(gporti Editor, Th fUiliter A driving offense that ripped through the Iowa State line with surprising ease early in the game launched Drake university toward a 30 to 0 victory over the Cyclones at Drake stadium Saturday. A crowd of 12,000 saw Drake runners, behind beauti with Nebraska and Kansas on successive weeks, frequently took out time because of injuries. William Lechtenburg, a back, suffered a broken wrist, and Al Waite and Vickerstaff were among those removed, although the latter returned to the game.

Bill Luftman started Drake toward its first touchdown when he took the opening kickoff and returned 17 yards to his 36. Pug Manders crashed the line twice for a first down, Suter squirmed through the line twice for another first down on the Cyclone 40, and when plunges by Pug, Suter and Underwood netted only nine yards, the former dived high over the opposing forwards for a third first down on the visitors' 28. When two more thrusts at the line failed to gain the Bulldogs turned to an aerial attack. The first was incom- The victors took the opening kickoff and without losing the ball scored their first touchdown. Their second came soon after, for Iowa State took the kickoff, punted and the Bulldog ball-toters again surged down the field behind their silver-shirted blockers.

Drake scored another touchddwn in the second period, was held to a safety in the third, and again crossed the visitors' goal in the final quarter. Except for the third period and a brief time early in the fourth, when the Cyclone forwards held their own, the Iowa State line, through which Nebraska could not was outcharged and outplayed by the Bulldogs, in spite of the heroic play of Capt. Clarence Dee and Ed Bock, both guards, who are all that has been said for them.x They were really great, even in defeat. Without Everett Kischer, their star forward-passer and ball carrier, the Cyclones had little to offer in the way of an offense, although Hugh Vickerstaff, a wee mite of a lad, played his heart out in his efforts to pass and run. He just didn't have enough help, however, to get anywhere.

Iowa State made only two first downs, both in the third period, which with a five-yard penalty against Drake, resulted in the Cyclone's only scoring threat. They reached the Bulldogs' 19-yard line, but after four plays the local team took the ball on downs on their 24. The victors' offense clicked perfectly so long as Phil Manders was in the game. He seemed to be the sparkplug, However, and when he was on the bench, the Bulldogs, missing his blocking, did not function so well. He was one of the Drake stars.

Others were Pug Manders, Bud Suter, Bob Underwood, Thell Fisher, Capt. Herb Hedlund and Bill Cicero, renter. The Cyclones, apparently battered from their games ful interference, pile up tne Bulldogs largest score in the 37-game history of the classic, and defeat the Cyclones for tne iinsi ume The Bulldogs gave the large homecoming crowd that had gathered under perfect weather conditions thrill fter thrill with their fine blocking, equally sensational tackling, and great ball-car ing.
