Both elevens are among the most powerful aggregations ever collected. At Newport the names in the squad contain almost an All-American lineup. Black and Callahan of Yale, Paisley of Michigan, and the star Syracuse guard, Schlacter, are in the line. The work of the last-named player was the outstanding feature of the informal-Naval Reserve game. In the backfield, Gerrish from Dartmouth, Barrett, star punter and fast running Cornellian; Hite of Kentucky and Gardiner from the Middle West from an exceptional quartet...

Box-car loads of these suffering men were handled cautiously and gently by the orderlies, and the first building they entered was the Y. M. C. A. marquees. Here they passed by the counter and were given free cocoa, bread, cheese, crackers, and cigarettes. Can you imagine anything more wonderful than coming in, after being out in the enchase for days, perhaps, cold, wet, and hungry, and being given...
