The impression of the rOoterS mighl
have been that the coaches would pat
. the Tigers on the back between halves
yesterday. Such was not the case
however. What Roper told the Tigers
was so emphatic that it scared the
team. He made up for the lecture he
did not get to give them in st. Louis.
Some of the former Tiger players who
went in the gymnasium ard heard him
said it was the best between halvet
talk they ever heard from a coach to
a team.

they have good plays to meet the /
Kansas bunch. They will find a heav-
Ter and stronger line against Kansas
