Ohio State has won but two conference tilts, tied one and lost one and probably will enter the Saturday fracas in the role of underdogs . . .

Big Leroy Edwards led the AllStars to an 11-6 lead in the first period of the opener, but Ernie Andres, Bill Closs and Risen helped the Hoosiers into a 22-19 halftime bulge.

Bucks Again ‘Point Minded’ In Big Nine Football Race

By TOMMY DEVINE, United Press Sports Writer CHICAGO, Nov. 13.—A decade ago Ohio State introduced the “wide

open" style of offensive play to the mid-west when it hired the late Francis A. Schmidt away from Texas Christian university and today the Bucks once again are high-point minded as they bid for another Big Nine football championship.

and his razzle-dazzle” style in keynoted a new pattern of play in the Western conference. The Bucks now are under the direction of youthful Paul Bixler and whether by intent or accident his current team has a distinct “Schmidt accent.”

Ohio State leads the Big Nine in all important offensive departments, according to the latest official statistics, but is lodged in seventh place on a defensive basis. The Bucks top the circuit in scoring with an average of 24.7 points per game; in first downs with an average of 14.7 per contest; in net yards rushing with an average of 223 per game; in total yards gained with an average of 332 per game; and in total rushes with an average of 53 per contest. Ohio State's great offensive punch has placed it in the thick of the Big Nine title running after a poor early season start. The Bucks play Illinois Saturday at Champaign in a game that may go far toward

Northwestern rates second offensively with 308.2 yards per game, while Michigan is third with 284.6 vards. Iowa is the top defensive team, granting its five opponents an aver=age of but 116.8 yards a game on the ground and through the air. The Hawkeyes took over the leadership by virtue of holding Wisconsin to a meager 41 yards by rushing last Saturday. Indiana leads in forward passing with an average gain of 130.8 yards per game through the air. Bob Chappuis of Michigan continues to lead in individual total offense with an aggregate of 607 yards in five games. The rushing leadership is held by Vie Schwall of Northwestern with 355 yards in 53 attempts, an average of 6.7 yards per carry.

Butler Gets No Respite

Coach Tony Hinkle has promised his squad no rest until they win the Valparaiso game Saturday in the Butler bowl The Crusaders will be the threat that the Bulldogs will have to face in their final drive toward an Indiana inter-collegiate conference championship. Despite the cold weather yesterday, the Bulldogs went through a scrimmage session that smacked of pre-season workouts. Since only two conversions have been made in the last two games out of nine attempts, Hinkle added some extra practice to James McLinn’s already heavy burden. In these two games, McLinn has scored two touchdowns and completed passes to Jeke McHugh and William Sylvester to account for three more, Scouting reports made by Herb Schwomeyer, assistant coach, indicate that the Crusaders have a big team that is versatile in the backfield. Leading the Valpo squad in versatility is Don Koehn, who played left half, quarterback and fullback at various times in the Western Michigan game last weeke end. Koehn is the smallest man in the Crusaders’ backfield. He is 8 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 148 pounds.
