Tulsa will begin the battle tomorrow

IN the number Of experienced players.

ber In the line "Tuffy" Leemans, half
back; Ben Plotnicki, quarterback; Don
Bomba, fullback; Arnold Benefited, end;
Harry Deming, tackle, and Kenneth

forth.
Big Party Arrives.
DoACH HENDERSON led the Tul-
I sans into town this morning at
sistant coaches, 40 members of the
Windbags, Tulsa's student organization,
and about 100 natives Of the city. The
visiting party established headquarters
at the New Colonial Hotel.
Both teams viii conclude prepara-
tions this afternoon, with the Okla
homans drilling at Grifith Stadium and
the Colonials on some outlying field.
Tulsa's workout was to consist merely
Of looSening up muscles stiffened by
q long train ride, plus some punting,
passing and signal practice The CO.
lonials were to spend couple of hours
perfecting defense for the Hurricanes
tricky plays.
According to scout information Tulsa
employs nine different formations, and
from those runs at least twice as many
plays. all of which means that G. w.
virtually will be looking at nine diff
ferent teams tomorrow night and will
have to be extremely alert on defense.
Big Job for Defense.
II ATHER than use any two or three
II Of these formations merely to
surprise the enemy Tulsa uses its
many formations with more or less
regularity, constantly shifting from one
to another as long as it holds the ball
Coach Jim Pixlee Is assuming that
the visitors are capable of executing
all plays from all formations as they
should be done, and accordingly the
Colonial mentor Is leaving no stone
unturned in an effort to vary G.. WIS
defense.
In weight the teams are evenly
matched. Tulsa's average is 1877, or
just one more pound than George
-Washington's. In the line the Oilers
average l91, which figure again ex-
ceeds by one that of the Buff and
Blue The visiting backfield averages
181 to the Colonials' 179h.
