But whether it has been called the Passes for 4 Markers Over-Rated Colgate Helpless as Modern Prototype of Cagle Dominates Conflict king of beasts because it can conquer any other beast is something else again. Big game men have debated the point for years, some contending that the tiger is a tougher customer and that a full grown tiger would make short work of a good healthy lion.

Others have maintained that the bear the big Kodiak bear, for instance would knock a lion over the top rope as the saying goes, if they STATISTICS MISS. 4 First downs OHIO STATE 19 4.

We wouldn't know about that for we never saw a lion fight a tiger or a bear or anything else but a chunk of raw meat.

But we do recall reading somewhere about a lion that once got into a bear pit at a zoo, gave an appraising glance to a husky grizzly and then, figuratively speaking, spit on its hands and said, "Dinner!" He is reported to have charged the walking chow line, which thereupon drew back its left paw (grizzlies are left hook artists according to this story) and with one sock knocked that lion to hellandgone.

Oct A week ago they said that he just wouldn't do, that he couldn't go in big time ball. But today he scored three touchdowns, played a great defensive game, and covered ground like an antelope as Ohio State defeated Missouri, 27 to 6, before 27,525 fans. We speak of Ernie Parks, huge seventeen-year-old Negro freshman from Canton, who is right halfback of the Buckeye "Kiddy Corps" and the state's 100 and 220-yard high school sprint champion. Parks carried the ball 27 times for a total of 207 yards, and scored his trio of touchdowns on jaunts of 10, 25 and 61' yards, with hardly a hand being laid on him. In addition, he intercepted a couple of passes, and backed up his side of the line like a veteran.

Parks had plenty of help. Sensational Dean Sensanbaugher, Uhrichsville, C- freshman, gained 152 yards in 23 attempts, the two-ball-toting yearlings accounting for 357 of Ohio's 451 gross yards. Missouri made good on only five of 18 aerials, but one was a long heavy by Bill Dellastatious to End John which covered 59 yards arc', was good for the Tigers' lone touchdown.

They were given the assignment when the Bears' official thinker, George Halas, was summoned to the Navy.

FREDERICK D. TYNER Kector of St. Luke's Church, Minneapolis. In spite of the war it has been quite a summer for baseball, tennis golf and fishing. Bowling is off to a good start; hunters are having a good time with the ducks; football will soon be in full swing and basketball will have its innings later on.

If-it -would help the Allied cause to a speedier victory and bring our men home that much sooner, every regular American at home would give up his recreation tomorrow. But would it? Even the men at the front indicate in their letters that it is best for the people at home to carry on as far as possible a normal way. But they are very definite about something else; faced with the stark reality of actual warfare, something of which we people at home cannot have the slighest conception, they are betting their lives on the God of justice and liberty and -are not ashamed to say so. Here's something that hits a man right where he lives: a young soldier went through that terrific North Africa campaign; he wrote a letter simply stating that fact and said nothing about the battles in which he fought, but he enclosed three postal orders to help the work of the church at home! And here in effect is the gist of thousand of other letters: "It is great to know that we have a star on that service flag in the church and it helps a lot to know that you remember us at the service every Sunday morning. We certainly need your prayers." What's YOUR score?
