making new use of "wheat germ oil" can turn in probably never before felt up to, a University of Illinois expert said today. The official said he encouraged Roger Bannister of "four-minute mile" fame to take doses of the wheat germ oil some time before the ace miler set the mile record last spring at less Woody Hayes Is Lucky at Ohio State By JERRY LISKA COLUMBUS, Ohio wi Coach Woody Hayes of Ohio State is lucky this football season. Nobody is pickikng his Buckeyes to Big Ten championship. That's almost as much a coaching asset in this football fanatical area as suddenly finding a snappy backfield which, incidentally, Ohio State should have this fall. Hayes will concede only a slight improvement over last year's Buckeyes who finished fourth in the conference with 4-3 and had an overall record of 6-3.

But some experts think the customary Buckeye depth behind a one-year wiser array of 10 returning regulars or near-regulars could be a distinct menace to such favorites as Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin whom Ohio State meets midseason in that order. Aside from C. Caroline of Illinois and Alan Ameche of Wisconsin- and Michigan State's Leroy Bolden, no other Big Ten school can match the Bucks' backfield brilliance provided by Johnny Borton, Howie Cassady, Bob Walkins, Dave Leggett and Jerry Harkrader. Hayes also has two good sophomore fullbacks in Don Vicic and Hubert Bobo. Ohio State's line figures to be improved over last season.

The ends will be handled by two veterans, co-captain Dick Brubaker, who should be one of the Big Ten's better flankman, and Dean Dugger, with sophomore Bill Michael the next best. There's a quartet of lettermcn tackles available, but George Jacoby is gone and Don Ssvartz, back from last season, has an ailing knee. Frank Machinsky gets first call at right tackle, while Don Stoeckel and Dick Hilinski must settle it at left tackle. The guards look strong with regular Jim Reichenbach, letter- Williams and Dale a powerful 245-pound Jim Parker, close competitors. Holdover center Ken Vargo looks like one of the best in the conference, backed by letterman Bob Thornton.

than four minutes. But the official said he is not "absolutely certain" that the lanky Briton used the oil in shattering the mile barrier. Disclosures of the energy- giving potential of wheat germ oil, the oil extracted from a grain of wheat, were made by Dr. T. K.

Cureton of the Uni, vcrsity of Ilinois physical fitness research laboratory. Cureton has examined the fitness of thousands of great athletes of present and past and is rated a top authority on human sports performance. Predicted Bannister Feat Cureton examined Bannister extensively nearly two years before he shattered the four-minute myth and predicted Bannister could do the job if conditioned properly. Bannister said after the famed run that he had adopted the set of muscle conditioning exercises Cureton had prescribed for him. Cureton has examined the effects of the oil on athletes and non- athletes for five years.

Those who consume' the oil are able to increase their stamina "roughly" three times more than the other participants in the tests, he said. Cureton said "very, very extraordinary" results are obtained when athletes using the oil are trained to the point where they usually go "stale" but actually, because of the oil, continue to c- crease their endurance markedly. Gives An Extra Punch Tests on middle-aged men completed recently at Champaign, 111., convinced Cureton that the oil definitely provides extra stamina for those engaged in strenuous athletic training or physical work. He said the oil holds hope of some day giving an added lift ing laborers and lengthy hikes or duties. Two University of Illinois athletes have given Cureton great confidence in the oil.

They are hurdler Willard Thomson and swimmer Jody Aldcrson. Both, he said, lacked the necessary "finishing kick" to be topnotch performers until they took the wheat germ oil. Then Tomson won the AAU 120-yard high hurdle championship and Miss AI- derson won the national free style 100 meter title and broke Ann Curtis' world record. to hard-work- soldiers on other taxing PHONE Suggs Favored At St, Louis ST.

Edwards, superintendent of schools at Peoria "You can't have a good intramural program without a good varsity program." The Peoria school board voted to return minor sports coaches to a salaried basis and increase salaries for head baseball and track coaches. This action reversed a trend a year ago when coaches of the minor sports were removed from the salaried list and virtually asked to donate their time something that most of them did in order to retain the sports.

ALEDO EXTRA Junior high school football may be doomed at Aledo as the school board ruled (hat inasmuch as limited finances did not permit proper outfitting of junior high school gridders, the board could not take the responsibility of permitting the boys to play scheduled games. C. H.

Thoman, principal at Aledo Hi and former coach and.athlctic director, urged the use of good equipment if the boys are going to play football; "If you can't afford to go into it right, don't go into it," Thoman urged. General interpretation of the move was that elimination of junior high football would prove a severe handicap to high school football prospects. A delegation of parents from Seaton and Aledo is making an effort to preserve junior high football. We arc indebted to Dick Judy of the Times Record (Aledo) for the above information.

LOUIS Wolfner, Chicago Cardinals managing director, says he has been approached about a possible transfer to St. Louis but any shift of the professional football team would have to be "because of a more profitable market." Wolfner, questioned at a news conference today, said he was contacted by Howard Baer, chairman of the, board of directors of the St.

Louis Chamber of Commerce. "I believe St. Louis would support big league football, too, but there would have to be tangible evidence of a guaranteed interest before I'd even consider moving," Wolfner, a former St. Louisian, said. Cardinal losses, he said, are absorbed by the Hawthorne race track, part of the properties he manages.

"Therefore, the Cardinals are not for sale and we are seeking no partners," Wolfner said. we moved the team, it would only be because of a more profitable market." The Cardinals play an exhibition game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday night. Baseball Crank Alarms Jackie BROOKLYN, N. Y.
