TIGERS LOSE 2 GAME SERIES 2-0 AND 6-4
Bishop Pitches Kansas T Victory In 18 Successive Innings
Innings
In two of the most exciting and best-played games played on McCook field this year, Kansas defeated Missouri Friday and Saturday 2 to 0 and 6 to 4.
Kansas from first to last was complete master in both games, which practically cinch the Missouri Valley Conference championship for the Jayhawkers, since with one victory over the Aggies and another victory over the Tigers at Columbia, Kansas should put the pennant on ice.
The feature of both gamas was the remarkable pitching of Bishop for the Jayhawkers, who hurled the eighteen consecutive innings for Kansas and never was in danger. In the two games he gave a total of eleven hits, or a little over five hits per game, struck out eleven

men, and gave but one base on balls. Besides his pitching he reached first four times in the course of the two games, made one hit, and scored one run.
The first game was the best of the two, a pitcher's battle between Bishop and Angerer, the big Missouri twirler, with Bishop having a shade the better of it. The two pitchers allowed the same number of hits, and Angerer fanned 11 men to Bishop's 3, but the Jayhawker pitcher had better control in the pinches and by far better support.
In the first with two outs, Tommy Hall, Missouri's backstop, took second on Busick's muff of his long fly, but died there. In the third, with none out, Brainard singled but stayed on first when none of his companions were able to lift the ball out of the infield. In the fourth, with two in the morgue, Woolsey reached first on Ward's error and stole second but Taylor fanned.
In the seventh and eighth innings Taylor and Brainard each singled, but were thrown out out stealing second. Missouri got her last hit in the ninth when Hornbeck opened the inning with a chop over short. Grey forced him at second, Hicks to Delonghey.
The Jayhawks scored two in the seventh. Wilson walked and reached third and Busick second when the Cap, swung a long double over Taylor's head. Keraus fanned but Ebnother walked packing the bases. With the bases full and one out, the Missouri infield played in, and Bishop slammed one through short that was too hot for Brainard to handle, scoring Wilson and Busick and winning the game.
The second game opened with Bishop again on the mound against Cy Helm for Mississippi. Helm blew up in the first and on three walks, an error by Hornback, his wild pick Kansas scored three runs. Three stolen bases by Sommers, DeLonzev, and Wilson aided.

Missouri came back in her half of the second, but fell two runs short. With one down Wolsey doubled into the right field stands. Taylor struck out, Brainard singled to center, scoring the Tiger's first run in 11 innings.
The Jayhawkers scored two tallies in the fifth on a walk to Ebnother, Bishop's short chop which got away from Palfresman, Sommer's double, and Hicks triple. Kansas scored her sixth and final run the next innning when Hicks put one behind Brainard for a single and crossed the plate on DeLongey's double to center.
The Tigers scored their last three runs in the seventh and for a moment threatened to send Bishop to the bench. Heilrich opened the fireworks with a triple over Busick's Taylor, Taylor got the only free transportation that Bishop gave in two days, and stole second.
Palfreyman tripled to left, scoring both runners ahead of him. Capp singled to center, scoring Palfreyman, but Hornbeck skipped to Wilson for the third out, and the game was safe. The score by innings:
Missouri. 010 000 300—4 | 1 | 4 |

"PINK EYE" IS INCREASING
Number Afflicted With Nell Rose
Onties Continues to Grow
The pink-eye plague still continues to collect its victims.
They are hard to locate, for naturally they won't advertise the fact, but reports of new cases continue to filter in.
It takes from three to fifteen days for the infection to become apparent. The eye becomes swollen and red, and waters freely. Its victim cannot study, of course. Sometimes the disease is sufficiently virulent to prevent attendance at school for ten days, but usually the period of its activities last a week or a little less.

WHAT THEY SAY to the CIRCULATION MAN
COMMENDS THE EXPOSITION Harry C. Allpin is associated in the practice of law with C. E. Brinein of Hutchinson, a former University man. "I am very much interested in the coming University Exposition," he says in a recent letter. "The people in this part of the Universie are waiting for it and we have a large number of former graduates, as well as those who have never been students at the University."
"Put my name down on your subscription list," he adds, "I might as well be out of existence as be without the school paper."
Prof. I. L. McKinley, principal of the Richmond high school, says his students greatly enjoy reading the high school notes in the Daily Kansan.
Elisie L. Smith, who graduated from the University last year, teaches history and German in the Sedgwick high school.
Ellis Davidson, who was editor of the Oread magazine last year, is reporting for the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. He insists that he would not be offended by seeing every issue of the Kansan, "instead of semi-occasional ones," and then he steals our thunder by saying that it will do no good to place the blame on the post office department because "Cub Baer wore out that gag a year ago."
Ernest R. Smith is assistant chemist with the McPike Drug Co., at Kansas City.
C. Farnsworth, principal of the provincial schools of Mindaro, P. I., writes for copies of the daily Kansas issued during the commencement exercises last year.
Miss Gertrude Mossler, who was an instructor in expression at the University last year subscribed for the Kansan during the second semester, at Marquette, Michigan. Miss Mossler writes that she and her sister, formerly Journal-World "S. R." enjoy the Kansan, "particularly the clever headlines," very much indeed.
Howard C. Morgan, who was a student in the College last year, is now part owner and associate editor of the Herington Sun. He was unable to enter the University last fall on account of sickness, but he expects to enroll again next year.
Fay E. Livengood, '00, writes from Harpot, Turkey: “Your announcement about the Kansan for the legislative session came to me two weeks ago. I can easily imagine that the entire school, as well as the school paper, has grown greatly since I graduated. I hope the legislature saw the needs of the University as they really are. Turkey has been having much trouble lately, you know more about it in America than we do here in the interior. We get most of our war news from American papers a month old.”
HE FEELS SENTIMENTAL
"When the Daily Kansan fails to come," writes Alston M. Curty of Denver, "It is like what I imagine the disappointment to be when a fellow who is in love fails to receive that little delicately perfumed epistle. The University of Kansas is my girl and the Kansan is the daily message from her. I have shown the paper to several eastern college men—from Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Chicago—and they are inclined to agree with me that it is the best paper of its kind in America."
FROM EX-GOV. E. W. HOCH
FROM EX-GOV. E. W. Kansan is a remarkably good paper and refreshes great credit upon its initiate makers and also upon the University which gives it up. It ought to be of great practical benefit to every student journalistically inclined. I was much pleased with the young reporter who came to interview our board." In compliance with the reporter's request, his name is withheld from the public.
Exhibit High Tension Insulator
Exhibit High Tension Insulator M. K. Thomen, a last year's Electrical graduate, has secured a sample of the latest design of high tension insulators for the exhibit during the coming Exposition. The insulation is the most approved type, being capable of standing a current of 66,000 volts. It will be on display in the gymnasium.

UMPTY EARTHQUAKES
PER DAY NOW
If the seismograph of the University of Kansas, in the basement of Fraser hall, is to believed, several dozen earthquakes occur daily. They are small, and of short duration, according to the record, but are of sufficient violence to make the record needle give quite a positive little jump in its course along the sheet.
But even wonderful scientific instruments sometimes go wrong. The needle's twitching is not the result of a quaking in the bosom of mother earth, just merely the vibration caused by the blasting over in the basement of the west wing of the Administration building. Every time there is an explosion the needle jerks, and teachers in the Ad building will testify that explosions occur with great frequency. The delicacy of the seismograph is well illustrated by the fact that a handful of dynamite exploded several hundred yards away may affect it so.

He would like the all-round development that is the end of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences; but he must, while acquiring this, be working towards some chosen vocation. The University of Kansas offers many opportunities to such students through business courses in the College and professional work in the associated Schools.
If he must begin at once his professional or business training, the University offers avenues of approach to practical life as varied as they are attractive. Some of the vocations for which special Schools or courses are maintained are:
