COACH SOLEM
LEAVING IOWA

Coach Ossie Solem Of iowa Uni
vefsity is slated to leave his POST
shortly to accept a similar place
at Syracuse university. While he IS
no doubt getting a mor Lucrative
offer at the latter school, it be-
came evident during the past sea
son that a change was inevitable
The success of a football coach
is determined by his ability to pro-
duce winning teams. And while
Coach Solem is a fine gentleman,
his average here has not been good.
Without attempting to assign a rea-
son tho fact remains that this is
true.
Under his administration, Iowa
has had some fine Negro players.
He was broad enough to give them
tho opportunity thing some
coaches even in the Big Ten have
not done
Just who his successor will be
we will not attempt to guess, but
whoever it is, it is hoped that he
will be no less a sport than Solem
was. Whoever comes will find a Ne
gro captain of the team for 1887
and if he has had no previous X
perience with Negro players fort
unately he will find in this captain
the highest type of man and sports
manship and in the boys who sell
ected him, white men have shown
their confidence in his leadership
by givin him their support.
Negroes who have been students
at the university should use what
ever influence they have that the
new coach may maintain the re-
putation Iowa has had for fair play
for Negro players.
