TIGER PICKS FEATHERS FROM JAYHAWK'S TAIL
Missourians Get Breaks, Punch
And Support and Win
Turkey Day Battle
Lewis and Travis are Stars
K. U. doesn't own the valley.
M. U. Quarter and Tackle Pave The Way to Victory With Fallen Kansans
K. U. doesn't own the valley.
This statement applies to football honors at least, for "Chuck Lewis," and "Brick Travis," individuals hailing from Kansas City and Tarkio and playing on the Tiger eleven, were the first to win the national scene in which the final ownership of the "Valley" was settled upon the University of Missouri for the rest of the year.
The Jayhawkers started off with a rush, and advanced the ball across Missouri territory for the first ten minutes of the first quarter, but two successive fumbles, one by Pringle on the Tiger 15-yard line, and the other by Wood on the Missouri punt out following, both recovered by the speedy Missouriists, took the drive out of the field in front of Pringle in the hall. Pringle and Mandeville reed off two successive downs, and got well into Missouri territory when Fringle's fumble came, followed closely by that of Wood
KANSAS ENDS OUTRUN
The Kansas line was not impregnable as the Nebraska and Oklahoma games forecast, and Travis at the tackle position seemed to have no trouble passing the ball to go through. The speedy Lewis had no trouble in going around th end for small gains. Lewis at quarter outback Lonborg four yards to the punter in the end zone, and team, and onslan Lonborg, fastest Valley ends.
When the Kansas team came on the field the stands went wild, and the first "Rock Chalk" rolled thunderly across the valley. The driwn groove of the presentatives took the ball arply across the field to the Missouri goal, and the cheerleaders were unable to quiet the crowd so that the team could hear their signals. Then Clemple's fumble, in the very shadowed postals, and the enthusiasm embed in a out of the Tiger bleachers.
MANY FAIL TO SEE K. U. SCORE
From then on the Missouri roots
completely arownd the efforts of Kan-
sas. When the second Missouri
touchdown name, in the third quar-
cus, Kansas roots started leaving the
ground so they could sail the
south bleachers failed to see the
brilliant run by Mandeville in the last
moment of play that kept the Tigers
from blanking the Jayhawk.
The first score came on a bad break in the second quarter. Lewis booted the ball from midfield to the Kansas goal, the ball taking an errate bound kick and bounced back on borg kicked out 27 yards, and Missouri returned the ball to the 1-yard line on straight football. The Kansas line held for three downs here, but Lewis went over for a downchown on the fourth try. Lewis kicked out to Goepel, who fumbled and lost the ball. Lewis then missed the remainder of the period consisted of a kicking duel between Lewis and Lonborg
LEWIS ATTEMPTS DROP KICK
In the first part of the second half, Nettles broke through the line and threw Collins for a loss, but Peterson scored twice to win. Ruth caught a pass from Lewis that netted ten yards. Lewis drove through tackle for twelve yards, and on the next play flipped a pass twenty-two yards over the line of braceimage to Ruth, waiting under the goal posts, who nabbed the ball for the second and last Tiger touchdown. The referee intercepted with the ball in Massachusetts possession in midfield.
For the first time in the season, Captain Laslett had the experience of seeing an opponent go around his end for a gain of fifteen yards, in the second half, in which he missed three try for a drop through two minutes later Peterson dodged through the entire Kansas team for a touchdown, but holding in the line brought the ball back and assessed a fifteen-yard penalty against Missouri. Lewis attempted two more dribbles in a attempt to pile up the score, but he was not able.

STUDENTS TO ATTEND MISSIONS CONVENTION
Forty-Two Volunteer for Meet ing at Des Moines, December 30 to January 4
"Forty-two K. U., delegates will attend a Student Volunteer conference or Foreign Missions to be held at Dear Moines, Iowa, from December 31 to January 4, which promises to be the biggest of its kind ever held," announces the delegation, who is organizing the delegation that will attend from here.
"The convention is meeting for the purpose of actually facing the foreign mission situation in the world today and of considering the responsibility of American college men and women in regard to the serious problems which must be solved. It is a chance for the colleges to show their skills in this area," reports, seven thousand students from all parts of the United States and five hundred foreign delegates have sent in their reservations.
"The most noted association workers in the country will speak at the convention, including John R. Mott, Sherwood Eddy and Robert Spear. Seven similar student conventions were organized on intervals but this one bids fair to be in a class by itself. The University of Kansas quota for the convention is really only thirty-three but I am arranging for the surplus number who will attend now. There will possibly be a chance for three or four students to participate still desiring to atted should immediately report at Myers Hall to see what arrangements can be made." Several churches of Lawrence have already signified their willingness to assume a part of the expenses of the trip and this fact has made it possible to send such a large delegation.

Eight of the twelve cars were de-ralled but remained upright, railroad advices stated. The engine and first two cars passed the switch, then the eight cars left the track, the last two remaining on the rails.

In Answer to Governor's Call Forty Start Work Thanks-giving Vacation
Seventy-Five to go Tonight
Football Eleven is First to Velunteer—Students in National Guard
From calculus to coal digging!
That's the jump taken by forty-two students, who this morning, instead of returning to classes after the Thanksgiving vacation, as scheduled, they went to Wuriburg surface coal mines starting work to keep the people from freezing.
Seventy-five more University men will depart tonight at 6'clock on the Santa Fe, bound for Fitchburg to join the forty who went wunday in an amphibian volunteer miners. The University, through Dr. James Naimith, received a call for fifty men this morning. Early this afternoon John Cunningham, a local commissioner, telephoned Dee Naimith for twenty-five more men.
WORKERS PAID $ 5 A DAY
The workers will receive $ 5 a day and lodging. Meals will probably be served army style and at cost price. Transportation will be paid to and from the coal fields provided that the worker remains at work until return time, but in that case his transportation to Lawrence will not be paid Volunteers should be able-bodied and be preferred if they have had experience as miners or mechanics.
Students who wish to volunteer for service should call at Doctor Naismith's office, room 105 Robinson Gymnasium.
The varsity football squad, twenty three of "K.U. Finsest," was the first to volunteer. Their action came as a body, immediately after the game, when a representative of the governor appealed to them in the dress-room. The call he sent went broadcast Friday to five dozen who had not go home, and more than fifty men signed up before neon to help dig coal.
STUDENTS AND GUARDS GO TO
PITTSBURG
Saturday morning the heaviest and most experienced of the men were notified to report Sunday night at 9:30 at the gym with the necessary equipment of heavy clothes and boots, and on their arrival, were taken to the station and loaded on a Petra tracks together with the Santa Suerte units of the National Guard, and sent to Pittsburgh, where this morning entered upon their duties as "strip coal" miners.
Five hundred men from over the state, where the appeal extended to, were included in the first call, but fourteen were hired hourly by Dr. James Naismith, a charge of the registration of volunteers. "We have more than one hundred and thirty names signed up to go, including two faculty members," said Dr. Naismith this morning. "We are only waiting word from Topeka to attend." Wint Smith, regular right guard on the K. U., eleven, had charge of the first detachment which left last night, and also aidd Dr. Naismith in the registration of volunteers.
No intimation of the time the volunteers are to stay in the coal field has been announced, all profess ignorance. The setters, however, have the right to resign at any period, and return.
No definite action on the work and credit lost to the students has been taken, but the Chancellor Saturday declared that no student would lose money or material in need to help out the fuel situation. It is expected that the matter will be handled in somewhat the same manner as the military credit in case of a medical student left school before the end of the term for military service.
Five members of the football squad left with the detachment Sunday night, as the others, not forcing the quickness of action, had gone home for the holidays. Local people were appalled at that came from the free students who had remained in Lawrence for the holidays.
