IOWA CITY. Iowa, Nov. 18.-
Iowa's amazing iron men, the fairy
tale lads of 1899 football, came
roaring back with two last-quarter
touchdowns in an almost unbeliev-
able finish to stun Minnesota S
Golden Gophers, 13 to 9, before So
600 cheering Homecoming fans here
today.
The indomitable iron men, seven
of whom went the route, as Coach
Eddie Anderson used only II play
ers in another sensational gridiron
conquest, were battered and beaten
for three quarters.
Minnesota's crushing power had
sent typical bruising Gopher team
into a 9-to-0 lead at the end OF
the third period. It seemed almost
certain that the astonishing exploits
of the iron men. who went into the
battle with victories over three
other Big Ten teams and Notre
Dame, would be ended by the
Gophers.
Kinnick Climbs Into Saddle.
But doughty Nile Kinnick, who
completed his sixth game without
relief, took command early in the
fourth period. He hurled three for
ward passes to carry the Hawks 80
yards to touchdown that shocked
the confident Gophers and put Iowa
within striking distance of a VIC
tory that two minutes previously
hadn't seemed possible.
The touchdown pass was q beau
tiful aerial shot from the Iowa ace
to Capt. Erwin Prasse, who caught
the ball on the 8-yard line and raced
across the goal line unmolested.
Kinnick calmly drop-kicked the
extra point and the iron men were
only two points behind.

struck. Starting from their 21-yard

Kinnick, although rushed by hard

into. the end zone, where bound
