Buckeyes Eye Strong Season After Northwestern Clash
TEV RENICK, former Ohio sports editor turned OSU publicity chief, predicts a successful Scarlet and Gray season after the October 14 Northwestern game. Northwestern’s veteran squad challenges with Bill DeCorrevont ranked low among left halfback candidates, while three lettermen plus a sophomore compete for the spot. For the first time in three years Waldorf has a balanced lineup with both line and backfield strength, though Northwestern’s hype and chatter fuel talk of a mythical national title.
