FOR GENERAL ACTIVITY TICKET

Now that the Thanksgiving game is,
after next year, thing of the past,
some other means of supporting ath.
letics at the University of Missouri
must be provided. A general activity
ticket seems to be the best thing for
such an emergency. By the activity
ticket is meant a general ticket of
admission to all collegiate contests of
any kind that may be held in Colum-
bia during the school year. 1t could
be sold at a fair price, and every
student in the university should be
required to purchase one when he
enters each year.
Such plan would be good for the
students and also for general student

participated in by students, and car
ried on by them. 1t would afford
means of unifying the school. When
the students as whole are support
ing anything they are brought closer
together. Such union is good for
the school as well as for the students.
Then athletics is a student enter
prise, carried on for their betterment.
A general activity ticket is the best
immediate way to provide such sup
port. 1t is economical, just to all,
and simple method to meet a prob
lem. All students should work for |

San Francisco Boys Play 40 Games
Without Injury.
Consul Baker of Hobart says that
Australian football, while not danger
Gus, is of great athletic benefit, and
also "of very considerable interest to
spectators" The consul says that the
Columbia Park boys club of San Fran
cisco, including forty boys of good
athletic build, has completed its tour
of the Australian states and played
about forty games Of football with
Australian teams without a single ac-
cident.
The Australian game requires a
larger field than the game as played
in the United States calls for, and the
ground must be oval in shape and at
least $50 yards from goal-post to goal
post. The players at the start are
placed along the edges down to the
center Of the field.
The chief science Of the game is to
keep the play open. 1t is not allowed
to trip a man nor to put the arms
around the neck nor in any way to
endanger his person. The ball can he
taken away from man only by knock
ing it from his hand. A detailed ac-
count Of the game is on file at the
bureau of manufacturers. AS many
as 10000 persons go to see one Of
these matches in Melbourne.-New
York World.

Champion Race
Over Ten Miles

When Tsukamoto and Kaoo step
onto the running track at the Ath-
etic Park this afternoon, there
should be huge crawd of specta-
tors present. The two men are so
evenly matched and have so many
hackers that the race takes on the
aspect of an international event.
The Hawaiians and most Of the
hoales are putting their shirts on
Kaoo to win. and there will be much
weeping and waiting tonight IL the
Hawaiian does not pull down the
first prize. Kaoo feels confident
that he can win, and has no hesita
ton In saying so. The old "Waia-
lua Horse" will certainly make the
japanese run the race OF his life,
and. Judging from the way In which
kaoo won the full Marathon race
with sprint. there does not seem to
be much doubt about his doing the
same today.
Tsukamoto, who has been trained
10 the minute. considers that he Is In
better condition than ever he was
before, and he makes no bones about
saying that he will take the lead
from kaoo and hold 1t to the finish.
Both men are so confident and
knowing that they are splendid rum
ners the public will have hard job
to pick the winner in advance. The
crowd will be about evenly divided
on the proposition, and there will
surely be some banzais yelled dur
Ing the course of the race.

LAYMEN'S CONVENTION AT
DULUTH A BIG SUCCESS

For year or moro people have been
reading OF the wonderful results of the
I.aymen's Missionary Movement and
the great increase IL has made in the
offerings of Protestant Christendom To
foreign missions. Yet. IL was ditncult
to realize the power and sweep OF the
work movement until a concrete eN-
ample OF the methods and their results
could be viewed first hand, says the
Duluth News Tribune. But since Fri
dav evening when over l.2OO men, prac-
teal business men, were caught up IN
the whirlwind OF religious enthusiasm
generated at the big banquet at the
Duluth armory, there has been no
question of why the offerings from the
Protestant churches have Increased al
most S2.OOO.OOO during the past year.
And there was no doubt left i'm the
minds of those present that the Offer
ings for the 1910 would show a still
greater Increase.

luth Friday evening has been tre-
