The Methodist boys at Baker gathered up a few hats from the Kansas visitors last night. If they have a second hand store they will have a little more change to put in the collection box Sunday morning.
The Wisconsin legislature is considering a bill to keep college students out of politics and to put an end to student political machines. LaFollette's reform wave is certainly bearing fruit in undreamed of places.
The fraternities at the University have shown the proper spirit in severing their relations with the Theta Nu Epsilon. At the meeting of the "frat" presidents with the Board of Regents the feeling was unanimous for the step taken.
William J. Bryan spoke a few weeks past at Ann Arbor, last week at Arkansas University, and will address West Virginia University the 19th, and yet Kansas bordering his home State has never heard the distinguished speaker. There are a score of men of national prominence lecturing before the colleges of the country this spring. Why not one of these speakers at Kansas?
The freshman class seems to have forgotten that there was a football team that played through an "ever-victorious" season last fall bearing the name of this class. Last year's class honored their undefeated team with the present of a jersey bearing the class numerals. Three hundred loyal freshmen could by contributing fifteen cents each raise forty-five dollars which would buy fifteen jerseys. The team would appreciate this honor and the class should at least consider the proposition.
The baseball team is certainly making a record on its southern trip, that the students can feel elated over. Five victories, three of them shut outs, and only two defeats, both by the smallest of margins, is the standing of the team up to date,
and only three more games to play. Already the Tigers at Columbia have begun to fear and tremble over the prospects for their two clashes with the victorious Jayhawkers next Monday and Tuesday. If only Captain Brookens' squad can win both of the games from Missouri, well the Nebraska celebration will be forgotten.
The victory over Baker university in the debate last evening was all the more glorious in that it came as a great surprise. For years our sister institution has been carrying off the laurels in the debates, so regularly, that a victory for Kansas, seemed almost too good to be true. The members of the Kansas team, Woodie Jacobs, Clyde Commons, and Sandor Vigg worked hard and faithfully in preparing their arguments which gave Kansas the victory last evening and they deserve the hearty congratulations and thanks of every student in the university. The only pity is that the debating council and the student body as a whole did not support the team in a more liberal manner. Only forty students accompanied the boys to Baker while at least there should have been three hundred loyal Jayhawkers to cheer the team on to victory. Under these discouraging circumstances the three men who won the victory for Kansas, deserve all the more credit for their excellent work.
