(sports writer for Minneapolis Star-Sentinel) stated his case very ably However I believe he missed a few points which deserve pointed consideration So herewith just endeavor to bring them out and bring you up to date on the matter you heard the saying Avhich gained renown a few years hack throughout the Big Ten a Frances or pulled a etc Well as you know Schmidt used to do his best at Ohio State He Avas famous for scores like 65 to 0 52 to 6 and so forth He thought he was feathering his nest with such scores And so the saying was born He used to leave his first stringers in for at least

or eight years been trjingto make the grade with such men as Tommy Harmon and swing it With a name like that he (Crisler) should let his hair buy a fiddle and see what ho can do with it But that is beside the issue So what happens? this year He plans his schedule with the cunning of the Gestapo (if I may borrow your wording) by having an open date the week before the Minnesota game So he practices and practices The big day arrives and he sends his Lend Lease outfit out to a He fields a team that has all of ONE Michigan man on it Paul White Stop me if wrong but Mr White heard from all

with tills Tn case you lirar that game let me inform you Hint Daley and Hindi played every hit of the fracas except that last six minutes That my dear Ev is wliat you call a Schmidt I roiild go on hut there is really no point closing like to say that when the day of reckoning comes I do not believe that Minnesota will pour it on that is to say Tull a I use that ugly phrase any more I think
