The Boilermakers, their Rose Bowl dreams blasted by North western and Michigan after a heart-breaking loss to Notre Dame, finally got on the winning path in a rough and tumble scrap with the Hawkeyes. The score didn’t actually show the difference between the two teams. Most of the breaks went against the Boilermakers but they were equal to the occasion on a homecoming contest watched by Al .000.> Purdue scored one touchdown in the final s. seconds of the second period and would have had another except for a penalty. ~. The Boilermakers rushed to a 1870 lead midway in.the third period on Harry Szulborski’s 9-yard dash and virtually clinched the game on Bob Demoss’ punch from the l-foot mark in the fourth period for q 20–⁠7 lead. Iowa, which had made its only previous threat with a drive to the 16 early’in the second period, scored on the second play of the fourth period on Ralph Doran’s smash from the 1-yard line. The Hawks pulled up to 1920 in the closing seconds when AL Dimarco tossed to Bob Mckenzie for a 48-yard gain to the and Sophomore Mearl Naber hit across on the next play. pumd,,. 1UwS ------ y l3–⁠53 5533 Iowa scoring: Touchdowns-Doran Ma beT Point after observation-disclosures Purdue scoring: neutrality-suspicious., Szulborski, De Moss.
