BY the Associated Press. “A ADDISON, Wis, october ga M husky horseman, Oliver San N sen. left the ranks of substi- 1 i tutes and joined the most select company of gridiron heroes today by leading Iowa to revengeful IA to 0 conquest over Wlsconsin before a Dads day throng of $4,000 spectators at old Camp Randall. With the Badgers smashing the Iowa line with a victorious gesture IN the second period, Sansen, who first gained fame by tossing a javelin at Alta, Iowa, was injected in the Hawk lineup to replace the mighty Brice Thomas at fullback. He responded few minutes later by climaxiEg a Hawkeye rush with a 17-yard dash for the first and decisive touchdown. Oran Pape, the Hawkeye speedboy who barely played with his mates because of professional suspicion, scored a touchdown, too, but it came with only two minutes to go and with the issue set against the Cardinals. The Iowa victory, revenge Cor the 10 to defeat Wisconsin handed the Hawks last season, signalized a raid by the Iowa rooters that resulted in a general fist fight after the game. Iowa gained its victory today largely because of a better fighting line. The Hawk forward wall dashed the Badgers repeatedly and finally halted two Wis corsin touchdown threats. Capt. Willis Glasgow, whose long dash enabled Wisconsin to tie Illinois last week, started well extensively as well as defensively even though he didn’t make a touchdown today He gained total of IA yards from the line of scrimmage.
