HICAGO, November 8.-Unques-
tionably one Of the strongest
~ teams in the Western Confer
ence today is Ohio State Uni
yersity. One of the greatest disap-
pointments of the season, the Buckeyes
finally have welded their tremendous
power into a smooth working unit and
Saturday they handed Northwestern the
worst beating any Wildcat team has re-
ceived from a Big Ten opponent since
Dick Hanley came to Evanston six years
ago. But that triumph over the team
that gave Michigan a stubborn fight,
tied Purdue, and sullenly permitted
Minnesota only a touchdown will not
compensate for the reverses that came
to Ohio earlier in the season.
Ohio's line Is one Of the most I'M
pressive seen this season. From tackle
to tackle its giants average feet 2
inches in height, 210 pounds In weight
and have speed as well as power and
size Against Northwestern Joe Gailus
and Ted Rosequist were the best guard
and tackle to perform In the Conference
this season. Rosequist, who weighs 2l5
and towers 6 feet AZ inches In his
scarlet ensemble, Is versatile per-
former that every coach seeks. Not
only does he perform all the functions
of a tackle but twice, against North
western. he shifted to end and received
passes that played an important part in
pair of the Buckeye touchdowns. Ohio
coaches relate that Rosequist was the
outstanding player when the Buckeyes
tied Pittsburgh few weeks ago.

MARYLAND is the only team from the
State that now is on the Navy foot bail
schedule This is apart from the fact
that each has won game Of the pres
ent series.
There will be no loaflng during the
practices of the week at Annapolis.
Hard work last week showed itself in
the Columbia game. There were. for
instance, the four successful lateral
passes unleashed by the Navy for a
total gain of 80 yards. This is an al
most entirely new play for the Mid
shipren that mixes will with the for
ward passes and running plays.
IT was notable that the Navy did not
i make use of the fact that Borries
the best pass nabber on the squad
was in its backfield Saturday for use as
receiver in forward-pass plays, although
some of the best work of Nays season
in this line had been done during the
week. Undoubtedly. something has beer
reserved for the Maryland game.
Walkup. kept out of the Columbs
game by injuries, now Is in shape and
with Berries, will be used against Mary
land. The presence of one or the other
will do much to indicate the kind Of at
tack the Navy is to launch as its strong
est weapcn for the time.
Walkup is not only a fast carrier but
the biggest man in the Navy backield
and a splendid blocker His presence
will mean that the chief reliance is to
be put on running attack. Should Bor-
ries start or be put in the game at any
time, Maryland had better watch for a
salvo of passes.
Navy has overcome its weakness IN
covering kicks by sending the tackles
down to help the ends out. Both Brooks
and Kane did some really fine work
along this line against Columbia.
