Drop Kick Play.
The attack of Missouri players,
| coach, students and sympathizers on
+ Kansas Missouri game grows strong
/ err instead of diminishing and some
even suggest that a change in the
ruling be pulled out of the ashes. The
| st. Louis Republic has interviews with
| Coach HoIlenbeck and others in the
following:
big Bill" Hollenback, coach of the
Missouri university football team,
passed through st. Louis last night
on his way to his home in Philadel-
phia. Hollenback was the guest of
| Nat Klein, whose son, Eddie, played
quarterback on the Tigers.
Hollenback has not gotten over the
failure of his team to win over KAN
sas and told some of the things that
happened during the game and eS-
pecially about the robbing of the Tig-
ers of a field goal by Lieutenant
did not get into Kansas City until the
afternoon of the game and did not
learn of the leanings of the lieutenant
until the game had started. 1t was
then too late to do anything.
In speaking of the officiating at the
game, Hollenback said:
"It was the rottenest I ever saw in
any game and the whole thing was due
to Thompson. He had coached Kan
sas for more than week at LeaVen-
worth and had naturally become q
partisan, and that is something no Of
fetal should be.
HacEney's Drop-Kick.
when Hackney made the drop
kick, of which we were robbed, he

lined up and then called a penalty for
offside play. Referee Masker told
me that he said to Thompson: Why,
that couldn't have been. When team
is ready for a dropkick the men don't
charge. They merely block
"'Oh, well,' was Thompson's reply,
I meant they were holding.
Hollenback is considerably in doubt
whether an official can change his
rulings after they are made and it has
been put up to the Alumni commit
tee at Kansas to look into the matter
and see If it can legally be done.
In addition to the decisions made
during the larger part of the game
Hollenback declared that Thompson,
when Kansas made her touchdown,
threw his hat into the air and acted
more enthusiastic than any of the
back was sustained by Nat Klein, Ed
die Klein and another member of the
party who saw the game.
Thompson banished three of the
best men on the Tigers during the
game and it is to this fact that Ho1len-
back attributes the tie game. Bur-
ress at right end was the one man
whom Kansas wanted out of the
game, and, according to Hollenback,
Thompson obligingly disqualified him
and as a result the Jayhawkers march
ed around that end.
w
when Thompson ran off the field and
under a guard Of Kansas men jumped
into the automobile, which carried the
Kansas team. He hardly got into the
machine before Hollenback Klein and
several other Missouri and Kansas City
men were after him. and it is doubtful
if he would have gotten off the field
with q whole skin had they caught
him.
IT never heard of a football game
over the decisions" declared Nat
Klein, "but you can be sure that there
is som ething rotten when every man
in the town was talking about the un-
fairness of the umpiring. Hollenback
and I talked to Masker after the game,
and he told us that he would have
disqualified Thompson had 1t been in
his power.
"'I would have resigned and gotten
out of the game he also said, If
could have done so. I never want to
be mixed up with such officiating
again.
Ed Cochems' Talk.
With Hollenback and the party was
Eddie Cochems, coach of Barnes uni
versity football team. Cochems was
told all of the particulars of the game
and when shown the accounts of the
game declared he had never seen such
marked evidence of partially as shown
by Thompson.
Gin all of my experience with foot
ball I never heard of a team being
penalized on drop kick" he declared.
why, it's preposterous to think that
any player would do anything that
would cause a score to be lost, and it
looks to me like a case of something
wrong with the officials
Hollenback left town at 8 o'clock
for Philadelphia, after staying as long
as he could. He may not return to
Missouri next year, but declared that
he wants to very much.
ST don't know what they are going
to do down there" he said "They
have made some different arrange
ments in regard to the coaching and 1
do not know whether there will be
place for me. I will gladly return if
they want me and can find. a place on
the faculty where I cain legally be the
coach. I like this country and the
people, and want to stay out here very
much L always ola ike the w est anu
