New-York tribune., 1922-10-22

MlcnlSan came mere To-Day OSnC oi
victory. 1t had fast, aggressive and
exceptionally smart football eleven, one
of the best Yost has ever turned out
Michigan was much lighter than its
host and adversary, but it made up for
that lack with speed, resourcefulness
and alertness. Michigan to-day was
one of those teams that Is constantly
on its collective toes.
1t seized every opportunity Ohio pre-
| sented, meanwhile holding the heavy
Scarlet jerseyed warriors at bay with
! stanch defense that refused to break
OF 20 bulge during any part of the
contest.
Michigan's victory, while extremely
gratifying to it's 10000 supporters in
the stand, was quite costly. In its
superhuman efforts to obtain victory
Michigan lost one of it's great backs
and a stalwart lineman. Both Roby,
who sustained fractured leg, and
Vendervoort, who broke his arm, will
be out for the remainder Of the sea-
| son.
Besides Roby, Michigan had three
men who were virtually team in them
selves.
Captain Goebel, the inspiring au-
burn-haired leader Of the Wolver-
ines Kirk, the former Notre Dame
star, and Kipke, the slenderly-built,
feet-footed halfback, as trio, were all
over the entire new Ohio field, tackling
furiously and effectively, urging their
mates on with exhortations, beseeching
and examples of sterling play. They
had splendid assistance, to be sure,
from the eight others, but this trio
stood out like the Statue Of Liberty in
New York Harbor.
Captain Goebel was more than g
! leader to-day and an inspiration to his
men. He was a knockout Of defense
and a stick of dynamite on the offense.
We have never seen any better end
play than he put on for the edification
| Of this crowd of $4,000 or more.
This sturdy warrior was laid out
four times, but always returned to his
position and went ripping his way
along as if he had just entered the
! fray. Finally in the fourth quarter,
after his team had piled up a lead of
is points, the Michigan captain, receiv-
ing hard blow on the knee, was
obliged to withdraw from the game.
He received tremendous ovation as
he was carried off the field.
Kipke, who weighs only little more
than $50 pounds, and Kirk took up the
| task of leading the team to sweet VIC
tory. Uteritz, the Michigan quarter
back, another lightweight, deserves
commendation also for the manner in
which he ran his team.
J Ohio State was in remarkable con-
/ dition and were constantly fighting,
but it's line was sluggish and unable
to check the lighter Michigan forwards

made the mistake Of taking long
/ chances in a desperate attempt TO get
on even footing with the visitors.
4 Throughout the entire melee Work
i man stood out as a great back. He was
always cool and alert, and when the
game had ended he was rs fresh as
when ne had started, despite has harl
play.
4 Michigan lost no time in taking the
offnsive. The Wolverines leaped out
at the start like a pack of hounds
scenting the trail. Twice they began
marching toward the Ohio goal line,
but on both occasions the locals held
and forced the visitors to punt. Late
in the first period Michigan got down
to Ohio's 27-yard line. This time Can
tain Goebel dropped back, and with the
wind blowing from behind kicked q
goal from placement.
The Michigan leader didn't stop al
that point, however. Early in the sec
ond quarter, when Ohio State had the
Dali and was endeavoring to push for
ward Goebel broke through and
tackled Workman for a loss Of five
yards. An exchange Of punts followed.
Once more Ohio State started slowi,.
UP the field. Then came confusion in
the signals. A tumble resulted. Goehel
Ike panther ieaping on its prev
sprang across the line and bounced nn
the ball on Ohio's 2o-yard line. -
On the very first play Kipke on !,
reverse and double pass PLAY skirtsd
his own left end for touchdown. The
entire right side of the Ohio line was
