day to make a
total of $13,066.80, and during the
two days of registration last fall
term $10,121.30 was loaned.
This term’s unprecedented loan
figure is almost twice as much
as the $8,511 loaned during
spring term last year.
The loan fund, which is aiding
a growing number of students,
was founded in 1901 through the
generosity of William M. Ladd of
Portland. Other early contribut
ors were A. S. Roberts of The
Dalles and the class of 1904.
In 1909 Senator R. A. Booth
of Eugene became interested and
through his efforts a number of
others made substantial dona
tions.
Emotion tests given men and
women students at Kent State
university reveal that men are
much more easily stirred by
swing music than coeds.

In cut flowers roses will always
lead. A “better times” bright red
rose advocates a cheerful week
end. Dutch iris in beautiful snades
of blue and deep orchid are rec

any flower at Easter whether a
lapel boutonniere for her suit or
a corsage of three orchids will
represent your thoughts,
it. —
Fifty Eavesdrop
On Hawaii Gabfest
Nearly fifty persons last night
took to the air via short wave
radio to talk to members of the
University of Oregon basketball
team, currently sunning them
selves on the beach at Honolulu,
T. H.
While Oregon students are
scurrying to classes today, mem
bers of the team are planning to
attend a hula show, they said.
All enthusiastically agreed that
they were having a “swell time,”
with University of Hawaii coeds
acting as a welcoming committee.
Friends and relatives of the
team clustered around three
transmitters in Eugene to ex
change pleasantries with the
boys. Owners of the Eugene sta
tions are Jim Fletcher (W7FHM),
Stanley Miller (W7ADA), and
Bill Riley (W7EXB).
The three stations remained in
contact for nearly two hours with
station K6SRZ in Honolulu. The
station is operated by R. W.
“Slim” Davis of the Signal Corps
detachment stationed at Fort
Shatter.

hard-boiled eggs, (it always rains
for Easter parties, so the egg
search has to be held inside)
makes for great worry on the
part of all the parents. There is

magnificent purple, which would

For Easter this
year, it’s a dress
and coat ensem
ble of a new mesh material in
black at Beards. The dress is
simply made and has as detail
trim a big puritan collar of
white pique and lace. The coat
is fitted and collarless so can be
worn with many other light out
fits for spring and summer.
Best of all is the absolutely dif
ferent material—do see it and
other popular styles in capes,
jackets and coats.
