FOUR LEFT IN RAGE
FOR VALLEY TITLE
Nebraska, Kansas, Kansas Ag
gies and Iowa State Are
Strong Contenders.
The race for Missouri Valley foot
ball honors has narrowed down to
a quartet of titular contenders fol
lowing the outcomes of last week's
contests. Nebraska looms high in
the calcium glare as a likely confer
ence winner even though the Kansas
eleven battled the Huskers to a
scoreless tie last Saturday. The four
teams demanding most serious at
tention are Nebraska, Kansas, Kair
sas Aggies and Iowa State.
From the close scores thus far
this season it is quite evident that
these Valley combinations are very
evenly matched and to date no sure
winner can be easily foreseen. How
ever, Oklahoma, Missouri and Wash
ington seem to have dropped from
the titular race by virtue of their
early season defeats, while Grinnell
and Drake do not appear on the slate
of the most promising elevens, neither
team meeting over four valley
schools. '
By far the outstanding mixes of
this week are booked between the
Kansas Aggies and the Jayhawks at
Lawrence and Nebraska and Mis
souri at Columbia. The results of
these twists will likely determine the
midseason champion. Iowa State is
expected to have little trouble in
turning back the Washington repre
sentatives from St. Louis while Grin
nell and Drake lock horns in a sec
ondary contest.
K. U. and Aggie About Equal.
Should Kansas be downed by the
southern Agriculture gridsters, Ne
braska will hold the upper hand on
the Valley providing Missouri does
not kick the proverbial juice from the
dope bucket and trim the Cornhusk
ers at Columbia. The Kansas farm
ers seem to have the edge over the
Staters in the Jayhawk mix Satur
day and should cause K. U. to drop
from the running for Valley honors,
however comparative scores show the
two aggregations to be on nearly
equal terms.
Should the Cornhuskers set back
Missouri and the Aggies trounce the
staters, the strong contenders will
doubtless be Nebraska, Iowa State
and the Aggies. Iowa looks good
following the knotted count with
the Kansas Aggies and may pull the
unexpected and finish the season un
defeated. Should the dope follow
the outlined path and the Scarlet
and Cream warriors defeat Iowa at
Ames the 17th of November and out
point the Aggies in the stadium Tur
key day, another Valley champion
ship banner will be hoisted alongside
the numerous buntings upheld on
Cornhusker sod.

MEALS 30c and up
of the faculty, alumni and friends of
the University, are also due now.
Statements have been going out to
all subscribers to the stadium.except-
ing students, this week. Nearly
6,000 statements will have been
mailed when all of the bills are out.
A surprisingly large number of
persons who have maac ataaium
pledges are paying these in full at
this time. While the pledges are
worded so as to show clearly that
only the second one-fifth of the en
tire amount is due at this time, many
persons prefered to pay the entire
amount of their pledge rather than
let it hang on The memorial asso
ciation urges all who can to pay their
entire pledge now. It said, in con
nection with the statement as regards
the payment campaign, "Nebraska
students should realize the full mean
ing behind the statement in the sta
dium story which appeared in the
Daily Nebraskan Tuesday: 'Castles
can be built of air, but it takes real
money to build a stadium.' Nebras
ka's stadium is not a castle. Stu
dents who attended either the Okla
homa or Kansas games in the new
stadium will realize full well that
Nebraska has a stadium of which
it can justly be prcuJ.
"But it does take money to build
a stadium. The memorial association
pays interest at the rate of 6 per cent
on ill! the money it borrows ad
spends on the stadium. The money
represented in student pledges alone
represents nearly $100,000 in bor
rowed money, which means that the
association must pay $500 a month
for the money it has borrowed on
the strength of student pledges. It
is easy to see how students can help
materially by paying their pledges in
full, at least in making payments in
advance. The stadium needs the
money, and the more it can collect,
the nearer will be the ultimate goal
of the stadium which will include two
oval ends enclosing a fine indoor
running track."
KANSAS WINS MORAL
VICTORY UNCLE JIMMY
HUSKER DECLARES
(Continued from Page 1) -
heard that if was a moral victory
Well, I went back to the shack,
Somehow I was tired and I decided
to turn in early.
"I'd hardly gotten stretched out
in the top bunk before Bill came in
and told me about the game. He'
seen it and he'd talked before the
game with Totsie'v Clark and 'Phog'
Allen and Tom Smith, the man whose
toe kicked the six mighty goal
against Nebraska way back in the
days when Nebraska still took a sane
view of her Valley neighbors. Bill
told me that Potsie and Phog and
Tom were walking around with
look that plainly said they knew
who'd swallow the canary. And the
game why Bill made it sound like
a real football contest.
'Old Bill somehow has mellowed
with his whitening hair. Time was
when he'd have been sorely dis
eruntled over such a thing as a tie
with Kansas. He'd have instantane
ously joined the first 10,000 im
promptu wizard coaches who knew
what was wrong and how to right it
He'd have put Locke at center
Berque at quarter, Bassett at half,
shuffled the rest of the deck sharply
and delt out a beautiful royal flush
just like that.
"Well, old Bill sort of set me think
ing and after he turned in I sat there
toasting my feet on the apron of
the siftove and just ruminated.
"An old mans thoughts grow
wearisome in the telling, O. G., but
I was thinking of myself of how I'd
neglected the game because I was
so dead sure we'd win any way, and
of the way I felt about the tie and
the way I got to silently cussing
everyone and everybody before Bill
came in.
"Seems to me we Nebraskans just
have a bad case of the swell head
We've lorded it over our neighbors
so long that we can't see anything
but big scores and Saint-George-and-
the-Dragon noces. It makes us mad
to think that Kansas, the Aggies,
Missouri and Ames should dare to
contest with us. What right have
they to have real football teams.
What right have they to ven try to
beat us.

his wings and boastingly remarked,

sert that we own the ValleyT Yes
sir, some times it seems to me that
we have just naturally elected our-
selves the chosen people. I guess that
Ihey had the same sort of flaring
egotism and fatal pride after they'd
made a few miles on their jourrey.
They probably twiddled their noses
and looked askance at the Philis
tines.
"Probably Moses and his fighting
men were a pretty darn efficient
bunch of men. They knew what they
were up against from the first, but
after they spent a few years listen
ing to the vain-glorious adulation of
their camp followers the whole fight
ing force began looking down upon
their enemies too. Probably they
got licked in the next battle and
maybe they got severaMickings in
a row. ui course aner me ursi
licking I imagine that the camp fol
lowers and those unable to get into
the force of fighters began growling
and criticising:
You can fairly hear 'em say, 'Yep,
that big stiff that carriers the spear
on the right flank of the phalanx is
no good. That little fellow right
back of him is yellow and any way
I don't think much of that fellow
Moses. Why don't we elect a new
leader.'
"Yes sir, the more I've thought
that game over the more contented
I am that Kansas had to be satisfied
with a moral victory and a good
licking."
"So you liken us to the chosen peo
ple, Uncle Jimmy?" asked the Old
Grad.
"Yes, the likeness is there all right
I guess. I only hope that hietory
won't repeat itself. The chosen peo
ple spent forty years in the wilder
ness and I dare say that egotism, ar
rogance and a refusal to estimate
their opponents wisely were the chief
