Ohio State 17 California 14
Pappy Waldorf brings in another undefeated California team (10-0), but Wes Fesler's (6-1-2) Ohio State Buckeyes win (17-14) with slightly more than two minutes left to play on a 17-yard field goal by James Hague. The victory chance is set up when Cal's Bob Celeri is forced to punt a short distance on the run with his left foot because of a bad pass from center. Fred (Curly) Morrison is Ohio State's big running star with 113 yards on 25 carries, followed by Jerry Krall with 80 yards in 28 tries. Bill Trautwein is a standout at tackle for the Buckeyes. California gets big contributions from Jim Monachino, Frank Brunk, Pete Schabarum.
