Morse Student Loans Without Security

In one of it's first actions dur
ing the current session, the Nor
wegian Parliament unanimously
approved a is million kroner in
crease in the capital funds of the
State Bank for Loans to Students
Established in 1947, this insti-
tuition extends long-term, low-in-
terest loans to students at uni
versities, colleges, technical insti-
tutes and schools of higher learn
ing throughout Norway. Loans
may also be granted to youths
studying abroad
Student loans are given without
security and bear no interest dur
ing the study period They are
repayable after graduation at 2.75
per cent interest a year. The pc
riod of repayment may extend as
long as Is years after the COM
pletion of studies.
Designed to help students solve
their economic problems during
their studies, the bank has proved
success in the four years of
its existence. In the fiscal year
195O-51, loans were extended to
SO per cent of the total 10000
students attending institutions
within the scope of the loan bank
In the 12-month period, student
loans totaled million kronner,
compared with 3.3 million in the
first year of operations. AS of
June 80, 1851, the bank had lent
a total of 23.6 million kroner since
it was established in 1947. Loans
in 195O-51 averaged 1,785 kronner
per borrower.
In determining the size of the
student loans the State bank con-
siders s,ich factors as local living
costs, available family support.
cost of required study books, and
economic conditions. Priority is
given to youths who are willing
and able to accept part-time work
while studying so that their debt
upon graduation may be held at
a minimum.
One of the major tasks today
is to provide low-cost, wholesome
meals for the students. Hence,
"Studentsamskipnaden" operates
large number of restaurants,
cafeterias and lunchrooms. Equal
ly important is the provision of
reasonable and adequate housing.
In Oslo, the local organization
owns dormitories at Blindern and
Sogn, and operates about 10 rent
ed student homes with total &C.
commodations for $50 youths.
Because of the high cost of study
books, the organization maintains
its own rotaprint shop which turns
out scientific works and theses at
a fraction of the normal price.
Autographed lectures. based on
stenographic reports, are available
at low cost.

So. Conference
Leaders Are
MadeIneligible
By ROBERT MOORE

RICHMOND, Va. Rj-The South
ern Conference finds itself max
ing football history this season
before a single game has been
played.
For two of its members - Mary
land and Clemson - are expected
to have teams which will rank
among the best in the nation. Yet,
neither can win the conference
championship.
Both Maryland and Clemson are
on the conference blacklist. They
placed there for playing in New
Years Day bowl games and were
given one-year football suspen-
SiOnS.
Virginia, another top-flight area
outfit, can't win, either, for the
Cavaliers aren't conference men,
berS.
Maryland has its eyes set on
becoming the nations No. team.
And the Terps have every reason
to believe that's where they'll wind
up.
They thrashed Tennessee, last
years tOp-ranked team, in the
Sugar Bowl Jan. 1. And Coach Jim
Tatum fatty admits the Terps will
have their greatest running attack
in Maryland history and a defen-
Sive unit which will compare favor
ably to the 1851 defense which
limited its foes to an average of
75.5 yards per game.
Tatum has Jack Scarbath, a
great quarterback, around to direct
backs in Chester Hanulak, Ralph
FELTON,, Ronnie Waller, Frey Lay
man, Joe Horning, Dick Nolan, Ed

Leading the Maryland line is

along with Scarbath is being

Clemson has a terrific triple

Major League
Hurlers Grippe
About PelOtas
BY Ed coRRIGAN
(For Gayle Talbotl

NEW YORK R,-It seems like
only yesterday that the major
league pitchers were shedding CO.
pious tears and pointing an accus-
ing finger at the manufacturers of
the balls they tossed at the hitterS.
Much too lively, they cried.
Someone has been tampering with
the content. They limited darkly
that there very probably might
have been a conspiracy to take the
game away from the pitchers.
So loud was the cry, in fact,
that the manufacturers were
forced to deny all. Same ball,
same content, they maintained.
Now all is silence and look at
the records will explain why. The
other day we glanced at the lead
ing batterS in the majors: Would
you believe that the National
League pennant winner may not
have a 300 hitter when the final
returns are in?
In fact, the last three in the top
10 in the National League were
were hitting under 300. Jackie
Robinson was the top Brooklyn
operative with a 1903 mark and
Whitley Lockman was banging
away at .3O1 for the New York
Giants.
The American League wasn't
much better. 1t, too, had the last
three in the top 10 under 300. Gene
Woodling of the New York Yankees
and Dale Mitchell of the Cleveland
Indians both were well up but
where were the others? Only Mic
key Mantle was managing to stay
above 300.
We don't want to be one to paint
a gloomy picture, but we would
like to urge Stan Musial to start
seeking with more vigor or he's
going to have the lowest average
of a National League batting king
since 1919.
The last time we looked his
mark showed 1886 and barring a
slump of catastrophe proportions,
he should win the championship in
a breeze for the third straight year.
But in 81 he had a 1855 and in so
a .346. His other three champion
ships were even more impressive.
In 1943it was 1857, in 1916 it was
1865 and in 1913 it was a mighty
1916.
In 1919 Ed RouSh of Cincinnati
won with a .321. This, of course,
was an Outgrowth of World War
when baseball was trying to stay
on its feet. Nothing even approach
ing was posted until the next
war.
In 1912, Ernie lombard won it
with $3.50.
In the American League, Ferris
Fain, who is trying for his second
straight, isn't much better off. He
won with a .344 last year and cur
rently is lowering around the $3.50
mark.
