KANSAS WINS GAME FROM TIGERS 6 TO 5
Harrell Brings in One Score in Ninth Changing 5-5 Tie to a Victory
CRAIG STRUCK OUT ELEVEN
Jayhawkers Were in Lead Until Last Inning When K. U. Made Three Errors
Announcement was made this morning that Walter Wood would not be able to play in this afternoon's game on account of a strained muscle received by a quick pug, even though it is not serious and Woody will probably not miss any other games because of it.
With the score tied in the ninth inning, one man on base and one out, George Harrell, pinch hitter, drove the pill to the sheds for three bases and won the first game from Mississippi 6 to 5. He took the first half of the final round and the count was three and two on Harrel when he stepped into the blew that won the game for the Jayhawkers and incidentally some distinction for himself among his fellow students. The team had no more exciting game that seemed doomed to go into the extra rounds.
The game was the most interesting that has been seen on McCook this year and the crowd of five hundred who gathered for the affair was treated to some thrillers at all stages of the game. Red haired boy proceeded his coat, headed for the fourth instances kept the Missourians from hitting when hits would have meant runs. Both sides pulled off a number of errors and it was this form of play that almost proved fatal to the Jayhawkers after two were down in the MiSaurt's corner as they were stopped of the jungle were stopped though when they had tied the score. Craie struck out eleven men.
Kansas did its scoring in the early part of the game. Wood started the fireworks by hitting the first base. He drove to first and his Drive was to the left field fence for three bases and he scored a moment later when DeLongy singled to right. Wandel got to first on an attempt by Stoneuil's single to the right garden.
In the third round prospects did not look any too rosy for McCarty's men for the Kansans allowed the bases to become loaded and himself out of the hole in great shape by striking out the next batter. The second one sent a line drive to left that went straight into Weibler's hands and the third man sent his fly out to the pitcher. In the fifth inning but Craig did his own work this time by striking out two men when the bases were full. When this same incident came up in the sixth Missouri sent in Baumgarter as a pinch hitter and he lived up to getting a single that brought in a run.
The same teams are playing on McCook Field this afternoon. Lefty will play for the team for McCarty's men and as hard a game as yesterday is looked for. The game begins at three o'clock and will be over in time for the May Pete.
The game seemed to be over and the spectators began to leave in the ninth when Kansas took the first two Missourians up but this is when the jinx stepped in. Missouri then got two singles and on the next round the Tigers started that netted the Tigers three runs which tied the score at five all.

Rodkey to Run for Kansas
The Sour Owl is out.
Since it was printed in the University printing office, it must be all right. The editors say that they have tried to make the paper clean and perhaps it does show some improvement over past issues.
Some Hoot—That Owl
But it still sounds like the same old Owl. It is sugared a little, that's all. Several criticisms of the University and student activities including the Daily Kansan are well made. They need to be made and the Sour Owl is to be commended for making them. However it ought not be licensed to peddle dirty stuff around under the guise of cleverness. If such gossip has to be told, do it out behind the barn.
And incidentally the University faculty ought to protect women who are sent to school under it instead of allowing their reputations to be slashed by a piece of peanut journalism.

According to Babylonian Tablet Law Character Wasn't Selfish
PRODIGIAL'S BROTHER RIGHT
The lawyers back in Babylon knew more about prodigal sons and their return than the saints since Augustine, if Prof. Albert Clay of Yale has correctly deciphered the four of the oldest table laws known. The laws were inscribed in the Sumerian language about 2000 B. C.
The prodigal son was a fool—both the saints and the lawyers agree to that. But the saints have blackened the moral eye of the prodigal one's brother too long. He was really an estimable member of the family.
The New Testament parable of the prodigal is based, says Professor Clay, upon the law which he has just deciphered, and which undoubtedly was part of the written or unwritten codes of all Oriental countries long before the advent of Christ. For most present day, its legal origin and meaning have never been suspected by the expounders of the prophets and the battling theologians.
The Babylonian law, just translated, says: 'If a son say to his father and his mother: 'Thou are not my father, not my mother,' from the house, field, plantation, servants, property, animals he shall go forth; and his share to its full amount he (his father) shall give him. His father and his mother shall say to him, 'Not our son. From the neighborhood of the house he will come.' Which means that son desiring a separate career had a legal right to his share of his father's goods before the latter's death. Which, also, says Professor Clay, explains the demand of the New Testament prodigial, "Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me."

KANSAS MEETS TIGERS
ON M'COOK TOMORROW
Ancient Enemy of Jayhawkers Comes to Lawrence for Annual Track Contest
Tomorrow afternoon on McCook Field the Kansas track team will have its turn at the Tiger from Columbia, Missouri. The Jayhawk has an outing to two in baseball and it is up to the cinder artists to follow suit. Three straight victories over the ancient enemy in three days was the feat accomplishment of the Giants' own home and a chance it will be done this year.
Chances are slight, however, for the track situation around the Jayhawker camp is lamentable to some extent for in the past few weeks Coach Hamilton has been unable to get hold of or develop a mentor or hurdle with the development of his arbor at the way to the tape. Should Kansas come near a second place there would be a streak of joy strike the Jayhawker mentor.
"Speed" Heath, who has been jumping the sticks for Kansas is nursing a bad leg that has been giving him trouble for a couple of weeks and which kept him from placing against Nebulak in meet week. It is doubled if he start either event for the Lawbackers.
The Kansas entries in the mile, half and quarter will probably not be determined until Edwards' condition is settled. The team will be the probable entries and Fiske and Creighton, both "K" men of last year, will be sent against Captain Murphy of Missouri in the half. Grady and Posis are scheduled to run Kline of Missouri in one race. The team that has been seen for some time. Rodkey's partner in the 440 yard run has not been selected yet and will not be known until the meet starts. The Missouri star, Niedorp, will be Rodkey's opponent. The Kansas cannot hope to get both places.
The condition of Edwards, distance man, is causing the most worry with the Kansans now. The Jayhawner captain has been in ill health since the interclass meet on April 30. He was allowed to enter theネービルmeet last weekend. TheNEービルmet and the relay. Coach Hamilton said today that he did not know whether the doctor would allow Edwards to compete or not.
"It looks as though Missouri had us for about fifteen points," said Coach Hamilton today. "I was hoping that the men would get in better shape before we went to practice." I am hoping we can hold them down so that the relay will decide the meet but I don't know that we can. Then I don't know whether we could win or not, for we have to send on Edwards to a great extent.
The meet will be started promptly at 2:30 o'clock tomorrow because the Missourians must leave on the evening train. The Tiger baseball team will stay over to root for their track and field team, even a small bunch of supporters can produce the noise. Kansas will turn out in full force.
Black Helmet, the sophomore honorary society, will pledge its members for next year at 12:20 Monday. The colors will be planned on the men's street under the big cuttonwood tree between Fraser and Snow Hills.
BLACK HELMETS WILL
PLEDGE 21 MONDAY
Twenty-one men of the freshman class have been elected to Black Helmet. Their names will not be debilitated until the day of the pledging.
Four Gospel teams will be sent out every Sunday for the remaining school term, to the different churches in the country. At a meeting in Myers Hall last night the members of the church were asked and the men will visit four churches next Sunday. Services will be conducted by them at No. 6 school house, poor farm, Barker school house and the Y. M. C. A. team, headed by Neal Ireland, chairman of the Gospel Team Committee of the University of North Side Christian Church. Twelve or fifteen men are interested in this movement and all Lawrence churches are co-operating.
The collection of enlarged photographs of the School of Engineering interior, exterior and laboratory views is on exhibition at Wichita, this week, where the Kansas section of stationary Engineers are holding their annual convention. Prof. A. H. Sluss is in charge of the exhibit.

GIVES LAUNDRY JUDGEMENT
Jury Fails to See Why Clayton Boys Were Damaged
In the suit, Wilder Brothers Laundry against Gilbert M. Clayton and Ross H. Clayton, students in the College, for $1740.26, the jury yesterday gave the verdict to the laundry company allowing Wilder Brothers a judgment of $1600. This suit was filed by Wilder Brothers in January, but the court ruled that Clayton had not paid the money due from the K. S. U. laundry agency which had been operated by the Claytons.
The Clayton brothers filed a counter suit for damages which they claim was due them for Wilder's failure to live up to his contract and on account of poor work turned out to their customers.
The defendants will ask for a new trial.

BAND TO APPEAR NEXT WEEK
Director McCanles Will Have Muscians out in Open Air Concert
The band will give an open air concert on the campus one evening next week. The date will be announced later. The attendance at this first appearance will determine whether other concerts will follow.
"We are willing to give the open air concerts if the people of the University appreciate it enough to turn out to them but we are not willing to spend our time there when there are only a few to hear the band," said Director J. C. McCanles, this morning.
HAS FINEST VIEW IN STATE
Architectural Engineers Say Third Place of Marvin is Best Place
Every afternoon a dozen or more students take turns in carefully examining the campus and the golf links. Whispering lovers are seen in secluded spots, entirely unaware of watchful eyes a half mile away, or watching people for the May Fete, dance merrily on unconscious of attracting any attention.
All over Kansas it is conceded that the view from the heights of Mt. Oread is the finest in the state. Now it has been decided just what fields the greatest return for the least effort. The students of architectural engineering are unanimous in the belief that the spot is on the third floor of the Engineering Building, directly front of the giant telescope, located
Professors on the tennis courts are safely childed for bad returns and serve. The balls are applauded when the ball sails over the fence for a home run.
SENIORS ARE SLOW TO ORDER CLOTHES
Less than 150 of the 350 seniors and graduate students who will receive degrees this spring have ordered caps and gowns, is the report of the committee in charge. There is someone at the check stand in Fraser all the time to receive a order but business never seen. Many probably waited until the last day. Seniors who intend to order should do so before the last minute. It will save the committee a great deal of inconvenience.
Notes of the Game
A great deal has been said and written about the psychological moment in baseball games but yesterday afternoon Dutch Harrell gave a demonstration that will go down in an animals. And the call was three on him.
Kansas was cheated out a score in the third inning when Wesible's spikes stuck in the clay, causing him to lose. Russell's two-bagger would have scored him under any other circumstances.
Left fielder Owens for the Tigers got his hands on Captain Delongy's drive in the first inning and just did enough to it to keep the scors from chalking up a hit for the Kansas leader.
Registrar Speaks
Of the ten hits off Craig three were of the feeble infield variety. Red whipped eleven of the enemy which helped out some.
Bad ninth innings as yesterday's have happened to many a good ball team. It's just the break of the game that's all.
When the Jayhawkers hit the blows came in clusters. In each of six innings hits were recorded for the locals.
neregistrar George O. Foster will
commence a commencement address at
Garrison tonight.
LOAN FUND PETITIONS ARE RETURNED SLOWLY
Only Twelve of Two Hundred Papers Sent Out Are in Registrar's Office
WILL EXCEED EXPECTATIONS
Registrar Foster Says Next Few Days Will Surprise Even Members of Committee
Twelve petitions for the $50,000 loan fund had been turned in at the office of Registrar George O. Foster at noon today. Cash to the amount of $65 had been received. Prof. H. T. Hill, of the department of public speaking, turned in the petition with the largest pledge on it; the total be­ came $29. Prof. H. W. Humble one list with a sum of $29 for the loan fund.
More than 200 petitions have been sent out to the class rooms for the teachers to circulate and although they are slow in being returned Registrar Foster thinks that the next few days with a result, that will far exceed the expectations of the loan fund committee. "Judging from these twelve," said Registrar Foster, this morning, "there will be some surplus that counts that the students and faculty are going to give 'o this fund"
The campaign will continue until all students and faculty members are reached. The pledges of the students and faculty, the loan committee says, will determine to a large extent the success of the work outside the University with the members of the duhmil and people of the state.
PROFS TO ATTEND MEETING
Shaad and Sibley Will go to West-
inghouse School June 6
George C. Shaad, professor of electrical engineering and F. H. Sible, director of Fowler Shops, will attend the summer session school for Engineering professors conducted by the Westinghouse Electrical Manufacturing Co., at Pittsburgh, Pa., this summer. The Westinghouse Co. open their shops every summer to a select few professionals who pursue a study in which they are especially interested. Professor Shaad will do special work in central station design and Mr. Sibble steam turbine work.
The Westinghouse Co. has asked twenty-four engineering professors to attend its school this summer, from twenty-three universities and three more colleges. Of the University is the only one on the list asked to send two men. Mr. Shaad and Mr. Sibley will leave for Pittsburgh, July 6.

But There are Kicks and Kickes
Dorothy Miller, sophomore college
receiver for the University of
Chapel Hill, and listened with interest and apparent understanding to all the slams and bangs, handed out to things in general on that occasion. When it came to awarding that silver cup to Dorothy, however, Dorothy was nerked-up.
"What does he get that for?" she whispered
"For kicking," her wise friend answered.
"Oh, I see," said Dorothy, a great light coming to her. "That means he was the one to kick hardest against the faculty, doesn't it?"
The Owls, junior honorary organization, held initiation at the Phi Gamma Delta house last night for the following men: A; Lindsey M. Kline; A.; Dittmer, Rex Mellon; H. G. Appel, Watson Dodge, G. H.
