HEAVY GAME

Steady Practice Has Put Local Team in
Good Shape to Give Oklahoma City
Boys Hard Fight
BY Kilbourne)

The contest between the Chickasha
high school and the Oklahoma high
school teams, who have long been ri
walls on the gridiron, promises to be
one of the hottest attractions in the
capital city Saturday afternoon. The
cause for the change in date from Fri
day to Saturday was not the unprepar-
edness Of either team but seems to
have been prompted by desire not to
take the boys away from their studies
tomorrow
Daily practice is being carried on by
the Chickasha team and the boys are
fast coming into excellent form. Coach
Reed is sparing neither time nor ener-
gy in putting the boys through"
The forward pass is, Of course, used
to certain extent, but straight line
bucking and end runs are the most
popular with the players.
The linemen are becoming more and
more acquainted with the various ways
of guarding and tackling, the ends are
doing nicely and, needless to say the
backs are in almost perfect condition.
The second team, made up of heavy,
light and middleweight boys, is doing
nice work also and the players are
giving the higher boys good job to
get through. They make a good show
ing against their "elder brothers and
this is what it takes to make the up
per boys get down to real business.
We are all looking forward to see
ing these boys come out winning this
season and we want to see our expec-
tations realized, SO go to it, boys, we're
watching you all the time,
