COLUMBUS. -(A')-- Ohio State's Buckeye gridders turned in a prac- tice performance Wednesday that might have been entitled, "You don't need a defense if your offense is strong enough."

"And from here on in, that boy ought to do great things at his guard position." Munn was talking about that stocky little .Kiski product from New Ken- sington, Pa., Ralph "Tugboat" Fritz, whose sharp, telling blocks in the Yale game helped to rip open the Eli for- 'xward wall for the .4 speedy Tom Har-' non- to knife through for gain after gain. Ralph Fritz After three games. in which he himself admits that he failed to show the calibre of play of which he is capable, the "Tugboat" came through Saturday 'with. the most improved exhibition which any member of the Michigan squad has made over previous encounters. "It was about time, too," says Ralph; who is now eagerly looking forward to the coming games, especially that "re- venge" tussle with Minnesota. Sharp Improvement In Blocking In the opinion of Line Coach Munn, Fritz showed particular improvement in his blocking, both at 'the line of scrimmage and downfield Per- haps this was due to the fact that "Tugboat" takes a greater delight in blocking than in tackling, contrary to the attitude of the average line- man. "Most linemen would rather tackle than throw a block, probably because tackling is easier and more natural," says Munn. 'But not Fritz.n"I get far more pleasure from executing a good block than from making half a dozen tackles," he says. "It's a harder job, true, but when you rock a tackler off his feet, you know you've done something which has called for plenty of practice. And it's worth it to me." . Helped In Stopping Wildcats The greatest work turned in by the Michigan line last year, that of hurl- ing back the Northwestern onslaugh% seven times within the six-yard line and four times after the Wildcats had reached the two-yard marker, found Fritz at the bottom of every pile-up. Ralph had replaced' Bren- nan a few minutes earlier and his quick charge was instrumental in stopping Lynn Waldorf's ball carriers almost before they had started. "unrvai '.vnu ..
