With this issue of the Kansan the present editor severs his editorial connection with the paper. A year ago he took charge of the Kansan and if he were assured that all future journalistic ventures would be as pleasant as this one has been he would have much happiness in store. The Kansan during the past year has received better support from the students and townspeople than any college paper for years back. If it in any way merited this support it is because of the faithful and diligent work of the Kansan board and the excellent printing done by the Graduate Magazine plant. The people on the advertising and news side of the Kansan have worked earnestly, even at the neglect of their studies, to make it a representative college paper. How well they have succeeded is for you to judge.
R. L. Douglas the new editor of the Kansan is a sophomore in the college. He has had considerable newspaper experience on country weeklies and dailies His level headedness and excellent good judgment marked him for the next editor from the day he was first elected to the board. He was the unanimous choice of the board and will receive the same cordial support that the former editor has received.
The new managing editor has not been selected as the faculty committee has not made its recommendation, but it will be done at the next meeting of the board. ___
The Juniors, in giving way for the high school events on the day originally set for the Prom., displayed the spirit that every department of the institution should feel for each other. They deserve full credit for their action. Simple as it is, this harmonizing of interests, it has not always been the rule in the University even in quite recent times.
STUDENTS, COME OUT.
Support Basket Ball, Base Ball and Track Same as Football.
The student body of the University is at all times interested in the success of the athletic teams of the institution. This interest to be most effective should take the form of financial support. The student patronage of foot-ball during the last season was good. Basket ball, base ball, and track athletics deserve the same sort of loyal backing and need it even more than foot ball. Without money athletic enterprises cannot be carried on. The Athletic Association is at the beginning of a season of sports that never yield any large financial returns but are expensive if conducted in a way consistent with the dignity and standing of the University.
Students and professors should attend the basket ball games that remain on the schedule and give generous encouragement to the base ball and track teams. The basket ball game with Washburn College in the gymnasium this evening would be a mighty good time to contribute a quarter and some enthusiasm to the support of University athletics.

Sophs Win Championship.
The sophomores defeated the seniors in the fifth game of the basket ball tournament Monday afternoon, by a score of 48 to 21. The result of the game "cinches"the claim of the sophomores to the class championship of the school, since they have not been defeated as yet.
The game was rough from start to finish and the '08 men took the lead at the beginning. At the end of the first half the score was 25 to 0, but the seniors made things more lively during the second half and made a total of 21 points. Bliss and Pooler did the best playing for the fourth year men, while Angney and Bond made over two thirds of the baskets for the sophs. The champion team is composed of the following men: Angney and Justice, forwards; "Red" Burt, center; Bond and Roberts, guards.
