S. itrk By many critics pronounced the best half back in the West, Leo Dick leaves Old Gold ' s followers with a higher standard and a greater appreciation of good, clean football. He was unani- mously elected captain for next year, and the whole University regrets that, owing to his gradu- ation in the spring, he will be unable to act in that capacity. A. The wearers of the sacred I showed a keen insight and a profound appreciation when they united to a man in select- ing Old King as captain for the ensuing year. If leadership indicates anything as to success, Iowa rooters can an- ticipate a championship team under Gunderson. Halter 31. Penny struck his gait in his last year, and proved himself an able running mate to Dick. His aggresive- ness and fight, coupled with weight and speed, kept the enemy in danger every mo- ment of the game. In refense Penny was deadly, repeatedly breaking through the interfer- ence and downing the runner. (Earl With unlimited fighting spirit, courage and speed, Bow made the right end of Iowa ' s bulwark impreg- nable. His value became paramount in going down under punts. Bowen has been a dependable and con- scientious worker for Iowa, and the place he leaves vacant, as he graduates, will not be an easy one to fill. 10 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
