The "Prom" was surely the social event of the year, and the farce was the feature of the evening.
There was a great change in the appearance of the social stars of the junior class between six and eight o'clock.
If any one has had any ideas of the infallability of faculty members, such ideas were surely dispelled by the junior farce last night.
The Robinson Gymnasium fills a long felt need. The University now has a place where there is room for all in social and athletic circles.
The juniors won the lacrosse championship Thursday by defeating the freshmen 10 to 1 in the final game. This gives the juniors the championship for three years.
Dates for social affairs or athletic events are so numerous now-a-days that lessons must take a back seat. Why can't our teachers understand.
The lecture of Charles Scott to the freshmen journalists was timely in starting the budding pencil shovers out for jobs. Several members of the journalism class have landed in offices of city dailies.
The cramming season is now on. Those trying out for the P. S. B. begin to make friends with the "guns" in their classes and, when the parasite graft don't work, these unfortunates are forced to spend the time between social events and classes "bugging" for the approaching quizzes.
At six the men working in old clothes that would make a "hit" in a minstrel show; but at eight, Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of them.
The kindness of contractor Nadelhoffer in allowing the juniors the use of the gymnasium at his own risk is highly appreciated by the class. If the building had been burned, he would have been the loser as it has not yet been turned over to the University.
The number of commencement addresses now being delivered throughout the state by members of the faculty shows the increasing appreciation of the University in the education of Kansas. More and more our institution is taking the lead in every phase of education and grows into closer connection with the schools.
The batting averages of the Jayhawkers are at least ten per cent higher than the league batters. Angney leads the Kansas team with 377 as compared with the leader of the "Blues" of K.C.at 317. One thing that the Jayhawkers do better than other college teams is to hit. Keith and Hyatt of Arkansas are terrors to such teams as Drury and Missouri, but they were pie for the Crimson and Blue ball "strikers."
The Graduate Club will meet Wednesday evening, May 22, at the home of Miss Griffin, 645 Connecticut street.
A. R. Strauf, civil engineer '04, was here Thursday and Friday. He has been employed in Mexico since graduation.
