Bring On Recruits, Stl Paul Hrown Tenches 'Km What To Do. Former Alliance Mentor Says Former Setup At Columbus School Prevented Winners. BY" BOB C'ONSIDINE. New York, October 26-(INS) j0nio Sute University has the best football team in the country be- cause every high school coach In that state is determined ,0 their one-time colleague, Paul Brown, The amalgamated high school coaches scour not only their own teams but the teams of neighboring states looking for young talent for Brown's Ohio State teams. That they have done an excellent Job can attested bv the fact that Brown's 1941 Buckeye team, hla first, won six games, lost one and tied one.

This year the Buckeyes are unbeaten and may stay that way even though the rest of their schedule la severe including tha game Saturday against unbeaten, but tied, Wisconsin. This inside picture of one of football's greatest success stories was revealed in New York today at a rootbnll writers luncheon by Ensign Lawrence Gligor, who coached at Alliance, Ohio, High School when Brown was amassing his great record as coach of Massil-lon High. The latter school now has won 48 straight games, most of them during Brown's regime. GO TO OFFICIALS. Gligor stateithat the highly organized Ohio Qngh school coaches made strong representations to the officials of the state university when the job as head fnothail eoach became open.

Their candidate was Brown. the coaches were more Interested in getting rid of Brown as a rival than they were in getting him the best football coaching jjob in the jtate, Gligor did not fiUte. Suffjce u'(o My tnt th coaches association overruled all protests that Brown might not be able to teach football to college men. In addition, they solemnly promised to keep him supplied At the same time they admitted to the university officials that they, wie coaches, were so dissatisfied with the previous coaching setup at tha big Columbus institution that they deliberately had advised promising Ohio high achool stars to go to colleges outside the itate. LIGHT BUT BRAINY.

The thirty-two-year-old Brown, who was too light to play big league college football when ha was in school, is a leader of tha Inspirational type, his colleague itatcd. "Paul's just about the best coach In the country," he added with conviction. "He's a stickler for fundamentals. He builds his teams fast, lean, and hungry. Ha stresses top physical condition.

He won't let his playerj drop to the ground and rest when time out is called on the field. They stand erect. Not only that, but Brown has dispensed with the water bucket. He won't let them drink a drop during a game," Brown built Massillon Into such a football power that, even without his presenre, his team continue! to average a 10,000 crowd per game. At Massillon Brown confided each wegj with the entire town as to the plan of campaign for the coming game.

GOAL IS THERE. The club never suffered from a fifth columnist. Beating Massillon, however, became the goal of every Ohio high school coach. One coach loit only four games in three years, three of them to Massillion. He was Hired.

Gligor stated that Brown has silenced the man-eating Ohio Stata Alumni and has it rooting wildly for him. His futura looks rosy, what with hundred! of coaches serving as his scouts. Gligor was at a loss to explain how Frank Sinkwich, Clint Castteberry, and Ed Prokop stars of Georgia and Georgia Tech escaped from their respective Ohio tawns, even though the dragnet was out. "It won't happen again," Cligor said grimly. MICHIGAN STAR ENTERED In National Cross-Country Meet At Miami Saturday.
