No Nav Day Right at X. U.

L. renee, Kan, April 27--There
seems to be some prospect for a
change in the usual May day fight at
the University of Kansas this year.
Neither the freshmen nor the sophie
mores seem very anxious for the fray
owing to the heavy debts hanging over
the two classes, and several of the
leaders are talking of giving up the
annual May day bout to save expenses.
Last fall one or two members Of the
freshman class were injured in a class
encounter, and the freshmen paid all
the doctors bills in the cases. The
soph ignores recently incurred a debt
of s125 for fines. costs and repairs as
a result of the junior promenade raid.
