phase during three-quarters OF the
game. Chickasha High School foot
ball team defeated Lindsay High
by a 20 to count at University
Park Friday afternoon.
The playing Of Williams, Adams
G. Coryell and Fields. Chickasha
men, was spectacular and often was
the subject of favorable comment
from the spectators, altho the steady
and reliable playing of every man on
the Chickasha eleven was easily the
feature of the game.
"Spink" Williams, right half back
was the answer to the Chickasha
victory, assisted by stellar defensive
playing by Coryell and Fields; the
ability Of Phillips and Adams to bust
up the Lindsay attempts to forward
pass and their own reliability in ad-
vancing the ball Williams was in
every play; he was the backbone of
the Chickasha defense, and often
robbed the Lindsay lads from long
gains, by his low and hard tackling.
Coach Louie Gardner's line was a
brick wall. Seldom did it falter by
the jar and strain of the hard hits
from the heavier Lindsay backs,
who, at times, delivered some m%,,
blows against the Chickasha first
line of defense. Driscoll Slaughter
back, Johnson, Pennp and White
formed a combination that made sled
ding for their opponents hard at in
tervals. Cochran piloted the team in
veteran style; many of the long
gains made by the Chickasha D,sok-
field being the direct result Of
Cochran's heady playing.
The Lindsay machine often showed
the effects Of lack of proper coach
ing. Their formations of play were
generally poor, and by lack of train
ing their machine proved inharmon-
ious At times, the losers showed
class in piercing the line, but nose
periods were generally short and
were materially Of little benefit.
Witt, fullback; Hargis, left half
back, and Phelps, right halfback,
were the best performers for the
visitors. This trio were the Lindsay
men who were responsible for the
Lindsay gains, and they were the
mainstay of the visitors defense.
