afternoon in the Howard Stadium. It
was the first home game for the BiSons,

opposition than expected. Howard out
shone West Virginia in passing attack
but the visitors we're superior on run
ming offensive.
west Virginia threatened the Howard
goal almost constantly In the FIRST half,
but the Bisons contrived to repulse all
the drives except that in the second
quarter which brought the visitors their
lone touchdown. The score came in the
last five minutes Of the period, when
Edwards plunged across the Howard
goal line to eliminate steady drive
from midheld A 20-yard dash by Ed
wards along with several line thrusts
by the same player, 10-yard advance
by Boxdale and q 15-yard penalty I'm
posed on Howard brought the touch
down. Nash drop-kicked the extra point.
Strengthened by Marshall, ace Of its
backfield, who was kept out Of the first
half because Of recent injury, the
Bisons exhibited q decidedly more ag-
gressive attack IN the final half. In
the closing minutes they opened spec
tacular passing foray with Marshall on
the throwing end, which enabled them
TO drive deep into enemy territory.
Then Marshall slammed OF tackle for
20 yards more to put the ball on the
Yellow Jackets 10-yard line. Here,
however, Howard fumbled on an at
tempted trick play and lost its best
scoring chance Of the afternoon.

HH has before him for decision q
proposal to abolish the All

A sentiment for abolishing this phase

the expenses for the upkeep Of the team
comes out Of the recreational funds Of
the various posts, built up from profits
made from the various service post ex-
changes. Particularly on the West
Coast, 1t Is said, the San Diego Leather
neckS pay for the upkeep Of team they
never even see In action. as the games
are confined largely to the East Coast.

Workers were able to establish o con-

periods.
The Missourians could show the vio-
lets In only one quarter, the third, when
the visitors rallied and several times
threatened to score, while al OF New
Yorks efforts were impotent. But In
two Of the other three periods the Vio-
lets ran wild over the Tigers and the
only counter In the first quarter was
scored by Chick Meehanis men.
The game was loosely played, the
ball being flmbled back and forth at
intervals, and poor handling twice
stopped Missouri when 1t seemed about
to score. New York, too, lost at least
one possible touchdown by fumbling.
Missouri Misses Chance.
Missouris best chance to count came
at the very outset, when q New York
punt carried out Of bounds on its own
l7-yard line. The cheers Of the Mis-.
sourians. however, had hardly faded
when three line plays were stopped eby

Of the ball.
The McNamaras, Bill and Bob, then
started q two-man offensive, with q as

drive Bob Mcnamara across the goal
