for Locals

Outplayed and crushed by superior
weight, the Chickasha high school
took the count Saturday afternoon on
the University park gridiron, A to O.,
said sleep producer having been de.
livered by machine known generally
as the Oklahoma City high school
football team. 1t was the only game
this year in which Chickasha was the
loser that 'if" something had not hap
pened just as it did the score might
have been different The visitors won
and deserved to win.
Without an exception it was the
best trained, most nearly perfect foot
ball team that has appeared here this
year. Every man was on the job,
knew Just what was expected Of him,
and did it. The Norman baekfield is
faster, possibly, in fact the Norman
team as a whole is faster but the Ok
lahoma City bunch develops enough
speed to balance their weight. AS Z
sharp contrast with the Shawnee
game, the struggle Saturday was
clean and the memory of players and
officials is not a nightmare, as was
the former case. Coach Thompson OF
Oklahoma City acted as referee, his
decisions being in every way satisfac-
tory and fair to both teams.
Locals Were Game.
The big score does not mean in any
way that Chickasha as a team, nor
the players individually quit, at any
point in the struggle. They we're on
the job, fighting just as hard, or lit
tie more so in the last quarter as at
the first OF the struggle.
Whitaker, Pool, Hill and Riddle
starred for the locals, especially spec
tacular being the work of Pool, who
showed up better on defensive work
than in any game during the season.
Practically all the gains made by
Chickasha were achieved by Pool and
Whitaker, who in the last half cir
cled the ends of the heavyweights
many times for good gains, but were
always stopped before they became
dangerous.
AT one time in the last half Chicka-
sha held Oklahoma City for downs ON
Chickashas 20-yard line, and with the
assistance of one forward pass, net
ting 20 yards, hammered the ball
down the field into the enemy's coun
try, losing it on Oklahoma City's ~
ward line. Spectacular during this IN
yasion were short end runs by Poo
and Whitaker, both getting away foI
| is. 20 and 25-yard gains. At one time
with the ball in Chickasha's territory
! Whitaker set the crowd wild DS
plunging through the Oklahoma line
heating through the secondary defense
and finally being pulled down after
2O-yard gain.
| Oklahoma scores EaTiy.
The first touchdown came after A.
seconds of play. Oklahoma City wor
| the toss and chose to defend the ives
goal. Chickasha kicked and Oklaho
ma City was downed on its SO-yar'
line. Thereafter with astounding res
ularitv and effect, something KEEP
hammering the Chickasha left wine
Folks were soon to sec that some
| thing was Detar, who crashed througl
for a touchdown. This person Deta
is right now varsity material ana
the star Of the Oklahoma gang, IN
canter When a gain is needed It
Detar who makes It. His teammat
il the backfield, Barbusicsky, is ais
there several different ways and M
corRle at full is every inch footba
player, while the midget Frankie CaT
at quarter is field general worth tn
money.
For a time it seemed that the ge'
cral order of things was for Detar
make all the touchdowns, as he regi
4 tered the FIRST threet. Withal it lool
IKE Oklahoma City is little bett'
than an even bet for the exalted p
sition of state champions.
