STATE TO GET $4,000 FOR
RENO RACING MEET

As its interest in the Reno races.
the road fund of the state of Nevada
will be enriched by about 10000 This
is the way it is figured out to date,
though the amount may be lessehed or
invreased, according to the play the
ponies received the last few days of
the season. Under the state law the
racing association receives per cent
of the money that passes through the
pool boxes, and of this the state re-
ceives one-siXth. Figuring on this
basis the racing association realized
in all something like 100000 indica-
ting that approximately $750,001 has
been bet on the races. Whether that
vast sum is local money or whether
most of it was grounght into the state
by people who attended the races is 4
question that is now disturbing the
Reno mind and its solution may have
to do i'm determining whether there
shall be another racing meeting.

UNIVERSITY
OPENS AUG. 80.

When the University of Nevada
opens on August 80 the Indications
ire that it will begin its most pros
ptr1us year. Applications for ad-
mission have been received uniYer-
sally from the high schools of the
stare, and where last year there were
two freshmen from a community, this
year there have beer applications
from twelve, and in many cases the
cr.ire graduating classes from the
iccal high schools are entering the
University this fall.
The best place to educate the .ohng
mea and women of state is In tae
university of the state. Ali tie more
progressive states are finding this o,t
ard the tendency of the universities
is TO shape their courses so as to re-
spond to the particular educational
needs of their people in the highest
possible degree.
This is essentially true in Nevada
where our conditions are so differ
ent from what they are in all other
states. The graduates of other uni-
Versities, coming to Nevada, Ind
themselves in manw respects far less
fitted to cope with the professional.
industrial and economic demands here
than our own University graduates.
On the other hand, the University
of Nevada is supplementing that por-
tion or feature of its training which
relates to Nevada alone with as broad
and solid an education along general
or universal lines as any of the larger
universities are able to give.
The university of Nevada opens oil
August 30th, and every young man
young woman in Nevada seeking an
education, who can find the oppor-
tunlty to pursue a course there
should do so.
