NV. CLASSIC OFF
JayhEwker and Tiger Will Not
Meet Thanksgiving.
Flu Plague at Columbia Blamed
for Cancellation.

Columbia, Mo-, Nov. 22.-For the
first time in twenty-eight years, the
University of Missouri and the Uni
versity of Kansas will not meet on the
gridiron this fall. The annual classic
struggle for football supremacy be-
tween the rival universities. the bitter
est of any in the Missouri Valley, per-
haps, was eliminated for this season
here late Thursday afternoon when
the university authorities decided that
the Tigers would not be allowed to
make the trip to Lawrence Thanksgiv-
ing day because of health conditions in
Columbia.
DIR. w. F. Manly, manager of ath-
1etics. Immediately notified the Uni
versity of Kansas that the game would
have to be Cancelled. The Missouri
authorities wanted to play the game
and they were loath to force the can
ceiling of the contest despite the fact
that the Tigers are not strong and
that every other game on the schedule
had been Cancelled.
No Improvement in Health.
The question has been under con-
sideration by the university health
committee, the athletic department
and the administration officials for a
couple of days. In the hope that the
epidemic of influenza would abate to
such an extent that the team could
be permitted to go into action the
game was put off as long as possible.
Today a canvass of the situation re-
vealed that there was no hope of
health conditions improving to such an
extent that it would be safe for the
team to go, hence it was decided to
notify Kansas before arrangements
for the game had proceeded further.
The action was taken on recon-
mendation of the health committee.
y H., TT,
stated that there already existed a
large number of cases among the S..
A. T. c. students and that statistics
showed that where students Travelled
and afterward returned to the uni
versity large number became infect
ed with influenza and later communi-
Gated the disease to others. Because
of this it was decided to grant no ex-
cuses for any students to leave Co
lumbia for the one-day holiday
Thanksgiving, including members of
the football team. The possibility of
to convey them to Lawrence and re-
turn was suggested to the university
authorities An investigation was
made and it was found that the rail-
| way under government regulations
could not obtain a special coach.
A Blow to Athletic Department.
The canceling Of the game will leave
| hole in the finances of the athletic
department and this is one of the
reasons why the university desired to
] play the game. Every other game on
the schedule having been Cancelled the
receipts of the department have been
cut off entirely this fall. 1t is almost
certain that there will be no post
season games.
Coach Schultz after hearing the de-
cision of the authorities abandoned
| practice for the season. He has been
| hard at work this last week trying to
| build a team from green material
| that would make a showing against
| the Jayhawkers.
