COLUMBIA, MO. -- Many of you Mizzou Tigers might be down in the dumps after the Tigers' loss Saturday against Kansas State.

But there's always next weekend to look forward to as Mizzou takes on Iowa State for Mu"s 100th Homecoming in Columbia.

For those of you alumni who can't make it make back to CoMo and miss it, a Columbia author might have what you're looking in a book.

Columbia native Norm Benedict wrote a book, titled "Thumbs up, 'V' for Victory," which was recently released.

The memoir illustrates what it was like to grow up in a small college town during World War II and the years of prosperity that came in its aftermath.
