(Spec al to T he I)ai1:V IOWA CITY, Jan,. 4. - Hawkeyes Win, fourth in national track meet ...basket men, upset title-deed eeding Purdue team.. . Iowa ties North- western for Big Ten swim runner- up honors... Gordon jumps to fif- teenth major title... four teams win majority of dual contests. Such might be the headlines to sketch the panoramic tale of Uni- versity of Iowa athletics during 1931, an assortment of individual an~d team feats which marked the year. It was a. year of no team chain-. 1 piqnships. But in, track and swim- min, Iowa m~en won titles for themselves and aided their tearns, to rank close to the top in chain- pionbipcompetition.+ Track Team Ranks High. l Probably the greatest team exhi- bition, was the winning of. fourth place in* the national collegiate track meet. The men scored 26 1/7 points, only five shy of second place, and exceeded all universities and colleges ecept Southern California, OhioState, and Illinois. The conference was -surprised whten the swimming team edged in-4 to a tie for second place in the Big Ten mieek. And the university forced to divide with the Hawkeyes was Northwestern, many years in the pas~t winner -of the title,,while the.. Iowans never had finished better 'than ai distant fourth. Cagers Upset Purdue. If the basketball team could haveI duplicated the kind of game which ' whipped Purdue, it would have beenE a first division ranker. That victorys over the defending chamnpions °was1 a hig~h point of a dismal season;,t another was the decisive victory over Notre ,Damne Edward Gordton went right, on broad jumping to championships, finishing his intercollegiate career in, Jun~e with fifteen major titles to his~ creoit in three seasons. lie took his third national collejgiate, Big Ten, Drake relays, and state meet first place, and set a new, university record of 25 feet 4 8/8 inches. Jaydiin flarler,3 Notedl.. Iowa had two of the na ion,'s best javelin throwers in L. D. Weldon and Elmno Nelson. Both placed i n the N.C.A.A. meet, Nelson, the 1932 baseball captain, taking second af- ter less than ten days of practice, following the ,ball season. Weldon achievedJ 203 feet 51/,, inches at the Kansas games, the third best mnark made in 1931 by a Unite'd States hurler. Olive~r Sansen,: football captain, competed. in a sport in which a man cannot win an individual cham-. pionship on a losing team, yet his play at. fullback was worth a title. Sunmetimes he, made more than half of the tackles; he was the leading ground-gainer and the best blocker." Oosterbaan Drills Squad During Absence of Cappon; Offense Shows Improvement.
