Beta Banquet to-night The Pui Psis entertain their lady friends this evening, They say Atheneum program eclipsed that of Orophilian. A Senior class of an even half hundred. How is that? LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JUNE 6, 1889. A great number of old students are here to commence. Each of the Literary societies presented a very creditable program last week. The new animals on exhibition in Snow Hall, attract a great deal of attention. Riggs still keeps the infants from entering the University during the exercises. The Senior Law class was tendered a dinner and reception in Snow Hall by the Law Alumni. The Classical Museum is in charge of H. White. Everything is arranged in a manner to show off well. Tuesday court adjourned in order that the Lawrence bar could attend the exercises of the Law class. The Junior response to the Senior Pharmacy pill speech, rather made the Seniors squirm towards the end. Hundreds of people were unable to find standing room in the chapel the evening of the Baccalaureate sermon. The Field Day sports are over, and considering the condition of the ground some splendid records were made. No weather could have been nicer than that which prevailed during the greater part of our commencement exercises. The ball game Saturday morning was between the University and the city club. The city club was badly beaten, as usual. The Art Exhibit at the south end of the second floor is as fine an exhibition or original work as was ever seen in this city. The styles in programs this year are exceedingly varied and all are not suited. We think it would be hard to suit some people. The Hall was crowded as usual last Sunday night to hear the regular commencement sermon. Many people were at the University as early as six o'clock. As the Barb Tug of War team was organized and the Fraternity team was not, the Barbs rightfully claim the championship, and are ready at any time to back that claim. Verily the Junior walketh in the paths of the Senior even though he deoth little foolish and ridiculous things—Senior, Caywood—Junior, Brewster. Observation may be taken any night between seven and eleven. Owing to an accident Rev. McPherson could not make connections with the proper train and hence could not deliver the address before the literary societies, Tuesday. It was a great disappointment to many. One member of the Senior Law class has shown such a spirit in regard to the payment of necessary commencement expenses that the rest of the boys consider him a disgrace to the class and to the Department. It is surprising to note the number of professors who have either already or will soon leave for the mountains, the coast, or the eastern home. May their rest be refreshing—they have accomplished a great and grand work—the class of 89 has a passport to the world. Pharmacists have met and banqueted, and it was decided that a druggist should just as pleasantly sell a postage stamp and a penny sponge as he does a $5.00 plush toilet set left over from last Christmas. That's our motto. Raymond and Dick. Come and welcome be. Field Day On Saturday morning the Field Day exercises began by a game of base ball. A game had been arranged with the Haskell nine. The game was not very interesting because the clubs were so unevenly matched. The score was 5 to 22 in favor of the University club. A series of tennis games were played in the park in which Armstrong and Sherman won doubles. A tennis match in singles was played on Monday to determine who should be awarded second, R. R. Whitman being conceded first. The finals consisted in a contest between F. E. Reed and Herb Armstrong, which resulted in favor of Reed; the score being 6-4, 6-4 in Reed's favor; and 6-2 in Armstrong's favor. Saturday afternoon a large audience collected on the ball ground to witness the afternoon program. Each contest was attended with much interest. The following is the result : 1.

Anheuser Busch Wiseman The University boys can furnish their own police force. Southwestern Tennis Tournament. The tournament of the Southwestern Tennis Association, which took place last Thursday and Friday at Excelsior Springs, was the most successful yet held; between three and four hundred people witnessing the games, which were exciting and closely contested throughout. The doubles were won by James H, and John S. Cravens, of Kansas City, who defeated J. H. Fanisle and E.C. Smith, of St. Joseph, the winner last year, by the following score: 6; 3. 5, 5; 5; 4; 6; 6; 2; 3. The singles were won by James Cravens, defeating J. H. Fanisle in two straight sets of 6,1; 6,2. There were ten entries in the open tournament, which was won by D. P. Mann, of Kansas City, beating N. A. Hardee, of St. Joseph, in three straight sets of 6, 4; 6; 4; 6, 1.
