Freshman Frolic, May 23 Not Exclusive Class Party
A report that the Freshman Frolic May 23 would be an exclusive freshman party was denied today by Paul Smith, manager of the frolic.
"At senate prices," said Smith, "the Freshman couldn't be exclusive if they wanted to, which they don't. The first class couldn't put on a first class party, solo, without bankrupting 99.9 per cent of the class. We'd a lot rather save the money for this month's board bill, obey the Senate's dance measure and put on a party that's not on the Hill utterly ing. Not only economics and Senate law enter into our motives. We've got a lot of freshman pride and patriotism at stake in this party. Come und see."

Ames Bunches Hits In Latter Innings Defeating K. U. 6-1
First Six Frames are Tight Ball,
With Single Score
for Each Team
Wet Field Slows Runners
Plagge Fans Dozen Jayhawkers and Has Full Support of His Team
By bunching the hits and taking advantage of the Kansas errors, the Ames Agries won a game from the Kansas team team Tuesday afternoon on McCook Field. Five of the Ames runs in nings, when the Ames batting list got a couple of two-baggers off Shawson and paraded around the diamond, bringing in three tallies. Bond pallus Slawson out and put in Marxen, but the Ames team in its stride, and the Ames two scores before Marxen and oulte retire the side.
The game was tightly played until the facial seventh, Foster coming in on Lashley's single in the second frame, and Ames tying the score in the fifth, when Levon slammed a two-bagger and came in on Shello'ts hit.
About one hundred fifty loyal K.U. rooters watched the game, and rooted with all their might. The diamond was slightly soggy from the recent rain, but it still looked good around the bases, only three bases being pilled during the game.
Slawson pitched a good game up on the seventh inning, retiring five men from the plate. Marxen fanned five men in the last two innings. Marxen hit one more man in the nine innings, and had the support all the way through.
