Pikers and Huskers Will Play for Title Of Missouri Valley
Question Raised as to Validity of Claim, Considering Number of Games
The Washington Pikers and the Nebraska Huskers are planning to decide the Valley Championship for this season at a post-season game to be played between Dick Rutherford's eleven and his alma mater in St. Louis Saturday. The two teams have each won the only Valley game they have played this season. They contend that the winner of the Nebraska-Washington clash should be awarded the Valley championship.
No Valley team has been awarded the championship in the past with but two Valley games played, and the directors will not recognize as the Valley champions, the winners of a post-season game between two teams who have played but a single Valley game. The winner of the contest will be the popular Valley champion, but an award by the Valley heads would be practically impossible and is very improbable.
The Huskers base their right on such a claim by their victory over the Jayhawks, who in turn defeated the Aggies. The Pikers have won over the Drake eleven in their only Valley game. The Pikers also won over the St. Louis U. eleven at St. Louis on Thanksgiving Day, and Rutherford classes his team as championship material on the strength of that victory.
The Huskers have a strong team this year and should find little trouble in disposing of the Pikers. Rutherford's ambition is to score a win over the team he made victorious in the Valley a few years ago when he played with the mighty Chamberlin on the Husker team.
The Jayhawkers can claim no right to the Valley title because of their lose to the Huskers on the Lincoln Pond. The Kansans will not play any post-season games.

W.A.A. Gets More Than 300 In Membership Campaign
In its membership campaign last week the Women's Athletic Association increased its number to three to four hundred women. This is the largest membership the association ever has had. The membership previously never has exceeded two hundred fifty. The increased membership is produced by members of the University women are taking in athletics since the Senate ruling compelling all University women to take some form of exercise.
No woman can enter any athletic contests unless she is a member of the association. A membership in the association also admits the holder to all the woman's basketball games and the annual circus.
the annual election of officers for the association will be Thursday. All nomination petitions must be in tonight. The first ticket to appear is the "All athletic A" ticket. Those running on this ticket are Carol Martin, president; Doria Drought, business manager; Frank Tsant, secretary; Wealthy Babacock, senior representative; Iris Russell, junior representative; Clara Nigg, sophomore representative; Florence Chase, freshman representative.
The other ticket is Irene Tihen,
president; Wahagelt Wagstaff, secretary-
treasurer; Jeannene Parkinson, Dor-
sen; and Anna Wilhelm, class representatives.
Challenge Goes Begging
The Army-Navy fooshball game at McCook Field will not be played. The soldiers have not taken the Navy challenge and the demobilization of the army here will cause the game to be impossible. The sailors practiced a week before they gave up hope of finding some army company to take their challenge.

Start Regular Gym Work For All Students Soon
Recreative Games Will be Feature of Physical Work When S. A, T. C. Ends
S. A. T. C. Ends
Regular physical education for the men students of the University will probably be resumed very soon, now that the S. A. T. C. has been discontinued. Whether the old system of gym three times a week will be used, has not been definitely decided, said Coach Hamilton. - That rule compels all seniors and junior to take regular physical exercise twice a week, and all sophomores and freshmen three times a week.
It is doubted by the committee on physical education for men, that the gymnasium will border on the military aspect at all. Coach Hamilton hopes to give the men recruitive games, the kind that will keep them
"Cargeball and pushball are two good sports, and are real, rough-and-tumble games," said the coach, "so if the men think they are getting something soft, they will be surprised. The men are in fine condition now from their military drill, and the idea is to keep them so."
If any change in the old system is to be made at all, it will be taken up at the Senate meeting next Tuesday night. Otherwise things will move in the gymnasium, as far as the men are concerned, in the pre-war way.
Prof. Goldsmith Denies Capt. Scher's Charges
Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, in answer to Captain Scher's charges that the liquor bottles found in the officers' club by the police had been left there by members of the Kanza fraternity, has issued the following statement: "To Whom It May Concern:
"I in view of the statement of Captain B. T. Scher that the liquor and beer bottles found at the officers' club were left there by the Kanza club, the owners of the house, I wish to say, first, that he has been absolutely misrepresented in such a statement, which he did not make of his own knowledge; second, that I lived in the house with the Kanza club with my wife and small daughter for three years, and during that time never saw liquor or any intoxicating beverage, although I have been in all parts of the house and in every room, from the top floor to the cellar, frequently; third, that I was in the house on the day the Kanza club moved out and inspected every room and the cellar, and there were no liquor or beer bottles in the house.
"I can make affidavit to the above facts."
GOLDWIN GOLDSMITH."

Foregather in New York
To the Kansan:
While on an inspection tour in New York City in the interest of the United States Gas Service I had the good fortune of meeting one of the former members of the editorial staff of The Kansan, Glendon Alivine, now of the New York Tribune staff. Allvine reminded me of the fact that our dear Alma Mater was still flourishing
