2. I shall pay to the management the actual contract price for any entertainment when such entertainment has been provided as advertised.
3. In the event that any entertainment fails to be provided as ad vertused and no substitution is made, or if a substitution be made that is unsatisfactory to any holder of a course ticket, it shall be my duty upon the presentation of such ticket to refund to the owner of the same sum of thirty three and one-third cents.
4. The funds remaining in my hands after paying out a sum equal to the total amount of the actual contract prices for the six attractions, shall be kept as a reserve fund for a co-operative representative lecture association which shall be organized next year for the purpose of securing a series of high grade entertainments at actual cost. 1 shall also consider it my duty to see that all contracts are properly signed, that no complimentary tickets are issued, that the chart is opened at the time advertised and reserved to course ticket holders for the usual time, that there is no cutting of rates on tickets. Any violation of the agreement as implied in the above statement shall be made public immediately. OLIN TEMPLIN.

The fact that the Sigma Chi fraternity is to bandage up its old wounds and make its reappearance is just becoming generally known. It is rumored that several of the erstwhile "frat haters" are among the new men. How fickle we are!
Several of the boys in Topeka attending the tennis tournament heard that the University had adopted the crimson and came home wearing the supposed new color. It proved but a joke of one of the seniors to advertise their color. Are they so few as all that?
The recent decision of the supreme court, whereby the normal college is deprived of the immediate use of the appropriation for its support, also effects the University. The annual interest on our appropriation is not now available for use which causes a temporary loss of $9,000 dollars.

The Review management has asked several members to express their views in the next issue, on the subject of evolution. No doubt the sale of the November Review will be unprecedented.

We are pleased to deny the statement which appeared last week in these columns to the effect that Prof. James H. Canfield had joined the people's party. The professor has authorized the denial, saying there was not the least foundation for the report.
The discussion as to, whether the University should adopt some other colors is waxing warm. We most earnestly hope that some action will be taken in this matter, as with our present colors it is almost impossible to select desirable base ball' or fort ball suits. Why not adopt crimson, the same as Harvard, or crimson and black? Talk this up boys, and let us act on it immediately.
Puof. Blake has completed the purchase of an incandescent electric light plant for the University. It is much larger than the one now in use in the city.
