California Football Game Off as Unauthorized
Iowa City reports negotiations for a football series between Iowa and California collapsed after Union Pacific officials confirmed the Christmas and New Year’s games offer was unauthorized. Iowa, disappointed by the canceled coast trip, had planned two practice games and hoped to redeem Thanksgiving losses at Recek Island. California’s secretary later said the game could not be arranged and the Iowa manager noted the team could not be ready.
