Ohio U gridders in home debut on Saturday
Ohio University football opens its 1938 home schedule in Ohio Stadium Saturday against Wayne University of Detroit after a 3 1 record on foreign fields. Coach Don Peden aims to rest regulars late and field strong reserves as injuries bite the line and backfield. Wayne features George Gembis a two way star quarterback and standout punter, with a pass oriented attack built around him. The Bobcats plan to counter with Monk Montgomery and Len Janiak in the backfield and a reshuffled line to cope with expected aerials and limited depth.
