KANSAS LOSES FIRST CONFERENCE GAME
Jayhawkers Defeated by Aggies, 4 to 1 -> Sommers Unable to Play
Captain Bishop had on bad inning at Manhattan yesterday and the Kansans lost their first conference game to the Aggies 4 to 1. Bishop aviated in the third when he walked a man, allowed three hits and a teammate made an error for four Agie scores. Kansas rallied in the fifth with Bishop and scored DeLongon. Bishop Kansas defeat can be partly attributed to the absence of Herb Sommers who is sick with the mumps and unable to accompany the team. Wandel worked behind the platter and Captain Bishop probably missed his regular backstop and weakened. The Farmers harvested only eight hits but they scored enough runs in the third to seep up the Bailey pitched good ball biking out nine Jayhawkers. Bishop fanned

COMPLETE SENIOR MEMORIAL THIS WEEK
Seat Will Be Finished Soon Located Between Fowler and Snow
RICE TO SUPERINTEND WORK
Will See that Construction is Carried Out Properly—Twenty Dollors to Be Collected Yet.
The senior memorial seat presented to the University by the class of '14 will be completed by the end of next week. It is to be located between Fowler Shops and Snow Hall instead of between Fraser and Sheridan. This will give the best view of the Wakarua valley to be had from Mt. Oread.
Prof. H. A. Rice, of the School of Engineering, will go over the design of the bench to see that it conforms to all standards of artistic beauty and structural permanence. Work on the actual construction of the memorial will be commenced the first of the week.
The memorial committee has chosen to speak of the bench as an assured fact because they have faith that the class will come through with the necessary funds and they still feel that way, but there is about $20.00 yet to be raised and work will not be begun until the money is on hand to pay for the job. Consequently it behoves every senior who has not paid his fiftieth birthday today or tomorrow or else to be personally responsible for standing in the way of starting the memorial tradition at K. U. this year.
Those who are collecting memorial fund dues are, in the School of Engineering, Dingman, Dodd, and Fairchild; in the School of Law, Buckles or Holloway; and in the College, Sam Fairchild, George March, Bald, Ridgergge, James Eldor, Duston, Ashley Wilson, Leila Nevin, Helen Allston, Emily Berly, Vivian Strahm, Edna Bigelow, and Margaret Roberts.
