ATHLETICS
This morning at the Gymnasium, the Y. M. C. A. house boys held the annual basketball contest. The game is between the two houses and much local enthusiasm is present at these games. The North house was represented by Messrs Langworthy, Capt.; Grove, Brown Johnson, and Faust. The South house team comprises the following men: Robbins, Capt., Brummage, Myers, Farragher, Kepner.
Akins, catcher, had the great misfortune to break his thumb Monday during practice.
The $75 voted by the regents to the Athletic Association is to be applied toward the betterment of the Track. This sum together with an equal amount from the fund of the Association will be used to get the Track in good condition for the Missouri Meet.
The following is the School Basket Ball Schedule: Laws vs. Arts; Arts vs Engineers; Laws vs Engineers.
Manager Geo. Foster has announced the official baseball schedule for this spring. It is undoubtedly the best schedule that has been arranged in recent years. The number of good games to be played on McCook Field is larger than ever before. It includes two games with Nebraska, one with Highland Park and at least two, probably four, with the two rival league teams of Kansas City; also games with the best college teams in the state. There will be thirteen games at least and very probably fifteen on the home grounds. The schedule as given below is official with the exception of the dates with the Kansas City teams which are subject to change.

Dale Gear, of Kansas City, well known in University Athletic circles, was on the hill Thursday talking up his new baseball park in K.C. for the K. U.-M. U. game next Thanksgiving.
Captain White is still looking for a catcher. Several pretty good men are working for the place but no first class material has yet shown up. The team is assured of plenty of men for other positions.
The regents make a "hit." They have appropriated $75 for the improvement of the track on McCook Field.
It is unlikely that the football men will get the much-talked-of spring practice. Doubtless such training would create great interest in football for 1902 and would aid wonderfully in making a good team next fall.
Prof. E. Haworth received some time ago samples of oil from Moran, Kans. This point is the farthest east in the Kansas oil belt that has produced any product of value.

Work on the Pharmic Annual is progressing. The subject matter is being collected and the contract for printing will be let soon.
The Entomological Department is now the scene of much activity. Dr. Snow is superintending an overhauling of the specimens and is utilizing the recent acquisition of cabinets for permanent storage. Some specimens stored in cigar boxes and other inadequate receptacles the past two years have been found to have suffered from the attacks of vermin. The present work is to clear away the debris. We have in our Entomological museum the largest collection of insects of any institution of learning in the United States, Harvard alone excepted. There is about to be added a fine collection of African insects secured by Frank L. Snow, the Chancellor's son, during his stay in Africa. The collection comprises about ten thousand specimens of African flies and beetles many of great rarity, beauty and scientific value.
Mr. Frank Snow, the collector of these specimens, has just lately returned from a two years residence in Africa. Employed there as an overseer on his brother's ranch, he had ample time to make a careful collection
of insects of his country. As a result of his father's tutorage and his iron enthusiasm, his contribution comes as a valuable acquisition to our museum.
Dr. Bailey was in K. C. Tuesday to attend the regular monthly meeting of the American Chemical Association.
Prof. Dyche was on the hill the early part of the week but has returned to the bedside of his brother who is yet dangerously ill.
The Biological Club did not meet this week.
As last Thursday was the 169th anniversary of the birth of Joseph Priestly, the Chemical Club gave up the hour to a discussion of this man who did so much to further the science of Chemistry. Prof. Cady gave gave a short account of his experiments, and Dr. Franklin discussed the bearing of the experiments to a knowledge of Chemistry. The symposium was very entertaining.
The Automobile Ceases Publication.
--re use. The Automobile in its bold fearlessness has done an exceeding amount of good for K. U. It helped to preserve the old Dutch Windmill for future generations. It was partly instrumental in our obtaining a new museum. It has aroused the faculty and regents to our crying need of a new gymnasium. It has done its share toward making K. U. a more democratic institution.
On March 12, appeared the last issue of the Automobile. The history of this paper is rather interesting. The first copies were hand painted and all the work done upon them was performed by Edson Bros. and E.A. Schoeler. At the beginning of the present college year Chas. Edson became Editor-in-chief and J.E.McDonald, Business Manager, and a regularly printed magazine was issued.
At the first the paper met with warm approval. The issues were rapidly exhausted and the posters quickly stolen. The pungent wit, biting sarcasm and rough unshod manner of expression, made it so extremely interesting that it gained almost immediate popular favor both here and abroad.
When Chas, Edson first assumed control it was more interesting and more popular than ever. But no paper can continually "knock" and retain its popularity. After the Automobile had called the notice of the public to our miserable excuse for a gymnasium; after it had shown Snow Hall, crowded and inconvenient as it is, to be too small and too cramped to serve as a Museum; after it had laughed sarcastically at the foibles common, to each of the classes, and had taken a shot at the general air snobbishness pervading K. U., it was reduced to the necessity of commencing personal criticism. Consequently upon this it immediately began to lose its popularity and Monday ceased publication.
As the Automobile said, it enjoyed going along beside the precipice of popular favor with one wheel dragging over the edge. It simply expressed the thought of the general public in a harsher and more extravagant language than most people dare use.
a more decisive. Whatever may be offered in criticism of the periodical, the Automobile can not be accused of bias
or narrow partisanship. The editor held original views and possessed the fearlessness to cloth them in bold expression. He refused to accept the existent pernicious tendencies however deeply rooted in precedent it might be. He was sincere in his championship and his motives can be unquestioned. The K, U, WEEKLY, which has at times felt the force of his just criticism, hereby tenders its sister publication a sad farewell.
Board of Regents in Extra Session.
In accordance with the Chancellor's call the Board of Regents have been in extra session the past two days. To the urgency of this meeting the public and student body attached special significance. Reports were rife concerning the selection of Chancellor and much speculation has resulted therefrom. It seems now that there was no intention of making a selection of Chancellor at this session, all conditions along that line being informal and unofficial. Since the selection had been deferred so long, it had been conceded that a home man would secure the plumb and as a result the names of the following professors were mentioned as candidates for the coveted honor: Profs. Carruth, Blackmar, Adams, Haworth, and Marvin. It was developed however that the new Chancellor to be chosen at the April meeting will not be selected from among the faculty.
The business transacted thus far by the board has been primarily preliminary for the next meeting at which the heavy appropriations and permanent selections of instruction are made for the coming year.
The board voted an appropriation of $75 to the Athletic Association to be expended in repairing the track. The following degrees were granted: Ph. C. Arthur Hargis, Dwight S. Hamilton; A. B., Misses Myrtle Collins, Daisy Dean, Gertrude Sellards, Sarah E. Stanton, and Messrs, C. L. Robbins and C. A. Shively.
To succeed Prof. E.D. Adams, who has resigned to accept a position with Leland Stanford University next September, the board selected Wilbur C. Abbott. Mr. Abbott is a graduate of Wabash University, a post-graduate of Cornell, has a B.A. from Oxford, England, was an instructor of history at Ann Arbor and is now completing his second year in Dartmouth College in capacity of assistant professor in history. He is 35 years of age and married.
Twenty-five dollars was voted for apparatus for the Greek department.
partners. C. M. Freeman was elected assistant professor of electrical engineering to fill the vacancy of H. S. Carr.
Miss Esther Wilson was bestowed the teaching fellowship in German and to C. H. Shively the fellowship in education.
