Has Missouri Withdrawn?
An item of unusual interest to Kansas University was the one sent out the other day from Columbia to the effect that the Athletic Association of Missouri Universisy had repudiated, by a unanimous vote, the action of their delegate, Mr. Cory, in withdrawing the Missouri University from the Western Intercollegiate Association.
Mr. R. K. Moody, who is President of the Association, has received a letter from Judge Lawson, of Missouri, in which he states that Mr. Cory assumed authority that was not delegated to him in withdrawing Missouri from the Association, that while Mr. Cory was elected delegate to the meeting at Iowa City, he was not given instructions to act as he did, and that since by a unanimous vote the Athletic Association of the Missouri University repudiates such action, he considers Missouri is still a member of the Association.
The situation is an unfortunate one, and seems to resolve itself into a question as to the power of the delegate. Mr. Moody thinks the question is a delicate one. Inasmuch as we are to play the annual Thanksgiving game with Missouri, it is to our interest to have both clubs governed by Association rules. If the question is left to avote Missouri may be excluded, as neither Nebraska nor Iowa feel that they are under any obligation to Missouri for past favors.
It has been suggested that Missouri realized that she couldn't get games scheduled with the big schools of both the East and West, and so to secure herself wishes to remain in the league. However, as Judge Lawson says the league has been struggling for years, and for its success he has been an ardent co-worker.
Anyhow it all seems very strange when we think of that $15,000, of Coach Thorn as full back, and of the Tigers bucking Yale! HEADQUARTERS FOR : : : :
