OHIO STATE COACH
 EXTRACTS PROTEST
Dr. WilCc Now Says Illinois Forward Pass Resulting In Touchdown
 Was 4 Legal One.

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 22-After again seeing moving pictures of Sat urday's football victory of Illinois over Ohio State, Coach J. w. Wilce of Ohio State announced that, in his opinion, the disputed forward pass which resulted in the lone Illinois touchdown was perfectly legitimate and had not hit the ground as Dr. Niee had declared when he first saw the pictures in a local theatre last evening.
 Coach Wice declared that a very careful and scientific examination of the motion pictures showed that the ball hit Captain Myers of Ohio State, but did not touch the ground before Waquist caught it and ran several yards to the goal line.
 Coach Wilce and other Ohio State athletic officials declared that the motion pictures gave an optical ilu sion of the ball striking the ground twice. This, it was explained, was caused by the ball turning rapidly in the air.
 The Ohio State coach and other university officials attended a special run of the pictures at none today The pictures were run ultra-sloW for the first time, and were repeated time and again until the Ohio State mentor was convinced that the win ming Illinois play was perfectly leg itimate.
 Later Wice said he would have 'still' pictures of the play made by the university official photographer.

NUTMEGS- HARTFORD
Record Crowd Expected to Witness Big Gridiron Battle at Clarkin Field on Thanksgi, ing Afternoon.

The arranging of the games with the All-HartfOrd for Manufacturing afternoon and the Steam Rollers at Providence, R. l. next Sunday, has cut out for the Nutmegs the most strenu- ous week in the 1921 schedule. Can the locals come through in such hard games is the question that IS heard frequently by the fans. It is sure to b eacid test week for the gray jorseyed boys.
 The game with the Hartford team on the holiday bids fair to attract a record crowd. Both elevens have thou sands of followers who can see noth- ing but success. A victory for either team places them in the position to battle with the Bridgeport team for the undisputed championship claim of the state. Had the weather permit ted the Bridgeport Hartford game last Sunday, either Of these two teams would in all probability be out Of the running. As it appears now, the win ner of the holiday must battle once more this season to lay full claim to the title.

 The Nutmegs will assemble al l}entz's hall tonight for practice. Ii is hoped to have George C. Cassidy and Lawyer D. l.. Dunn on hand tc instruct the boys in new plays. The management have entered into an agreement with Jim Clarkin, for an insurance against the game being postponed on account of bad weather. Only a heavy downpour will prevent the contest.
