What a thrill of joy Captain Hackney of the Tiger football team must feel as he lies in the hospital, to think that all the hopes and ambitions for future happiness of the University of Missouri are placed in his big toe. When the star quarterback and kicker suffered a wrenched shoulder Tiger football stock went to about 32 degrees below zero among the Missourians. And what is still worse it remains in this position notwithstanding the frenzied efforts of the University Missourian to the contrary. Most of the most loyal Tiger supporters have ascribed to Hackney's educated toe a reverence and esteem such as is seldom given to any mortal. They regard the accident that deprived the team of this metatarsus as a blow to all hopes for a successful season. As the University Missourian says, "Gloom, dark clouds without a silver lining, hovered over the camp of the Missouri Tiger when Captain Hackney was taken to the hospital." And the Tiger followers refuse to be comforted and in accents loud bewail the absence from the scene of battle of Hackney's big toe. Whereupon the University Missourian begs with tears in its eyes for a return of a lost fighting spirit The situation at Missouri is precarious for them. Too late they preceive that the Captain's toe is only mortal. But nevertheless Mr. Hackney's toe is the devotion of every loyal Missourian and it will go thundering through the ages, emblazoned and embossed on the Tiger's escuteche, as the type of all that is good. It is symbolical of success, it is synonymous with happiness to every student at the University of Missouri. Hackney's toe, long may it wave Are you going to Manhattan?
