KANSAS READY FOR CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES
First Game at Lincoln Mon day—Nine Men Are Eligible
Kansas is in good shape for the championship series with Nebraska a
When the Jayhawkers returned from their annual trip the men did not break training, but did just enough work to keep in condition. Only Weaver, the big center, is at all out of practice, but Coach Hamilton expects him to be in form by Monday.
The Jayhawkers will leave for Lincoln Sunday morning and will have a good rest all day Monday. They will return to Lawrence Tuesday morning.
The game here will start at seven o'clock sharp Tuesday night, because of the engineers' banquet that evening. All seats will cost 50 cents; there will be no extra charge for reserved seats.
Nine men are eligible for the championship games: Captain Greenlees, Sproul, Hite, Weaver, Boehm, Beamer, W. F. Brown and Smith. The officials for the series have not been definitely decided upon.
Nebraska "Not so Bad."
"The only team of any class that Nebraska has played this year is Minnesota, and Coach Frank says Minnesota was not much this year," is the comment of Coach Hamilton on the strength of the Cornhusker five.
The coach further added that besides playing teams of the second order such as Drake and Nebraska Wesleyan, Nebraska had not run up any big scores even on these.
"Our boys may lose the first game, owing to the fact that it is on Nebraska's court, but believe me, when we get those Cornuskers at Manhattan and Robinson gym we'll give them the trimming of their lives," predicted Hamilton.

Last Night
BAND CONCERT A HIT

The number from "Oberon" displayed the ability of the band to render this class of music in a pleasing manner.
CHAPEL A ONE-HOUR HODGE PODGE TODAY
A Little of Everything Ended Up With a Vociferous "Rock Chalk"
Chapel this morning was a lengthy affair, lasting until eleven o'clock, but nobody minded except Herr Kellermann, who beat a haasty retreat from his faculty pew on the platform just before the last encore of the Girls' Glee club. It might be described as a Methodist-Co-d Chapel, since those two elements predominated.
Dr. W. S. Bovard, of New York City, who is here to lecture before the学术 conference, was the first speaker on "Some Ways of Life," he said:
"The program that appeals to the manhood of America is a broad program. We look upon the man who works with a microscope and the man who plow as much of a representative of the Lord of Life as the evangelist.
"We are in the midst of a great famine—a famine for genuine, stalwart, trained manhood. One of the best investments that can be made is in Americans in the makings. I guess we need to learn捷地 see its opportunity and give you each year the price of one or two battleships.
Miss Madeline Nachtman, assisted by the Girls' Glee club next sang Chancey Olcott's song, "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" and responded with an encore about "a man and a girl which was very non-sensical in speech, admitted," but it took so well that it was hard to quiet the applause.
Reverend Wolfe, pastor of the First Methodist church next made a plea to the five hundred Methodist students in school and all other students to attend a K. U. rally at the Methodist church this afternoon.
After this the G. G. C. sang "Oh, Dry Those Tears" and two other songs.
The program was concluded with the singing of the "Crimson and the Blue" and "Rock Chalk."

SENATE WILL PASS
K. U. BILL TODAY
To Consider Appropriation for University at Afternoon Session
NO REDUCTIONS EXPECTEI
Upper House Approves Ways and Means Committee Report on Funds for Agricultural College
BULLETIN
Special to the Kansan .
Topeka, 2:41, p. m.-Without discussion, the senate just passed the K. U. appropriation bill exactly as it came from the committee. Provision for continuing the extension department was made by the committee before presenting the bill by inserting the words "and extension" after the appropriations for maintenance.
Special to the Daily Kansan.
Topeka, Mar. 7. The senate will consider the University of Kansas appropriation bill this afternoon. It is believed that the report of the committee will be adopted without any further cut by the upper house.
This forecast is strengthened by the fact that the senate this morning approved the Agricultural College and that it will be out of the hands of the committee.
With the K. U. bill disposed of in the senate today, it will be taken up in the house Monday. Chairman Herr of the house ways and means committee issued the announcement this morning that the house would dispose of the question of K. U. funds on Monday.
The senate will also pass on the state Normal bill today.
QUIZZES KILL THE "LITTLE CAFETERIA"
Little Equipment, Small Profit, and Faculty, Stop W. S. G. A. Lunches
After next week the "little cafeteria" which has been maintained by the council of the W. S. G. A. will be forced to close despite the fact customers come and sandwiches go; not quizzes go on forever, it seems.
In the short time the cafeteria lunches have been served the scheme has rapidly gained popularity among both students and faculty; but lack of equipment, small profit, and no concessions to the girls in the matter of quizzes will necessitate its abandonment by the council.
However the council has not despaired of its financial condition. It will have control of the down all night, for one night sometime in the day and not yet been named but it will probably be on a "week-night."
Mechanicals Talking Exposition
At a special meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers last night the society held a general discussion of plans for the coming Exposition and appointed a committee to plan some of the exhibits to be put on by the Mechanical engineers. A special meeting will be held next week to decide definitely on exhibits.
