October 11th 1952

It was about month before the presidential election, Dwight Eisenhower vs. Adlai Stevenson and your Missouri Tigers were home after a 26-0 shutout win the weekend before at Kansas State. Coach Don Faurot lead his team out onto the field to play against Southern Methodist. At the end of the day Missouri had 7 points on the board and Southern Methodist had 25. Missouri went 5 and 5 overall in 1952 with 3 home wins.

I got this program cheap off of ebay. I thought it was interesting to see all the old advertisements for local businesses, some of which I had actually heard of and a few that are still in Columbia today. I also enjoyed seeing the pictures of the team. (Click the pages below to make them bigger)

The page order got messed up a little when I went to post them but they are all there. Thanks for taking a look. I'll post something besides a program next time.
