The Washington times., 1922-10-10


Ohio State will use strong run
ming attack. combined with an
aerial offense, which is going to be
mighty hard to stop. In fact, the
Buckeye coach knows he is going 10
be weak defenslvely in some posi-.
tiOns and he is trying. 10 overcome
this handicap by perfecting an Of.
frnse which will gain against most
any defensive combination.
An analysis of tn" squad shows
there are men trying for the team
who can run. kick or pass and
others who can execute the OPTIONAL
pass perfectly. In addition, the
team will he fortified with two RI.
liable punters in Hoge Workman
and Wilmer Isabel The former is
a dandy triple threat artist and Il
fairy reliable drop kicker. In the
field goal department Capt. Lloyd
Pixley is an accurate place kicker.
HOge Workman Is forward
passer Of known ability. He can
shoot the ball fast and accurately
on short or long passes and has
enough football sense to know
when to pass and when TO run.
He also will be used to execute
the Onside kick wifh~Isabel, one
Of the Onside players expected to
recover the attempts.
Football has taken wonderful
hold on, not only the people Of this
town, but the State as well. Even
Mayor Thomas was out to the prac-
ticc yesterday. When darkness hid
the players the white ball and arc
lights were brought into use.
Everybody here is talking about
the Michigan game on October 21,
feature of the dedicatory exercises Of
the new stadium. which is just about
completed. 1t is one Of the most ex-
pensive of its kind. is horseshoe in
plan and seats $4,000.
The structure is the dream Of Prof.
Thomas +. French, who is generally
referred to here as the daddy of the
stadium. 1t is a great compliment
to the man who has done so much
for Ohio athletics. Every seat will
be sold for the Michigan game, home
coming for Buckeyes.
During the time Ohio State has
been a member Of the Western Con.
ference il has won three football
1915, 1917 and 1920, and the Buckeyes
were runners up in 1919 and 1921.
This undoubtedly is a better average
than any other Big Ten eleven has
experienced in the last decade.
Lloyd Pixley Of Columbus, who
should be one Of the leading guards
I'm the Middle West this year, is
captain and will be seen at his old
position at left guard. The Buck.
eye leader Is an aggressive player
who knows the many angles Of
line play.
Il. J. Cutler is looming as the
strongest candidate for right guard.
NJ. d. Hollingsworth and n. II. Don
lop are the most promising Of a no It
Of other guard candidates.
Kenneth Pauley appears to be a
fixture at center. He passes aC.
curately and looked good on defense
in today's scrimmaEe. Alex Klein
and +. J. Kaplow are the other pos
siblities. All three centers are
heavy and should be able to take care
of any PLAYS sent at II, provid ng
they are not pulled out of position
on feints or split plays.
Frank Young, who played center
st year, has been shifted to tackle
He looked good in the position to-
day. Boni Petcoff will meet likely
be the other tackle. Both are heavy
and fast chargers. II. ID. Steele, +.
E. Addison and Harold Wasson are
other possibilities.
Harold Schweinsberger and Frank
Honaker look like the best bets for
ends. Both can learn a little more
about blocking and boxing tackles,
but they are big enough to smash
interference and should be impor-
tant cogs in the forward pass attack
Anthony Floretti, Tomun Elgin, G.
9 KYLE and John b. Wilson are the
best of the other candidates.
Now that Noel Workman has
been declared ineligible, Jackie
