NORMAN DEFEATS
GAME EVER HERE
BERNIER'S FIELD GOAL IN
SECOND GOAL ONLY SCORE
OF THE GAME.
Outplaying the Chickasha team in
every department of football. Norman
high school Friday afternoon defeat
ed the visitors by a score of > to 0
in the best high school game ever
played on Xorman's field. I he only
Retire of the game cam* in the sec-
ond quarter when Bernier boated a1
droplock ir cv the i;oal from the;
twenty-yard line.
Though most of the game was
played in Norman's territory, their
goal line warf in real danger but once
and that was hi the fourth f'. me
when a purple and gold man blocked 1
a forward pass, recovered it and start-
ed for the goal line lie was grabbed ;
by Bernier before he made a geta-
way.
Many times during the game tin
spectators, who almost completely
tilled the blehcln rs. came to thei
feet and rooted for the team S<
era! tinn-s when Norman sweot down
the field by live at'd six yard rims
fans started calling for a touchd
Gained 60 Yards Majority.
Though Norman did not attempt '
tin- aerial game but a few times, tlwy
gained J24 yards to 164* for Chicka-
sha. Time after time, the Norman
backs went through the opposing line
i «r good gains. Only seldom were
they thrown for losses, and only then
on account of fumbles.
Chickasha, depending almost en-
tirely upon "'Diamond" Roach, full-
back, was unable to make consistent
rains through the bla« k and gold line
and their eleven attempts at forward
parses went for naught, they only
completing two oi them for a gain
of forty-five yards
The game started with Chickasha
kicking off, and the first quarter saw
the ball exchanged many times on
I'iints, Hernier averaging a few more
yards on his kicks than did Roach
f Chickasha. In the second quarter
N' l.uan started on her twenty-yard
line, made seven over-tackle bucks
fur thirty-five yards and with a pass

thirtv-tive more put them down
where Bernier drop-kicked the goal.
Roach Fails at Goal.
In the first half spectators estimate
tli..! Xornian made first down at least
iw ' one over Chickasha. In the
last half it was almost an even-up
fight, both teams struggling epenly.

average. Norman fumbled seven |
times to Chickasha'* four. Chicka-
sha called time out twice and Norman !
once.
The bleachers were filled with I
rooters for Norman and over a linn- (
died fans accompanied the Strauss
men over Leading by only the mar- (
gin of three points, Chjckasha did not |
give up until the final whistle sound- l
ed, and tin play see-sawed one way
and then the other after the teams
went in for the* second half.
May Be All-State Full.
Bernier plunged the line time af
ter time for good gains, as did Davis,
Stout and luce, balance of hacktield
men. This is the second game that
the toe work of Bernier has saved
the day, he having tied the \ltus
score with two field goals. Mis line
nluuging. passing and kicking is at-
tracting the attention of state sport
writers and he now stands a good
chance to be named all-state fullback.
Shawnee, who Friday beat Knid 21
to 7, will come here next Friday
Shawnee has been going good this
season and while they got off id a
bad start, their score against Knid
last week indicates that tliev have
found their stride and that this week's
game will be no easy one for Norman.
