For Michigan, the defeat was the third in four starts and the second without a the Big Ten. But the Wolverines have no reason to be ashamed of their loss to a team like Northwestern, whose previous victims included mighty Oklahoma, Iowa's defending conference champions, and resurgent Minnesota. Lack of speed was the primary cause of Michigan's downfall. It pushed across the first touchdown on a. fortunate bounce of the ball, holding the Wildcats on even scoring terms until the last 23 seconds of the first half and threatened until the final few minutes of an exciting contest.

Time after time, the Wildcats managed to squirm away from Michigan players who were just too slow to catch them. Sloppy tackling also hurt the Wolverines in some crtical spots.

MATTE DID a Houdinl act for the touchodwn.

He faked a handoff beauti fully while rolling out to his right, cut inside right end and crossed back to the center ot the field. The Purdue secondary had moved in to stop a plunge and Matte easily outran them for a 32-yard play. Jim Tiller, 151-pound Purdue scatback and one of 15 Ohioans on the Boilermaker squad, gave OSU a safety with 13 seconds left in the half. He took a punt on his 16 and advanced to the rear he kept moving back looking for running room until he was in the end zone under 578 pounds of Mike Ingram, Jim Herb- streit and Chuck Bryant. PURDUE MOVED with authority in the second half after being outgained, 187-53, on the ground in the first half.

Allen, playing nearly the entire game, took Purdue to the 22 before losing the ball on downs and to the 12 before handing the ball over again on downs. Allen passed well but his receiver couldn't hang onto the ball. Ohio State, as in the championship years, disdained the airways and passed only three times. Purdue had no choice but to pass. The Boilermakers tried 27 and completed only eight for 81 yards.

Three were intercepted in cluding the final one which Ingram, a standout all day, picked off to set up Kilgore's 35-yard field goal with 18 sec onds left the game. The Bucks ground game worked for the first time this fall, grinding out 266 yards oses its 12 in the first quarter with the punt going to the OSU 28. Ohio was offside and acceptance of the penalty would have given Purdue a first down. But the Boilermakers declined and OSU started a 53-yard march that culminated in Dave Kilgore's first field goal, an angled 36-yarder. White was the only first-stringer in the line up when OSU crisply from its own 20 to a touchdown in 12 plays midway in the second period.

Turn to Page Column 4 BY JACK BERRY Free Press Staff Writer COLUMBUS Purdue found out Saturday that roses have thorns. Ohio State, a veteran of the Rose Bowl and Big Ten champion three of the last five years, turned the tables on the previously unbeaten Boilermakers before 83, 391 happy homecoming fans to take a 15-0 victory. Purdue, choice of most experts to win. its first outright Big Ten title since 1929 and make its initial trip to the Rose Bowl, was favored by one touchdown, but the teams played opposite roles. THE BUCKEYES, after gaining only 326 yards rushing in their first three games, looked like the crunching team of old.

Burly Bob White, the big 211-pound fullback, repeatedly smashed through Purdue's supposedly superior line for 111 yards. Jerry Fields, a junior quarterback, and his replacement, Tom Matte, also a 200-pound-er, time and again cut the Boilermaker ends on rollouts. Ohio, whitewashed the last two weeks, protected its record of never losing three in a row under Woody Hayes. Purdue was expected to cruise past Ohio despite the loss of fullback Bob Jams and Quarterback Ross Fichtner in the last 10 days. THERE WAS a scare Friday when Bernie Allen, who flipped three touchdown passes last week, turned his ankle in a workout.

Allen would be out for two weeks it was said. But there he was at kickoff time, all ready to go and a tribute to some miracle pill. Boilermaker coach Jack Mollenkopf said afterward that Allen played "on a leg and a half," but added that "we never got out of the hole." Ohio kept Purdue in the hole with some booming punts and the Boilermakers' own indecision. It happened quickly. Fields punted to the Boilermaker one-yard line after OSU stalled in its first series.

Instead of downing the ball father upfield or trying to run it back, Purdue chose to let it roll, apparently expecting it to go into the end zone. FROXI THEN ON, Purdue could do nothing, the Boilermakers got past the 50 only twice in the first half and then only to the Buckeye 43 and 40. Meanwhile, Purdue helped OSU to five points on a field goal and safety. Purdue quick-kicked on a third down from College BIG TEN Indiana 23, Nebraska 7. Illinois 14, Minnesota 8.
