'- W l COLLEGE . E AGRICULTURAL ur GREETING T0 THE STUDENT BODY OF CONNORS STAT There's a lot of talk these days about totaling up our assets ht Oklahoma and then advertising o many advantages to the rest of the nation. ln any such accounting, l'm sure we'll find one of our greatest assets to be you students here at Connors State Agricultural College. You represent the most important investment we have to make in the future. We must depend on you to make that progress for Oklahoma tomorrow which those ol us o little olde only dream about today. That's why we ask you to stay in Oklahoma, help your state grow, and grow with it. Your best opportunities lla here at homo, where you belong. And the rest ot us can't expect much ol a future unless we are assured ot your leadership in the days ahead. Sincerely Johnston Murray A 0 .J V ev-. 'i! 'Wex T l T ll -1- ll E E E 0 G L E 'H L N E T G S E CONNORS STATE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE was auth- orized by an act of the first legislature, May 10, 1908. Through the influence of Senator Campbell Russell, Warner was chosen as its location and one-hundred-sixty acres of land upon which the school is now located was given to the school by the citi- zens of Warner. The school was named for Mr. J. P. Connors who was at that time President of the State Board of Agriculture. The first session of Connors opened in February of 1909 in downtown Warner. ln1911, the Administration Building was com- pleted and the school moved to its present site, one mile west of Warner. Mr. J. A. Liner was the first president in 1910, and he was followed by Mr. J. S. Murray, in 1911. The presidents during the 1912-13 session of the school were Mr. J. V. Faulkner and Mr. W. S. Jackson. President Tenn.ick replaced President Jackson in 1913, but remained only a short time. He was succeeded by Mr. Malone who resigned in 1917. At that time, Mr. George A. Coffey of Haskell State School of Agriculture was transferred to Connors. ln 1913, Mr. H. C. King became president of Connors and held the position for fifteen years. Succeeding him as presi- dent was Mr. JacobJohnson, whose service has been continuous. ln 1943, the war program culled Mr. Johnson into active service overseas and, during this leave of absence, Mr. True B. Emerson served as acting President. From the original one-hundred-sixty acres, the college land has been increased from one to twenty maior buildings. The campus,which covers about thirty-four acres, is beautifully land- scaped. The residence section has built westward from Warner toward the college and, in 1947, Mr. Elmer Nix builtthe College Shoppe across the street from the campus. This shop serves the college as a bookstore also. An amendment to the Oklahoma Constitution, made on July 11, 1944, set up a governing board for the Agricultural and Mech- anical Colleges. Th-is Board consists of nine members, eight of whom are appointed by the Governor subiect to the approval of the State Senate, and the ninth member is the President of the State Board of Agriculture. The present membership of the Board consists of: R. T. Stuart, Caddo, Edward T. Davis, Erick--Chairman, P. E. Horrill, Oklahoma City--Vice Chairman: W. Elmer Harber, Shawnee-- Secretary, Fred G. Drummond, Hominyg O. L. Lackey, Hitchitag Earl Russell, Duncan, John Pat Carpenter, Red Rock, and Harold Hutton, President of the State Board of Agriculture, , Oklahoma City. 1 hi 3' 7 L V , ' :THE 5 Q' 5 -.

We won the conference championship in basketball, and ran a close second in football. Our Connors Showboat of 1951 was a de- lightful success. Campus activities made our college life interesting and enjoyable. All these and countless other events are chronicled in the pages of your 1951 Con-Rahl In years to come you will treasure this book because it contains a pictorial story of a pleasant year in your life. To those who will be graduating in May: You have helped our college during your stay here: we hope that we in turn have helped you. Good luck and best wishes lor a long, prosperous, and useful life. To those who will be returning this tall: You did your part in making our 1950-51 school year a pleasant and profitable one. We are looking forward with pleasure to having you back with us again. Sincerely, 4 I A. B. Childress Presiclenfs Message Congratulations to this year's staff for this, our year- book for 1950-51. The events recorded here are important to you, the students, because they represent history that you have made. You are the products of our state and our school and our most important asset. Citizenship in a democracy in these times is a great privilege and a great responsibility. The preservation of these privileges will be the concern of all of you. lt is the hope of those of us at the college that the time you have spent here and the training you have re- ceived will contribute much to your ability to meet the tasks that lie ahead. Best wishes to all of you. We know you will live up to the best traditions of your school. Sincerely yours Jacob Johnson Registrar and Chief Clerk Miss Anna Belle Gatlin, Registrar, Chief Clerk, and secretary to Presi- dent Johnson, lets deeds speak louder than words. lt may be said that she meets you first,last,and many-times-in-between your arrival and departure from the academic halls of Connors. Little but mighty is our word for her and we like her that way. Dean of Wvomen As your Dean of Women,l compliment your graces, your charms, your attractive appearance, your integrity, and your ability to live with people and like them ..... As an instructor fmathematicsl, l congratulate you on your mental growth--in the power of analysis--in the art of thinking.... As Sponsor of the Con-Rahl, l give you all the hours spent in helping to assemble memories for you ..... And, as a person living in this particular age of atomic fear and uneasiness, l would like to say to each of you what l firmly believe--the will to do needs but the Grace of God to he done.

Mr. John Fletcher who has been our College engi- neer for twenty-seven years--next in length of service in years to Mr. Huckleberry, whom we honored in our last issue of The Con-Rah! Our hats are off to John, as he is affectionately known, for his ability to cope with all the complaints-- real and fancied--of a busy Campus for so long and yet be able to retain a youthful, merry attitude toward us all. ln addition to his duties as College engineer, he does a lot of other things well. His barbecues are famous, he wears a chef's cap and apron with aplomb land a twinkle in his eyel, and his service at such time leaves nothing to be desired. His ability to remain calm in the face of emer- gencies and act quickly has saved the College money-- andthe President and Dean many gray hairs. His of- fice is the campus and in it he can be found busy at many things most of the year.

The above farm veterans attending Connors Agri- cultural College under the Veteran's AgriculturalTraining Program are rapidly establishing themselves in a pro- gressive program of successful farming. Each veteran has a farm program to provide full time employment on produc- tive farm work, whereby he may earn the above minimum standards of living and become a proficient and self- reliant citizen in his community. Veterans are trained to overcome the two important factors that enslave farmers: fl, a lack of understanding of fundamental facts and principles of farmingp Q21 failure to have sound, valid objectives based upon the performance of superior farmers. At least two visits per month are made to the veteran on his farm by the instructor and eighteen hours per month of technical work in class is given each student.

WAYNE MULKEY BILL CARR HAROLD GANN Guard G '-'Wd G amd Sm bn 2 ut CLARENCE LYNCH Forward This was the game to determine if the Aggies were to be Conference champs or Co-champions. The game was not as close as the score would in- dicate. It was another hard fought game which saw three Aggie regulars fouling out in the latter part of the ballgame. By the excellent handling of Coach Rogers anda fighting spirit of the team, the Aggies maintained the lead which they had built up to win 54-52, and to be- come Conference champions for the first time in the history ofthe College. On March 2, the Aggies traveled to Oklahoma City for the final game of the season with the Oklahoma City Freshmen. Having defeated the O. C. U. Freshmen on their home court,the Aggies took it on the chin when they lost 44-40. The Connors Aggies ended the most successful sea- son inthe history of the school by winning I9 and losing only 3 ballgames. The highest scorer of the Aggies for the season was Clarence Lynch of Stidham, who scored 347 points with an average of 15.77 per game.
