So Coach Sam Williman's job thia year is to bring Ohio state to its peak for it's two most important games against Michigan and North western on the last two Saturdays in October. Those two games will make or break Ohio state thik sea-: son.
 ohio States prospects may bs summed up as follows:
 1. A veteran line, averaging 205 pounds from tackle to tackle, ana 200 pounds from end to end, which doesn't have to concede anything to any group of forwards in the conference.
 2. A doubtful backfieid, which may be surprisingly good, or very bad. N
 One Man Job
 Much of Ohio States success will depend on Carl Cramer, Big Tens greatest quarterback in 1881, who was out of action most of last year with an injured ankle and knee. Cramer single handed beat Michi- gan two years ago, and playing up to his form in 1881, could convert Ohio state into a strong contender for the Big Ten title.
 Willaman regards his line as the best he has ever coached. The stars are Sidney Gilman, one of the Big Tens best ends last year, and Nike Vuchinlch, a wizard at backing up the line, who has been shifted from fullback to center. Y Big Boys
 The other line players are Max Padlow at end. Fred Conrad, an. other 6-foot, 4-lnch, 216-pound tackle. and Regis Monahan, 210. pounder shifted from tackle to guard.
