Athletic Notes.
The K. S. U. nine was called for practice yesterday afternoon.
A game will probably be played between K. S. U. and Washburn within two weeks. The time has not been set as yet.
This afternoon the fourth game of the series will be played between (1) Phi Psis and (6) Sigma Chis. Usual time and admission.
Some of the clubs are beginning to fear that the letter Phi is a mascotte. The name of every winning club so far has contained it.
Next Friday afternoon the Betas and Phi Gams play the fifth game. The positions of the players are substantially the same as in former games.
The Phi Delts wore very handsome uniforms and made a fine appearance. Their uniforms were all alike and nearly every player was provided with one. The Sigma Chis wore knickerbockers.
PHI DELTS VS. SIGMA CHIS.
A fine day, a good crowd and the large number of whitewashes were features of last Friday's game. The Phi Delts gained a great advantage in the first inning which made a close game almost impossible. After the first inning the Sigma Chis picked up and played a good game but they were unable to overcome the advantage which the Phi Delts had already gained. For the Phi Delts both the Kelloggs, Finney and of course Davis played a good game. For the Sigma Shis, Cunkle, Swank and Jus Bowersock played well. Swank did good work considering the fact that it was his first game. Runs were made as follows;
Phi Delts. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Again we repeat in yet more clarion tones that the K. S.U. nine is not practicing enough. While it is true that some of its members are receiving considerable practice, yet as a whole, the club has practiced very little. The individual members of the club are perhaps good enough players and do not feel the need of a great amount of practice but the value of playing together can scarcely be overestimated. It is right here that our clubs have been weak in the past, their members have not played
together enough to learn the weak places and how to protect them. We had rather see the fraternity games discontinued entirely if they interfere in any way with the formation of a good University nine. We will probably be called upon to play several games with clubs from neighboring colleges and ought to make as good a showing as possible. If our club is weak and not united it will convey to others the idea that we have neither college spirit nor interest in K. S. U.'s success. Again, it is unjust and unfair to those who are interested and have given tangible proofs of their interest. We believe that we have the material for the best college club in the State, but if the boys are not willing to work it up the club had better be disbanded at once.
The Fraternities.
The I. C.'s, gave a "grub" at Miss Emma White's Saturday evening. Some of the favored ones among the K.A.T. boys were present.
Mettner is making large group pictures for the halls of both the Phi Delts and Phi Psis. They will be of good size, and make, of course, very handsome ornaments.
The Betas have purchased new furniture and fittings for their hall, which, as before the fire, will be on the fourth floor of the opera block. They propose to have things equally as elegant as before.
The Sigma Nus gave a party last Friday evening in K. of P. hall. Dancing, card playing and refreshments filled the time. The refreshments were served in ante-rooms and were prepared by Falley.
Messrs. Fearl, Jenks, Houk, Schall,
Dunn, Campbell, Gilmore, Lippincott,
Morris, Jep Davis, Plumb, Taylor,
Nickle, Postlethwaite, Hutchings,
Frank Reed, Ollie Walker, Jus
and Fred Bowersock and McFarland.
Miss KateWilder went to Lincoln, Nebraska, yesterday to establish the chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta (at that place) which was granted by the last K. A.T. convention. The new chapter will be known as the Rho.
Last Friday evening the Kappa Alpha Thetaes entertained at the home of Miss May Walker on Tennessee street. A most enjoyable time was had. Conversation, card-playing and dancing occupied the time which passed rapidly. About 11 o'clock refreshments were served that fully merited the praise (actions speak louder than words) which was bestowed upon them. At a late hour the company broke up tired with much dancing,yet loath to leave, each guest ready to assent that as entertainers the K. A.T.'s were seldom equalled and never excelled. The following is a list of those present: Misses Maggie Eidemiller, Lizzie Wilder, Kate Wilder, Luella Moore, Bessie Root; Ella Ropes, Sydney Dailey, Maud Thrasher, Kate Merrill, Tella Chapman, Ella and Emma Bartell, Alice Cummings, Dottie Simpson, Mamie Tisdale, Marcella Howland and Martique Babcock;
Regents' Meeting.
The Board of Regents of the State University held a meeting last Thursday. Prof. Fitzpatrick, formerly secretary of the board, was chosen vicepresident; Charles Gleed, secretary, and Miss Carrie Watson, librarian. The following is a list of the committees of the board:
Instruction, F. A. Fitzpatrick, C. W. Smith, C. S. Gleed; library and apparatus, C. S. Gleed, M. P. Simpson, J. A. Lippincott; finance, C. R. Mitchell, A. G. Otis, M. P. Simpson; buildings, grounds and supplies, A. G. Otis, J. A. Lippincott, Charles Gleed; University lands and endowment, C. R. Mitchell, M. P. Simpson, A. G. Otis; reports and publications, C. W. Smith, C. R. Mitchell, J. A. Lippincott.
The committee on buildings, supplies and grounds, was directed to take the preliminary steps, looking to the erection of a boiler house, and the expenditure of the $5,000 appropriated for strengthening the basement walls of the main building.
Prof. Brownell presented his resignation as assistant in English, and the Board accepted it with hearty recognition of the excellent work done during the four years of his incumbency of office. The matter of successor, and any other appointments on the board of instruction was referred to that committee.
Personal.
Mr. P. D. Aldrich was elected to professorship of vocal culture, and Mr. A.G. Canfield as professor of French. Prof. Sterling was granted a leave of absence for one year, to continue his studies, but will remain, however, to the close of the year. His selection of Miss Agnes Emery to take his positionwas approved by the board.
The forth-coming catalogue is about ready to be sent to the printer. It will indicate such marked improvement in the course of study, and otherwise, as will undoubtedly be very gratifying to the friends of the University.
Tuesday evening Prof. Aldrich assisted by Prof. McDonald and Miss Gore, gave the first of the "Song Recitals." German song was the subject treated; its progress and development were briefly sketched by short descriptions and historical references, songs from the different authors were rendered. The recital was entertaining both on account of the valuable instruction given and the excellent rendition of choice music. Of the instrumental pieces the audience seemed to enjoy most, "Hungarian Rhapsodies" by Prof. McDonald and Miss Gore. The second recital will be given this evening.

Our genial and accommodating gardner, Mr. Mears, is wrathy. After bestowing the greatest care for weeks upon his sprouting bulbs in the campus beds, this morning found that the first to appear, had been plucked by some appreciative vandal. We do not blame him. These flower beds are not for the accommodation of flower-loving students, but for beautifying the appearance of the campus.
