(ANSAS TAKES ONE AND LOSSES ONE
Washburn 3, K. U. 13—A Good Game. Nebraska 11, Kansas 3— Not Quite so Good.
Kansas University was again victorious over the Washburn preachers last Saturday on McCook field. Most of the K. U. rooters were expecting a rather hard game, but it was apparent from the beginning that Washburn had no chance. Out boys landed on the ball at will and made few errors, while the latter was the rule for Washburn. The score was 13 to 3.
It must not be thought that because the Nebraskans were victorious over our boys Thursday that our team is no good and can not play ball. As a matter of fact our team this year is the best it has been for several years, and it is only the fact that the K. U. fans had counted so much on winning the game that makes the defeat hard to bear.
There is no questioning the fact that the cornbuskers are handy with the stick and were able to place their hits. It is also true that Alphin was not up to his usual form, because he has been pitching great ball this season. Nebraska's fielding appeared more brilliant because most of their balls were easy to field, whereas the Nebraskans placed their hits out of the K. U. fielders' reach. There are off days for every team and it is certain that K. U. played in hard luck.
Nebraska admits that her last year's team was superior to this, and as it will be remembered we beat that team on our home grounds. For Nebraska, Gaines twirled the ball, passing two men to first, fanning two and hitting one. Alphin for Kansas passed two two men, famed four and bit none. At third, Hood for Nebraska and White for K. U., showed up well. The former made two errors and the latter one. Shrant proved a little nervous behind the bat, missing several opportunities to cut off long pifering by dropping the ball.
The next hard game is with Highland Park, and the boys expect to respre revenge from them in double measure.

ment played at Lincoln, Neb., last week ended in an even break, Kansas taking the singles and Nebraska the doubles. The finals in singles, however, returned Webster Wilder, K. U.'s representative, winner over Farnsworth, holder of the championship of Iowa, South Dakota and Nebraska, and hitherto victorious inter-collegiate tennis star of the middle west. The doubles were only lost through deplorable carelessness and over-confidence.
Wilder drew Sanger and Sharrard Farnsworth in the opening round. Wilder finished the Nebraskan in two straight sets—6-1; 6-1. Sharrard's match with Farnsworth was a beautiful exhibition of tennis, and the match was in doubt until the last point had been made. The first set went to Farnsworth hands down—6-1. In the second set Sharrard took a decided brace winning 8-6 The third set went to Farnsworth by the same score 8-6. Then the two victors crossed rackets in the deciding match—Wilder vs. Farnsworth. The first set went to Wilder—6-3. This set was remarkable for brilliant rallies and the splendid head work of the two seasoned players. Wilder started off with a rush, winning the first three games. Farnsworth at this point changed his style of play entirely—assuming a crouching attitude, at the last minute pushing the ball out of his adversary's reach. This style somewhat puzzled the Kusan at first, as Farnsworth's small size placed him, in this position, almost on a level with the net, the Nebraskan taking the next three games. But by this time Wilder had formulated a counter plan of defence and attack which fairly riddled the "Midgets" system. Wilder always took the net on his running service and as Farnsworth returned the ball, would place it right back at his feet near the base line. The Corn-husker, of necessity bad to feed him a nice one right over the net, which Wilder, playing up close, could easily drive out of reach. This whirlwind playing completely took the heart out of the diminutive Nebraskan and Wilder won the next three games—and set—6-3. Wilder won the second set 6-4. At no time during the match was Kansas in danger. Both men were in good physical condition and as the score well shows, Farnsworth was simply played off his feet, by Wilder's volleying game.
In doubles our men out-played Nebraska but lost over over-confidence. Kansas won the first four games and then let down, allowing Nebraska to tie them. Wilder was mainly responsible for this slump—not nearly playing the game he is capable of. K. U. however to k the next two games and set —6-4. The next set also went to Kansas. Nebraska took the third and fourth sets tipping the score. In the fifth Kansas started off with a rush, taking the first five games and then by a most disgraceful "lay-down" allowed Nebraska to win 7 games straight and set -7-5. Sharrard was largely responsible for the loss of this set, as his previous efforts had worn him out.
The tournament was a victory for K.U., and we may heartily thank our men for bringing home a Nebraska scalp in compensation for sundry Kansas topknots both of football and baseball mourned for in the Jayhewker camp by the Kaw.
The excellent schedule which manager Foster has arranged for next fall predetermines an unusually successful season. The University of Wisconsin has finally recognized the athletic standing of K. U. by giving us a game. The team will go east about Oct 24; they will play Wisconsin Oct. 26 and Beloit College, at Beloit Wis. Oct 29. This trip ought to call out the very best material that Kansas can produce. We have always felt that Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa were not out of our class. Let us improve this opportunity to show them.
John Outland who has been playing full back on the University of Pennsylvania will coach the team He will certainly have much good material which was developed last year, to work with. Several good men are expected to come in next fall. Captain Algie and Elder will be extremely fast ends. Wilcox, Quigley, Schrant, Gramble, Copping and Buzzie will also be in the game.
The schedule is the best we have ever had. The fact that greater effort is being made every year to secure better schedules in both base ball and foot ball shows that Ka sa tis beginning to appreciate the work of the men who represent her in inter-collegiate athletics. Twelve games have been arranged for the first team and three for the second team. Seven out of these fifteen games including one with Vanderbilt University and one with Texas University, are to be played at home. The schedule of first team games are as follows:
Sept. 21, Lawrence High School, at Lawrence; Sept. 27, Ottawa University, at Lawrence; Oct. 5, Kansas State Normal, at Lawrence; Oct. 12, American School of Osteopathy, at Kirksville Mo.; Oct. 19, Washburn College, at Topeka; Oct. 26, Wisconsin State University; Oct. 29, Beloit College, at Beloit Wis.; Nov. 3, Vanderbilt University at Lawrence; Nov. 9, Haskell Indians, at Lawrence; Nov. 16, Nebraska State University at Lincoln; Nov. 23, Texas State University at Lawrence; Nov. 28, Missouri, at Kansas City.
Second team games: Oct. 12, Ottawa University, at Lawrence; Oct. 19, Haskell Indians at Haskell; Nov. 16, Washburn College at Lawrence.
GOLF.
The Golf tournament between Law rence and Topeka, held a week ago Satriday afternoon on the Oread links, was won by the Lawrence club by a score of 13 up. An enthusiastic crowd saw the contest which was close and interesting. Prof. Sterling made the best individual score; all the other players did good work. The games resulted as follows: Sterling, Oread, beat Pattison, Topeka, 4 up; Wyman, Topaka, beat Newman, Oread, 1 up; Hammatt, Topeka, beat Fletcher, Oread, 1 up; Carr, Oread, beat Morgan, Topeka, 3 up; McClung, Oread beat Sharman, Topeka, 3 up; Jones Oread, beat Gault, Topeka, 5 up.
The Oread club is much pleased at the result of the contest as it is the first match they have won. The Oread links are being moved. Prof. McClung will make a series of views of the links to be used in illustrating an article which is to appear in the New York magazine, American Golf.
At a reception of High School Principals at Chapman, May 4, the following K. U. students were present: T.B.Hanna, Atchison, Co., Wm. Kyser, Labette Co, S., M. Cook, Kansas City, Miss Mary P. Barnett, Clement C. Wick, C.A. Rober, J. W. Hullinger, Chapman.
NO. 30.
KANSAS WINS.
A CLOSE DEBATE.
Kansas won the second debate with Colorado, last Thursday night, at the Opera house. Only a small crowd was present, and those who were there were not very enthusiastic
Colorado was represented by Will C. Adams and Mr. O'Connor. They are both good speakers and perfect gentlemen. Mr. Adams was perhaps the better speaker of the two, but O'Connor was, nevertheless, a very effective talker. He was recently elected manager of "Silver and Gold." Colorado's college paper.
The debate was quite close and it was exceedingly difficult to tell which side had won. The judges, Judge Smart of Ottawa, Judge Barker of Lawrence, and Superintendent Smith of Lawrence, decided in favor of Kansas by a vote of two to one. When Mr. Spangler, as chairman, announced the result, one mighty "Rock Chalk", was given and the audience rushed upon the platform to congratulate the debaters.
Kansas was represented by W. F. Mowry of the law school, and C. A. Gardner, a Sophomore arts. Both are old debaters and it was confidently expected that victory would rest with Kansas. After the debate the speakers adjourned to Weidemann's and indulged in an ice cream soda all round.
Colorado won last year at Boulder, and this victory evens up old scores. One feature of the debate which should be mentioned is the music. The K. U. band was there and was not afraid to let itself be heard. Mr. Jehlich rendered a selection on his violin which was heartily appreciated by those present, and Frank Smith sung a bass solo. He never fails to make a bit with those who bear him.
SNOW LITERARY.
Last Saturday evening the Snow closed a successful year with a boys' program. The program was interesting from start to finish and it would be hard to pick out the best poets. Charley Edson made quite a bit with some of his poetry and was twice enclosed. Mr. Cook showed a series of stereoptic views taken in the Philippines, showing various incidents in Funston's career. It was quite a varied pr.gram, composed of music, recitations and a scientific paper by C. E. Carpenter.
The Snow has had a successful year and may justly claim to be the leading literary society of K. U. She furnished three out of eight inter state debaters. It is the only society on the hill where ladies take an active part. The last session of the year will be an informal one in the country at some picnic ground where a last farewell will be said next Saturday.
THE QUILL CLUB.
The Quill club is just closing its second year of existence. The club is not large but its members are enthusiastic and have benefited a great deal by their work. The programs for the past term have been very interesting and the attendance has been good. The club is going to close the year by having its picture taken and a social some day next week. The prospects for next year's work are bright
