A new theory of foothill brought to Ohio fitat by Pul Brown, former high school cosch, todsy make th Bueka Wtrn conferene champion snd topnotchers nationally.

H. O.

They have speed and talent and they'r beautifully coached: yea, beautifully coached." From the wily Crisler this wss a great compliment to Brown's theory of footballthat a perfectly conditioned team ahl to execute playi with speed and prerlainn can be beaten only by a vastly auperlor eleven. "Precision raol," aa Brown la affertlonale ly known In dividual performance.

Saturday championship triumph over Michigan, he gaid, waa a team victory. It also waa an exhibition of diversified offense. When Ohio' famed ground attack waa stopped by a great Michigan line, tha Buck trurk through the air eight time with a allppery hall. Six passes were complete. Three passe went for touchdowns.

Kach was designed in advance aa a coring' play. Their success waa the result of precision execution. Hrown came to the Big ten In 1P41 and last year hi team lost only to Northwestern and tied a superior Michigan team. Thl year, Ohio bowed to Wisconsin, 17 to 7 "They played 110 per cent ball that day and we were only going BO per cent," said Brown and haa won eight games. Saturday the Buck tackle Lieut.

Bob Shaw a great job, Paul Sar. rlnghaus was plain swell. Gen Feketi and Csuri wera ound solid. Lin Houston waa tough to lick. Lea Horvath played n.

other great gam and Bill Vlckroy turned in another of hi best. It waa a team victory." Sarringhaua, Shaw and Horvath made the touchdown on passe and Fekete placa-klcked th extra point. Ohio used IB player and Michigan only 17. Against the Beahawks In the season's final game Saturday Ohio will have to dig deep into it bag of football trick.

19.17. Michigan Saturday wasn't the perfectly functioning team that beat Notre Dame 32 to 20 the week before, but the alert Bucks so applied their apeed that they gave the Wolverlnei hardiv a chance. First they blocked a Michigan punt. Then followed recoveries of three fumbles and two pass interceptions. That left the Wolverines with only two real scoring opportunities.

One they made good. The ha'lftlm gun ended the other on Ohio three-yard line. The Ohio win gave th Buck their fifth conference championship and the second alnce IBM. In 1033 they shared the MI. It also was their first win over Michigan since 1037.

(Sixteen of the nation's college football teams have finished the season with all-victorious records, lesving only three others Tulsa, Georgia Tech and Boston college with chances to complete their schedules unbeaten and untied.

The select group lost two of its members Saturday when Georgia, winner of Its nine previous stsrts, ws bounred by Auburn. 27-13. ana Hardln-Simmons, a seven- gam winner, waa held to a score- lees tie by Texas Tech. Tulsa and Georgia Tech are the only teamR in the unbeaten, untied ranks with as many as nine victories. Tulsa is the scoring leader with 37 points hut now haa yielded 25 points to opponenta.

Boston college, with eight triumphs, winds up Its season this week as do both Tulsa and Georgia Tech. The unbeaten, untied teams, with their season's records: Half rnrirrdogn In Tlnirriay Morning Duel With Carroll By riUfi IHKTRICH TIME RUNS out on Akron university's Zippers Thursday morning at Rubber Bowl when they battle John Carroll in the traditional Thanksgiving day football struggle. Kickoff is set for 10:30 o'clock and will find Carroll established as odds-on favorite to even a few scores with Otis Douglas' courageous but luckless warriors. There seems little doubt as to Who will win. In most quarters Carroll is being rated three touchdowns better than Akron.

The series dates back to 1934. During that time the Blue Btreaka have won twice by 13-6 in '34 and 2f-6 in '39. The other games resulted In Akron victories 7- In '35. 33-7 in '36, 6-0 In "37 snd '38, 40-0 in '40 and 21-12 in '41. In short.

Coach Tom Conley haa several good reason for closing the gate of mercy Turkey day morning If tha balance of power rests with the Blue Streak. Douglas, always on to play th string out, still nurses the hope that his Zippers will forget past mistakes snd misfortunes long enough to muster a good gam of football. Win, lose or draw, the Zips will perform sgainst worthy opposition, Conley hss his best team in recent years. Carroll is playing freshmen this fall. The recruits, led by Joe Romano, an end who prepped at Mansfield high, have combined with veteran talent to give the Streaks an unusually strong defensive team.

On offense Carroll has been none too impressive although the Clevelanders have won three snd tied two gamea in seven Starts. Losses were suffered at the hands of Xavier, 26-7, and Western Reserve, 21-0 -two of Ohio's stronger teams. Leading accomplishments, of course, were vlrtories over Case, 12-0, snd Baldwin-Wallace. 7-0. Wonater fell, 6-0, and deadlocks were played with Toledo, 6-6, and Wright-Patterson Field, 0-0.

Akron and Carroll have met only two common foea, the Tip. per bowing to Reserve, 89-0, and B-W, 32-0. Al Franceaconl, former Buchtel high athlete, la keyman In Conley's vsriation of the formation, playing quarterback. It's do or die for the Zips who have only a 6-6 tie with Muskingum to show in seven starts. You have to go back to Buchtel college in 1P1 to find a hilltop team that failed to win st least one game.

Don Bell, Zipper blocking back, may not face Carroll. He has been ill with a mouth and throat Infection. Fullback Charley White snd Tackle Barrett Smith also will miss the finsl because of broken bones. Douglas hoped to hear today whether or not Massillon Wash-Ington high school's nationally famous band would mske a guest appearance here Thursday morning under it director, Georg "Red" Bird.

A Rivals Clasli Thanksgiving AKRON'SCITY- SERIES playoffs enter the payoff stage Thursday afternoon at Buchtel field when Kenmore and Central meet for big: stakes, the schoolboy football champion ship. First scholastic grid battle In history to be played on Thanksgiving day, th game promiae to attract a near-rapacity crowd If the weatherman obliges with a sound, dry gridiron. Kickoff Is at 3 o'clock. And.

should th footing he firm, the rivals promise to provide a thrilling climax to tha 1942 season. Kenmore, big as Akron teams go, generally is recognised ss th city' foremost defensive tesm. Central stresses offense snd Is confident that Its psssing gam can prove Cardinal vulnerability. Roth have fine punter. Halfback Harry Anderson ha boen putting opposing teams In the hole all fall with his booming kirks.

In that respect he rivals Georg Korora, Central fullback whose talented toe has been a prime factor In Wildest successes for two seasons. The Csrdlnals appear to have more power, thanks to Mel Flowers, Lee Holmes and Anderson. In apeed, however, the edge seems to lie with Central. And, if Kenmore has a decided weight advsntage, the Wildcats boast the more dangerous passing attack built around three fin pitcher: Jim Stroup, Charley Griffin and Jesse Rain. Of the trio, Stroup Is rated th best.

Injured prior to Central's opening game with East, he finally got bark Into the lineup for a play or two agalnat West as th Wildcats won their semifinal tussle, 7-6. Ted Oshorn hopes to have him ready for full-time duty Thursday.

NOVEMBER 1942 who was figured to be almost a tire thine. What so msny overlooked was the native, raw ability of a fight er having a fighting heart. The Tip The only tip I received on the fight came from Beau "I know he can outhox me," Beau Jack ssid. "But I think I got one Jump on him (mesnlng Stnls). I know he can't hurt and I know I ran hurt him a lot." Nothing could he fairer than that In the way of advance Information.

And that happens to be th way it worked out. Looking Ahead There can't be many fights left especially among the fighters. Fighters out of war servlc can't be too popular after a short while, and draft boards will soon take car of this situation. If such veterans ss Tunney snd Detnpsey are in if such up-to-dat stars as Joe Louis snd Billy Conn ar wearing fighting uniform there can't be any great enthusiasm for young fellow still cashing In at a time when they are badly needed in far mor important work. This again is up to the government and the draft boards.

But before the ultimate can happen. Beau Jack, the ex-bootblack and the ex-caddle, has at lesst moved up to a high spot In his game, where st the sge of 20 he csn afford to take it, if every-! thing is fror.cn. And for those In the service everything will have to he frozen. Reau Jack, on his part, would Just as soon stsrt shining shoes sgaln if there happena to be sny activity in that field.

23. In the twilight zone of the boxing game for the duration of the war, it remains for an ex-bootblack and ex-caddle by the name of Beau Jack to hold part of the waning spotlight. Beau Jack at least remaina th top man in the lightweight division, with the defeat of Btols and the retirement of Sammy An-gott. Beau Jack will have to he In a big hurry to cash in on his position, sine he, with all other young fighters, is almost sure to be wearing khskl at an early dale. Thla includes Robinson and Armstrong.

Few know the tough position Reau Jark and Chick Wergcle, his bounding manager, faced before the Stolis fight. They had to guarantee Stola $10,000. They also faced a forfeit of $2,000 in case Rcati Jack failed to make the weight at 135 pounds. Beau Jack's normal weight is at 137. Th point is that neither Mesara.

Wergeles nor Beau Jack had anything Ilk $12,000 to Invest in thla engagement. They had been moved Into a spot where $200 wss pretty important money. And her they wer blinking at $12,000. Taking No Chances On th day before th fight Beau Jack still registered In the general neighborhood of 137 pounds. He couldn't take this weight off by shining shoes or caddylng.

So th alert Chick put th ex-bootblack through an ordeal that might have turned Camera into a middleweight. This included drying out, no food, extra rosd work, shsdow boxing and hard and heavy rubbing. As a result. Besu Jark weighed slightly over 132 pounds when the time came to weigh In. He had Just enough stamina left to walk to the scales.

For this reason the odds sgainst him Jumped from to 5 to 18 to S. Better Than Good It so happena that Beau Jack, th ex-bnotblack, Is no part of a soft In order to regain part of his native stamina, sfter weighing in, put sway something like a gallon of soup, chops, a steak and a few potatoes. Proving the sdvantage of clean living, he was soon back to 137 pounds, which those backing Alll Stole couldn't believe. But all this was certainly no big help against one of Stoic's ability. Facing this handicap In weight making, Beau Jack had to be better than Just fair to take the hurdle, especially against a boxer DRINK HABIT A.C YEARS' EXPERIENCE .41 SUCCESSFULLY TREATING I MEN AND WOMEN cYol a Arpoifermlc treatment Wrilo.
