Chickasha Gridsters Show Better
Form During Week and Hopes
High over Coming Contest
With Capital City.
CAP. WILLIAMS SLATED
TO START AT HALFBACK
viii BE First Appearance of "Spink'
This Season; Coaches Work on
Improvement Of Defense in
Aerial Attack.

with Captain Williams in the line
up at halfback and with a machine
far more capable of grinding out a
victory than the one that was de
foated by Lawton here last Friday,
the Chickasha high school foot ball
team will go to Oklahoma City to-
morrow with hopes Of winning from
the capitol city lads.
Coach Powers and Marker have
been working the local gridsters
overtime this week in an attempt to
strengthen the weak spots in the
team through which Lawton won
victory last week,
Interference is Better
The weak cogs in the Powers
Marker machine that proved fatal in
the Lawton game were the inability
to run effective interference to break
passes. The team has made a won
derful Improvement in these depart
ments. The local mentors believe
that Captain Williams men can stop
any aerial attack the Oklahoma City
ans may attempt to launch.
That the line will doubtless be
able to Withstand an attack without
faltering was evidenced in the Law
ton game The only fear of Gandom |
is that the locals may not be able to
cope with the heavy capital lads in
advancing the ball.
Players Are Hopeful
The Powers men are hopeful of
coping victory from their big op.
ponents in tomorrow contest. They |
are going to Oklahoma City and dis
play everything they have in stock. !
Fifteen mon, Coach Powers stated |
this morning, will make the trip
These men are Dick SHnson, Thur
man Williams, Earl Smith, Leland
Adams, Pat White, Glenn White,
Clinton Steinberger Stanley Driskill,

back
In the event that Williams or Stln-
son is forced to retire from the
game, Coryell will be switched to the
back field Houston Hill will succeed
Coryell in case the latter is removed
from center
Washburn and Fields will be in re
servo Tor ends or IN the DaCk .llelu.
Washburn played for short time in
the Lawton game and Fields is a
veteran of last years team. Orch
ard will be in reserve in case of the
line men are knocked out.
Schlotterbeck has bum shoulder
but it is believed he will be able to
play during the entire game at Ok
lahoma. City If he is forced to get

be used at quarterback if Adams is
knocked out.

The work Of Mesa, the sturdy right

into the breach made by the hard hit
ting of the Gunners off Gomez in the
