to say of the game:

ing and footing of Lawton fans. The
visiting team showed more form than
the home team in every point Of the
gridiron game, The visitors were
more aggressive, faster, stronger in
interference, more successful at tackle
and other gridiron things too numer-
Gus to mention. They played ball, as
did Lawton, and notwithstanding the
uneven score the game was greatly en-
joyed by the three hundred fans.
The Lawton team outweighed the
visitors but played ragged and with
much uncertainty. Chickasha started
out with right and left line plays and
never ceased to pull them off, Lawton
seemingly being unable to break their
formations. When close to goal the
visitors would go through Lawton's
line almost at will. The visitors were
also much more successful in forward
passes. Five times did Lawton pass
the ball into the arms of chickasha
players.
Both Chickasha and Lawton scored
touchdown in the first quarter,
neither side kicking goal. In the sec
