Ohio State
Meets Illini
In Top Battle
By JACK CLARY
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Big Ten holds the na
tion's college football spotlight
today when six of its seven
unbeaten teams are paired
against each other.
In addition, two other pairs of
unbeatens, Air Force-Missouri,
and Arkansas-Baylor, lock horns
in a day that is going to settle
the usual topsy-turvy picture
prevalent so early in the season.
The top battle is between the
learns ranked 4 and 5 in the
current Associated Press poll,
Illinois and Ohio Slate, which
meet in Champaign, 111.
The Illini, ranked fourth, have
beaten Indiana, in a game that
won't count in the Big Ten stand
ings, and West Virginia. The fifth
ranked Bucks have not yielded a
point in beating Southern Metho
dist and Southern California.
In another conference battle al
most equally attractive, third
rated lowa (2-0) plays Michigan
State, which has tied Pitt and de
feated Michigan.
Purdue, ranked seventh, plays
Wisconsin. Minnesota, the oth
er unbeaten Big Ten eleven,
meets Northwestern.
Top-ranked Syracuse gets a
(respite against two-time loser
'Holy Cross.
Air Force and Missouri both
.have won three games while Ar
kansas, ranked ninth with a 3-0
mark, tries to get a bigger jump
in the Southwest Conference race
,against Baylor (2-0).
Three more of the top ten are
busy in the South. Second
ranked Mississippi has a South
eastern Conference date against
Vanderbilt while sixth-ranked
Navy plays Southern Metho
dist in the Oyster Bowl at Nor
folk, Va. Clemson, ranked
eighth, plays Virginia, which
has the nation's longest major
college losing streak, 28.
Kansas (No. 10) meets potent
lowa State in a key Big Eight
battle.
Stanford's passing whiz, Dick
Norman, tries to stave off Wash
ington's Huskies in the television
game of the day beginning at
3:45 p.m. (EST) ABC-TV. Seven
hours before this, Miami, Fla. and
Pitt meet in Pittsburgh (9 n.m.
EST) so as not to conflict with
the World Series in New York.
