At the close of the 1913 season, Hawley had again proved his right to the highest rank among the coaches of the West. With only crude material, he has molded, time and again, teams that have placed Iowa among the foremost Uni- versities of the country. His reputation is based upon undeniable ability, inexhaustible energy, and a strength of personality that stamps itself upon anyone with whom he comes in contact. Aside from his actual triumphs in battle, Hawley has probably done more than any other man to promote a steadfast spirit of loyalty toward everything that bears the stamp of Old Gold. He has aided greatly in the birth of a new devotion to the team, whether it lost or won. Under the generalship of Hawley the Iowa eleven has worked itself up by leaps and bounds, until next fall holds promise of a climax. It is confidently expected that when the curtain falls on the next football season, the old dusty belt of 1900 will have been resumed. 1915

Strainer 3Jark Waiaon With the first year of Iowa ath- letics just over for Jack Watson, fol- lowers of Old Gold can congratulate themselves on possessing such a man. In the history of the school the teams have never before been in such Haw- less physical condition. Watson and his able and enthusiastic assistant. Frank Mann, have followed every man ' s work every day of the season. What does Jack say? is a popular phrase on the Iowa field, and the re- spect shown to the answer is making our training camp one to be copied after. Watson ' s record this year vin- dicates his work as the best trainer in the West. A. By keen business insight and active management Kell has made pos- sible the ultimate success of all forms of athletics at Iowa. He has obtained the best equipment available, and his shrewdness and foresight in arranging schedules have proved extremely sat- isfactory to all. Because he has never spared his time and energy in working for Iowa, and because of his personal friendliness and enthusiasm, the fu- ture finances of Iowa athletics can be nothing but successful with Nelson A. Kellogg at their head. 8 1915
