VOL. III. APRIL 12,1895. NO.28. The spring Oratorical contest comes off on the 29th inst. We sincerely hope every one who has any abilities along this line will enter this contest to win. While the board of Regents did not put oratorical training within the reach of the student body, yet with a little extra expense, which is far from money wasted, you can secure competent training from Mrs. Clark. THE University debaters have been chosen, and we feel sure that they are the men who will win the laurels in the coming debate with Nebraska. All they need now is some genuine enthusiasm on the part of the students to keep up their spirits in the contest. They, as well as the various ball teams, need your support and encouragement, not only at the contest but also before. Show them that you are interested in the outcome and they will beat Nebraska three to one. Rah! Rah! for Little, Brady, Madden, Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, K.U. A most startling and remarkable pieces of newspaper enterprise (? ) was exhibited by the Courier which appeared Friday of last week. In that issue they took occasion to answer and call attention to several articles which appeared in the STUDENT'S JOURNAL the next day. We presume that we shall be compelled to send our matter to the printer under seal, and have him keep it under lock and key, as it might happen sometime that we should not desire matter to be advertised and commented upon by the Courier before it was published. Courier editors, where is your courtesy? A proper appreciation of the work of Troxel and Foster and the kindness of the business men in Kansas City and Lawrence should bring every student who can possibly spare the time into the ranks of contestants for the spring athletic meet. Many valuable and beautiful prizes are to be competed for and it would certainly amply repay any student to engage in these vigorous and manly sports, even though he lose the prize. Should he win, however, the prize will to him be "a thing of beauty and a joy forever."
