| i he iowa 1OOcDdll LedIuS gave lhC
+, dopesters a severe headache Satur-
day, but did not have an otherwise
/ bad effect upon the feelings Of the
| college students of the state. The
State University annihilated Purdue,
Drake continued its history Of defeat
| ing Washington University and Ames
held the Missouri team to a scoreless
tie. Grianell trampled over Beloit
| as expected while Dubuque tied the
heavy and experienced Creighton
team. Taken all in all it was the
| best Saturday for Iowa football since
the time, almost twenty years ago
when the State University, Drake and
Grinnell were all strong, and taking
the measure of out of state teams
with regularity.
The victory of the State Univers-
| ity will be received with citation by
the well wishers of Howard Jones.
| The strength of the Hawkeye backs
| and ends was shown from the first
OF the season when Jones made his
first Encouragement of material but
none of the critics of the state be-
lieved that line could be builded
from tackle to tackle who could with
stand the attack Of a man like Van
Aakan Of Purdue. The fact this line
gave before Grinnell also was taken
| to indicate it would not stand the
gaff However the fact remains that
it did. and Jones can turn his atten-
ton to polishing his offense as we'll
as teaching the minute details OF line
play. He is not likely to spend much
time worrying concerning the Min
nesota game as the strength of the
latter team leaves little concern as
to its ultimate result.
Drake Surprises Rioters.
The Drake team met it's first OPP
ponent of the year with the matters
Of period in training even and the re.
suit was a somewhat onesided victory
for the Iowa aggregation. Only per-
sistent penalizing kept the score
down to the thirteen points while the
Drake defense was so good that
Washington did not threaten the
Drake goal at any time. The team as
it met Washington was a rearranged
aggregation and the showing Of some
of the new men was such it probably
will be permanent. Ames was outplay-
ed for the largest part OF the time
they were facing the Missouri team
but staged rally in the last minutes
which almost gave them the game.
The result was unsatisfactory from
the Ames standpoint. many OF the
Ames rooters declaring they wished
decisive outcome, even If against
them.
Gig Game Saturday.
Interest this week centers in the
meeting Of Grinnell and Coe at Cedar
Rapids. The losing team will be elm
mated from the Iowa conference race
,. while Grinnell looked so we'll against
I tween the schools lends much to the
contest. Coe has not yet been tested
, while rinnell looked so well against
the State University that most of the
critics pick them as on a par with the
Hawkeye team. Drake travels to Chi
cago where they meet the Northwest
ern. team which defeated Chicago
Saturday. Drake will be outclassed in
the back field in this encounter and
| possibly in kicking but the line battle
should be about even. The Northwest
ern line is by far the most exper
fenced. Iowa also plays an out OF
state game, meeting Minnesota in the
first test the Mortimer have had on
confercr :e football.
