Big Ten Has Full Schedule For Saturday By United Press International & Big Ten football teams are off Saturday in the first full round of conference games this season. Here’s what they were doing about it: Ohio State, preparing to meet Illinois, worked overtime in an effort to polish its passing attack, a new facet of the Buckeyes’s traditional “three yards and a cloud of dust” offensive. At Champaign, 111., the Illmi, who had no scrimmage before last week’s upset victory over Northwestern, took it easy again. Coach Pete Elliott, happily eyeing an injury-less squad, put the players through a light workout designed to improve blocking. lowa has never lost a homecoming game to Indiana and Coach Jerry Burns means to keep the record clear when the alums gather to watch their Hawkeyes meet the Hoosiers Saturday. lowa Changes Line , Burns hustled his Warriors through a light two-hour drill and made two lineup changes. Sophomore Karl Ryan was shifted to the second-string fullback post, replacing the injured Lonnie Rodgers. Mike Reilly was assigned the punting duties, replacing Cliff Wilder. Injuries prompted two changes in the Indiana starting eleven. Coach Phil Dickens replaced Rich Wervey in the starting end position after regular Rudy Kuechenberg reported he was having pains in a leg which was broken last season. Fred Lussow over the Hoosiers’ top wingbEfck’ position, supplainting Doug Spicer, who is suffering shin splints. Coach Jack Mollenkopf of Purdue hoped that a key slot in the forward wall had been effectively plugged. Tackle James Garcia reported his ankle was too sore to start, so Mollenkopf took sophomore Bob Hopp from the reserves and threw him into the gap. And at Madison, W’is., where the Boilermakers will open their conference campaign, Coach Milt Bruhn was still trying out quarterbacks. Southpaw Harold Brandt was reported clicking in pitches tc end Jim Jones, and it appeared that Wisconsin’s quarterback problem was vanishing. Badger Coach Pleased “That’s what I call a good practice,” Bruhn said .when it was ovey. Northwestern worked on pass defense today in preparation for an expected heavy aerial bombardment from Minnesota in Saturday’s . nationally televised game at Evanston, 111. At Minneapolis, the Gophers were doing much the same thing. Coach Murray Warmath drilled his charges on pass defense with Tom Myers in mind. Myers is second nationally in total offense and expected to throw a barrage of passes. Right halfback Dewey Lincoln, who broke his jaw last Saturday, was back working out with Michigan State. Coach Duffy Daugherty indicated Lincoln would make the trip to Ann Arbor, Mich., where the Spartans meet Michigan. Michigan’s team worked out behind closed gates. Coach Bump Elliott was believed to be planning some new offensive surprises built around quarterback Bob Chandler’s passing.

Ryder Cup Play Opens Friday At Atlanta ATLANTA (UPD — U. S. Captain Arnold Palmer thinks the British may be over-training for the Ryder Cup matches and that unless they slacken off his team "may have an easy time.” a . Palmer emphasized that if the British rest today they could be a tough opponent when the matches get underway at 9 am., EDT, Friday. But he noted they have been playing up to 27 holes daily since Sunday and could be stale . when it “I'm leaving it up to our players to set their own pace today,” Palmer said. He said if some feel a nine-hole tuneup is all they need — fine by him. But he added he's probably get in 18 holes today "You cant keep going day after day with no break without feeling it,” Palmer said. "It’s better to pace yourself. 1 knew what spur people can do now and they know what they need." Both Palmer and John Fallon, the non-playing British captain, plan to make public around noon today their respective twosomes from Friday’s matches. There are eight Scotch foursomes lined up for Friday. In each, two-man U.S. teams take on two-man British teams with each team using only one ball. Saturday, there will be eight four-ball matches with low man winning each respective hole and Sunday there will be 16 singles matches. This means a total of 32

matches during the three-day affair with a point given for each match won and. a half point for each tie with 16% points needed to win the solid gold cup. - -~ The United States leads 11-3 going into the 15th biennial matches and is an odds-on favorite to repeat this year with the likes of Palmer, U.S. Open Champion Julius Boros, Gene Littler, Billy Casper and Dow Finsterwald in its'linetip. Other members of the U.S. team are Dave Ragan, Billy Maxwell. Johnny Pott, Tony Lerna and Bob Goalby. The Americans experimented with a variety of shots and a variety of alternate ball combinations Wednesday to give Palmer a chance to make up his mind how he wants to pair them Friday. "He and the other Americans insisted that this U.S. team has more spirit and desire than one would normally expect to find in a tournament of this kind in which these pros who usually play for big money are playing strictly for glory.
