It was Northweslern's game from start to finish, moving the Wildcats into second place in the Big Ten Conference.

Sophomore Quarterback Dick Thornton was virtually a one-man offensive for the Wildcats, passing for two touchdowns and plunging for version brought one point and he made two conversion points on a pass to Hon Burton after the Wildcats' third touchdown with 50 seconds left in the game. Thornton broke open the scoreless battle In the third period when he tossed i7 yards to Burton for the first score. It was the longest pass completion in Wildcat football history. In the final period, Thornton sneaked over from the one for Norlli-western's second touch down. Then be intercepted a Buckeye pass with less than two minutes to go and ran 26 yards to set the slage for bis final touchdown pass to VA kimbrottgh.

The upset by the six point underdog lldcats snapped a i 16-game undefeated streak for the Buckeyes, who were I touted as the pre season fa vorites for the Big I en title. For the Wildcats it was their fifth victory in six games. It also was the third game this season in which the Northwestern line did not yield a touchdown, Northwestern took over from the beginning, controlling- the ball in the first half on 41 plays, to only for the Kuckeyes. In all, they ran 76 plays to 73 for their foes. Northweslern's line yielded only 156 yards to the heavier Buckeyes and rendered their passing game almost useless.

Frank Kremblas completed only one pass out of 12 attempts. Thornton, on the other hand, completed five of 10 tosses for 122 yards while Ohio State aerials netted only 51. The Wildcats threw an early scare into Ohio State in the first period by penetrating to the Buckeye IS, but a pass from Thornton to Kimbroujjh failed. The Buckeyes' closest penetration ro it came In the- final period when they got to the Northwestern 18. Most of the time they operated in their own territory.
