Jrmng 31. iBarron Fearless, big, strong, and a fighter, Stub was the Gibraltar of Iowa ' s line. He was a deluge of fight and aggressiveness. Where the fray was the thickest Stub could always be found, ;md always calling for more. The critics can not put their time to a better advantage than by watching him next fall. ilax 31. Wilamt The followers of Old Gold feel a profound pride and are inclined to boast when Wilson is mentioned. Charging through, breaking interference, blocking kicks, recovering fumbles, Wilson kept his opponents in continual disorder. On defense he was always there. Much is conceded to Wilson for next fall. They ' re still talking about Sammy in Chicago. At Nebraska they ' re wondering what he did with the ball. Stepping into the harness with little or no experience, he gave Iowa rooters a surprise. He has proved himself the greatest little Napoleon of the gridiron that Iowa has ever had, and his career is yet in its teens. Handicapped throughout the season by injuries, Poss was unable to show his merits, which won him much fame during 1912. However, when he was called, he demonstrated that same old fearlessness and dogged perseverance which convinced all that he had given all he had. With a fresh start next fall he will defend his title to half back with success. 12 1915

A. . Kirk Picked by the authorities as All-Western tackle, Bunt is worthy of greater praise than words can denote. His punting and forward passing were indis- pensable. He is the personifica- tion of fight and intrepidity. We believe that, when the next season closes, the famous Kirk will be known as a brother of Bunt, Unarph J I Carberry has proved himself to be one of Iowa ' s speediest mffff f little fighters. Although re- peatedly handicapped by in- juries, his playing in every game was reliable and efficient. For speed and pluck. Iowa has had no better man than Joe. Much is expected of him next year. A. Ijoughton With complete mastery of the side pass, the key- stone of Iowa ' s spread play. Max is largely responsible for Iowa ' s repeated success in using that play during the past season. From an unprejudiced viewpoint, he outplayed his op- ponent in every game. His con- sistently brilliant work was largely responsible for the strength of Iowa ' s 1913 line. (Earl Ij. Srurrknrr Breck developed marvel- ously during the past season. He broke through the line re- peatedly, blocking punts and tackling. Too much emphasis can not be laid upon his kicking ability, which was one of Iowa ' s greatest assets: and along this line he was a keen rival to former Captain Murphy. An All- Western berth is awaiting him for next year. 11 1915

lamb (Carmirhapl Carm iehael. although at a disadvantage in weight, showed true fight and willingness throughout the sea- son. He was a man the coaches were always glad to send in when needed, for he never failed to give all the situa- tion called for. His fighting spirit and thorough dependa- bility were repeatedly demon- strated. i. iH. tasmt Eason came here from Drake with two years of good expe- rience and training. He was loyal to and fought hard for Old Gold, and should be credited as being one of the best second-string men. Eason deserves hearty recognition for the whole-hearted enthusiasm of his work for Iowa. William C. Bill deserves a big share in the honors won by Iowa ' s 1913 team. His work throughout the season was consistent and effective, and Iowa rooters have learned to depend on him for big gains. His fleetness, clever dodging, and quick thinking will no doubt make him the successor to the position vacated by Dick. tntrst Bills Wills fought hard and con- sistently throughout the great season of 1913. and can be doped as the permanent full back for next year. His speed, grit, and bulldog resolution, demonstrated repeatedly during the past year, qualify him thoroughly as a worthy successor to Captain McGinnis. 13 1915
