The Daily Iowan The Student Newspaper of the State University of Iowa VOL. XVIII--NEW SERIES VOL. III IOWA CITY, IOWA, TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1919 NUMBER 103 MICHIGAN HITTING SMASHES OUT EASY VICTORY BY 8 TO 1 Wolverines Make Twelve Safe Drives off Hamilton to Smother Hawkeyes ERROR GIVES IOWA ONE RUN McIlree Finishes Game for Iowa Play Return Game on Saturday Well, Michigan looked pretty good yesterday. The Wolverines were good enough to down Iowa 8 to 1, anyhow, and they earned the victory by playing baseball of the real championship variety. Concentrated and everlasting hitting turned the trick. Michigan fell on Hamilton for twelve hits in eight innings, bunching them in the fourth for four runs and in the eighth for three more. Practically every blow was of the solid, sure enough variety. Karpus crashed out one home run and came in trotting; Knode and Garrett were both good for a triple. Only two of the ten men Michigan played failed to connect at least once. For three innings it looked like Iowa had a chance. Knode's three-bagger and Cooper's single scored one in the first inning for Michigan but Iowa tied the score in the second. Crawford, first man up, swung twice in vain but bumped the third one square. The ball rolled almost into the river and if the dike had not stopped it the hit would have been a homer. McIlree struck out, but Cockshoot poked a slow one to Parks, who fielded clean and threw easy to Huber. The Wolverine catcher had every chance to tag Crawford but dropped the ball, and the lone Iowa ally came as the result of an error. Karpus hit to deep center and went the circuit in the fourth with only one man out and nobody on base. With Fromke an out Hamilton gave his first base on balls of the afternoon to Langenham. Parks angled to right, and in the try to get Langenham at third the Michigan pitcher loped down to second. Knode rolled one at Goodwin but the ball was slow and the Wolverine shortstop fast. Although Goodwin felded cleanly and made a fast throw Knode beat it out and Langenham scored on the play. Cooper's single drove in two runs and Bowerman's mighty wallop to center was grabbed off by Crawford after a hard run. After three men singled in the eighth Garrett poked a long one to deep center driving in two men ahead of him, but was caught at home in an attempt to stretch his hit into a circuit smash. In the ninth McIlree took up the pitching burden for the Hawkeyes and set down the visiting athletes in one two three fashion. Huber, Michigan catcher, was a freshman at the University here four years ago. The Hawkeyes take a trip at the end of this week playing Notre Dame and Michigan.

HEP--ZETS READY FOR FINAL REHEARSALS Professional Acting Assured By Coaching of Prof. Lauer Success Predicted Everything is in readiness for the annual Hep-Zet play, "A Scrap of Paper." The cast will rehearse at the Englert theatre today and the work will be completed tomorrow morning by a final dress rehearsal. Members of Hesperian and Zetagathian literary societies have been conducting the ticket sale for the past week. According to present indications, a large audience will be present to witness the only literary society play of the year. Seats may be reserved today and tomorrow. The action of the comedy centers around a love letter written on a scrap of paper. Luther Erickson takes the part of Robert Holbrook, the traveller who asked for the hand of Mathilde Newton in the morning, fell in love with Suzanne Levering in the afternoon, and supposedly, wrote a love letter to Alice Gilbert in the evening. Romola Latchem as Suzanne Levering is the wealthy young woman who has chosen to remain single through sheer love of independence. But love conquers independence in the end and Suzanne promises to become the wife of Mr. Holbrook. The comedy parts are taken by Clarence Fackler and Ruth Rogers. Earl Wells takes the part of Mr. Rockwell, who has a hard time to keep his watchful eye on his charming young wife. The ingenue parts are taken by Herman White and Marian Dyer in the roles of George Harding and Mathilde Newton. The course of their love does not run smooth and poor George has a terrible time. Helen Von Lackum, Isabel Naureth and Mr. Matt take the parts of the servants. Under the coaching of Professor E. H. Lauer, the members of the cast have overcome many of the defects of an amateur production, and everything possible has been done to make the play a great success. TO HAVE Y. W. SENIOR MEETING The senior irls of the Y. W. cabinet will have a program Wednesday afternoon in the liberal arts drawing room at 4:30. The girls will talk on the following subjects: "If I were a Freshman," Dorothy Hull; "Junior," Miriam Chase; "Sophomore," Ann Hobbett; "Senior," Edythe Saylor; "Alumna," Elizabeth Hendee. SENIOR WOMEN HAVE EXCLUSIVE TABLE AT MAY BREAKFAST Y. W. Senior Program and Senior Sing at Old Capitol Will Be Held Wednesday COMMITTEE PLANS PICNIC Movie Will Be Enjoyed After the Picnicking Thursday--Senior Week an Institution Senior caps will appear for the first time this year when the senior women assemble at the table set apart for them at the May breakfast. A lawn party at Currier hall Saturday afternoon initiated feminine festivities for the commencement season. Victrola music, I blankets cozy benches and pleasant sunshine made the setting particularly attractive. Senior Issue of Iowan The breakfast this morning begins the three days of special activities which make up senior women's week. This issue of The Iowan is directed by senior women of the staff. A senior Y. W. program is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon and a senior women's sing at Old Capitol steps at 7 o'clock are the only other events of the day because many of the seniors wish to attend the Hep-Zet play Wednesday night. All senior women of all colleges will participate in the picnic Thursday at Saunders' hill at 11 o'clock, the occasion being an enforced holiday. A committee composed of Eleanor Rosenberg, Hiril Henning, Luella Reimers, Elsie Hayek and Agnes Kingsbury, has arranged for the luncheon, and they insist that each person shall come with money as the assessment will be made at the picnic. Only persons who have signed for the picnic may attend, as the committee has not made provisions for extras. Started Last Year After the picnic celebration, the women will attend in a body some movie, the theatre to be decided Thursday. The matter of "rushing" the movie was proposed but the general opinion was opposed to such action as undignified and unbecoming in seniors. Senior women's week at the University of Iowa was made a part of commencement for the first time by the women of last year's graduating class. The 1919 women are determined that the event shall be made an institution, and they are arduous in their efforts to promote class spirit and comradeship among the women of this year's class. INVITATIONS HERE SOON The senior invitations are off the presses and are now being bound, according to a letter received from the engravers yesterday. Romola Latchem, chairman of the invitation committee, expects to receive the invitations the latter part of next week. As soon as they arrive the seniors will be notified through The Iowan. Those who neglected to order their invitations will be unable to buy any, for the committee could not take the risk of ordering extra copies and the engravers will not accept a late order. Prof. A. O. Thomas of the geology department gave a lecture at Simpson college Friday evening on "A Trip to the West Indies." THIRTY-FIVE WOMEN ENJOY Y. HOUSE PARTY About thirty-five past and present members of the Y. W. C. A. cabinet attended the annual house party at Linders' boat house during the week end. Hikes, music, kodaking a marshmallow roast, and a dip in the river by an adventurous few, provided the amusement of the occasion. Meetings were held Saturday and Sunday under the direction of Miss Agnes Hall, student secretary for the North Central field, and definite plans were made for next year's work. Every spring after the election of officers and appointment of cabinet members for the following year. a week end is given over to the annual frolic cambined with an informal training school for the new workers of the association.

CONCERT WAS SUCCESSFUL Credit Given to Dr. Van Doren for Orchestra's Standard The University orchestra aroused much favorable comment at its concert Sunday afternoon. Bach's "Schauspeil Overture," the opening number, is full of brilliant figures which were interpreted excellently. Typically modern in its tone was "A Love Suite" by Lake, made up of three contrasting parts of which the Danse Capriccio is striking in its peculiar pauses and detatched chords. The two Sousa selections were well received and, as an encore, "Hindustan" was played. Sousa's "Wedding March" was also on the program. " 'Surprise Symphony," the Haydn selection pleased the audience in the second movement, andante in C Major. Credit can be given Dr. O. E.
