OHIO COACH HAS DIFFERENT attained almost over night for the
OFFENSIVE FOR WOLVERINES Minnesota battle.'

Ohio State's squad will enter the
fray in the best of condition. Every
man on the squad, with exception of
Blair, injured several weeks ago in
practice, is in good shape, and unless
last ininute hurts befall, should have
to make no excuses on that score.
GOLF NOTICE
Due to the fact that the Ohio State
golf team has just been organized
the game scheduled for this morning
has been called off.

Columbus, O., Oct. 21.-Full of hope
but not at all over-confident, Ohio
State's football squad, after toiling up
to the last minute to prepare for the
"crooshul" contest with Michigan to-
morrow, will leave early tonight on
the first of seven special trains which
will bear the Buckeyes and their sup-
porters to Michigan.
Same Lineup Probably
Indications are that Head Coach
Wilee will probably start the same
team which lined up at the beginning
of the Minnesota contest last week.
The only pissible changes are in tfe
backfield, but it is believed that Hon-
aker, who time and again burst
through the Gopher forwards a week
ago, will get the initial summons along
with Stuart and Taylor.
It is no secret here that the Wol-
verines will be forced to combat a
different offensive .from that which
baffled Dr. Williams' proteges last
Saturday. The Ohioans have put in
a full week-not a moment being lost.
Teams About Even
The great day at hand, the elevens
are believed here to be about evenly
matched. Where the Buckeyes per-
haps have an edge on the line, Michi-
gan, by reason of Steketee's presence,
has the bulge In the backfield despite
the injur of Usher and Banks. In
weight tetwo teams balance almost
to a pou d. In experience, brain and
brawn there is a similar equal
division.
The team that gets the jump and
perhaps the breaks will likely get a

OHIO STATE WITH RECORD STAINED BY OBERLIN'
DEFET MEETS WOLVERINES AS YET UNTRIED,

(By Wallace F. Elliott)
All through the past there have
been todays and todays and todays!
But not for many a moon has there
been such a one as this, the 22nd of
October, in the year of our Lord, 1921.
Yesterday Ann Arbor was invaded by
a group of husky, fighting football
warriors of Ohio State university, and
all through the hours until the start
of the big contest at 3 o'clock this
afternoon, thousands of upon thou-
sands of backers of the Scarlet and
Grey will pour into the city.
The Buckeyes come in pomp and
glory. Two short , weeks ago, last
year's champions of the Big Ten,
they were the laughing stock of the
mid-western football world. They
had opened their season auspiciously
enough, having downed Ohio Wesley-
an's fighting eleven 28 to 0, but a
battle of two weeks ago made them
bear the brunt of the humorist wit and
scorn of their. future opponents. For
had not Oberlin college, with ,a grid-
iron aggregation of supposedly small
calibre, taken them boldly by the
scruff of the neck, outplayed them,
outgamed them, and outlucked them,
massaged the visage of Mother Earth
with them, and come out on top of
the score column with the winning
margin of 7 to 6? Ohio State held
no terrors for the Big Ten after that.
Upset the Dope
But on the following Saturday, the
giant Norsemen, of Minnesota, clean
limbed and powerful, journeyed to
Columbus, confidence radiating from
every fibre, for the first gridiron con-
test ever staged between the two in-
stitutions. Dr. William's men would
win easily-even the Columbus critics
acknowledged that fact. But with the-

shrilling of the first whistle the crit-
ics were dumbfounded. Gone was the
erratic attack, the weak defense, and
the general shiftlesness which had
characterized the Bupkeyes in their
defeat at the hands of little Oberlin.
Instead they saw 11 men fighting as
one unit, 11 men with all the aspect
of the proverbial stone wall on the
defense, 11 men charging in unison on
the offense, driving the Gophers back
yard by yard, hurtling forward passes
of fatal directness, no longer the joke
team of the Conference, but once more
the Big Ten Champions of last year.
It was the Ohio-California game of
last New Year's Day all over again,
only, as a Columbus critic so aptly
put it, "with reverse English." Ohio
did the unexpected throughout, and
won, not by a narrow margin, but
with ease and simplicity. The score
was 27 to 0.
Today Ohio meets a team with three
overwhelming victories to its credit,
a team that has not yet experienced
real competition. Michigan had ex-
pected to go into the game confident of
victory. All this is a thing of the past.
It will be a fight from start to finish,
with some favoring the Ohioans, some
the Wolverines:
Wolverines Untried
Michigan started off her season in
noble fashion against Mount Union
college. That is to say, the score
was noble. The Maize and Blue knot-
ted itself around the Purple and White
of the collegians, strangling it, put-
ting it down" to the grimmest defeat.
The score, 44 to 0, does not begin to
tell the story of Michigan's superior-
ity. Nor is it necessary to say more
here, for on the following Saturday
Michigan met and drove from its feet
a stronger team than that of Mount
Union. Case fell a victim to the Yost
attack, 64 to 0. Second team men
were largely used in this procession,
and had the first stringers been in
throughout the scoreboard might have
run out of figures. M. A. C. put up a
more stubborn attack, but was victim-
ized as were her predecessors, 30
points going to Michigan and none to
the Green and White.
So today we have them; one, a
team which has been through a bap-
tism by fire and come clean; the other
an aggregation of men who have nev-
er experienced real competition, but
ready to fight to the last whistle.
Michigan vs. Ohio State. Champions
of the Conference against aspirants
of little known ability. It will be a
great battle, and may the best team
win!
