For Nebraska Game--difference of opinion between the two factions on whether the grocery guilds should be allowed to sell drugs.
Wade Returns to Action
With the return of Maurice "Red" Wade to the Missouri U. No. 2 backfield, the Tigers are looking toward the Nebraska game with greater hopes. Wade's return brought the No. 2 backfield to only 50 per cent of its normal strength, however, and Coach Don Faurot is still a little worried about replacements in the ball-carrying department.
Leo Milla, fullback, and Vernon Bowen, second string right halfback, were still on the bench yesterday as the Tigers wound up last minute preparations for the Husker battle. Erwin Pitts, No. 2 blocking back is ready for duty, Coach Faurot said.
In the Husker camp the outlook isn't so bright. With the loss of two important men by injuries the Cornhuskers' hopes have been severely threatened.
Wade alternated with Joe Flavin in passing drill in which tackling was barred by Coach Faurot. However, Coach Faurot doubted if Flavin would do much passing in the Nebraska game since he is still considerably inexperienced.
"We have definitely lost two members of our regular starting eleven and with a minimum of veterans available, the outlook isn't too bright," Coach Biff Jones commented. However, Clarence Herndon was included in the squad of thirty-five players named to make the trip to Columbia. Herb Von Goetz, first team guard, still is confined to the hospital.
The squad finished the last practice in Lincoln yesterday with a snappy workout on formations and defense drill. Because of the soggy condition of the M.U. field, Coach Jones announced that the squad would workout at Jefferson City today.
Coach Hobbs Adams indicated yesterday that the Kansas State Wildcats will rest over the weekend, having an open date tomorrow. The squad worked leisurely on off-tackle smashes and around-end plays yesterday as it prepared for the homecoming game with Nekraska, November 1.
Coach Dewey Luster promised yesterday that the Sooners would not play entirely a defensive game against Santa Clara, even though the squad spend the greater portion of the afternoon working on defense. The backfield worked on pass defense while the line practiced tackling. Trainer Ted Owens reports the team to be in excellent condition.

Bob Githens, center, who has a bad knee and was unable to scrimmage earlier in the week, was back at his pivot post in yesterday's practice. Most of the injuries sustained in the last two games have begun to heal up, and with the exception of Miller and Pollom, about the same men will be played against Iowa State who were depended upon at the beginning of the season.

History of Apothecary Topic of Bowers' Speech
Dr. Roy A. Bowers, assistant professor of pharmacy, spoke on "The Apothecary" to the weekly dinner meeting of the Lion's club Wednesday night.
One of the facts mentioned by Dr. Bowers was that in the early part of the seventeenth century a quarrel arose between the English guide of grocers and the druggist guild. King James I was petitioned to settle this dispute, which centered around the
King James decreed, "Grocers are but merchants, the business of the apothecaries is a mystery, and therefore they should be allowed to carry it on as a separate profession."
In ancient times the word "mystery" had a different meaning than it has now, Bowers said. Mystery then meant a profession or an art requiring special training and knowledge; therefore, the business of apothecary was a mysterious thing to the average layman.
Dr. Bowers went on to say that pharmacy is one of the oldest professions, but in ancient times it was combined with the art of healing and practiced by the physician, monk, or an old woman of the neighborhood. Many ancient remedies were applied with prayers, he said, which were not repeated to increase the efficiency of the drug but to time the length of application, for in those days clocks were not in common usage.
People in olden times had to depend upon the apothecaries for the purity of their food as well as their medicines since at that time there were no pure food and drug laws, Bowers asserted.
Dartmouth college medical school was established in 1789. 29 years after founding of the college.
