Six to two was the score of the May day baseball game between the Jayhawkers and the Ottawa Baptists at Ottawa yesterday. The Varsity played an errorless game in the field and was there with the stick when hits meant runs. Hoffman, besides pitching a good game, knocked a home run and a three bagger. Gibbs did the same stunt.

PROM WAS BRILLIANT
FIVE HUNDRED ATTEND FORMAL FUNCTION OF JUNIORS.
THE TRI-WEEKLY KANSAN.
Beginning with next week the Kansan will issue three editions each week. The Kansan will hereafter make its appearance on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
Farce Was a Musical Comedy The Merry Widow Chorus a Unique Feature.
The music, furnished by Kelly's Orchestra, was excellent, the farce was decidedly realistic, the refreshments were dainty, the floor was in perfect condition,-in fact everything about the prom was a success.
The annual promenade, the formal event of the Junior class, given Thursday evening in the auditorium of Robinson Gymnasium, proved to be the most brilliant social affair of its kind ever given at the University. The auditorium was brilliantly lighted with a tastily arranged display of red, blue and white lights. Electric numerals '08 and '09, lighted in the colors of the two classes, gave a pleasing effect. The large pennant of the entertainers was hung at the east end of the room.
At eleven o'clock the grand march, led by Archie Naramore, president of the class, and Grace Collins, started down the hall. Programs were given out by Harold Armsby, Jesse Baldridge, Guy Mosher and Alicia McNaughton. The honors of receiving were done by Archie Naramore, Grace Collins, Chas. Lusk, Bess Keneaster, Tom Veatch, Amarette Weaver, Ernest Skofstad, and Mildred McCurdy.
The farce, "The School for Scandal," was a musical comedy and made a great hit. The Merry Widow chorus with a collection of clever songs was the chief feature. Those who took part in it are: Archie Naramore, Guy Mosher, Willard Wattles, Harold Armsby, Paul Farragher, Chas. Fisher, Luther Thomas, Chas. Lusk, Fred Fisher, Roger Peard, Chas. Rummell, Ben Hennessy, Dan Servey, August Krehbiel, Dan Nevinger, Gertrude Copley, Grace Leslie, Bess Keneaster, Jesse Baldridge, Grace Warner, Maude Katherman, Bertha Kilworth, Nola Ayres and Sibyl Betts.
Ben Forbes of Wathena is a visitor at the Alpha Tau house.
Since the Kansan has been established it has been a semiweekly publication, but the growth of the University makes it possible for the Kansan to increase the frequency of its issues.
With the continued patronage of the Lawrence business men who have business relations with the students and the good will of the student body the Kansan will succeed in the venture.
Watch for the first issue of the tri-weekly Kansan on Tuesday, May 5.
HALSTEAD WINS CHAMPIONSHIP
Six Teams Entered in Basket Ball Tournament.
The teams entered in the tournament were Halstead, Topeka, Chanute, Fort Scott, Eudora, and Nickerson. Halstead defeated Nickerson, Topeka beat Eudora, Chanute took the measure of Fort Scott, Chanute went down before Halstead, Fort Scott was beaten by Topeka, and in the final clash Halstead defeated Topeka, 30 to 29.
Last night by defeating Topeka in the final game of the basket ball tournament the Halstead high school won the High School championship of Kansas. Henry J. Bischoff, '07, a teacher in the Halstead school is the coach of the team.
Freshmen Win Two Games.
Yesterday afternoon the Freshmen base ball squad beat the Leavenworth High School by the one sided score of 18 to 2. The contest was a batting festival all the way through as far as the Freshmen were concerned. The high school boys are good players and put up a good brand of the national game. They were playing out of their class however.
This morning the Dickinson county high school's fast base ball team met the Freshmen on McCook and were defeated by the close score of 2 to 1. The high school boys played a snappy contest and the final score of the game was in doubt until the last man was out. The Freshmen were able to connect with the ball at opportune times and were thus able to get on the long end of the score.

LAWRENCE AND THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Fortunate for the good reputation of Lawrence and the good of the University is it that the sentiment antagonistic to the enforcement of law is confined to two of the newspapers of the town and a few individuals interested personally in the liquor traffic. As regards the enforcement of law the interests of the University and Lawrence are one and the same. The good name of the University over the state is closely linked with that of the city of Lawrence. What is wicked in Lawrence is in the eyes of the public an evil of the University, and the wrongs of the University are to the popular notion linked with the conditions of Lawrence. That is just the reason why the University should have a deep interest in the rigid enforcement of law in the city.
There always has been a tendency in Lawrence for the citizens of the town to antagonize the students in every move they make. It is customary for Lawrence people to consider the students as their natural enemies. But in an issue such as has arisen within the last few days the people of Lawrence and the students of the University should throw away all petty differences and stand together. Let their common interest unite them. The city of Lawrence could not well do without the University; the University could not find a city in all the state where it would have a better location. The Kansan believes the students are fully justified in demanding that the officers enforce the law, and it
further believes the people of Lawrence should heartily endorse the demands.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Junior promenade was a decided success. It will be safe to say it was the best ever. The farce was original and exceedingly well given, the music was of the best and all the details of arrangement were attended to with a care that made the event one of the most pleasurable social events ever held at the University.
The stand the Lawrence World has taken in the matter of law enforcement should receive the hearty commendation of every good citizen of Lawrence and student of the University.
While plaudits of "well done" continue to be showered on the School of Journalism by the press of the state the Lawrence Gazette tries to cast slurs on the edition of the Journal issued a week ago by the Scoop Club and newspaper classes. The Gazette will be remembered as the paper which last fall accused the athletic association of selling out the Washburn game.

NEW FELLOWSHIPS.
In addition to the industrial fellowship to which H. A. Kohman was recently appointed, two more fellowships in industrial chemistry have just been established in Prof. Robert K. Duncan's department. One of these will be known as the Charles Harding fellowship,and was founded by Mr. Charles Harding of Omaha, Nebraska. It concerns the utilization of the waste buttermilk from butter manufacture. This fellowship is of two years duration and pays $500 a year with ten per cent of the net profits resulting from the investigation. E. L. Tague '08 will hold the fellowship for the next two years.
The third fellowship was established by Mr. J. J. R. Greenlees of Lawrence. This fellowship is concerned with the extraction of certain constituents of crude petroleum. It will last two years and will yield to the holder $1000 a year with ten per cent of the profits. Prof. F.W. Bushong of the Chemistry department has been appointed to this fellowship.
In the five fellowships Professor Duncan has so far established he has added about six thousand dollars to the current research funds of the Graduate School.

VOLUME IV.
A MUSICAL TREAT COMING
SPRING CONCERTS BEGIN NEXT FRIDAY EVENING.
Chicago Symphony Orchestra, a Chorus of 100 and David Bispham the Attractions.
The fifth annual music festival at the University of Kansas will be held in Robinson Gymnasium Friday and Saturday, May 8 and 9. The first concert will be Friday night when Mr. David Bispham will give a song recital. Mr. Bispham was for ten years the leading bass of the Royal Opera in Convent Garden, London, and for years was a star at the Metropolitan Opera House, New York. This year he is devoting his time to song recitals, a form of art in which he is equally great.
The second concert will be given Saturday afternoon by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra of sixty-five pieces, and four soloists. Prof. C.A. Preyer will render his new concert piece for the piano and orchestra on this occasion.
The third event Saturday evening will be a concert performance of Gounod's opera "Faust" by seven soloists, a chorus of one hundred voices, and orchestra. The chorus has been faithfully practising this most popular of operas and will give an interesting program.
Through the efforts of Dean Chas, S. Skilton the music festival has become the leading feature of the musical life at the University, and has always attracted large crowds. This year will be no exception as the seat sale has been large many out of town orders being received from Topeka, Leavenworth, Kansas City, Ottawa and nearby small towns.
Chancellor Gives Address.
Chancellor Strong will deliver the commencement address at the University of New Mexico on Friday of this week.
Prof. C. M. Young is analyzing the gases formed from exploded powder with the view of ascertaining the causes of coal mine explosions.
K. U. WON; 5 TO 6
BUT THE GAME WITH WASH-BURN WAS NOT EASY.
Washburn Scored First and Was Ahead in the Eighth, When Kansans Began to Bat.
Six to five, with the Congregationalists on the down hill end of the score, is a condensed report of the hardest, fiercest ball game that the Jayhawkers have played this season. From the first "play ball" till the game was won in the ninth it was anybody's contest.
Washburn started the scoring in the opening round. A base on balls, a single, a man hit by a pitched ball and a double gave them two scores. The lead was short, for in their half of the first the Kansans garnered three on Carlson's two sacker and singles by Jennings, Angney, and Doubleday.
The Jayhawkers got one in the second, the Topekans added one to their list in the fourth. Neither side could score until the eighth when Washburn again took the lead, drawing a base on balls, two long singles and two scores.
Then in the last half of the ninth, with the score 5 to 4 against them, the Jayhawkers developed a grand batting rally, which assisted by a medley of errors gave them the game. Hoffman, who played left field, the first man up, pooled out a screeching three bagger. Rockerfeller sacrificed him home. Harlan got to first but was out at second on Gibbs' infield rap. Gibbs stole second, got to third on a wild throw, and came on home with the winning run on a second stray heave directed toward third.
Both sides played good ball and both pitchers were hit freely. Harlan was not in his usual form but several times, when men were on bases, he settled down and retired the side.

TAKE FIRST GAME.
'Varsity Wins From Christian Brothers' College.
Yesterday afternoon in St. Louis the Jayhawkers inaugurated their eastern trip by defeating Christian Brothers' College by the score of 4 to 0. Hoffman had the St. Louisans on his staff throughout the contest and the Kansans put up a great fielding game. Today the same teams play, Wednesday and Thursday the Jayhawkers play Washington, and Friday and Saturday they go to Columbia for a couple with Missouri. The men who made the trip with Manager Lansdon are: Captain Young, Rockerfeller, Gibbs, Jennings, Angney, Carlson, Doubleday, Harvey, McLenan, Stephenson, Harlan and Hoffman.
Meet Cornhuskers Saturday.
Next Saturday afternoon the Nebraska track team will meet the Jayhawkers on McCook. Last spring Kansas took the meet by the close score of $ 52 \frac{1}{2} $ $ 50\frac{1}{2} $ and the contest next Saturday promises to be just as interesting.
FESTIVAL IS PLANNED
NOVEL EVENT ON UNIVERSITY CAMPUS MAY 23.
Girls to Give May Pole Dance Four Sororities Represented.
Miss Shearer Is Queen.
A May Festival similar to that held biennially at Bryn Mawr will take place on the University campus on the afternoon of May 23rd. Many features of the old May day celebrations in England will be introduced but the festival will be much simpler this year than those of the Eastern colleges since the project is now in the experimental stage.
The celebration will begin about three o'clock on the lawn east of Fraser Hall. The first event will be a procession preceded by heralds. In this procession all the actors of the day will appear. This will be followed by the crowning of the May Queen, who has been chosen from the senior class. She will he preceded by the children of the faculty bearing flowers. Her attendants will be twelve in number four chosen from each of the three lower classes.
The Seniors chose Miss Nell Shearer as Queen of the May. For her attendants the Juniors chose today at noon Mildred McCurdy, Nola Ayers, Grace Collins and Bertha Luckan. The sophomores selected for that honor Jennie Urdy, Esther Evans, Margaret Fort and Edith Myers.
After the queen is crowned, five May poles will be wound with May pole dances. One pole will be wound by each of the four sororities, the fifth by girls chosen to represent the University. Music for the dances will be furnished by oldtime fiddlers in costume. May day games such as quoits, archery and bowling on the green will be carried on in different parts of the campus.
Later in the day "Pyramus and Thisbe" will be presented in North Hollow by the Beta fraternity. Songs from Reginald de Kovin's opera "Robin

ISSUE NUMBER ONE OF THE TRI-WEEKLY
Today the first issue of the Tri-Weekly Kansan appears. It is the ambition of the present editorial staff of this paper to make a daily out of the Kansan before its term expires. At present there are several obstacles in the way of this. The increase in the number of issues will enable the Kansan to handle more of the University news while it is news. The Kansan is a newspaper, not a magazine, and the present staff is in favor of keeping it a newspaper. As a newspaper it must publish the news first. When the news has been printed the remainder of the space in the Kansan, which will always be small, may be used for literary efforts of those who write well.
Everywhere in Kansas, from the country weekly and from the metropolitan daily, from city and hamlet the press is teeming with praises for the students' edition of the Lawrence Journal. In all the host there is only one discordant note and that comes from the Lawrence Gazette. It continues to berate the edition with an ardour born of envy.
WHAT A FEW OF THE MANY SAY
Boys Were Right.
The State University boys who printed in their special edition of the Lawrence Journal, the location of the Lawrence joints and the number of sales in the drug stores, were exactly and entirely right in doing so. They were right from a news standpoint. The location of a joint is news, as much as the location of a horsethief. The good citizens have a right to know where the joint is, that
they may avoid it, and the bad citizens have a right to know, that they may patronize it. From a moral standpoint, the boys were right, because publicity is the antiseptic which cures every social sore. And from the standpoint of the University the boys were right, for if the joints are patronized by students, the faculty had a right to know where the joints were and to look them up. The Gazette for a dozen years and more has made it a policy to print the location of any joint in Emporia, and every month or so, it prints the drug store sales. These things help. In this way a newspaper can do a great deal for a town. The University boys simply gave Lawrence a touch of the real thing in newspapers.—William Allen White in Emporia Gazette.
The Lawrence Gazette objects to the student edition of the Lawrence Journal that it was "not a newspaper." The people of Lawrence have been talking about nothing else but that issue of the Journal ever since it came out. It was a newspaper, all right.-Topeka Capital.
--is the standard of the world. It has been formally adopted as the official ball of the National League for over thirty years and by thirty other professional bodies from one to twenty years. In the great world's championship games between the Chicago Nationals and Detroit Americans the Spalding National League Ball was used The Spalding Official National League Ball is used by Yale, Harvard, Princeton and all prominent college teams. The soldiers and sailors in the United States Army and Navy use it exclusively. In fact it is in universal use wherever base ball is played.
The University students' edition of J. L. Brady's Lawrence Journal was a remarkable improvement over his regular edition.—Ewing Herbert in Brown County World.
Following the appearance of the newspaper issued in Lawrence by University students last Saturday, the police raided four places where liquor was sold. It was the biggest "raid," except one, Lawrence ever experienced. . . . It might not hurt some of the Lawrence papers if the class in journalism at the State University were allowed to get out their papers indefinitely.-Kansas City Star.

SUBPOENAS FOR NINETY
STUDENTS, WISE AND OTHERWISE, TO GO ON STAND.
The Journalism School, Scoop Club and Fifty Others Drew a White Slip of Paper.
The sheriff, loaded down with subpoenas, was on the "hill" today delivering his official invitations to about ninety students who are on his list of invited guests to appear in the cases brought against the jointists who were recently arrested as a result of the exposure story in the students' edition of the Lawrence Journal.
In addition to the members of the staff that edited the Journal about fifty other students are on the invited list. The sheriff and his deputies have been collecting names ever since the "story" appeared in the Journal. A large number of those who received subpoenas, however, know nothing about the case but the sheriff says the only way he has of telling which ones make good witnesses is to have them go on the stand and tell what they may know. Most of the men who have been subpoenaed are well known students in the University.
In regard to the subpoenaing of students, County Attorney Harley said: "It is the only way we have of securing evidence against these people. No student who goes on the stand need have any fear so long as he tells the truth, for I intend to do everything in my power to protect the students from anything that would be disagreeable. We are of course depending on those we have called to tell what they know and thereby avert what might be serious trouble."
Sheriff Woodward said: "I don't see any cause for this apparent scare among the students who have been subpoenaed. It is only a case of come up and tell what you know. I am personally interested in seeing that the law is enforced and hope the students will stand back of it. If they do not I am at a loss to know who we can find to stand back of the law."
It is thought by the county officials that all the jointists will enter a plea of guilty when they are confronted with a crowd of the witnesses, many of whom they will recognize. In this case none of the witnesses will be called.

NEWBOLD ELIGIBLE AND ENTIRE TEAM IN SHAPE.
---
The Jayhawker Track Squad Meets Cornhuskers on McCook Saturday.
Next Saturday afternoon the Nebraska track squad will meet the Jayhawkers in the only inter-Collegiate meet on McCook this season. The Cornhuskers are coming bent upon retrieving their defeat of last year. In the dual meet last spring the Jayhawkers were victors by the score of $52\frac{1}{2}$ to $50\frac{1}{2}$. The contest was not decided until the last event was over and Nebraska would have gone home with the big end of the score had not their two-miler stepped out of the track. As it was the Nebraska management referred the case to the A. A. U. but Kansas was sustained and was given the meet.
Newbold removed his condition Monday and will be in the meet next Saturday.
Coach Hagerman is expecting first place in the quarter, half, mile, two mile, high jump, discus, hammer and relay. Seconds are expected in the hundred, two-twenty, quarter, low hurdles, broad jump, shot, discus, pole vault, and high jump. Kansas has an excellent chance to get 64 of the 117 points and walk away with the contest.
Martin Delaney of the K. C. A. C. will referee. Sixteen out of the following eighteen men will represent Kansas: Captain Priest, Young, Parker, Drake, Cooley, Cummins, Pringle, Guthrie, Wenger, Coventry, Newbold, Eddy, Cohn, Martindell, Winters, McCoy, Bergen and Allendorfer.
Saw Kipling and Mark Twain.
Professor D. L. Thomas talked on "Rudyard Kipling" before the Quill Club Tuesday afternoon. He read some selections from Kipling's writings and commented on their character. Professor Thomas was at Oxford last summer when degrees from that University were conferred upon Kipling and Mark Twain. He had the pleasure of meeting the humorist after the meeting.
The Debating Council met Wednesday evening and voted to order medals for the boys who have represented the University in the inter-collegiate debates of the year. They will be in the watch fob style and will be adorned with miniature gavels.

LANSDON SEVERS RELATIONS WITH ST. LOUIS SCHOOL.
Christian Brothers College Insisted on Playing Ineligible Man— Kansas Loses Game 6 to 1.
As a result of the Kansas-C. B.C. game in St. Louis Tuesday Manager Lansdon has severed all athletic relations with the St. Louisans. The Missouri school insisted that Murphy should play at second in spite of the fact that he had not been on the certified list sent to Manager Lansdon, and after a half hour of squabbling Kansas allowed the protested man to play letting it be understood however that no more games would be played with Christian Brothers College.
In the game the tables were turned on the Jayhawkers and they were drubbed 6 to 1. The players waded mud ankle deep. The city lads were very successful with their bunting game. The Kansans could gather in only four hits while the St. Louisans mastered Stephenson's delivery in the seventh and drove him from the mound. Hoffman, who the day before had allowed the same team but one hit, went in to pitch but could do nothing with the opposing batters.
The series between the two schools ended with each team credited with one game, Kansas having won Monday 4 to 0.

THE WEDGE OF DISCORD
COMMITTEE DISAGREES ON WOMAN'S RIGHTS QUESTION.
---
Are Girls to be Represented on Council? "No," Say Some; "Yes," Others. — Brunner Withdraws.
After three hours of heated wrangling last night over the form of organization for the student council the "Committee of Ten" which was appointed at the meeting of students some time ago finally split on the jagged rock of woman's rights and as a result a majority and minority report will be presented to the mass meeting of students which is to be held in chapel next Wednesday evening.
The split was all over whether the girls should be entitled to representatives in the student council. Five of the members of the committee led by the chairman, Walter Brown, were in favor of denying the girls representation on the council. The other members, Archie Naramore, R.O.Douglas, Ernest Skofstad and Clay Waters were in favor of giving the girls a voice in the management of student affairs. The fight waxed warm. "It would be a failure with the girls dabbling in it," said the leader of the majority.
"The girls are students in this school and as students are entitled to representation in the student council," replied the defenders of woman's rights.
Neither side would give in, but held firm to their ideas of the inalienable rights of coeds. Emile Brunner has withdrawn from the committee. Two plans for a student council have been drawn up and both factions will be prepared to defend their contentions before the mass meeting Wednesday.
"We must keep the girls and freshmen off this student council if it is to succeed, for both of them control politics and always run it in the ground," said Chairman Brown.
"The girls are as much interested in student affairs as anyone and by all that's good and sweet the girls must have a square deal," said Mr. Naramore.

EDITORIAL COMMENTS
The May music festival opens tomorrow. This annual event, which is now well on its feet, is an enterprise which deserves the support of every student in the University. The best music obtainable will be in Lawrence the last few days of this week and the kind of music that students can not afford to miss.
One thing is certain. If the Journalism School at the University of Missouri gets half as much advertising out of each edition of its paper as the School of Journalism here got from its one issue, Bryan or Taft will not be the most talked of individuals in the country next fall.
St. Mary's College played a game of base ball Sunday with Fort Riley. If it had been any other school than a denominational school a mighty yell would have gone up from the good people of Kansas lamenting the irreverence of the school.
The scrap Manager Lansdon got into at St. Louis only serves to show that Kansas more than once gets the rough end of it in trying to deal fairly in eligibility rules. It is reliably reported that one of the men who played with the Washburn team in their game here Saturday is not even a student in Washburn college.
At some places the faculty may have taken the control of athletics out of the hands of the students, but at Harvard the faculty has admitted its inability to properly control student athletics and is on the verge of giving authority of handling athletics over to the students.
The School of Journalism at the University of Missouri is next year to issue a daily paper of its own. The dean of the school is to be the editor of the paper and the students in the newspaper classes are to be the news getters. Now, as most editors who received their degree in the Journalism School of experience would say, you are becoming practical. And it does seem that the method Missouri has adopted is the best that could be devised for the teaching of the newspaper business. A paper so run by the school can be made to serve several purposes. It first serves as a news organ for the University; secondly if run on proper methods it can be made to pay part of the expenses of the Journalism School and lastly, of most importance it gives the embryo journalists an opportunity of seeing how it is done, and relieves them of the ordeal of trying to learn the newspaper business by hearsay.
As the result of the University students' disclosures all the "joints" in Lawrence have been raided. The dive keepers regard the Scoop club more in the nature of a Swoop club.- Kansas City Star.

IN THE COLLEGE WORLD.
As the Pennsylvania authorities refuse to erect extra stands on Franklin field, the annual game between the Army and Navy will not take place at Philadelphia next fall. It is rumored that the game may be played at New York instead, and that both teams are highly in favor of the change.
A course in life-saving for girls is about to be instituted at Barnard College. The girls will receive the regular lifesaving drill, including the grips and breaks, towing to shore and artificial respiration. A fully clad girl will be thrown into the water at one end of the tank and other girls will be obliged to rescue her from the other end and take her back. The record for this feat at Columbia is fifty-seven seconds.
The Indiana faculty has a standing committee whose duty it is to co-operate with the students in the regulating of fraternity and sorority parties.
Following the recent semiannual examination at Annapolis it was found that twenty-six naval cadets had failed while sixty-four were deficient in one or more studies.

Recently a down-town theatre at Ann Arbor broke a contract to stage a University production, and now a movement is on foot for the University of Michigan to buy the Majestic—the best of the local houses—and use it simply for the productions of the University.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH WILL ESTABLISH ONE IN LAWRENCE.
Plans Launched at Emporia to Raise $100,000.—An Unofficial Department of University.
A movement has been started which promises to result in the establishment of a divinity school in connection with the University. The plans were made at a meeting of the Kansas State Ministerial Institute of the Christian church at Emporia last Thursday.
they have two denominational colleges of their own in that state.
The Christian church has no denominational college in this state. To establish a college to give the training for the general A.B.degree it would take at least a half million dollars. The plan is to take advantage of the great opportunity of letting students take their A.B. work on the "hill" and then endow three or four chairs for the teaching of Hebrew, Homoletics, History of Doctrine, and other theological subjects leading to the B.D.degree. There would be no regular connection between the two schools as there is at Baker, but the results of the two working together could easily surpass anything in the state. The Christian church expects to raise $100,000 for the endowment of these chairs,the work being carried on in Myers Hall at first if there is no objection from the controlling Board of Missions.
A committee has been appointed to conduct the raising of the money. This committee met in Wichita Wednesday night to formulate plans which will be presented to the state convention at Topeka in October.
At Missouri U. there are three members of the faculty maintained by the Christian church for this work, although

In addition to this treat other attractions such as the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, a chorus of 100 trained voices and several
A. C. B.
noted soloists will appear during the festival.
The sale of tickets has been unusually large assuring the financial success of the entertainment. Dean Skilton in speaking of the festival said, "We have every reason to believe that the festival this year will outshine all former performances, and that it will be a great success."

FOR HOSPITAL
Two Dollar Fee From Each Student—Dr. H. S. Chambers of University Physicians
Lecompton Physician.
The executive committee of the University Hospital Association met this week and made arrangements to establish a student hospital for next year. The Spencer house located a quarter of a mile north-west of the Engineering building will be used for that purpose.
Dr. H. S. Chambers, of Lecompton, was approved by the regents as hospital physician. The regents also agreed that a two dollar fee should be charged to each student for the maintenance of the hospital and that a room be set apart in some building on the campus for consultation purposes. Gas and water mains will be extended to the Hospital by the Association.
A committee has been appointed to secure the necessary equipment for the place. Trained nurses who are taking work in the University Medical school will be employed. The two dollar fee entitles each student to medical attention and the hospital privilege free of charge during serious illness.
A meeting of the Association will be held May 15 in the chapel to elect officers and revise the constitution.

VOLUME IV.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 9, 1908.
NUMBER 63
CORNHUSKER SCORE 68 TO 49
KANSAS MET HARD DEFEAT ON McCOOK TODAY.
Hard Luck Was Partly Responsible—Priest Won Relay—Kansas Got Four Firsts.
This afternoon on McCook the mighty Cornhuskers track and field athletes gave Kansas a bitter dose of defeat, and beat them in the dual meet by the score of 68 to 49.
Nebraska won the meet because she had the best team. However the Jayhawkers had hard luck in several places that robbed them of well deserved points. Newbold fell down in the low hurdles when he had a sure second and a possible first, and Priest, the greatest half-miler in the Missouri Valley, was forced to leave the half mile before one lap was finished and was carried from the track in a bad condition.
The fastest time made in the meet was that of Dennis who ran the quarter in fifty-two seconds and Alden of Nebraska, who finished the mile in 4:37 3-5.
100 yd dash—Hughes, N., first; Wildman, N., second. 101-5.

This afternoon the Chicago Symphony Orchestra gave the second concert of the series. Among the excellent renditions, "Concertstueck" a composition for piano and orchestra by Professor Carl Preyer, was the chief feature of local interest. The orchestration for this selection was arranged by Carl Busch, of Kansas City.
Gounod's "Faust," an opera in five acts, will be given this evening as the last concert of the festival.

J. RALPH BURTON TELLS THINGS
Talked to Good Government Club Tuesday Evening at the Beta House.
The first meeting of the Good Government Club since the recent election of twenty new members, was held Thursday night at the Beta house.
The feature of the meeting was the address of ex-Senator J. Ralph Burton on "Autocrats and Despotism." The speaker discussed at length the methods of legislation and the state of affairs at Washington as he has personally observed them. He emphasized the fact that the three departments of government, the Legislative, the Judicial and the Executive are many times dangerously influenced by each other, when especially the Judicial department should be free from all outside influence.
Prof. E. Haworth leaves this evening for Washington, D. C., where he will attend a conference of the state geologists and the United States Geological Survey.
JAYHAWKERS HUMBLE TIGERS
JENNINGS PITCHES GREAT GAME; KNOCKS TWO-BAGGER.
Squeeze Play Featured Fast Contest—Missouri Out-hit and Outfielded.
Yesterday afternoon, with Jennings on the pitcher's mound, Kansas humbled the Tigers on their home field by the close score of 2 to 1. Jennings allowed Missouri only four hits while the Jayhawkers were poling out seven bingles off Gunby.
The Tigers scored the first run of the game in the third inning on an error, a pass and a two-bagger. In the sixth Jennings opened up by doubling to right, Gibbs followed suit and Jennings romped over the pan. Gibbs was out at third but Carlson got around to the third sack. Doubleday bunted beautifully and Carlson rushed home on a neatly executed squeeze play.
The Kansans were the superiors of their opponents in every department of the game, but as it was the Missourians put up a close fight. The score:
R H
K. U. -0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0-2-7
Missouri-0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0-1-4
Kansas Beats Washington U.
Timely hitting, good fielding and superb pitching gave Kansas a victory over Washington in St. Louis Thursday. The game scheduled between the two schools for Wednesday was postponed on account of rain and Thursday's contest was played in a steady drizzle.
Harlan was in great form. Twice he pitched himself out of bad holes and the St. Louisans could gather in only two hits off his delivery. The feature of the contest was the sensational batting of Angney who poled four hits out of his five trips to the plate.
Hardaway, the star Washington twirler, was on the slab against the Kansans but he met his Waterloo. Besides being batted all over the ball lot, he could not locate the plate.
The score:
K. U...0 0 0 1 0 1 0 2 1-5-12-3
Wash...0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0-1-2-1
Announcement.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Lawrence Journal with the same proclivity to misrepresent everything and everybody connected with the recent edition of the students' paper, published a story a few days ago in regard to Harry Kemp's departure for New York which was entirely misleading in its insinuations and wholly untrue in its statement of fact. Mr. Kemp was not a frequenter of the "Bottoms" as was stated. On the other hand he had only been in that section of the city once—the time he secured the information for his poem. He did not leave Lawrence for the purpose of escaping a subpoena as was published in the down town paper. A number of times during the few days before he left Lawrence he asked the members of the Scoop Club whether or not the club would need him to prove the story it published in the Journal. He was averse to leaving if he would be needed. And he was also greatly concerned lest people think he had left to get away from a subpoena and actually delayed his departure for a few days for fear of such an impression getting out. Harry Kemp left Lawrence only after he was assured by his friends that he would not be needed.
The law school is almost ready to send out its annual consignment of lawyers. As a result of the moot court practice several seniors have decided to get in the race for county attorney in their home counties. Wendell McCanles has the fastest record. Friday he went to Lincoln county to begin his canvass for county attorney. McCanles graduated last year with an A.B. It was his first year at K. U. but he represented the University at Topeka at the Democratic banquet. This year he gets his LL.B. He is running a boarding club, teaching public speaking to University classes, has a small tailor shop, besides taking his law work. To hinder him he was quarantined for diphtheria nearly a month. McCan-
les is a close friend of Bryan and has much of the Nebraskan's persistency. Then too, he is a married man.
David Bispham, doubtless out of deference to the present drouth in Lawrence, sang "Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes," as an encore last night at the Festival.
The Kansas University students who edited the Lawrence Journal for one day reported the fact that L. H. Menger, police judge, owns a building in which a joint was run. It is now reported that the Judge will get back at the students by sending any one of them brought before him as disorderly, to the rock pile. We have a bit of advice for the Judge and the students—don't you do it. Leavenworth Post.
Talks on Illustrating.
Roger Cunningham of the Teachenor-Bartberger Engraving Co., Kansas City, Mo., spoke to the newspaper classes Friday morning on "The Processes or Illustration." Mr. Cunningham was one of the charter members of the first Kansas Newspaper Association which was organized at Manhattan in 1875.
Senior Girls Entertain.
The girls of the senior class entertained the ladies of the faculty yesterday afternoon in the Greek Museum. Ices were served from a table daintily decorated with snowballs and spiraea. About seventy-five guests were received during the afternoon.
Joke Number Two.
Ezra Meeker's "schooner" is the only one in Lawrence that has been in active service for the last day or two.
Mrs. Geo.W. Parkhurst and daughter Mrs. Robt. Garver came from Topeka to attend the Bispham song recital last evening.

Buster Brown, Impostor, Organizes Girls' Baseball Team.
BUSTER BROWN, Coach."
BUSTER BROWN, Coach. The above notice was handed to the Kansan today. It is the result of a practical joke played by Mr. Brown. His spirits were running low and not having anything to do to pass the evening a few nights ago he decided to organize a baseball team among the girls. He called up several girls' rooming houses and represented himself as Dr. Naismith, with the result that the girls named above very enthusiastically joined the team.
K. U. Club in Washington, D. C.
Alumni and former students of the University of Kansas residing in Washington, D. C. recently formed a permanent K. U. club by adopting a constitution and electing officers. T. B. Ford, college '04, is president; E. C. Finney, law '91, is vice-president; and H. S. Bailey, college '02, is secretary and treasurer.
Phi Delts Entertain Bispham.
The Phi Delts gave an informal party last night in F. A. A. Hall in honor of David Bispham, the soloist of the Festival, and Miss Masey of Kansas City. Kelley's orchestra furnished the music. The out-of-town guests were: Harold O. Smith, New York, pianist for Mr. Bispham, Miss Eleanor Neff, Miss Mac Arthur, and Fred Cowles of Kansas City.
McCanles Enters Politics.
Wendell W. McCanles, a senior law and assistant in public speaking went to Lincoln, Kansas today to enter the race for the nomination of county attorney for Lincoln county. Mr. McCanles represented the University at the Democratic banquet last year at Topeka.
Martin Club Entertains.
The girls of the Martin Club gave an informal leap year party Thursday evening in I. O. O. F. The novel feature of the entertainment was the fact that the girls made the dates, took the boys and filled out the program.
K. C. Beck, the bird and animal man of southwestern Kansas, recently sent an antelope and a mountain lion skin to the University museum. They will be mounted and placed in the exhibit.

The Spalding Official National League Ball
is the standard of the world. It has been formally adopted as the official ball of the National League for over thirty years and by thirty other professional bodies from one to twenty years. In the great world's championship games between the Chicago Nationals and Detroit Americans the Spalding National League Ball was used. The Spalding Official National League Ball is used by Yale, Harvard, Princeton and all prominent college teams. The soldiers and sailors in the United States Army and Navy use it exclusively. In fact it is in universal use wherever base ball is played.

Sociology Department Gets Some Interesting Conclusions.
During the fall term the Sociology department of the University conducted an investigation in the college to ascertain the reasons for students electing the courses that they take. This investigation reached 441 students and showed them to be taking 4,723 courses. Of the courses selected,80.5 per cent, were chosen on account of interest in the course; 12.9 per cent, favorable recitation hour; 14.4 per cent liking for instructor; 4.07 per cent, friends in the class; 4.1 per cent, subject appeared to be easy; 9.4 per cent, on suggestion of other students; 4.1 per cent, conflict of hours; 10.7 per cent, home direction; 83.8 per cent, thought best for life work; 71.8 per cent, combination of the above.
The fact is brought out that very few students choose courses because they "look easy," that many students are prompted by home direction, that the individual teacher is not much of a drawing card, that many students mass their work to avoid hill climbing, that conflicting hours have been eliminated and that girls choose culture courses, boys practical ones.

Yesterday afternoon in the most peculiar game of the interschool schedule the Senior Electricals defeated the Mechanicals by the lop-sided score of 15 to 5. Professor Chas. Oswald, an old Dakota University star was on the slab for the mechanics and although he struck out 19 of the Electricals and held them down to 2 lone hits, his side was overwhelmingly defeated on account of dumb playing.

SOPHOMORES
MET DEFEAT
Freshmen Win Unanimous Decision in Annual Debate With Rivals.
The third annual Freshman-Sophomore debate was held in Fraser Hall last Thursday evening, and resulted in a unanimous decision against the Sophomores.
O'Connor Smith, George Bischoff and Jack Ransom represented the Sophomore class on the affirmative of the question: "Resolved, that the free elective system is the best for undergraduate work." They handled their side of the question in a way entirely creditable to themselves and to their class. But the Freshmen team, Louis LaCoss, Walter Eastman, and Elbert Overman succeeded in convincing the judges that their argument was superior to that of the Sophomores.
The judges of the debate were: Professors W. L. Burdick, W. E. Higgins and E. H. S. Bailey.
For three years, since the present junior and senior classes signed a treaty of peace abolishing the May pole scraps at the University of Kansas, the sophs and freshies have met in an intellectual contest to decide the supremacy of the classes.

ATTEMPTED INTIMIDATION
LAWYER RILING TELLS WITNESS BAD STORIES.
Says Client's Will Insinuate Things in Court-Wanted Story Passed Around.
An apparent effort was made yesterday by Ed Riling, said to be the attorney for some of the defendants in the joint cases, to intimidate the state's witnesses by making threats that the reputation of those put on the stand for the prosecution would be assailed in the court room.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Riling telephoned to one of the members of the Scoop Club and asked him to call at his office down town. The member telephoned went to Riling's office on Massachusetts street. He was first asked what he knew in regard to the cases now pending. The Scoop Club member answered the query of the attorney by telling him he would find out when the cases were called in court.
He then made inquiries concerning several individual witnesses in the cases, all the time leaving the impression that he had some kind of information of a scandalous nature up his sleeve.
"Well just pass it around among the fellows that the defendants in these cases have some sensational testimony to offer against some of the witnesses in this prosecution."
The inference left was that the students had better not go on the stand against Riling's clients. Mr. Riling was careful all the way through the conversation to leave the impression that he was not going to bring out any of the disagreeable testimony himself, but he put the blame on those for whom he is acting as attorney. He says the method to be used is that of insinuations in the court.
It is only in this manner that any such faked stories can be gotten out in court. Such evidence is not admissible in court and it is only from trickery on the part of the defendants' attorneys that any such things will be brought up.
The general opinion exists that the threats that have been made are for the purpose of frightening those who have been subpoenaed and that no effort will be made to introduce such testimony in the trials.
Scoop Club Meets Again.
The Scoop Club met last Thursday evening at the Phi Delt house. Jerome Beatty talked on, "Life of a Sporting Editor." "Dooley" Riddle gave a talk on, "The Country Editor."
ANOTHER MEET
INVITATION CONTEST ON McCOOK SATURDAY.
---
Many High School Athletes Will Enter.—Kansas vs. Missouri at Columbia.
Next Saturday afternoon another track meet will be pulled off on McCook in which will be entered the classiest high school athletes of Kansas and northwestern Missouri. The meet is an invitation affair. Representatives will be entered from the Freshmen class, from Wentworth Military Academy and the following high schools: Manual, Central, Westport, Kansas City Kansas, Pittsburg Paola, Wetmore, Lawrence, Burlingame, Overbrook, Dickinson County and St. Joseph Missouri.
A gold lined cup will be given to every athlete that takes a first, a silver cup to those that get a second and a medal to all third place men. The team that takes the largest number of points gets a large loving cup, as does the school winning the relay and the individual making the highest score.
The annual outdoor Kansas-Missouri track and field meet will be decided at Columbia next Saturday. Kansas has always had about as much chance of beating Missouri at track as the Tigers have of humbling the Jayhawkers at football. Kansas ought to make a fair showing next Saturday and have a fighting chance for first place.

THE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL.
Committee Making Place Modern —Getting Ready for Next Year.
The new University Hospital, located northwest of the Engineering building, is a two-story frame structure surrounded by a small grove. For next year the upstairs, consisting of five rooms and one large hall, will be used as the hospital. The rooms have outer openings, making it possible to keep patients with contagious diseases.
A housekeeper will be employed to take charge of the hospital and to furnish food for the patients. The hospital will contain no consultation room, as one will be located on the campus. The executive committee have made arrangements to refurnish the house, to pipe it with gas and water and to make it modern in every way.
Miss Mary Sellards, '00, who has been teaching Latin and German in Cooper College at Sterling, Kansas, has been elected to a position in the Cherokee county high school.

VICTORS RETURN
YOUNG'S STALWARTS FOUR, LOSE ONE.
Walloped Missouri Second Time— Team Has Played Thirteen Games.
Sunday morning the champion Jayhawker ball team come home from the eastern jaunt with the record of four games won out of five played. Christian Brothers College and Washington University were each sent to the underbrush by the Kansans, and Missouri was defeated twice on their home grounds. The only defeat suffered on the whole trip was at the hands of C.B.C.
Nearly every man came back with his batting average up a few notches and the fielding of the team was nearly as good as it has been on local ball lot.
Thus far the Jayhawkers have played thirteen games and have dropped but two out of this number. The record now is as good as that of the championship team at this time last year.
Missouri Again Defeated.
Saturday afternoon in Columbia the Jayhawkers defeated the Tiger base ball team for the second time this season. Hoffman was the Kansas slabist and while the Missourians were trying to locate his teasers the Jayhawker sluggers were pounding out nine runs. Missouri got two runs on errors. Two Tiger pitchers were sent to the firing line but neither could interest Kansas players.

PUBLICITY AND THREATS OF INTIMIDATION
The Kansan today publishes the story of intimidation that has been tried by one of the defendant lawyers in the joint cases. The University of Kansas and the students are closely connected with the prosecution of these cases. As long as the blackmailing tactics that have been tried are kept in the dark they flourish, but fail of their purpose when exposed in the sunlight of publicity. That is the reason why the Kansan makes no apologies for publishing such stories. The Kansan does not believe that the truth, and all the truth, will hurt any of the witnesses in these cases and the introduction of perjured testimony from motives of intimidation or revenge will be guarded against by lawyers as skilled as any of those defending the alleged jointists.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
When the sensational issue of a local paper was gotten out by some students of the University, the Gazette took occasion to say that a serious mistake had been made. For saying this the Gazette was lambasted by college publications, and abused by the students. It would be interesting to know what they think of it now.—Lawrence Gazette.
It is hard to tell how the students would feel about it if they had no more backbone than an earthworm or the Lawrence Gazette. But as it is, they are going to stand back of their story and do their best to make the facts plain to a jury. It is to be hoped that none of the students when they have left the University and engaged in their life work will ever under any consideration think it necessary to cringe and crawl and palter as some of the newspaper men of this town have been doing since the issue of law enforcement has been put squarely before the people.

NAWAB OF ZU ZU
SENIORS PRESENT MUSICAL COMEDY THIS YEAR.
Play Written by R. L. Douglass Second Production of the Class of 1908.
The Senior class, in its last appearance as a University social unit, will present an original production, "The Nawab of Zu Zu," May 21 and 22 in the Bowersock Theater. The play, a musical comedy, was written by R.L. Douglass. Many classes have attempted a musical comedy but few have succeeded. This is the second effort of the seniors. The first production was similar to "The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary" which was played here this winter, causing the '08 playwriters to produce a new one.
The play will deal with various phases of University life and contains many clever "takeoffs"on students and professors.
When the curtain falls for the last time on this performance, the Class of 1908 will have ended a history of most successful and brilliant entertainments. The Juniors will be entertained the last evening.
The cast of characters is: Director, E. G. Frazier; Roy Roberts, Rebecca Moody, Frank Frickleton, "Zeke" Forter,
"Billy" Miller, Brock Pemberton, Louis Moore, John Paul Jones, Adelbert McCleverty, Guy Siceloff, J. B. Rieman, Roy Cooke and Maud Hall. The chorus: Pianist, Harry Smith; McCleverty, Moore, Priest, Siceloff, Cooke, Forter, Teall, Pemberton, Kate Reynolds, Irene Cunnick, Maud Hall, Genevieve Clark, Frances Holton, Esther Rauch, Jennie Norman and Maime Garret.

TIGERS HERE TOMORROW
TWO GAMES TO BE PLAYED ON McCOOK WITH RIVALS.
Base Ball and Track Meet Saturday—High School Champions Will Contest.
Tomorrow afternoon the Tiger base ball team will arrive from Columbia for a couple of games with the Jayhawkers. Saturday afternoon while the base ball game is going on here, the Kansas-Missouri outdoor track meet will be in progress at Columbia. Kansas has a fighting chance to take this meet and if all the men are in good condition some surprises may be sprung.
Kansas has this year met Missouri in eight athletic contests and has lost only one of these. Three more are yet to be played and Kansas will probably win two of these, the ball games.
High School Record Breakers.
Fifteen high schools of Kansas and western Missouri have entered ninety-two athletes for the great invitation meet on McCook next Saturday. The classiest of all the secondary school athletes in this part of the country will compete and a great many of the McCook high school records are sure to be smashed.

SENIORS
MASS MEETING
ONLY FIFTY STUDENTS PRESENT LAST NIGHT.
Final Effort to Be Made Toward Organization Tuesday in Chanel.
Fifty students attended the mass meeting in Fraser Hall last evening in the interests of student government. The constitution drawn up by the committee of ten was read and discussed at length. The question as to the powers of freshmen and sophomores in the new body of social reformers was the issue of the evening.
The constitution provides for a student board to consist of fifteen members not including the president and vice-president.
The opinion of the speakers last night favored a representation from each school in proportion to the enrolment, and that each school should be a judge of its election. The decision of the powers of various classes promises to be an interesting issue at the final meeting.
Owing to the small crowd present, it was decided to hold a meeting Tuesday morning at the time for chapel and permanently organize the scheme for student government of the various phases of University life
Fellowship to Rebecca Moody.
Miss Rebecca Moody has been granted a fellowship in science at Woods Holl Laboratories, Massachusetts. The fellowship lasts only during the summer but it gives a good opportunity to pursue some special work. It is endowed by Mrs. Sara Robinson, wife of the ex-governor, and is given each year to some woman of the University who has done efficient work in science. Miss Moody will receive her A.B. in June.
Gave Illustrated Lecture.
Professor E. F. Engle gave a very interesting illustrated lecture on the "Land of Wallenstein" this afternoon in the lecture room of Blake Hall. The lecture dealt with the German scenery as Professor Engle saw it when in that country.

VICTORY IS COMPLETE
EIGHT VIOLATORS OF THE LIQUOR LAW CONVICTED.
Newspaper Men Prove Story in Student Edition of Journal.
After two witnesses had gone on the stand yesterday in district court and told a story similar to that which forty or fifty students were ready to tell, the eight defendants in the liquor cases resulting from the exposures in the student edition of the Lawrence Journal plead guilty one after another. The victory for the University journalists was complete. The defendants evidently went to trial with the idea that the student witnesses were suffering from "cold feet" and would fail when the crucial moment came.
The two witnesses that took the stand were not members of the Scoop Club, but the next two men slated for the chair were members of that organization.
County Attorney Haaley said in reference to this matter, "I considered it a state matter, and arranged the witnesses for a special purpose. I had two Scoop Club men for the third and fourth witnesses. Although the Club started the investigation, it had no voice in the arrangement of witnesses."
The two boys who told their story in a convincing manner that left no room for doubt on any body's part. Lawyer Riling, attorney for the first two defendants, attempted to embarrass the last witness, but was unable to confuse the testimony in any way.
After the interruption caused by the verdict of the Parker jury Riling's clients plead guilty. The others that followed got in the band wagon and followed the example without a fight.
THE SENIOR PLAY.
To Be Replete With Musical Choruses.
Frank Parker, manager of the Senior play went to Kansas City today to secure costumes for the staging of Zu Zu which is to be given May 21 and 22. The cast is getting along splendidly in rehearsing, and promise to give one of the best presentations ever given by a senior class. There are twelve chorses in the play, every one said to contain some catchy music. The senior play this year is the first one ever given that is entirely original with the members of the class.

TRUE COLORS HAVE BEEN REVEALED
The conviction of the jointists in district court yesterday was a signal victory for law enforcement in Lawrence. The students' edition of the Lawrence Journal was directly responsible for the question of the enforcement of law being squarely presented to the people of the city. But to the county attorney and sheriff must be given a great deal of credit for what has been done. Thomas Harley and Sheriff Woodward are two men who evidently have no strings attached to them. Lawrence is fortunate in having one daily paper that is not afraid to take its stand on the side of the law. The fight that has been made for law enforcement in Lawrence logically belonged to the Journal, but with a cringing cowardice that was disgusting that paper ran from the responsibility. The Lawrence World took up the fight, although there was no obligation resting upon it to do so except the obligation that right and good citizenship imposes. Those connected with the University should be slow to forget where the different officials and papers of Lawrence stand on the question of law enforcement.
The Kansan knows that those who have been most deeply concerned in the affair have nothing to regret for the part they have played although they have been subjected to severe censure. All the good citizens of Lawrence, a tremendous majority of the students and the officers of the law are with the Scoop club. The east part of Lawrence, two newspapers, and a few other disgruntled persons are expressing regret that the
matter ever came up. Of course this small squad of lawbreakers and "sore heads" makes more noise than all the law abiding, but their blatant invectives should deceive none.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The debating season is now closed in the University. What does a retrospect of the past year show? Out of four debates the past season Kansas has won one, and each debate, except one, was with a much smaller school than the University of Kansas. What is the matter with debating in the University? Does the fault lie with the debaters? No, for Kansas had as good men on the teams this year as she has ever had. The Kansan believes that the debaters should have some one to train them in debate and secondly that the University should give some material encouragement to debating by giving the debating societies better quarters and lending encouragement to the organization of debating societies.
Such meets as the one to be held on McCook field Saturday are one of the best advertising mediums the University has. It is up to the students of the University to treat the visiting high school students as well as possible when they are at the University. If a high school athlete spends a pleasant day here he will not only have an incentive to come back the next year, but will advertise the fact in his school that the University of Kansas is a great place.

Phi Delta Phi to Give Banquet.
This morning the Freshmen defeated the Manual High School base ball team in a fast well played game by the score of 5 to1. The fielding was good on both sides, both pitchers were effective and the game was keenly fought all the way through.
The Phi Delta Phi law fraternity met Wednesday evening and made plans for a banquet to be given before the close of school. George N. Gibbs was elected to the office of consul. The other officials associated with him are R. O. Douglas, C. C. Merillat, R. H. Worline, H. T. Fisher and H. C. Wood.
FRENCH PLAY WAS GOOD.
All the Parts Were Well Acted by French Students.
The French play "Les Vivacités du Capitaine Tic" was given last Tuesday evening. The large, appreciative audience was of accord in saying that it was the best French play ever given at the University. Roy Dietrich, as the kicking artist; Miss Helen Ames, as the bewitching little cousin; the astute guardian, Thomas Lee; the affable, motherly aunt, so well delineated by Edna Hopkins; and the pedantic suitor, Paul Farragher, filled their parts exceptionally well.
KANSAS WINS LAST GAME
---
Kansas closed the '08 base ball series with Missouri, with a record of four straight victories by winning from the Tigers by a score of 11 to 4.
BLACKMAR PRAISES PAPER.
Best in Eighteen Years and Did Much Good for Lawrence.
"The students' edition of the Lawrence Journal," said Professor Blackmar yesterday to his class in Sociology, "was the best paper printed in Lawrence for eighteen years. The good it has done for Lawrence in a sociological way is inestimable. The editors are to be congratulated."
Olympic Games Next Tuesday.
The annual olympic games originated by the University Y. M. C. A. will be pulled off Tuesday evening in the "gym." A relay race between the "longs" and the "shorts" and the "fats" and the "leans" will be one of the features. Juggling, clog dancing, and musical stunts by various fraternities will add to the pleasure. The games last year were the best attended stag event of the season.
Grant Harrington, '89, former editor of the Hiawatha Democrat, talked informally to the newspaper class students on Friday morning. He told of his experiences in securing law enforcement in his town by using his paper to give publicity to the evils of the town. He urged students to have a vigorous policy for any newspapers.which they might come to control.
Harrington Gives Talk.

KANSAS TAKES THIRD.
Wins 1908 Baseball Series from Missouri—Poor Playing.
By winning yesterday's slugging match from the Tigers, Kansas made it three straight and took the '08 base ball series from Missouri. The game was full of errors and long hits and would have suited a lover of the old time slugging festivals.
Kansas took the lead in the first and Missouri tied the score in the second. After this, first one team and then the other was ahead. Kansas took the lead in the seventh when six scores were gathered in from a bunch of brilliant plays by Carlson, Jennings, Angney, Gibbs, Rockerfeller, Harlan, and Doubleday. Missouri could not overcome this lead and the game was won.
Harlan was ineffective throughout the game. Missouri used three pitchers, none of them being able to fool the Kansas batsmen.
The feature of the game was the batting of Gibbs, who with a sprained ankle went in at the seventh and won the game with a double and a single. Jennings was the all around star. His stealing home in the fifth was the headiest piece of work seen on McCook this year.
The score:

Exciting Inter-School Meet.
Thursday morning there was an exciting "inter-school" track meet in front of the Chemistry building. The Pharmics and Engineers were principals, the events being the 50 yard dash and the high and low hurdles. Both sides claim victory and the pill makers asserst that if they had had their track suits the Engineers would not have had a look in.

A NEW CONVERT TO LAW AND ORDER
The following quotations taken from the Lawrence Journal of April 27 and May 14 show a transformation of opinion in regard to law enforcement that is truly remarkable. The first quotations were taken from the paper the day after the students' edition came out; the latter quotations are the expression of the paper after 500 Lawrence citizens had met and organized a law and order league. The Kansan congratulates the Journal on its conversion to the cause of law and order. The sting of past condemnations is almost taken away by the beautiful bouquets which the pusillanimous down town paper passes to the student in the issue of last Thursday.
"It was a mistake from any standpoint."- Lawrence Journal, April 27.
"The remarkable success that attended the efforts of the students ought to be improved." Lawrence Journal, May 14.
"They (the students) used bad judgment in making the most prominent feature of the paper the fact that University students have a habit of getting drunk on the east side." -Lawrence Journal, April 27.
"In common with the people of Lawrence the Journal congratulates the students in the great success that has attended their efforts. They deserve much praise."—Lawrence Journal, May 14.
"The cause of the silly move on the part of these students . . . may be laid down to youth and inexperience, so of course they will get over that some day."—Lawrence Journal, April 27.
May 14, the Lawrence Journal said of these inexperienced youths: "They hunted out what the officers of Lawrence have been unable to do and brought the offenders to justice."
"Lawrence is comparatively clean and it is the cleanest town in Kansas."-Lawrence Journal, April 27.
"We must make Lawrence cleaner than it is."—Lawrence Journal, May 14.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The agitation that has been going on at the State Agricultural College to have the word "Agricultural" eliminated from the title of the institution seems everywhere to be meeting with ridicule. It looks to the outside observer as if Manhattan was making a serious mistake and is liable to overshoot itself. The people at Manhattan should know that the great popularity the school at present enjoys over the state is due to the fact that it is a school supposed to train young men for the occupation that most Kansans think is the noblest of all occupations. Then again the people at Manhattan should realize that in after years, when the remembrance that the School at Manhattan was originally a farmers' school has died in the minds of Kansas people, some legislature may decide that it is folly to maintain two colleges in one state, and as the State University will always have the advantage over Manhattan, decide to combine the two and discom-

is the standard of the world. It has been formally adopted as the official ball of the National League for over thirty years and by thirty other professional bodies from one to twenty years. In the great world's championship games between the Chicago Nationals and Detroit Americans the Spalding National League Ball was used. The Spalding Official National League Ball is used by Yale, Harvard, Princeton and all prominent college teams. The soldiers and sailors in the United States Army and Navy use it exclusively.

BUILDING IS UNHEATED.
Engineers May be Deprived of New Home for a Year.—No Funds.
Lack of funds necessary to extend the heating tunnels from Robinson Gymnasium to the new Engineering building may delay its occupation for another year. The distance is only nine hundred feet, but a tunnel for that distance will cost several thousand dollars, and as there is no appropriation for that expenditure the building may remain idle till the next legislature meets. There are also no funds to pay for the pole line to carry the power for lighting.
"There is one way out of this difficulty," said Dean Marvin, and that is to use the boilers of the new power plant which will be located near the Engineering building."
The matter will be decided this summer. If this fails the Engineers will have to wait a year for their new home.
Dr. G. W. Jones Talks in Chapel.
Dr. G. W. Jones of Lawrence gave an interesting address in chapel yesterday on the necessities of a well rounded university life and the eccentricities of genius. He emphasized the point that broad culture, refinement, and educational advantages come by participating in every legitimate phase of University life. It is his opinion that the student will do the greatest good who is not content with genius, but improves the small opportunities around him. He advised students to be sane in matters of school life and take care of their health.
The Lawrence Lodge of Elks gave a farce last night at their club house based on the 'student exposure.' The well-known characters of the 'bottoms' were represented, including 'Aunt' Jane, 'Coaly' Jenkins, and 'Pap' Johnson. Kemp, the poet, and a reporter were burlesqued.

VOLUME IV
A LARGE CLASS
270 STUDENTS WILL BE GRADUATED THIS YEAR.
With 270 students in the graduating class, and a series of original and entertaining "stunts" by the seniors and alumni, the Commencement festivities at the University of Kansas promise to be a gala affair this year. The class is the second largest in the history of the school.
Governor Johnson To Give the Commencement Address—Robinson Gymnasium Dedication.
Edgar Y. Mullins, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, will preach the baccalaureate sermon, Sunday, June 7, the beginning of Commencement week. Attorney General Fred S. Jackson will give the alumni address Tuesday, June 9. On this day the big "stunts" by the senior class and alumni are pulled off. The senior farce in Marvin Grove, the big senior parade to McCook field, and the senioralumni baseball game are some of the things the unlucky undergraduates must miss.
Governor John A. Johnson, of Minnesota, will give the Commencement address proper.
One of the features of the week will be the dedication of Robinson Gymnasium. On this occasion old athletes of the school for years back will be present to witness the ceremonies. Chancellor Strong will make the address. Mrs. Governor Robinson will be present, and Professor F. W. Blackmar will respond for her.
C. M. Harger, dean of the Journalism School, spoke to the newspaper classes Monday morning on "Interviewing." He said that interviews may be easily secured from embryo statesmen who gather in Topeka. He mentioned ex-senator Peffer as the type of a man which a reporter delights to interview.
Harger Talks on Interviewing.
Chancellor Speaks in Kansas City.
Chancellor Strong will go to Kansas City tomorrow to address the Western Presbyterian conference which meets there this week. His subject will be "Religion in State Universities."
NUMBER 67
NO MASS MEETING HELD.
Chancellor Absent Part of Time Doesn't Approve of Plan.
The meeting which was called for this morning during chapel time to determine upon a permanent organization for student government was not held. The Chancellor was absent from the University till last evening and the committee failed to make arrangements for holding the meeting.
In speaking of the affair this morning, "Buster" Brown, chairman of the committee said, "I was unable to see the Chancellor till this morning. While he is not strictly in favor of the present movement, I think that he will give us some chapel time during the coming week."
Spoke on Historic Lawrence.
Prof. G. R. Crissman spoke in chapel Tuesday morning on "Historic Lawrence." He urged that the students should study the historical geography of Lawrence and told of the plans of the committee appointed by Chancellor Strong to secure markers for sights of war time interest. He mentioned several of the spots which the committee proposes to have marked.

TRACK MEET WAS CLOSE
Gutherie Won Mile—Lowers University Record.
The work of the Jayhawker track squad at Columbia Saturday was a surprise. After the Nebraskans had defeated Kansas 68 to 49 the Missouri-Kansas meet was conceded to the Tigers by at least twenty points but the Kansans put up a great fight and held the score down to 65 to 52.
Guthrie showed up in great form in the mile and won in a killing finish from Cleland of Missouri in the fast time of 4:38. This is two seconds faster than the K.U. record.
Cummins, in the two mile, set the pace all the way and although he was beaten two yards at the finish he clipped seven seconds off his University record.
The relay team, composed of Priest, Dennis, Martindell and Young, all of whom had been in one or more previous events won the mile relay from Missouri by a margin of one yard in the fast time of 3:32 1-5. This is as fast as any Missouri Valley team is running the distance.
Martindell and Bergen, new men, showed up well in the meet. Martindell took a first and a second and Bergen got a second to Priest's first in the half.
The weight men, always the main reliance of Kansas, fell down and lost the meet. Branham took the discus from Kansas at only 106 feet. Kurtz won the hammer at 122 feet, the distance the average high school athlete can make. Had the weight men done their part, Missouri would have won the meet by a much smaller margin.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
And still the matter of "Student Control" seems an elusive thing that is far off in the future. Juniors may give farces in which it is the central thing, seniors make it a feature of their play, the fraternities are going to debate on this thing of misty, visionary existence known as "student control." But where, oh where is the student control? A committee was appointed. They met and met and talked and had splits on weighty questions such as "woman's rights" and finally adopted a system for the establishment of a council. Then the big mass meeting of students came and there were thirty or forty enthusiastic students present. A big meeting was to be held in chapel this morning going on the assumption that students would attend at chapel time when there was nothing else to do. But alas, the faculty saw an opportunity to strike a finishing blow to this student control business which was even then tottering in the balance. The faculty refused to surrender their privilege to occupy the chapel, but insisted upon their historic rights of having one of their number make a speech to the students. And still the vague, uncertain—certainly unrealized student control breeze is in the air, but even its friends have begun to believe that it is built somewhat on the plan of a midnight dream.
Those few supersensitive youths who object to the word "agricultural" in the name of the state school at Manhattan do not seem to be getting much
At the present time the athletic authorities will recognize only the records made on McCook when making a list of the record holders. It is much more difficult to make record breaking time on strange athletic fields than it is on McCook and if an athlete cuts a few seconds off of a previous record he should be given the title of record holder no matter where he runs. Guthrie ran the mile two seconds faster at Columbia Saturday than the distance has ever been covered on McCook. By all that is just and right he should be given the title of University record holder for the mile run.
favorable comment from the press of the State on their plan to drop it. Every country editor knows a bunch of husky young fellows in his neighborhood who are not ashamed of being farmers and who he knows have the stuff in them of which the best citizens are made. Consequently the country press of the State has joined in "roasting" the aesthetic young men up at Manhattan who are so greatly pained by the mere suggestion of manual labor and contact with the soil.
Where is the promised reform in the "quiz" system that was promised just before the beginning of this semester? The question of changing the method of holding examinations was brought up then and discussed and the faculty decided that it was too late in the term to take any action. Examination week is almost here again and still nothing has been done. Well, when quiz week is several weeks off we don't need any methods of holding examinations, and when quiz week comes—well, then it is too late to arrange one, so there you have it.
The Senior play which comes Thursday and Friday night promises to be one of the best plays that have been presented in years. It has the advantage of being strictly original with the Senior play committee, of which R. L. Douglas is the chairman. It is full of clever hits on local people and that is what takes in a university play.
Well if the student council doesn't just now seem in a solvent condition, those who had a part in it should be consoled when they think of how much free advertising they have secured for the University in the paper over the state.

Many Trees on Campus.
Mr. Crocker intends to have one or more specimens of every forest tree native to Kansas some place on the campus. Among the larger trees which are already growing are, the locust, hackberry, sycamore, coffee-bean and several kinds of elms.
Under the direction of E. F. Crocker, superintendent of buildings and grounds, about two hundred young trees have been planted on the University campus this spring. These trees were secured from the woods near Lawrence and include hickory, cottonwood, mulberry, willow, ash, wild cherry, red-bud, bass-wood and three kinds of oak trees.
Large Order of Fire Clay.
The University has placed an import order to the amount of $3,000 with the Denver Fire Clay Co. This importation includes material for the chemistry and pharmacy departments and for the medical department at Rosedale. The consignment will come by way of Galveston or New Orleans and will be released here by a customs official from Kansas City instead of passing through the New York custom as has been the practice.

Seniors Revive Ancient Customs. Faculty in Smoke Fest.
The senior class this year will revive many interesting customs during commencement week festivities. Chief among these is the pipe of peace ceremony which was inaugurated way back in '92, the year the ivy vine was planted on the east side of Fraser hall. The seniors have ordered a large number of long stemmed pipes and will invite the faculty to participate in a smoke fest.
The old totem pole, a relic of the class of '93 will be rescued from oblivion and will be used in the ceremonies.
Another unique feature will be the Alumni umbrella parade. Gorgeous red and blue umbrellas decorated with the class numerals have been provided, under the gentle shade of which the visiting alumni will parade from Fraser Hall to the Gymnasium for the Alumni banquet, and then to McCook Field for the senior-alumni base ball game.
The senior flag raising will end the celebration.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 21, 1908.
SIGMA CHIS WON DEBATE
WILL HOLD EWING HERBERT CUP FOR A YEAR.
R. L. Douglas Argued for Student Control of Undergraduate Affairs.
The fourth annual inter-fraternity debate, held last night in Fraser Hall, was won by R. L. Douglas, representing the Sigma Chi fraternity. Douglas upheld the affirmative of the question, "Resolved, That student control of all undergraduate affairs is for the best interests of the University of Kansas."
After the decision of the judges was announced, the Ewing Herbert loving cup was given over to the Sigma Chis, to be held by them for one year.
Three years ago the Sigma Chis won the first debate for the cup, which since then has been won once by the Alpha Taus and once by the Betas. A fraternity must win three debates in order to keep the cup.
Prof. W. E. Higgins of the Law school presided at last night's debate. The judges were Prof. R. D. O'Leary, Prof. C. L. Becker, and Supt. H. B. Pears of Haskell Institute Only four fraternities took part, the Sigma Chis, represented by Roy Douglas; the Betas, by Tom Gowenlock; the Phi Psis, by James Sheppard; and the Phi Gams, by R. S. Pearson.
MRS. McCARTER TO SPEAK.
Author of "Cuddy's Baby" Will Be Heard in Chapel.
Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter author of the K. U. story book, Cuddy's Baby, that had such a sale last year at Christmas time, will be the speaker in chapel Friday morning. She will also speak to the newspaper classes on "Journalism by an Ignoramus," immediately after chapel. Mrs. McCarter is a graduate of the Indiana State Normal school and came to this country to accept a position in the Topeka High School. She has written several books, the most popular of which is Cuddy's Baby, a story centered around the life at K. U. The inspiration for this story came to Mrs. McCarter last fall at the K. U.-Washburn football game.

FIVE BIG SCHOOLS WILL CONTEST SATURDAY.
Kansas Expects to Take Relay.-
Choice Missouri Valley Athletes Entered.
Next Saturday afternoon on the Elm Ridge track in Kansas City the track squads of Kansas, Iowa, Drake, Ames, Nebraska, Washington and Missouri will compete in the first annual Missouri Valley Conference track meet.
One hundred and fifty of the best athletes in Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and Kansas will be in the big meet and it will be the first time that all the schools of this section of the country have entered into one great athletic carnival.
Kansas has no chance at all to get first place Saturday. The best that the Jayhawkers can hope for is fourth. The strength of Iowa, Drake and Ames is not definitely known but one of the three will probably take down the first honors.
There will be several heats in the hurdles and the dashes and Missouri will suffer thereby. Branham can not enter four events at Kansas City and the Tiger one man team will not show up as it does in a dual meet.
Kansas can not get more than twenty points out of the possible one hundred and twenty-six. Priest will run the quarter instead of the half and there will be no Jayhawker entries in the hundred or the two-twenty. No Kansan will compete in more than one event.
The Jayhawker ball squad goes to Topeka Friday for the return baseball game with Washburn College. The Congregationalists were beaten at the last meeting by the narrow margin of one score after a great ninth inning rally by Kansas.
Coach Hagerman's pupils are going to make a great bid for the relay. The time made at Columbia last week by the Kansas relay team was the fastest made in the Missouri valley for some time and any team that takes first from the Jayhawkers will have to cover each quarter in fifty-three seconds. Priest, Dennis, Martindell, and Young will be the relay men.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
There is an agitation at Colorado University to make a daily paper out of the weekly now there. At Missouri the weekly publication will in all probability next year be changed into a daily. The Washburn Review, a weekly, opposes this rapid change which is going on in college papers from weekly to daily issues. But it is the same change that came about in newspapers of the outside world some score of years ago. A weekly paper can not be other than a kind of literary magazine. The news it publishes is stale. Of course it may be soothing to some of the amateur literary people in school to see their efforts in type, but for ten cents one can purchase a magazine that contains more and better contemporary literary matter than all the college weeklies of the country combined. The news published in a weekly college paper if it is of importance has already been published. To tell the cruel truth about the matter it is really hard to find a good excuse for a college weekly paper existing.
It was reported that Bennett was robbed in the park, but there seems to be a general impression that Mr. Bennett was robbed in his imagination. The Lawrence World goes a little strong when it imputes to all the student body the practice of getting robbed for the purposes of extracting money from fathers at home. No doubt by this time Mr. Bennett would himself be willing to admit that he is a very minute part of the student body.
The advantage of a university training is exemplified in the following figure, which Hon. W.R. Stubbs employed in his letter to Senator Balie Wag-
gener this week: "The political pass and the convention and caucus system were the thirteen-inch guns in the hands of the politicians that seldom failed to bring down the political plums."
Those who are so strongly opposed to girls taking a part in the election of the members of the student council might bolster up their argument that girls are dishonest in politics by citing the recent athletic election at Barnard College where 325 girls cast 350 votes.
Betas Defeat Phi Psis.
The Betas defeated the Phi Psis in a fast game of base ball Tuesday afternoon. Only five innings were played on account of darkness.

A series of three games will be played by the Betas and Phi Gams to decide the championship. The winner of this series gets the loving cup given by the Schmelzer Arms Co., of Kansas City.

ROBBERY IN THE PARK.
Bandits, Armed and Desperate. Take Valuables from Bennett.
Two dusky hued sons of Africa were seen stealing stealthily eastward in the bright moonlight Monday evening groaning under the weight of two bulging gunny sacks. Their groans and labored breath attracted the attention of a Kansan reporter, who becoming suspicious of crooked work, stopped them and demanded an explanation. Glad of a chance to gain newspaper notoriety, they replied that they had robbed a law student, whose cognomen was Howard Bennett. According to the account given by the villains, they enticed him into the park by flattering him on his pretty clothes. Once under the sheltering shade of a sycamore tree, they shoved a toy pistol in his face and forthwith began the work of extracting from his person sundry diamonds, stick pins, cameos, and jewelry of all sorts, not to mention a vast sum of money. The reporter estimated the booty to be worth at least $4,975.65 counting $500 in bills Fortunately for the victim of the outrage, the robbers overlooked a $900 diamond and a $700 watch which were hidder in the recesses of one of the owner's many pockets.
Seeing a policeman standing near, the reporter let them go.

es, 60 pages; and the remainder of the book is taken up with miscellaneous matter.
The book is dedicated to W. R. Stubbs. It contains a number of witty and beautiful poems, one by Harry Kemp, entitled "The Land that God Forgot." The book contains a large number of cartoons and a number of snap shots suggestive of scenes on the campus on a sunny day.
Some of the cartoon work was done by outsiders, but most of it is the production of students of the University.
In the joke department not a few students and faculty members come in for hot shots. One interesting feature of this is a burlesque of the minutes of fraternity meetings at each fraternity and sorority where the weaknesses and peculiarities of each fraternity are exposed in a merciless but jovial manner. There are also some fables in this department that rank along with the hot ones. Proverbs, parodies, calendars, limericks, roasts make every page of this department above the ordinary. The book will not be on sale except at the Senior play until Saturday.
The book has been issued at a cost of over 2500 dollars. Harold V. Bozell is the business manager and Carl H. Young is the editor.
Those who assisted Mr. Young and Mr. Bozell in the work are: B. J. Sheridan, Associate editor; Rebecca Moody, Evadine Laptad, Alma Manley, Kate Reynolds, Literary editors; Emil Brunner, Law editor; Roy Roberts, Athletic editor; Sam Forter, Engineering editor; John Harvey, Medic editor; Wallace Hovey Organization editor; Burton Sears, Eleanor Bleakley, Fraternity editors; Roy Douglas, Art editor.

In addition to the address of the evening, "Early Geodetic Work," by Dean Marvin, the time was further given to the initiation of the four newly elected students, Leslie Kenoyer, W. J. Lank, Thos. Hambleton and H. A. Kohman. Mr. Kohman spoke on "Explosive Metals of the Platinum Group;" Mr. Kenoyer's subject was "The Earliest Work in Science;" Mr. Hambleton discussed "Impedence in Iron Conductors;" and Mr. Lank talked about "Investigations of Steam Nozzles for Turbines."

REGATTA HELD ON THE KAW
WATER SPORTS NEW FEATURE AT UNIVERSITY.
Spectacular Tilting Match in Canoes.—71 Entered in Contests.
A crowd of eight hundred people on the banks of the Kaw this morning witnessed the first regatta ever held by the University of Kansas sportsmen. Seventy-one entries were booked, and the contests ranged from boat racing to boom walking. The river was in excellent condition as the waves were not high enough to interfere with the sport. No accidents occurred, except the upsetting of canoes in the tilting contests. The most spectacular event was the tilting match in which Leland and Schwinn tied against Asher and Johnson. The boom walking match was a close second. This sport is an attempt at walking a slippery pole which is placed over the water. No one succeeded in taking more than a few steps.
Events and winners are:
Quarter mile boat, singles,
7 entries; 1, Bosse; 2, Mosher.
Time 2:22.

PLAY WAS GOOD
SENIORS MADE HIT WITH THE NAWAB OF ZU ZU.
Rebecca Moody Stars as the Princess Uneeda—Roberts and Frickelton Did Well.
The Nawab of Zu Zu, the musical comedy of the senior class, scored a decisive success before a crowded house Thursday and Friday evenings. The play was enthusiastically received at both performances, and was one of the best ever given by University students.
The play opened with a meeting of the student council, in which the coming of the Nawab and his daughter was announced. The interest centered in the experiences of the royal party at the University of Kansas. The performance was rich with jokes and "take offs" of local interest. Professors and students alike were "roasted" without mercy.
Rebecca Moody as Princess Uneeda was the star of the cast, and interpreted her part with great success. Roy Roberts as the Nawab played his difficult part like a professional. Frank Frickleton, the amusing Professor Nabisco, made a hit with his college clothes and manners. J.B.Rieman made a good second for Professor Carruth. Acting the part of Mrs.Featherweight,the dormitory matron,"Billy" Miller won the applause of the evening.
The chorus with the various features of pioneer girls, cow boys, merry widows and dormitory girls received repeated encores and did much to make the play a pleasing and successful event.
Democrats Fail to Appear.
The Republican club met in Green Hall this morning to meet the Democrats in debate on the question of "Trusts." The latter failed to appear, and after waiting a reasonable time, the Republicans declared the debate won by default.
The Phi Delts will give a dinner Monday evening in honor of Professor W. C.Abbott, who severs his connection with the University at the end of this term. The local alumni members of the fraternity will be guests.
Dinner for Professor Abbott.
Catalogs to High Schools.
Between 2500 and 3000 catalogs of the University were sent to the high school seniors of the state. The newspapers of the state have also received catalogs. Bulletins announcing commencement have been mailed to the alumni.
BRILLIANT FETE
MAGNIFICENT PAGEANT GIVEN ON CAMPUS.
A Large Parade of Various Characters-Nelle Shearer May Queen.
One of the most brilliant spectacles ever presented by University students was seen this afternoon on the campus when the May Games were inaugurated.
The parade formed at Robinson Gymnasium was composed of many varied characters. Four musicians headed the procession followed by little girls and maids of honor for the May Queen. Nelle Shearer, the Queen of May, mounted on a white pony, guarded by rustics, occupied the position of honor. Little boys acting as pages announced her approach. Following the Queen were wandering minstrels, May pole dancers, actors from Pyramus and Thisbe, milkmaids, chimney sweeps, and a number of odd characters.
Marching around the campus in front of Frasesr Hall the procession halted in front of the throne, where a pretty coronation ceremony took place. After the crowning, the wandering ministrels sang. The prettiest part of the performance, the may pole dances, followed. Four poles representing the sororities of the school and one for the University were wound with ribbon by a crowd of girls. The dancing around the poles and the effect of the many colored ribbons made a decidedly pleasing sight.
The Pyramus and Thisbe performance by members of the Beta fraternity followed the pole dancing. This dealt with the experiences of two lovers who meet a tragic death. The milk-maid dance was the next feature. Six girls dressed as milk-maids and carrying milk pails danced round a cow. Martin Poindexter, as the jester, furnished amusement for the audience with his odd make-up and boisterous announcements of the events.
After the performance, supper was served on the campus. The games were given under the auspices of the Y.W.C.A., and were started by Professor C.H.Gray.
Judge Smart to Speak.
Judge C. A. Smart, of Ottawa will speak to the Law School practice court on "The Lawyer and the Trial Court" next Wednesday afternoon.

KANSAS LOSES AT TOPEKA
SENSATIONAL FOURTEEN INNING GAME.
Harlan Was in Great Form—Jennings Made Home Run in Last.
In a sensational fourteen inning game at Topeka yesterday, Benny Young's diamond artists lost to Washburn by the close score of 3 to 2. Through thirteen innings of master playing neither side was able to make a run. The game was the fastest of the season and almost errorless ball was played. Time and time again hits that were labeled two baggers were garnered in and the players robbed of scores. Kansas had several chances to score, but failed in the critical moment. Washburn had only one man on third until the final round of the fray.
Both pitchers were in league form. Harlan did excellent work until the fourteenth when the strain of the battle weakened him, and he allowed the three runs for Washburn. Kansas got six hits from Lornberg, and allowed the Topeka men only three. Fifteen of the Congregationalists fanned the gentle zephyrs and twelve of the Jayhawkers followed suit. The feature of the day for Kansas was the home run in the fourteenth by Jennings.
Van Cleave played right-field in the place of Carlson.
The score:

THE LAST SAD RITES
The Atchison Globe recently printed an editorial condemning the proposed student government in the University of Kansas. Possibly no movement ever started in the University has been as little understood as that of the students' council. Just where to place the blame for this condition is rather a complicated matter. The committee of ten appointed at the first mass meeting presumably gathered ideas from other schools. A working plan was said to have been originated. The apparent lack of interest on the part of the student body and the small attendance at the last mass meeting destroyed any hopes of presenting the plans of the committee intelligently before the public. It is definitely known that one of the ideas was to regulate the social life of the school. This is need badly enough, and the students are the only ones who can bring about the desired reform. Faculty supervision over social affairs would never succeed. The disputed point, or rather the idea that caused alarm, was that of athletic control. With an intelligent consideration of this question, some satisfactory solution could have been reached. Enough, perhaps too much, has been said. Too little has been done. The pet scheme of the year like many others rests quietly in the land of oblivion.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Nawab of Zu Zu, presented by the senior class Thursday and Friday evenings, deserves the highest praise. The original musical comedy was one of the most successful plays ever staged by a University class. The leading characters were well delineated, and the chorus with its many interesting changes showed no traces of amateur work. The class of 1908 is to be congratulated on its last production in the social life of the University.
The failure of the plans for student government, the failure
to set aside a students' day in chapel this year, the failure to make the proposed reform in examinations for this term illustrate only too well the terrible pace of University life. Surely it is not lack of initiative on the part of students and faculty that these worthy ideals met with dismal failure. It is to be regretted that the present social and intellectual requirements of the University leave no time for serious thinking.

AN OUTSIDER'S VIEW.
The students of Kansas University at Lawrence, have started a movement to obtain student control of the University; that is, to make the student body self-governing, instead of being under the control of the faculty. Already this sentiment has reached the mass meeting stage, and reports are being received from other schools where the student control is in force. To the average man outside the colleges, who knows little of frats, class spirit, and alma maters, a move such as is contemplated by K. U., is foolish, to put it mildly. There seems too little discipline, and too much student control in our colleges and universities, as it is. And as able an educator as Chancellor Strong, head of the Kansas institution, and who certainly has its best interests at heart, is also opposed to the movement. It is true that this is a democratic country, and self government is very dear to the people. Still, with all regard for the intelligence of the student body, a college is necessarily different from a nation, a state or a municipality. The students have passed the age of the birch rod, and other forms of corporal punishment, but they are still, for the most part, only boys and girls. Possibly they possess something more than the average education, as it is reckoned in books, but they have much to learn of many things, including what is best for themselves. On the other hand, the state selects as instructors men who have training particularly fitting them for their work, including school government. That the government may not always prove satisfactory to the governed, is likely, that being true of all governments, but changes should only be sought when likely to prove beneficial. Kansas University is a very creditable school for such a comparatively new state, and it is growing. Some of its students have already attained national prominence, while many thousands have become useful and intelligent citizens. For the sake of the school, and for the sake of the state, it is hoped the present student body will not inaugurate a change which, at best, is nothing more than a student fad.

The Spalding Official National League Ball
is the standard of the world. It has been formally adopted as the official ball of the National League for over thirty years and by thirty other professional bodies from one to twenty years. In the great world's championship games between the Chicago Nationals and Detroit Americans the Spalding National League Ball was used. The Spalding Official National League Ball is used by Yale, Harvard, Princeton and all prominent college teams. The soldiers and sailors in the United States Army and Navy use it exclusively. In fact it is in universal use wherever base ball is played.

Topeka Author and Lecturer Gave Interesting Talk Friday Morning.
Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter, of Topeka, author of a number of interesting books and stories, spoke in chapel Friday morning on "Temperate Ideals." She said there were few people of great genius and the majority of the human race had to do the work of a common sort. She believes that performing the small things with a cheerful spirit is better than having great ideals and doing nothing.
After chapel Mrs. McCarter talked to the newspaper classes on "Journalism by an Ignoramus." Under this unworthy title, she told the class many of her experiences in that line of work. She advised the students to picture the humorous of life and leave out the gloomy, to realize the importance of a variety of words and to avoid stock expressions.

AMES WON MEET
WIN CONTEST EASILY BY FIFTY-TWO POINTS.
Missouri Took Second Place Parker Broke High Jump Record —Tied for First at 5 ft. 10 in.
Iowa State College overwhelmingly defeated all opponents in the Missouri Valley Conference meet in Kansas City Saturday by fifty-two points. Missouri won second place with twenty-two points. Drake took third, Washington fourth, Kansas and Nebraska tied for fifth, and Iowa brought up the rear with only eight points.
The track at Elm Ridge was in poor condition and rain fell during the progress of the contest. The time in nearly all the track events was slow, the mile was done in 5:10 3-5; the two mile in 11:45; the half in 2:17 2-5. For Kansas, Parker tied for first in the high jump. Guthrie got third in the mile, Dennis second in the quarter, Newbold second in the low hurdles, and Cummins third in the two mile. These eleven points were all the Jayhawkers could secure.
The high jumping contest was the prettiest and keenest fought event of the meet. At five feet eight inches Parker, Knode of Nebraska, and Mitchell of Washington were the only entries still qualifying. The three men cleared five feet, nine, and at five, ten tied for first. Parker was representing Kansas for the last time and finished four years of consistent service by raising the University high jump record one and one-quarter inches.
Newbold was a surprise in the hurdles and Dennis ran a great race in the quarter. The short strides of Cummins and Guthrie were handicapped by the mud in the long distances.

KANSAS LOST
JAYHAWKERS MET FIRST DE FEAT ON McCOOK.
The Men From St. Louis Outhit and Outclassed the Kansans— Last Game Today.
NUMBER 70
Yesterday afternoon the Jayhawkers met the first defeat they have suffered on the home grounds this season at the hands of the Washington aggregation of fast baseball players. The score was 3 to2. The St. Louisans played a steady game and outhit and outfielded Kansas. Well timed hits and errors by Harvey and Van Cleave gave the visitors three runs.
Washington scored one in the first on a couple of hits and an error, but in the second Kansas took the lead, sending two men across the pan on three raps and a sacrifice. The scoring was stopped until the seventh when Washington took advantage of a costly error and drove in two runs.
Both teams played fair ball and there were many good plays. Rodenberg, the Washington catcher, was applauded for reaching over the barbed wire fence enclosing the bleachers and taking a high foul. Doubleday made a fast run-in on a Texas leaguer to center and though he fell flat held on to the sphere. In the sixth Hoffman fanned three men straight, and Angney stopped a hot grounder in the ninth.
The game this afternoon decides the series between the two schools, each team having one game to its credit.

Blackmar on Graduate School.
Professor F. W. Blackmar, dean of the Graduate School, spoke in chapel this morning in regard to the work in that department. The enrolment this year is one hundred and three. Twenty-six degrees were granted last year. He said that real scholarship in a special direction could only be secured by the student who devotes the extra year for original research after he has secured the A.B. degree. He believes that the Graduate School should be emphasized to prevent the University from becoming merely a preparatory school for eastern universities.

Sunday morning at "Dolly" Graeber's boat landing some University boys helped fish out bottles containing notes sent down from above after the river rose. One was a postal card containing three illegible names. The bottle had a strong smell of something besides water, which probably accounts for the poor writing. Manhattan, Kans., was plainly written. The other bottle contained a leaf of a memorandum book on which the names of several boys were written. It was sent from Rossville, Kansas.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Now is the time to see that arrangements are made for the better handling of the freshmen that come to the University next year. Some plan should be decided on right away that will provide for the more cordial reception of the green ones who blow in from the farms and hamlets of Kansas. It is a difficult matter to decide just how to go about this. Who shall see to it that the freshmen are welcomed to the University with more cordiality? Every organization in the school can do something along the line of making the University a more pleasant place for the first few weeks of the school year, but the Kansan believes there should be some organized effort made by the University to care for the new arrivals for a few days at the beginning of the year at least. An information bureau should be established. A number of guides should be on hand to show the new comers about and they should be accorded a hearty welcome in all departments of the University both by faculty and students.
Please notify the business manager if any member of the staff refuses to receive your unpaid subscription.-The Minnesota Daily.
And is it possible that the students at Minnesota are so free from the taint of graft that they have to be watched to keep them from refusing money that belongs to them. Well the Kansan doesn't want to put on any airs of that kind. It has a better proposition than ever to offer. If any of the 170 subscribers who owe the Kansan one dollar will find a member of the board who refuses to take
the money the Kansan will give him a clear receipt for his unpaid bill.
The staff that made up the annual board are to be congratulated on the Jayhawker that they got out. It is not making an exaggerated statement to say that the class of 1908 put out the best book ever issued by a graduating school in the University and it is doubtful whether any school in the West can show a book that in contents and make-up will compare with the souvenir edition of the Jayhawker.
The originators of the regatta and the May fete deserve much credit for producing, at this time of the year, two of the most novel affairs ever witnessed at the University of Kansas. The water contests, decidedly new in University sports, can be made a crowd-attracting feature next year. The May games were too magnificent to be dropped by the wayside. Both events should be made annual affairs.
Only Ten More Need Apply.
My announcement for students desiring summer employment has been answered so heartily that I now ask for only ten more to fill up the quota required. Twenty of the best K. U. offers have already signed for the summer. No student can make less than $50 to $100 per week. Call and see me at once. T. T. Blakey, Fairfax Hotel.
To Teach in Gulf Biologic Station.
Prof. F. H. Billings will leave Friday for the Gulf Biologic Station, located at the mouth of the River Calcasieu, near Cameron, La. Professor Billings will be one of the instructors at that station during the summer session. His classes, the last week, will be met by Prof. W. C. Stevens and Mr. Starin.

is the standard of the world. It has been formally adopted as the official ball of the National League for over thirty years and by thirty other professional bodies from one to twenty years. In the great world's championship games between the Chicago Nationals and Detroit Americans the Spalding National League Ball was used. The Spalding Official National League Ball is used by Yale, Harvard, Princeton and all prominent college teams. The soldiers and sailors in the United States Army and Navy use it exclusively. In fact it is in universal use where base ball is played.

Former Student Gives Specimens from Philippines.
Professor C. E. McClung has recently received an addition to the museum collections consisting of specimens collected in the Philippines by Lieutenant Clarence L. Cole, A. B.'01, during his two years residence in those islands as assistant surgeon in the hospital service. The shipment contained the skeletons of five large bats, pieces of coral, and four hundred and fifty sea shells of various colors and sizes.
Doctor Cole has been stationed at Fort Thomas, Kentucky, since his return to America last fall but the specimens came to Washington in government ships and he was able to have them forwarded to Kansas only a short time since. In a former shipment Doctor Cole furnished some large lizard skeletons for the museum.
Entertains Chemistry Faculty.
Professor Bailey entertained the chemistry faculty at his home Friday evening. The souvenirs were pictures of the old and new chemistry buildings. Part of the evening was spent in examining records of the early meetings of the chemical club and the old University science club. Two out of town guests were present, Dr. L. M Powell, of Topeka; and C. C. Dennie, of Baker University Dr. Powell was the first student instructor after Professor Bailey took charge of the chemistry work. At that time, besides having charge of the chemistry proper, Professor Bailey taught Pharmacy, Materia Medica and Minerology with the help of one assistant. Since then the chemistry department has increased its faculty to eighteen members including five fellows. Mr Dennie will be a fellow in chemistry next year.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME IV.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 28, 1908.
WON LAST GAME
KANSAS GOT TWO OF THREE FROM WASHINGTON.
Kansas Can Now Claim the Championship of Missouri Valley Baseball Teams.
Tuesday afternoon the Jayhawkers turned the tables on the Washington ball squad, winning the game 5 to 4 and the series with two games out of the three. By defeating Washington Kansas put herself in line for the championship of the Missouri Valley.
Ben Young's band of diamond heroes owes its victory to one of those hurricane ninth inning rallies that characterize the Jayhawkers. With the score 4 to 2, with Washington in the lead in the last of the ninth, Angney got to first on an infield rap, Van Cleave won a home on the team with a two-bagger scoring Angney, Rockefeller got one base on his tap over second base and both runners scored on a wild throw to the plate after Harlan had bunted. Kansas had three runs and the game.
The Jayhawkers were the first to score. They got a run in the fourth on an error and a hit. In the sixth Washington put two men over, each side got one in the seventh and Washington made another score in the eighth.
The pinch hitting of Van Cleave, who is playing short until Jennings' arm rounds into shape, was a feature of the game. Doubleday made a great catch at center and robbed Washington of a two-bagger. Hardaway, Washington's center fielder, ran in on a Texas leaguer and caught it right down at the grass roots.
Both pitchers were effective during most of the game, especially when men were on bases.
The score:
R.H.
Washington—0 0 0 0 0 2 1 1 0-4-8
K. U. -0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 3-5-8
Batteries: Hardaway and Rodenberg; Harlan and Rockerfeller.
St. Marys Tomorrow.
Tomorrow the St. Marys ball team will play Kansas on McCook. St. Marys defeated the Jayhawkers 3 to 2 a few weeks ago. The game is called for 3:15.
Thespians Elect Officers.
Tuesday evening the Thespians Dramatic Club elected the following officers for the ensuing year: Edward E. Haney, president; George R. Hiatt, vice-president; Maurice Allendoerfer, business manager; Hazel Allison, secretary.
FRESHMEN ARE STARS.
Make Enviable Record in Base Ball—Lose Two out of Ten.
In a one sided game at Lexington, Missouri, Monday, the freshman base ball team won from the Wentworth Military Academy by a score of 18 to 2.
Tuesday they were beaten for the second time this season by the Thirteenth Infantry at Fort Leavenworth by a score of 4 to 0. Burdick was in the box but his curves were ineffective against the soldiers. This is the team which the 'Varsity beat early in the season by the close margin of one point, the score being 1 to 0.
The freshmen have done star work all spring, and promise plenty of candidates to fill the vacancies of this year's veterans. Out of ten games played, they have lost only two, one to the Frankfort high school and one to the Thirteenth Infantry. The individual records of the men are good.

SCHOOL ENDS THURSDAY.
Only Four Days of Quizz Week. Faculty Decides Tuesday.
At a meeting held Tuesday afternoon, Chancellor Strong acting for the Regents, granted the recommendation of the faculty that the work of the University close Thursday, June 4. Last term the movement to reform the present quizz system was started, but nothing accomplished. The question was taken up in the last meeting, but the faculty could not agree on a definite plan. The holiday was decided on as a substitute. This will shorten the strain of quizz week and give the instructors more time to grade the papers. Next year a more complete reform will be established.
John Ise Gives Recital.
John Ise, of the Fine Arts School, will give his graduating recital this evening in University hall. The orchestra will play his accompaniments. Some of his own compositions will be played.
Guy Mosher and Milton Miller have been selected by Miss Carrie Watson as the two new men on the library staff for next year.

--when they are prosperous as they have been they are willing to spend a few dollars on their state institutions. Bill Hackney seems to have forgotten that he himself has had two nephews to graduate from the school that he thinks has been imposing upon the state. He forgets that the people of his county have a score of students attending the University and incidentally it might be a good idea for some of the Cowley county delegation to call on Mr. Hackney about June 10 and straighten him out as regards the institution that he calls by the new name of "Lawrence University."
LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY AND BILIOUS HACK- NEY
In the Arkansas City Daily Traveler away down in Cowley county appears this announcement made by W. P. Hackney in a lengthy statement to the people of Cowley county in which he announces himself for the state senate: "I will pay my respects to the organized biennial raids upon the State treasury, and incidentally to the Lawrence University, that has procured appropriations out of the state treasury in the last three sessions to the amount of more than sixteen hundred thousand dollars, and in connection with the other educational institutions of Kansas is secretly, but surely undermining every sectarian college in the state."
Old Bill Hackney was showing some strangers around the town of Winfield one day when they came upon a building owned by him on the front of which were the initials W. P. H. Hackney had secured the building in some way of which he was not very proud. "What do those letters stand for," inquired one of the visitors of Bill. "Those letters stand for, 'William Played Hell,'" replied the boss of Cowley county. And it would seem that William is still playing at the same old game. True there are a couple of little obscure colleges down Hackney's way and of course that accounts for the attitude of the senatorial aspirant. But we have an idea that the state legislature knew what it was doing when it voted the money for the University and the people of Kansas generally know what their legislature is doing. It didn't take any lobbying, or unfair methods of graft, or political pulls to get the legislature to vote every cent it has voted. The people of Kansas believe in education and

It has seemed to the Kansan that it would be altogether the proper thing for the University to take an interest in politics. The University should not line up behind any party but should always exert its influence on the side of right. There are men running for county offices in Douglas county now who are pledged to the whiskey element in case they are placed in office.
They are making a desperate fight for their places. Is it the proper thing for the University to stand by and see such men put in office?
Myers Hall for Y. M. C. A.
The University Y. M. C. A. will have its headquarters in Myers Hall. The special classes for each organization will be conducted as they have been in the past. The reading rooms and the library at Myers Hall will be thrown open to the members of the Y. M. C. A. and to their friends. In speaking of the matter Secretary Hagerman, said "In absence of a central Y.M.C.A.building,the students need a meeting place. We hope to make Myers Hall the headquarters for all student activities."

Prisoner Breaks Down Under Long Strain.
HAMLET TRIAL ENDED.
The trial of Hamlet, the notorious character who was arrested some time ago for the alleged murder of his father, ended this afternoon in the University of Kansas court room. Vigg and Stryker for the State made impassioned talks against the defendant. Eaton and Gaskill for the defense argued long and eloquently in behalf of their client. Some exciting testimony was given by various witnesses of the Law School who were said to have been with Hamlet the night the crime was committed.
After showing remarkable nerve during the long weeks of waiting, the prisoner at last gave way to his feelings this afternoon and wept bitterly. He vehemently protested his innocence, and had to be taken from the room for medical attention. He has gained some notoriety during the trial by persistently claiming to be a prince of the royal house of Denmark.
The jury is still out. A verdict will probably be reached tomorrow morning.
