ime during the game, the locals made
but eight first downs in 43 attempts
The visitors, in 6S plays, made their
required distance 10 times. Reno out
kicked the locals, though neither side
exhibited even an average kicker.
Visitors Attack Limited.
The attack of the visitors was
limited. They had nothing upon
which they could count for a gain,
with the exception of a line plunge
and Buck Deatley did 80 percent of
that. Their end runs, which they
tried several times proved to be pay
sand only two or three times Their
forward pass, which had been touted
in advance did not develop into any
thing at all dangerous Only two or
three forward passes were completed.
Had Chickasha's line changed, the
gains made by the FL Reno backs
through the line would have been cut
down. That, however, is one depart
ment in which Chickasha is weak.
The line did not charge as fast and
as hard as El Reno and was there
fore, carried off its feet by the oppo-
sition
Chickasha's backs should get away
more like they were going some
where. They are little sluggish in
their movements. After they get 60
