If Kansas Wins.
If Kansas wins the big game, those who attend chapel Monday morning will hear something to their advantage," was the statement issued by Chancellor Strong this afternoon. Humors are current on the campus that a holiday all next week will be granted if Kansas wins. These are untrue.
Coach Frank Looks For Hard Battle
Assistant Coach Frank: "The men have shown that they have the 'stuff' that makes a winner. The last ten days have produced a great change in the team. The men are all working together to win the biggest game on the sidelines. I do believe as much aplid displayed at any university as there has been at Kansas during the past week."
He Trained The Tigers
Assistant Coach T. Hackney: "The Jayhawks played a good game at Lincoln last Saturday but they did not display any of the form that the Tigers showed against Nebraska. I think that Missouri will win the contest."
One woman is enrolled in the law school of the University of Oklahoma.

(Meaning Student Opinion)
*(Meaning Student Opinion.)*
Learned teachers rise and tell us, that to make our talk subline, we should cast out awful Hades, from our yellfest at this time. Now I nainwould beg to differ from posi-would beg to differ from opinions of this kind; why not speak the words that rise up, in a crisis, in your mind? Shall we let our spirits bubble neath a closed and silent mouth, fearing if we dare to shutter, saying if we dare to word out? Yell your darndest! Givmmaides! That's the spirit of today! Makes no difference what you warble, makes no difference what you say; only yell that the loudest that comes first into your mind. Whoopee! Givmmaides! E-e-ya-a-a-h! Yell the first word you can find.
"We'll Win" Declare Rival Captains on Eve of Game
PONCE.
Captain Harold Brownlee: "The game that the team put up against Nebraska shows the strength of the eleven. This is my last year on the team and I want to see a Kansas victory once during my college days. I think this is the year."
WHICH TEAM WILL JAYHAWKERS LIGHT WIN RUBBER GAME? BUT AGGRESSIVE
Contest This Year Should Break Chain Of
Ties
A review of the records of the past Tiger-Kansas struggles shows the Jayhawkers to be in the lead both on the number games won and the total points scored. Up to this year Kansas has returned the winner in thirteen games. Missouri has won four, but neither team have resulted in ties. In addition Kansas has scored 275 points to Missouri's 105.

Two of the ties were played in the last two games. This coming struggle should break this tie. Who will return the winner? The Tiger rooters dope the Jungle Cat to win while the Kansans are just as certain that the Jayhawk will return the winner. If you can judge from past dope this should be the case but then the horse has been shown when the Stiehm Roller romped to victory with the horse shoe tiddyt in its crasp.
The records of the games between the two schools and the scores for the season's conflicts are:

Over 2,000 students have joined Michigan Union this year.
average Weight. But 16
Pounds—Squad Exceptionally Young
The average age of the Mosse Frank hopes is 21 years and 3 months, which is very young for a University team. This accounts for the fact that but two of the men have played three years. These men are Captain Brownlee and Price, who will finish their last year on the varsity with the conclusion of the Missouri game. Eight of the rest have had two years experience on the varsity squad, although but six "K" men are represented in the lineup. They are: Price, Brownlee, Bromwell, Burnham, Weildine, and Coolidge. This season will mark the advent of the rest of the men as varsity recruits. Most these men however, have rounded into full fledged gridironers, and their will be no indications of stage fright when they face the Missouri.
The squad on which the work of the Kansas-Missouri struggle will fall is by no means an exceptionally heavy or aged bunch. The average weight of the twenty men, who stand the best chances of representing their Alma Mater, is but 166 pounds, not very heavy for a Conference team, but when judged by the way in which they handled the Nebraska beef this weight is not so appalling. Every man is in the best of shape and none of the squad carry any superlous beef to handicap their speed. Parker, one of the half-bucks, is the lightest man on the field. He weighs two pounds, two pounds less than quarter-back Magill. The heaviest man is Big Burnham, a 198 pounder, who plays tackle.

Captain C. P. Lemire: "This is my last year of football at Missouri and I am glad that the last game is against our oldest and stunchest enemy. I believe that the Jayhawkers will taste defeat once more this year."
TWISTED TIGER TOLD HIS LONG DYING WAIL
Burning of the Beast Capped Monster Rally This Morning
Preceeding the burning of the tiger, a monster mass meeting was held at the gymnasium. The building was packed with students, bubbling over with enthusiasm. The air was filled with confidence of victory. The speakers from the faculty apparently had no idea of defeat, and warned the students not to go to excess in their celebration after the game. Never before has the spirit of the school, the fighting spirit, been so aroused.
Whining and snarling in his agony, the Tiger passed to the unknown land where bad Tigers go, at eleven thirty o'clock this morning. Two thousand students, and as many more spectators, witnessed the spectacle. From time to time, the exploded in the mass of flames, thus signaling an exploded Tiger Hope.
The came Uncle Jimmy. The great audience stood when he arose to take his place as speaker. He spoke at length of the Nebraska game, an event that has had a great deal to do with the spirit shown for the coming Missouri contest. He was as confident of victory as the ones of the speakers that preceded him. So he took the students that the game tomorrow played under a square set of officials.
The meeting then adjourned to the campus to burn the Tiger.

EXPECTS TO TWIST THAT TIGER'S TAIL
Screeching Jayhawk Eagerly Waits to Pounce on Approaching Prey
And this feeling of confidence which pervades the Kansas camp is just what will twist another knot to the long link of knots of Jayhawk origin, which adorn the rear anatomy of a certain feline from Missouri. Kansas is due to win and every man is going to the game with the intention of beating the Tiger. Kansas has felt her strength in the late affair at Lincoln and nothing short of a fluke can beat her.
Will Kansas win from the Tigers?
Ask this question of any loyal Jayhawker rooster and you will not only receive an answer in the affirmative but in addition with such emphasis as to doubt in your mind as to the winner.
Coaches Expect Hard Fight.
The winner which ever side it may be, will have no cinch in copping the game as the same feeling pervades both camps. On one hand Kansas has been defeated by hard luck in several contests but is running over with a spirit which forbodes ill for her opponents. Kansas must win this contest as it is the team's last chance to make good. The Missouriors, however, victors of the last few games will come here with the feeling of confidence to a certain extent. The Tigers feel sure of winning, and as they always play best when on the winning end, they will undoubtedly put up a fierce defence. Both of the opposing coaches expect a hard struggle and in their statements, express their appreciation of the others strength. Neither team will be surprised as was Nebraska, and both will be prepared for a hard fight.
Weight Nearly The Same.
In the weight proposition Kansas will have slightly the better of the proposition. The Jayhawker line will outweigh the Missourians by about nine pounds per man. This will probably off-set the weight of the Missouri back field. "Dobbie" Knobel, the halfback that has been placed in this position on the men, weighs 173 pounds and is expected to make gains through the Kansas Stone Wall. Opposite him will be Detwiler, who, though not holding the record such as Knobel, is

Coach Mosse Predicts Downfall of Tigers
Coach Mosse: "The team is in better condition than at any other time this season. Every man is to shape to play the whole game if necessary. The scrimmages this week have proven that the team has great offensive possibilities. I don't know whether Wilson or Magill will start the game at quarter back. We have a fine chance to win."
