Rose Bowl Hopes of Hawks Soar Minneapolis (P) Resurgent Iowa sent its Rose Bowl hopes soaring Saturday with a 7-0 upset victory over Minnesota in a jungle-law battle decided by Hawkeye alertness in the face of game-long Gopher fumbling.

He then leaped a fence and disappeared. Fred Tuhey saw the deer shortly after 11 a.m. Saturday near his home in Westwood Park and it was shortly before noon that the buck rammed his antlered skull into the side of the Longfellow car.

Kentucky did almost everything wrong in the first half but still left the field at halftime with that precarious 7-6 lead, thanks to a 36-yard touchdown toss-from quarterback Delmar Hughes to sophomore end Doug Shively. Shively, son of Kentucky's athletic director, outlegged the defensive halfback down the left sideline and took Hughes' pass over his head at the 5 to score unhampered with less than three minutes left in the half.

Not one of these methods, alas, may be applied in our case. Musket fire is frowned on inside the city limits and a pit is not feasible because this animal's game trails are paved with asphalt.

As for a bent-over sapling, this might work with neatness and dispatch but the idea must be discarded because some kind old lady would be sure to come along the minute we yanked this fellow off the ground by a hind leg. You know what would happen then! She'd take her cane to us! If we knew in what part of town he was living on a given morning we might be able to form a posse and surround him. It would then be an easy matter to decrease the circumference of the circle until someone was close enough to grab him. Who? Me? On second thought this would seem to be a decoy job, pure and simple, and the best way to decoy a buck is to make him think a lady deer is hollering at him. All we have to do is find enough folks who know how to imitate the love call of a lady deer and station them at intervals along State Road 3 north of the city.

We could pass him all the way back to Michigan by easy stages, although it would be a dirty trick, at that.

The game was typical of the way that Purdue, now with a 2-3-2 overall record, has looked good- losing in the Big Ten. The Boilermakers lost by one touchdown to Minnesota, by one point to Iowa and tied Wisconsin and Illinois the last the only team to beat State this season.

Purdue staged a good 55-yard drive when threatening in the third period. The Boilermakers went down to the one but were penalized back to the six. Bob Spoo tried an almost, but not quite, end zone pass to Kenny Mikes on fourth down. Purdue was threatening again in the fourth quarter when the Boilermakers picked up their safety.
