THE BEST FEATURES
Of the Meet Were The Tumbling, Jumping and the Snap-Under Over String The SingleStick and the Fencing Were Interesting-Wrestling Was Good, but Was Not Particularly Scientific
Saturday evening the K. U. Athletic association held its annual indoor meet at the Bowersock Opera House. A fair crowd attended and sat patiently throughout the entire program, which was necessarily long, owing to the fact that the stage is small and only one event could be given at a time. The events for the most part were good and showed considerable preparation. There was some rather brilliant work and a number of the men showed extraordinary skill.
The band was present and played its new pieces. The managers conducted the meet on strictly up-to-date principles, raising the curtain at the conventional hour of 8:30. Prof. Sterling acted as spokesman announcing the purpose of the meet and then calling the first event.
The snap-under over string event was a good starter and pleased the spectators. Beaman, Rench, Sawtell, Emory and Royal were the entries. Emory was a favorite a few moments, but Rench and Sawtell braced up and out did him. The contest narrowed to Rench and Sawtell when Rench, a Senior Art, won out. Height of pole four feet, height of string, five feet and one inch,
The fence vault by Emley, Baker and Beaman was close. Baker dropped out at five feet ten inches, narrowing the contest to Beaman and Emley. Beaman showed wonderful strength, but Emley had his own peculiar vault, which was easy and graceful and which gave him the record of 6 ft 4 in. Beaman being only an inch or two below him.
The middle weight wrestling by W. S. Sutton and Rankin was close, three bouts being necessary to decide it. Rankin won the first fall in four and one half minutes. The second bout went to Sutton on defensive work. In the third bout Sutton won the fall and the event in five minutes. Edson and Heinicke both Sophomore engineers, entered for lightweight
Edson and Heinicke, both Sophome engineers, entered for lightweight wrestling. They were evidently afraid of one another, as neither showed up.
Feather-weights Swazey and E. Kelley, were so evenly matched that four bouts were necessary to the choice of the winner. The first bout resulted in no fall, the second went to Kelley, the third to Swazey and in the rub bout Swazey won, consuming the entire six minutes of time.
The standing broad jump was won by Rench over Duer and Moulton. The record for this event would probably have been raised but, the men jumped from the floor onto two mats. Rench made 10-2 against Petticord's record of $10.4\frac{3}{4}$.
Heavy weights: Whitney and Hess did not contest.
Van Pettin. Dillon and Dennis entered for high kick. The apparatus was poor and the men did not do themselves justice. Van Pette lead with $7.4\frac{1}{2}$. Dillon was a close second.
During the hitch kick all the spectators joined in and had a good time. Beaman kicked the apparatus down the first time. Everything was soon patched up and Rench won out, his highest kick being 8 feet. The University record is 8-11% held by Sanderson.
The only record broken was that of the standing high jump. Rench won from Johnson making 4-10, thus raising the University record. Both men jumped well. Johnson will make a fine record next year.
Moulton, Duer and Alexander entered for the running high jump. Alexander won, making 5-1 against his record of 5-7.
and Tangeman from Ronnebaum. In the final Tangeman won from Ruth.
For the single stick event, Emley and Beaman qualified and Hess and Von Unworth, "Uncle Jimmy" Merys decided that Beaman and Von Unworth should contest for first honors, Beaman was given first "Uncle Jimmy" then wished to give the winner some points in an exhibition contest. Everybody cheered and yelled for "Uncle Jimmy" who knows more about fencing and single stick than anybody on the hill and who executes well for one of his age.
The spectators were all thoroughly aroused when the tumbling began. The men who participated were Emory, Beaman, Lindsay, Johnson, Higginson, Worley, Jones, and Sawtell. Beaman is perhaps the best specimen of manhood on the hill. He showed up well in this exhibition. Emory was also a favorite. The men all did their work well. It was the best thing given and deserves special mention. The "collapse" and the "pyramid" were heartily received by the spectators. "Tumbling sheep" and the "bear walk" which closed the exhibition were also much appreciated.
Von Unworth, Ruth, Tangeman and
Ronnebaum entered for fencing. In the
primaries Von Unworth won from Ruth
It was a very good meet, much better than was deserved from t the support given by the University. There were only a half a dozen members of the faculty present and the student attendance was much smaller than it should have been.
The size of the stage would not permit the 'potato race' and the curtain went down announcing that the meet was over.
The officials of the meet were F. R. Moulton, captain and E. W. Kelley, manager. Dr. Naismith, Prof. A. H. Clark. S. C. Emley and James Merys.
Debaters Cheesen for the Kansas-Nebraska Debate.
FINAL PRELIMINARY.
The Kansas-Nebraska debate will occur May 7th at Lawrence. The contest to determine the Kansas representatives was held last night at Frazer hall. A fair sized audience was present and thoroughly enjoyed the program. The law school was present in a body and enlivened the time with their class yell. The debates were interspersed with piano music, and Mr. Gilbert gave a solo which was very much appreciated.
On the whole the debates were excellently given and showed hard work and clear thinking. There were eleven in the contest and space forbids us to mention each one individually.
The judges decided that Messrs Thomas, Brady and Franklin Baker, and Oscar Lane were the successful ones. Mr. Brady was given first place. Messrs Brady and Lane had very strong arguments while Mr. Baker was rather more distinguished by his delivery.
Two of the debaters are from the Law school, Mr. Baker alone representing the Arts. They are speakers who will do the University credit and we only wish them success which we feel sure they will gain.
KANSAS SHOWED THEM.
The second annual debate between Kansas and Missouri was held Friday evening at Columbia, Mo.
In a Hard Fought Contest the Kansans
Yaroubid the Missourians.
Messrs. Decker, Brady and, Hyatt represented Kansas, and by their forceful, logical arguments and their eloquence defeated the Missourians.
The question for debate was whether the United States should adopt the British colonial system. Kansas had the negative and notwithstanding the fact that all the judges were from Missouri, Kansas was victorious.
An Expansion Atlas.
Rand, McNally & Co., of Chicago, have just issued a publication that should be of special interest to every reader in this State. It is the "Expansion Atlas," and as the title indicates, treats of the subject and countries now in the mind of every American. The atlas is made up of thirteen maps covering every part of the globe, and especially good maps of our new interests. One of the most valuable maps is that of Manila harbor and vicinity. This is on a very large scale and shows most of the small towns spoken of in the news from the Philippines. This publication should be of special interest to the newspaper readers of this state, owing to the great prominence our volunteers have taken in the recent battles around Manila. The price is 50 cents, at which rate it will be sent post paid to any address. Postage stamps acceptable.
BASKET BALL IN MISSOURI
THE VARSITY LOSES AT INDEPENDENCE BUT WINS FROM WILLIAM JEWELL,
The Missourians Played Good Ball and Showed Our Boys a Royal Good Time
The University basket ball team went on its first extended trip Thursday, playing three games with Independence on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, and one with William Jewell College, Monday afternoon.
They went to Independence Thursday and after taking in the town, played the first game of the series Thursday night at the armory. The Kansans played good ball but were unable to stay with their opponents and especially their center, Anderson whose good throwing was of a phenomenal character.
From one particular spot on the side lines he was almost sure of a goal. The University team was seriously handicapped by the smallness of the floor which did not allow their customary style of play.
The score was as follows:

Referee, Mr. Stockton, of William Jewell college; umpires, Mr. Bannett of Kansas City, and Mr. Heff, of Independence.
Walter Sutton turned his ankle about five minutes before the end of play and was replaced by Hoyt.
The second game on Friday was also lost by a score af 22 to 10. It was a close game and the score does not indicate the brilliant playing of the Varsity team, which, under ordinary conditions would have won the game. Emley's eye was badly hurt in the first half, but he played on until the end of the half and his retirement then naturally weakened our team.
The feature of this game was the work of Barnhart, one of the Independence backs, who threw three remarkable goals. For such a close game the absence of fouls was remarkable.
The score:
Goals from field. Goals from foul. Fouls.

On Saturday Emley and W. S. Sutton were both laid up, and the game Saturday night was simply an exhibition game with a picked game including Dennis and Stockton of William Jewell.
The score stood 18 to 13.
After the game Mr. Emley, on behalf of the Kansas University team, presented to Captain Dick, of Independence, the silk banner, carrying with it the championship of Kansas and Missouri.

The game which had been arranged with William Jewell College was played on Monday afternoon in their gymnasium and was attended by a fair crowd. The floorl space of their gymnasium is 30x70, and is much more like the field to which our men had been accustomed.

Score of William Jewell-Kansas University name:
The William Jewell boys play a good game, but not like Independence. They play an open game with many long passes. They treated the boys right, and they speak with words of praise of their reception there, as at Independence.

Dentistry at K. S. U.
At the meeting of the state board of dentistry last week, Dr. F. H. Hatfield of Marysville, the chairman of the board strongly advocated the establishment of a school of dentistry at Kansas University where he says it properly belongs. He is enthusiastically in favor of this plan, and does not lose an opportunity to advocate it among his professional brethren.
The examinations are now held at Kansas City as there is no college in Kansas where clinics and facilities may be had for practical demonstration such as is necessary.
