and we believe they will cover them
selves with glory this season, and win
for Buxton honor and renown.

MISSOURI TIGERS WEAK.
Grinnell, Iowa, Team Beat Them by
Score of Is to g.

Columbia, Mo-, Oct 13.-The Missouri
Tigers met defeat at the hands of the
Grinnell, Ia, eleven by a score of 10 to
g. Monday. The game was characterized
by looseness many delays, frequent de-
bates on football rules arising from the
inf1ictfon of penalties and witha1 was very
rough. Three men were put out of the
game for unnecessary rOughneSs.
Grinne1l scored two touchdownS in the
first half by line bucks and end runs. In
the second half they scored by a. goal from
the field, and as they failed to kick their
goals in the first half, their score stood Is
at the end of the game.
Missouri could not get together in the
first half and did not do anything. In the
middle of the second half they got to-
gether for a few lengths, and by mag
nificent burst of speed in which they

Jeffries prefers a part with a few
lines. He would not object to a think
ing part at a fat salary.
1t is said that time has been hanging
heavily on the hands of Jeffries. The
deer season is at an end and the chase
after wild hogs in the lowlandS adj
jacent to the Colorado river did not
afford the measure of excitement that
was looked for. Jim has frequently
sai1 that he would rather hunt than
scrap, but as the close of season for big
game seems to extend to championship
candidates, Jeffries is debarred from
indulging his fancies in either pas

Coach Booth Disappointed.

Lincoln, Neb, Oct. 13.-Coach Eooth
brought his band of Cornhuskers back
to Lincoln from their victory over Den
yer university. The Nebraska coach did
not hesitate to admit his appointment
over the failure of his pupils to defeat
Denver by a score much more decisive
than two touchdowns, but the factors
that initiated against Nebraska were
many and the coach was not without
consolation. Short halves, the enervat-
ing heat, rare atmosphere and a grid
iron laid in bed of sand, the latter
practically precluding end runs, enter
largely into the reckoning. but the ag-
gravating fumbling of Booths men
counted more than any other thing
against the Cornhuskers.
