Exceptions were at Purdue, where reserve guard Bill Howard, idled with a severe hip bruise, was declared out of Saturday’s game with "Notre Dame; and at Michigan State, where senior halfback Ron Rubick will miss Friday night’s game with Southern California. Rubick has not recovered from a knee operation. Ohio State, which usually concentrates on a ground attack, worked on a passing attack Tuesday, and coach Woody Hayes bemoaned the efforts. “Our pass protection broke down,” Hayes said as he ordered similar drills for today. Northwestern, definitely a passing eleven, worked on pass protection. Coaches warned that Wildcat quarterback Tom Myers would face a hard Illinois Saturday. At Minnesota, quarterback Bob Scdek was demoted from the first to third string, apparently as punishment for being late for a quarterback meeting. Coach Murray Warmath didn’t indicate how long Sadek would run with the reserves. Michigan coach Bump Elliott drilled the Wolverines on pass defense in preparation for Navy’s star quarterback Roger Staubach, who set a Navy record for pass, yardage in a single game last week. Wisconsin, idle this weekend, worked its offensive patterns against Purdue Defenses. The Badgers meet the Boilermakers Oct. 12. One of the few teams not stressing passing or pass defense Tuesday was Indiana, which placed special emphasis on the quick kick. , lowa worked on both running and passing. Coach Jerry Burns moved Phil Deutsch to the No. 2 right tackle spot and Bill Niedbala to second string right end. Coach Hugh Devore of Notre Dame moved center Jim Carroll to right guard and elevated Norm Nicola to the No. 1 center slot. The Irish worked a dummy scrimmage against Purdue defensive formations.

Top money winner Arnold Palmer, PGA and Masters champion Jack Nicklaus and U.S. Open titlist Julius Boros will - be among those competing for the $26,000 first prize money in the first annual event at the suburban Philadelphia Whitemarsh Valley Country Club. The Open, which will . benefit the child development center for the handicapped in nearby Norristown, Pa., will compete for attention with the baseball World Series and area football games during the weekend but tournament officials were hopeful of a $250,000 gate.:.±.."-\;.2. Many of the pros played practice rounds on the 6,807 yard, par 72-course Tuesday and pronounced it in fine shape. The lengthy course is liberally sprinkled with 150 sand traps and most players agreed that approach shot accuracy and putting would tell the story. Gary Player, a money winner in all but eight of 118 Professional Golfers’ Association events in the United States since 1957, said he felt a 16-under par 272 would capture the 72-hole event. Palmer, who has been troubled by apparent bursitis in his right shoulder, said he “felt fine” as he shot a two under par 34 for nine holes during a Tuesday practice round. Four-time U.S. Open champ Ren Hogan had been scheduled to play in the event but sent word to tournament director Frank Meador Tuesday saying he regretted he was unable to attend “due to business commitments.” The field will be cut to the low 75 players and ties at the end of 36 holes and a tie at the end of the event will necessitate an 18-hole playoff Monday. In the event of still another tta at the end of the playoff, “sudden death” Holes will be played.

To Launch League Bowling By Girls Organizational plans are being made this week for the initial start of league bowling for girls from Decatur high school. . Mrs. Dick Mies, certified instructor for the BPAA youth bowling program, met Tuesday afternoon with all interested D. H. S. girls, explaining the YBA program and outlining plans for this bowling season. Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock, all interested juniors and seniors will meet at Villa Lanes, where they will be given mass instructions and individual attention in an intensive “learn to bowl” program for youth at the local establishment. As a result of the meeting at the high school Tuesday afternoon, this junior and senior division, to be known as the high school Major league, the girls voted to bowl three games each Thursday at 3 p.m. Already, approximately 10 teams of three bowlers each have requested to bowl in this league. The freshman-sophomore group, because of a different dismissal schedule at school, will not be able to bowl on Thursdays as in the past but have tentative plans to bowl on Tuesday afternoons after school. This group will, however, meet at Villa Lanes this Thursday after school, for the first in a series of free lessons aimed to teach each and every one of the students the proper way to bowl, bowling etiquette and all phases of the YBA program. In preparation of this new YBA program, Dick and Gwen Mies, and Villa Lanes employes Charles and Edna Hite, attended an all day bowling clinic at Key Lanes last Friday, where they received intensive coaching and guidance in training young bowlers. All were presented certified instructor certificates by the field representative of the BPAA who conducted the schooling. • Each of the high school leagues this year will be headed by an instructor who will be assisted by at least one adult coach per league, all of whom will have had specialized training in this field. Decatur high school boys and schools in the Adams county area will be contacted this week to arrange schedules for inter-county leagues and classes of instructions for the boys. Plans are also being made for an inter-county girls league this year, with details to be announced in the near future. . Parental approval from each of the students participating in league bowling will be necessary this year, and parents are invited to attend any of the instruction periods as well as league bowling. For further information, students may call Dick or Gwen Mies.

Wilkinson Is Named As Coach Os Week NORMAN, Okla. (UPD—Oklahoma’s Bud Wilkinson, the silverhaired football strategist whose golden touch paid off in a stunning 17-12 upset of defending national champion Southern California today was named United Press International “coach of the week.” “On behalf of the team and coaching staff I appreciate the honor paid to them all," Wilkinson said as he prepared to study films of most important victory in years. f “We felt we had to control the ball to win the game — it was no super-strategy,” Wilkinson said of the. Southern California victory, which probably sent the Sooners soaring to their greatest heights since their heydays of the mid-50s. Southern California might quarrel with Bud’s modesty about strategy, because Oklahoma unveiled a new series of doublereverses, which included passing, to go with its storied ground game and bone-rattling defense that had the Trojans off balance. _ . ■ ■« Oklahoma’s ball control tactics hogged the game while they built up a ~17-6 halftime lead.
