Wisconsin marked up Its second Western Conference football victory today by edging out Indiana, 27 25, in a high-scoring thrill-packed seesaw game which kept 33,000 home-coming fans on edge until the final gun.

Outstanding in the battle were Wisconsin's great nophomora fullback, Pat. Harder, and Indiana's Billy Hillenbrand, also a sophomore back, who sparked his team with three touchdown passes and an 85- By W. BLAINE TATTON, Sports Editor The Star. Lafayette, Oct. 25.

A home-coming gathering of foothall fans stimated at 22,000 witnessed the favorite sons of old Turdue come back with an electrifying fourth-quarter drive to stave off apparent, defeat at the hands of the Iowa Hawkeyes, snatch the victory out of the fire and win by a score of 7 to 6. A blocked kick, often repeated weakness of Boilermaker elevens in recent years, paved the way for a third-period touchdown for the invaders. Failure to convert the extra point ultimately prevented the hard-fought struggle ending in deadlock. Culver made one touchdown in the second quarter and two in the fourth period. Fullback Dierker and Halfbacks Fee and Hunt did most of the ball carrying for Culver.

A long forward pass, Sniderman to End Morrow, accounted for Culver's second touchdown. watched the fleet Bobcat backs from Alliens, gallop to a 20-to-7 triumph.

Indiana filled tho air with passes as the clock was running out, but Wisconsin had possession of the ball on a punt exchange as the game ended. Tosses Are Sensational. Indiana's most powerful offensive weapon, Its passing attack, netted it 167 yards.

This tremendous yardage was piled up on six successful attempts out of 17 trys. On each of the successful trys, it wsi the sensational Hillenbrand who pitched the oval. Wisconsin's forward pass activity, although it was considerably less than Indiana's, also was Impressive. The Badgers gained 126 yards on five trys. In total yards for kicks returned, the Hoosiers had a large edge, piling up 170 yards against 136 for the Badgers.

The high point of this activity was Hillenbrand's thrilling 87 -yard run through the entire Wisconsin team.

(-TV-Minnesota's Golden Gophers stole the Michigan punt and pass recipe today and left the Wolverines without, even a prayer. The mighty men from Minneapolis, in handing Michigan Its first defeat of the season and its eighth straight in the series, drove the opening wedge for their touchdown with a 70-yard punt, set it up with a 43-yard pass play, and from there on smothered the out-manned Wolverines and even got a dashed 26 on a fake reverse and then Heinz alternated with Chicatelll on six plays which carried to the eight-yard line, from where the latter passed to Ramsey for the initial touchdown. John Zarndt added the extra point from placement, Tom Sleet returned the klckoff to the 16-yard line after fumbling, but three plays gained only seven for Iowa while the Boilermakers registered 44 yards on 10 attempts. Blocked On Tass Attempt. After receiving the opening kickoff the Boilermakers made a first down with the aid of an offside penalty to put the leather on their own 40 where an attempt at a forward lost eight yards when the passer was rushed.

Part of this was made up but when an attempted pass was smothered the leather was kicked out of bounds at the Iowa 27. Eight yards were gained by rushing. Iowa drew a penalty for clipping while the ball was in the air on a punt and it was awarded to the Boilermakers as a first down Roberts, at end, were the only linemen who appeared up to par.

Paced by Reserve Fullback Bill Hall of Indianapolis, who scored two touchdowns, the Little Giants tallied once in the second period and twice in the final quarter before the visitors scored. The first touchdown came midway in the second period when Hall smashed off tackle from the 10-yard line after Leach had kirted right end for 30 yards. The Wabash earned 15 first downs rnarch in the first period and made 255 yards from rushing.jafter Don Griffin had run back an while Hanover registered three interception 16 yards.

Minnesota had taken the hall on its 15 after a Michigan out-of-bounds punt and with the drawback of a penalty, got up only to its 19.

At that point Eruce Smith, the Gophers' heavy-duty back, dropped back to kick. Sophomore Tom Kuzma, Michigan's safety man, was playing in too close and the ball traveled over his head and, once It hit the ground, took too many bounces to make it safe for Kuzma to play it. Perforce he had to let the ball roll and roll it did, until it stopped dead on the Michigan 12, 69 yards down the field. On the first play Kuzma tried to run the ball, fumbled and recovered for a loss of seven yards. That meant he had to kick and he got off a creditable boot up to his own 48, where Smith was smeared in his tracks.
