A Punting Duel.
The game brought forth the most re-
markable punting duel ever seen on
WashbuIn field. Throughout the first
half both sides continually called the
signal to kick. A few ineffectual at
tempts to pierce the line, the punting
formation, kick, the consequent
scampering and hurrying-that was the
story of the first twenty-five minutes of
play. And the booting on both sides
was remaf kable Millice was averaging
IS yards for Washburn while Morgan
was close behind him for the Tigers.

had the 1limD on Caldwell and Smiley
lght along, who played the positions for
Washburn. The tackling of the Colo
rado ends was little short of ferocious,
but it was clean.
White the Star.
To Left Hanback, White of the Wash
burn team go the laurels of being the
star of the game. Though he made the
tumble which indirectly gave Colorado
the advantage and the game, his bril-
liant work with the exception of that
one unf0l tunate instance brought out
cheers from the grandstand again and

not count on finding holes in the Mis-

wonderfully strong, but their work
was inconsistent. We We're lucky to

vacation. Donald and Drummer are
the only candidates for the position.
Both men are popular and are equally
capable of captaining the team Dom

than Brunner, but Brunner will prob
ably play fullback next year and will
in this position be better able to direct
the team than Donald who will be in
the line. Probably the election win be
made unanimous by one of the men
withdrawing from. the race. The two
big tackles are great chums and each

Referees Comments.
t'It was one of the cleanest games I
ever saw said Referee Hildreth Frost
of Colorado. The score should have
peen to 0. There We're lots of close
decisions but none Of them counted
directly in the result of the game. I
never saw teams so evenly matched.
Their defense was something remark
able. Both teams were in great con-
dition, and fit to the minute for the
struggle. This was shown by the fact
that there We're no injuries. But for
that one bad tumble the score could
have been nothing else than 0 to o."

Kansas City, Dec. before the
largest crowd that ever witnessed a
Thanksgiving football game in Kansas
City, the orange and black of Missouri
university was trampIed beneath the
feet of the victorious Kansas eleven at
Association park yesterday afternoon.
And it was an ignominious defeat, as
Missouri was not able to score a single
point, and when the game was called,
shortly before 5 o'clock, it was to the
tune Of p to 0 that the exulting Jay
hawkers and crestfallen Missourians
left the field.
The Missouri team was clearly out
classed in weight, and in the end this
advantage is what gave victory to the
crimson and blue. The two teams
were evenly matched as to skill and
speed, and when Missouri would take
a squirt, as it did several times during
the game, the Tiger gave evidence Of
faith in his team. In the end, how
ever the cornfed Kansans with their
Drawn and coarser muscles wore the
Missourians down, and lighter substi-
tutes served only as fuel to the Kansas
fire eaters. In mass plays Kansas re-
peatedly made large gains, while its
line was all but impregnable to the
Tigers onslaughts. The weak spot in
the Kansas line was at right guard,
while the left side of the Missouri
eleven showed evidences OF going to
pieces at several stages of the game.
Salisbury, the left end for Missouri,
was a tower of strength. but not large
enough to close the holes made
through his tackle and guard.

Missouri gained 1913 yards in fifty
eight actual rushes while Kansas in
