Tatum, Brockington, Hayden and Anderson were all first round National Football League draft picks, and 13 Ohio State seniors were tapped by NFL teams. still have some fine foot ball players," said Hayes, who mentions Michigan, Michigan State and Northwestern as the top Big Ten title threats.

With the gifted Kern not at quarterback for the first time in three years, Hayes will turn to Don Lamka, formerly replacementt on defense, to run a less explosive attack. Don Lamka, recruited as a quarterback but used on defense in his first two seasons, provides Hayes with the type of field general he likes. The 181 pound senior from Cleveland is rugged, a strong runner and an underrated passer. Lamka, who called a signal in a college game, turned in an impressive spring. He hit 10 of 15 passes for 150 yards in the final scrimmage.

Three more Cleveland area products, Tom Campana, Rick Galbos and John Bledsoe, will man the running spots. Campana, a 190-pound senior, has the most experience of the trio, starting five games last year. Galbos, however, was the leading rusher among the three with 190 yards on 30 carries. Just two regulars return on offense, center Tom DeLeone and John Hicks, a 248-pound junior who should be one of the top tackles. The defense, which yielded 10 points a game in a 9-1 season in 1970, is in better shape with five starters returning.

George Hasenohrl and Williams, a pair of juniors who passed knee operations this spring, will man the defensive tackles and Ken Luttner returns at end. Stan White, the only athlete ever to play in Ohio football, basketball and baseball high school all-star games, is back at linebacker and Harry Howard, being switched to cornerback spot, is the lone defensive back The Buckeye running attack, a trademark of Hayes, will be strong, especially if Ohio State patches up its line tattered by graduation.

Wrigley Upset With Feuding CHICAGO (AP) Owner Phil Wrigley Friday called for a halt to between some Chicago Cub players and Manager Leo Durocher which he blamed on 65-year-oId unpopularity with he press. Wrigley, interviewed in the wake of a Monday clubhouse meeting in which several veteran players shouted criticisms at Durocher, told The Associated Press: there is friction. I know going on." Indirectly supporting Durocher, Wrigley declared the players should "put out everything they have for the He rapped Marvin Miller, leader of player union, regarding player attitude.
