K. U. BASEBALL TEAM CHAMPS OF VALLEY
Frank's Men Return From Road Trip With Pennant Tucked Away
2 FAST GAMES WITH TIGERS
Warrenburg Sprang Surprise and
at Missouri Went 11 Innings
The Jayhawker baseball team returned home yesterday afternoon from its four-game trip with the Missouri Valley championship tucked securely away. By taking the first game of the two-game series with Missouri 2 to 1 the Jayhawkers secured the Conference title.
Coach Frank's men beat the Baptists at William Jewell, beat the Missouri Tigers one game, lost to the Boston Cormals, and an other to the Tigers.
The Warrensburg game was as a complete surprise. Even the Warrensburg papers said: "It was not until the fourth innning when Caldwell found Hobbs for a home run to right field, followed immediately by a three base hit by Hyatt, that the Normals found they were in the game." The final score was 6 to 5. The first game at Missouri was the closest and most exciting time the Jayhawkers have contested yet this year. The Kansans got their first errors in the first innning, the only Jayhawk tallies of the game, directly due to three errors by the Tiger infeld.
Missouri made her only score in the sixth, when Gray, centerfielder, reached first on an infield error, took second when Bishop overthrew first in trying to catch him napping, reached bird on a passed ball, and when Tommy Hall, the Missouri watcher, singled sharply to center.
The Tiger rooters went mad in each of the remaining innings, the Missouri band playing Dickle, while the bomber literally prayed for a score.
The Jayhawkers lost the last game at Columbia in twelve innings 3 to 2. Buzick pitched for Kansas and twirled a good game.
The Jayhawkers play the last game of the season Wednesday, tangling with the St. Marys Catholics at St. Marys.
HODGES FAVORS K. C.
Governor Will Help Get Tiger Game Back To Old Grounds
According to the Topeka Capital, Governor Hodges favors taking the Missouri-Kansas football game and will fall, and will aid in getting it there.
Nothing further had developed today, according to Coach Mosse. The Kansas City alumni are work and probably will be heard from soon.
No Students in Germany
J. W. DeMand M. D. '12, and M. H. DeMand M. D. '12, house physicians during the past year at St. Francis hospital in Wichita, Kansas expect to go to Germany this summer to continue their medical studies. Wm. E. Simon and Arthur E. Hale, who are graduating in medicine this year from Kansas University, have been appointed to the positions they are vacating.
Opinion at Missouri seems to be split.
The K. U. Debating society will hold a business meeting Tuesday evening May 27 at its regular room in Fraser. All members wishing to obtain fifty cents deposit should be present at this meeting, the last one this term.
Allen Wilber has been awarded a scholarship by the department of Political Science of the University of Illinois. He will take up his work there next fall.
Two Students to Germany
The long chapel of the week will be held Thursday when Professor Carruth gives his farewell address.
The University Daily Kansan realizing that the high school seniors of 1913 will be the Kansan editors and managers of the next four years takes this opportunity to say, "We're glad you're on the way."
To The High School Grads Of 1913
If by any chance you can't come to K. U. we hope you will find the next best place and keep close on the heels of Old Education until you overtake her. We are giving her a good race here on Mt. Oread, but the next lap in the big relay must be run and won by you. Here's hoping you may "get off well at the start" next fall.
LOOKS AS IF K. U.
FRATS MUST PAY TAXES
Douglass County Officials Are Going Ahead With Assessment
From all indications at present it looks as if the fraternities will be compelled to pay taxes on their property this year. Regardless of the present statute which exempts from taxation all such organizations, the Douglas county commissioners are emphatic in their stand that the property is subject to taxation.
The state tax commission in its opinion to the county commissioners of this county believes the fraternities may be taxed on the theory that the property in nearly all cases is owned by the alumni associations and not by the active chapters. The commissioners have taken the stand that the fraternities are not covered by state tax, and the opinion of state commission, are proceeding with the assessment of the property.
The fraternities will naturally fight but the outcome is doubtful. It is a question for the courts to decide whether or not the present statute exempts the property.
K. U. STUDENTS GRAFT THEIR WAY THROUGH

Work And College Agree Average Expenses About
Ben Bear, of Topeka, spent the week-end with friends in Lawrence.
$250
According to Registrar Foster, over half of the students at Kansas University make part, and sometimes, all of their way through by doing outside work along with school work.
Now that high school seniors are thinking of going off to college next fall, the question of how much it costs to come to K. U., for instance, and whether or not a student can walk through K. U., comes up at once.
The case of Guy Tucker vs. The Mo. and Kansas Telephone company scheduled in the senior practice court of the School of Law for this afternoon was postponed and will be held Thursday afternoon.
The "grafas" include washing dishes at boarding clubs, waiting tables at clubs and restaurants, running laundry routes, mowing lawns, tending furnaces, typewriting, care of houses, milking work on the athletics field, and cleaning the University, doing library work, making uscript assistance to instructors, delivering papers, laboratory work, pantidorium work and so on.
The average cost to a student in the University for one year runs about $250. Board costs $3 to $4 week, room $4 and up per month.
Probably the best aid to students wishing to do outside work is the University Y. M. C. A., which maintains a University Employment bureau. During the past year it offered courses for hundred students, and has calls for student help every week. This aid is given free.
In the summer students canvases for books, magazines, and sell aluminum ware. Several students have taken courses way through school by summer work.
"PAT" OUT, BUT WILL PROBABLY SEE
Kansas Track Captain, Injured In Eye By Walnut,
Is Improving
While he may be out of track for the rest of the year, "Pat" Patterson, captain of the K. U. track team, who was hit in the eye Saturday by a batted walnut, will probably be able to see with his injured eye, partially if not entirely.
"Pat" was taken at once to Kanaa City and is now in the hospital there.
Saturday, while "fooling around" with a walnut and a tennis racket, a companion drove the walnut into "Pat's" eye.
EASIER TO ENTER K.
U. UNDER NEW RULES
Language Requirements Cut May Even Enter Without Such Credits
It will be a much simpler matter to become a student in the University of Kansas next year than it has been before, as a result of changes made in the requirements for entrance.
Heterofore it has been necessary for a candidate to show three units credit in one language, either Latin or German, to gain entrance to the College. Next year 2 units of any language will serve, supplemented by a unit in one other. Spanish has been appended to the list which include Latin, French, German, and Greek. It is possible to become a freshman without offering any language at all. In such case, one is subjected to certain regulations regarding his first year's work.
The fifteen units credit, which must be shown, are made easier from the fact that three units may now be offered from the vocational group, where only one could be offered before.
In the engineering school the language requirement has been reduced to two years and the optional courses have been made to cover a wider range. The requirement of a year in drawing has been abolished.

When questioned about her work
in school, faculty关怀 a girl
student replied:
"I receive my room and board on work done here and I am considered one of the family, which means I have many advantages. My duties consist of preparing the morning and evening meals, doing the kitchen work three times a day, and assisting with the Saturday cleaning. My duties are very much like those of an elder daughter would be."
The officers of the University and different organizations among the students afford many lucrative positions to girls as stenographers, assistant instructors, librarians and teachers, and pay from twenty-five to fifty cents per hour. Professional typewriting is in special demand.
Some of the individual enterprises carried on by girls are dress-making, mending, magazine soliciting, and candy making. One clever girl has realized a handsome profit on pieces of Irish crochet made in her spare moments. Besides this she shares, "I do all of my own sewing."
When questioned as to whether there was any lack of courtesy shown to them on the part of other they were working their way through school there was not a single answer in the affirmative.
The K. U. girl who works to get through is above all things admired and respected.

LOSES HAND WHEN DYNAMITE EXPLODES
'Dan" Dablene, Contractor, Dangerously Injured By Premature Blast
WORKING ON ADM. BUILDING
When a short stick of dynamite vent off prematurely in his hand, Scar "Dan" Dahleh, a Lawrence contractor living at 615 Indiana street, lost his left hand and was internally shortly after noon today in the assement excavation on the new Administration building.
Father of K. U. Students Mangled When "Spreading" Discharge Goes off Unexpectedly
The physicians at Dr. John C. Rudolph's hospital finished dressing Mr. Dahlene's wounds at three o'clock this afternoon. The left hand was amputated above the wrist and the other cuts and bruises were bandaged. At that time he was doing nicely, although the extent of the internal injuries could not be ascertained.
While the workmen were eating dinner the contractor and two other men were "spreading" drill holes in the bottom of the excavation. Mr. Dahale, according to reports, lit a short piece of dynamite and either was about to drop it into the drill hole, or else decided not to drop it and tried to sniff out the burning fuse when the dynamite went off.
His left hand was completely torn off at the wrist, both legs were injured, and severe abdominal injuries sustained.
The explosive which went off was only a part of a stick of dynamite used to loosen the dirt in the excavation and to "spread" the drill hole. Three men were on the ground at the time lighting and dropping the short pieces of explosive into the holes which are about 18 inches to 2 feet deep. As a rule the blasts are so light that had he been three feet from the hole he would have escaped injury.
Following emergency treatment he was taken to the Rudolph hospital where the injured hand was held. The result of the injury after the first effects of the injury.
Mr. Dahlene is the father of "Box" Dahlene, a former K.U. football star, Ed. Dahlene, a special in the College, and Genevieve Dahlene, a sophomore in the College.
