  OKLAHOMA is VICTOR IN CHARITY CONTEST TULSA, Okla, December 12.-In a charity game featured by the uncanny knack of William Pansze in intercept ing passes, the Oklahoma Sooners TOday won a foot ball game from Tulsa University, 20 to 7. The game, post-season tilt for the benefit of the unemployed and for Grip pied children, was played in the mud, before crowd of $500 that wondered how Pansze could snag passes in midair as often as big “Ish” Pilkington, Tulsa captain, could toss them. Pansze intercepted five passes, and Wilmington, substitute, got another. Pilkington tossed one successful heave at Clarence Greene in the last period that netted total single gain of IS yards and six points for the Golden Hurricanes only touchdown. Pilkington, in his last game for Tulsa, kicked for the extra point. Massad scored two Oklahoma touchdowns, and Young the other. The rain began coming down in bucketfuls in the second period and from then on the game changed from a fast, hard-fought one into sliding and fumbling contest.
