((bree wraps at wall on cam)) amanda bree, thanks. well this is the trophy coveted by the iowa hawkeyes today--

takes home this shiny hardware... it would be the first rose bowl win since the 1950s. amanda/1shot now everyone has a good luck charm. rabbits foot, gameday rituals, whatever it may be. but for one hawkeye, hers is the rose bowl medal she earned as a drummer in a university of iowa band. she wore that medal proudly for every hawkeye game. this thanksgiving, it went missing. but the good luck it provided her was never lost... local 5's claire powell is here with her story. " " "anyone who knows me knows about my rose bowl medal" take one look around dorothy carpenters home "we're certainly a family of hawkeye fans" there's no doubt. shes a hawkeye. and has been since 1956 when she joined the famous scottish highlanders, an all female bagpipe and drumming band. "oh im right here, third snare" as fate has it, her first year at iowa, the hawks made it to pasedena.

hawkeyes to get to go to the rose bowl for the very first time" the band played on their train ride out, in the parade, at halftime and on the rides back. and after it all, they got this medal. carpenter has worn it nearly every day since. "i consider it a good luck charm too. i wear it to all teh games" that was until the monday before this thanksgiving. nearly 60 years later. she went to the grocery store with it on... "the chain was there, the link was on the chain, teh medal itself is gone. i could not imagine, what on earth, how i couldve lost it" so she put an ad in the paper and crossed her fingers. "lost and found, reward if found and my undying gratitude and my phone number" as she was figuring it was in a pawn shop somewhere, her phone rang. " this womans voice. please call, i have something important to tell you. that was all. could it possibly be... that shes calling about my rose bowl medal..." fate struck again.

excited about finding me as i was about her finding my medal,. i had really lost all hope" looking back makes her laugh "too much stuff..." even though she's not making another trip to pasedena, she thinks the medals return a sign. good luck is on it's way. just like 1957. "....i have a good feeling" amanda great story from claire we have lots morning iowa ahead...but first: got a rather confusing, note 2015 came to a close. abc's phillip mena lyster have that and more in this morning's techbytes. facebook 46-year glitch: a new year's special for facebook users, a glitch resulted in their be in today's "techbytes," happy 46th anniversary facebook. wait, the guy who invented the social network is only 41. >> that didn't stop automated messages for congratulateing members for being facebook
