Saturday.

Other Along.
IOWA PLAYERS WEAR HARNESS

While going home in the dark last
night Easy" Anderson slipped off the
walk and fell, spraining his ankle. The
result will be that he won't be able to
play against Iowa next Saturday, un-
less he improves wonderfully.
Bluck is in better condition now and
will be used in Saturdays game. Red
Williams is not in condition and could
not be used if he were, as it will re-
quire at least week to learn the sig
mails. He may be used in part of the
game, but it is not likely, Coach Mon
ilaw thinks.
The Tigers had secret practice last
night for the first time. 1t will continue
through the week.
Team Must Improve.
Coach MOnilaw said this morning:
The team will have to improve twenty
five per cent to have chance with
Iowa. One of the players on the Iowa
team was down here Saturday to see
the game with Rolla and as he is prob
ably in town now we had secret prac-
tice last evening and will continue to
have it through the week. Until last Sat-
urday we did not know Iowa's style
of defense, and so we spent yesterday
in changing our method of offense SO as
to meet it. The play tonight will be
kicking game and will be goal kick
ing, drop kicking, punting and blocking
kicks.
Iowa players are using something
this year that is strictly against all
the principles of fair and square foot
ball. They are using a strap harness
under their jerseys which enables the
players to pull each other along. The
harness consists of strap worn around
the chest and underneath the jersey.
Advantage of Harness.
when a man is CARRYING the ball
two of the players get on either side
of him and by catching hold of this
strap from behind they can pull him
along even after he is tackled This
makes it necessary to stop all the men
who have hold of the man who is
the ball, before he is stopped.
This harness was used last Saturday
by Iowa and several times when play
ers attempted TO get hold of the strap
they merely caught the jersey, which
was torn clear off of the player. There
is nothing in the rules against this and
don't know of any way to stop it,

STATE FAIR MOST
SUCCESSFUL YET

Compliments.

CORN DISPLAY IS FINEST EVER
BY a Staff Correspondent.

SEDALIA, Mo-, Oct. l3.-Alissouri :
eighth annual State Fair. held here last
week, marked the most successful eNhib-
ition OF agricultural products and farm
implements ever held in the show me-
state. With the exception OF one day
the weather was fine.
Under the management of John L.
Stinson. Secretary Of the State Fair
Board, every detail was arranged to a
system, and nearly all exhibits were in
place on the opening day-something
neverbeforc known in the history OF the
Fair.
The attractions other than the re9u-
lar horse races and running races con-
sisted of automobile races and aero
batic performers before the grand stand
by the best trOupes obtainablc.
Corn Yield Improved.
In Missouri. corn is king. and the eX
hibit this year was more extensive and
better than ever before. Some Exhibits
shown by counties were 800 per cent
better this year in quality. This is
strongly illustrative OF the educative
work being done in Missouri by the
State Board of Agriculture and the Agri-
cultural College in the teaching of bet
ter breeding of corn throughout the
state by means of farmers Institutes,
county fairs, and farm boys encamp
ments.
The good roads" exhibit was exten-
sive. Farmers in attendance from every
part of the state took a deep interest
in the exhibit. which included two model
concrete culverts, steel bridge, con-
crete piles, several types of road rollers
and crushers, road drags and graders.
and modern road machinery.
The sheep and swine entries were
larger than ever before and the building
for this exhibit was crowded beyond
its limits. 1t is the only frame build
ing on the grounds.
In the dairy department the exhibit OF
butter and cheese was not large, but it
attracted favorable attention. The
building contained decorated separator
booths

OF the dairy cattle only Jerseys and
HOlsteins and few grades We're shown.
The University OF Missouri Dairy De-
partment had a good exhibit of some of
its record Jerseys and IIolsteins. Mis-
souri's Chief Josephine, the states rec

ing visitors. Her booth was decorated
with forty seven quart bottles full of

In the Arts Building there was the
usual large display of textiles and the
pantry exhibit was much larger than in
previous years.
Agricultural Display Extensive.
The display of all lines of Agricul-
tural Machinery at Missouri State Fair
was one of the largest and there was
more big machinery exhibited this year
than usual. Steam gang plows turning
twenty burrows at a time. such as are

operation daily on the grounds
The International Harvester Company
had complete exhibit of gasolene en-
gines and all kinds of harvesting ma
chinery.
The gasolene engines exhibited by all
companies probably numbered seventy
five and gave the farmers an exceptional
opportunity to take his pick" The
milking machine was exhibited this wear
by the John Deer Company. in a tent
apart from the Dairy Building.
Exhibits Instructive.
As an educational institution the Mis-
souri, State Fair is instructive from
start to finish. Everything sent to the
State Fair represents the best that can
be furnished in that line. This display
of the States best products arouses a
desire to practice better methods con-
stantly in order that the farmers may
achieve the highest degree of success.

WANTED: A GOOD
IOWA QUARTERBACK
Coach Catlin Seeking Field
General For His New
Offensive Play.
FOUR MEN ARE BEING TRIED
Scrimmage Practice is Held
Against the Freshmen
Behind Closed Gates.
FOUR MEN ARE BEING TRIED

Special Correspondence.
IOWA CITY, Ia, Oct. l3.-TO find
a quarterback to handle the new plays
for Missouri next Saturday is the aim
of the Iowa coaches at present. Long
scrimmage practice against the Fresh
men behind closed gates has been the
program the last week. Practically
every evening Coach Catlin has used
each of his four guarterbacks, Stewart,
Carbcrry, Brug2eman and Bemis, but a
field general fit to handle the newly de
vised offense is still wanting.
The weak spot of the 1907 eleven
was at quarterback. Stewart and Brug-
.eman played hard. conscientious foot
ball but were handicapped by lack OF
experience Neither has shown marked
signs of improvement this fall and their
playing is below the standard of the
rest of the team.
Weak on Forward Pass.
Early in the scrimmage practice Coach
Catlin, after slight injury to Stewards 5
knee, transferred Carberry to quarter
back. He showed up in good form on
everything but the forward passes, in
which he was called upon to shoot the
pigskin to the ends Here was his weak
ness as wei! as lack of general knowl-
edge concerning the position. Bemis has
caught punts in better form than any
of the other candidates but his running
of tie backs has not been up to either
Stewards or Carberry's form.
Without good director of his new
plays. Coach Catlin feels that the of
fense against the Tigers will not be so
effective as it would otherwise be. His
anxiety caused him Wednesday night to
shut the gates of Iowa Field and give
the players almost an hours cOntinu
Gus scrimmage, trying out all four OF
the quarterbacks and both fullbacks,
Cobb and Mcdonald.
Six Men for Tackles.
Other tryOuts have been given the
players. Six men have been tried daily
in the tackle positions with the chances
favoring Connor and Stutsman though
Johnson played gritty football against
the 1912 team. There are three candi
diatps for riUht end Hyland Pcrriuc
and HanlOn with the odds in favor of
IIyland. a basketball player. skilful in
handling the forward pass.
Every effort is being made to settle
the lineup so that team play may be
worked up to a high point before the
eleven departs for Columbia

he responded by appealing to the su-
preme court.
The appeal of the government from
the decision of the court was based
upon the refusal of the lower court to
compel Mr. Hartman to answer a
question as to whether he had pur-
chased stock In the Union Pacific in
anticipation of an iIfke ca dividend.
There was also a proceeding against
Otto II. Kahn, member of the New
York banking house of Kuhn, Loeb &
Co., who were the financial agents of
the Union Pacific, similar to that
against Hartman. Mr. Kahn refused
to answer questions covering the
points upon which Mr.. Hartman de
clined to enter.
Much interest has been felt In the
case because of its very great impor-
tance and the announcement of the
courts decision was listened to with
deep interest by those present In the
court The opinion reversed the de.
clsion of the lower court in so far as
1t compelled responses and affirmed
the portion in which the court refused
to compel such responses. Ii was a
sweeping victory for Hartman and
his associates.
