May 28, Missouri Valley Meet May 28—K. U.Oklahoma. Tennis. May 28, Regatta on the Kaw May 31-June 5, Final Examinations. The regatta which will be held Saturday is one of the new University events which should be encouraged. With a fine stretch of river near at hand there is every opportunity to make water sports an important part of University athletics. Special interest attaches to the regatta, which will be held Commencement week. The one held last year was one of the finest and most spectacular entertainments given to the visiting alumni. The remarkable string of University records broken or equaled in track athletics this year in itself constitutes a great record for Coach W. O. Hamilton. The past year is the first in which track athletics ever received adequate attention, and the good showing made as a result of it is a matter of gratification to the entire University. Track athletics has been of an unusually high grade in the Missouri Valley this year and Kansas has made a showing to be proud of. The final report of the finance committee on the receipts of the Gala Day shows that nearly $450 was cleared for the Women's Student Government scholarship fund. This is the most notable addition made to the University loan fund for many years. Everybody is hoping that the rosy-hued predictions will come true that Kansas will actually get away with the Missouri Valley track meet in Des Moines Saturday.

However, Heil wishes to assure the seniors that their orders will be attended to and received here in time for the Commencement exercises. ELECTED OFFICERS.

We All Know the sweet girl graduate--- and she's a joy forever---but what about the young man graduate? He, too, wants to look as well as possible on graduation day----and he will, too, if he'll simply get inside one of our cleverly designed suits of rich blue serge, black thibet, or dark fancy mixtures. The distinctive style of cut makes them much more "lively" and dressy than the usual type of colored suits. We have them at $10, $12, $15, $20 to $35. This week we are giving a special demonstration of unequaled value giving at $20. All of Our $1.50 Copyright Fiction 98c ROWLANDS College Book Store PROF. GRIFFITH CHAIRMAN. Of Committee to Introduce Art in All Universities. Professor Wm. A. Griffith has just returned from the meeting of the American Federation of Arts at Washington. This meeting is the annual convention of all of the leading art departments of educational institutions, civic art associations, art museums and prominent people in art from Maine to California. At the meeting it was decided to make a special effort to introduce art into all of the leading universities of the country, and Professor Griffith was made chairman of a committee for that purpose. For that reason it will be possible next year for the University to greatly improve the department and to secure the leading erities for lectures. SEVERAL CANDIDATES. Baseball Captain to Be Elected Commencement Week. The election of captain of the '11 base ball team will probably be held when the team is making its trip to Arkansas during Commencement week. The question as to who will lead the Jayhawkers next season has not caused much discussion, but the indications are that by the time of election there will be several candidates for the place. Haller, Palmer, and Walker are the three old men on the team and all have been considered. Hanlon, and Smith have also been mentioned, but as yet there seems to be no concentration on any one man. Quill Elected Officers.
