Few Big Scores in
Missouri Valley Games.

Seldom in the history of Missouri
Valley athletics has there been year
so lacking in big scores as is the 1918
season. Missouri has scored a total
of thirty-seven points in six major
games, and the Tiger team has aver
aged just about the same as any of
the other teams in the Missouri Val
ley. NIissouri's scores thus far have
consisted of three touchdowns, one by
Collins, one by Edwards and one by
Peterson; five field goals by Chuck
Lewis, and two goals from touch
downs by Lewis.
The Tiger scores have been distrib-
uted as follows:
Ames, 10-Eiwards and Lewis,
touchdown, field goal and goal
from touchdown.
Aggies, 6-Collins, touchdown.
Washington, Peterson, and Lew
is, touchdown and goal from
touchdown.
Oklahoma, 6-Lewis, two field goals.
Drake, 3-Lewis, field goal.
Nebraska, 5-Lewis, field goal :;
safety.
Missouri's offensive was at it's best
in Saturdays game, one feature be-
ing new offensive player, Sylvester,
whose name is already familiar in the
Valley as a track star. The play
Turing the first quarter indicated
that Missouri was developing an Of
fensive, and the final punch, that has
been lacking in so many Tiger games,
came out strong in the 75-yard march
which ended in touchdown.

day made public recommendations to
the third Avenue Railway Company
and the Union Railway Company
Of New York that they give free per
mission to their employees to organize
into labor unions
The complaint. filed by the employees
with the board, charged also poor
working conditions and insufficient
wages but the award says that the
main grievance was the refusal of the
company to permit employees to join

recommendation says all employees of
