THE EASTERN TRIP
IT WAS HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL BOTH FROM A FINANCIAL AND A WINNINGPOINT OF VIEW FIVE OUT OF NINE GAMES IS NOT SO BAD.
ECHOES FROM THE PRESS.
All Along the Line the Varsity Nine Received Favorable Comment. The Boys Were Praised by All Spectators.
It would not be treating that gallant 'Varsity nine right if the WEEKLY did not try to sing its praises a little bit. It was the first time that a Kansas team ever made such a tour and it was the most successful tour that any college team has made for years. It is a phenomenal record when a team wins five out of nine games on a trip. Even the professional teams that have the best of care and are fully accustomed to baseball life, do not make such records. Last year Nebraska won three of her sixteen games on the eastern trip and they spent almost twice as much time as our nine on the road. There is another thing that must be considered. The 'Varsity nine made remarkable time on its trip. Two games were played, we may say, between trains. The Iowa game was pulled off and the boys were out of town in three hours after they arrived. They were met at the train by busses hurriedly driven to the hotel and then rushed to the ball park, and after the game taken on a run to catch the train that was being held for them.
A similar thing happened at Columbia The boys were in town only three hours, but they showed Missouri a whole lot of things in those three hours.
The Kansas aggregation was highly honored on its trip. Manager Nichols held trains, had special meals at hotels, and carried things on just as if there were a whole train load of Kansans on the road.
The trip paid out in full, but it was only by the most judicious care on the part of the management. The local association had figured on losing at least $75 but the thing paid out. Manager Nichols told the WEBKLY man how it was done, but it won't bear repeating. It was holding trains and things that did it.
Of course the boys had a good time and were well treated. They put up at the best hotels all along the line. At Des Moines the boys spent three nights and two days they were shown every possible courtesy. Even the governor of that great state honored the sturdy Jayhawkers by showing them around the Capitol.
At Topeka and St Marys the boys were well treated, at Manhattan the farmers sort of snubbed cur boys and it is doubtful whether they fuss with the farmers any more. They can't play ball anyhow. In Illinois and Missouri the boys bad only such treatment as the western people can offer.
Besides being well treated the boys were courteous to their hosts. Manager Nichols and Captain Parent received congratulations at every town on the good behavior and manliness of their men. But then everybody knows the boys were nice so it is only necessary to review some of the games and print comments from the press.
All the farmers at the 'Ag' College were out but their nine did not care to stay in the game, and so played quits in the fifth, giving the 'Varsity the game by default.
Washburn won one of the greatest victories in the annals of her baseball history when she defeated K. U. last Thursday on Washburn field.
The following clippings from college papers in the schools where the boys played although somewhat partisan at times, do the 'Varsity boys credit and sufficiently explain the games played:
At Washburn the boys ought to have won the game. They played all around the local team and lost only on a technica decision. A questionable home run with both bases full is what did it.
infielders of both teams much credit is due for good, fast work. The players played up to perfect form, although their chances were few. So far as batting is concerned the teams broke about even, although at times the Washburn men no doubt got the best of it. Arkten pitched a fine game for Washburn. It is his first year in the box and by next year he will probably be a first class amateur pitcher. Hall threw the ball well for K U., although the Wash-burn men found him easily at opportune moments.
Although the ground was rather sluggish, the day was an ideal one for base ball, and both teams played with vim and ginger, that was truly refreshing. Comparatively few errors were made, and the most of these were wild throws. To the
The feature of the game was the long hit by Captain Stahl in the sixth inning. With three men on bases he drove the ball over the fence for a home run, netting four scores. Just before this hit the score were even, 1 to 1. K. U. went to work with a will in the remaining innings and succeeded in getting four runs, but were unable to tie the score. The game ended with the score of 6 to 5.

The score by innings:
What promised to be one of the prettiest games of base ball ever played upon the home diamond took place last Friday afternoon between the Kansas university Reds and the K S A C team. As it was, but four and a half innings were played and the score stood: University 1, College 2.
It was the great game of the season, everyone was interested, and by 3:30 a great throng of enthusiastic spectators had gathered at Athletic Park to witness the victory or defeat of our gallant nine. As usual, the College Cadet Band escorted the teams to the grounds.
The playing of the two teams was very even. At the beginning of the fifth inning the score stood 1 to 2 in favor of the "farmers."
The fifth inning was not completed, and it was during the first half of this inning that the controversy arose which caused the game to be discontinued. K U was at the bat and Freeburt had just scored one tally. There was a man on second and another on third. "Dad" Turner had the ball, and Coldren, the catcher, was standing on home plate, when one of the University players who was ostensibly coaching the runner on third base, suddely ran down the line towards the home plate. Turner at first glance naturally thought it was the base runner and made a slight movement as if to throw the ball, intending to put out the runner if such was the case. But umpire Moore immediately called a ball and ordered the base runners to advance a base.—Agricultural College Herald.
The Kansas University base ball team was defeated by the Varsity team Tuesday afternoon by a score of 10 to 3. That was the final score but if the Iowa team had kept up its standard of playing of the first four innings the Jayhawkers from Kans-sas U would have been shut out. The Iowans played ball in those innings. The Kansans—well they talked about playing. As one of their men remarked, they knew all about the game if they couldn't play it.

The game was one that possessed much interest for the well filled grandstand and the good plays of both teams were well appreciated. In the second inning Tucker made a good hit to center field but Keynolds stole it from him by a remarkable catch, which caught Morgan on first base and retired the side. In the first four innings Kansas had twelve men at bat. In three of these innings a fourth man faced the pitcher but a runner was caught in attempting to steal a base. Hurst and Yates made an excellent battery for Iowa and received good support all around. Parent, Housh and Moore are excellent players. The support which the

In a game replete wild and woolly errors, pyrotechnic batting, with now and then a brilliant play, Chicago university's ball team took Kansas university into camp yesterday by a score of 13 to 7. The game was won and lost half a dozen times by both teams, and it was not until the seventh inning that the maroons put the result beyond a doubt.
Rogers pitched a good game for the maverons, but his support was yellow. Eight men fanned before him, and the hits made off him were scattered. Morgan late of the Texas league, who pitched for Kansas, was found for eight hits, including a double, two triples, and a home run. All of Chicago's hits were opportune.
The features of the game included the battery work of Rogers and Harver, double plays by Chicago, the fielding of Poorman and the batting of the local team—Inter Ocean
The base ball team of the University of Kansas was defeated yesterday afternoon by the team of the University of Chicago, in one of the poorest exhibitions of base ball this season. The score was 13 to 7 in the maroon's favor.
The advent of the Kansas delegations in Chicago came near being a success. At one time they contrived to get the lead on the maroons, who through rank errors allowed the visitors to get the better end of the game. The maroons rallied, and by timely biting and good base running pulled the game out of the fire—Times Herald.

THE
SENIOR FACULTY GAME.
IT WAS HIGHLY AMUSING AND THERE WAS AN OCCASIONAL PLAY |WORTHY OF MENTION.
FACULTY USED THEIR HEADS.
They Would Fill the Bases and Then Walk, Forcing in Four Runs During the Game.
Saturday on McCook, the Seniors corralled the faculty in a very amusing, close and exciting game. Of course no one expected to see a fast game; the spectators went out to laugh and have a good time.
But there was an occasional good play that elicited a good round of applause, especially if the play was made by one of the unmarried members of the faculty.
Archibald Hogg caught a good game, and was admired by all the pretty girls. Carr, the imported twirler, played a good part of his own game. Carr has speed and things, and plays well. Mr Lincoln at short, picked one off occasionally and shot it over to first in good style. He also did good work at the bat, by waiting for a walk. Burdick, at second, was all right in his way but he weighs too much. Adams, Hunter and Bartow did good work looking for flies in the out field.
The Seniors played mighty fast ball the first inning or two. They started off the first inning and trotted five men around the circuit before the faculty could apply a brake to the fireworks. The seniors did all their scoring in the first three innings. After that they were in the air a good deal. The faculty showed superior head training and perhaps would have won the game if nine innings had been played.
It was a good game, better than people expected to see. Nobody swore because he did not get his money's worth. Every body had a good time.
It would be cruel to say how many errors, strike outs, hits and things there were but one very patient man kept count of them and he loves the faculty so much that he refuses to divulge the complete number.

Annual Sermon.
The rooting for both teams was good; the faculty rooters were mostly in the grand stand while the seniors' supporters were scattered, every where. George O. Foster led the rooting for the faculty on the bleachers and all the nice girls on the grandstand were fussy because he would not bring his cow bell over and join the big faculty crowd.
The Christian Associations have secure Dr S G Smith of St Paul, Minnesota, for the "annual sermon," May 20. Mr Smith is pastor of the People's church of St Paul and is perhaps the most prominent clergyman of the Northwest.
The service on the 20th will be in the evening at chapel hall.
