When football supporters at the University of Kansas questioned one of Referee Masker's decisions in the Nebraska game, they were accused in some quarters of being poor losers and of lacking the spirit of true sportsmen. What those selfsame critics will say about the charges brought by the Missouri rooters in connection with the Thanksgiving game will be looked for with interest in Lawrence. The two cases are not parallel. Referee Masker's decision in the Nebraska game was questioned on the ground of interpretation of rules. That two other officials in the game disagreed with Mr. Masker was evidence that there was room for a difference of opinion. But no one questioned Mr. Masker's motives. He made a conscientious decision, which would have been the same whichever side had made the play. The Missourians, on the other hand, make broad hints that the umpire in the Missouri game was unfair that he discriminated against the Tigers. It is a pity the Missouri supporters feel that way about it. The charge that a West Point officer who has always borne the reputation of a clean athlete and official deliberately sacrificed that reputation by conspiring to "throw" a game—for that is what the Missouri accusations amount to—is really preposterous. The committee of Missouri alumni which has been appointed to investigate the alleged discrimination is not likely to reach any result other than to gather up a lot of testimony which will serve only to show that there was due justification for all the penalties imposed.
A determined effort will be made by the alumni of the Universities of Kansas and Missouri, who live in Kansas City, to retain the annual game between the two schools in Kansas City. Of course it is to the immediate interest of the alumni to have the game played there, and the game is financially worth while to Kansas City. A large percentage of students of the two schools doubtless would prefer to see the game at Kansas City. But the governing boards of Missouri Valley colleges have decided that the best interests of the Universities and
of intercollegiate athletics will in the long run be served by playing all games on college grounds, although the observance of such a rule means financial loss to the athletic associations. Whether the Kansas City alumni can effect a change in the ruling of the governing boards will not be known until the conference of University regents and presidents meets in Des Moines in January. Meanwhile, the Daily Missourian is asking, "What will Columbia do with the crowds that come to see the game?" and the same question is a pertinent one in Lawrence. If the rule holds, there are a lot of big problems to be worked out under the new order of things.
One Kansas City paper printed some interviews the morning after the big game with coaches, captains and faculty representatives of the two schools interested. The Kansas interviews had a tone of satisfaction with the result of the game, while the Missouri utterances were replete with disappointment and chagrin. Did our friends across the border fail to consider the possibility that they might lose the game? It is barely possible that they placed too great reliance on the supposed superiority of eastern coaching over the home-grown Kansas variety. Last year in Kansas City more praise of Roper for achieving the victory after the game was heard than the team received,-really too much in view of the narrow margin by which the Tigers won.

The library has recently received from Theodore M. Davis of Newport, R. I., the gift of five folio volumes containing illustrations and descriptions of royal tombs of ancient Egypt. The books are a valuable addition to the an tiquity and archeology department, both because of the subject matter and the expensive character of the volumes themselves. They are printed in London on a high grade of paper which shows the photographs in an excellent manner. One of the books presents "The Funeral Papyrus of Iouyia" and the other four tell of the tombs of old Egyptian kings and queens with equally unpronounceable names. Mr. Davis, from whom Professor A. M. Wilcox secured the gift is a wealthy gentleman who devotes much money to archeological investigations in Egypt and the presentation of the information to the public.

Shirt Perfection
If you'll take the trouble to compare, you'll find a wonderful difference between the average showing of men's shirts and our collection of Manhattans. The "class," the "snappiness" and rare blending of colors in Manhattans are features which appeal to the smart dresser on sight because they portray the highest expression of Good Form and True Individuality. We take
pleasure in showing the only full lines of Manhattans in this part of the country---regular and extra sizes in all the new midseason effects,
After looking at the ordinary line of Underwear you will be astonished to see the immense variety we carry. There's nothing like it in this community. Absolutely full lines of the best makes on earth and a great demonstration of value-giving at each price, 50c, 75c, $1, $1.50 to $3, union and two-piece Suits.
$1.50, $2 up to $3.50
The Silk Cravats we are specializing at 50c are attracting a lot of buyers. They are the nearest styles, best silks and richest weaves you ever saw at the price. Finer ones at $1.00 to $3.00.
