Model at university left Salvation Army in Oklahama (5)
I believe the answer is:
tulsa
'oklahama' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'model at university left salvation army' is the wordplay.
'model' becomes 't' (Ford Model T car).
'at' says to put letters next to each other.
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'salvation army' becomes 'SA' (abbreviation).
't'+'u'+'l'+'sa'='TULSA'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tulsa that I've seen before include "City in Oklahoma featured in a 60s song" , "An OK place" , "A lust for the Oklahoma oil city?" , "Twenty-four Hours from - (Gene Pitney)" , "Oklahoma city featured in a 1960s pop song" .)
