Oklahoma
Missouri
Tiger.SOoner Score
At Rollins Field.


Interest in the result of the big
games scheduled for Saturday, par
ticularly, the Tiger-Sooner battle
at Norman, Okla, has caused the ath-
letic department to make special ar
rangements for scores at Rollins
Field, starting at o'clock in the aft
ernoon.
A reporter for the Evening Mis-
sourian will go with the team, and
his reports of the progress of the
Missouri Oklahoma game will be
wired to the Evening Missouian's
office and, then, sent to Rollins Field.
Special telephone service between the
press box on Rollins Field and the
Evening Missourian's office will make
it possible to get returns the minute
they reach Columbia. The first re-
port will be sent from Norman at
o'clock Saturday afternoon, Just be-
fore the game starts, and others will
follow at the end of each quarter.
In addition to the reports of the
Oklahoma-Missouri and other games,
there will be the opportunity at Rol-
Inns Field to see the finish of the
Missouri-Kansas cross country race.
Those holding activity ticket will be
admitted to the field free of charge
while ten cent admission fee will
be charged all others who attend.

of giants Bennie Owen is to send
against the Tigers Saturday, the
weight advantage the Sooners will
have will not be much more than ten
pounds to the man. The five men in
the center of Owens line are unus-
ually heavy, and if Owen starts G..
Tyler, the 225-pound guard, his line
from tackle to tackle will average
2O4 pounds. But C. Tyler probably
will not start, according to Norman
dispatches, and with Mckinley in his
place the tackle-to-tackle average is
brought down to an even 200. The
Oklahoma backfield is not heavy, and
with Swatek playing fullback and
Mckinley at left guard the Sooner ag-
gregation will weigh less than 1SO
pounds to the man. The Tigers that
are slated to start the game Satur-
day, with Stablein at center and For
rester at half, average only frac-
ton under ITO.
A ten-pound advantage in weight
is not sure sign Of defeat. If the
Tiger line can hold as it held two
weeks ago when the Ames Cyclones
tried four times to carry the ball
over from the 2-yard line, there is no
need to concede the game to the
Sooners.
The averages given in the follow
ing table assume that Mckinley will
play left guard and Swatek fullback
for the Sooners. If Bechtold replaces
Swatek the average will rise one
pound, while C. Tyler's presence in
the lineup will add three more
pounds, bringing the Sooner average
up to 1874 pounds.
The probably line-ups and weights
for Saturdays game follows:

Three stars seem to feature the

back, Councilman, Potthoff, who played
a good game at fullback last week,
and Griesedieck, half, were the out
standing players on the Washington
eleven which defeated Grinnell They
have us outweighed," said Kelley upon
/ his return from the Grinnell game,
"and are pointing their team to the
Missouri game stronger than to any
other game they have scheduled. They
certainly have Missouri outclassed as
far as opportunity to train for the
game is concerned. We have mighty
good fighting chance against the
Washinton team, at that"

Kelley Says Pikeway
Team Is Best In Years.

Football interest in the Washington
game, perhaps next to the most i'm
portant of the struggles scheduled for
the Missouri Tigers, causes Coach
Tom Kelley's report of the Washing
ton-Grinnell game of last Saturday to
be unusually important in Columbia.
That Missouri is up against the hard
est fight the Pikeway team ever Of
fered Tiger eleven seems to be the
unanimous opinion here, and, judging
from the attitude of St. Louis root
ers, there is more than usual conf
dence there in the Washington eleven.

was never delivered, and consequent

their hosts at Manhattan had to offer.

Committee Declared to
Be Illegal
OPINION IS WRITTEN
BY JUSTICE HYDRICK
Justice Watts Dissents on the
Ground That Case is Political,
Not Judicial

The municipal election in Charles
ton, held -ugust i9, was yesterday de-
clared null and void by the supreme
court IN so far as it applies to the
Office of mayor The opinion was writ
ten by Associate Justice Hydrick and
IS concurred in by Chief Justice Gary
and Associate Justice Fraser.
Associate Justice r. G. Watts filed
g. dissenting opinion, Associate JUS
tice Gage joining Judge Watts in this.
In the majority opinion the court
held that the action C the executive
committee i'll referring the chal-
lenged votes to q subcommittee was
an error Of law and prejudicial to the
rights, Of the petitioner, Tristan T.
Hyde.
It is also hello that the executive
committee erre.l in refusing to con-
slider the alleged mutil:Ited votes. The
difference in the votes between May
or Hyae and John P. Grace was so
small, it is emphasized. that a pro-
per consideration Of these by the en-
tire committee might have changed
the result. The court ocntended that
neither che rules of the party nor the
election statute justices the manner

lated ballots were disposed of by a
subcommittee

trary opinion that the question was

committee decla, ed the result. acting
within the scope of the authority vest
cd in them. Their decision on the
facts are final and Lo errors have
been committed, and think the pro-
teeedings should be dismissed" he
said.
The election was held August 10.
Mayor Hyde received 3,241 votes and
John P. Grace 3.240. This did not in
clude the II contested and mutilated
ballots. At the meeting Of the execu-
tive committee three days later to
consider these contested and mutilat-
ed ballots, the l:allots were referred
to q Subcommittee who heard all the
evidence behind closed doors and
threw out enough Of the contested
votes TO give Grace (, majority Of
IA. The subcommittee report was
adopte., by vote OF 13 to II, there
being 13 Grac: men and u Hyde
men on the executive committee. A
writ OF certiorari brought the records
of the election tn the court. The court
could only pass on the question as to
the legality of the procedure and not
as to Il question Of fact.
With the election Cor the office of
mayor thrown out: the executive COM
,rittee will have to designate Il date
for another primary. The general
election is to lie held December I.
