NJ. A. LOSES
BUT REMAINS
IN A TIE

Outweighing M. N. A. at least
twenty pounds to the man and pos
sessing speed equal to that Of their
lighter opponents, the Chillicothe Bus
mess College defeated the Missouri
Military Academy eleven here
Thanksgiving afternoon IA to 6. The
game was played in Sannebeck park
because Of the muddy condition Of M.
M. A.. field. "A large crowd witnessed
the event. M. M. A. by losing this
game tied with Kemper and Chilli
cothe for the first place in the confer
ence.
The first quarter was marked by M.
NJ. A. advancing steadily with short
passes only to miss a drop kick q
short distance from the goal. Tomlin
was hurt in the first down and taken
out. In the second quarter Chillicothe
made a touchdown and kicked goal the
result Of determined line bucking.
Two long passes n in this and an
other in a later quarter gained forty
yards for the visitors each time.
In the third quarter M. M. A. held
C. B. c., on their n yard line for
downs only later in this quarter to see
them take the oval over for another
seven points.
In the final frame M. N. A. made
a touchdown and failed to kick goal on
a long pass carried over by White.
M. N. A. was not outplayed. The fact
that their opponents wer not only
much heavier but fully as fast as M.
M. A. accounted for. the victory. The
game was marred by rough playing
on the part of Chillicothe which re-
suited in their being penalized SEW
eral times. M. M A was not penal
lied once for SUCH tactics.
