THE BEE: OMAHA. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY" lfi. 1911. Missouri Valley Papers Say That Iowa Should Withdraw from the Conference SAY HAWKEYES SHOULD CO sasasnanmams ' live Fa pen Advocate Withdrawal from "Big- Seven." 5ERVTJ3 FEH10D OF VSEFUUTESS Heslstce and Lender, Maroln ewe, Kansas (1(1 tar, Df Mlfi t'nit llal and lallr lowaa All 'jnvnr Kamf tnnrs. 'Must tne llawkeyes he going?" A little more than a tfk ago The Be asked this question, having referenee to the relation of the tnlveralty of, Iowa to the Missouri Valley conference, an organisation In which It ha been a factor for brewing trouble during tha last four years. It was sug gested that th Iowa City school had served la period of usefulness In this league and that It ought to out laose and confUe Its actlvltlea to the Western conference, an athletic league of which It alo la a mem ber, j , ' N Since th ' publication . of the article In these columns five pabem have declared that Iowa should lea llie Mlaaourl Valley leaaue. Those publications are Th Kama City Btstv' The I.lnroln New, Tha Den Molnea Register and leader. The Pea Molnea Capital and tits Dally lowan. the Utter being" the official student publica tion of the Iowa state nnlverslty. lead ing athletes at low also have come out In favor of. cutting away from the second conference. Editorially tho Tully lowan has twice siKiken In favor of getting away from the Missouri Valley today. It has advocated this action In no uncertain terms. The Register and leader snld: "There is no rpirstlon that the presence of Iowa In both conferences has been a trouble maker In the Missouri valley body. Its withdrawal from tha second league will slmplfy some of tha troubles of the conference at least." Mast Ihk Bettrean Tat. The Kansas City Star: "If the Hawk eyes care ta llntrer ry "Big Eight' company they will have to pass up their Missouri valley neighbors 'lr Is quite apparent that Iowa Is preparing to break, away from the Missouri valley tip. There , are several reasons that lead to the conclusion that a loud explosion ' Is due." The I.lnooln Newt i and the lre Moines Capital have several times openly stated that the Hawkeyea had no place in the Missouri valley body so long as they try to bind themselves to tha "Wig Eight." These papers argue that Iowa cannot re main In the second league much longer. Can Kall i'lll Tlace. In commenting on the situation of the Missouri valley conference tha Kansaa City f-'tar says: ; "Then suppose loaa sisns up the MIs aourl valley ghost "t Ther are other echools ready and willing to stt-p Into the breach. , The Kansas-Aggies desire a place In the conference. They will obey con ference ruling this year even to the hiring of a coach whit will remain at the school throughout the entire year. The Aggies are worthy foes of Kansas, Missouri, Ne braska and the jowa Aggies. Then there la Oklahoma. The athletes of Benny Owens obeyed conference rifles last year. Tills year they win be stronger by far, as the first year o( a radlrtU '.change always Is the weakest year., Yashbura, too. would be iut fora plue .

And piihape, whq knows? jhs conference may X. etonie stronger for the change." A similar sentiment hat been expressed 1 y molt of the paper throughout the Ml weuil valley ri-tlon. ? , . Has lire. Irvskle M alter. The Des Moines Register and leader ex presses its opinion lit the following lan guage: . . - , . De'clnlon i the Bute university that the desire (6 'leave the Missouri valley body, as presented 'to tne public In the fdltorlal of '.the Mat university organ, will simplify some of the troubles of the conference at least. There Is no question that the presence of Iowa In both confer ences has been. a trouble maker in the Missouri valley body. Graduates of the Ktate. university lit th-a Moines have gone so far as to make the chains that -Iowa has betq forced to lake certain atands by (he HlgiKlght thai It. might hinder th work of tha jlllsxourl valley association. Pi eminent lraka alumni have received aev eral hints lu' lUe. course of the last year that Iowa ought to b cumielled to make a vholu between one of the two associa tions. Diak men In general have always held thai ioaa would b a benefit to the Missouri valley,' but their general sentiment In this regard has changed in the last month. . ' V "Apparently, Jcwa is uigtftng a delutloo when they insist that they can retain rela tions with lke and Amea and withdraw from th Missyurl valley reference.

Not enough wil done to the foot ball rules to bother plnyers when the season begins next 'fall. If H.be true that the American game la headed toward a better realization of a model outdoor pastime than It has been In the past th rule makers can afford to progress by easy Stages, and the players should rest their impatient souls and be satisfied to go forward safely If not swiftly. It doe not appear that the forward pass will get out of the game this year. It may be dispensed with some year. Th forward pasa Is derived from basket ball and it was forced on foot ball by these wkos foot ball training was purely arti ficial. Some day it may be relegated to the waste basket, but. it ,1 evident teat day la not likely to b forthcoming until th play has resulted in serious Injury or It hue : been agreed -that It Ms-; not -if air .to threaten good foot- ball .-player with a chani to gain by good busket ball, players. .

Where the blood is greatly -weakened with the scrofulous poison, the disease attacks other portions of the system besides the glands, and then we see its effects in weak eyes, poorly developed bodies, running sores and ulcers, skin diseases, especially on the scalp, ca tarrhal troubles, etc. Scrofula usually makes its appearance in childhood, though manhood or womanhood may be reached before the poison pro grtsses to the age of outward mani festation . S. S. S. is the one real corn for Scrofula. It is a blood purifier without an equal, and it cures this destructive blood poison by removins; every trace of the infection from the circulation. S. S. S., in addition to cleansing ' and purify inir the blood, assists the stomach and di gestive members in the creation of new blood cor puscles and other nourishing mat ter for the circu lation. S. S. S. increases the resistive powers of the system and by strength ening and building up the vitality, allows nature to make a perfect and lasting cure.
