STEGENT RETURNS

tailback Larry Stegent returned to action for the first
time in almost a year. The 6-1, 198-pound speedster will be
starting this week against Army’s Black Knights.
Buckeyes Favored
By Fourteen
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Ohio State sends its point-a-
minute wreckers against Wash
ington this week, favored by two
touchdowns to defend its position
as the country’s No. 1 college
football team.
National champions and Rose
Bowl champions last season, the
Buckeyes cemented their place at
the top of The Associated Press
poll by smothering Texas Chris
tian in its opener last Saturday
620.
Some observers called it one
of the most powerful college ma
chines of the era.
Woody Hayes, the Buckeyes’
reluctant master commented:
“We have to get better every
time we play.”
Most of the top teams in the
weekly poll face formidable riv
als with three of the games
matching members of the Top
Twenty. Eighth-ranked Purdue,
winner over Notre Dame last
week, plays a strong Stanford
team at home in a game some
predict could be a preview of the
1970 Rose Bowl. Stanford is
ranked 17th.
Missouri, No. 9, invades Mich
igan, No. 13, with the latter fa
vored by a point while Alabama,
No. 15, and Mississippi, No. 20,
tangle at Birmingham in a match
of Southeastern Conference
powers.
The Alabama-Mississippi bat
tle will be Saturday’s national
television morsel, starting at 9:30
p.m. EDT. ABC televises.
Ohio State received 35 of the
40 first place votes cast by a
sports writing and broadcasting
panel of 40 and collected 784 to
tal points.
Penn State, which trounced
Colorado 27-3, is second, followed
by Arkansas, 55-0 winner over
Tulsa; Texas, which ran over
Texas Tech 49-7, and Southern
California, which crushed North
western 48-6.
Penn State is at Kansas State
Saturday and Arkansas at Texas
Christian, Texas is host to Navy
and Southern California travels
to Oregon State.
Completing the Top Ten in the
poll are Oklahoma, Georgia, Pur
due, Missouri and Tennessee.
