---O--given overin Kansas City, Mo. It was in charge of the ladies of the Athenaeum and was given in their hall, in the Pepper building. A small but attentive audience greeted the club and the members realized that it was the most critical they had yet faced. But with the little practice they had had, the program was very well rendered.
TIGERS 21; K. U. 15.
THE JAYHAWKERS BEATEN THE SECOND TIME BY THE KANSAS CITY CHAMPIONS.
IT WAS A VERY FINE CONTEST.
Funk Threw Eight Goals for the Tigers.
F. Owens Played the Star Game
for K. U. but They All Did
Some Good Work.
The Kansas City Tigers won again last Friday by a score of 21 to 12, but it was a hard fought victory. One of the officials said after the game that it was the best game that the Tigers had participated in this season.
The work of both teams was fast. Funk of the Tigers was the star of the game and his goal throwing was phenomenal. Eight of the ten goals that his team scored were thrown by him, and some of them were very difficult. Ricksecker ond Ashley also put up a very good game.
The honors of the K U team belong to F. Owens, who threw three goals and did good work in passing and defensive play. Manager Russell went into the game last night for the first time this year, and did excellent work, throwing a difficult goal from the field and participating in many quick passes. Dandruff played a fast game at forward and Yahn put us his usually strong defensive back, but Funk was too tall for him to buck effectively.
Capt H Owens played a good game at center and got into the different plays in his usual manner. He also threw a difficult goal.
This will probably be the last basket ball game of the season, as Omaha has decided not to come here as was at first intended. Omaha proposed a trip including Kansas City and Lawrence. Besides K-U. a game was to have been played with the Haskell Indians, but Manager Russell has received word that the trip has been given up.

THE GLEE CLUB TRIP.
The;Glee club, after many futile attempts to arrange dates, finally made the trip to Olathe and Kansas City last week. So much time had elapsed since the Lawrence entertainment that the boys were somewhat out of practice, but they made a good showing, nevertheless.
Two Concerts Given at Kansas City and
Concerts Given at Kansas
One at Oliathe to appreciative
Audiences.
Good reports must have preceded the club to Olathe, for almost all the seats were sold before the doors were opened. The audience was an appreciative one; the boys' were made to feet at home, and they carried out the program in their old time form. x
After the concert a dance was given in honor of the members of the club. A few of the leading society young men provided the girls and then sacrificed their own pleasure for the entertainment of their guests. The spirit manifested reminded the boys of the reception tendered them at Cofebyville.
On the following day two concerts were given in Kansas City. The first was a noon engagement at the Kansas City, Kansas, High School. The assembly room was filled with High School students, who seemed very much delighted with the entertainment, and especially with the coon songs and ragtime. The program was varied to suit their tastes and encores were frequent. So frequent, in fact, were the encores that the curtain had to be finally rung-down in order to let the boys go to dinner.
In the evening the final concert was
Mr. Frank House took part in the program in place of Mr.Warkentin, and sang two solos which were well received.
Another ovalation in the way of a dance, was given the boys after the concert and all participated. The dance hall was beautifully decorated in K. U. colors and refreshments consisting of punch, orange ice, and cake was served throughout the evening. Every one was a committee of one to see that the K U men had a good time, and so far no complaints have been registered.
This was a fitting close to the series of concerts given by the K U Glee Club of '90-'oo. The boys all appreciate the treatment they have received throughout the State and they cannot but feel that they have done credit to their University. It is not likely that any further trips will be made this spring.
the Annual Banquet on April 7th—Gov-
ernor Stanley Toastmaster.
EVENT OF THE YEAR IN Y. M. G. A.
The steg banquet will be the greatest event of the year this eventful year of the Y. M. C. A.
Govaner Stanley will act as toast master and among those who have already consented to respond to toasts are Dr. S W Williston. Hon. E L Ackley, Rev. W. G.Banker and Hon. Thomas Potter, president of the state board of agriculture.
The banquet is in honor of the new officers of the association and will be a "starter" for the new association year, which promises to be even more successful than the past year.
A large number of the alumni will be present and on the Sunday following the alumni members will have entire charge of the afternoon meeting. The presence of these alumni and of the distinguished guests of the association as well as the elaborate dinner and general good fellowship and enthusiasm will make this occasion one of the happiest times in a college course. The banquet will be given in library hall at 6:30 Saturday evening. April 7.
Ed Copley, manager of the Glee Club will have charge of the music.
The committee for arrangements have shown tact in selling tickets for the banquet instead of taking the money from the treasury of the association.
There is no direct appropriation in the budget for such affairs and the association is saved all possible criticism by letting those who want a banquet, pay for it. Tickets can be obtained from any of the "boys of the Y. M. C. A, house" and from Baumgartner, Myers, Gardner, Filkin and Funk.

K.U. VS. COLORADO
PRELIMINARY TO SELECT THREE ORATORS FOR THE KANSAS-COLORADO DEBATE HELD LAST WEEK.
ELEVEN CONTESTANTS TOOK PART.
It Was a Close Contest.-Davis, Hyatt. and Mowry, the Successful One
Ones.
The preliminaries to select orators for the Kansas-Colorado debate which will take place at Boulder, Colo., April 22, were held last week Friday. Only a small audience was present, not nearly as many as the merits of the speakers deserved. About half of those present were law students.
There were eleven contestants and it was a close contest. The three successful ones, were Gee L. L. Davis of Springhill, W. S. Hyatt of Labette county and C. Mowery of Wichita. Hyatt is an old speaker. He was one of those who 'showed' Missouri how to debate last year. He also won a close second in the university oratorical contest this year and carried off the honors last spring. He is perfectly at home on the stage and will be a worthy representative of the school.
Mowery is a new man, this being his first year in the University, but he will make a fine orator. He has a good voice and uses it well.
Davis is a member of the senior law class and is a diligent student. He is a leading member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and the WERLY is proud to include his name on its editorial staff. He is a deep thinker, as his oration indicates. He is easy in his delivery and his gestures are natural and effective. He is certain to figure conspicuously in oratorical contexts hereafter.
The question for this debate will be "Resolved, that the United States senators should be elected by popular vote." It is not yet known what side Kansas will take.
The judges Friday, were Messrs Innes, Weaver and Caldwell. Prof. Vickrey acted as chairman.
Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
The visit of Miss Radford, who is state secretary of the association, has been of great help to the work here. Miss Radford was here on Tuesday and Wednesday, and gave the young women helpful suggestions. She met with the members of the several committees, talked over with them their work and plans, and showed them what is being done in many other places. Miss Radford brings much enthusiasm and determination into the work, and her help is an inspiration to all Association girls.
Miss Radford led the meeting of the Y. W. C. A. Wednesday evening It was held in the chapel as usual, and there was a large attendance. About seventy girls heard her pleasant talk on "Sweetness and Confidence." Her text was chosen from Isaiah 30:15; "For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel. In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength." Miss Walton sang a very pretty solo.
The next meeting of the association will be during vacation, and as many of the girls will probably be away, the regular form of service will be done away with. There will be a song service only, conducted by the music committee, who have prepared special music for the occasion.
Miss Henderson's Bible class met Thursday afternoon in the Woman's league room at the Library. Their topic for study was Nicodemus' visit to Christ by night.
Miss Barth's Bible class has finished the study of the character of Ruth, and for the lesson Sunday will take up the ideal woman's character portrayed in the thirty-first chapter of Romans.
The girls on the Haskell committee work attended the meetings there Sunday last. They have a very prosperous association there now. A Junior association has been formed among the younger girls, which has about thirty-five members, and is taken in charge by Miss Richards, the primary teacher at Haskell, and Miss Dixon. Specials of the Philanthropic committee who have taken in charge the work at the Industrial school, report success in the sewing and cooking classes. The morning classes which the white children attend, are larger than the colored classes, and number from fifteen to twenty every week. The colored classes have about ten or twelve in each.
The girls of the Philanthropic commit.
The finance committee reports all the accounts even, with a small balance in favor of the Association. There have been many drains in the treasury this year but we are gland to know the money affaire stand so well.
PROGRAMME NOTICE
Lawrence April 6th-Announcement
A Chair of Journalism at Chicago Uni-
versity.
The great star triumvirate, Louis James, Kathryn Kidder, Charles Hanford, will be seen at Bowersock's theatre, in a mammoth production of Shakespeare's beautiful pastoral comedy, "The Winter's Tale." The Triumvirate is now accepted as the greatest legitimate organization since the days of Booth, Barrett and Modjeska and in their magnificent scenic revival of "The Winter's Tale" gives the patrons of the theatre a distinct novelty. "The Winter's Tale" has not been seen in this country since Mary Anderson's revival eleven years ago, in which play she appeared in the dual roles of "Aermione" and "Perdita," and in which she made her farewell appearances on the stage.
It is possible that within the present year at the University of Chicago a chair of journalism will be established. A committee has been appointed with Prof C E Miller as chairman, to look up the matter and report to the senior college faculty. The new department will not be in connection with the English department of the schools, such as at other universities where the chair of journalism is established, but will come under the head of the college of commerce and politics.
Not more than four courses will be offered, and will deal particularly with the history of the newspaper, the methods of news gathering, the Associated Press, printing and printing machinery, the newspaper in politics and subjects on a similar line, which will give the student an idea of the theory of newspapers.
A member of the committee said yesterday that the faculty of the school when established will not appear as attempting to make newspaper men, as the committee recognizes that such ends are only the result of the actual work of the reporter and editor.
The new department, he said, will not attempt to cover such things, but will give only such fundamental knowledge as may be gained by scientific and historical study, which are invaluable as a firm journalistic basis.
Reliable man for manager of branch office I wish to open in this vicinity. Good opening for an energetic sober man Kindly mention this paper when writing A. T. MORRIS.
