Ohio State and Illinois embroiled in a three-way scramble 'or the Big Ten conference championship. The rest of the territory will [have the usual run of good rugged clubs. *bme capable of jolting upsets, hut none good enough for reason long contention Frank I-eahy’s Irish lost some notable stars, including Ueon Hart. Jim Martin, Red Sitko and terry. Coutre. But the gear which made the g<«s click, quarterback Bob Williams, returns with such other standouts as linemen Gerrv Groom. Paul Burns.’ Bob Toneff and Jim Mutscheller and becks Billy Gay, Billy Barrett and Jack Landry. The. Notre Dame backfield may be light, but II will lie fast, the line may lack depth, hut Leahy probably will find plenty of compe- j tent reserves from the welter of naterlal at hand before midseason, j and the present string of 3s games. !
