won. on young Coshocton high school football fan said it just the game Friday with this crack: they hTdn't played the fourth quarter the Redskins would have That's exactly right. The Redskins not only were ahead on the Scoreboard, 7-6, but they were put in front in the statistics column. But in that last period Jerry Bishop, a 150- pound halfback, broke the hearts of the Coshocton players andf ans. Carrying the ball eight times in the final quarter, the little Wildcat gained 105 yards and made touchdowns.

He got off a 25-yard run and two dashes of 23 each on consecutive plays. Of course, he had plenty of help in the way of blocking from his teammates. One of 25-yard touchdown run big Jim Tyrer (6-6, 232) was the interference knocking Coshocton defenders out of the way with apparent ease. defeat again, Coshocton fans were much happier they were the week before. The Redskins appar- enflv out to make up for their poor showing against Marietta, played well most of the game.

There was an occasional lapse that helped the host club. Penalties and fumbles again hurt. Of course, some of the fumbles were not exactly errors by the Redskins. Whent they saw a chance the Wildcats grabbed at the ball and were successful sometimes. coming that close to victory the Redskins are go- BUCKEYES THUMP ILLINOIS 26-6 ing to be trying even harder Friday night to score that first win.

iSHOCTON'S fine marching band made a big bit with the Newark fans at halftime. The CHS musicians staged another of the good performances which Coshocton fans have beens accustomed to seeing. The bands stole a book from a practice inaugurated in recent years by some football teams. The CHS bandsmen left here at 3:30 p. m.

in three chartered buses At Newark they were met by the Wildcat musicians and taken to tneir various homes for supper. EVERAL weeks ago we tried to get the names of the people who lead the CHS band in the news column of The Tribune. For some reason some of them were left out, so we are going to try again. The high-stepping fellow with the big hat is Jerry Thomas. The Into maid? are Peggy Ohnstead, Ellen Craig Linda Stephens, Shirley Robinson, Shirley Kamban and Susie Fox.

RIDAY night is Homecoming and everyone would like to see the Redskins start winning as part of the celebration. After seeing the score of the Cambridge game with Zanesville, hopes here started soaring. Cambridge has impressed with a victory over Dover and near wins in early games but Friday night the Blue Devils could do no wrong Is they ran up the highest score recorded in the Central Ohio League recently. Seven Blue Devils scored as Coach George Vlerebome used second and third stringers during much of the game. Three of the fullbacks who ran for ZanesviUe scored.

Other scores came on pass interceptions, passes and all kinds of long runs. However Coach Rex Hoon is among the first to warn the Redskins that the Bobcats will be better here wan they were last Friday. They will be on the rebound and will be trying in every possible way to make up that defeat. The Bobcats have a varied assortment of plays and fans can expect to see the ball flying around often when the teams collide here Friday. TTTE have hesitated to mention this but having read num- erous articles praising their work by other writers and remembering that if we had missed quite a few people we know would be making belittling cracks we have decided to recall to the minds of you readers how we predicted the major league races.

Although we admit we didn't forecast exactly right how each team would finish we did manage to pick up the top two teams in each league and name the four teams in tne first division of each. Back in April we said the New York Yankees would repeat in the American League and while others were predicting lower spots for the Cleveland Indians we placed them in second place again. We had Boston ahead of Chicago but the White Sox got their usual third spot. We had Detroit in fifth but missed on the exact spots of the rest of the teams. Various predictions were made about Milwaukee winning the National-League flag but we weren't surprised when the Dodgers came charging through in the last days of the race because we had said in April that Brooklyn would repeat We lifted the Cincinnati Redlegs into the first division but made the mistake of rating the St.

Louis Cardinals ahead of them. Of course, that was before Frank Lane traded oil those good Cards. We fouled up on the last half or the National standings because Chicago's Cubs folded and the Pittsburgh Pirates surprised everyone. After so much success on the season we refused to get involved in picking the winner in a short series like the big classic last week but, looking backward now, we probably would have picked the Yankees. EAN Smith, better known as an outstanding basketball and baseball player at Roscoe high school, is playing football at Ohio State.

Smith is one of the 28 backs still on the OSU frosh squad and is reported to be the fastest in the group. Several cuts have been made in the freshman squad but Smith now stands a good chance of staying. Smitty played basketball and baseball for four years at Roscoe but never came out for football until almost the middle of the season last year. He practiced for the first time ever on a Thursday evening and the next night turned several nice runs as Roscoe scored its lone victory of the season. Coach Dan Butler recommended him to Ohio State coaches on his baseball ability but encouraged him to try out for freshman football.

Purdue Stuns Notre Dame Fans With 28-14 Victory By GENE LUDEAU United Press Sports Writer SOUTH BEND.

Oct. 13 (UP) Purdue, led by a pair of, counting halfbacks and directed by quarterback Lenny Dawson, reseated a 1954 achievement today and racked up a 28-14 upset triumph over Notre Dame. The Irish entered the contest seven point favorites, but with a line containing four sophomores as green as the jerseys they wore. Junior fullback Mel Dillard and halfback Tom smashed through that fine from beginning to end and together put 214 yards behind them in 42 carries. Dillard capped his efforts with two touchdowns, both short hauls, and.intercepted a pass to stop a Notre Dame threat.

Fletcher had the longest touchdown romp of the afternoon, a 26-yard sprint around the Irish right end for the Boilermakers" fourth period touchdown. The result was reminiscent of two years ago when an underdog Purdue team upset Notre Dame, 27-14. The story was told on the ground and it started early as the Boilermakers returned the opening kickoff for, an 80-yard march in 11 plays and gave it to Dillard to move it over the goal line from the two.

In yesterday's action Purdue and the 'Michigan eleven battled on even terms in the first half with both teams showing some effective offense, but mostly defense. Then -the Boilermakers, paced by the dazzling running of little Tommy Shutt, scored their lone touchdown in the third period. Shutt raced 25 yards for a first down on the Michigan 30 and then on the next play went around end for the TD. J.

C. Brungart plunged over for the extra point. Butch Corder, Michigan quarter- hack, mar'e several good runs and once got his team to the Purdue three-yard line before the strong defensive play of Clyde Buckmaster, Ricky Shaffer, Rickey Wells and Jim Smailes, stopped Corder and his team before they could reach, pay-dirt. Rugged Bob Fritz, Dave Me- EMey, Jack Chilcote and Vic Anderson stood out on defense for the losers. Ohio State recovered Iowa's fumble on the first play from scrimmage in the second game and put the ball on the Hawkeyes' 35-yard line.

On the Buckeyes first pity, Bob Scheetz hit right end Sid Johnson for a 10-yard pass and Johnson raced the remaining 25 yards for a touchdown.

It was the Buckeyes' 14th consecutive Big Ten victory. Ohio State's burly guard, i Parker, acclaimed as one of the nation's top linemen, turned in a terrific offensive blocking game that made it possible for the state backs to riddle the mini line.

He also cSd a tremendous job on defense. Parker personally set up the second Buckeye touchdown when he recovered Bob Mitchell's fumble on the Dlini 10. Then he was tfie key blocker protecting quarterback Frank Ellwood when be passed to Jim Roseboro for 14 yards and the score. a was Roseboro's second tally of the day, the first coming on a one-yard dive after Galea Cisco took advantage of a block in the line by Parker to ramble 62 yards down the middle and se' up the "marker. Ellwood personally accounted for the other Buckeye scores, go ing six yards for one and driving over from the one for the other.

On both Parker was the key blocker as usual. Iffinois, bean last week by Washington in its second game of the season, made a better show of strength than expected. Harry Jefferson scored for the IflM on a 44-yard run in the opening four minutes, taking a wide pitchout to move past an Ohio line jammed with nine men for a fourth dowa and. one situation. But from then on HMnois could- not threaten strongly.

The" best march went to the Buckeye 15 before it broke up and twice Russ Bowermaster intercepted passes by Hiles Stout to stop Illinois, once on the 10 and again on the Illini 34, preceding the Buckeyes' third touchdown. Ohio State tried only three passes, Ellwood completing two for 29 lards, and on the ground the Juckeyes crunched out 307 yards compared to only 223 for Illinois. It was the third straight win this season for Ohio State tied for Lhird in the national ratings this week, and the win left the Buckeyes only one game short of tying Michigan's record for consecutive conference triumphs.
