Abstract: For a given real entire function $phi$ with finitely many nonreal zeros, we establish a connection between the number of real zeros of the functions $Q=(ph{i}^{\prime }/phi{)}^{\prime }$ and $Q_1=(ph{i}^{″}/ph{i}^{\prime }{)}^{\prime }$. This connection leads to a proof of the Hawaii conjecture [T.Craven, G.Csordas, and W.Smith, The zeros of derivatives of entire functions and the P'olya-Wiman conjecture, Ann. of Math. (2) 125 (1987), 405--431] stating that the number of real zeros of $Q$ does not exceed the number of nonreal zeros of $phi$.
