Kansas Trims Normals
9 To 0 In Return Game
On McCook Yesterday
Slawson Has Record of Twenty two Innings of Scoreless Ball
K. U. Hits Veteran Pitcher
Normals Are Unable to Connect With Slow Teasers of Slawson
The Emporia State Normals were unable to connect with the slow teesers served by Slawson Thursday while the Kansas nine were getting to Rehm, the Emporia veteran, for ten solid smacks and nine runs. Slawson held the Normals scoreless, making twenty-two consecutive innings of scoreless ball pitched by the K. U. finger. The Normals threatened to score in the third inning when they made three hits, but lost their chance over poor base running.
The Jayhawkers took the jump and made three runs in the first inning on hits by Cherry and Oyster and two Normal errors. In the second inning Kansas came back for another run. Two runs were added in the fourth inning when Slawson was safe on an error, Cherry tripped left center, scoring in Slawson and coming home to a passed ball. Isenberg and Keeler singled in the eighth, Isenberger scoring on Bunn's double. Slawson singled, scoring Keeler and Bunn ending the scoring for Kansas.
All of the Kansas men were hitting except Foster. Foster played a good game at short handling all of his chances without a bobble. Cherry and Slawson each garnered a pair of safeties. The Hargarrine nine was new

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 3, 1918.
Troussesau and going-away-gowns aren't in it with the confusion and commotion, not to mention energetic activity, of the entire Senior class, men suffragettes and all. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of the coming week orders will be taken for Senior caps and gowns at Fraser check stand. Charges will be $25 per each. The money may be paid in advance. The dress will be worn three days, for class day, baccalaureate sermon and commencement.

Receptacles Are Ready And Ten Motors In Line For Salvage Scavenging
Saturday Drive Sweeps City. Ninth to Seventh, and Miss, to Mass.
Ten drivers of as many cars are preparing boxes to contain all the salvage which they are expecting to gather. Heaps of junk have been collected this week for the University salvage drive.
Ten K. U., women have serviceable calico aprons ready for service. Sat urday morning promptly at 10 o'clock the drive starts. Collection from Ninth to Seventh and from Mississippi to Massachusetts streets, will be mad at that time and all people out of the territory may have their salvage collected by calling Number 99.
Miss Margaret Lymn, who was in Kansas City Wednesday says the students would be surprised to see what the salvage department there is doing.
"The University cannot accomplish any such striking total, obviously." But what that a converted foe will bring in unexpected results for the Red Cross.
The salvage department of the Kansas City Red Cross room is a perpetual rummage sale, according to Miss Lynn. The women there handle the disagreeable heap with the same cheerfulness that the committee here at K. U., has sorted the contributions.
The War Here and Over There
Local fighting, which lasts but a few hours at a time, continues to be the only activity on the western front since the German drive of the early part of the week. Lines are straightened out and frequent raids are made on the enemy's positions.
A party of 113 ill and wounded soldiers returned to the United States last week from the French front. Fifty of them took part in the Third Liberty Loan celebration in New York.
The Red Cross has received a gift of $50,000 from Jeremiah Milbank for the purpose of founding in New York a school for disabled and crippled soldiers and sailors.
Owners of tractors, which are not kept busy through the spring plowing season, are urged by the Department of Agriculture to grant the use of these outfits to neighbors who may be short of labor.
The United States Quartermaster recently purchased 75 million yards of mosquito bar.
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, formerly Miss Alice Roosevelt is said to have sold the sapphire bracelet the Kaiser sent her for a wedding present and donated the proceeds to the Red Cross.
An Italian airplane, driven by a lieutenant in the Italian army with one passenger recently made a record for height reached of 23,048 feet.
Secretary Daniels cites this record of one detachment of destroyers for a six-month, period to show what the United States Navy has been doing. Total miles steamed in war areas, 1,000,000; submarines attacked, 81; single-vessels escorted, 717; convoyes escorted, 86; total number of days at sea, 3,600 days.
President Wilson has subscribed altogether $28,000 to the three Liberty Loan Bonds.

448 Page Book To Be Out Of Bindery In Ten Days
Thirty Pages Live Kodaks
"Hilliad" Take-Off On Mome Features Life of Modern Greeks
Betty Moore, of Kansas City, is spending the week-end with her grandmother, Mrs. Emma Fagin, at the Delta Tau house.
Harry Morgan, editor of the 1918 "Jayhawk"," left last night for Jefferson City, Mo., where the annual is being printed, to read proof on the closing sections of the book and to inspect the publication before it goes to the bindery. The work of printing the book will be completed this week; and it will be out of the bindery within ten days. The "Jayhawk" is scheduled to appear on the campus Wednesday, May 15.
"FRANK STRONG,
"Chancellor."
Wesleyan is the fact that this year's senior class is only half as large as was the Class of 1917, the 1918 Jayhawker is as big a book as was last year's. It contains 432 pages of reading matter, with division and sub-title pages bringing the total up to 448 pages. With the senior section only half as large as last year's, there is consequently much more space for historical and feature matter.
The military note is of course dominant throughout the book; and all of the art work is military in tone. There is a large military section, with pictures of former K. U. men now in the service, pictures of the University drill companies and the Women's Red Cross and Surgical Dressings class and an article on the University's work in the war. On interesting picture shows the volunteers from the Spanish-American War.
Other historical articles are on "The Passing of North College" and "A History of the Jayhawker." The North College article, which was written by Miss Helen Rhoa Hoopes of the department of English, is illustrated with pictures of the building in the old days, and as it appears today while being torn down. The article on the history of the "Jayhawker" is illustrated with reproductions of all past cover designs.
The military and historical sections are all in addition to the usual features of the usual annual. The classes, organizations, and activities sections are large; and representative of the doings on the Hill this year. The humor section features thirty pages of sensational snap-shots, and a “verse libre” take-off on Homer’s Illustra called “The Hillaid.” Needless to say, this poem concerns the modern Greeks who inhabit Mount Oread.
Ban Put on Serving of Unnecessary Luncheons
Attention of students to the resolution of the Douglas County Defense Council, discouraging the serving of refreshments at social gatherings at other than regular meal times, is called by a statement issued this morning by Chancellor Strong. In a communication to the University Daily Kansan, the Chancellor says:
Chancellor Calls Attention of Students to Resolution of Defense Council
"The local Council of Defense for Douglas County some time ago passed a resolution, that it is unpatriotic and out of harmony with the work of the food administration to serve refreshments at any gathering except where they take the place of a regular meal. This matter has been recently taken up with the state food administrator and he has endorsed it. The churches, fraternal organizations, social and literary clubs, and others have been asked to co-operate.
"The food administrator for Douglas County today called my attention to the matter. There is every reason why all the organizations of the University should co-operate and adhere to the policy thus laid down. I trust that we shall be patriotic enough to follow the directions of the food administration in every respect.
Kansas City To Honor Dr. Fitzsimmons M' 12
Kansas City will honor Dr. William T. Fitzsimons, c'10 and m'12, who was killed when the Germans bombarded the hospital last September. Dr. Fitzsimons was adjutant to the colonel commanding the Harvard University hospital in France and was the first American officer to die in France.
It was decided Wednesday by the park commissioners to erect a memorial in the form of a public drinking fountain. It will be about twelve feet high and five feet wide. The facts of Dr. Fitzsimmons death will be carved in the stone. It has been planned to have the memorial erected by the Fourth of July.
Prof. Vernon Kellogg.
To Give Phi Beta Kappa
Address Here May 13
Aumnus and Former Instructor In University of Kansas to Return for Talk
Prof. Vernon Kellogg of Leland Stanford University, an alumnus and former instructor of the University of Kansas, will deliver the Phi Beta Kappa address on Friday, May 13, at 8 o'clock. Professor Kellogg was invited several weeks ago to deliver this address, but, owing to his numerous duties in connection with the Food Administration, it was only recently that he was able to promise to be here.
In 1915 Mr. Kellogg, left Leland Stanford University and went to Belgium to assist Herbert Hoover in the relief work in that devastated country. He remained in Belgium for several months and at one time had entire charge of the distribution of supplies in all Belgium. Later he returned to the United States, but as soon as Mr. Hoover was appointed Food Administrator he again asked for Professor Kellogg's assistance and since then Mr. Kellogg has been in Washington. The lecture will be open to the public.

Student Ciceros Flay Faculty And Rid Souls of Grievances
Burney Miller, Warren Neumann, R. L. Hamilton, Harry Mosier, Carl Newman And Pwee Kansan Join in Annual Bombardment of All Existing Evils
All Join In Punishing Swings At Poor Old Senate Today
Lower Floor of Fraser Chapel Was Not Jammed With Eager Professors In Search Of All Possible Light On Student Opinion
Jammed in aisles, standing between seats, hung almost by coattails over alchemy rails, said to be clinging by teeth to window sills, and assured trail-out beyond open doors to the hearing limits, more than a thousand under-graduate acclaimers of personal outrage and common rightie indignation made the chapel three inches more capacious all around this afternoon at our o'clock.
MILITARY NOTE!
They listened to the annual outpouring of anothered suffering from the five component parts of the oppressed represented by Burney Miller for Collegians, R. L. Hamilton for Laws, Carl Newman for Medics, Warren Neumann for Engineers, and Harry Mosier for Pharmics. They agreed not to love one another or anyone else except themselves until time for supper, and succeeded in full intent.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk opened up sharp on the appointed hour and sounded the hoarse and shrill, male and otherwise, alarm. Faculty left Fraser Hall and scattered. Burney Miller was received with an ovation as he mounted the rostrum. He promptly let loose.
AWFUL!
When accused of hazing by Dean Patterson, the laws asked if it was considered hazing to put a night gown on a boy.
Company B missed the services of about thirty-two men last night in the competitive drills in Robinson Gymnasium. They were at a dinner-dance, some students say.
A student was reading the Kansas to his room-mate last night.
"The most characteristic thing about my school," said Burney Miller, speaker of the College, "is variety. Why we have every kind and type of an individual imaginable. In the Law and Engineering Schools now it's different. They are the same type exactly. The Laws for instance, are all triflers, skilled in the art of shooting craps and shooting coins at the cracks in the sidewalk; while the Engineers are uncount, crude individuals who delight in luring the beautiful girls of the University into their hair in search of votes."
"Well, well," he mused. "Forcing Frush to Wear Night Shirts on Campus—"
“What,” they led the roomie, a freshman. “Well, I’ll have to buy one.” “—Must Stop, Says Patterson, continued the first student.
SIAMS SOPORIFIC SENATE
One freshman woman was talking to another. She said, "I have been around to a lot of these sororities and I have decided that I would rather join the Phi Beta Kappa's."
Since the exciting contest Tuesday, many University students have devised a good way to devil their friends who were the winning candidates. They congratulate them excessively for being elected to office [or which there was no competition].
Small wonder we have "graft" with us in University life. We learn it young. Here is the story of an embryo grafter:
A ward school boy's teacher sent him to the principal with a note which read, "Please punish this boy." The carrier of the note met a smaller boy in the hall who could not read. The Wicked One offered the Innocent One a dime to take the note into the principal's office.
As he stood outside and heard the cruel blows falling upon the lamb he had fleeced, he spat with deadly aim at a crack twenty feet away and said, "Hit! money will do anything."
A Good Business Man
A Los Angeles business man who sent too much Income Tax told the collector what to do with it in the following letter:
There is a region in Fraser Hall which may well be called "No Man's Land." When a well-meaning professor who was trying to get the department of economics over the phone was given the department of home economics instead, and asked for Professor Catell, a strident female voice replied, "There are never any men here!"
"Let the surplus be appropriated toward creating a fund for the purpose of supplying a floral design for the Kaiser's funeral, made principally of poison ivy and bull thistle, with the inscription, 'To H—with the Kaiser by the Shortest Route.'
Send the Daily Kansan home.
In regard to grievances Miller said, "We have grievances too numerous to mention. The principal ones though are the actions of our esteemed Senate. That Senate is simply a combination of a high school debating society, an Irish wake, and an old ladies sewing circle. They haven't done a thing that really amounts to anything. In fact it would have been better for them to undone, for example the Freshman Cap and the Compulsory Military Drill Ordinances. Both are useless—merely topics upon which the members can show their eloquence and lastly their authority."
Miller said that the reason the college didn't have the organization or perhaps the gift of graft that the Laws do the Laws' ability to start a rally and get by with it is because they have so much leisure time to discuss and plan such things.
PAUSE TO PRAISE UNCLE JIMMY
Hamilton of the School of
law made.
The men of the Law School have been called slackers, but the loyalty of them and their guide and patron, Uncle Jimmy Green, can not be questioned. Men from this school are to be found in training camps from California to Georgia, and on the fields of France."
"At the beginning of this semester the law students asked they be allowed to carry extra work, in order to work in the farm fields of Kansas earlier in the summer. The law faculty would give them the laws will go out to the farms May 9, while the other schools are still in session."
"The senate should not bluff the students or refuse to back down on their assertions simply because of false pride. They are a public organ, and should consult the plain duty they owe to the students of the University of Kansas, and not make them fall back on the courts to enforce their legal rights, in the case of physical training."
"I feel that the Kansan has made some insinuating and slightly remarks about the laws, which may be due to the fact that they are ignorant on all
Prof. Dykstra's Roof Considerably Lowered
The roof of Prof. C. A. Dykstra's barn-garage was lowered Thursday afternoon into its new position which is exactly twenty-seven inches directly under its old position. The roof was lowered because it was too high, although an agricultural neighbor of Mr. Dykstra expressed deep regret that Mr. Dykstra was cutting down his mow space by lowering the roof. With the cutting down of its mow space the barn-garage also cuts out its hyphen and dual purpose and now becomes a garage. Subsequent reports on the remodeling of the barn-garage will appear in The Daily Kansan Monday.
