ATHLETICS.
BASKEG BALL GEAM REGURNS.
WHITE ELECTED BASE BALL CAPT.
The Basket Ball team returned last Thursday from a successful six days' trip through Iowa and Missouri. The results of the first three games of the trip were given in last week's paper
After leaving Iowa University the team went to Fairfield where they put up a poor game against Co. M, of the Iowa National Guards, losing by a somewhat one-sided score.
At Ottawa, the Kansas boys went against the strongest team in southeastern Iowa and lost by a close score of 20 to 15.
After so many defeats the boys made a good finish by defacting William Jewel in a hotly contested game. William Jewel had not lost a game on their home floor since Kansas beat them in 1898, and were confident of holding their reputation.
Smith played his first full game since his injury at Muscatine. His presence put new life into the boys and they won by a score of 19 to 16.
The team is enthusiastic over the success of the trip and the cordial treatment accorded them, especially at Des Moines and Ottumwa.
An informal meeting of the Athletic Board was called Monday afternoon for the purpose of listening to the claim of the University Medical College of Kansas City, to a resumption of athletic relations with K. U. The claim and argument in favor of the Medies was ably presented by Dr. Jackson, Secretary of U. M. C.;Dr. James, Dean of the school; Dr. Tiffany, and Dr. Shively, manager of the Medie team.
The game scheduled with Nebraska has been called off but an attempt will be made to arrange it for a later date.
The U. M. C. complains against the stringency of the Chicago conference rules. They ask that men who played in other institutions in 1901 be permitted to play on their team in 1902; also that they be permitted to offer tuition as an inducement to men to join their team. Other points of minor importance were discussed at length. The Board will probably take some action at today's meeting.
At Thursday's meeting the Board elected Verne Pierson student foot-ball manager; Will Sherrett, track captain, and "Billy" White, last year's third baseman, captain for 1902 baseball team.
John Outland, who has won a place in the hearts of the K. U. students, during his connection with the university as coach of the foot ball team, will coach the Indian team next year. Lawrence and K.U. are glad to know that Mr. Outland will remain here and be active in athletic circles.
Curtis, captain of the 1902 Wisconsin team, has been elected to coach the 1902 Jayhawkers. He will arrive in Lawrence about Sept. 1, to begin work.
General Manager Foster went to Kansas City, Friday, where he met Dr. Hetherington of M. S. U. for the purpose of discussing athletic relations between the two schools.
President Eliot, of Harvard, has produced good argument and statistics to prove that the standing of a university in athletic sports does not in the least affect its growth. M. Ed Martin, writing in Harpers Weekly, comments President Eliot's report. He says in part: These may not be very significant findings, but they are interesting and for any one who thinks a modern American university is a sort of vermiform appendix to a foot ball team they may be instructive. The truth is that the university is the important entity, and the foot ball team is the appendix, disputable as to its value, liable to sudden and dangerous inflammations, good ridance when it swells and threatens to burst, but harmless and perhaps useful as long as it keeps its place. Education ought to pat college athletics on the back, for they are cheerful, healthy and commendable. But when college athletics puts education on the back, that is merely another case of the fly on the bull's horn who leaned back and said "Gosh! See our Dust!"

ENGINEERS' BANQUET.
This evening at eight o'clock the Annual Engineers' Banquet will be held in the I. O. O. F. Hall. Plates have been laid for seventy-five guests, and this number will probably attend. In one portion of the hall provisions have been made for games and other forms of entertainment. These, together with social commingling, will occupy the early part of the evening, after which all will repair to the festive board and partake of the following menu:
Bonillon.
Veal Loaf, a la Creole.
Cold Ham. French Peas.
French Tea Rolls.
Cranberry Jelly.
Scalloped Potatoes.
Chicken Salad.
Neapolitan Ice Cream.
Assorted Cake.
Cafe Noir.
Following this physical regalment, the mental feast is to follow. Dean Marvin will act as toastmaster, and during the evening Professors Hood, Diemer, Haworth and Blake will respond to assigned topics, abounding naturally in reminiscence and friendly suggestion, while Messrs. W.P.Murphy, W.C.Edwards, L.Flynt and N.P. Sherwood representing their respective classes, will vie in sage advice and social wit. The WEEKLY regrets exceedingly that by force of eire instance, it is compelled to present this article in the future tense.
DR. ANDREWS' LECTURE.
Problems of Greater America Ably Presented by Chancellor Andrews.
One of the rarest intellectual treats of the season was provided in Mr Andrews' lecture Saturday night. About four hundred people turned out to hear this distinguished educator speak on the "Problems of Greater America." Prof. Hodder presided at the meeting and in a terse statement of Mr. Andrews' life and work introduced the speaker of the evening.
In his opening remarks, Dr. Andrews stated that the United States in becoming a world power has become essentially a new United States. This change could be traced to innate tendencies rather than to pure accident. In our new condition our country was confronted with problems and the chiefest of these he wished to discuss.
The first of these problems was that of better diplomatic and counselor service. It is an undeniable fact that our foreign service is not the most efficient in the field. In diplomatic controversies it is not unusual for the United States to come out second best. Our men are incapable of coping with foreign representatives, skilled in every phase of diplomacy. Not that this country is inferior in material, but the material is diverted into the manifold distracting channels of our business world. A diplomat's skill lay not so much in broad, comprehensive knowledge of international law as a concrete knowledge of the intricate workings and relations of nations.
Next the Problem of Colonial Administration was discussed. In the management of her outside dependencies, our country faced the problem of England and other world powers; that of giving the best possible government to a people far removed from the seat of power, a people differing in race, customs and natural dispositions and probably forever hostile to its protege. In view of our high destiny it devolved upon us to solve this problem better than any country had ever done. To accomplish this, the precepts of precedence and our superior civic life would assist us. We must not coerce our colonies to learn English. We must not banish with a blow their tribal ceremonies. The sacredness of the mother tongue and these tribal institutions were forcibly portrayed. By encouragement, in the course of time, these peoples would gradually assume our customs, language and religion. We must have no crown colonies. As soon as these peoples are intellectually capable of assuming the elective franchise, and self-government, give them their independence either under or outside of the flag.
NO.19.
The Problem of the Monroe Doctrine, as Amended, was the next topic presented. The speaker here defined the Monroe Doctrine as commonly applied. He showed very effectively the "dog-in-the-manger" attitude we had assumed. With positive insistence, we commanded non-interference from European powers and yet individually did nothing to uplift our Spanish-American neighbors. Very little progress had been made in these states since independence had been secured. Revolution succeeded revolution with ludicrous frequency. This unstability of government together with the difficulty of securing clear title to real estate retarded any marked progress. If we did not amend the Monroe Doctrine and assume a new attitude toward this wonderfully resourceful country, the greedy empires of Europe would brook no further interference and we would find ourselves opposed by a powerful coalition.
In the next place the United States as a Pacific Ocean power was ably discussed. With a few terse statements, the speaker showed how intimately the Pacific Ocean was connected with our future destiny. Strategists recognized its importance, yet defensive means very slowly assumed form. A navy with all the appurences should be supplied. Apparently we have no Pacific enemies, and our conservatives are willing to rely on the good sense of our country to prevent creating any. Yet a complex commercial problem that the enlightenment of the Tropies will produce, may bring about most serious entanglements. At this point the speaker said that the beaver-like activity of Russia might be considered as an implicit menace. She is the most ambitious country in the world. Dynasty has succeeded dynasty, but the everlasting world power purpose of the Russian has remained. By the completion of the Trans-Siberian railway she is now within fifteen days of us—a proximity that may bode us no good. China, the disturbing element of future international relations, must look to us for her ultimate welfare. And with an injunction not to prove recrent to our manifest duty, Dr. Andrews concluded his highly profitable talk. After the lecture the doctor was given an informal reception in Fraser Hall.
