HESTER AT HARVARD.
HESTER AT HARVARD.
He Writes Entertainingly of His Surroundings There.
He savs in part:
Tom Hester has arrived at Harvard and writes entertaining of his new surroundings to one of the WEEKLY staff.
"The most disagreeable thing that I have heard is the assertion that one stood no show on the football field without social position and being on the inside. The Kansas men think this but I shall not believe it until I see it for myself. If I do not see it it shall wash my hands of football and study law. They say the law school makes a fellow grind fearfully and that it will be very difficult for me to get an M. A. on the side." The Harvard M. A. degree requires two years of very stiff work above the University of Kansas Bachelor's degree.
- * * "Well this famous Boston is a great place and strange to say it comes up to my expectations. The street urchins calling papers are polite and use correct language. Baked beans is the standard dish at every street corner restaurant and and the first women I saw wore blue stockings, short hair and spectacles and were headed for the library with a very severe mien.
- "But they will substitute beef-steak at the restaurants and there are many pretty girls in Cambridge."
- * * The first street car took me past old South church and I have been today to the old Cambridge Unitarian church, the first parish in Cambridge. Best of all, down town I came upon Faneuil hall from the back and knew it at a glance, by introspection I guess. I saw Bunker Hill Monument in the distance but haven't been to see it yet, and haven't seen Boston Commons.
"I reached Boston at 11:20 a.m. I began looking around and hunting Jim Patten. Found him finally in Cambridge hospital where he has just had an operation for appendicitis. He sent me to Chas. E. Griffin, of Lawrence and next morning Brooks of Kansas City (brother to Walter Brooks of 97), helped me to hunt a room.

Washburn and K. U. Could Not Agree on the Terms of the Carnival Football Game.
GAME DECLARED OFF.
The game for next Wednesday with Washburn has been declared off. The original agreement had been that the varsity should have sixty per cent of the receipts, but Washburn endowed to secure better terms. Manager Reed refured to accept anything but the original agreement so the game was declared off.
Yesterday Coach Woodruff consented to take half of the receipts but Washburn had already arranged a game with the Haskell Indians

saw.
"I am sorry that the game could no have come off as scheduled, but we could not afford to lose money in order to play K. U. If Mr. Reed would have consented to compromise we would gladly have played. but Mr. Woodruff's proposition came too late. I hope we can arrange a game later in the season."
The opening concert with the new organ will take place the last week of October. Over 500 tickets have already been sold for the two concerts and an effort to dispose of 500 more is being made as $1,000 will be required when the organ is in place. There will probably be a rush for tickets a short time before the opening concert as it will be one of the best entertainments of the season. It will be purely a home talent affair.
Again the Law school will sport a paper. The Kansas Lawyer, during the past, has experienced many ups and downs but at last it has adopted a practical and satisfactory plan. Instead of depending on advertisement and subscription, shares will be issued until the amount in the treasury will be sufficient to guarantee the ensuing year's publications. The first issue will appear in October.
The K. U lecture course committee is composed of Profs, Olin, Dunlap and Barber. The committee is making arrangements for a number of popular speakers and expects to put the tickets on sale about the middle of October.
Prof. Walker, the new professor of Latin, reports one hundred and fifteen registrations in the department of Latin. This is double the number enrolled in the same department last year.
Prof Penny has lately received word that the pipe organ is completed and will be here on October 6th. It will take nearly two weeks to put it up in the chapel.
Prof. Farrell will make his debut this fall with an Italian opera in Florence. He will resume his work in K. U. after January 1, '08.
Mr. O M Irelan state secretary of the oratorical association, was here Thursday looking after oratorical interests.
You don't have to ask the Topeka students where they are from. All of them wear fall festival buttons.

Nearly all the students in the school of fine arts this year are graduates of accredited high schools.
The new pipe organ will soon be a permanent fixture in the Kansas University chapel.

WAS THERE AN ELECTION?
There Sesma To Be a Conflict of Opinion in the Lack Department.
There was an exciting time in the senior law class Friday, the occasion being an election of officers. Reporters were excluded and information is lacking for an unbiased account. Two communications have been handed to the WEEKLY, however evidently treating the affair from opposite standpoints. The first account is entitled:
On Friday of this week a meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers of the Senior law class of 98. On the hour set for the meeting when all were assembled except a few on whom the others were waiting before selecting the temporary chairman, Miss Hessie M. Reid, the female orator and idol of the class walked into the room and called the class to order, and giving no reason for doing so proceeded with the business. Motions were made to adjourn, amendments were also made, but notwithstanding all this they proceeded to the business of the hour. Nominees were placed in the field and ballotteu pon. No one receiving a majority the president announced another ballot, edelaring that only the three receiving the highest number of votes would be voted upon and all other votes cast would not be counted as they would be illegal and void. Appeal was made and the affirmative put and decision rendered without ever putting the negative. Thus all through the election she (Miss Reid) exhibited the strictest authority not parliamentary ever seen in this school or in any civilized country, even in the walls of congress or of parliament.
Finally the class desiring to honor her, regardless of her tyrany and oppression, through Mr. Morgan nominated her for football manager. This she declared out of order, but notwithstanding this she received an overwhelming majority of votes. The time being at hand to close, and she thinking she had won the laurels and doubtless the heart of many a young student of Blackstone, the meeting stood adjourned.
Notice of contest has been duly filed and the case will be tried some time next week.

ANOTHER VIEW.
The Senior Law Class Election was held in the west reading room at 10:30 a.m. Friday. In the absence of last year's president and vice president Miss Reid the secretary presided. When Mr. Layton, acting secretary mentioned the object of the meeting, viz, the election of officers the "new men" set up a bowl for postpon-

ment, but members were not in their favor and on motion nominations were made.
Layton, our orator, was elected, secretary, Stewart, the popular "new man" will act as treasurer and has the wish of the acting president "that the burdens will not be too heavy."
The first nomination for president was made by Mr. Lloyd who in eloquent language discussed the fine character and standing of his chosen one - Mr. Sherman. Other names - Kriztinger, Dunn, Olston and Layton were mentioned but Mr. Sherman receiving a majority of votes was elected on second ballot. On account of the repeated howls, growls, and grunts from Morgan, French and others, the chair made some very decisive though just rulings.

Tennis Tournament.
On account of the languishing condition of things no tennis tournament was attempted last year.
Great interest was aroused among the tennis players of the University by a tennis tournament held during the latter part of the week on the Adams street courts. The last tournament held in Lawrence was in October, 1895. The games were held on the Adams and Rhode Island street courts and resulted in a victory for the Stanley boys—Claude and Will—in doubles, and of Will Stanley in the singles.
There were more entries in the tournament just held at that any previous one Ed. Carroll who took second in the state tournament at Emporia and Web Wilder who retains the championship of northeast Kansas, were entered, also Stanley who won in 1805.
The games were well patronized and attracted some attention and it is probable that tennis will again become one of the most popular of our lighter athletic sports.
