The Board of Directors of the Athletic Association held a meeting last Friday, Newson, Garrett and May were present. Every member of the Board was personally requested to be present. This is the third time this has occurred within the last two weeks Down at Florence, Kansas, last Friday there was a game of ball between the fats and the leans. M. E. Hickey, caught for the fats, who won the game by a score of 13 to 4. Good for Hickey.
The Annapolis Navy Academy Athletics meet was held on the twelfth. A fifty yard swimming race was on the list of events. No phenomenal records were made.
So far as the investigation conducted by Mr. Walter Camp into the popular standing of foot ball as a college sport has progressed, the friends of that athletic game have nothing to fear. Out of L100 answers to Mr. Camp's queries it has been impossible to find one which condenss the game without finding some corresponding, and usually over-balancing, advantage in it. These answers comprise a wide range of sentiment, from college presidents to freshmen. They include a great many suggestions toward making the game more popular and less rough, and by studying the best of these it will be possible to still further enthrone foot ball as the ideal college sport.
The Kansas City Athletic Club inhaled in a field meet last week.
Yale won the most points in last week's athletic meet at New Haven, between Yale and Harvard. The contest was close and interesting. The 220 yard hurdle race was won by Bremer, 35, of Harvard; time 24 3-5, breaking the world's record by one-fifth of a second. Hickock, '95, of Yale, won the 16 pound hammer throw, distance 113 feet, 11 inches. This is the best hammer throw in inter-collegiate records.
baker defeated Ottawa last Monday by a score of 10 to 3.
THE BALL GAME LAST SATURDAY.
The M. S. U. Athletic Contest comes off on June 5th and includes among other things, a running high kick, kicking foot ball, hop-skip-and-jump and a bicycle race of three miles.
The game was called at 3:30 and turned out to be a lively affair.
THE BALL GAME LAST SATURDAY.
A good sized crowd saw a well-played ball game at McCook field last Saturday between K. U. and the College of Emporia. The Emporia team, although badly defeated in the previous games, was not discouraged, and gathered up all the professionals available with the intention of beating the University.
In the first inning the C. of E. nearly succeeded in scoring, Blackshire being put out at home base K. U. started poorly, Chamberlain, Smith and Hogeboom fanning out in the first inning.
The second inning was short, both sides being retired without scoring. In the third inning no one reached second base, and the spectators began to show some interest in the game.
The fun began in the fourth, Alden making a two-bagger and Steinberger a three-bagger, both scoring. Hogeboom struck out.
The C. of E. drew a blank in the fifth inning and Mitchell scored for K. U.
The score was nearly tied in the sixth when two men reached first on balls and Evans and Gabriel scored a run on errors. Steinberger was put out on home base and retired K. U. Score 3 to 2. K. U. scored one in the seventh, and four on the eighth, winning the game.
Score by innings:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Col. of Emporia—0 0 0 0 0 2 1 0 0-3
K. U. —0 0 0 2 1 0 1 4 0-8

A Barb-Frat ball team will be played Wednesday, May 23rd, at 3 o'clock. The non-fraternal team will probably be: Wagner, pitcher; Hogeboom, catcher; Parker, 1st base; Harvey, 2nd base; Hogeboom, 3rd base; Williamson, shortstop; Steinberger, etc., fielders.
The Requirements in Freshman Botany.
The class will be required to hand in fifty mounted plants. These should include the plants studied in the lecture room and laboratory. Of this fifty, ten should be cryptogams, illustrating the lectures given to the class. The faciece, must contain first, the lecture notes illustrated with drawings; second, the drawings and notes made in the laboratory and third, the mounted specimens.
Shanes photos are the best.

The Senior Class Play.
The Play written by the Senior Class of the University will be given Wednesday evening May 30, at the Opera House. It is a comedy on University affairs, and will surely be interesting to all University students. The Seniors will have entire charge of the play themselves, having chosen one of their own number, Lorin B. Sears as stage manager. This is an entirely new departure from the usual insane and savage-like performances which take place class day, and should be encouraged and aided.
Athletic.
What's the matter with the Law-
rance Daily Journal? The Journal or
rather the red headed local fiend
seems to be awfully worried about the
way the affairs of the University Athetic Association are conducted. He never passes an opportunity to howl over some imaginary outrage perpetrated at the University. He has discovered that the boxing and wrestling costumes worn in the contests are indecent. We would suggest that he offer the Athletic Association the use of some of his full dress suits.
The Inter-state (oratorical) Contest.
The In recent Inter-state Oratorical Contest held at Indianapolis, C. F. Wishart of Mammoth College Illinois won first place by reason of his very strong and almost perfect delivery. Mr. Wishart's brother is a United Pressbyterian minister, and preached here in Lawrence at that church recently. Those who heard him will not be surprised to learn that his brother C. F. Wishart who is also studying for the ministry, should win first place. Mr. Wishart's oration was on the subject "The Policy of Richelieu."
The second place was by L. F. Dim,
mit of Do Pauwain University, on the sub-
ject "The Humane Spirit in Modern
Civilization." J. W Wetzel of Winfield
the man from Kansas, took fifth place,
his delivery not being nearly so strong
as at the State Contest in Topeka.
The University Quarterly.
The next number of the University Quarterly will contain an article on "Mound Builders Discovered in Wyandotte County Kansas," by Barmum Brown. During the spring vacation Messrs Brown and Williamson opened four mounds near Edwardsville. These mounds were situated on an eminence in a row running east and west, and were about eighty feet apart. The mounds contained from one to two or three skeletons each, together with stone scrapers, arrow heads, and charcoal. In one was found a stone containing peculiar notches. But the most remarkable specimen was a male skull possessing marked characteristics in the way of low forehead, prominent superciliary ridges, and an enormous protruding jaw. Some pottery was found with it. The inside of the limestone cavern which contained these remains was greatly colored by fire which apparently had been used in the burial rites. The mound in which it was found was much larger than the others and contained no other skeleton. Evidently this man was a chief of his tribe.
Some weeks ago, a letter addressed to the Women's League of Kansas University was received from the Women's League of Michigan University. This letter contained a proposition that our society should join in a correspondence league and send out a circular letter each year, to the following institutions where women are educated: Vassar, Wesleyan, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston University, Cornell, Welshen, Northwestern, and Michigan. These letters are intended to serve as a record of the social life of those institutions and what is desired is a picture of the life the college woman lead, outside of study hours.
Important Meeting of the Women's League.
The 150 H. P. Russell engine has arrived and is being put in position. It will furnish power for the new dynamo, which is to light and heat the new buildings, and run the motor for the wells. Steam for the engine will be furnished by two new boilers which are almost ready for work.
Engineering Notes.
Answers were requested to a number of questions, and most of them have been responded to in different letters which have been received from these institutions, in a manner which is frank, friendly, and full of interest. The letters will be read on Friday afternoon May 18 at 5 o'clock in room 15 and a full attendance of the members of the Women's League and of all young women of the different departments of the University is desired.
Several of the students are making small dynamos and motors. The castings are made at the foundation and the boys do the rest of the work.
The last meeting of the electrical seminary for this year will be held Monday afternoon at four o'clock. The professors belonging to the seminary will have charge of the meeting
Base Ball News.
The Ottawa girls are enterprising. They are also athletic, three games of base ball being already recorded to their credit this spring. Dressed in base ball suits both athletic and becoming, two nines composed of college girls had a championship game upon the campus. The players were so badly embarrassed by the assembled multitude however that both teams were dismissed with the result of the match, and in order to decide the championship more decisively played another game one cool morning at 5 o'clock with no one nigh to hinder. The third game was between the college girls and the town girls and was played last Saturday afternoon before a large and voiferous audience. The game was characterized by heavy batting and no errors, and stood at the end of the fifth inning 20 to 24 in favor of the college.
From the above it might be supposed that Ottawa is ahead of K. U., but such is not the 'ease. In two games already the K. U. girls defeated teams of K. U. boys although the latter were old and experienced ball players.
