annual Kansas Missouri game on
Thanksgiving is a matter Of con-
lecture. but Pres't Hill is said TO be
hopeful that the war department
will permit the departure of the
team on a as hour furlough III the
middle of the week instead OF at the
end Of the week. III not the game
might have to be played on the Sat
urday before or after the Thanks
giving Thursday.
Pres't Hill favors a complete re-
vision of the Missouri Valley sched-
ule similar to that already effected
in the Western conference where
by every conference team would
meet the other conference team.
Whether this could be crowded into
November seems doubtful and there
has been some talk among coaches
and directing authorities OF attempt
ing TO extend the season into the
next month. Much will depend on
the games with schools outside the
conference that can be cancelled or
reset.
With a large percentage Of the
football material at all the valley
schools under strict military control
and discipline, training and prac-
tice routine as followed in other
years bids fair TO be materially up
set. The effect of the NEGOTIATIONS
required Of s. A. T. c. men was
expected TO interfere with early
practice but the postponement of
the schedule probably will give
time for vaccinations to heal before
the real season opens.
