K. U. JOCKEY CLUB.
HOLDS ITS FIFTH ANNUAL MEET
THE AFFAIR WAS OF ABOUT THE AVERAGE MERIT AND NO FAST TIME WAS MADE.
Seemed To Be The Most Thrilling and Exciting of the Events
THE FACULTY MULE RACE.
The annual meet of the Jockey club, held last Tuesday equalled or excelled any of the former events of its kind. As a fun making institution the Jockey Club has certainly proved a success.
The parade started from the Eldridge House about 2:30, and included a number of fine turnouts, though perhaps not so many as in former years.
The events of the track were by no means record breakers, but that is not expected from an affair of this kind.
Milo Morgan in clown costume attracted the attention of the spectators, while Perl Decker sold popular songs. Dr. Judy Allen was not much in evidence after the arrival at the track, but his dutch band was, and contested with the Phi Delt "josh" for the toughest appearance.
Donnelly's big tally-ho was occupied by the Pi Phi girls and presented a swell appearance.
Despite the rain of Thursday the track was in good condition, but the high wind interfered materially with the racing.
The first race was the quarter mile bicycle race, entered by Tobey, Avery and Rodgers. Tobey came in first in forty-seven seconds, with Avery second.
The wheelbarrow race was entered by Buttomer, Carroll, Cates and Phillips. On the first trial Carroll won, but they were called back because the starter's pistol failed to work, and the second time Buttomer won first. Carroll second. Time 5½.
The next race was probably the most interesting and exciting of the day. It was the faculty mule race. The starters were "Eph Adams," ridden by Leverett Adams, "H. Tossy Jones," ridden by John Harrison, and a member of the faculty whose name we were unable to obtain, jacked by Hoite Cates. H Tossy started out in the lead, but was gradually overtaken by Eph. Adams. H. Tossy grew balky on the stretch and by reason of this unfortunate circumstance, "Eph. Adams" won the cup, time $3\cdot 33\frac{1}{2}$. Despite the heroic efforts of Jockey Cates, the unknown refused to depart from a slow trot, except for one brief moment.
In the half mile bicycle races the only entries were Tobey and Avery. Tobey won easily in 1:34 4-5.
In the first horse race, the eighth-mile running dash, "Hungry Joe," riden by Saum, won without much trouble over Perkins' "Little John," time, 15:45. The race was not close enough to excite any interest, in this respect resembling most of the other events of the day.
For the 2:20 quarter mile trot Perkins and Williams contested. It was a good race; the horses possessed in a slight degree, running qualities and their riders brought out what speed was in them. William's horse. "Kentucky Girl," was quite a favorite, but was beaten by Perkins "Don't Shoot."
The long throw was entered by Lucas, Moore and Sample. In three trials Moore made the best throw, 95 yards.
Following this was the K. U. derby, half mile. Entries were "Real Lonesome," owned by Sam; "Cold Water," owned by Williams; and Perkin's "High Ball." This was the best race, the half mile being run in 1:15 1-5 by "Cold Water." "Real Lonesome was a close second.
In the contest for the best turnout, Mis8 Barker was the only one entering in the ladies class and received first prize. Ted Pochler's was decided to be the best gentleman's turnout.
Miss Simmons was decided the best lady driver for her handling of Donnelly's four white horses on the tally-ho. Miss Gould was given second and Miss Becker third.
In the sack race Phillips won over Buttom-
er, Carroll and Cates.
The Phi Delts were given both prizes for their "josh" turnout.

Mr. Von Dahlen's solos were interspersed with organ selections by Mr. Penny; they were the "Adagio Contabile" by Haydn and Gavotte by Handel.

MISSOURI SHOWED US
THE VARSITY WENT DOWN BEFORE THE TIGERS IN A MIGHTY CONFLICT—MISSOURI TOOK A BIG LEAD AND RETAINED IT UNTIL THE FIFTH WHEN K. U. BEGAN THE FIREWORKS.
The Features of the Game Were Lucas Work at Third, Hall's in the Box, Barnett in the Field and Housh at Second, Moore Caught an Errorless Game- Our Men All Played Well-Hawkins Was the Star of the Missouri Team
Saturday was an ideal day for the Kansas-Missouri contest. The threatening clouds were dispelled about noon and a full warm sun shone out at 2 o'clock insuring a favorable day.
The band occupied a prominent place and discoursed its new music while the teams were working out. By 3:10 the bleachers and grand stand were well filled with an enthusiastic crowd anxious for the game to begin. The Betas, Phi Delts and Sigma Chis occupied boxes near the bleachers. They were gaily decorated in K. U. and fraternity colors. A number of carriage occupied places outside the ropes.
Promptly at 3:15 the game was called. The tigers crouched in their corner. Tucker was in the box for K. U. Dewey popped up to Lucas, Willard sent a hot liner to Housh who fielded it perfectly. Hawkins cut third base with a hot grounder for a home run, the first part of the game, Gawin went out on a short hit to Tucker, retiring the Tiger with one score.
Parent went to first; Poorman sacrificed, advancing Parent to third. Hush failed to hit. Moore went out on first and the University took the field without a run.
In the second inning Atchison came first to bat. He hit asshump grounder to Lucas and went out at first, Bartee came up and sent a hot liner of the worst kind directly over third, but Lucas was right there and froze on to it. Feltz fanned and retired the side.
Barnett came up first for K U. and went out on a short hit to the pitcher. Lucas hit a long fly to the left, but a Tiger was under it. Carroll put a beauty in the center garden for two bags. Griggs made a shert bit to the infield-and went out at first, with no scores for this inning.
At the beginning of the third, Cooper failed to make first. Curturght made first in a black ball. Dewey hit safe to right field. Wilcox followed with a safe to left field. Hawkins takes the stick when bases are full and gets a two bagger scoring three men. Gavin bats to Poorman and goes out. Achison retires Missouri.
Tucker takes the ball and goes to first on Bartee's error. Parent flies out at center. Tucker makes third. Poorman was caught a second. Housh went out at first on a short hit. K. U. still has an onion.
Bartee comes up first in the fourth for a single. Feltz makes a fine hit for two sacks scoring Bartee. Cooper sends a foul fly to Lucas who is right under it as usual. Curtwright-makes first on a bunt and Dewey walks. Wilcox drives a hot grounder to the center. He takes two bags and scores two men. Hawkins hits to Lucas and goes out at first, Garvin repeats the performance with a short hit to Poorman and Missouri again takes the field.
Moore first make a short hit and goes out. Barnett follows suit with a hit to Hawkins. Lucas makes a magnificent bit to right field which lands right on top of the fence but unfortunately bounded in and he only gets one base. He makes a good steal to second and Carrol walks. Griggs makes first on Hawkins' error and scores Lucas. Tucker hits to Hawkins and goes out at first.
Parent drives to left field and gets first on an error. Poorman sacrifices advancing Parent to third. Housh gets a long hit to center flying out. Parent scores, Moore drives hard to center but the ball wrestles smugly in the center's glove.
In the fifth Tucker retires, Hall take the slab, Atchison walked. Bartee hits to Housh who handles the ball perfectly making a pretty double. Feltz popped up to Carroll at First.
When Missouri came up in the seventh, Atchison went out on a foul catch by
Moore. Bartee and Feltz returned in quick succession on hits to Housh and Lucas.
K, U. took a little brace this time. Poorman led out with a hot grounder to center, and made second on errors. Housh makes three sacks on a hit to center and brings in Poorman. Moore sacrificed to score Housh. Barnett and Lucas hit to Hawkins and failed to reach first.
Cooper fans in short order. Curtright gets a safe to right field and Dewey goes out on a bunt.
Kansas came to bat in the eight inning with K. U. 6, M. U. 9 and Kansas beginning to ginger. Carroll made a safe hit and Griggs sacrificed. Hall went out on a bunt and Parent flew out to Atchison, with the score as yet unchanged. The sixth was uneventful for the Tigers. Cooper over out; Curtright gets a safe over short. Dewey could not find the horse hide. Wilcox takes second. Hawkens and Garver go out.
Barnett fails to get a safe. Carroll gets a safe. Lucas bats to first for a base. Griggs drives to right. Hall gets a safe. Griggs secured a fumble. Lucas scores. Parent goes out at first

M. U.
In the ninth, Garvin Atchison and Cooper all hit for a good drive to center. Mr. Barnett took care to handle them nicely.
The Jayahwakers come in for the lost bat with three scores to make in order to tie the Tigers. The fire works started. Poorman, Lucas, Barnett, Carroll and Housh played good ball. Two men crossed the plate but Carroll's popup ended the struggle in favor of the Tigers. Score by innings:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 0 0 1 1 2 2 0 2-8

Track Preliminaries.
The preliminaries to select the track team which is to go to Nebraska were held on McCook field this morning. The time was generally slow although some good sprinting was done.
The first event was the 100 yard dash. First place was conceded to Moulton and Smith, Sawtell, and Higginson contested for second place Smith won in a close race. Diesem and Gavin were the only starters in the mile run, Gaven won in 5:47.
In the 220 yard dash the start was close between Moulton, Smith and Higginson but on the finish Moulton struck a pace which was impossible for his competitors to equal. Moulton also won the 440 yard dash over Smith, Higginson, Holiday and Sawell. Smith finished second in this and the 220 yard dash.
The hurdles were not run and the pole vault between Sawtell and Holiday was not finished.
