Prepares for MM
Under the able direction of
Coach Eddie Anderson, the Uni
versity of Iowa football eleven is
preparing for this week's clash
with the University of Nebraska
at lowa city
lioasting one of the strongest
teams in the midwest, the Hawk
eyes are determined to bounce
back into the win column follow
ing last Saturday's 14 to 7 loss to
Michigan. Besides holding the
vaulted Wolverine attack to two
touchdowns, the Iowans have
stacked up two victories with wins
over feeble North Dakota State,
39 to 0, and not-so-feeble Purdue,
16 to 0,
Despite talk of another team of
iron men, Coach Anderson is not
making any predictions on this
week's contest. Pointing to the
high scoring: possibilities of the
T-formation, the Iowa grid men
tor is shaping defensive maneuv
ers for the Huskers.
Racking up 62 points to oppon
ents 14, all by Michigan, the
Hawkeyes don't appear in any
dire need of defensive or offen
sive tactics. Stout line play has
marked a top forward wall and
drove the Michigan eleven to the
air lanes to pave the way for
their t scores.
Tunnell Stars.
Ton threat in the Iowa back
field is Emlen Tunnell. a Necro.
who has an uncanny knack of
pitching and catching the pig
skin. It was Tunnell who threw
Saturday's touchdown Dass to End
Harold Shoener for the Hawkeyes
only score.
