Minneapolis, Oct 2S.-The State
University of Iowa football team went
down to defeat here today before the
powerful attack of the University Of
Minnesota eleven by the decisive
score of G7 to 0. At no time did the
visiting players endanger the Mime
sofa goal line.
With varied rushing offensive. in
which deceptive formations, spectac-
ular forward passes, and smashing
line drives, were intermingled, Min
nesota marched the ball steadily for
ward from start to finish.
Skill displayed by the Gophers in
handling forward passes, which were
shot with speed and accuracy from
Wyman to Baston, time and again for
long gains, was by far the outsteand-
ing feature of the game. "Galloping
Joe" Sparfka raced through gaps in
the Hawkeye line for consistent gains.
Minnesota was penalized number of
times for offside and fol holding.
Right halfback Davis was the star
of the Iowa team.
North Dakota Wins 20 to O.

play, the University of North Dakota

day, 20 to 0.
In the first two periods, the South
Dakota team played line plunging
game with some success, but when
ever they threatened the defense, the
North Dakota team stiffened. In the
last two periods. the misplays of the
visitors resulted in North DakOta's
scores. Two fumbles and poor kick
by the visitors were turned into
touch downs.

Lansing, Mich, Oct. 2S.-Effective
use of the forward pass when close to
the visitors goal, enabled Michigan

Dakota Aggies here today, 80 to O.
The husky team from North Dakota
tried hard, but straight football could
accomplish little against NJ. A. Cs
veteran line. Jacks and Turner
were the Michigan Aggies college
stars. North Dakota made its best iml
preston during the first few minutes
of play. A smashing attack carried
the ball to the NJ. A. Cs 4O-yard line.

ball hit the cross bars and bounced
back into the playing field.

Madison, Wis, Oct. 2S.-By crush
ing the Stagg team from Chicago un:
der the score of 80 to 7, Wisconsin

tender with Minnesota for the 1916
