Coach Harcla Hunt Denies TD In 1951 Season Tie
The 1951 season opener between Southwestern College of Winfield Kansas and Central Missouri State of Warrensburg ended 6-8 after Southwestern coach Harcla Hunt challenged a late touchdown spotted by an out of bounds call. Johnson appeared to score but Hunt urged the ball be moved back, nullifying the potential winner. Ohio State postscript notes include Vic Janowicz field goals lifting them to a 4-3-2 finish with key 3-0 and 16-14 wins over Northwestern and Pittsburgh respectively. The piece also covers coaches and officials in collegiate boxing and Wesleyan-Denison basketball, including disputed baskets and ticket details.
