McCOOK'S FIRST GAME ON HOLIDAY
Missouri and Kansas Have Never Met Before on the K. U. Field Thanksgiving
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Tiger for Thanksgiving dinner!
Sounds good, doesn't it? But that's what will happen if Kansas triumphs over Missouri in their twenty-six annual football struggle on McCook Field tomorrow afternoon. And Indiana will have the Jayhawk has ever had to feast on Tiger meat on a Thanksgiving day in Lawrence. Tomorrow will be the first Thanksgiving game between the two schools ever played in Lawrence, since football relations were established twenty-five years. That first Kansas City, Kansas winner, 22-8
Up until 1907, Kansas City was always the scene of the annual struggle. 'But that year the game was played in St. Joseph, the Jayhawk triumphing in a 4 to 0 victory. The following year the game was brought back to Kansas City where the game was played each Thanksgiving Day up until 1911. The last game in Kansas City was played on the Gordon & Koppel field in 1910, resulting in a 5 to 5 tie.
In 1911 a conference ruling was made that all football games must be played on home grounds. The same year, the first for this ruling to go into effect, the Jahayawk journeyed to Columbia and fought the Tiger a 3 to 3 tie. This game was played on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, as it was each year following up until last year when it was decided to shift the big games from Thanksgiving Day ago to Columbus.ago, saw Kansas triumph in an 8 to 6 victory, the game being played in a sea of mud. This was the first Thanksgiving game between the two schools played on the Missouri home grounds.
Whether the 7 to 3 victory over Nebraska, eleven days ago has made the K. U. players over-confident is to be seen, but the Kansas supporters feel sure that the Tiger will sneak back to his hair, again this year, without making any mistake. Jalepink feather, but instead will have another knot in his tail.
McCook Field is in readiness for its first Thanksgiving game between the two ancient rivals.
SOCCER TO COME TO THE
FRONT AT TURKEY DAY
After the smoke of the Thanksgiving day battle has cleared and the talk has begun to be swallowed up in the flow of everyday affairs we may begin to hear something about soccer. The follows go out on the field every day to practice, but you put in a couple of hours practicing. A great deal of interest is being shown and notwithstanding the fact that most of the material is new, the prospects for a winning team is good. The team will probably be in shape for a game soon after Thanksgiving, so there will be no need for practice: Blount, Evans, Cox, Moxley, Van Brunt, Bennett, Griffith, Darby, Hangen, and Campbell.
URGES SUMMER COACHING
Olcott Points Out Benefits of Summer School for Athletes
"A summer school for the coaching of athletics should be established at the University of Kansas," says Coach Herman Olcott, in a special article to the Alumni of the University of Kansas, in the November issue of the Graduate Magazine which comes from the press this week.
"Such a school would bring all the advantages to be obtained in athletics at the University to the attention of the students," said Colectt, in athletics," said Coach Olcott.
"Since no summer school for coaching exists west of the University of Illinois, Kansas would draw to her the students from all territory adjacent to Kansas. Wyoming, Missouri, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Texas would probably send students to such a school. Some of these men, however, would not attend the University of Kansas and her beautiful surroundings, would stay.
"Better coaches for Kansas high school teams would result also. These coaches go out into the state would develop athletic material, and would encourage students to come to the University of Kansas."
It is Coach Olecott's sincere opinion that the establishment of a summer school for athletics would promote the interests of the University noticeably, and tend toward developing the mentoring of students in the state of Kansas.

PLAN RELIGIOUS CAMPAIGN
Evangelists to Outline Work for Coming Year
Plans for an evangelical campaign, similar to the famous Mott-Robin campaign two years ago, will be made next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, when H. L. Heizman, Varsity football star of '68, now a member of the International Committee of the Y. M. C. A., and David Porter, successor to John R. Mot as chairman of the committee, will be hired with their budget plans for the association work for next year will be finished. Different chairmen will be conferred with in respect to their work.
"It is highly probable," said Hugo Wedell, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., this morning, "that there will be a joint meeting of all the churches and associations on the Hill for the purpose of developing co-operation in religious activities and a division of the work among the students."
When Mr. Heinznam opened the Mott-Robin campaign two years ago with his talk, "What are you doing here?" he was greeted by the largest crowd that had attended morning chapel that year and who came to the regular meeting of the Y. M. C. A. next Tuesday evening in Myers Hall. Special music by the Y. M. C. A. glee club will also be a feature of the evening's program.
According to the McGill Daily, Ward Paterson, former famous foot-战术er at the University of New Brunswick, has hit several sesques with the University's battalion.
Mr. Porter will address the mem-
orals of the Volunteer Band on Wed-
day.
