Oh, I was tired whin 1 came home from a haul day at practice, or after a stiff game. Hut a good meal, n good shower, and my mind was clearer. Study ing was easier and I got more out of what I studied. "The hard knocks you get In the game are more than compen sated for in the satisfaction of Winning or even of putting up u hard losing battle." "Unle" No lJct. I'esler admitted hu hadn't thought a great ileal about the commercial cmphaals placed on the game. So far as he knew, that phane of the Issue -never got as far as the lut-ker rooms or the practice field. "We never thought about wheth er winning or losing won hi bring In more or less money at the gate." he said. "That wasn't what we were there for. We were playing for Ohio Stale to win If we could, but If we lost, wn knew It wasn't because we didn't try maybe we didn't gel the breaks maybe tho other team did; any way we did our best."
