SOONERS HOLD SWAY IN VALLEY TITLE RACE
Jayhawkers Nosed Out of First Berth by Oklahoma Luggers
KANSAS AND TIGERS TIED
Second Place Will be Decided at Annual Turkey Day Battle
With but one more game to go, the Jayhawks stand tied for second place in the valley competition. Until last week Kansas was in first place, but the game with the Okahomans put Kansas down a notch and gave the Sooners an undisputed hold on the top spot. Oklahoma has shown easily the class of the Missouri Valley. Beating Washington University at St. Louis, 24 to 14 did not upset the lake dope much and nobody thought much of the results, but when the Boomers were up to it, only one player on the turn of 28 to everyone in the valley cast his eyes OKahomarw. Kansas went to Oklahoma and came home with a 21 to 9 defeat, and Okahomarw was tasted as the virtual winners of the valley title race.
The Jayhawkers started a stiff
schedule in their valley race got away with both Ames and Drake, not by large scores, but enough to see that Kansas bade fair to become a strong contender for the title. Ames went down to a 7 to 0 defeat, the Kansas score being made in the first three minutes of play when Little got away for a perfect 85 yard run and the only touchdown of the game. Drake came to Kansas, and a 7 to 3 defeat, Brindley came to the 55 yard line, thus breaking a valley record for drop kicks. The Jayhawkers went to Manhattan and were easily the best of the two by a 14 to 0 score.
Missouri, the winner of last year's race, came into the competition this season, with a good reputation that soon fell. Now they are tied with Oakland in the second round. The Tigers have two games to go to finish their schedule, Washington and Kansas. The doesters may figure out the results for themselves. As for the other contenders this weekend, Thanksgiving day and finishes the 1920 schedule. To date Drake has lost two games, won one from Washington and tied with Grinnell. Ames has to date lost to Mistral in the first round, and Washington Grinnell and the Aggies have yet to win their first conference games.
Another way to swat Reno is to pass a law prohibiting wives from tearing up "his" heavies to make into rags.
Hickory Dickory Dock Still on Blake Hall
The old grad, drifting back to the campus after the lape of fleeting years, glances up at the clock on Blake Hall, nee the hands still pointing at 8:25, and chuckles. Here is at least one old fan favorite, leathered on the changes of time. He grins as he recalls the innumerable times he was fooled by the eccentricities of the big clock. For twenty years the Blake Hall clock has been the source of earnest editorials and indignant "Campus Opinion" letters in the Daily Kanman. Hundreds of credulous visitors have gasped in amazement of the old clock and the practical jokes and witticisms originating from this source are legion.
The big time-piece was not a success even in its prime. Never was there assembled a more hopelessly complicated agglomeration of wheels spilling out the door, sharper than Over a decade ago the professors in the department of physics confessed that the affair was too intricate for them, and thus the department of buildings and ground floors contained the contraption "wished on it."
But soon the old grids will look for the ancient clock in vain. It is to be consigned to the junk heap in the near future, and a new clock
