SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1?, 1935 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Ohio Governor Supports Hiring Of Buckeye Football Stars > ------- Most Of Team Paid By State, Executive Says Gov. Davi Labels Football As Supreme Purpose Of Higher Education Players Earn Pay Eligibility Of Athletes Not Endangered Is Rely Of Athletic Director COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 11.-(An)- Gov. Martin L. Davey pictured foot- ball today as "the supreme purpose of higher education," and said that most of the Ohio State University gridiron squad is on the State pay roll. James L. Renick, director of ath- letic publicity at the University, said 14 of the 57 members of the football squad were employed by the State. Many of them have part-time jobs. In a formal statement bristling with sarcasm, the Governor made his latest move to prevent the University from winning legislative nullification of a $1,266,500 cut he made in its biennial appropriation. His statement was prompted by University officials' assertion that de- pleted funds might force closing of the school within 10 days and the disclosure that such a shut-down might force Ohio State to abandon its hopes of winning Big Ten and National football honors. Earning Their Pay L. W. St. John, director of athletics at the University, said that players on the State payroll "are working for the money they receive and their eligibility is not endangered." Maj. John L. Griffith, athletic com- missioner for the Western Confer- ence, commented at Chicago that "players are allowed to accept state money if they work for it.' Gov. Davey branded speculation on possible disruption of the Ohio State football season as "one of the most amusing of all the frantic efforts that have been made . . . . to build up a gaunt spectre of a shutdown at the University. "As far as the football season is concerned," the Governor said, "we are all extremely interested in its success. We recognize the fact that football has become the supreme purpose of higher education. We certainly have done our part because we have most of the football squad on the State payroll, and we are ex- ceedingly anxious for a most suc- cessful season. Has Welfare At Heart "We want them to secure the championship by all means, and have co-operated to the fullest extent to make this possible." The Governor said he had no State payroll, but had "approved one last year." Davey's reference to Ohio State football players on the State payroll was the second instance in State ath- letics which had received the atten- tion of State officials. Jesse Owens, University track star, was employed as a page in the regu- lar session of the Legislature. After Owens had bettered three world rec- ords and equalled another, represen- tatives made him an honorary page at $3 a day. Speaker J. Freer Bittinger ordered Owens' pay held up when he was in- formed that the honorary position might endanger Owens' amateur standing. The American Athletic Union at Cleveland studied Owens case but postponed it indefinitely. Mainly Varsity Members Renick said that eight of the 14 football players employed by the State are members of the Buckeye first team. Several of the 14 are un- der Civil Service, he said. The controversy between the Gov- ernor and the University began last June 18 when Davey, in lopping $8,- 800,000 from the biennial State Ap- propriation Bill, cut the University budget from $7,155,600 to $5,889,100. What Story Will It Tell After Today's Battle All last year - week after week, at every home game with the excep- tion of that gala day when Georgia Tech bowed before the Wolverines, 9-2, the electrical onlooker pictured above blazoned out its requiem for the Michigan football team. This year 'dat ole ddbbil' scoreboard again got off to a doleful start when the now-mighty Spartans spent last Saturday afternoon teaching little offensive and defensive lessons to Kipke's men. Lets all hope that today the scoreboard will have reasons good and true to change its dreary Beethoven to "The Victors." Two Big Ten Swimming Stars Will Be On 37 Wolverine Team Big Ten Goes Away To Play Favored Foes Indiana-Michigan Game Is Only Conference rit Scheduled CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-- ()-- The Big Ten goes out of its own backyard for football competition Saturday with pretty fair prospects of winding up loser on the day's business. The conference can't lose anything at Ann Arbor, where Indiana and Michigan clash in the only game of the title schedule. The Hoosiers merit the edge, but the Wolverines appeared to be finding themselves in practice and might produce an up- set. In intersectional warfare, the Big Ten seems certain of two victories and just as sure of one licking. Whether a profit is to be shown de- pends on how Minnesota, Iowa, Illi- nois and Purdue fare against strictly top-notch foes. Ohio State's galaxy figures to carry too many guns for Drake, and Chi- cago should be able to look after Western State Teachers of Kalama- zoo, one of the tougher of the mid- west's smaller schools. Irish Are Favored Wisconsin, however, would need to accomplish a gridiron miracle to spoil Notre Dame's first invasion of Big Ten territory this season. The Bad- gers have been known to arise to dizzy heights on occasions, but the steadily improving and powerfully manned Irish appear to have the big edge. Illinois meets Southern California handicapped by injuries. However, wily Zob Zuppke more often than not has wrought upsets against ap- parently stronger intersectional op- ponents, and the Illini may surprise the Trojans, California weather and all. Minnesota, potentially powerful, but unimpressive in its first start. two weeks ago, rates as no better t than an even choice against Ne- t braska. The Gophers have a big, - talented squad, but Nebraska has . Lloyd Cardwell, ranked as a coming t All-American back, and a so far high- ly effective supporting cast. Colgate, primed with one of the t country's most intricate and effec- tive offenses, is favored over Iowa, y but not by much. The Red Raiders g have the bulge in experience, but in e Dick Crayne, Dwight Hoover and the e spectacular Negro, Ozzie Simmons, e the Hawkeyes have ammunition s enough to cheat the dope. t Purdue tackles Fordham at New York, rated as the underdog. The Boilermakers apparently have the making of a powerful team, but will not be at their bct Saturday unless John Drake and Cecil Isbell, regular backs, and Forest Burmeister, vet- eran tackle, all casualties, are avail- able. GEORGIA STAYS SOUTH After taking part in the intersec- 1 tional warfare for many years and - engaging Yale 11 times in the last g 12 seasons, the University of Georgia - arranged an all-Southern card for o 1935. Georgia conquered Yale, 14 to 7, in 1934 to become the first team in - history to whip the Eli five times in f a row. Today's Games MIDWEST Indiana at Michigan. Minnesota at Nebraska.

GOODMAN of Ann Arbor where the Michigan Spectators at the Michigan sta- dium this afternoon, viewing the Conference opener between Indiana and the Wolverines, will get an op- portunity to see two teams that spe- cialize in ultra-modern football, Middle West version. Both elevens feature passing and lateral plays that will stand com- parison with any air attack in the na- tion today. The Michigan team will depend largely on the right arm of Capt. Bill Renner. passer extraor- dinary. Vernon Hufiman and Wen- del Walker, two 190-pound backs, do the passing for the Fightin' Hoo- siers and can be depended upon to turn in a satisfactory performance. Most of Bo McMillin's plays are designed to carry a trailer behind the runner with the result that every play is a potential lateral. Huffman is especially proficient in the lateral game. The Indiana quarterback has an annoying habit of turning his back to the tackler, presumably for the purpose of allowing the trailer to finish the play via the lateral. However, this has its drawbacks for it makes it impossible for Huffman to dodge the tackler. Roy Eads, left half back, and Cor- bett Davis, fullback, complete the backfield. Eads is the blocker of the foursome and carries the ball on re- verses. Davis plunges, of course, and backs up the line along with Capt. Reed Kelso on defense. The punting is filled by Huffman who is labeled a triple threat man by the Indiana publicity department. His kicks are end over end but de- pendable. Sleepy Fowler, sub half, is a better kicker and will probably see action today. McMillin uses a complicated system using five or six different backfield formations including the Z, Notre Dame, and double wing back. The Z type is the favorite and is used behind an unbalanced line. The place kicking is done by Kelso, who is rated as one of the best in the country. In a practice session at Bloomington this week he made 74 in a row before Coach McMillin stopped him. FROSH SWIMMERS CALLED All members of the Freshman swimming squad are to report to Coach Matt Mann at 5 p.m. Mon- day at the Intramural pool.

ANDROS A double National Collegiate cham- pion had to work hard for victories over two of the swimmers who will be members of Coach Matt Mann's varsity squad in 1937. Baker Bryant, late of Ohio State, and Ed Kirar, formerly of Wiscon- sin, who took second places behind the phenomenal Chuck Flachmann. of Illinois in the 100 and 50-yard free-style events respectively in the last Big Ten tank meet, have trans- ferred to. Michigan and will be elig- ible for Varsity competition after they have been in residence at the University for one year. Eligible Two Years Both will have two seasons of var- sity competition remaining when they become eligible in the fall of 1936, having been sophomores at the rival Conference schools last year. National Interscholastic record- holder was one of the titles held by Bryant before he matriculated as a freshman at Ohio State. Although coming from a Michigan family, the ex-Buckeye has been residing in Co- lumbus. Bryant Defeats Wolverihes As a freshman Bryant attracted national mention with his prowess, and last year too second and fourth in the Western Conference cham- pionships, and a fifth in the National Collegiate meet. In a dual meet with the national champievnship Wolverine team last March, Bryant took the only first places Ohio State could gather, winning the 50- and 100- yard free-style races. The new Michigan natator has his mind set on a berth on next sum- mer's Olympic team, and with a year's work with Coach Mann under his belt, he should be ready to swim FACULTY SWIMMING CLASSES Matt Mann, Varsity swimming coach, will offer two series of swimming classes for male mem- bers of the faculty beginning Mon- day, October 14 at the Intramural pool. A beginners' class will meet Tuesday and Thursday from 10:15 to 12:30 p.m., and a section open to any faculty member will meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at the same time. the best race of his life in the trials next June. Kirar Pushes Flachmann Kirar came to the Conference meet last winter unheralded and proceeded to push Flachmann to the limit be- fore he yielded first place in the 50 The Kenosha Wisconsin product is a well-built lad imbued witha great abundance of fight, and Coach Mann expects him to rise to great heights along with Bryant. In an atmosphere that literally reeks with cha'ipionship swimming spirit, and urder the tutelage of th country's bWst coach, both of thesE newcomers are almost sure to becom star performers and vaiuwble asset: in keeping the Wolverine banner a the top of collegiate swimming.
