THE 1919 CROAKER 4 .. s-w jfootball COACH DAY When the 1917 football season opened last fall the outlook was not the most promising. In two years Wesleyan had won but one game. This, together with the fact that most of the undergraduate football stars had entered the service of the nation, made clouds hang heavy over the Wesleyan gridiron. However, Coach Day went to work with fine optimism. The ruling passed by the Iowa Conference, making Freshmen eligible for football, caused our hearts to lighten. All of the men with the exception of three Seniors and two Juniors were without college experience, and only a few of the Freshmen had had the advantage of good high school training. Coach Day came to Iowa Wesleyan with a fine record in football circles, having been chosen as All-Rockv Mountain full back while attending school at Denver University. His good-natured but thoroughly dignified bearing has done much to keep the athletics of the school going in spite of the fearful inroads caused by the war.
