RECAP

The "fumbleitis" which plagued Iowa against UCLA seemed to rear it's ugly head once more as Purdue snatched a Hawk bobble on Iowa's 10-yard line and scored. But the Hawks roared back as Bob McKenzie run in for a TD, and Bill Reichardt booted the extra point to tie the game. Fred Ruck sneaked over the goal line minutes later for Iowa's second touchdown. The defense was strong, holding Purdue three times within their own 10-yard line.
