OHIO Coach Woody Hayes tells a story, considerably embellished, about when defensive back Don Lamka came around three days after the Rose Bowl and asked for the chance to become Ohio Stage's new quarterback.

"I remembered that we had I recruited Don as a quarterback and I also remembered that he was a state high school champion wrestler," Woody is fond of saying with a chuckle. "I said, before he threw me to the ground." Whatever the reasons, moving the quick 200-pound senior from Cleveland back under center was an excellent Idea, as was proved Saturday when Lamka scored four times in helping amass 402 rushing yards in a 52-21 Big Ten football conquest of Iowa. A crowd of 75,596 sat through a sporadic rain as the defending league champions won their eighteenth in a row at home, the first ever on the new artificial turf, and helped get Iowa Coach Frank Lauterbur off to a horrible start.

fumbles in a 7-3 loss. Redmond was sacked twice after getting good protection earlier and said, "When things started going their way late, it made it that much tougher on us." Dennis connected on 13 of 30 passes for 138 yards hitting Doug Winslow on eight for 95 yards but the only way the Bulldogs could get on the scoreboard was with a 26-yard field goal by Bob Smith with 16 seconds remaining in the first half. Triple Coverage "Doug did a heck of a job catching the ball and I just wish I could have found him more often," Redmond said. Winslow at times was covered by three Aggies and although he seemed satisfied with his eight grabs, he said, "it sure wasn't enough."

Nearly three hours later, Iowa's new football coach still had the fire. The fists were no longer clenched, but there would, he promised, be another day. It all began Saturday morning. Lauterbur stalked from one end of a hotel lobby to the other minutes before the Hawk-eye bus left for spacious Ohio Stadium. "I'm nervous and anxious," he said, chain-smoking cigarettes.

"Sure, I've gotten ready for a lot of games in the past, but that old pre-game feeling never changes." Lauterbur leaned on his knees, chewed his fingernails, slapped people on the back, rubbed his head and raised his voice once he reached the stadium. Nothing did much good. He could have turned cartwheels on the 50-yard line and Iowa would not defeat Ohio State on this rainy afternoon. "Hey, Hey, Hey!" The coach yelled as his players performed calisthenics before the game. Woody Not Worried Lauterbur clapped his hands and the players clapped their COACHES- Please turn to Pag?

Lou McCullough was in a hotel room at Miami, this summer attending his first meeting as the athletic director at Iowa State University. It was a conference of the nation's collegiate athletic directors, and with him were Ed Weaver of Ohio State lems they face because of spiraling costs that beset big-time college spcrts. Finally McCullough picked up the telephone and pretended to place a long-distance call. "Hello, Woody, this is Lou. I want my oUt job back.

I'm doum here in Miami with athletic directors from all around the country and all they do is cry about money." When the laughter quieted, McCullough told his two counterparts: "You guys make it sound so bad there has be something good about being an athletic director." Budget Keeps Going Up McCULLOUGH knows the good outweighs the bad, or at the age of 46 he wouldn't have taken the job. But he also realizes it's no laughing matter when you look at Iowa State's athletic budget of J14 million for this school year and try to figure ways to balance it.
