Missouri Short Pass Beat Kansans Again By Score of 39 to 21
Five Man Defense With Strong Offensive Too Much For Jayhawkers
Makes Tiger's Eleventh Win
Hamilton Men Resort to Sloppy Teamwork—Forwards Try Long Shots
The Missouri Tigers defeated the Kansas Jayhawkers at Columbia again last night with the short pass by the score of 39 to 21. The Tigers won their pair of games against the Jayhawkers at Lawrence by the short pass and it was the undoing of the Kansans. It was the eleventh straight win for the Tigers and places them well in the lead for the Valley chomp saw
The Tigers were the agressors all the way after the first few minutes of the game when the Kansans led by a one point margin. The five man defense for which the Tigers are not held the Jayhawker attacks in check while the short pass piled an big score for the Missourians. The Kansans resorted to long passes that resulted in sloppy team work and deaf. The Kansans failed at the short pass game themselves. The Kansa forwardes were unable to hit the bag ket with their long shots and passe were wild.
Rice replaced Laslett who was put out of the game for personal fouls. Laslett played a great defensive game and he was brilliant. The game was rough all of the way.
The Kansas stars were Uhlraah who played an all around good game, Matthews who tussed six straight free throws, and Laslett for his floor work while in the game. Slusher and Ruby were the Tiger stars. Ruby was the man who worked so well in the series with K. U. here. The M. U. five were hitting the basket with more accuracy than they have displayed all season.

Track Men Begin Work For Kansas City Meet Freshmen Are Eligible
Athletes Will Meet Real Competition In Convention Hall March 2
Track work for the men who went to Manhattan began again in earnest Wednesday night. A large number of men who did not make the trip are also still out trying for a place on the team. "The men who did not make the trip to Manhattan still has a good chance to make the team," said Coach Hamilton just before the meet.
The K. C, A. C. meet in Kansas City March 2 is now barely two weeks off and men are working hard to be in the best condition possible. Freshmen are eligible for this meet and any one of them who shows up well in practice may be given a chance to play in the state team. Hamilton urges that all freshmen who think they are track men come out regularly.
The time in the meet at Manhattan Monday in many of the events was slow. Neither Murphy or Rice had any trouble in winning their team, and they respectively show up as sure point winners in the Valley meets.
Coach Hamilton is in Missouri this week with the basketball team. Fred Rodkey has complete charge of the track while he is away. The basketball season will soon be over and then Coach Hamilton will devote his entire time to the track team.

Dummy O'Leary, who was elected captain of the track team for this year at the end of the 1917 season, was out on the track limbering up yesterday. O'Leary is in Lawrence on a short furlough and will go to Columbus, O., to begin training for aviation. He has been stationed at Camp Greene, Charlotte, N. C.
Only seven or eight men have turned out in response to the call for Varsity battery candidates and Coach Bond is anxious that the number be increased to fifteen or twenty soon.
Fred Rodkey has charge of the track candidates during the absence of Coach Hamilton.
