Missouri Is Not Strong.
The Missouri university team which
last season under Coach Roper proved
a feature in the Missouri valley, is
not doped to repeat this year for Coach
Hollenbeck, according to pre-Iowa game
reports to the Des Moines Capital. One
says: Although at the beginning of
the season eleven old men were ex-
pected to be out for the Missouri uni
verstty football team, there are now
only six on the field. Wilder and Pixlee
have been declared ineligible, Clare did
not return to school and Curtis and
Johnson have quit the team. The loss
Of Johnson will be the most heavily
felt. He is a fierce line man and never
knows when he is beaten. Curtis was
found" last season by Roper. He
played in the last four games of the
year, starting the Kansas game at
halfback. Roper said after the season
was over that Curtis was good enough
to make any eastern team.
THE team is in a bad way for a line
plunger. The trio of backs which
Coach Hollenback is counting on using
are Hackney, who weighs only 142;
Mills, 1856, and Hail. 149. There is no
man on the team who can buck the
line consistently as Alexander, Wilder

weak team like Monmouth and they
been for a. penalty to the opposition.
THE team is showing a good knowl-
edge of the forward pass and worked
it twice for good gains against Mon
mouth. Hollenback did not want to
disclose several of his new plays against
weak team, so outside of these two
plays the Tigers confined themselves to
the old army game "
Drake Got It's Lesson.
Another team, formerly included in
Washburn's schedule, which is having
a lesson in forward passes is Drake.
"A VI LIS LES VAOlA0S
on the defeat by Des Moines college,
to 5, follows:
Drake is stunned. The early sea-
son setback is hardly realized yet by
the coaching staff or the student body.
1t hardly seems possible to the local
schools admirers that Des Moines col
lege, the small North Des Moines in
stitution, should step in and snatch a
clean cut victory at the outset of the
season.
But Coach Andrew Chalmers team
played the game like veterans. The
exhibition of the new style of football
was a revelation to the spectators.
With Davis good right arm shooting
the forward passes, the north city
eleven marched down the field repeat
eddy, despite all resisting efforts of the
Drake secondary defense After gains
by these methods a buck or two
through the line would often net a
first down.
"A tumble of a punt gave Drake
its one good opportunity. The blue
and white back field then smashed
through Des Moines colleges left wing
