Coach Wanamaker has at his command one of the beat squads to report for a Yale hockey team in many years. Last season the Elis were handicapped by a lack of outstanding stars about whom a team could be built. This year, however, a strong team has been developed around Captain Bulkley at left wing, Scott, strong center of last year's Freshman team, who made five goals in Yale's 13 to 0 defeat of the American School of Osteopathy last Saturday, and O'Hearn, who is rated as one of the foremost hockey players in the country...

Nelson, in command of two squadrons of thirty-six chasers, performed excellent service in strengthening the Otranto barrage at the entrance to that sea, and in operations in support of certain cruiser actions. In one of the latter, a dozen chasers gave splendid support to a combined British and Italian squadron of cruiser in the bombardment of Durazzo. During this action, the chasers not only effectively shielded the cruisers from submarine attack, but destroyed at least two submarines...
