TIGERS TOOK LAST CONTEST
REVENGED THEMSELVES BY 37 TO 21 SCORE.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 16, 1909
Every Kansan Made a Single Field Goal,—Ristine and Henley Tiger Stars.
Worn out and crippled from the three previous games with Washington and Missouri, the Jayhawkers lost Saturday night in Columbia by the score of 37 to 21. Scarcely a man on the squad was in condition to enter the contest but before the game was over every player had been in the contest. None of them was able to last the game through.
The Tigers anxious to avenge three defeats at the hands of Kansas played their best game of the year and Ristine and Henley could not be stopped. These men did the larger part of the scoring for Missouri. For Kansas every man made a single field goal.
Missouri played a hard, fierce game and made altogether sixteen fouls. Kansas was credited with only seven.

WHO WILL BE CHAMPIONS?
THE RACE IS STILL OPEN IN BOTH DIVISIONS.
Washington to Play the Deciding Games at Columbia and Lawrence this Week.
SOUTHERN DIVISION.
Won Lost Pct.
Washington 3 1 750
Kansas 4 2 666
Missouri 1 5 166
NORTHERN DIVISION.
Won Lost
Won Lost Pet.
Nebraska 5 3 575
Drake 3 3 500
Ames 2 4 333
With six more games to be played in the southern division and four in the northern division of the Missouri Valley conference, the championship is still in doubt. Washington with three games won and one game lost is leading in the South. To win the laurels Washington must take two games from Missouri this week and one from Kansas. If Washington breaks even at both Missouri and Kansas the championship will be a tie between the St. Louis players and Captain Woodward's athletes.
For Kansas to win the title she must take the two games with Washington on Saturday and Monday, unless Missouri takes two from the present leaders on Wednesday and Thursday. In such a case Kansas will need to take only one of the games here.
Washington, for the first time this year, will play off her own court this week. This should be a deciding factor in the final games.
In the North, Nebraska has played her full quota of eight games. Five of these have been victories. Drake, second in the race, has lost three and won three. This week Ames and Drake play the final two games and if the DesMoines school is victorious in both, the Cornhuskers will be tied for the honors.
So far Nebraska has won three out of four from Ames and two out of four from Drake while Drake and Ames have split even in the two games they have played
L. A. Ames who has completed his course in the Engineering school, left Friday for his home at Downs, Kas. From there he will go to Richfield, Idaho where he will be associated with Owen Smith,'08.
DR. PAYNE SPOKE IN CHAPEL.
Said We Should Plan Our Lives Ahead.
Dr. Wallace C. Payne of the Bible Chair gave a short address in chapel this morning. His theme was: "There is no road too long for the man who advances with becoming haste: no honors too distant for the man who prepares himself with thoroughness." In his talk Dr. Payne spoke of the late President Harper, of Chicago, who had planned his life twenty years in advance. Dr. Payne impressed the thought that everyone should first have a vision to work towards, and then should perfect a plan for reaching this ideal. Deliberation and determination are essential to any success.
