SPORT

The Missouri one-mile relay team
was nosed out of first Siate W Ne
Lraska al the Drake games held at
Des Moines, Ia, last Saturday. Start
ing from tenth place the Missouri
runners came up to. within one loot
of first place at the finish.
Kansas, twice victor over the MIS-
souri, quartet in indoor races, starting
at the pole, was ten yards back al the
finish. Grinnell took fourth. In fact,
the finish found four Valley schools
leading the Big Ten.
Ten teams had entered. Eight had
drawn for place, with Kansas and Mis-
souri, still to draw. Numbers l and 10
remained in the hat. Kansas drew
first and turned up number l. That
left Missouri in the extreme outside
position, forcing the Tigers to start
IL yards out and forcing her TO make
her touchoffs IL yards out.
The teams lined up as follows:
Kansas at the pole followed by Ne
braska, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Grin
nell, Notre Dame, Chicago, Michigan,
Ames and Missouri in order.
Edwards led off for Missouri. From
his outside position he was crowded
to the rear until the back stretch was
reached where he began to pass up his
rivals. He ran heady race and came
into the home stretch in fifth position.
In running out TO touch Brownlee,
three of the men he had passed went
by. Brownlee, running his first race
for Missouri, passed up into good
third place, but again other men flick
ed past while the touchoff was being
executed.
Parker on the third quarter for Mis-
souri, passed up everything in front OF
him, coming in almost a dead heat
with Rodkey. Again the tonchof put
Kansas and Nebraska to the fore. By
a magnificent sprint Barlow took the
pole on the first turn Of the last quar-
ter and held a scant lead all the way
around to the home stretch.
Here Mcmahon of Nebraska came
up abreast with Barlow and for sew
enty yards it was gruelling battle
with the Nebraska giant just able to
breast the tape winner.
Stagg of Chicago, Jones of Wiscon-
sin, Gill of Illinois, Rockne OF Notre
Dame, and Hamilton of Kansas, all
coaches of competing teams, CON-
mended the Missouri runners for their
wonderful race from tenth position.
Counting the extra yardage that her
position forced Missouri to run, the
timeof 1926 is considered epochical.
In speaking Of the race, Schultz said
this morning: st was brilliant and
surprising piece of foot-racing.
didn't know they could run so well
AS a matter of fact, counting the ex-
ira yardage they were forced to run
in going out each time for their touch,
offs. not to mention their having tC
pass every other man once and some
of them twice, Missouri must have
averaged 81 seconds or better.

FAULTY ADVERTISING

From the Philadelphia Record
Once in a while great ship, ready
for launching. sticks on its ways. Al
ways it is found ON such occasions
that there have been mechanical de-
fects in the preparation, due TO care
lessness, ignorance or inefficiency. 1t
may have been only little blunder,
but little blunders at launchings
sometimes entail great losses of time
and money. There is no excuse for
them, because they are ayoidable. Ey-
ely shipbuilder knows the conditions
under which vessel will gracefully
slide into the water at the appointed
moment; if the conditions are rigidly
fulfilled, the launching will be sue
cess.
Once in while an advertising cam
paign fails; but such failures are al
ways due to neglect of known rules
for making advertising profitable.
which any advertiser may follow. The
merchant or manufacturer who has
lost faith in advertising through ex-
perience has been trying to market
unworthy goods. or asking unjust
prices. or using mediums that do not
reach the kind of people to whom he
must appeal, or employing dull copy,
or sending a boy on mans errand.
He cannot fairly blame advertising for
his failure any more than the builder
OF a ship which sticks on the ways
can blame the general practice OF
building on land vessels which are to
ply the water.
The advertising Of worthy goods
adequately in the right mediums al
ways pays. The daily newspaper IS
always the right medium to use for
the exploitation of wares OF general
consumption.

WIFE GOT olvoRocE AND HE
 DIDN'T KNOW TT, HUSBAND

Phoenix, Ariz..-August 14-A story of a man being divorced by his wife without his knowledge. and his only property, homestead, -decreed to his wife by the court ruling was contain ed in an affidavit of merit filed yes terday in the superior court by Jos eph E. Bouchard. Bouchard lives on his homestead filing near Williams and was discharged from the army last January, according to his document. Bouchard in his affidavit sets forth that ear:. last May he was informed that his wife had filed a divorce com iplaint against him He immediately consulted an attorney at Williams. he said. and was assured by the lawyer that the court would have no jurisd.c- tion over the homstead fling AS he understood that it would cost $500 or 5000 to come here to combat the case. Bouchard says he remained at Will Hams secure in his belief that at least his one piece of property was safe.
 The affidavit then relates Bouchards 8 surprise when, at later date, he was told that his wife had obtained her divorce: that the costs of $75 had been placed against him and his homestead fling had been decreed to his wife by, the court.
 Bouchard adds that his wife had no interest in the homestead, and that she had never lived or visited there. He also declares he did not desert her, as her complaint set forth. and states that it was really she who deserted him.
 The affidavit concludes with the statement that Bouchard will shortly seek to obtain the patent on the home stead he is living on, and which the court decreed to his wife without his knowledge.
