...informals a year ago this fall. At present, Rollin s is a student at M. I. T., but will devote his afternoons to the football team. Rollins will be assisted by F.J.O'Brien'14 as end coach and W. B. Snow, Jr.,'18 as mentor of the linemen...
...main weakness of the informals was the old fault of not holding their positions, and, in addition, the shooting was rather ragged and inaccurate. A point of offensive strength was the ability of the forwards to form a line quickly and to pass at the right moment. Also, the linemen checked back very effectively. As a result, the opposing line only got started down the ice twice...
...backfield, which included T. C. Thacher '18 and H. W. Minot '17 from the University could make no gains through the middle of the Newport line, while against the all-star collegians at Beverly and in the game with the Philadelphia Marines the defensive work of the Navy Yard linemen figured prominently. A. Horween '20 at centre on the Charlestown team will have a hard, fast playing opponent in Callaban, formerly of Yale. Black, 1916 Yale captain, and Grotemat compose the Naval Reserve guard combination, and they will meet two heavy players in C. A. Clark, Jr., '19 and Shea...

Clark, Jr., '19, Algar of Tufts and O'Connor of Georgetown are well-known college linemen. A. Horween '20, a recruit from the University informals, will start at centre, although he may be supplanted later in the contest by Butler from Bates. The Marines did not arrive in time for a workout in the Stadium yesterday, as previously scheduled. Mahan's plans for enlisting Berry, Miller and Bell...
...Navy Yard, however, has an equally notable list of players in its squad. C. A. Clark, Jr., '19, Algar and Adams of Tufts and Skilton of the B. A. A. are heavy and fast playing linemen. It is in the backfield that the Navy has its greatest strength. E. L. Casey '19, T. H. Enwright '18 and Cannell of Dartmouth, all star players on former University squads, are a trio of backs who have broken up the defence of every team which they have so far encountered. W. J. Murray '18 directs the play. L. H. Leary '05 has been...
