Kelly Scnitoa) at last is off to a start on getting an organization to inspire interest in sports and other activities at Smith-Cotton High School. The group will endeavor to encourage more participation by the students and make for much, much better relations at the school. This came about last Thursday night when 33 men voted to organize a at present hut to be named after a constitution and are drafted.

But no definite decision was made as to what or would not be done. The latter is to await the forming, formally, of the club with the constitution and by-laws. However it will not have the purpose of endeavoring to dictate or influence the school administration or coaching staffs of all athletic programs.

It is a group which hopes to inspire more interest of parents in the school activities and help them to encourage their children to show mere participation. It definitely was interesting to learn the school board has no qualms over such an organization as long as it is carried out in the manner as discussed at the meeting. George Thompson, president of the school board, told the group the board has never objected but it would not take any part in sponsoring such a group. might he said, if and when tlie club is formally formed I will be happy to become, and be considered, one of its first There are many facets to be worked out, but from ihe definite interest shown by the group present at this meeting, there is little doubt in my mind that it will become a strong organization in support of the high school. The men are not going at this in a haphazard manner in getting things understood as to what the club will do and vhat part it shall play.

The are checking the constitutions of the Jefferson Citv Booster Club, the club at the William Chrisman Club at Independence, another at Pleasant Hill, and others to get something strong and workable. Attending the meeting Thursday night were a few parents. But at the second meeting, to be held Thursday night, Oct. 6, it is hoped more parents will be encouraged to attend. This meeting will be held at the Farm and Home Assembly Room, Fourth and Osage.

the meeting, groups gathered and ne- gan talking about what could raise the image of the athletes. This really became interesting when Vincent Heembrcck suggested mavbe different style school letters could be arranged for the various activities. Heembrock said he ally felt a definite football letter should be had. one lor basketball, another for track, still something different in the baseball recognition, and a variation for the band members. is a difference among these programs and they be so recognized as Heembrock said, will give a separation among the various activities, and show that Smith-Cotton activities in which a student can earn his or her It really is a little ridiculous to see some of the same being worn for different activities.

A football player, a basketball player, a man, a musician and a journalist are strictly different, even though many of the participants overlap in the other group. If he does then he can choose what letter he would rather wear but give whatever they earn. Recognition should be given those who Hold an athletic banquet and honor the athletes, and band members too, they participate at more athletic events anyway but it will be something for all the students to enjoy and realize someone is thinking of them other than the school. Well it remains to be seen just what can be done and what effect this new organization yet to be named- wili have. appears this is going to be a well-filled year as far as activities are concerned, according to an announcement made by the Missouri State High School Activities This year's program will include a total of 157 district a state interscholastic events.

They include: 51 basketball tournaments, not to mention the regular basketball schedule of each school; 30 indoor and outdoor track meets; nine cross-country meets; nine tennis meets; 11 wrestling tournaments; seven golf tournaments; three swim meets; 17 baseball tournaments; nine debate, dramatics and speech meets; and 11 music festivals. District and state inter- events have two primary purposes that justify and cause them to be desirable. They provide opportunities to demonstrate before the public the best knowledge, skills, and emotional patterns taught through a particular activity; and to evaluate the best that is taught in a sy.stem in comparison with the best taught in other schools. TTie schools are provided many other services through the MSHSAA. During August six cheerleader clinics were sponsored by the Board of Control over the state.

Football interpretation rules meetings have been held at 20 different sites. Twentynine basketball and three wrestling rules meetings are scheduled for October November. A coaching school is conducted annually. The cross country run will be the first interscholastic event sponsored by the MSHSAA this year with eight district cross country meets scheduled as qualifying events for the state "inal meet at the University of A.

Iowa (AP)-Fullback Harry Wilson burst loose for a 37-yard touchdown run in the last quarter Saturday to give Nebraska a squeaky 12-6 victory over underdog Iowa State to open defense of the Cornhusk- Big Eight Conference football title. Nebraska, rated sixth-best team in the nation, had a real battle on its hands to down a stubborn Cyclone team which maintained a 6-6 tie until only a little less than four minutes remained in the game. The Huskers scored twice in the second quarter on 38- and 31-yard field goals by Larry Wachholtz.

But Iowa State refused to let the Huskers cross its goal line in the first half and came back in the second quarter with a 20- yard scoring run by defensive end Don Graves after he intercepted a screen pass from Nebraska quarterback Bob Churchich. Wilson's game-winning touchdown dash was set up by Husker Rick interception of a oass from Cyclone quarterback Tim Van Galder on the ISU 47. The Cyclones, who had lost their first two games of the season and were not given a chance to even give Nebraska a decent ball game, forced the Huskers to three fumbles in the second half to break up Nebraska drives. Nebraska finally broke the tie when Wilson, restored to the starting lineup only this week after being displaced for not playing up to snuff, broke through the right side of the Iowa State line and scored stand ing up with three minutes, forty- five seconds left in the game. W'achholtz missed his kick for the extra point.

It was the 3rd straight victory this season for the Cornhuskers, who earlier beat Texas Christian and Utah State. It was the third straight loss for Iowa State, which dropped games ear- hcr to Wisconsin and Oklahoma. Wilson actually had scored in the first quarter on an eight- yard plunge, but the play was called back by a penalty against Nebraska for illegal procedure. Iowa State missed a chance to take the halftime lead when a bad pass from center prevented Cyclone kicker Tom Busch from getting a chance to boot the extra point after touchdown run. Busch tried to run the ball over but make it.

Nebraska had much the best of the statistics department, topping Iowa State in first downs 21-10, rushing yardage 229-77, and passing yardage 203-114. Nebraska lost the ball three times on fumbles, each time breaking up Cornhusker drives which seemed destined to end in scores. A sod-rolling machine set off a home-made land mine on the 46-yard line of Clyde Williams Field about three hours before kickoff time. Nobody was injur- led, and a hole about six inches across and a few inches deep was quickly filled in. Iowa State officials and police began an investigation, but no arrests was made immediately.
