    IOWA TRIUMPHS, 27–⁠7, IN IOWA STATE FRAY Spirited Tussle Marks Renewal of G>ridiron Rivalry After 13-Year Suspension. IOWA CITY. Iowa, November A 13-year suspension of athletic rela- tions between the University of Iowa and Iowa State College had not dulled the traditional rivalry between the two State schools today Although the university team won by decisive score of 27 to 7. the game was bitterly fought before 10000 fans. The HaWkeyeS apparently spent most of their offensive drive in the first half, but with 81 to lead garnered in the opening periods were able to keep out of danger. The Hawkeye supremacy stood out sharply during the early part of the game Coach Ossie Solem’s men had picked up a touchdown within the first seven minutes and were able to take advantage of a kicking edge to keep in scoring position most of the time. Although the Big Ten team was never in danger because of its early lead, the visiting Cyclones scored in the third quarter and threatened throughout the last period. Cravne led the Iowa attack with a touchdown early in the first period and a second marker in the second period The HaWkeyeS pushed over a third touchdown in the second period when Crayne went over from the 6-inch line Iowa State, made its only score On lone forward pass from Allender to Miller in the third period. Iowa made its final offensive drive a few minutes later and scored again after Crayne and Laws had advanced the ball into scoring position. The Hawkeyes’ second-string backfeld accounted for the final score. Rook plunging over from the 2yard line.
