Freshmen to Get
Numerals Next Week.

The awarding of numerals will come
a few days after the all-American
football game, which is to be played
on Rollins Field at 2:3O o'clock to-
morrow afternoon. While the list of
these fortunate members Of the fresh
man year squad has not been made
public it is almost certain that Full
bright, Lincoln, Novinger and Bun
ker, who, many think have rivalled
many of the Varsity players, will be
among those to receive the Tiger jer-
seys.
A list of those who will make the
trip to Kansas with the Varsity foot
ball team may serve as an indication
of the numeral awards. Those nam
ed by Coach Ozark" Woody to make
the trip at the expense of the athletic
department are: Fullbright, Lincoln,
Novinger, Bunker, Bailey, Blyholder,
Foster, Humes, Robertson, Rusk,
Simpson, Spuehler, Slaton, Painter,
Morton, Grove, Scott, Nilsson, Maher,
Childs, Gall, Crooks.

All of the R. 0. T. C.
Men Ont at Practice.

Lieut.-Col. w. e. Persons was out
with the entire R.O.TC. yesterday aft
ernoon at football practice. The band
was there all three cheer leaders
were present and some business men
left their stores that they migth watch
the play of the Tigers at the first open
practice in several weeks. Those who
learned of the action of the coaches
in doing away with secret practice
were unanimous in their verdict that
the move would do more to help the
Tigers than it would to hurt their
chances of victory.
The Tiger freshmen, who are well
acquainted with the Varsity signals
and plays, held the Varsity fairly we'll
last night and it was only toward the
END of the scrimmage that the Tigers
were able to break away for consis-
tent gains. Peterson was in good form
again with his dashes around end and
Lewis showed up better, many think,
than he did in the practices preceding
the Washington game. Bunker, the
195-pound freshman tackle was in his
usual form and seemed to be the one
man ON the freshmen eleven that no
Tiger regular was able to get.

Track Sweaters Won
Last Spring Arrive.

Men who won their M in track last
spring-Sylvester, Lewis, Parker, Ed
wards, Saville, Marshall, Minton, Bar
low and oodman-received their
sweaters Wednesday.
The sweaters are counted as the
most handsome that have been re-
ceived at Rothwell gymnasium. They
are white, with the service stripes
and the captains star in black and the
roll collar in old gold.
Barlow, captain-elect, is not here to
get his M, but will be in school next
term.

President Hill Makes
Long Practice Possible.

President A. Ross Hill contributed
his share toward Valley Conference
title for Missouri yesterday by secur-
ing the release of all football players
from afternoon classes until after the
Missouri-Kansas football game. From
now on the Tigers will report for
practice at 2:3O o'clock and will thus
be able to practice just as long as
they did before it started getting dark
at 5:15.
President Hill, so the impression is
at Rothwell Gymnasium, had deter
mined that if there was anything his
office could do to aid in winning a
championship, it should be done. He
suggested that the Tigers be taken on
rest trip to the Elms at Excelsior
Springs as the guests of the Univer-
sity and assured W. E. Meanwell, ath-
letic director, that nothing would be
left undone for the players If they
would only make their wants known.
Coach Miller and the Tigers decided
that the most helpful thing the pres
ident could do for the team would be
to arrange it so that practice hours
could be heightened, and yesterday
action regarding afternoon excuses
followed.

National, state and county highway

tcan Automobile association, an
nounces George c. Diehl, chairman of
It's good roads board.
J. e. Pennybacker, chief of manage

roads, and generally recognized as the
foremost authority on good road man
agement, has resigned his post to be-
come director of roads for the associa-

Antipathy Shown to Kings
and Queens on Early Cards

Early American playing cards, ac-
cording to an article in the American
Printer, showed the national antipathy
to kings and queens by presenting, in
stead of the conventional figures with
which playing cards are now adorned,
the following pictures: president of
hearts, George Washington; of dia-
monds, John Adams; of clubs, Benja-
min Franklin; of spades Lafayette.
The "queens" were Venus, Fortune,
Ceres and Minerva. The knaves were
represented, appropriately rejecting
the general feeling among the whites,
by pictures of Indian chiefs.
