Overholser, A. M. Umlandt. The contest this year promises to be of exceeding high merit, according to Max Conrad, president of Fortnsic league, because all of the above men are said to have shown great ability in the tryouts. This contest is to be the last event in Forensic league's yearly program. CHEMIST SPEAKS ON RECONSTRUCTION WORK Dr. E. W. Rockwood, professor of chemistry, will lecture at 10 a. m.  Thursday May 15, in the physics lecture room on "Chemical Engineering as a Profession." He will take up the value of chemical engineering of past years, its relation to reconstruction work, and the many openings in that field today and in the future. This lecture will be open to the public. Dr. Rockwood says all who are interested in the opportunities of this extensive field are invited. The lecture is primarily for students in the college of applied science. COMMERCE CLUB TO BANQUET The Commerce club will hold its annual banquet at the Commercial club rooms Tuesday evening, May 13 , at 6 o'clock. This banquet will differ from former banquets in that women have been admitted to membership in the club and a large number are expected to attend. All who intend to come should purchase tickets before Tuesday evening. FINLAY CAMPBELL Baritone Symphony Orchestra VETERAN WILL SING AT MUSICAL FESTIVAL Corporal Finlay Campbell, Canadian Soldier, Will Come With Symphony Orchestra Corporal Finlay Campbell, Canadian baritone, who will appear with the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra in concert at the armory May 24, has the distinction of being the first singer to return to this continent from France bearing the wound-scars that are the badge of honor of so many heroes. Born in England, of Scotch-Irish parents, Corporal Campbell was taken to Australia while a child. He returned to England, where he finished his education, and then moved to Canada. He enlisted early in the war, serving fifteen months in the trenches. It was at the famous "Hill 60" in Belgium that he fell, all but shattered by a bursting shell. After many months in various hospitals, he was discharged with the designation of "84 per cent disabled." Curiously enough, Corporal Campbell always found time and opportunity to improve his fine natural voice, and he is known today as one of the most successful concert baritones in the United States. He is also an oratorio singer of wide experience, and has a large general repertoire. EPISCOPAL STUDENTS AND FACULTY TO HAVE BANQUET Episcopalians, both students and faculty, are to have a dinner at the Commercial club rooms Thursday evening, May 15, at 6 o'clock. The Rev. Paul Macou who is in charge of the work of the Episcopal church at the colleges and universities will be the guest of honor. He will tell of the work of the church in other universities and will give ideas for the work here. A social and business meeting will follow the dinner. The Morrison society is in charge of the plans for the dinner and meeting, and every Episcopalian in the University is expected and invited to be present. Those not able to remain for the meeting may leave after supper, and any not able to be present at the supper are urged to come in the evening. The supper will be 50 cents a plate. Those intending to be present should notify Willis Nutting, Beatrice Gates, Lucille Everett, or Rodney Cobb before Thursday, if they have not already done so. IOWA NINE LOSES TO ILLINOIS TEAM IN NINTH INNING Hawkeyes tie the Score in Seventh Inning and Win Another Point in Eighth PITCHERS STRIKE OUT NINE Visitors Get Two Scores in Series of Bad Luck for Iowa Fielders -- Hamilton Loses Grasp With the game on ice for Iowa in the ninth inning, loose work coupled with misfortune and bad breaks gave Illinois three runs and the Hawkeyes lost their baseball game of the season yesterday afternoon by a score of 4 to 2. It happened like this. Diehl, first man up, was passed and Kissinger, after two vain attempts to bunt, landed on the rawhide for his second single of the afternoon with the count two and three on him. His hit was a clean one to center, Diehl making second on the play. Ryan knocked the ball cleanly but in throwing to first hit the runner in the legs and there were three men on bases with nobody down, and the head of the batting list coming up. With the infield drawn in close Doss whammed a hard one that went through everyone and rolled into left field. Diehl and Kissinger scored and the hitter took second on the throw in. Edwards was an out, Hamilton to Cockshoot, Kaiser's attempt was a low fly in trying to bunt. Hamilton strove to reach the ball with his bare hand and had it just on the ground, but it got away. Ryan was scored and although Inwerson struck out for the third time and Barklage flied into the well the damage was done. After Illinois had scored on run in the fourth inning on two passes, a snatch hit, and a neat squeeze play both teams worried along until the seventh before anything happened. Here Coach Jones' Hawkeyes put over one run to tie the score and in the eighth another marker gave the Old Gold nine a slim margin. Crawford was passed to start the seventh and took second on McIlree's infield out. Cockshoot got his second hit of the day and Crawford counted, tieing the score. In the eighth Brown was safe when Doss muffed his long drive to center field, Goodwin's sacrifice sent the Iowa captain to third and Ehred's infield out put the Hawkeyes momentarily in the lead. Hamilton for Iowa and Ryan for Illinois both struck out nine men, but Hamilton gave four passes and hit one batter. Three of the four passes blossomed into runs for Illinois: Five Hawkeye errors were also of material assistance to the Illini, particularly in the ninth inning. Crawford for Iowa got the only extra base hit of the day and Cockshoot boosted his average with two clean singles in four times up. Barklage fielded sensationally for Illinois, while Kissinger and Doss for Huff's crew starred with the stick. The summary:
Iowa AB R H E A PO Brown, lf 0 1 1 0 0 1 Bink, 2b 3 0 0 1 1 0 Goodwin, 2b 0 0 0 0 1 0 Ehred, ss 4 0 0 0 2 0 Hamilton, p 4 0 0 2 4 0 Crawford, cf 3 1 1 0 0 0 McIlree, 3b 4 0 0 2 4 1 (Continued on page four)
