Athletic Notes.
Jep Davis umpired the first game and Hickey the second. Both gave entire satisfaction.
Phi Delta Theta versus Sigma Chi at base ball grounds this afternoon at 3 p. m. sharp. Admission 10 cents.
The K. S. U. Association pays sixty dollars for the use of the grounds until June 10. The fraternities will pay half of this sum.
Our base ballists are in high glee over the fraternity games. They say that they are an excellent training school for the K. S. U. nine.
Don't be partisan in your applause. It is unfair and discouraging to the players when one side receives all the applause. Applaud all the good players and be fair to both sides.
The ladies were present in large numbers at both games. They seem to take a lively interest in the diamond contests and are not at all afraid of the weather.
"The Topeka papers speak of the Washburn ball club as the boss club of the State. The University will furnish them some good material to rub up against as soon as base ball season opens."—Herald-Tribune.
Excitement was at white heat in last Friday's game when the score stood 11 to 11 at the end of the sixth inning. The seventh was played without a run on either side. The eight innings settled it, but the score ran up on account of the darkness.
This afternoon (April 1st) the third game of the series will be played between the Phi Delt and Sigma Chi nines. Prof. A. G. Canfield will umpire the game. The players are arranged as follows:
March 25. March 26. April 1
1 vs 2 3 vs 4 5 vs 6
1 vs 6 2 vs 3 4 vs 5
1 vs 5 2 vs 4 3 vs 6

Some of the costumes worn in the games were unique, grotesque, picturesque and dazzling to look upon. Fraternity colors were displayed in various ways. The lavender tie and
The following schedule of games has been arranged and will be followed in marking out the dates for the remaining games. The table reads from left to right. The dates of the first three games are the only ones which have been arranged as yet: Phi Kappa Psi, 1; Beta Theta Pi, 2; Phi Gamma Delta, 3; Sigma Nu, 4; winner, April Ist, 5; looser, April Ist, 6.
pink string garter combination was a model of beauty and ingenuity. The cavalry gauntlets attracted much notice. The Phi Gams have worn the neatest uniforms up to date. The boys all looked well, however, and the showing of calves was quite creditable considering the depressing influences of a long winter.
Gilmore and Postlethwaite appeared to especial advantage and looked "plump and fat."
PHI GAM VS. SIGMA NU.
The second game of the series was played Saturday with a good sized crowd present. During the first two innings both clubs made but one tally in each, and it was thought that the game would be very close. But in the third the Phi Gams took the lead and kept it. The principle features of the game were the catching and batting of Campbell and the excellent field work of Phillips for the Sigma Nus, the phenomenally active work of Deford, Jackson's pitching, and the excellent base running of the Phi Gams. Hickey umpired the game. Curdy and Keyes scored. The following is the number of runs made:

LAW.
The next three concerts of the Department of Music will form a series of song recitals by Mr. P. D. Aldrich. They will be given in the University Hall. The first of the series is a recital of German song, the second opera selections and the third oratorio. The first one which was to be given on Tuesday last, was postponed on account of the concert at Plymouth church until next Tuesday evening. A cordial invitation is extended to the students and public to attend.

W. Y. Morgan, local editor of the Lawrence Journal, has resigned his position on that paper and has left for K. C. to accept a position on the Chicago, Santa Fe & California railroad. Mr. Morgan, during his residence in this city, became a student of the University and as editor of the Journal, has won many warm friends both among the business men and students, and his departure is regretted by all. Mr. Morgan has been one of the warmest friends and allies of the Courier ever since its existence. He was in the truest sense its founder. Advancing personally the money to get out the first issue, he has worked and toiled for its welfare both when in its infancy and time of need, and has kept a parental and watchful eye on it during its prosperity. As editor of the Journal, he has been faithful to the interests of the University and of Lawrence. His resignation from that paper will be a great loss both to the proprietor and to the citizens of Lawrence in general. During his connection with University he was considered one of its brightest and most faithful students. He graduated with the highest honors and was honored by the faculty and students. By his loss the University losses a true friend, the Courier a faithful ally and Lawrence a chief advancer of her interests. Mr. Morgan in his new departure carries with him the good will of all, who rejoice at his success and hope that prosperity will greet him in his new undertaking.
Don't forget that the first of the song recitals will be given next Tuesday evening.
