HILL THE TIGERS CAPTAIN.
Big Guard From independence Hon
ored at Columbia

Columbia, Mo, Dec. 22.-The annual
meeting of the Missouri University
Athletic association was held last even
ing attended by a large number of
students. The object of the meeting was
to elect captain for next years foot
ball team and to discuss the business
affairs of the association.
There were two candidates for cap
tain, Adam Hill of Independence and
Karl Kruze of Buffalo, n. Y. Both have
excellent records and the contest was
close, resu1tine in the election of Adam
Hill by a very small majority
Hill has, perhaps, been of more ser
vice to the university than any other
member of the eleven For five years
he has left the position of left guard
and made it one of the strongest points
of the team. In the recent game with
Kansas City he distinguished himself
on many occasions, and is considered
by many to be the best man that ever
played football at Columbia. HIS ex-
eeutive ability is undoubted, and it is
believed that under his direction the
Tigers will do credit to the state next
