CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Ohio States
unbeaten and united football team
is casting longing, hopeful eyes at a
possible postseason Rose Bowl game,
but some of the Big Ten Conference
faculty ofiicials have frowned on the
idea-and there's a conference rule
opposing such contests.
The Buckeyes, receptive to a
tentative bid to the Coast classic,
are backing plan to have the con-
ference change its rule banning
postseason games, says Athletic Di-
rector L. w. st. John.
A majority of the Faculty Athletic
Committee is necessary to lift the
ban imposed several years ago and
pave the way for Ohio to accept a
formal bid. Opinions expressed by
several ofiicials yesterday indicated
the rule will not be rescinded
Sentiment out California way wa.
all in favor Of the ban lifting.

a Rose Bowl game was the 1921

Redskins Rely on Old
Tricks in Key Tilt
Against Eagles
BY LEWIS r. ATCHIsON.

Wed like to report that the Red.
skins are brewing something new.
extensively, for the Philadelphia
game Sunday at Grifith Stadium,
but can't. This may be the payon
match of the Eastern division title
chase and the Tribe intends to rely
on the same strategy that has car
ried 1t through six games without
defeat.
Instead Of something new, we
would like to make the stun we have
work the way 1t should" Coach bud
De Groot said today. I'VE have
enough offensive power when 1t
clicks to cope with Philadelphia, but
we've been missing on key plays
that mean the difference between
continuing q drive or handing the
ball over to the other team. Maybe
Sunday will be our day"
Worries Over Bauxh.
De Groot genuinely is worried
about Sammy Baughs work. 1t is
glaringly apparent that his enforced
idleness between games isn't helping
any, and against Brooklyn last SUM-
day he looked downright rusty on
passes. Sam is entitled to the one
bad kick he booted, but there are
some who fear 1t may be an evil
omen. Baugh simply doesn't do
that when he's on the beam. 1t is
obvious that the one or two prac-
tice sessions he has before each
game aren't enough to keep him on
edge, but club of1icials frankly are
puzzled about what to do.
Filchock, 1t develops, played a
couple OF games with an ailing arm
without letting anybody know about
1t. 1t didn't come. out until just
before the Brooklyn game and then
he was knocked out on the first
play. so De Groot couldn't tell
whether Franks arm was right.
Filchock says the arm is okay, but
he is using 1t sparingly in practice.
Bank on Filchock's Passing.
Sundays offense will be woven
around Filchock's passing, but it
will have more support from the
running backs. Speedy Frank Seno
seems to have come into his own,
and Bob Seymour has been sizzling
all season. Wilbur Moore. while not
attracting as much attention as
usual, has performed his chores con-
sistently and always is a threat.
Andy Farkas hasn't had enough
work to really test him. From what
we've seen they've given him the
ball once through the line, once
around the end, once on . pass
and then benched him.
There isn't anything wrong with
that delegation, or with the strategy
it Is using. The idea Is to get plays
and players synchronized, and it had
better be Sunday.

Football is a great provider of un-
usual angles and below are a few
xleaned from devouring the records
of the Nations elevens in assuming
the bold task of ranking them for
the overseas edition of The Star:
Connecticut u, which has annexed
seven of eight games and scored 152
points to Is for its rivals in a COM
plete campaign, was robbed OF a
clean slate by one touchdown as
Bates College won 60 in the second
clash of the schedule.
Camp Peary had similar luck in
winning three of the four games it
has played. High-ranking Balm
bridge Navy whipped the Williams
burg, Va, outfit. TO, couple Of
weeks ago, but the Sailors easily
took their other tits with SO points
against zero. Peary gets a chance
Tor revenge, being listed to invade
cambridge on November Is. Efforts,
though, are being made to have the
game transferred to the Baltimore
Stadium as a War Bond benefit. It
doubtless would pack the big bowl.
Next Sunday Peary plays North
Carolina Preflight and will have to
look to it's laurels.
Fort Pierce Fla) Amphibs and
Camp Campbell of Kentucky prob
ably come closer than any other
elevens in the country to having
perfect records other than power
house Randolph Field. Fort Pierce
has registered 275 points against

has piled up POI against lone

Both have met better than average
opposition. Randolph Field, sweep
ing seven games, has allowed only 6
points, while amassing 318.
