Kansas Beat Aggies In Second Ball Game Of Series By Shutout
Slawson Twirls Masterly and Re receives Airtight Support from Outfield and Inner Defense
Score 3 in First Inning
Otto of Aggies did not Settle Down to Work Until Fifth Inning
Supported by a fast infield and an airight outfield, Shawson slit out the Agretts in the second game of the home series by a 5 to 0 score. Several times the Manhattanites have outplayed them but in every case Shawton tightened and, with good support, kept the scorer busy with googles egg for the visitors.
The Kansas team started out early in their bid for the game. Keeler, heading the batting list gave the first ball pitched a long ride over center field for three bases, considerably jarring the Aggie pitcher's nerve. Bunn walked and Foster came on first, beating the one on an error, filling the bases. Lashley fanned, but Smith came through with a 2-bagger, scoring three.
But this was not enough for the Kansas sluggers, and the game was put on ice the next inning by Wettner's single, sacrifices by Slawson and Huskey. Fourth fourth the last run of the game was scored, when with two down and the bases loaded, Slawson stole home. He ran around Burton, the Aggie catcher, after four men had played catch on the base line for several
After the fourth inning Otto, Aggie hurrier, settled down and pitched good ball during the rest of the game. Kansas men got on bases several times with nobody but Otto and Nesby pitched the inning with no snops against them.
Harms went in for Bunn at first in the fifth and played his regular position well during the remaining four innings of the game.
McCollum, Aggie second-sacker,
came close to scoring in the second
when he slipped on the wet grass and
fell on the third base line. Lonborg
run him down before he could cross
the plate.
Oyster robbed Clarke, the heavy hitting Aggie who won the game Monday, of a good 3-bagger in the eighth by running thirty yards to the low fence back of center field and making a hard jump and stabb catch with one hand. Smith took a down the court while by a great catch in left, just behind shortstop, thereby keeping two men from crossing the plate.
In the ninth, Coach Clevenger made a desperate attempt to take the game, sending in Wettig and Swingle for Willis and Hixson; but the pin hitters could not pinch, the former getting only to second, and the latter fanning. Then Burton and Otto were on out flies, and the game was won.

The crowd of seventy-five who attended the game were a mighty puppy bunch until the game was cined in the fourth, but the rooting died down after that and several even left the grandstand.
Sport Beams
"Dutch" Wedell has shown himself a fine pimp this season and in most of the games there has been absolutely no crabbing about his decisions. Coach Clevenger maintained that Slawson was out when he van around Burton in the fourth, but when he went up and the 'score counted. He sent one over-zealous Aggie to the bench for disregarding with him on balls and strikes.
Guy Keeler, who led the batting list in the two Aggie games has shown himself in all-around man, hardy with the ball and is covering the field on all occasions.
"Dutch" Lonborg showed his old style of basketball basking in the third when Snapp singled with Cowell on second. Snapp started to second but Lonborg faking throws first to first and then to second kept him between the two at the same time keeping Cowell who was trying to steal home. A bad pug to third was all that made Cowell safe when he returned to his base.
Oyster's run-and-stab catch of Clarke's long fly to deep center was one of the prettiest bits of fielding of the season.
Otto pitched himself out of a hole in the fourth after Slawson had stolen home by fanning two with the bases filled.
Harms replaced Bunn at first when Bunn had to keep an engagement off the field.
If any downcast students desire to commit suicide one good way would be to walk under the north bleachers at the Missouri game next fall, judging from the wide cracks in the supporting beams.
Carl Rice, '18, left his home in Parsons, Kansas, Tuesday afternoon to participate in the Paris A. E. F. track meet. Rice is entered in the broad jump, in which he broke Valley records in 1916 and 1917. Rice has competed this spring in track for the Kansas City Athletic Club, and it is presumed that it was they who entered him in this big meet.
The A. E. F. track meet in Paris next month should be watched with the greatest interest by all sport followers, because in the absence of the Olympic games this year, this is the big track event of the world. Men of almost every nationality are entered. Bob Simpson is in training for the hurdles events in the East at the present.
iowa School Has Won One and Lost None in Valley Conference Series
Kansas To Battle Ames For Baseball Penuant
The K.U. baseball team leaves Thursday evening for Ames, Iowa, where it will play the last and deciding series of the spring baseball game.
Two games will be played, one on Friday and the other Saturday. From the good showing of Marxen and Slawson in the games so far, Bond will probably start with these men in the hurling position.
Ames has to only win one of these games to take off high honors in the Valley Conference. The Iowa school ranks 1,000 with one game won and none lost. The Kansas Aggie school follows with two games won and two lost, a percentage of .500. The Aggies' season is finished for this spring.
Kansas has played more games than any other in the Conference, five more than the making a percentage of .400. She must take both of the Ames games this week end to win the championship, otherwise the Ames team gets the

Captains of the women's baseball teams have been elected and the series of class games will probably be played off next week. Marie Brown was elected captain of the senior team, Nina Stauffer, of the sophomore team and Alice McGuffey of the freshman team. The juniors will elect their captain later.
Coach Bond will take fifteen men with him to Ames Thursday night.
