JAYHAWKERS 23
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 22, 1907.
WASHINGTON U WON BOTH GAMES ON McCOOK.
Monday 6 to 0 and Yesterday 4 to 3-Off Days for Kansas-Many Costly Errors.
The unexpected happened. After two shutout games at St. Louis, both by large scores, no one even dreamed of Washington University winning from Captain Brooken's victorious proteges, but win the St. Louis lads did, and not once but twice. The score of that first awful slaughter on Monday was 6 to 0 and of the second on Tuesday 4 to 3 with Washington holding the larger end of both contests.
It was simply a case of off days for the Kansas team, with dumb base-running, hitless hitting and costly errors aiding materially in the scoring. Washington on the other hand had the fastest aggregation of ball tossers seen on the local field this season and Kansas was simply outplayed in each game.
Jennings held forth in the box in Monday's game, holding Washington down to six hits. He was not as steady as usual, however, and gave several bases on balls at unfortunate times. His support, however, was miserable. Every man on the Kansas squad damaged his fielding average except Angney and Young, with most of the bobbles coming at the crucial points. Gill twirled a splendid game for Washington.

Kansas, Hoffman and Brookens;
Washington, Hardaway and Roden-
baugh.
Dumb base running and the lack of a pinch hitter lost Tuesday's game with a generous helping of course of several juicy errors. Hoffman, last year's star, was back in the box for the first time this season on the home grounds and with the exception of the third inning handed out a puzzling assortment. Eleven men in all fanned during the game and the hits were all scattered in separate innings. Angney was the star with the stick, securing a single and a two bagger.
The score:

Dr. Burdick Gave Excellent Chapel Talk Yesterday.
ON BEING A GENTLEMAN.
Professor Burdick, of the Law school, gave an interesting and practical talk in chapel Tuesday morning on "Address, Courtesy and Good Manners." He emphasized the statement that true courtesy comes from the heart, and considered gentleness and gentlemanly kindness one of the greatest elements of success. Throughout his address he appealed for gallantry in the fullest sense of the word and declared that while a debt becomes outlawed after a period of years according to law, yet the statute of limitations never falls upon a gentleman.
John Ise to be Director.
Monday night John Ise was elected director of the mandolin club for next year. Under the direction of Heim Goldman the mandolin club has been doing really fine work and the vacancy left by his graduation was hard to fill. Mr.Ise is an experienced leader and a versatile musician, and will no doubt develop a fine club next year.
Recital by Miss Hodgson
A graduating piano recital was given last evening in Fraser Hall by Miss Charlotte Hodgson. She was assisted by Mr. Herbert Springer, baritone.

To Whom it May Concern.
THE SENIOR PLAY
WILL BE PRESENTED TOMORROW BY CAST OF 24.

Miss Heizer Will Have Charge of Chorus—Special Scenery and Costumes—Large Seat Sale.
Tomorrow night the play committee of the class of 1907 will present the thirteenth annual senior play, which bears the jawbreaking title "Cerebrotenantum." The twenty-four people of the cast have worked long and hard on their parts and everything is in readiness to present a creditable performance to the crowd which will fill the Bowersock opera house.
The senior play this year is somewhat different from the ordinary senior performance in that it does not deal with local people. The characters are all original. There is no danger of being "stung." What the mammoth title signifies will not be known until the curtain rises, but some have guessed that a "brainstorm" has something to do with the plot.
A chorus that has many original, new and catchy hits will be under the direction of Miss Heizer. The management has provided a large amount of special scenery and the costuming will be of the finest.
The seat sales so far have been good. Nearly every seat for the first performance has been sold and a large number for the second night. Friday night will be junior night, and the juniors will see the show at the invitation of the senior class.
