...points against them. Coach Leary's Navy Yard eleven, however, strengthened during the past week, had no difficulty in defeating an all-star team at Beverly, 34 to 0. L. H. Enwright '18 and E. L. Casey '19 were the stars, while C. A. Clark, Jr., '19, W. J. Murray '18, W. Rollins '16 and A. Horween '20 also played for the sailors...
...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 coaching the team regularly for several weeks...

The informals' defence stiffened momentarily but Cannell was finally able to cross the line on a plunge between guard and tackle...

...have not had much practice but every player is an individual marvel or he would never be on the field. The undergraduate sympathy will doubtless be with the Navy for its line-up contains four men who, if this were a normal year, would be representing the University. Clark, Murray, Casey and Enwright will all start the game; it is Casey's first appearance in the Stadium since we watched him wriggle through the Princeton line last year...
