The stunning triumph assured the Hawks at least a tie for the Big Ten crown with a 5-1 record as previously unbeaten Minnesota was upset, 23-14, by Purdue. The Gophers must beat Wisconsin next week to share the championship. THE FIFTH-RANKED Hawks displayed their crispest attack of the season in turning back powerful Ohio State, which had lost only one game and was ranked third this week.

Iowa was performing In Its last home game under head coach Forest Evashevski. And the players shot the works, building a 28-6 half-time lead and using a stubborn defense to turn back the Buckeyes' second-half bids. Williams also scored on a two-yard plunge in the rout. Quarterback Wilburn Hollis added a 12-yard touchdown and his understudy. Matt Szykowny, scored on a sneak.

Ohio State quarterback Tom Matte who had a brilliant day for the Buckeyes but alone couldn't turn the tide and fullback Bob Ferguson scored Ohio State's touchdowns.

McXitt raced back to the 22 after snagging the ball. The interception halted an Indiana threat and enabled Michigan to carry an 8-7 lead into the second half. But when they returned to Suddenly, it was Northwest- ern's turn again. DICK THORNTON', the Wildcats' consumate field general, staged one scoring thrust of 68 yards which closed the gap to three points halfway through the final quarter.

Then he left 47,022 Home the field after the intermission, it was like another team swing ticking off, the gifted quarterback threw an incomplete pass all the way over the end zone. IRONICALLY for Northwestern, veteran, fullback Mike Stock missed all three of the extra-point kicks which would have given the Wildcats a tie. Ironic because he hadn't missed one all season seven for seven in the Wildcats' previous games.
