The championship OF the Atlantic feet
at football and a whole lot of money be-
sides went TO the mon OF the L. s. s. Me-
braska yesterday when the Nebraska team
walIoped the players OF the u. 8. s. Mis-

IL was q finely played game OF two twenty
minute halves. and although the onslaughts
and eackling were fierce. there wasn't an
injury. There was time out just once for
a player and he was Harrigan Of the Ne
braskas. who had Just made some long runs.
That was about a minute beofre the game
ended. Gee, there's reason for Harrigan

A gang Of sailors during the week went
up to the park. which they got free Of
charge for the day from Frank Farrell,
and cleared the snow on the gridiron and
for a distance around the edges. The
fine weather yesterday made the cid even
little dusty and conditions were all right
for the game. except that the ground was
about as sprlngy as iron. That didn't
bother the hardy tars to any extent. They
made the fiercest kind OF dive tackles and
pulled down their men as " they were play
ing on well nourished turf.
The Missouri squad got there early for
practice and went through its maneuvres
led by Northcroft. the former Naval
Acamedy star. He was the only commits
stoned man on the Missouri team. DR..
John Pollard, the regular quarterback OF
the Show Mes. is on leave and he didn't
come up for the game. The Missouri
sailors bewailed that fact most heartily.
The Missouri squad was hard at IL when
large delegation OF the Nebraska's sailors
clamored into the grounds. With loud
cries Of derision they paraded 20 their
seats and made mock Of every tumble or
misplay by the players from the Missouri.
There were ironical cheers for the ice
cream ship from the Nebraskans.

asked Missouri sailor.
