Other Kansas men who should be mentioned with credit are C. Ackerman, Gordon, H.A. Finch, Purton and C.V. Jones.
The indoor meet was a success and will insure future interest in such events. The crowd was very enthusiastic and gave their favorites the best of support. As a conservative estimate there were at least 2,000 people present.
Our team is to be congratulated upon the showing it made. Kansas has met some discouragement this year in the loss of Capt. McCoy but the fact that the boys lacked but five points of winning such a hotly contested meet proves that Kansas has good material and that our men show the right spirit.
The athletic clubs and high school who furnished invitation events should be given credit and praise for their part in the entertaining.
Pay Moulton, K. U. alumnus deserves great credit for the interest he has shown in the work of the team. The good showing Kansas made is due in great measure to his coaching.
The basket ball team returned Thursday from their trip to Newton and Emporia.
K. U 18-Newton 10.
The first game was a victory for the University over Newton by a score of 18 to 10, the lineup for K. U. being, Michaelson and Pooler, forwards; Adams and Hicks, backs, and Allen, center
The people of Newton were certainly good to the boys and they enjoyed their stay there very much.
EMPORIA 25-K. U.13.
At Emporia Wednesday night they fared much worse both in and out of the game.
Emporia won by a score of 25 to 13. Michaelson and Pooler forwards, Brown and Barlow backs and Allen center was the line up for Kansas.
K. U. 16-OTTawa 26.
The Basket Ball between the 'Varsity and Ottawa, at Ottawa last Monday, ended in a victory for the Baptists by a score of 26 to 16. Brown, Michaelson, Stelter, Adams and Barlow represented K. U. Chas. Lovelace accompanied the team as manager. Mgr. Plank being in Kansas City.
METHODISTS VISIT K. U.
M. E. Conference Attends Chapel— Bishop Walden Talks to Students
The Methodist conference in session in Lawrence this week paid the University a visit Friday morning. Bishop Walden addressed the students during chapel exercises. He told of his first visit to Mount Oread in 1857 before the University had ever been thought of and said that the hill fortified by the free-state men against the pro-slavery forces presented a far different appearance from the present Oread, turned into a campus and covered with university buildings. The bishop emphasized the importance to the college men and women of cultivating a fondness for reading good books and thinking of them.
The university students enjoyed Bishop Walden's talk and felt that the conference had done them no small honor in putting aside their conference work to pay a visit to the state's highest educational institution.
DEBATES.
How the New Plan for Choosing Debaters is Working.
The success of the new plan of choosing debaters has surprised its most ardent supporters. Next week the men who will finally represent the university will be chosen in a public contest. Whoever is chosen from the debating squad to make up the teams,confidence is expressed on all sides that they will know their respective questions better than any teams ever before sent
out by Kansas. The debating squad has now given nearly two months to the study of the questions. They have met at least twice a week for oral debate, considerable rivalry between men and sides has resulted, all of which has tended to bring out the strong and weak points of the question at issue.
The new plan will also increase interest in the preliminary contests. Heretofore men have been in the preliminaries who have given little if any previous study to the questions. This year the men will know their subjects thoroughly and will use skill and ability in presenting their sides so that interest and enthusiasm will nearly approach that of an inter-state debate.
BAKER OBJECTS
The Wearers of the Orange Think They Didn't Have a Fair Show at Topeka.
The Baker Orange has a two-column article in the last issue which begins: "We want to say at the beginning of this article that anything we may say is not inspired by spite or the sting of defeat." Then follows a roast on the entire affair, Washburn students coming in for the greater share. "The whole affair seemed to be a steal from beginning to end," says the article. After the Baker man had completed his oration, the "Orange" says. "Everyone felt confident that Baker had won either first or second place, but it seems to have been the general opinion at Topeka that Baker must not have a place, as her record at the present was too far ahead of her competitors and her course must be checked, and it was."
Kansas University students remember another institution which had its course checked about a year ago.

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
The management of the Olympic games at the St. Louis Exposition has created a permanent gymnasium and a stadium with a seating capacity of 35,-000 on the grounds of the exposition. The stadium is an exact counterpart of those historic ones of the Romans and after the games both it and the gymnasium will become the property of the Washington University of St. Louis.
The Big Four Railroad company has subscribed $15,000 toward the erection of the proposed memorial gym::asium at Purdue University.
President James of Northwestern University, has made announcement of the fact that the University will establish an American institute of Germanics which will not be a mere department, but a university of itself. Such a novel and progressive project has rarely been paralleled in the history of American institutions. Mr. James would devote this institute to the study of Germanic civilization; language, literature, art, music, philosophy, politics and institutions. A new building will be erected for the new school which is to be representative of german architecture, and every effort will be made to carry out distinctively german ideas throughout. President James expects the new institution to draw a large patronage from those who desire to specialize in German, since this section of the country is the center of the German population.
The Japan students at Yale recently elected a committee to raise funds for Japan. The proceeds are to be devoted to the Red Cross service, the war board and the military department. The funds will be sent to the Japanese consul in New York, who has been commissioned to raise $5,000,000 in the United States as soon as possible.
