Ewnlil on uin Stielun was mastet of
tli' fiit Ire situation lit' had built up
u defense for the spread formation
that wiih invulnerable In addition he
had built up a scoring machine that
wjih not to be denied and that simply
swept the lowaim off their feet
It was a great wuni1, magnificently
played, and stamped the Cornhuskers
as one of the best football machines
In the entire country. There was no
question as to which team belonged
the honors for the Nebraskans out
played the Hawkoyes in every depart
ment of the game. The Cornhuskers
played an Invincible brand of football
and won because of undisputed merit
Nebraska's Stars.
The stars for Nebraska fairly out
shone themselves in Saturday's game.
Halligan, Captain Purdy, Rutherford
and Mast in time and again brought the
enormous rowd to its feet with the
daring slashing game that they played.
Captain Purdy wound up his football
career in the University of Nebraska
with a whole bon fire of glory. In the
last quarter he scored the last touch
down of the game which was also the
last touchdown of the season and his
last touchdown. It was a fitting close
to a brilliant football career.
Rutherford played a slashing, dash
ing game and was almost always ablo
to make a large gain on off tackle
smashes Halligan made the occasion
of his t w. lit v first birthda and held
a birtlidas party all his own by tearing
through th- Iowa line at will, both on
the defense and when lugging the ball
on tackle niound Mastln plaed the
greatest game at end that lias been
seen this year in the valley On the
oftense he opened great holes tor Ual

terroi ol the spread formation Only
twice did the Hawkeyes try to circle
his end .mil each time were thrown

of the Iowa ceiilei in the spread forma

Nebraska's Wonderful Stand.
Hut once In the whole game did
Iowa threaten Nebraska's goal line.
That was in the third quarter After
the ten minute rest the Hawkeys came,
back strong and in a few minutes of
play had the ball on the one yard line
Thrice the Iowa backs hurled them
sehes against the invincible Cornhusk
eis but the line held like a stone wall
The Hawkeys smashed themselves to
within six inches of the line and then
lost the ball on downs The desperate
stand of the Cornhuskers was wouder
tul It was magnificent It was the
greatest defense ever put up by a
western team. There the tide of battle
turned and the Iowans were whipped
and knew it. Never again did they
have the slighest chance of scoring
Nebraska's Scoring.
The Cornhuskers rushed the Hawk
eyes off their feet from the very out
set. A clever, short kickoff gave Ne
braska the ball and by straight foot
ball, Rutherford, Hulligan and Purdy
rushed the ball down to the Iowa two
yard line from where Rutherford car
ried it over.
The second touchdown was made by
Captain Purdy In the last quarter when
after several long slashing gains by
Rutherford and Purdy put the ball in
striking distance. Purdy by a smash
through the line carried the ball over,
shaking off tackier after tackier. Here
occurred tbe only regretable part of
an otherwise clean game. When Purdy
fell across the Iowa line for the second
touchdown Cross ran up and viciously
jumped on Purdy 's head. Here Abbott
took a hand in the proceedings and in
righteous anger at Gross' despisable act
lilt him Abbott was immediately sent
to the g m as should also hae Cross
but he was allowed to play beau-e
the referee had not seen his act
The Statistics.

facts of Nebraska's superiority. The
Cornhuskers gained L7," 1-2 yaids from

power than the Iowans. With her trick

playing superb straight football. The
Iowa eleven was undoubtedly the
strongest and speediest that has ever
represented that school and the tri
umph of the Cornhuskers over such a
worthy foe was a fitting and dazzling
