The division came in September, 1927. Dr. James Naismith, Prof. A. T. Walker, and W.C. Lans- don represented the University at a preliminary meeting in Kansas City, Jan. 12, 1907. Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, and Washington University of St. Louis, also were present. Or- ganization was completed Feb. 16, of that year. Iowa soon withdrew, finding interests lying chiefly with the Big Ten. From time to time other institutions were added (See chart) and finally the division when the organization became tco unwieldy. 92427 Big Six Iowa U 11207———5 25 11 Withdrawn Formed Kansas U ” Missouri U ” Washngtn U ” Nebr’ska 11108 Iowa State ” Drake a Kansas State ....12912 Grinnell 12 1318 Oklahoma U. 12519 Oklshoma A & M33. 123 26— The “standings” from 1907 to 1927 inclusive are from the “Missouri Valley Conference Handbook,” by permission of its editor, Leighton Housh, of DesMoines.

There is another rumor that is floating around anong the coaches which is almost as bad. George Edwards informed the coaches last Sunday at their meeting, that a ruling had been passed by the Directors and the faculty represen- tatives to the effect that the ten players could be taken on a trip and also only ten players could be dressed in uniform for the home game. If such a ruling has been made, then this is the plumb, There is no need for them to try any further te get the freakiest of all freakish ideas across.

About one«half of the members of the Emporia team are freshmen. They play under their conference rules and we play under ours. This would be emetly the case with Wishita University. Oct. 6, 1940 Regarding the posteseason game, there is no definite time set as to when the basketball season shall end, but I presume that because the Oklahoma A. and Me game was scheduled after the close of our conference season, Merch 7, that certain members of the Board might have thought that the Oklahoma A,» dnd M. game was a post~season games It is not posteseason any more than is the football game with Colorado State, This game is played after the Big Six football season closes with Missouri on November ai, but it is not post-seasone : : . ”upthernere, many ‘peupts are of the opinion that the basket- ball practice season is' long.
