Accordingly, the press agent of the

Any Tigers in Africa?
To the Editor Of the University Missourian:

| was much interested in the article
by Senior" in the Missourian the other
day in which he speaks of raising a
collection to cable Teddy" to ask his
aid in procuring tiger cub for Mis-
souri,.
| don't claim to be an authority on
zoology flew engineers are). but if |
am not very much mistaken there are
no tigers in Africa. And the encyclO
pedia tells ME that the tiger makes its
home in Asia and especially in India
If this is correct | think it would be
best not send such cablegram. for we
don't want the University of Missouri
to get a bad reputation for scholar
ship.
| don't wish to seem 'knOcker,
but | have the interests of the school
too deeply at heart to want that kind
of mistake made. The idea of OBJ
tanning tiger cub meets my most
hearty approval. And though it
might prove a dangerous mascot l be-
Iieve it would have an effect on the
athletic teams that would insure the
complete defeat of the X. L. legions.
Yours ever for the glory of Old Mis-
souri,. OREN l.. GRUBBS.
