AUBREY DEVDNE
WILL COACH AT
l0WANEXTYEAR
Many Colleges Made Bid for
Famous All-American
Quarterback.

Iowa City, Ia. Jan. 24.-Aubrey
Devine. All-American quarterback
and captain of the 1921 University OF
Big Ten championship. will coach at
Iowa next year.. He will have charge
of freshman football and will assist in
coaching the Varsity basketball and
track squads.
Aubrey's decision to remain at Iowa
climaxes q series of approaches from
other institutions which were anxious
to obtain his services. The University
OF South Dakota was first to come
forward with a proposition to Aubrey.
Creighton advanced a tentative offer
and the University Of Minnesota like
wise preached the subject. The Min
nesota "feeler" was particularly in
terestins since DR.. Harry L. Williams.
Gopher coach for more than twenty
years. declared OF several occasions
that Devine. was the greatest football
player he had ever seen.
While coaching at Iowa, Devine will
continue his studies in the university's
college of law. where he has two
years more. Of work before he will re-
ceive his degree. It is the hope Of
Iowa authorities to attach him as a
permanent member Of the, coaching
staff when he has completed his uni
Versity course.
Devine is without question one of
the greatest athletes ever turned out
at the Hawkeye institution. He seems
certain to win nine letters in athletic
competition. having already won
seven. with the eighth in sight. and
nothing but a broken leg or other ac-
cident to keep him from the ninth.
His greatest ability is. in football. but
he is good both in basketball and
track: Only two men before Devine
have won nine IT'S" this being the
maximum number possible under uni
versity rulings.

The third man in the ring will be
Dutch Lawrence. Dutch. has
been doing some great work in the
local ring as a referee. That Is say
ing a good deal for a local man. The
JOB Is about as thankless as that Of
an umpire at a ball game. when it
comes to satisfying the fans, but as
q matter Of fact, there has been very
little complaint III the work Of Lawr-
ence and what there has been has
been what could be called isolated"
and u~nilnportant.
Word has beer received here that
Lee Stokes recently received a de-
$50 over Bailey Of Fargo, in q six
round event at Valley City. This
probably accounts for the sure feel
ing he has in regard to his colaing
battle here. His opponent, Ryder,
dom seem to be saying much of any
thing. but he keeps on saving wood,
or perhaps it should be said, pound
ing wood.
Boys Anxious.
Kid Miller said Tuesday he was
ready for his battle with Pal Duncan.
The Pal zoe him one better, how
ever. he says he has been ready for a
week: They both look ready.
A letter from Schwabel, who meets
Russie Leroy, expresses enthusi-
asm over the chance of meeting the
Fargo boy again. He states that while
he has nothing to- say about the out
come Of the two previous fights they
have had, he is glad Of a chance to
meet him again. He admits that Rus
sic is a clever little man, but he says
further that unless Leroy has some
thing new to spring on him, he has
his defense solved and is confident Of
the outcome Of the Friday battle.
