SENIOR PLAY.
The '04 People Will Have Something Entirely New to Give the Public Next Tuesday
On Tuesday evening the students and good townspeople of Lawrence will be given an opportunity to witness the production of an original play constructed on a plan differing widely from the usual plan of student productions.
Antherto the idea has locally prevailed that it was impossible to write a successful Senior Play without indulging in an excessive amount of "roasts" and "take offs" aimed at the faculty and the student body. Wip Van Rinkle is a complete refutation of that idea. It has all the essential elements and features that should be found in a Senior production. The play has a definite plot rising in interest as the complication increases and bacel of all is a distinct local coloring It has preserved the unities, and in a word represents a serious effort to produce a dignified worthy, interesting production Come out then, Tuesday or Wednesday evening, and see the metamorphosis of Rinkle. Watel him, the sober "grind" falling victim to the "wiles of Lady Jane." Come and see how co education was looked upon twenty years ago. Come and listen to the philosophy of wis and schenning Nero. Watch Wip in his love making and witness further its awful ending. B present to hear the University Spirit—the unique creation of the decade. By all means come to Prof. Asbury—a professor of the old school—and the onni present Angelica, "such a silly little thing," Stately Jane, Swee Marie, Winsome Dolly—come and see them all, in the class room on the campus, in the parlor.

the Hospitality of Dr. Strong
The Faculty and Their Ladies Enjoy
About one hundred and fifty people,consisting of the members of the University faculty and their wives,attended the faculty reception given by Dr. and Mrs. Strong Thursday evening.
Almost every member of the faculty was present, a vastly greater number than usually attend similar social affairs.
During the evening the Glee Club serenaded the Chancellor and his guests.
ATHLETICS.
The presence of all the faculty is further testimony of the respect in which the chancellor is held by his fellow teachers.

K. U. Base Ball Team on Trip—Seniors Win Class Championship.
The Friends took revenge for the shut out they received here and defeated K. U. at Wielita Monday, by a score of 13-2. Our team did not play in their usual form on account of having travelled all night.

K. U. defeated Arkansas at Fayetteville by a score of 5-2. Pyle nitched a good steady game and received good support.
In the second game at Fayetteville, K. U. lost to the Arkansans with a score of 13-2. Brown pitched for Kansas.
Yesterday the K. U. team was pitted against Washington University at St. Louis. The Missouri boys rather got the edge over Kansas, defeating them by a score of 20-10.
This record is not at all bad for a trip, and the boys are further handicapped by having only two regular pitchers.
They still have three games to play and the K. U. students feel confident that they will get at least two of these.
As a whole, the base ball team has done exceedingly well this spring. New players and adverse weather conditions combined have been a great drawback to having a winning team but in spite of these disadvantages the team has been a credit to K. U. this spring.

A DAILY NEXT YEAR.
If the Students Desire It. K. U. Will Have a Newspaper Every Day.
The question of whether or not the University of Kansas has a daily next year lies all together in the hands of the students and faculty. The management desires that five hundred subscribers be pledged for next year in order to insure a good, first class daily where the writers for the paper will be paid just as reporters on regular town dailies. A paper can be run with a less amount pledged but the five hundred subscribers at two dollars each will give the university a paper that will be a credit to the institution.
The management has asked that all students who will take the paper next year at two dollars leave their names at either the registrar's office or the check stand. No money is asked in advance but it is simply to feel the pulse of the student body and the faculty and this will give both bodies and all connected with the university an opportunity to express their sentiments in a quiet manner. It is especially desired that all seniors and those who leave school this year subscribe now by leaving their names and addresses so that they will receive the paper beginning with the opening of school next year. If you are already a subscriber and have just paid a dollar, it will be credited on the two that you pledge for next year.
If a daily is run next year, a newspaper room will be arranged in Fraser Hall and here students can go to discuss matters regarding the university or the paper with the editor and staff. It will be to the university what a town newspaper is to a town and the office will bear the same relation. The office will be arranged with desks and peanants and editor's pictures who are well known to the university and are friends of the institution.
The paper will also take an active part in all school life and will be more a factor in university life than the paper has been before. It may be issued in the morning or evening and will be carried by boys as other dailies A press stand is promised on McCook field for the use of the paper and other reporters. A circulation manager will also be installed which will be a new department in the operating of a university paper. Every department will be kept distinct from other departments and an entirely new system will be introduced for running the publication.
