The DesMoines athletes play no game for a week, and then meet Iowa Normal on their own field. After that they journey down the road to meet the Wash-ion Pikers in their second conference game of the season. Griffith fears this team, for what reason we can't say. The Missouri Tigers are sending out a dismal and woeful "bear story" from Columbia regarding their chances in the game with the Ames Aggies Saturday. Gallagher, a 210-pound guard, is out of the game, and will not be able to play for two weeks, the whole squad has developed an air of complete lassitude since the hard game with the Sooners, last week, and again, school, as well as all of the old footballs, who have returned to Columbia to watch the team practice, are lamenting the gradual weakening of the Tiger eleven. Even at that, Missouri Aggies Saturday, just to upset dope. A near split in the amicable relations between two Missouri Valley schools, was averted Saturday, when Coach Benny Owens, tutor of the Oklahoma Sooners, permitted his athletes to play in the game against the Missouri Tigers, minus the services of Reeds, and needed no formal protest against either of the barred athletes until fifteen minutes before the game, and although Owens was perfectly willing that Ambruster be restrained from participation, nevertheless he disputed the protest of Reeds violently, and it was only when Missouri started to withdraw the seven hundred dollar security that had been given the Oklahoma management for railroad fare, gate receipts etc., that Owens decided positively to keep Reeds on the side when Reeds were unable to play against the Reeds is eligible to play against Conference teams according to Conference rules, and it was only the need of the seven hundred dollar guarantee that kept Owens from withdrawing his team from the field and forfeiting the game to Missouri. Having grown unexpectedly chesty over their defeat of the Minnesota Gophers last, Saturday, Nebraska Athletic Authorities are submitting a claim to the middle west schools is the Big 8, declaring that she has outgrown the Missouri, and therefore acquiring membership in that august body. Here is the way they figure it. Minnesota will win the Big 8 championship. That's taken for granted. The fact that the Gophers swamped the Cornuskers last year, and yet did not come within a mile of the title, is loft to the Nebraska Nebraska possessing a far weaker team this year, will win the title. Then because Nebraska defeated Minnesota Nebraska will be far superior to any of the Big 8 schools. Q. E. D. Boasts the Daily Nebraskan: "The time is ripe for Nebraska to come to the fore. She is rapidly outgrowing her team and should receive the position (i. e., membership in the Big 8) that her rank as the greatest university of the middle west entitles her to."

If you like peach ice cream try ours. Wiedemann's.—Adv. The general fraternity of Delta Upsilon, now in session in Rochester, N. Y., yesterday voted in opposition to the reception of members from high school and preparatory fraternities after September 1, 1917. This action was taken at an in-grade conference held in Chicago last May, which was ingested by Delta Upsilon for the purpose of investing the growing hostility to Greek letter fraternities, particularly in the middle west, and with a view to a better understanding between the university and the parish and the resolution prompted by the Chicago conference, and with reference to which the action was taken yesterday, reads as follows: HERE'S A FRESHMAN WHO WANN'T GREEN At the time of the year when most of the college papers are telling stories at the expense of the freshman, the Kansas Agrie breaks the monotony. It tells a story about a purple ticket to a freshman at the reduced price of fifty cents. The freshman asked if he could give a check for a dollar. The senior gave the freshman the ticket and the fifty cents change and folding up the check it in the pocket. He looked at the check that night he read: To pay to Know-It-All Blank, or order, ONE-Cent, Jack Jones." The word "one" had been made particularly prominent. The men's Pan-Hellenic council at Uahh University has been dissolved on account of the association's inability to better the strained conditions existing there between fraterities.

Games Although all of the Jayhawker students may not recognize the fact, Kansas so far is leading the race for the Missouri Valley Conference Championship this year, and from present indications has an excellent chance to hold her narrow lead to the end of the season. The Missouri Valley Conference includes seven schools: Kansas, Ames, Nebraska, Drake, K. S. A. C., Washington, and Missouri. The other big Missouri Valley colleges: Washburn, Oklahoma, Grinnell, Iowa State, and Haskell have not been admitted to the Conference. Sister College once held membership, and dropped it for the more exclusive society of the Big 8. During the first two weeks of the season, none of the Conference teams meet one another on the gridiron, Kansas met William Jewell, Drake played Coe and Nebraska battled with Cornell. After these preparatory games the fur always begins to fly. Kansas leads so far in the race this year, having captured games from both Washington and Drake, two of the championship contests. Oklahoma won a victory apiece. Ames also having taken the Pikers into camp, and the Cornhuskers having defeated the Kansas Aggies. Drake and the Kansas Aggies have each lost one contest, to Kansas and Nebraska rebounded. Oklahoma dropped two games, and lost its chance for the title completely. Missouri has played no championship games. So the Conference title seems to be greatly in doubt, and no school has so far this season any more than a small claim to the title. As the team that wins the prize is generally ever-victorious it would appear that Kansas, Ames, Nebraska, and Missouri are in the running, and one of these will be put out of the race Saturday when the Tigers meet the Iowa Aggies at Ames. Of course one of the teams that have lost a single game might still step up and grab the prize, but this would be unusual. So watch Kansas, Missouri, Ames, and Nebraska and you will see the probable 1913 Missouri Valley Conference Championship eleven. The Conference Rating G. W. L. Pct.
