Inter-Allied War Debts Yes, Its Carnival Time When I Was Seventeen
Considerable attention has been attracted to the University of Miami in its program of special winter studies. With the change from the semester system to the term plan, effected thi3 year, the university has been enabled to present a specialized curriculum that has been an aid to the cultural growth of the Miami area. The Winter Institute of Literature was brought to a successful end, last week, and the announcement has been made that it will be presented again next winter. This week the law school began a special course in insurance law that is drawing outside attention. Frank G. Turner, one of the outstanding authorities on insurance law, who is conducting the course, has written the presidents of over one hundred large insurance firms telling them about this work of the university law school. They have all been unanimous in their praise of this noteworthy project. Few law schools are keeping pace with the jurisprudence of insurance.

The Zeta Phi sorority will give their carnival next Saturday night, and if there isn’t one swell time had by *11 it will be because the pink elephants would not behave or the Zebra lost his stripes.

Final arrangements for Miami’s wrestling meet with the University of Florida, scheduled for Friday,
March 10th in the downtown Bis-cayne Arena, Biscayne Boulevard and Eighth street, have been completed. This meet, which promises to be the outstanding athletic event of the season, is sponsored by the University Alumni Association and various other university organizations and civic clubs of Coral Gables and Miami.
According to Evan Lindstrom, coach of the Florida team, this year’s gator squad is undoubtedly the best turned out by the state institution in the history of the | school. Bill Terrill ,Si Osgood and ; Bill Aikins, veterans from last year’s squad are anxious to come to Miami and show the fans down here that their 16-14 victory over the Hurricanes last year was no upset. Competition in each weight-I division has been very keen this year and Lindstrom will have a wealth of material from which to ¡pick his starting lineup.	-------
