If Jayhawkers Win Turkey
Day Contest K. U.
Stands Mid-Way
in Valley
Four teams, Drake, Missouri, Nebraska, and Grinnell, are goal for first place in the Missouri valley championship race. Each of these teams has lost one valley game this season, but they have to have to defeat the daybreakers on "Turkey" day, if they are to realize their position in the first place.
The Iowa State Celtics outpied and defended Drake, the valley leaders, last Saturday. This was the first defeat of the season for the Iowa State. The strong Hawkeye team disposed of Drake. Alexis in a one-and-aid game.
Pikers Have Failed to Seure
The Oklahoma Sooners succeeded in announcing their second wipe of the team, which ended an innings in the ninth inning driven by a score of 7 to 0. The Pikers have not been able to secure a single point against a valley opponent this season. Last season, the team scored every event thrown clear except running
Grinell was defeated by Creston, a non-commissioned school. Although it was Creston's first victory over a Missouri valley school, it had an exceptional team, winning from Marquette by a score of 21 to 7.
Jayhawkers May Break Even
If the Jayhawkers are able to turn in a victory over the Tigers, Thursday, they will finish in the half-way mark. This would have seemed hardly possible four weeks ago when the Jayhawks had three consecutive defeats against them by valley teams. At the present time Kauai is their home place. If the Tigers lost to Kansas they will drop from a 3-2 first place to fourth place.
Only two valley games remain to be played. Beside the mini Tiger Jayhawk game, the Kane's Aggen play the Oklahoma eleven at Neumann, on Thanksgiving. Nebraska won the Oregon Bison linebacker, Nov. 21, and the Oklahoma nets to Jacksonville, to meet the news of Florida, Nov. 27.

Mercury Helps Growers
Orange Orchards Being Tested for Weather Changes

*Customer Service*
Los Angeles, CA. Treat Fruit thieremometers, similar to those used by the doctors, are being employed by the Fruit growers of Southern California in order that they may know when the oranges are brittle. They wear a protective shirt on the skin of the oranges and warn the grower of approaching bruises.
Twenty seven degrees F., is the danger point for orange, and the fruit thermometer makes it possible for the grave owner to start his heating plant in time to save his fruit. Otherwise, depending on ordinary sheltered thermometers he might lose an hour of heat or be unseasonably long hours. Or being in a thirty cool, he might delay operations and have his crop.
Loss by frost in 1924 was unusually small due to the fact that there was very little rain, and the trees were heavily matched with the soils. In 1928, particularly in 1928, due to a heavy freeze, following mild weather.
Find Proterocarabaeus, Earliest Scarab, in China
(Geology Service)
Peking, Nov. 25.—A serenable benth of an age that makes King Tat's reign a more stable than wealth age, where geologists in that most vegetable land of old things, China, B. C. Tum, of the Chinese geological survey, working in Shanxi, the sacred province of north China, found the fossil beak in rocks of the Cretaceous period, or Age of Fishes, of an age estimated at fifteen million years.
This makes the scarcity easily the oldest beetle in the world. Evidently the genus has been very conservative in the matter of evolution, for this primitive scarcab resembles very closely his present day *n*th degree beetle. He has been named Praterescarabaeus, or "anticaric scarneb."

Doctor Allen tells of the Missouri-Kansas game of 1923, saying that this was one of his few hours, without sitting down to a real meal before playing the championship game with the Tigers, and were victors by stauch batting.
Doctor Allen has devoted 100 pages of this book to "Athletic Injuries and Emergencies." Another chapter is "Preparations for the 60 Season, which tells of the court officials, the legal officers, and choosing the men.
The third chapter, "individual of
"ense," describes the free throw, drowning
observe recovering a field ball, the tip
of a stick, or a concerned victim with
building an offense.
"Defense," "Team Offence," and "Team Defense," are other chapters in the book. His closing chapter is "Inspirational Coaching," in which he talks of building tradition, getting next to the men, "Getting Cheat To Your Team," and "In the Dressing Room—Just before the Battles."
The book is illustrated with 50 action half-tones. Tadman Ackerman, captain of this year's basketball team, Wilfred Beltigard, and Sianne Lindley, are the players who posed for the pictures.
An introduction is written by Paul Endicke, captain of the ever-watchful one quitter of 1922, and one of his active players, the game for ever lasted.

Zuppke Writes of "The Best Player I Ever Coached and The Headiest Play I Ever Saw"
"Because of all that the play required, and all that it accomplished for us, we still look upon it as the handiest player ever made by Illinois in a football game," is the statement made by Robert C. Zumple, head football coach at the University of Illinois, about a quadruple pass made by Kansas graduate minor and quarterback on the Illinois team of 1914.
The article describing the play is headed "The Best Player I Ever Combined and the Headiest play I Knew So" and was printed in the Philadelphia Public Ledger of Nov. 16.
This is how Zupke describes the play, "The triple running-pass play we land in 1914 was a great play. As proof, he put my ray that since I have reached five teams in its execution, but some of them could use it. In my first draft I did not, otherwise, I do not know, I do know that they never used it."
"Our Cheese game that someone 10-kill all we had to win. Our stunt asked to be checked when we first tried this triple pass from just kick of our own 10-yard line. It was player worked the same way. Our corner passed the ball to Pogus (One of Illinois' greatest backfield players). He, in turn made a internal pass to Maccaroni, who faked a forward pass and would surround the hall to the right, to Clutch. It worked perfect the first time we used it for, when Clark was downed he had gained 60 yards and
the ball was on Chicago's 4-pair line. "We tried the line three times without gaining an inch. On the fourth down, goal to go, and four yards from it, the Clark again called the signal for the triple pass. This 'like nerve as any frequent handling of the ball near the goal line does as the defense is always charging in 'last.'"
"That Illinois team had serve. The ball was snapped to Pogue and Pogue passed it backward to Meeber, who in turn kicked a forward pass, but instead moved the ball to Clark. All these moves went off in the play. But they were the play, except the running of Clark after getting the ball."
"Right there was where Chicago missed things up, for when Chickag lost the half a Chicago man dived into him and got hold of an ankle. Running was out of the question, Patroh had gone down the field and in it he came on in the situation and tossed him a forward pass for the first score.
"That touchdown meant more than the points it gave us, for the quick thinking of Clark in pulling the play on the moment so disorganized the defense that it made it possible for us to score seven more touchdowns."
According to Zuppe, Clark along with Grange and Pogue of Illinois, and Barrett of Washington, and Lee, once played football, players he ever coached.
