THE PRESIDENT'S PAGE

I the stands today are thou ands of alumni of Ohio State University. To them I want to extend an especial greeting on this traditional Homecoming occasion. Throughout the campus today and tonight there will be scenes of reunion. I want to join in wishing all alumni a pleasant return to their Alma Mater.

I want al o to extend a welcome to our visitors from the Northwestern University campus. The football rivalry between our two schools dates back to 1913, the first year of the Western Conference. The great attendance at today's game is a tribute to both teams and the fine record of keen competition they haYe demonstrated over the years.

NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY

Prairie schooners, headed ior the recently di -­covered gold fields were strung out aero s the level lands \\·e t of Chicago, then a sprawling little town of 28,000 persons, when N rthwe tern niver ·ity received its charter in 18:il.

At that time the founders. \Yho were c1v1c and church leaders of Chicago. did not dream that their little cit_v would become within Jess than a hundred year.- the second most populou city in the nation, and their uni\·crsity one of the leading institutions of higher lea rning in the country. But such remark­ab le growth was destined for both their city and their universit ·.

In the beginnino- these men : Grant Goodrich. John Evans. and Orrington Lunt among them- aw the need for e ' tabli ·hing a university for the great

1orthwest T erritory which wa then growing rapidly. So they gathered one day in 1850 in the little law office of Grant Goodrich, aero a muddy street from the court house. to lay plan · for the ;, 1 orthwe · tern niversity .. , In January of the fol­lowing year the ch:uter of the University. a minor detail of the legislati ve grind, passed the Illinois L egi lature and the niver ity came into legal exi tence.

Young Chicago. a lready brawling and bu tling. lacked the quietness which the e men thought n ce--a ry fo r _tudy; so they sought out a place a little

di tance from the city. Finally they selected, twelve miles north of Chicago, a beautiful oak grove border­ing Lake "Michigan ; and here they began the con­. tructi n of the fir~t building-a building which hou eel both clas rooms and student during the fir t

14

years. This \\·ooclen ·tructure surmounted by a cupola to give academic di stinction and known today a · "Old College,'' contained ix cla room , where ·tudents recited Latin and Greek plotted their geo­metric problems. and heard lectures on philosophy and rhetoric.

Hardships piled up b fore the ea rly progress of the institution fo r the swamp surrounding the campus had to he drained. underbrush had to be clea red away, and new buildings had to be erected as the tudent body rapidly gre\\'. By 1869 co­education. an innovation that \Yas frowned fiercely upon by the conservative East, wa in ·tituted at the University.

Xorthwestcrn Uuiversity today includes eleven schools, with a full-time enrollment of 7,500 studen t and a faculty numbering approximately 1,500. The two important unit · of the University are at Evan -ton and Chicago. On the 75-acre campu at Evans­ton are the College of Liberal Arts, the Technologica! In titute, the Graduate Sch ol, the chools of Com­merce, Education, Engineering, 1'1'Iusic, and Speech. and the Medil l School of Journali m.

On the Chicago campus are the l\Ied ical, Denta l, :rnd Law school . Here are al o the evening divi­sions of the chool of Commerce and J ournali 111.

a nd the University C liege. which offer evening cour es in busine s, liberal art , speech. education and music to thou ·ands of tuclents each year. The medical. dental, and legal clinics, from which ten of thousands of Chicagoans annually ecure profe -ional a id and advice, ar al so located on the Chicago campus.

Bucks and Wildcats • Q E of Ohio State' olde t football rival r ies is the time.-honored series with Northwestern Univer­sity, :i. aridiron relationship which began in 1913-the Buck ' first year a a member of the \Vestern Conference.

Today's meeting is the 31st between the 40-year­old rivals and Ohio State has the edge in victorie . 20 to nine. There was one tie, a scoreless duel in 1938.

The Buckeyes have conquered Northwe tern's \Vildcats in a streak fa h ion, winning from three to five contests in-a-row. Ohio has won the last four meetings and the last even of eight contests. An extreme characteristic has appeared in the 30 pre­vious dashes between the two schools; th Buck winning usually in easy fashion, while the North ­western triumphs have come by narrow margin .

Ohio State took the Wildcats into camp with monotonous ease the first five times the teams played, 1913 through 1917. Northwe lern actually was hut out the fir t three times and again in the fourth meeting. A startling 58-0 Ohio State victory to inaugurate the series stands as the most one-sided verdict either school has gained. That opening game marked the first vear Ohio State was included in the ~Testern Confer~nce and the Wildcats were invited to play at Columbus. orthwe tern managed to taste

its first victorv over the Bucks in 1927, winning 19-13. .

The 1916 game assured Ohio State of the Big 10 championship, when the immortal "Chic" Harley proved too much for the Wildcats in a 23-3 game. Both teams entered the clash unbeaten and North­western scored its fir t point of the series, a field goal drop kicked by "Paddy" Driscoll to give the 'Cats an early lead.

Northwestern ended the Buckeyes' domination in 1927 by a 19-13 score at Columbus with "Tiny" Lewis' two touchdowns leading the way. The Wild­cats dropped the 1928 game by a 10-0 score, but came back to gain decisive wins the next three sea-

sons for their longest \\·inning string of the rivalry. Although Northwestern went away with an 18-6 victory in '29, a 99-yard run by "VI es" Fesler, now the Minnesota coach, wa the feature on the Ohio State side. "Pug" Rentner sparked the 'Cats to victory in 1930 and '31 and scored their lone touch­down in the 20-6 loss al sorbed in 1932. Rentner tacked up TD runs of SO, 45, and 60 yards during his three easons against the Buckeyes.

Ohio State made it four straight victories over the Wildcats through the 1935 conte t. But in 1936 at Evanston, the 'Cats lipped to victory by a 14-13 score and earned the B ig 10 title that season after the prized laurels had gone to the Bucks the previous

year. Johnny Kovatch, pre ent XU line coach, set up the first Wildcats touchdown by recovering a Buck fumble on the five. The Wildcats' final and deciding touchdown was scored by the present back­field coach, Don Heap. "Tippy" Dye pas ed for both Ohio State TD's.

The Ohio State win in 1937, by a 7-0 score, was a big moment in Buckeye hi tory, for orthwestern hadn't lost a conference tilt since the end of the '35 campaign . The lone tie of the serie resulted in a scoreless battle in 1938 and the conference-champion­ship Buckeye team of '39 blanked the ' ats, 13-0.

The \Vildcats came back to cop the '40 and '41 contests by narrow margins. Bill DeCorreYont scored the lone touchdown in a 6-3 battle in 1940 and it was a case of brilliant passing by Otto Graham that guided Northwe tern to a 14-7 conque t of the Bucks in 1941. Bob Motl and Bud Haa e gathered in Graham a rials for the two touchdowns.

Gene Fekete, present a sistant backfield coach for Ohio tate, and Paul Sarringhaus were the shining lights in the Bucks' 20-6 victory of 1942. But Graham came bclck to grab the spotlight and spark

orthwestern to a 13-0 win at Evanston in '43, which marked only the econd time the 'Cats had shut out Ohio State. The Buck Yictory of '42 was

THE COMMISSIONER SPEAKS BY K. L. WILSON

Big Ten Conference Commissioner

Q UT IDE the fine points of the playing rule for foot­ball itself, I know of nothing which i more confused or confusing in the public mind than the regulations which govern intercollegiate athletics. Most of the confusion stems from effort to regulate recruiting and financial aids to athletes. I have felt it would be u eful, f r those friends of college athletics who will read this program, if I tried to set down the basic rule of the Big Ten in those fields, in simpler terms than appear in the legalistically-phrased code book we have, so there might be a better understanding of them. their purposes, and their application.

It showld be understood, of course, that these rules apply only to Big Ten schools. Other Conferences and independent institutions may, and to a large extent do have, different regulations.

RECRUITING. It is an interesting fact that all colleges today conduct intensive programs to recruit students gen­erally. \Ve who are in athletics are quite aware, however, that probably the most intensive recruiting is done among prospective athletes. To regulate that activity we have adopted certain restrictions upon our coaches and other school employees over whom we have direct control.

The underlying philosophy in our recruiting regulation is that a boy should be permitted to make the freest and most intelligent choice possible of the college he wants to attend, since it may be the mo t important decision of his lifetime. To assi t such a choice, boys are encouraged to visit campuses with their parents, to inspect facilities and meet staffs. In fact, their meals and lodging for two nights may be provided by the school on the occasion of a campus visit. But all interviews between coaches or other employees and prospective athletes must be conducted at that time, on the campus. In other word , coaches may not go off the campus to visit boys or their families in an effort to in­duce enrollment at a Big Ten school. The only other per­missible contact, aside from the campus interviews, is limited to correspondence explaining educational and fi­nancial opportunities.

I am often asked about the part of alumni in recruiting. Our rules, of course, cannot govern people outside the em-

22

ploy of our schools. Moreover, we think it is a healthy thing to have alumni with sufficient pride in their schools that they will want to interest prospective outstanding students to attend them. As a re ult it is common practice and our rules do not seek to prevent alumni from bringing boys to the campus to in pect the school and talk with the staffs, including coaches. Where we do draw the line, how­ever, is in the collection of funds among alumni or others to end a boy to the campus or otherwise to compensate him.

FINANGIAL AIDS. There is a very common misunder­standing of the financial assistance Big Ten athletes may receive, growing no doubt from the fact that we have tra­ditionally sought to pursue the amateur ideal in athletics even while that term has come to have very confused mean­ings. It is true that we bar oll unearned financial aid from outsiders, other than parents. But it would be ridiculous to deny athletes access to the approximately $1,750,000 that Big Ten chools make available each year to assist under­graduates with various special qualifications in obtaining their educations.

\Ve have two principal standards that govern financial aid:

First, any financial as istance (other than from employ­ment or from the boy's family) to an athlete must be awarded by the 1·egular scholar hip committee that awards aids to the student body generally. Thus we outlaw alumni or other funds set up independently to assist athletes, al­though alumni and other organizations may collect funds and turn them over to the school for award in accordance with regulations of the Conference and the local scholarship committee.

Second, no athlete may receive any scholarship or grant­in-aid unless he first qualifies in accordance with minimum academic requirements. To qualify for aid in excess of tui­tion he must have been in the upper third of his high school class and while in school maintain a B-minus average. To qualify for aid only in the amount of tuition he must have been in the upper half of his high school class and in col­lege maintain a C average.

A third standarci is also employed, as the total amount of aid to athletes at any school must not e..xceed, in approx­imate proportions, the aid awarded to non-athletes.

A great many athletes in the Big Ten (about 650 last year ) are receiving scholarships (and I emphasize that term in its original and true meaning) in accordance with these standards and qualifications. We think very highly of the system, because the fundamental bulwarks against abuse are the academic integrity of the institution and the demon­strated academic proficiency of the recipient.

Obviously, however, many boys do not under these terms qualify for, or there is not available, as much aid as they need to see them through college. Many, therefore, depend upon work programs and earn ings. Because work can easily be a form of undercover ubs idization we insist that ath­letes who are working must (1) be performing useful work; (2) work for the full time they are being paid; and (3) be paid no more than the going rate in the community for similar work.

I do not have space in this article to describe how we attempt to enforce these regu lations-from detailed reports of aid awarded and job he ld and the filing of academic tran cripts for all athlete to the employment of special in­vestigators. or can I discu s here the constant effort to improve standards and practice by corrective as well as disciplinary action.

I will only ay that while we cannot claim perfection­any more than can be claimed in any line of human pursuit, our chools and our coaches do a pretty good job-far better than is popularly believed-in observing the regu­lations and the underlying, cardinal principle that inter­collegiate athletics are a part of the educational program and are justified only so long as they are conducted within line of sound educational procedure and policy.

Godfrey 1n

E. R. (Ernie) Godfrey, popular defen ive backfield coach of the Buckeye and :issi tant athletic director, is rving his 25th year as an Ohio tate football teacher. Having joined the staff of hi alma mater in 1929. Ernie i one of the veterans of \i\Testern Conference coaches.

The Health Center

M AJOR addition to the buildino-s of the Ohio State niver ity during it expansion program of the la t three years is the new Health Center for treatment, teaching and research in the healing art$.

Located directly south of Ohio tadium in the southwe t corner of the campus, the Center consists of five new buildings and two older structures. From left to right. they are: the Ohio Tuberculo is Hospi­t::il ( front left), the Columbus Receiving Hospital ( rear left), the new University Hospital and the Dentistry Building.

Building in the right foreground include the new Optometry Building, Starling-Loving Ho pita! and Hamilton Hall.

The new bnilding in the Center, co ting $17,600,-000 are part of a building program at the University, which, since 1948, has added a dozen new buildings and major additions to several other tructures. There are approximately 100 permanent buildings on the campus.

The new niversity Hospital, ri ing 11 stories and providing 600 hospital beds, is the largest of the

24

five-building center. The new D ntistry Bui }cling, firH of the Health enler group to be completed, ,rn -put into use late in 1950. The ne\\' $300,000 Op­tometry Building was dedicated in 1951.

THE OHIO UNION Q HIO tate niversity student appropriately played an important part in the planning of the University's Ohio Union Building. Students al o share in directing the oper­ations and activities of their $4,000,000 "dream," situated in the southea t section of the campu on N. High St.

Although tudent requests for a new Union had been voiced in the late 1920' , it wa not until 1946 and 1947 that a campaign brought results. At that time a petition received 14,325 student signature within five days-all en­dorsing the idea of a new structure to replace the old Union, which elated from 1909, and offering to pay five dollars a quarter in fees to finance the project.

The four-story structure, supervised by Director Fred­erick Stecker, is approximately 400 feet long and 200 feet wide. Its 192,982 square feet of floor pace include recrea­tional, social, cultural and eating facilities, as well as office space for student activity groups and numerous other con­veniences to erve the extra-curricular needs of the Uni­versity's thou ands of students.

The basement le,·el, where most of the recreational facil­ities are centered, has 16 bowling alley , an 18-table billiard room, eight table-tennis courts, a card room with 24 tables, photographic dark rooms. and a hobbies room.

On the ground floor, lightly below street level, are two ballrooms, a cafeteria, kitchens. a oda fountain tavern, and the Franklin Room. The ballrooms, each of which accommo­dates 1,000 couples, can be joined by raising a mechanical eparating wall. In the cafeteria, three serving lines facili­

tate speedy handlin.,. of the 584 customers who can be erved at one seating. The Franklin Room is designed

primarily as a dining room for commuters who bring their lunches. The tavern has tables and booths for 180 persons.

26

Its interior finish, as well as that of the Franklin Room, is of cherry paneling. The tavern has a flagstone floor and a huge corner fireplace with a copper hood.

The building's first floor has an outdoor terrace. with a dance area, overlooking Mirror Lake Hollow to the west. Facing the terrace are two lounges. This floor includes also a third lounge, a Conference Amphitheater, eating 253, a chapel, a ouncl-proof music room, a browsing library, ad­ministrative office , a powder room, rest rooms, a balcony overlooking the ballrooms, and the main lobby. Five listen­ing booths for recorded mu ic are a part 0£ the music room. The library, for leisure use only, contains new papers, periodicals and best- eller . The }.fain lounge contains a large double wood-burning fireplace and writing desk . In the lobby i the Union's Information Desk.

The second floor has a medium-sized dining room and a lounge, which opens to the we t onto the "Tip-Top Terrace," where food and refreshments are served. Also on this floor are 19 student activity offices, a file room and 18 private dining or meeting rooms. The tudent offices house tuclent and Union governino- bodie , dramatic and publication groups, and numerou other extra-curricular organizations. The offices are furnished with natural birch de ks. chairs, work tables, typing table and storage units. The dining room accommodates 105 persons and adjoins the lounge, which contain a memorial fireplace given by the Class of 1948. Two wall are cork covered from floor to ceiling, with special lighting for art e,xhibit and special di plays.

By their enthusiastic acceptance of the new Union and through their participation in its activities, the student body ha paid tribute to those who led in it planning and build­ing.

27

The William Oxley Thompson Memor i a l Library at Ohio State University was named for the University's fifth president. The $2,500,-000 project added the eight-story tower and wings (at the left) and other improvements. The library now contain s nearly 900,000 volumes.

THE MEMORIAL LIBRAR.Y

T HIRD large t project in the multi-million dollar expansion program of Ohio State University begun in 1948 was the enlargement of the Main Library to provide adequate, up-to-date facilities for a tudent body approximately five times as large as the number enrolled at the time the original building was erected.

The $2,500,000 project, completed in 1951, added six new reading rooms for graduates, undergraduates and faculty members, a "brow ing" room for the casual visitor, a completely equipped lounge for staff members, numerous rest rooms, a receivino­room, a bindery preparation room and a large room for binding work. Through remodeling of the present structure, it also provides numerous new and im­proved library features, including the addition of conference and seminar rooms.

Perhaps the ingle most important feature of the enlargement is the eight-story tower large enough to house more than a million books. In building a tower of this ize, the University not only takes care of present urgent needs but provides for the future as well. Many of the approximately 900,000 volumes currently listed in the 22 campus libraries were formerly stored in almost inaccessible places. ixteen years hence, at the average rate of book increases, the number of volumes will be doubled.

The book tower is located on the Neil Avenue side of the present building, and is flanked on the north and south ends by extensions of the two wings on the west side.

Approximately 122 by 54 feet, the tower consists of eight stories, the top six of which have two stack levels for each main floor. Around the east and west walls of each level are about 40 tudy cubicles, or carrels, primarily for use of faculty members and graduate students. Each level will also have two typ­ing carrels, sound-treated to prevent annoyance of others.

Among the other tower features are a freight elevator to operate between the basement and the first floor; two public elevator. to run between the basement and all other floors ; and a continuous auto­matic carrier to carry book to and from the circu­lation desk on the first floor and all 12 stack levels.

For the heavier volumes and those too mall to be handled by the automatic carrier, an electrically operated "dumb waiter" operate between all floors .

Ba ernent floor of the tower i devoted to a re­ceiving room, a bindery preparation room and a room for the binderv work. In the two latter rooms is handled the enormous amount of work necessary to keep the thousand of books in good repair as well a the binding of periodical . theses and doctoral dis­sertations.

The new addition is air ondition d from the sec­ond floor through the top floor.

On the second and third floor of the west addi­tion, which have been extended ome 75 feet toward Neil Avenue, are located fou r reading rooms, design­ed particularly for the use of graduate students and faculty. Each room accommodates 90 persons and has some 6,500 reference volumes. In addition, the graduate readers have direct acces to the tower stacks through connecting doors.

The ground floor of the north eil Avenue wing is given over to a student lounge or " browsing" room, containing current periodicals, rental books and selec­tions from the library stacks. The same floor of the ·outh wing has a staff lounge for women, equipped with locker rooms, a shower, a kitchen and a quiet room. A similar, but smaller, room for men staff members adjoins the student lounge.

Two new undergraduate reading rooms are pro­vided in the wings which have been added on the east ( or oval) side of the building. Each has a eat­ing capacity of 130 students.

Remodeling operations of the present Library structure have effected numerous changes to facilitate student usage and staff work. The e include moving the circulation de k and card catalogs to the main floor, the use of pneumatic tubes to send call slips from the circulation desk to all tack levels and es­tablishing an information de k on the ground floor near the main entrance.

The building has been dedicated as the William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library, in honor of the fifth president of Ohio State. The Main Library was built during hi pre idency .

• • • • Four Records Still Standing

ONE of Ohio State uni Yer ity's 1110 t widely­publicized athlete ha been the great Jes e Owens, who e running, hurdling and jumping proYided no parallel in the middle thirtie .

Born in Danville, Ala. Sept. 13, 1913, Owens later went to Cleveland where he attended grade school and East Tech. High School. As an Ohio tate ace under Coach Larry Snyder, Owens became known as the "world's fastest human", a title none denied.

The only athlete in the hi tory of the Olympic Games to win four gold medals, Owen , after 18 years, can point to four of hi record till tanding.

Je e achieved his greatest heights in the track realm on May 25, 1935 ,,·hen, at Ann Arbor, Mich., he br ke three world record and tied another. He was timed in 20.3 for the 220 yard dash, ince lowered to 20.2; was clocked in 22.6 for the 220 yard low hurdles, since lowered to 22.3, and was caught in 9.4 seconds in the century, only recently lowered to 9.3.

J e -e's greatest effort ,,·a in the broad jump, where he cleared 26 feet, 5-q. inche , a record which still tand , the oldest mark remaining in the college track and field archiYe .

The following year, 1936, Owens scored his famou triple crown in the lympics at Berlin. Three were in lividual efforts and the fourth wa while competing as a member of a relay team. Hi broad jump mark of 26 feet, SfB inche still stand a an Olympic record. So does hi 20.7 seconds in the 200 meter da h. Hi 10.3 econds in the 100 meter dash has b ·en equalled but not broken.

Owens joined Ralph Metcalf, Foy Draper and Frank \i\fykoff to win the 400 meter relay in 39.8 econd , a record which still stands de pite the great

field of c\a h men developed in recent y ars.

A member of the Illinois state athletic commi s1011, Owen i a frequent Homecoming vi itor.

Paul (Stretch) Ebert, Ohio State's all-American basketball center, scores against Illinois.

THE BASKETBALL OUTLOOK O RIO State Basketball Coach Floyd . . Stahl has lined up an attractive 22-game schedule this sea­son, featu ring 11 home games, including seven Big Ten contests. The Big Ten has abandoned the rigor­ous 18 conference game schedule. in effect last sea­son, for a more workable 14-game program.

Pro pect for an interesting cou rt team are bright, a - the Buckeye will feature a corinrr duo, com­po ed of all-American Paul Ebert and sophomore sen ation Robin Freeman. They figure to keep th net izzling this sea on. Thi talented pair will give Ohio State a one-two coring punch which will be hard to equal.

Coach Stahl will ha ,·e three varsity lettermen re­turning from last year' quad, which won 10 and lost 12. Two of the lettermen, Ebert and Dean Cook, were regulars. John Miller, the other letter winner, has played both forward and center. They will be joined by 11 additional varsity and junior varsity players of last year a well as by ten former fresh­man prospects. With a nucleus of 24 quad men. Coach Stahl will build his team.

The Buckeye have one of the finest basketball players in the country in Ebert. The agile, ix-foot. four-inch pivot man has re-written nearly all oi Ohio State's scoring records. J n hi fir t sea on oi intercollegiate competition, 1951-52, Ebert scored 443 points. Last season as a junior, Ebert scored 477 points in the regulation 22-game schedule, which set an all-time Ohio State single eason scoring record. This eclipsed the former mark held by another all ­American, Dick Schnittker who tallied ..J-69 points in 1950, also in 22 game . With the expected scoring help from Freeman, Ebert may break his own record this season. He is certain to break Schnittker's three­year coring of 1127 points. Ebert has 920 points in two seasons and needs only 208 points to et a new

33

record. Freeman could be one of the fine ·t ··outside shots"

Ohio tate has ever had. A prodigious scorer in high school, he has a deceptive jump shot which has baf­fled many defen ive performer . Freeman, who tands only five-feet, ten inches, averaged over 32 points per game at Hughe High chool in Cincinnati. His remarkable coordination and endurance will make him extremely popular with hio State fan .

As a running mate to Fr eman at guard, Ohio State will have many good pro pects. D an Cook, who won a varsity letter a a freshman, returns for his third ea on, and i the favorite for the other guard berth. Little Charle Ellis, five-feet, nine inches, who starred for Steubenville High two years ago, is an excellent pro ·pect. A splendid defensive player and an adroit ba ll -handler, E lli s i certain to play plenty of basketball this season. Two junior varsity award winners, Terry Smith and Ed Keeling, will see action in the run-and-shoot, pressing type game to be employed by Coach Stahl this season.

Two sophomores could be the starting forwards. Cleo Vaughn, a six-foot, two inch, all-Ohio athlete from Central High in Lima, and Don Kelley, a rugged, well-coordinated, six-foot, three-inch per­former from Cardington, figure to start the season. Both Vaughn and Kelley have fine spring, and even though neither is extremely tall, both boys are high­ly competent in rebounding. A pair of football play­ers, David Leggett and Tommy Hague, both six­feet, are fierce competitors. Leggett was an all-Ohio performer for New Philadelphia High, and until Robin Freeman broke hi mark, Leggett held the Ohio high school scoring record. Hague is an agile driver, who is ideally suited for the fast-break offense. Other forward prospects who will bear watching

SEAL

COAT-OF-ARMS

T HE latest ver ions of the Ohio tate Uni ,·er ity ea! and the Coat-of-Arms were designed by University Architect Howard Dwight Smith. accepted by the Faculty Council and officially ap­proved by the Board of Trustees.

The new insignia represents a simplification of the seal designed by the late Profe sor Thomas E. French, '95, adopted by the Board of Trustees, April 7, 1940, and the coat-of-arm , accepted November 5, 1938. All the basic symbolism of the e two insignia de igned by Prof. French a re retained in the simplified designs.

Joseph ullivant, member of the first Board of Trustees of the old Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College, designed the initial seal which \\'a accepted by the early trustee March 8, 1 71, and had been u eel continuously until 1940.

I held the upper hand by a 20-1 3 score in the third period of that thrill-packed encounter . but J erry K rall , Bob Brugge and Joe Whisler ·hi fted into high gear and drove the Scarlet and Gray to a 39-27 win de pite a brilliant 81-yard ga llop fo r a cor by the Wildcats' \ ' ic chwall.

Oh io tate nipped the 'Cat . 7-6, in 1947 in a contest that won national acc la im as the "sports oddity of th~ yea r.' ' Torthwestern eemed to have a win tucked away, 6-0, l ut on the fi nal play of the "ame, a \ Vi ldcat player fa iled to get off the field be­fo re play wa re.sumed and O hio late received an-

ther chance. T he Bucks pu heel acros the tying touchdc \,·n following everal consecutiv penalties again t orthwe tern after actual playing time had been concluded. The climax came wh n the at­tempted kick fo r the extra I oin t was blocked, but Northwe tern was offside. T he Bucks then made the point try good to win . 7-6.

The \ ildcats won the 1948 meeting on the trength of a bri ll iant runni ng display by Sophomore

Johnny Mill r. 1iller ground out 120 ya rds in 14 running tri es and scored twice to spearhead a 21 -7 N victory. It wa a Ro e Bowl year fo r the \ Vilcl ­cats.

Ohio tate played turnabout in 1949, bea ting Iorth,vestern by 24-7 and gaining the Ro e bowl bid

with the conference champion hip. The 1950 defeat was a bitter one for Iorth­

western . The \ i\f ildcats went into their ' 'H ome­coming" contest with fou r tra ight wins, but Karl

tur tz' s 95-yard return with the opening kickoff for Ohio tale • tunned orthwe. tern beyond recovery and the Bucks coasted in, 32-0.

All-American \ ic Janowicz ,rn the diffe rence in 1951 in Columbus when he kicked a 16-yard field goal against a driving wind in the final quarter fo r a 3-0 verd ict.

In 1952, Ohio won at E van ton in a 24-2 1 thri ller after trailing 21-7 going into the fourth quarter . Li ttle Tad ·w eed kicked a 15-yard field goal late in that fina l stanza after O hio tied it at 21-21.

Ohio State. He i a rugged, competitive player. Charles Ropes, who aw limited action last ea on, along with Charle A nni , are center candidate . Both players stand ix, fret , fo ur inche and have looked good in pre-sea on drills. Sophomore Jack Keller , ix -feet, fo ur inches, hows fine promise. Keller is a

fine ''hook shot" peciali t.

As in the past three easons, Ohio tate will be handicapped by a lack of overall height. No player stands over ix-feet . four which means the Buckeyes wi ll be giving away many val uable inches to the op­position. H o\\·ever , with a scoring punch headed by E bert and F reeman . the Buckeyes will give their op­ponents many anxious moments.
