Parkin again took the ball and
slipped through the left side of the
Yale line for three yards. Here Locke
fumbled, but recovered the ball.
Farkin shot forward pass to Miller
and the ball was on the Blues 23
yard line. On the next play Parkin
got three yards through Diller. You
will find out that Parkin's name oc-
ours many times in this narrative,
Locke got a yard and the period ended
with the ball on Yale's 19 yard line
and the wearers of the Blue exhortins
their team to hold.
Iowa Headed for Victory.
The elevens changed goals. but points
of the compass seemed to make little
difference to the Cornhuskers They were
were headed for victory.
For once Parkin failed 20 gain, but
Gordon Locke ripped his way through
center for four yards. LoclIe's next
plunge resulted in a first down on Yale's
Q yard mark The Blue insisted that
the distance be measured. and II was
found to be correct In two attempts
, ParlIin made seven yards. When Yale
stopped Locke in his tracks and Iowa
was penalized five yards for offside
play. matters looked more hopeful from
an Eastern standpoint. But Parkin was
only stirred to fresh effort Aided by
really fine interference. he swung around

/ Eddy threw the speeding Westerner

hold him, and Parkin rolled across the

tempted dropkick for the extra point.

win

As for the game itself It is hard 10
