Ohio State freshman"'re iv a ese
COLUMBUS (AP) -- Highly-touted Ohio State freshman wide receiver Ken-
Yon Rambo was arrested after a fight early Sunday and was found to be carrying
marijuana, police said.
After meeting with Rambo, Ohio State's athletic department decided not to dis-
cipline him.
Rambo was charged with drug abuse, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest,
said a police dispatcher who refused to give his name, He posted bail of $110
was released from the Franklin County Jail on Sunday morning.
The 6-foot-2, 185-pound receiver from Cerritos, Calif., was selected to USA
Today's All-USA team last year. He has played sparingly this season, but did have
a 42-yard kickoff return against Missouri on Saturday.
University athletics director Andy Geiger said Rambo would stay on the team
because there did not appear to be any indication that his conduct warranted pun-
ishment._11
"Coach Cooper and I have met with Ken-Yon and talked to several eyewitness-
es who were at the scene of last night's disturbance" Geiger said.
"Based upon the information we have gathered, it is our belief that while Ken-
Yon was at the site of the disturbance, he did not in any way perpetrate the situa-
tion, nor did he contribute to the general melee that took place.
"Ken-Yon will have to go through the legal process, but I do not believe, a
coach Cooper concurs, that the circumstances of this incident warrant his suspen-
sion or dismissal from the team:'
Rambo met with coaches at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center on Sunday a e.X-
noon, but refused to comment.
"Sorry, I don't have time to talk right now," he said before going into a locker
room.
Coach John Cooper also refused to comment or take questions.
Police said they were called to a restaurant near downtown to investigate a dis-
turbance early Sunday. When officers arrived at about 2:30 a.m., they saw several
people fighting and repeatedly ordered them to stop.
Rambo and another man, Charles Lewis, a junior at Ohio State, refused to quit
fighting and scuffled with officers, according to the police report. Both were taken
into custody and transported to the jail.
It was not clear whether Lewis and Rambo were fighting each other. They were
to appear in Franklin County Municipal Court today.
Lewis was charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, obstructing justice
and misconduct in an emergency.
Rambo's arrest comes three weeks after Buckeyes basketball coach Jim O'Brien
kicked three players off the team.
Sept. 8, O'Brien removed Shaun Stonerook, Jermaine Tate and Trent Jackson
from the team. Stonerook was kicked off because of grade problems. Tate did
follow coaches orders, and Jackson was arrested after an altercation with polic
"I don't think you can put these two things together" Snapp said.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) - Backup
quarterback Joe Germaine threw two
touchdown passes to David Boston
and directed a third scoring drive as
No. 7 Ohio State recovered from a
sluggish start to beat Missouri 31-10
Saturday.
Germaine was the Rose Bowl
MVP last year in relief of Stanley
Jackson, who is 15-0 as the starter.
He entered for Jackson in the second
quarter and hit a 43-yard completion
on his first snap.
His second snap was a 5-yard
touchdown pass to Boston that gave
Ohio State (4-0) a 14-10 lead with
6:09 left in the first half.
Germaine and Boston also hooked
up on a 28-yard touchdown with
11122 to go in the third quarter.
Germaine, who also was at the con-
trols when Michael Wiley scored on a
I-yard run late in the third, was 8-of-
12 for 186 yards.
Ohio State, which benefited from
great field position all day, is 9-1-1
against Missouri, although this was
the first meeting since 1976.
The Buckeyes have won 13 con-
secutive non-conference games and
coach John Cooper is 26-4 in
September.
IowA 38, ILLINOIS 10
Tavian Banks got Iowa rolling with
a weaving, juking 76-yard run and
the 11Ith-ranked Hawkeyes hit on
four other big plays in beating
Illinois 38-10.
Iowa (4-0) scored 17 points in the
final 8:08 of the first half to pull
away in the Big Ten opener for the
teams and leave Illinois winless in
four games under new coach Ron

Turner.
Tony Collins returned a punt. 6.1
yards for a touchdown and Matt
Sherman threw a 43-yard touchdown
pass to Damon Gibson with 5 sec-
onds left in the first half as Iowa togk
a 24-3 lead and held on througir~
sluggish second half.
Iowa failed to match its natio
leading 619-yard offense, finishing
with 413. But the Hawkeyes still fan
little trouble subduing the Illini ii'
final tuneup for next week's game at
No. 7 Ohio State.

passes and Mike Rose tied a Ross-
Ade Stadium record with three inter-
