The Columbus Bucks, who currently reside in first place in the Lakes Division, have beaten and tied the All-Stars for the only blemishes on an otherwise perfect season. Quarterback Charley Wedemeyer leads the group of former Spartans as he is the All-Stars starting quarterback, and is third in the league in passing. He has completed 46 of 93 passes for 671 yards and seven touchdowns. Wedemeyer is also the fourth leading ground gainer on the squad. Halfback Ken Hines didn't play much in the first four games, but against the Michigana Hawks last Saturday night, he gained 60 yards as a starter. He has also scored five touchdowns this year. Starting halfback Kermit Smith had his finest game against Columbus this year, gaining close to 60 yards. Ernie Pasteur, who starts at fullback, was injured for the first three games, but he played "real well" against Columbus, according to Lansing Public Relations Director Dave Coehlo, scoring a touchdown and also gaining 90 yards in 12 attempts. Joe Gavel goes both ways. He started the season at defensive halfback, but has recently seen more playing time as wide receiver. He started against both Pontiac and Wyoming, and scored three touchdowns against them. On the defensive side, defensive back Art Berry has six interceptions from his starting position Lou Bobich is also a starting defensive halfback and safety.
