KANSAS LOSES BOTH
GAMES TO MISSOURI
NUMBER 157.
Tigers Win in First Contest
6 to 1 and Second
5 to 0
ENDS JAYHAWKER SEASON
Kansas Will Not Play Again Unless Arrangements Are Made to Compete With St. Marys
The Kansas Jayhawks dropped two baseball games to Missouri at Columbia Friday and Saturday. Neither game was closely contested and Kansas proved an easy victim for Taylor of Missouri. Even with losing these two games McCarty's men are the champions of the Valley without any team to contest them for the honors. Should the Kansas Aggies win two games from Missouri this week they might try to figure a way to claim the title but Kansas took the series from them two out of three.
Sproull and Fisher on Mound
Sproull and Fischer were the Missouri games were a reversal of the feat accomplished by Red Craig on NCAA against the Tiger's for the Missouri was used both games and allowed only one run in the two games. Sproull was on the mound for Kansas in the first game and allowed the Missouri's six hits while Fisher pitched the second game but neither could fill the place of Craig who is out for the rest of the season.
The Kansans were unable to bunch their hits so as to bring in the scores while in both games the Tigers got most of their hits in bunches. The jinx which has been knocking our men out has apparently got the best of their batting eyes for they have had an awful slump since the first part of the season. All the men who were able to take the trip were used in the games but they could not offset the attack of the Missourians.
Ends Season
This is the final game of the season for the Kansas men unless a game is arranged with St. Marys for this week. Kansas has played one game with this team already and a game may be schedued for McCook Field soon. The game with Warrensburg Normal was called off.

Newspaper and Magazine Writer to Address Students Wednesday
MRS. KELLEY WILL SPEAK
Florence Finch Kelley, a graduate of the University in the class of 1881, will speak to the students of the department of journalism Wednesday morning at 11:20 o'clock. The public is invited.
MRS. Kelley has been on the staff of the New York Times for several years, writing book reviews and special articles. Just now she is collecting material for a series of magazine articles which she has been asked to write, and incidentally renewing acquaintance with her Alma Mater.
A Writer of Novels
Besides hp newspaper and magazine work, Mrs. Kelley has done a number of novels, one of them, "Hoops of Steel," having been a best seller in New York when it first appeared. She is the only Kansas woman to have achieved this distinction, "Hoops of Steel" and "The Delaffel Affair" are stories of the Mexican border. Frances and Felix Brand, her first and her last novel, are both well known.
No Sour Owl Report Yet
The fate of the Sour Owl and its publishers is yet unsettled. The disciplinary committee of the faculty is considering the matter and will probably make a report tomorrow. Prof. Carl Becker, Prof. George Putnam, and Prof. J. N. Van der Vries compose the committee.

200 ATTEND BAND CONCERT
University Musicians Make First Open Appearance
More than 200 students, members of the faculty and people of Lawrence congregated on the campus near Spooner Library to hear the first open air concert by the University band Friday night.
The band started the first number on the program shortly after 7 o'clock. People soon began to arrive at the scene on foot and in cars, the student with his date, the city business man with his family and the faculty member alone or with his wife, women two or three together, until the steps and approach to Spooner Library were crowded.
Between numbers students talked about quiz week, the work for the summer, plans for next year, about the fellow with his date that was passing or the spirit of the University, and remedies that might bring more pop.
The concert ended with the Crimson and the Blue played by the band and sung by the audience.

A Protest
To the Editor of the Kansan;
It is a matter of deep regret to many of us that a sheet of the nature of the Sour Owl should appear from any, group of students at any time, and of especial regret that through its distribution at the May Fete it should seem to be given the sanction and patronage of the young women of the University.
The discourtesy of those responsible for its sale on the grounds can not be excused as an act of either thoughtlessness or ignorance, for permission to circulate the sheet at the May Fete had been definitely refused by the Fete management.

This is the last meet at home for the track squand but the men are to receive a hard work out the first part of the week before leaving for Columbia, Mo. to take part in the Miss America finals. (The Missouri school on Saturday.
K. U. men are gentlemen. They look with contempt on a publication which smears mud on a woman's name. They have no sympathy with the Sour Owl's attacks on the reputation of University women. There is room here for a satirical, outstoken publication, but not for an indecent one.
The result of the meet was not much of a surprise to the Kansans as the Agglies have a good reputation in the track sport this year and have as well balanced team as they have had for some time. The meet was decided by an interesting race but this proved be an interesting race with the Kansas winning.

Grady Sets New Record
Distribution of the proceeds will be made at the discretion of Con Hoffmann, secretary of the University Y. M., only those students receiving help who can not attend the conference on their own resources alone.
The track was heavy and muddy in some places from the recent rains which made record breaking difficult. This did not keep. Grady of Kansas from clipping abo. eighteen seconds from the former λ. Cook Field record for the two mile 1 n. This was one of the classiest events on the program and the final sprint between Grady and Teeter of Manhattan brought the crowd to its feet. Grady followed the Aggie runner for nine and a half laps but took the lead on the straightaway breasting the tape a yard ahead of Teeter in 9:55:1, a new record.
Was Last Meet at* Home
The meet was full of surprises but the surprises were divided between the two teams so that neither profiled by the upset of dope. Weaver, Aggie, started the Aggies hopes by defeating Herrirot in the mile run, the second event on the program. This was scheduled as one of the best events of the day but was an easy victory for the Aggie runner. A second surprise was Kirk Hilton's victory in the 220-yard dash. This Kansas had not been in good form for a while and his victory in this event will help fill the weakness of the Jayhawkers in the dashes.
Hilton Wins 220 Dash
Smith and Marble took both places in the discus for the Aggies while Reiber and Keeling won the shot put, Grutzmacher continues to win first place. The Aggies take a second place in the high jump against Frizzell, the Aggie star.
Aggies Take Discus
A protest was entered directly after the meet by Coach Hamilton which if allowed would reverse the score. According to Hamilton, Smith, winner of the discus, competed under the K. C. A. C. colors at Kansas City February 27 and by a Missouri Valley ruling would not be eligible to compete with a college team within one year of that time. The protest will probably be overruled as the Kansas City Athletic Club testifies that Smith drew his entry from the club runners after the programs were printed and entered as an Angie runner. The matter will be settled before long but Hamilton has given up hope of winning on the protest.
The date rule has been declared *df* for tomorrow evening to help the University Y. M. C. A. raise an Estes Park fund. All box office receipts above operating expenses at the Bow-sock will be given to the Y. M. The money will be used to help pay the expense of students attending the Rocky Mountain Conference at Estes Park, Colo., June 10 to 20.

"We want to be an organization to 'do' rather than one of 'don'ts,'" said Maureen McKernan, secretary of the Council, this morning, when asked what the policy of the Women would be for the coming year.
"The cooperative house will be established for the use of women who are working all or part of their way through the University," said Blanche Mullen, president of the Council. "We will work with the Big Sister committee in aiding the freshmen women who come in the fall to get located and to make them feel at home here. We expect have on one hand committed to two from the Council and two that are not members. We are doing this in order to make the work of the Council of wider interest.
"A number of parties for all the women of the University will be arranged so that they may get together and become acquainted. The mid-week date rule will be enforced," she continued.
"One of the things the Council will stand for is to get the women of the University to attend athletic events whether they have dates or not," said Miss McKernan. "We will try and have a section reserved for the women and we want them to make use of it.
"We will encourage a big women's pep meeting," continued Miss McKernan. "It is hoped that all the women of the University will get together in Fraser Hall once and support the athletics of the University at all times."

for Use at University
FACULTY. CAMPAIGN BEGINS
Profs Will be Canvassed for Contributions This Week—Papers Open for Students' Signatures
With more than $200 pledged to the $50,000 student loan fund by the **students** of the University alone members of the committee say they will open the campaign for contributions from the faculty this week.
"The pledges from the students of the University have been fine," said Registrar George O. Foster, of the committee, this morning. "It is more than we could possibly have expected, especially at this time of the year when the funds of the students are almost exhausted. It has certainly been a fine showing. It is an excellent example for the members of the faculty and the people of the state at large.
"We will probably begin the campaign for pledges from members of the faculty some time this week," continued Mr. Foster. "A card index is being kept of all the contributions that are made so we will know who has given and the amount Petitions will continue to be open for the students even after the campaign begins among the members of the faculty or after it is started out over the state at large."
The instructors who have not yet circulated petitions in their classes are asked to do so at once. The largest amount given to the fund so far was that of Ezra Palmer, of Denver, Colo., a graduate of the University in the class of 1894, who gave $100. Mr. Palmer's class was the one to start with an fund at the University by turning the receipts of its senior play into the fund. Mr. Palmer will ask other members of his class and other classes to help raise the $50,000 student loan fund here at the University.
