Athletic Notes.
The Profs., the young ladies, the town-people, everybody, came out to the K. S. U. vs. Washburn game.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 6. 1 $ ^{7} $
Swope and Postlethwaite will row against Morris and Houk for the championship of the University.
F. H. Kellogg, Phi Delt short stop, is rapidly recovering from his injuries and will be able to play with the Phis in the next game.
The great game of the season will be that of the I. C.'s against the K. A.T.'s. It will be played by proxy and will no doubt be full of interest. Ladies will be charged admission, gentlemen free. For the past week the girls have been busy securing their players.
Three of University's dashing gallants took a ride on the Kaw river sail boat last week. That is they started to take a ride, but as it turned out, swimming and walking were the chief features of the day's sport. They dried their dripping clothes and came back to town carrying a bold front, but the reporter of the Tribune gave them away in a very sensational article.
To-morrow afternoon (Saturday) the Sigma Nus and Betas will play their game. These clubs have the same record, both having lost two games. The game will on this account be all the more stubbornly contested.
This afternoon the Phi Gams and Sigma Chis cross bats. The Sigs are in good trim and the Phi Gams somewhat weakened by recent losses. The game promises to be a close one.
Fraternity nines are many of them suffering losses. Allen, captain and first baseman for the Phi Psi will not be able to play any more this year. Miles and Delo, first base and left field for the Phi Gams have left school and joined surveying parties. Jep Davis, captain and catcher for the Phi Delts, will not be able to play in his regular position for several weeks. The boys propose to keep the league up just the same and play out the schedule as arranged.
K. S. U. VS. WASHBURN.
Last Saturday the long expected game was played. A large crowd was present, the grand stand being nearly full when the game began. Naturally the sympathy was with the home club, but the applause was not at all one-sided, good plays by Washburn were as heartily applauded as those of our club. About 3 o'clock the Washburn club arrived on the grounds, attired in their handsome new uniforms of blue and grey. The game began shortly after, with Washburn at the bat. In the first three innings the visitors did not make a tally, while our boys made two, this gave the friends of the
home club considerable confidence and seemed to promise a close game. But in the fourth the Washburns did better batting and the University club made errors all around, thus the Washburns were enabled to make eight runs. Our club made another and its last run in the fifth. After the fifth inning Jackson pitched for K. S. U. Captain Davis was struck by a foul tip and his right hand so badly hurt that he was obliged to put Campbell behind the bat and go into the field. The excellent battery work of the Washburn club was undoubtedly what won them the game. Brewster, their pitcher, struck out twelve batters. Our club on the whole did not play as well as usual. Barlow did good work on first. Deford played in his usual excellent way and undoubtedly was not surpassed by any player in either club. He assisted in several fine double plays and has the credit of making two of the University's three runs. Esterly did not do nearly as well as usual but distinguished himself by a fine running catch in the eighth inning. One of the prettiest plays of the game was the fly catch by Washburn's third baseman The umpire, furnished by Washburn understood his business and gave satisfaction to both sides. The following is the score:
Washburn.  Runs.  Lawrence.  Runs.
H. Tucker, f. 1... 0  Dedford, s. 2  Runs.

S. T. Gilmore—"Oh for a lodge in some vast wilderness."
The opinions of our base ballists on Saturday's game have been collected and are below printed for the Courier readers:
J. D. Davis—"What a pity it is that we can die but once to save our country."
A. G. Canfield—"They never fail who die in a good cause."
The benefit game yesterday between K. S. U. and Lawrence resulted in 12 to 11 in favor of the former.
Jenks—"T were better to have played and lost than never to have played at all."
Allen "The drying up a single tear has more of honest fame than shedding seas of gore."
Esterly "T'was ever thus from childhood's hour."
Barlow—"O what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive."
Hickey—"Farewell, a long farewell to all my greatness."
Deford "I shall fight it on this line if it takes all summer."
Prof. Marsh—"We've showed too much 'o writ Buregard calls abandon for all our Thermopolies hav' ben clean vicy versy."
Jackson—"There are more things in this world than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
Chancellor's Reception.
Last evening the Seniors in all the various departments, together with the faculty were entertained at the residence of Dr. Lippincott. Mrs Lippincott, assisted by MissJo Cook, of Kansas City, received the guests and made them welcome. The large house was tastefully decorated with flowers of various kinds and brilliantly illuminated. When the company had assembled and the parlors were thronged with the distinguished and scholarly members of '87, the scene presented was truly gay and picturesque. Congratulations were extended to the Seniors for the heroic manner with which they had stood the final examination test. The evening passed pleasantly in conversation. Very elegant refreshments were served at 10:30. When the company broke up, it was not without a feeling of sadness that they bade farewell to each other, remembering that this was probably the last time when as members of '87, they would meet with their class mates and the members of the faculty in social intercourse.
LAW.
The Seniors are manifesting their philanthropy by preparing a petition to be submitted to the board of Regents, in behalf of the future classes.
The Juniors have been invited to attend the alumni banquet, an honor never before conferred upon the Junior classes.
The relative merits and demerits of the Sunday law were argued at the last session of moot court. Owing to the ambiguity of one or two sections of the statutes of our State, Judge Green was unable to decide the point at issue.
Mr. I. F. Bradley, who was elected by the Seniors to make the hat speech, is a young colored man of more than ordinary ability. He is a graduate of Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Missouri, and is considered by many to be the best orator in his class.
We regret that through an unintentional mistake the name of Mr. J. T. Dickerson was omitted from our list of Class Day selections by the Senior Law class. Mr. Dickerson was chosen orator of that body. He is a talented speaker and will do credit to his class and honor the department which he represents.
It is not generally known that the Senior class boasts of a poet of no mean ability, in the person of Mr. G. W. Frolich. His style is pleasing and metre almost perfect, and many of his efforts possess real merit. We'll wager Gilmore's new spring hat that the classes for the next ten years to come will not have his equal. Mr. Frolich will write a class poem for class day exercises.

Supt. Crocker left last Monday for a visit to the principal eastern cities where he will inspect the different methods of steam heating. Supt. Crocker during his stay with us has proven a worthy and efficient officer, and we sincerely hope that he may return benefitted.
George T. Nicholson, who has been for some time past first assistant general passenger agent for the A. T. & Santa Fe railroad, has been promoted again and is now general passenger agent for that road. Mr. Nicholson was formerly a student of the University and has many friends among old students who will rejoice at his good fortune. Mr. Nicholson has been in the employ of the Santa Fe for a number of years and during that time has been steadily promoted, as a reward for his fidelity and ability. He is a remarkably young man to be placed in such an important position and the honor is no small one.
The ladies should be on the watch. We heard the other day of a brilliant young fellow who was borrowing all his brother's worn out neck wear and bestowing it upon his lady friends for crazy quilts. Ladies see that each article has the proper trade mark before you receive it.
Last Friday, E. E. Squires was installed president of the Orophilian. He made the following appointments: Critic, Ayers; pianist, Miss, Anna Bell; chorister, Higgins; sergeant-at-arms, Howard.
