EIGHT VALLEY TEAMS STRUGGLE THIS WEEK
Missouri-Washington and Kansas-Ames Games Are Features
SOONERS TO MEET AGGIES
Nebraska Will Play Grinnell in Other Contest of Conference
Eight of the nine Valley conference basketball teams, including every one but Drake will be engaged in eight games Friday and Saturday of this week end, bringing the race for championship honors into its second lap at full speed. Drake will play a single game with Penn College (Iowa) Saturday night. The other games are:
Missouri-Washington, at Columbia, Friday and Saturday.
Kansas-Ames, at Ames, Friday and Saturday.
Oklahoma-Kansas Aggie, at Man hattan. Friday and Saturday.
Nebraska-Grinnell, at Lincoln, Friday and Saturday.
The Missouri Tigers and the Washington Pikers, ain't their champion and runner-up, will probably stage the most-watched game. Missouri looms up strong so far, and Washington has lost all but two of her last year's stars. Bennie Owen's Sonorens invade Manahawkin to play in the game, and Kansas Travels to Ames to take on the Cyclones. The Oklahomaans' showing against the Oklahoma Aggies last week end, in two smothers, 42 to 10 and 55 to 16, makes them formidable contenders against even the valley leaders. The Aggie "Wildcats" who have returned nearly every man of their last year's squad, are looked upon as very decidedly in the face of Ottawa U. Kansas conference champions, by a close score.
Missouri and Kansas easily ramped over Ames and Drake, last week end. The Missouri-Amnes scores were 30-15 and 28-19, and Kansas beat Drake, 41-18 and 34-28. Both contests were easily won Friday night, but the Iowa lows pitched southern teams slacked slightly against an expected walkaway. Neither of the Browning brothers, of the Tiger quintet was able to perform for Missouri in the first game, and Captain "Pidge" Browning was kept out of the second game on account of injuries. The Kansas team slacked noticeably in the second game, and finished. The Kansas lineup was frequently changed, "Phor" Allen evidently attempting to find the most effective combination.
Nebraska also looms up on the Valley horizon. The Cornhuskers went to Urbana ten days ago, and were barely nosed out by the Illinois U. five, of 25 to 43. The Huskers were just this fall reinstated in the valley conference, and with an unknown strength, only ten valley games, none of which are with Kansas, K. S. A. C. Missouri, or Washington, their character is the prominent appear to be good. Grinnell will invade Lincoln for two games against Nebraska Friday and Saturday nights. Nebraska is said to have a veterian five this year. Grinnell is another unknown.
Players who performed most credited in the games last week are: Williams, Bond, and Knight, of Missouri; Green and Currie of Kansas; Body, and Ullah of Kansas; and Payse and Wilhelm of Drake.

Pup Is Publicity Agent For Drive
The Pup went yelling down the campus with something tied to his tail. Every galloping leap that he made the object, apparently a red tin can, flew up and bumped the heels of the frightened puppy. Finally he became so despondent that he stopped dead still and sadly regarded his disgrace. A passerby found him in this submissive position and decided to remove the obstruction from the paintings. Upon tumbling the dog over he found not a red tin can tied to his tail, but a red tag from which most of the printed matter had been torn, leaving the one remaining and last word of the slovar "DRIVER"
