    According to a New York Times article from November 26, 1915, the Army football team, with which Head Coach Lieutenant C.D. Daly and tackle Captain "Babe" Weyand were affiliated, were to meet Navy's team for the annual Army-Navy Game at New York's Polo Grounds that weekend. select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30B13F6395D1673... "Charles Dudley "Charlie" Daly (October 31, 1880 – February 12, 1959)[1] was an American football player and coach, an author, and served in the United States Army during World War I. He played college football as a quarterback at Harvard University and the United States Military Academy and served as the head football coach at the latter from 1913 to 1916 and 1919 to 1922, compiling a career record of 58–13–3. Daly was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a player in 1951. He also served as Fire Commissioner in Boston during the 1910s." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Dudley_Daly "Alexander Mathias "Babe" Weyand (January 10, 1892 – May 10, 1982) was an American football player, Olympian, Army officer and sports historian. He was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1974." "At the United States Military Academy at West Point from 1911–1915, he starred at tackle and was the captain of the 1915 team." Nicknamed during his "yearling" (sophomore) year at West Point "Babe" by his teammate Dwight David Eisenhower, he was described in The Real All Americans: The Team That Changed a Game, a People, a Nation (Jenkins, S., Random House 2007) as a "tireless, one-man wrecking crew." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Weyand Weyand's Hall of Fame page: www.footballfoundation.org/Programs/CollegeFootballHallof...

    artolog: Thanks for supplying the full names and dates for these people. We'll add them to the record next time we update.

    Weyand was 6"2" and Daly 5'7", so I'm picking Daly for the guy on the right.

    Can't figure out who R. Brown was, however. There was an umpire at that year's game named Brown, but that's all I was able to find out.
