IOWA NINE HOPING T0 STOP MICHIGAN By the Assoclated Press. 5 CHICAGO, May 24—The task of halting Michigan's sweep to another Big Ten base ball championship today rested with Iowa. Seeking their fifth straight victory of the conference race, the Wolverines | invaded the Iowa stronghold for the | most important game of today's three- game card.

Northwest- ern handed the Badgers their first d feat of the campaign two weeks ago, 8 to 3, in 10 innings. In the other game, Indiana was at Purdue.
