Question for Dec 13

The first recorded kidnapping of Bill in modern times was accomplished only a week before the X-Y football game 1953. A group from West Point snuck onto the Annapolis grounds and kidnapped Bill. Bill was finally returned back to Y under orders from President Eisenhower.

Inspite of a truce being made between X and Y, the kidnappings have continued (the last of which being in November 2007). All the instances of Bill being kidnapped by groups from X have taken place in November-December, just week(s) prior to the X-Y football game, which is traditionally the last regular season game played in Division 1-A football.

In light of these kidnappings, Team Bill (see visual) was formed. Team Bill is a group from Y who volunteer to take care of Bill and transport Bill to and from events.

Identify X,Y.
