 New Haven, Conn, October It. Iowa's mighty football eleven. cham pion of the Western Conference. gave Yale, a member of the Big Three"o of the east, it's first defeat by con ference eleven today and it was a decisive victory. The score was 6 to c, representing touchdown from q march half the length of the field, which started late in the first period and ended at Yale last white line soon after the second period began. But 1owa's superio rity was much greater than the mere final score shows.
 Yale threatened to tie the score, a concerted advance toward Iowa s goal of 70 yards ending a few sec onds before the last whistle blew with forward pass over the goal line which grounded.
 30,G00 Saw Game
 Efforts of Coach Tad's pupils to repeat football history thrilled some 3e,000 spectators on an ideal football day--thrilled them no less titan they had been amazed at the power Ct lowas offense shown in the first half; thrilled them even as much as they had been surprised in the first half by Iowa's failure to score more points. Fumbles were the principal reason. Penalties contributed.
 Four Scoring Chances
 Iowa had four scoring opportuni- ties; that is. it had the ball within 35 yards of Yale's goal One was realized Two failures to make the best of excellent strategical position were due to fumbles. One failure was due to stiffening of Yale's de- fense. Three of the scoring oppor- tunities were due to superior offense and one to Yale tumble,
 Yale also had four opportunities, Two of them were due to loose han ding of the ball by Iowa. one to partially blocked Iowa punt and one to the brilliant end game of the lash of power. Inability to throw the forward pass was the chief fac tor In Yale's failure to make the ltest of it's chances. Yale did not com plete one forward pass, while Iowa had four successful ones for total gain of 5s yards.
 Statistics show Iowa was superior in all departments of the game ex- cept In running back kicks, at which NiealinEer, substitute Yale quarter back, because of injuries to OHearn, outshone everybody.
 Wight and Cochran. a substitute halfback, figured largely in Yale's end game advance, but the heart or the crowd warmed to Captain Gordon Locke and Parkin of Iowa. because of the formers smashing line plunges and the latter's end runs. These runs often were individual accomplish ments. weasel-like wriggling after the interference had met difficulties yn al pe thA play was sb eiEhtyard end run by Parkin.

In eight plays Iowa was at Yale's 20 yard line Nitu q IF bt uoWH. One or the playS was 1s yard end dash by Parkin, and two were forward passes for gains of eight and ten yards.
 The score came in eight plays after the second period opened notwith- standing five yard off-side penalty, Parkin played the stellar role in the last dash. circling Yale's left wing with excellent interference and squirminE over the goal line as he was tackled. Shuttleworth failed in the try for goal.
 Yale's greatest gains came from a deployed formation of ends and backs to the right.
