The Missouri Store (Jets New
Charter To Enlarge
Place.
Frederick Murphy, halfback on the
l!oy Yale football team, is being con
sidered as a coach for the University
of Missouri football team next year.
"Murphy is well recommended by
Walter Camp of Yale, and was a star
halfback last fall," said Prof. W. G.
Manly, of the Athletic Committee, to
day. "Our si arch for a coach has
nan owed down to about four men.
.Murphy is one of these.
"Murphy wants to ionic to Missouri
and believes that he could make a
-Htece-stul Uuu."
When asked if Roper had volun
teered to help Missouri select a coach,"
Prof. Manly said: "Roper has said
nothing to me on the subject."
Many students have expressed the
belief that Phil King would be the
new coach.
"Phil King has not been selected,"
I said Mr. Manly. "He is merely one of
the men being considered. It will be
at least a week before anything defi
nite can be given out in regard to a
new ccav.li."
A new charter was received ester
day by the Missouri Store company,
from the secretary of state of Mis
souri, authorizing a change in capitali
zation from $S.ti'.,fi, all paid in. to $:'.u,
UDO. The company deemed this nioe
practicable because of the growing
business of the store.
"We will add other lines of goods
to our stock from time to time," said
Elmer Gary, manager of the store, this
morning. "Since the opening of file
store we have received calls for goods
which we hadn't dimmed of handling
belore. .i is our aim to carry a com
plete stock of goods. For instance, 't
might not be impractical to add a line
of drugs and todet articles in the fu
ture." Moie floor space may be added
to the store soon.

"The increased optical business in

Are You Thinking of Euilding a Home?
If so, you should investigate the
prices of lots in beautiful Westwood
and Westipount. The only two addi
tions to Columbia with building rt
strictlons. and wheie water, light,
sewer, gas, sidewalks and improve1
streets go with eery lot. Twenty
eight faiiiiiies built homes in tin .-e
two additions last jtar, two more have
already bought lots and are makii.g
preparations to build this ear.
Just think of it o-.er $15o,-)J0 in
vested in homes in these two addi
tions last year. Would ou not like
to have jour home among these good
people? If so, j 011 can buy a lot
cheaper now than you will ever b
able to again. I s( 11 only to home
builder. Respectfully.
