    CORN HUSKERS HAVE TRIANGLE HOLDONCROWN Victory Over Kansas Makes Nebraska to Be Feared. Kansas City. Nov. 12.-Nebraska’s victory over Kansas by q % to O score Saturday leaves them with almost q strange hold on the Missouri valley conference football championship this season. Two-thirds of the season is over and the Cornhuskers. both in vic tories won and the brand of football played have shown themselves an aggregation to be feared by any school in the conference. The Nebraska title is still technically disputed by the Kansas Aggies and by Drake. Neither Of these teams has lost q game but the Drake eleven has not had a schedule that would test it’s mettle as has Nebraska nor have her victories been gained by the scores that were piled up by the Cornhuskers. The Kansas Aggies also remained I’m defeated but two tied games cut con siderably into their championship pos sibilities. The only upset in the dope yesterday and that was slight, was the vic tory of Oklahoma over Missouri. 1t was the Sooners’ first victory and from past performances she was not rated to get the long end of the IS to II count against the Tigers. The Kansas Aggies were counted slightly ahead Of Ames as the Iowa state college had met defeat at the hands Of two other conference teams, but the II to 2 score was somewhat more lopsided than was expected. Three allconference game are on the program next Saturday. One of them, the Kansas Aggies-Nebraska struggle at Lincoln. will finally decide the leadership of two undefeated elevems. Should the Aggies pull out with a victory it would make them conference leaders, but this is considered unlikely by football followers. The Grinnell- Drake contest at Des Moines may eliminate Drake from the top of the percentage column but otherwise will have little effect on the standing of the teams. Missouri university will meas Wash ington at Columbia.
