C. U. voters chose on March 27 one girl from each organization. Those picked as finalists for the grand finale election one week later were Erna Baker, Kappa Tau Delta, Esther Mae Wymore, Beta Alpha Phig Margaret Mitchell, Phi Delta, Faye Bragg, Alpha Omega, Virginia I-land, Phi Phi Phig and Maurine McKnight, non-Greek. On April 3, the Goldbug electorate ballotted again. When the votes were counted, Erna Baker, blond, a senio1', and an education major, had led the field-and by the biggest margin in years. She had polled just exactly one and a half times as many votes as her nearest rival. To use a very trite expression, such popularity must be de- served. Queen Erna presided in state at the annual Scarab Stunt Nite, held on Wednesday night, April 8. She was escorted by Kietli I-lefley, 1936 Scarab business manager.

G. Williancson or onesty, Sincerity, ourag at And Because His is a Capable Hand by Hi nary We, the junior and senior classes of Oklahoma City University, dedicate the 1936 Silver Anniversary Scarab, to Dr. A. G. Williamson, president and alumnus of Scarabia. ln so doing, we also dedicate this book to honesty, sin- cerity, zeal and courage, qualities which are inherent in this man who is our leader. Coming to O. C. U. in an hour of blackness and de- spair, Dr. A. G. Williamson set steadfastly to the task of rebuilding faith in this institution. First, by means of an enthusiasm which produces re- sults, he made us to believe in him, the man. Then, feel- ing his way skillfully until he was master of the situation, he made us to believe again in our university and its destiny. We saw his sure hand upon the helm and we have grown to trust in him. We have not been dis- appointed. But it is not enough for him to be our protector and our provider. I-le is also our friend and counsellor, ready at a word or a sign to sit with us, advising and suggesting. Though called from the pastorate of a great church to a more difficult task, he is still the minister of Christ, eager to share with each of us the loads which are ours to bear. It does not matter that he has the greatest load of all. Today he is setting out upon a financial campaign which will lift Oklahoma City University from the slough of the depression. The goal is 3I,500,000. Those debts which for years have choked us will be paid. The size of the university will be doubled. An endowment fund will be established. A high goal has been set and this man who is our leader, yet our companion, will reach it. ln September, 1912, A. G. Williamson, freshman, en- rolled in Oklahoma Methodist University at Guthrie, which later was to be moved to Oklahoma City and event- ually become Oklahoma City University. Frosh William- son was preparing himself for the ministry, and before long he was, in addition to his school work, filling the Meth- odist pastorate at Cashion, Oklahoma. Frosh Williamson had little time to dabble in extra- curricular activities, what with staying on the scholastic honor roll and working his way through school on the slim salary of a Methodist preacher, and what he could earn on odd jobs about the campus. Nevertheless, his college-mates knew what kind of timber was there, for in ,1 5 he served as president of the Student Council, and in '16 was president of the senior class. There was a girl attending O. M. U.-the girl- Dencie Stewart by name, and when, in the fall of '16, O. C55 M. U.'s senior president moved to Boston University, she went along as Mrs. A. O. Williamson. At Boston the young student minister acquired an S. T. B. QBachelor of Sacred Theologyj to add to his A. B. During this year of devout study he filled the pastorate of the Hudson, Massachusetts, Methodist Episcopal church. Next year the young preacher was back in Oklahoma. Although this was his first year out of theological school, he was so highly regarded that he was assigned to the M. E. charge at Shawnee, 1111 important pastorate. For three years he filled this pulpit so ably that his next move was to Blackwell, a still more important church. After two years at Blackwell, Reverend Williamson was made superintendent of the Oklahoma City district, one of the youngest men to hold such a position in the history of state Methodism. His alma mater had watched the rapid rise of this young man and in the spring of 1925 he came back to O.C.U. to receive the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity. Another step up the ladder came in 1926 when Wil- liamson moved to Kansas City, Missouri, to take over the powerful lndependence Avenue M. E. church in that city. Here he stayed for two years before moving to Salina, Kansas, a strong center of Methodism in the Iayhawker state. Here is located Kansas Wesleyan College and the Salina pastor cooperated closely with the college officials in their work. It is possible that this association is largely re- sponsible for his insight into the affairs of college admin- istration, since Kansas Wesleyan is confronted with much the same problems wl1icl1 face O. C. U. VVilliamson came to Wesley M. E. church, Oklahoma City, after four years at Salina. There has always been a close relationship between Wesley and Scarabia. Dur- ing the 1932-33 school year, he was elected to the Uni- versity Board of Trustees, as one of the member represen- tatives of the Oklahoma conference, The following year he was elected president of the Board of Trustees and chairman of its executive council. Dr. Walter Scott Athearn, founder of the Boston Uni- versity school of religious education, was elected by the trustees in June, 1934, to replace Dr. Eugene Antrim as president of the University. During the night of Novem- ber 13, 1934, not two months later, Dr. Athearn died sud- denly ii1 St. Louis, Missouri, while engaged in refinancing O. C. U. Dr. Athearn had launched an ambitious program for the development of the school and his sudden decease seemed the death blow to struggling Scarabia. The Board of Trustees looked about for a man to take his place. QContinued on page 117D oar Silver nniversary Scarab 0 Staff Speaks Your Silver Anniversary Scarab awaits your approval or your rejection as a lot of new-fangled folderol. It is not put together in the style of the usual college yearbook. Neither is it written in the old manner. It is semi-feature style throughout. There is little of the formal or stilted about it. Ir is, however, the record of one college year. ln this it is like other annuals. VVe have attempted to lighten its tone throughout. For instance we have eliminated, for the most part, tire- some histories of the many organizations both social and departmental, and have substituted merely the record of the school year just past. You may think we are poking fun at revered tradition, but we are not. We have given credit where credit is due, but we have made no attempt to give to half-dead organizations an appearance of great- ness. We give you an opportunity to get really acquainted with your faculty. We believe that Professor So-and-So is a personality, not just someone who has been attempting with more or less success to cram knowledge into our more or less unwilling heads. VVe have told you as much about your profs as space will permit. Our class sections are distinctly different. lnstead of a picture of john Iones with a simple list of activities, we have given you john Iones as you have known him and as you will remember him long after college days are past. lf Susie Smith is the extra-curricular activity in which he has been most interested, we see no harm in letting you know about it. VVe have given you your fellow students as you have known them. They are not just so many people, they are personalities with good and bad points, likes and dislikes, just like you. Believing that too much of the same thing palls up- on a reader, we have interspersed the more serious sections of your book with feature articles and feature pictures. We want you to enjoy your Scarab. We thought that we would like a yearbook like this, and since we are stu- dents just like you thought you would like it too. ilu We have made frequent use of cartoons throughout the book, because we wanted nothing stilted in it. As to the arrangement of clubs, fraternities, faculty sections, class sections, etc., we have atteiupted to place them in the most logical positions. Organizations which have grown out of the Liberal Arts department of the University, we have placed together. Then, we have placed those organizations which have grown out of the Fine Arts department together in another section of the book near the Fine Arts facultv section and the Fine Arts building picture. 1 The Greek-letter fraternities and sororities have been arranged alphabetically. We did not consider that the oldest group on the campus deserved first position, nor did we think the newest should be so honored, if indeed it should be considered an honor. Nor did we consider it our duty to attempt to settle disputes about which group really had been founded first. There are three fraterni- ties on the O. C. U. campus each of which claims to be the oldest. VVe did not care about that. The athletic section of the book is as nearly com- plete as we could make it. Complete records are given of all sports which had been finished at the time the Scarab had to go to press. We have placed them in the order of their relative positions on the sports calendar of the school year. Football comes first, then basketball, etc. So much for that Part of your yearbook. Now, just a word about it typographically. VVe have used the latest thing in type faces and in general typographic makeup. We wanted it to be pleasing to the eye. liinally, we did not expect to please everyone. We did want to satisfy as many of you as we possibly could. If you like your book, that's fine. We have done our best, and iuany are the hours we spent doing it. If you enjoy reading it half as much as we enjoyed writing it for you, you are a well pleased student body. Anyway, here it is. emuriam llllilnizt 322111 CEvtli11ia1111 1914 - - - 19315 C63 i rustees Control 0. C. U.

Q fContinued on page 1185 Administration Building I W -urs:-' 0 UIUQI' by i oty Each time we really look at our college tower, there conies 11 prayer that God will speed the men who planned the campus and buildings of Scarabia. During the day this graceful turret is a landmark which may be seen for miles and miles in each direction, Ar night, with soft, white clouds far behind it, and enough of a moon to make it slightly luminous, our tower is tall and strong, yet slender spires, delicate even in hard stone, erase any hint of severity. Some nights there is a light high in the tower and its windows are gold. Students and friends come out into the darkness to look for the light, and if it isvthere they rejoice, for O. C. U. has won victory upon the athletic field. This is the victory signal. The Fine Arts building, with its rich Gothic exterior, is a noble setting for that tall jewel. No other school in the Southwest can point to such stately piles and say, We started from this. These are our first buildings. Nlay every hall that lines our quad of the future match the classic examples of our first two buildings. THE LIGHT IN THE TUWER A SONNET High in the sky a glimmer' of white fire pierces the darkness with a silent shout Of triumph-and a dismal shadowed pyro Of faithlessness, disloyalty, and douht Is gone, and in a hundred watching eyes Shines pride. There is a husky, halting voice, God llless the old school. Call it a snr- prise- We knew shell winf' Even the stars re- joiceg Their flame is whiter for the men who fought A hattleifor the old school. May she gain Always such victories as this night has hroughtg Let not the evening watcher seek in vain. Dark is the sky and desolate the night Which brings no shining slim, white shaft of light. -Hi Doty. img' favs' , it e e ur all g eautuzs fy, ii , 'A' Picked By An Expert ' A ' M i EJ by i Duty 2 ...::.f. e e r ..A --V-., . . 1 Monsieur Pierre Tartoue, sleek Parisian and World- fanious portraitist, smiled when he arrived at Scarabia VVednesday, February 12. This, it will be the great pleasuref, said Monsieur Tartoue, gazing at the eighteen girls from whom he must pick the 1936 Scarab Beauty Queens. Such eyesl Such hair, Such coloringl Ah, they are like the beauties of old France, these exquisite ladies. Pierre knows beauty. Por a score of years he has roamed the world, seeking out feminine charm and catch- ing it, for all time, in oils upon canvas. London knows him, and Shanghai, and New York, and Buenos Aires, and a thousand other places where ladies are fair. ln Wasliiiig- E011 he has painted the grand dames of past administra- tions. In Persia, there sat for him the wife of the Shah, first lady in all Iran. Spain, Germany, India, Russia, Italy, lava, the whole World is his hunting ground and he tramps it continuously, seeking such beauty as should live in oils. But Pierre's day in Scarabia was to present problems. Nlildred Thompson and Kieth Hefley, editor and business manager of The Scarab, had instructed him to rank in order the three most beautiful of the eighteen girls. Por an hour he studied them, then: lt is the impossiblef, he moaned. mlqhey all are so lonely. Six of them I have picked and each is a perfect flowerf, And he indicated Bernice Gatewood, Ruth Hegf gen and Louise VVhite, Kappa Tau Delta, Margaret hlitf chell, l3hi Delta, Sarah lane Stapleton, Phi Phi Phi, and Helen Campbell, Beta Alpha Phi. Six queens, though, were too many. Back went Tar- toue for another hour of judging. He narrowed the field to Nliss VVhite, Miss Nlitchell and Miss Campbell. These threef' said he, uniust come to my studio for, what you call it, the showdown. The party journeyed to his studio in the Huckins Hotel. Pierre produced easel and pencils. Por the entire afternoon he worked with the three, sketching swiftly, studying profiles, posing, photographing. He protested against a final selection but Thompson and Hefley were adamant. Ar last, late in the evening, he announced: First place, Helen Campbell, Beta Alpha Phi, second, Louise Vlfhite, Kappa Tau Delta, third, Margaret Mit- chell, Phi Delta. Significantly, all three of the finalists are brunettes. Of the s.x semi-finalists, five are brunettes. The eighteen candidates, three each from the five campus sororities and from the Barb organization, were Delnioine Clingenpeel, Nlargaret Galyen and Clara Ellison, Alpha Omega, Virginia Hand, Sarah lane Stapleton and Prances Allen, Phi Phi Phi, Margaret Mitchell, Ellen Stewart and Charline Phillips, Phi Delta, Ruth Heggen, Bernice Gatewood and Louise Wliite, Kappa Tau Delta, Helen Campbell, Stella Wliite Owen and Ieanne Frances Hoggard, Beta Alpha Phi, and Maurine McKnight, Indy Holloway and Geraldine Shaw, Barbs. s ZW.

C.

The Scarah was first pulilished in I923. Previous year-hooks had been issued under various names, including The Rambler , and i'The Epworthianf' Student editors and business managers are elected hx' the Board of Publications and appoint their own staffs. The Gold Brick, a humor magazine for O. C. U., made its first appearance in Nlarch, 1936, and was also published in April and lVIay. Although it has no official connection with the University, it is devoted to the inter- ests of O. C. U. and is issued by five Scarabians, Phil Dessauer, editor, l-larry Roberts, business manager, l-li Doty, feature editor, Stan Pate, managing editor, and Vernon Dennis, advertising manager. Other publications of O. C. U. are Ostralton, an oc- casional Poetry journal issued by the Ostralcon Literary Society, The Cklahonia City University Bulleting The Qklalioma Cityan, Scarabias foothall prograing and the C. C. U.

U., has had a number of editors who have since gained fame in the journalistic field. Among the former editors who have gone on in the field are Alwyn K. Fleming, Don Fleming, George Sturm, Harold Dobson, Howard Thornton, who has remained as an assistant professor at O. C. U., a11d Kieth Hefley, now business manager of the Scarab. The size of The Campus has at times been unusually large a11d again at times comparable to a small tabloid, and has varied from I2 pages, its largest, to two, and from 24 to 35 issues a year. It has now returned to thirty-one issues and the five column page. The present staff is under the direction of Hi Doty, editor, who is considered the best material the journalism school has found in several years. Doty is also secretary to the Oklahoma Senior College Press Association, He is assisted editorially, by several associates includ- ing last year's editor, Kieth Hefley, and Paul Bennett, his successor. Stan Pate, sport editor, succeeded Ieff MacDonald in this position after the thirteenth issue, and has kept a steady stream of copy for the ed. Margaret Mitchell and Mary Virginia Elliott handled the society with good grace. Vera B. Hayes, a Fine Arts student, has amply given of her time to represent that school in a column. Phil Dessauer, Oklahoma morgue man, has been tl1e Ustary' of the year, writing subtle features as well as first class news copy. H1 DOTY A, G. Misviaizs Edilnr B115. ilflgr.

Others who worked on The Campus as reporters are Harry Roberts, Vernon Dennis, Dan Paxton, Ozzie Cul- mer, Bonita Carpenter, Nell blcflibony, Marion Buchanan, Clara Nell Smissen, Virginia Estes, Bob Williams, and Bob Spooner. Following the precedent set by Howard Thornton, editor in '33, Hi Doty, editor, stepped aside to let Fresh- man Dan Paxton edit one issue. The business managership was filled capably by A. C. Meyers, and he was assisted at different times by Harry Roberts, Margaret blitchell, and Ben Langdon.

Board of Publications, a joint student- faculty group, supervises the official publications of the university and selects the executives of the student publi- cations, The Campus, weekly newspaper, and The Scarab, yearbook. Traditional members of the board are the editors and business managers of The Campus and Scarab, the presi- dent of the Student Council, and five faculty members ap- pointed by the president of the University. Faculty members this year were Prof. W. P. Atkinson, head of the journalism department, Howard Thornton, journalism instructor, Prof. Peter W. Swartz, business manager of Scarabiag and Prof. E. M. Castleberry, who served as chairman of the board. Student members were Milclrecl Thompson, Scarab editor, Kieth I-lefley, Scarab business managerg I-li Doty, Campus editor, A. G. Meyers, Campus business manager, C235 and Qrville Kline, president of the Student Council. Miss Thompson was elected secretary at the first meet- ing of the year. Faculty members for next year, appointed in April, are Professor Castleberryg lVlrs. Brooks, English pro- fessor, Prof. L. A. jones, registrar, and Thornton. Four, rather than five, members were appointed because the board had previously voted to abolish the Scarab business managership, thus cutting the number of student mem- bers to four. The board approves all contracts having to do with publications and examines all bills before submitting them to the Student Apportioning Board. They also handle all matters pertaining to advertising. Next year a third publication, the Oklahoma Cityan, Scarabian football program, will come under the board,s control. Soul of an rtist by rank Collins Member Ostrrzleon Literary Society Wfalt Carter was self-admittedly the strongest man in Oklahoma county. The ha1'dness of his muscles was ex- ceeded only by the adamant quality of his heart. Con- science, to him, was only a word defined by Noah Weln- ster. W2llf7S proficiency with a revolver was remarkable. He was the proud possessor of a glitering aray of cham- pionship ribbons which he rubbed carefully once a week. The only thing in the world that could change his granite heart to a mellow sandstone was the bonny face of Myrtle Willet. My1'tle was a waitress with yellow hair, that she was considering changing hack to platinum, and feet that could span railroad ties. The most brilliant element of her con- versation was a kittenish giggle. But, to Wlllf, she was the essence of loveliness. Then Willt discovered Myrtle was consorting with a shoe salesman. Walt hovered about their rendezvous for weeks, the canker of jealousy digging always deeper in his heart. One night he took his favorite revolver with him, Wlien his rival appeared, Wzilt took aim and fired. He was shocked to observe that the only apparent damage was that the manls jaunty straw hat whirled from his head. Scarab Staff CContinued from page 215 of the opening page. Van Slayden, southpaw pitcher for the Bugs, did the full page of the caricatures of the baseball team. Also he drew the caricature of UBear,' Rice. The class editors are Eleanor Looney, seniorg Norman Glass, juniorg Nfargaret Mitcliell, sophomoreg and Harry Roberts, freshman. All have given their best in their own inimitable style. Virginia Estes as organizations editor has been given a chance to use her journalistic talents in the way that pleases her the most. She has been most efficient. Nlary Virginia Elliott is in charge of the sororities and fraternities, and has written an unbiased and good section. The section devoted to the student administration was written by Robert lX4ench, an excellent writer in spite of the fact that he is a science major. Paul Bennett, next year's Campus editor, wrote up the faculty section. This part also is written in a unique style. Stanley Pate, sports editor, has covered all the sports thoroughly and was most prompt with his copy. Phil Dessauer with his sketchy and subtle features helps to make the book a record of comedy along with achievements. The publications section is written by Norman Glass, newly elected student council president. Walt fired again and this time saw his target crumplc to the sidewalk. When the policeman arrived panting on the scene, Walt held out his gun, his ten-gallon hat drooping dis- consolately over his face. He impassively watched the handcuffs snap on his huge wrists. Ar the station, he broke a dull silence only to supply his name and address. He seemed in a morose stupor. ln the cell during the days before the trial, he sat limply on his cot, his hands locked on his knees. He let the bristle grow unmolested on his leathery cheeks. Dur- ing meal times, he picked apathetically at his food, disdain- ing to enter into the banter of the other prisoners. When addressed directly, he would stare hlankly at his inquisitor, then ignore him entirely. Everyone in the jail was interested in him by this time and watched his every mannerism. They observed that occasionally he would shake his head back and forth in a pitiful bewilderment. Even the hardened criminals felt for the sorrowing man. At last, his body was wasted to the point of emacia- tion. The officials, alarmed, persuaded Myi'tle to come and assure Walt that she forgave him, that he must perk up, must face his trial like a man. VValt only glared at her when she edged into his cell frightening poor My1'tle who had been preening and basking in her late publicity. She tittered nervously. Gee, Walt, lim awful sorry, she stammered. L'You shouldn't ought to have done it but I forgive you. You gotta--U Wtilt lurchcd to his feet. Say, you don't think l'm pininl about that?l' he bellowed.

A Good Name- HA good name is greater than richesf' goes the proverb. True, and so does a good name lead a business on to success.

UKLAHIJMA CITY FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LUAN AS5'N. THE HONIE touts 125 N. Harvey 2-213 C255 Administration by the Students 'A' Undergraduates Delegated Responsibility y Bob Meneh Th e delegation for responsibility to the many phases -le of a successful uni- versity is vastly in- tricate. These re- sponsibilities a r e given first to the faculty. They are expected to main- tain the various functions necessary to the administra- tion. Wliat a hope- less task that' would be without the invaluable resources as offered by student aid. Oklahoma City University is dedicated to the busi- ness of higher education. Education consists primarily in the acquirement of such higher cultural knowledge as this university is equipped to give. If the resources of the students are not exhausted in this process he is then eligible and justified in soliciting such other responsibility for the betterment of himself and the university of which he is a part as he may see fit. The execution of the responsibilities of student ad- ministration lies in the hands of those outstanding individ- uals whose capabilities justify their positions. The foundation and the heritage of the American people is democracy. Democracy is a doctrine of both means and ends. This, therefore, has been the universal system chosen by American colleges for the election of student leaders. So long as the students did not have a voice in saying who should manage their common af- fairs or any effective appeal against those whom they prob- ably felt were not youthful minded enough, the demo- cratic method, with abundantly good reason, did mean the management of campus affairs by those whom the students themselves choose. This system, like so many other good means, has suffered from those for whom it was intended to help. Factions and selfish interests, dedicated to a worthless ideal, have tended to defeat its satisfactory execution. Popular government and administration is nevertheless, both a good thing in itself and a means to successful accomp- lishments. As a whole the responsibility of the various phases of student management have been successful and highly ef- ficient. A survey of the ways and methods by which activities similar to those at Oklahoma City University are carried on in other universities shows Uklahoma City University to be comniendably efficient. The foundation and manipulation of the student administrations under student leadership has never even bordered on failure. The university is to be congratulated on its dele- gation of all possible responsibilities to the respective groups of student leaders. It should be a coveted pride of the student body that such constructive extra-curricular ac- tivities are existing in their school under student leader- ship. ln spite of criticism of the system at Oklahoma City University, with its combine political machines and elec- tions so hotly contested that temporary animosities are aroused, We are more fortunate at 0. C. U. than are the students at most other colleges, The faculty administra- tion exercises a minimum of interference. The students have at O. C. U. most of, if HOT all of the responsibility delegated to them that is delegated to the students of other similar institutions. On the pages immediately following are accounts of the different student administrative bodies on the campus. W: YW Ur l' fl .. y i 7.4597 Tl -V fi-.:i,. 57.?iW f - -4 's I , 'rf 'u,5.

ELEANOR Osnuiw .,77 PAYE BRAGG ,,C, HThe purpose of the Student Council is to develop self expression and self control on the part of the student body, to promote loyalty to the university, and in particu- lar to have charge of all matters concerning the conduct of the students in their college life, excepting academic activities directly under the control of the administration and things which pertain to the general administrative pol- icy of the schoolf, This shows the council to be a media- tive agent for the best interests of the school between out- side influence and the faculty. It represents a working nucleus of the student body as a whole. As a center of student government the council handles all inter- and intra-scholastic matters that may arise. The usual current business of the council is the con- C275 ,,,,.Pre.vident ...,,,,Vice-President ,,i.,,Secremry .....Trens14rer duction of school elections. These are to be as demof cratic and non-partisan as possible. The Council has been very efficient this year in enforcing such rules as are vital to this type of fair and un-biased election. Voting and counting of ballots is done by an election committee from the Council with the help of a faculty member. Eight members and a president make up the Student Council. The three lower classes elect two representatives in the latter Part of the spring semester, the two freshman members are elected in the early fall. The work of the Student Council is not so much a fluctuating instigator of projects as it is a continuous de- dication to the responsibilities alloted to it in its consti- tutional powers. THE APPORTIONING BOARD an--'-' Divis, Gragg. Hefley, Kline, Boone, Marsh Student Apportioning . oard ORYlI,I.I: Kristi W'n,i .neo Booxii ilihe Student Alwpoi'tioi1i1i5g Board of Uklahoma City Universitv represents as its objective a most democratic purpose, the greatest good to the greatest number. Certain departments and institutions are recognized as necessary to a complete college life. These are nanielyg the Student Council, a periodical campus paper, a vear book and an active Y. VV. C. A. and Y. Nl. C. A. These departments are maintained through the student funds. These funds are handled and apportioned in yearly budf gets from the activity fee which the students pay at the bcginning of each semester. The formation of the Apportioning lloard was the result ot the efforts of Horace Robinson and Victor YVillf ianis, former students. It was originally formed to insure the publication of a year book. As the success of the board became apparent the budgeting of other campus activities was entrusted to the hoard. All of the student fees were put into one activity fee which led to a great ....Cbr11rmf111 .....Serre1m'y simplification of matters. All of the above named activities are now financed tlirough the Student Apportioning board by means of the t t student activity fees. This board was started as an experiment under the close watch of the Board ot Trustees and thc faculty. The books are checked every mouth by a faculty representaf tive. It is the general opinion that more good is given to the greatest number of students by means of this Board. The agencies served by this hoard all Work toward serving the students in their respective capacities. The trust vest- ed in this body is justified and deserved. lVlenibership on this board is held by four students, a president and a secretary, who may or may not be a voting member. lflection by the Student Council gives the members their positions. 4281 ' THE DANCE BOARD . fu.

The answer to this need came in the form of the Student Dance Board. The constitution bears the influ- ence of all the factions interested in the movement. It is probably for that reason that it has been as well pro- pagated as it has. Patience and cooperation on the part of all concerned have made it a prominent success and a solution to an obvious problem. There were, at the outset, many infractions of the rules and by-laws of the Constitution. These were in! vestigated by a committee from the board and if reported C293 serious were referred back ro the hoard and the organiza- tion charged with breaking the rules was given a formal trial. This method was not as satisfactory as it was hoped and the formal trial of an organization was done away with, being replaced by a committee from the board and the faculty who decided to what extent the rules were broken and what should be clone about it. This method is now in use, however there have been no calls made upon it in the past year. The Dance Board this year has been successful in giving all-school dances. These functions have been only an ideal in the minds of several of the members for some time but not until this year have they been successfully arranged.

It business and foundation is service to the university. The instigation and perpetuation of worthwhile movements is its function. The hearty acclaim of faculty and students is the result of its existence. The membership of Blue Kev is chosen from those on the campus who have shown themselves to be construcf tive leaders in their scope of activities. A unanimous ac- ceptance of the members of the fraternity is necessary bef fore any man can be pledged to the organization. The grade average of the candidate must be above the all mens average. New members are usually selected from the juniors or seniors who have already proved themselves leaders. The basic ideals of the fraternity are, a belief in God, a reverence for intellectual attainment, and a dedication to service to the university. Blue Key works in cooperation and harmony with the faculty and administration of the school. Meetirigs with the president of the university and the faculty committees are held when situations of common interests are to be discussed. lvlenibers of this organization are 1110l'C or less char- acterized by the fulfillment rather than the haphazard acceptance of responsibilities. A dinner and business meeting is held every month at which time reports of project committees are received and new business is discussed. Five faculty members are allowed. President Willizinison, Dean Replogle, Dean Brooks, and Dr. Nfaxwell are now faculty members. y C305 i . l A The work of Blue Key has been seen this year in the establishment of an activity hour in which the department- al organizations can hold their meetings. This scheme was devised during the fall semester and put into practice this spring. Such things as the sponsoring of the pep clubs of the school and the Home Coming parade have al- ways been the responsibility of Blue Key. A state convention and subsequent organization of a state council of Blue Key was held April 18 by the Okla- homa City Chapter, Topics and work projects Were exchanged by the delegates from the Durant, Stillwater and Oldahoma City chapters. lX4any helpful suggestions were gained from this convention which is to be an an- nual occurance. Now under consideration by Blue Key is the problem of smoking on the campus and the conduction and re- strictions of school elections. Blue Key has won a high place at O. C. U.

The work of the society is also dedicated to service to the university and the perpetuation of worth- while curriculum on the campus. The chapter was organized in 1933 by the Blue Kev fraternity and has been actively functional ever since. The Oklahoma City chapter is the only one in the south- west. Meiiiberslaip is composed of those active student lead- ers of the school unified to work in harmony for the better- ment of their university.

VVorl4 of the Cardinal Key has been seen this year in the organization of the gills pep club. ln cooperation with Blue Key two senior honors are awarded the most respect- ed graduating senior girl and boy, and the most outstand- ing graduating senior. The revival of the Sphinx club, literary study club, has been one of its major services this year. Several entertainments have been given for out of town barbs this year in order they may enjoy some of the social activities of the university campus. The Cardinal Key has elected Miss lVIary Harris as its faculty member. Other members of the faculty associat- ed with the society are: Dean Nlisener as honorary spons- or and Nliss Ruby VVortham as faculty representative. Reformation of url Castle by rank Collins Zllember Ostmleon Literary Society The water was over the second story windows. The swirling, roaring current was tugging with a frenzied abandon at the foundations of the house. Each moment seemed the last. Earl Castle stared with frightened, panicky eyes at the rioting flood waters and thought of how it would feel to drown. The water would catch him with mus- cular, smothering arms, toss him with feline ferocity from one wave to the next, then he would-go under. His mouth would fill with black water, his nose would choke and strangle-he would struggle in wild futility. Earl slammed his fist down upon the shingled roof. Damn it, l donit want to die,'l he wailed. He turned toward his wife who was seated by the side of his mother. His eyes, muddy-white, and flecked with red lines, flick- ered with fright. His wife returned his stare placiilly. She said noth- ing. Her lined g1'ay face was submissive, unresisting. She seemed patiently awaiting her fate. She was looking at her husband's dark, shriveled face, contorted now with hor- rified dread. She saw now as almost a stranger. Now, when she seemed hovering momentarily between life and death, his skulking, peering eyes, his thick, flabby lips were only repugnant objects to be viewed with dispassionate shrinking. Earl, deriving no comfort from his wife, began com- muning with himself. He tilted his fascinated gaze away from the menacing waters. He was thinking beyond his imminent death. Now, now, he was thinking of his ulti- mate destination in another world. As long as life had moved in its accustomed, mundane, cycles, Earl's thoughts were concerned with unspiritual things: with shrewd, even Greetings L0 O. C. U.

MERsFEi.Di3ii GUY SPENCER BILL MOORE unscrupulous bargaining, with waspish exasperation at his wife, sometimes with an unreasoning anger. Now, he was faced with something that lay behind a thick opaque curtain . . . an unfathomable something. That curtain might open to disclose it. Nol Why, heid lived a good life, a useful one. Sure he had. He might have made a few mistakes, he might have made a few decisions that were just a little unjust- but he couldn't be condemned on those, The time when he had sold the Nlakin farm . . . Edna had wanted him to buy her a washing machine with part of the money. He had been a little rough in his refusal-he refused now to think of how he had turned on her and upbraided her for not being satisfied, he refused to think of his surly sneers and taunts for days after- ward. But, he had just wanted to save the money. Right now it was in the bank, collecting four per cent interest. Edna shouldn't have always been thinking of her personal comfort. After all, one had to lay aside a nest egg. Earl glanced down at the water. It seemed to snarl at him in fiendish expectation. He gulped. Well, maybe he had been wrong, he admitted handsomely, Perhaps he had treated Edna a bit callously. Yes, if he ever got Ollt of this alive, he'd buy her a good machine-the best on the marketgsecond-hand maybe. The house rocked. The whole structure creaked and groaned as if in its death throes. But after a moment it settled back on its foundation. Earlls earlier life whirred by in sizzling, disconnected reels. As he felt malignant oblivion ogling him, he was less reluctant to admit his misdemeanors. The time when he had kicked Tommy Critchlow's puppy to death on the Fourth of Iuly . . . Old man Critchlow had given him a verbal lashing which Earl had grudgingly accepted. After all, the pup had torn his best pair of pants. There wasn't any sense of Tommy's taking on so. The pup hadnlt cost him anything. It had been given to him. Why-Earl glowed with righteous warmth-why, he had given Tommy a dime to spend in any way he wanted to. But the fool kid had struck it from his hand and dragged away, sobbing as if his heart would break. The time when Edna bought a new fur coat with- out asking his permission . . . Earl could see now that he had been wrong in making her send the coat back . . . wrong, too, in depriving her of spending money for a year. Yes, he confessed to himself, he had been wrong.

'aye ln the-fall of 1931, 118 eager, aspiring, yeal even in- spiring freshmen entered the welcoming portals of O. C. U. This class, the largest heretofore to enter the universi- ty, determined to Ngo places and do thingsf' and they did. Their first step was to elect Vayle Harrison as presi- dent a11d under his leadership they had on tl1e scene of conflict during the an1111al lireshman-Sophomore fight twenty men whose motto was L'Do or die. The boys put up a noble fight but despite the fact that the boys were fighting hard for the honor of their class, we lost. As this class is noted for its outstanding accomplishments we wish to add that never 111 the history of O. C. U, was there such a splash as when the Gardner brothers hit the pond. XVe, as Freshmen, chose Gertrude Lloyd as our Freshnian Queen. Since then, she has quit Ulll' ranks, married Paul Beach Llllll now lives in Blackwell. The last semester was spent i11 working hard and making excellent Class of '36 Pllgg grades. So ended the year of Y32. ln the fall of 1933 after getting together and counting our number, now reduced to 84, we chose Vayle Harri- son as the one to lead 11s out of the shadows. This year was marked by the fact that there were three I-Iarrisons elected presidents of the freshman, sophomore and junior classes. And this, niy friends, was the time when We learned about politics. It was Orville Kline's first year at O. C. U. We had but lately been unsuspecting freshmen and the upperclassmen swooped down upon us like prey- ing buzzards. That year We helped to elect three Scarab Queens and would have elected more but happily tl1e year ended. Ill the fall of 1934, we found that Orville Kline had learned well l1is lesson in politics, so we elected him presi- dent. We were sixty strong that year and threw our- QContinued on Page 395 4385 sis - - - and - - - siris Duuivunt illhe highest honors that Inav come to a member of the junior class are those of Isis and Osiris. The terms Isis and Osiris are taken from the Egyp- tian names of Fgylmtian god and goddess, who stand for learning. These carry out further the theme of Oklahoma City University. Selected this vear as winners of the honors are Eleanor Uunivanr and James Vanderpool. Miss Dunivant is a Vanderpool mathematics major, Vanderpool is a science major. I-Ie is a memher of the Phi Chi Phi fraternity. Osiris, the uffollege Nlarshallfl and Isis will lead the senior procession in all the graduation. INIiss Dunivant will he given the key to the golden Scarab which is kept in the trophy case. The honor is awarded on the basis of scholarship on- ly. The winners are chosen automatically hy the faculty. Senior islory -,eh es whole heartedly into electing Iylildred Thompson as Campus Queen. Virginia I-land and George lX'Ieador were chosen as Isis and Osiris and so well did they function during the senior festivities that many wondered if they themselves were not seniors. But then the entire class was marked by a certain dignity that set them apart from others. In the fall of 1935, the band of Pioneers gathered to- gether and counted noses to see how many of the original 128 had survived the cruel tortures. 'Iihere were exactly 573. Cecil lXIcDaniel was chosen to lead the weary band in the last great struggle. I-le had been football captain C .Sv D the year before and We figured he had what it tookf' Orville Kline, still a politician, was elected President of the Student Council. Iirna Baker was chosen Scarab Queen and trudged down the long aisle to be crowned by Kieth Hefley. And as one freshman whispered to another, It looked like a real Wedding. The student body was called upon to select the most respected seniors, and since they couldnt select everyone in the senior class, lXIerle Robinson and Nile NIontgoniery were decided to be the ones best suited for that role. And so it is with much weeping and wailing and tear- ing of hair and applause and cheering from the faculty sec- tion that we close our fourfyezu' history at O. C. U. and bid our friends and classmates goodbye.

Cruel fate may rob him of those carefree, winning ways, that form divine, that handsome mush, but nothing can steal away his dreams. Let us go back with him to- --The night of February 28, 19363 the Fine Arts au- ditorium of Oklahoma City University. It is Leap Week, that annual period of female dominance upon the Scarab- ian campus, and this is HX Night. Lightsl Miisicl Gay laughterl All of O. C. U. Qor all who could get dates5 are here to pay homage to-here he comes down the passage-Cleodns Beavers, Royal Ram of O. C. U., king for a week. Attendants and escorts precede him down the aisle. A talebearer carries his train. And beside him, blushing with pride, is his queen consort, Zelma Rice. They mount the stage and ascend the throne. The music stops. A crownbearer appears and hands his precious burden to the Queen. The king is trembling, but she, firmly and care- fully, lifts the crown and plants it upon his thick and well- muscled head. The crowd goes wild. The king beams. --Ah, the glory of that moment, the sweet bliss of itl Court jesters appear, and minstrels, and strolling players. For his majestyls pleasure, they entertain, and all of Scara- bin sits listening, applauding each sharp sally and each sweet tune upon the dulcimer. King for an evening, you say? But nol King for two evenings. Comes another night and the annual Leap Week Ball. King Cleodus is there to reign in all his splendor. I-le deigns to dance, and beauteous maidens vie for his attentions. All evening he is the center of an ad- miring bevy. Proud ladies seek his eyes. But time flies on the wings of ecstasy. The clock strikes twelve. The maidens turn away. King Cleodus doffs his ermine and stands in laborerls attire. l-lis reign is ended, No longer does he rule Scarabia. But ah, those tender memories. 3 Q ' ,Neg A: k rj Leap Week was first introduced to Scarabia lasr year, when it was sponsored by the Student Council. The Oklahoma City newspapers, as well as O. C. U. stoo- ges, liked the idea so well that it received a great deal of publicity. Nluch of this went out over AP and UP wires and the whole nation learned of the week of petticoat gov- ernment. As a result, several other universities inaugur- ated it this year. Leap Week opened Friday, February 24 when the O. C. U. women went to the polls to choose the Royal Ram. Men were not eligible to vote. The candidates had been nominated the previous week by the Pan-Hellenic council and included Don Dow, Delta Psi Omegag Wendell Langston, Barb, Bill Beasley, Theta Kappa Nug Truman Evans, Phi Chi Phi: and Beavers, Kappa Phi. Beavers supporters swept the field and the handsome halfback was elected. That night campus fraternities held open house for the girls. Revenge was the motif. Men in the reception line and pledge line were instructed in the dead fish handshake, made famous by sorority receiving lines. The femmes had their revenge, too, going from one open house to another and eating at all of them before picking up their dates. Everyone adjourned to Marslils where the girls paid the checks. Rules for Leap Week, announced in Ianuary by Iohn Rose and Iimmy Lefler, committeemen, included Q15 a lady must call at the home of her date and must escort him from the door to the car, or to the cab which she has providedg Q25 The girls must pay all billsg Q35 ln case of car trouble, all repair work must be done by the girlg Q45 Girls must take boys to the door when showing them home and any goodnight osculation must originate with the former, and Q55 girls must not offer to compromise and go i'dutch.n Wednesday night the girls paid the bills at an all- school line party to the Criterion theatre for 'lFollow the Fleet, starring Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. Approxi- mately 150 Scarabians attended. Thursday night was re- served for sorority functions and the hostesses furnished transportation and money. Pedro Luna, O. C. U. student from the Phillippines, suggested the Friday X Night program, explaining that there is a similar custom among his island friends. The program Was kept secret.

K My if His Real Name Is Reo Rice. if lr a :fi S P ' Thai Meet Bear,' Rice, campus handyman, grounds man- ager, slavedriver, iconoclast, muleskinner and master of the manly oath. Meet the man who makes the welkin ring. His real name is Reo Rice but to Scarabia he is the Bear.3' On a quiet afternoon when shouted maledictions come rumbling over the campus, stooges lolling on the lawn or hanging out the biology lab windows know that Old Growlern Rice is cursing his NYA workers and all's right with the world. The conventionalities and amenities of life have small meaning for the 'ABear. He rules his hardy little band of campus employees with an iron hand and a vitriolic tongue. His vocabulary is an awesome thing and, as to epithets, seemingly inexhaustible. Oral obscenities are, indeed, the Bear's', means of demonstrating affection. He ucussesn most that which he loves the most. By this token, the really great loves of his life are lack and Ienny, two mules grown gray in the service of Oklahoma City University. Their usual expressions indicate that life for lack and Ienny is a drab, wearisome affair. They exhibit a strange mixture of futility and bored defiance. But that is when the 'kBear is away and they are in the hands of some unsympathetic freshman. Let the old lVlaestro return to hurl sizzling epithets at them and they lay back their ears contentedly, switch their spike tails and pull to beat old by Hi oty Billy Hell. Here is a man who knows the soul of a mule. Sometimes, when no one is about, the A'Bearl' does unaccountable things, performs little acts of charity. Some, seeing him do a good turn on the sly, get the idea that the old man is a little soft underneath, that his bellowing is sham, that his growls are meant to mask a kind heart. If you are one of those who believe this drivel, keep your foolishness to yourself. lnsinuate to him that there's aught but cold, cold granite in his heart and the Bear'll have the hide off ye. Meiition some little deed of kindness he has performed and helll break out in a violent rash, lash you with his tongue, and publicly expose your ancestors for a dozen generations. And that's no idle threat, for the Bears, longest suit is the blackening of family names. He'll cell you things you never knew about Grandpa. The UBearU is a jack-of-all-trades and, unorthodoxly, master of many. He can build almost anything out of almost nothing. Woiiltl you like a sundial, a rowboat, a rustic stone bench, a bookcase, a fishpond, an easy chair, a fountain. He can build it. Perhaps the slim lines of classic beauty are absent but By-, there the--thing is, - f- her, and there she'll sit, -7 her, when some of these bottle-nosed, flat-headed, -Y--, professors have got the gongfl as the Bear remarked when some brash soul criticized the aesthetic value of his fishpond fountain. ore Class of 1938 Earl Smith . . . a member of Delta Psi Omega . . . the leader of yells who canlt make up his mind with whom to go.

C645 est on e Campu 99 by orrnan Glass VVC titled this article the best on The Campus, mean- ing, of course, fl-low could you miss D. Pun, Ozziej the best on the paper entitled The Campus. Boy is this part wrotten. The first issue, number, or copy that interests us was number I3 fLuck or Pj in this we see first off, Ozzie Culmer, Kenneth Warren, fand one of the profsj who have stripped or half stripped Bill Kent, and are making scientific tests on his personality. This in the vernacular of the 4th Estate is known as art, but boy is it rong. This was the best issue of the Campus I'll have you know. Besides the above there was a biographical sketch of Peter W. CPinch-Pennyj Swartz by Paul Bennett fwho was asking for an AU, I'll wagerj and it was also accom- pained by a piece of art, the Visage of P. W. in person. On the next page of this stalwart number was Gold- buggyw by Freddie Nfarsh, entitled by the byfline, Guess Artist fsome tvpesetters these boysj and then across the page we saw that modern Colossus Of Versatility, or lim james Hayes, who in this picture is a puppeteer. This page by the way is given over to Ostrakon, the only hone orary productive literary fraternity, who have filled the page with such as this: To OSTRAKON There gathered those who were sober, To read poetry and say boo Like a senate prober. -,,??????,, Bov even Kamitchis should be in a dither of envy over the above poem. Ou the back page we find a lot of stuff written by Stan Pate. He describes various, divers, and sundry sports events: example: Bridges and Rentfro stumbled over two lads and then shot one hand baskets, to tie the game and then Delmar XVade kicked the uinpire to get an extra shot to win the game. -f un But the IDOSt interesting of the various editions is number 2.3, of Miva Politics P11111 flllllilffliln fame, boy this one wowed them, it printed a vow signed by everyone from Faye Bragg to less ldrouterhouse, including hdildred Thompson, VVendell Burba, and Virginia Hand. It goes on to tell of an elimination contest that is strictly on the up and up. Boy and it was. ln this same edition we see secret passions revealed by Virginia Fstes, not that they were secret, but you know other persons didn't know about it. The secret passions were Lowrey for Tuttle, Gail Peck for hdartha hlathis, Gragg for Elizabeth lVlcNeese. But 1 donlt see a thing secret about any of these. fContinued on page 7115 ore About rosh Louis Van Wye . . . keeps us in the dark as to his abilities. Edward Vicarv . . . drives a good looking car.

Presentingu ll e Greeksv 4-ai rv The Pan Hellenic and Inter-fraternity Councils are the governing groups for the rules and activities of all sororities and fraternities on the campus. This has not been a very stormy year for these organizations with the exception of the grand row that the Inter-fraternity Council had when the Delta Psis pledged nine boys before the alloted time for second semester pledging. D. Brown and Billie Davis got in quite a stew over the matter, but the irony of it all was that there wasn't any rule in the constitution which had been broken and so-ofo some new rules had to be made to take care of this major offense when it happens next year. This is a cus- tomary occurrence in the life of these organizations-a row, a rule, then a rearrangement of the old rule. But Virgil Downing tells us that things are going to be different next year. He has written a new constitution which does away with this heltcr-skelter noon day fraternity pledging. NothinUys ha ened in Pan Hell this fear, there has iw PP A P not been a single fight, at least not yet, said Ieanne Frances Ho ard, resident of the women's council. The main gg P event of the council this year was the rush tea given Iuly 26, at the Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club, for the purpose of acquainting prospective students with the social life at O.C.U. This event marked the be innin of oven g S I rush which is under the direction of the Pan Hellenic Coun- cil. Candidates for the Royal Ram contest, one boy from each fraternity, and one independent, were chosen by the Pan Hellenic members. The main function of the Inter- fraternity Council was the direction of inter-fraternity sports: basketball, baseball, wrestling, tennis, and track. N l by Mary Virginia Elliott Inter-frat and Pan Hellenic l Councils The council awarded a silver loving cup to the fraternity finishing highest in all five sports. Ilan Hellenic council membership is made up of two girls from each of the five sororitics on the campus. Inter- fraternity council is composed of three members from each of the four fraternities.

All of- fices in the OH Club are filled Cand what we mean, filledj by Kappa Phis. No wonder, they have fourteen members -quite a majority, don't you know. These officers are john Anderson, president, Morris Newman, vice-president, Trapper Talley, secretary-treasurer, and Harry Wade, Waver of the Wand. Nim Newberry, smiling quarter-back, was chosen All -State Quarterback, and five men have been on the state collegiate championship baseball team for two years, New- berry, Newman, Talley, Eronterhouse and Olvey. In inter-fraternity sports Kappa Phi won the wrestling and basketball tournaments. From these observations you gather, by now, that these fellows are A-I athletes. .ucbaplain By far the most famous Kappa Phi is Bevo, forma ally know as Cleodus Beavers. QBut who knows him form- allyj. He's a good athlete, a grand actor, and a clever writer. He combines brain and brawn. His popularity won for him the title of Royal Ram, and boy, were his frat brothers proud of him! Cecil McDaniel, the boy with the bashful smile, is president of the senior class, secretary-treasurer of O club and Blue Key secretary. 'LPete,' Glass, booster for Kappa Phi and Norman Glass, is president of the junior class and Dance Board, Yell-O jacket vice-president and pledge master, mem- ber of Press Club, Blue Key, and Beta Upsilon Sigma. He writes features for The Campus and Scarab, and is junior class editor on the latter. Ozzie', Culmer, the lad who gets so much noise out fContinued on page 725 DELTA PSI OMEGA The Campus, which they hold in the palm of their hand, is under the able supervision of absent-minded Hi Doty. Thanks to Margaret Mitchell he has improved ioo per cent in his manners and appearance this year. Take your bow, Hi, we're all for you. Kieth incorporated, as his following has so aptly dubbed him, is business manager of the Scarab this year and 'columnist on The Campus staff. He is a B.M.O. C. Eor you readers who are not versed in our said lang- uage, the above title translated would read a big man on the campus. If you have any doubt about this title, just ask Erna and she will set you right. Self-satisfied Anthony George Meyers, jr., is business manager of The Campus. His favorite pastime is gazing fondly in the mirror and saying, lt's funny how all the girls fall for this spiffy uniform. Pate is sports editor of both The Campus and Scarab. He never misses the opportunity of telling you of his posi- tion on The Daily Oklahomanf' The presidency of Yell-O jackets has cost me five hours of li sics, roans Kenneth Woodard, secretar - P Y g Y treasurer of the Dance Board. Kenneth, also sophomore president, thinks that he bit off more than he could chew this ear. Ma bee so-o-0. Y Y After Kenneth comes Willie. That huge black book which Wee Willie Boone carries around with him is to impress the freshmen with his secretarial ability. He is secretary of Apportioning Board, Beta Upsilon Sigma, and Delta Psi Omega. Boone is also junior class vice-president. C715 Big shotu Kline has set a new precedent this year by receiving the greatest amount of Uboozen and ap- plause, as prexy of the Student Council. Kline is also the mighty hand that propels the importantf?j business of the Apportioning Board. The pre-medic department is simply overrun with Delta Psis. The brainy member of this unpretentious group is Bill Maril who makes all A's, drat him, and is a basketball star. Others who seek to follow in his rather huge footsteps are Keith Kelly, with his bugs, Fay Lester, jimmie Brown, Doug Yeager, and Elmwood, oh, I mean, Elwood Heilman. The mellow voice of Charles Thigpen and the talent- ed brush of Rex Waldron won for the fraternity first place in Freshman Stunt Nite. Rex, by the way, designed the cover of this literary publication. QNot a paid Adj Ted Bridges, another basketball star is treasurer of the senior class. Delta Psis in Student Council are Bill Maril, sopho- more representative, and Phil Dessauer, feaure writer for The Campus and Scarab, freshman representative. Kenneth Woodard, Willie Boone, Kieth Hefley, Or- ville Kline, A. G. Meyers, Fay Lester, and Gus Hanson are members of Blue Key, of which Hanson is vice-presi- dent.

They are the fellows who always fail to come out to basket ball or football practice, whichever the case might be. Virgil Downing, the most important member of this chapter, so he distinctly told us, is a new Blue Key member president of Inter-fraternity Council, vice-president of Beta Upsilon Sigma, and a member of Pi Gamma Mu. Bob Mench, while not entertaining Mildred Redding, will be found in the chem lab utterly oblivious of every- thing in general. He is vice-president of the senior class, and secretary of Tri Beta. Proud Fred Marsh is secretary and treasurer of Blue Key and Yell-O Iackets and a member of the Inter-frater- nity Council, Apportioning Board and College Players. He had one of the leads in the play, 'KThe Foolf' Another outstanding personality is Orville Sherman, president of College Players, and the lead in their recent production The Fool. Glen Waggonner also gave a sup- erb performance in this presentation. Bill Davis, librarian and history major, seems to be the only one who has enough interpidity to tell Orville Kline where to get off. He holds membership in the Apportion- ing Board, Dance Board and International Relations Club. Sanford Palmer is the fraternity's debater, being pre- sident of Pi Kappa Delta. His brother, Donald is very rarely seen without his camera as he has a decided weak- ness for snapping pretty girls. Members in Blue Key are Fred Marsh, Sanford Pal- mer, Bob Mench, Virgil Downing, and Dean Fred Rep- logle. Most outstanding and best liked Phi Chi is undoubt- edly Dean Replogle, new Dean of Liberal Arts. KAPPA TAU DELTA show. Martha caused too much of a stir over her choice of her attendant and her kidnapping, but excitement was apropos as things were getting dead about that time. Louise White received second place in the Beauty Queen contest. Erna Baker was selected the 1936 Scarab Queen. Tiniest but mightiest Kappa Tau is Tommie Thomp- son, Scarab editor, vice-president of Cardinal Key and Press Club, secretary of Board of Publications, Campus re- porter, whose name will appear in Who's Who in Ameri- can Collegesf, Also active in journalism is Mary Virginia Elliott, Press Club member, associate-society editor of The Campus, Scarab greek organization editor. Mary V., who is al- ways griping about how much she has to do, is also vice- president of Lady Bugs, secretary of Sphinx Club, and member of Cardinal Key. Viola Hatfield, new Cardinal Key, is president of International Relations, treasurer of Pan-Hellenic, Dance Board representative, and Pi Gamma Mu member. Sorority actresses are Ruth Heggen and Pat Cassady, those two inseparables. Both are College Players. Ruth is the most convincing prevaricator that the school has had for years. She has won countless debates by having the knack of verisimilitude fwhich Mrs. Brooks tells me is the wholesale art of lyingj. Other officers in various campus organizations are Vera B Hayes vice-president of Sigma Alpha Iota, trea- surer of Piano Club, and Campus Fine Arts Editor, Mar- tha Mathis, secretary of International Relations, Virginia Sanders treasurer of Kindergarten Club. A Greek Tragedy by Phil Dessauer Detective Smirk was baffled. I-Iere he was, on the first really BIG case of his career, and he was stumped. It was a bitter, cruel woild, he reflected. For how was he to know who the devil swiped the bowl of chili from the Goldbug? And where the heck was a motive? 'KWhat do ya think, pal: he asks. How ya spell it?', After some deliberation, our master-minds narrow the field down to ten suspects. Truman Evans, Don Palmer, and Virginia Metz are standing at the counter, and Mary Clare Evans is standing nearby. Next in order, Linder the tables, are Swee'pea', Graham, Miller Hayes, Charlene Phillips, Wenclell Burba, Willartl Boone, and Viola Hatfield.

Owen Gragg looked up at her and said, Toots, for you I'd vote for anybody. Pete Kamitchis bounded 11p to the polls, glared at Kline and Montgomery, looked over the ballot for a barb candidate and not seeing one stomped off kicking some Tri Phis out of the way. Kieth Hefley walked into the voting room, came back out, and showed his fellow plotters the key to the ballot box. We got it in de bag, boysfl Up comes Hanson from ,X Jw :A A .

Behind the other's backs each tore up the oppositionls ballots. And as everybody knew before another election had to be held. Phil Dessauer suggested that to avoid this inevitable second election on the ballot there be places to vote in both elections. This plan is being seriously considered on its relative opportunities for cheating. THETA KAPPA NU Owen Gragg, Oscar Brown, Nile Montgomery and Iohn Rose are Blue Key members. ln the pre-medic department are Ernie Miller, Dick Brightwell and Bill Beasley, the fraternity wit, who al- though usually called the school shiek, has done very little to deserve this title as he seldom dates any campus beau- ties. If you want to get him ruffled just call him Beezle.'l Theta Kappa Nu is represented in Beta Upsilon Sigma by Roy Bryant, Nile Montgomery, Gordon Hall and Neil Ashlock. Preston Smith and Owen Gragg are both members of the Apportioning Board. In Pi Gamma Mu are Nile Montgomery, lack Per- kins, Roy Bryant and Wendell Burba. l79l The combines are clicking noisilyg the halls are crowd- ed with little groups of people whispering excitedly, Barbara Field and Charline Garrison watch each other care- fully to see that neither gets a vote ahead of the other, it's election day at O. C. U. On each side of the men's faculty room stands a furtive looking crowd of crooked politicians. On his side Fred Marsh is saying, HIE they win we'll protest it,', while Ieanne Frances Hoggard tries to get the election lists to add a few names. Busily yessing Fred are Billie Davis, Helen Snipes and Mildred Redding. ln the same group Viola Hatfield and Mildred Thompson watch Orville Kline on the other side of the hall. HIYHI telling you this candidate is backed by the Lea- gue for Better Student Government, says Kline to a barb while Ozzie Culmer stands by to twist his arms if he still refuses to vote. Willie Boone and Kenny Woodard are busy figuring for the hundredth time the number of votes in each combine. Pete Glass looks in vain for the other Kappa Phi pledge as the first two have already voted. Faye Bragg and Zelma Rice watch Ieanne Frances closely. 0n The Calnpusv fContinued from page 65D The best Goldbuggy of the guess artistll series was Paul Bennett, and his column was, I think, the best of all for the simple reason he hit all, Hi and low, from Dickey to Kramer, and had a country weekly section also. Along we come to editorials, and I believe the one by Fil Dessauer and one of Vote To-dayl' by Hiram Elemual P. Doty were the best of the crop as editorials go. The IHOSI peculiar head of the group, and Kieth will agree is the following: 'KSLUMBERING O. C. U. POLITICS SHOW LIFE AS APPORTIONING BOARD GETS MEMBERS ln the same edition a M.

For instance those girls interestetl in kintlergarten work, can tliscuss the re- lative advantages anal tlisatlvantages of the various ways to raise- -beg parclon--rear chiltlren. Some of the organizations are purely honorary, antl have a somewhat smaller membership than those of less clifficult requirements. Some are national antl some local with the hope of becoming national. A clifferent style has been usecl this year in writing up the organizations, giving very little of the history antl citing only the plans ancl accomplishmeiits of the year. Some thrive and some struggle-antl to those thriving We give a pat on the back ancl to those struggling we give a push.

Since its founding here in H322 it has grown to international proportions. The society has a three-fold purpose: stimulation of a high standard of scholarship among undergraduate stu- dents of hiology, clissemination of scientific knowledge, and the promotion of research. ln formal meetings, papers are read or discussions of biological sulwjects are held, hut in social meetings all of the skeletons are put hack in their respective family closets. Tri Beta was organized on the campus of O. C. U. in Iozz. In 1925 the organization grew to national pro- portions. Doctor Brooks was elected national secretary and has served in this position since that time. There are three chapters of Tri Beta in China. These are located at Yenching University, Soochow University, and Shanghai College. The purpose of hoth branches is to promote hetter understanding and constructive coopera- tion hetween the two continents and races. Bios, the journal of Beta Bela Beta is edited quarterly hy Doctor Brooks. The magazine is devoted to thc in terests of the fraternity and the pulvlieation of articles of general interest to hiologists. This year's pledges are working on papers on hiological topics for entrance in a national contest. Vllith his usual modesty, Doug Yeager expects to win, In Nlarch the major social event of the organization's year, the spring initiation hanquet, is held. Another major event of the year, though not purposely social, is the weekls trip to the Arbuckles. Although this trip rates a suspicious amount of anticipation it is con- ducted for the purpose of learning-fahout rocks and hugs. Tri Beta plans to take in two honorary meiuhers from the doctors or prominent men of the city this year to keep Dr. Frank C. Brooks company. The members of this organization are easily distinf guished from the other less intelligent students hy their presence in the Coldhug once every hour all afternoon. They are usually dressed in more or less whxte garments worn mainly for the purpose of trying to look important. wo THli 1956 DliliATliRS Glass af Arric ' 5. f Cassaclv 'sw Heggau Palmer s i 'Q , A e, if Kline .

Wlieii asked the purpose of the organization Merle Robinson said Cnot for publicationb live often wonderedf, And later Cfor publicationj 'lThe purpose is to foster the Christian attitude, to create a better spirit of fellowship on the campus, and to create an interest in economic and social aspects of the world as a wholef, This group holds a different type of meeting each week in the month. Once a month they have a social meeting, once a commission meeting. One meeting a month is devoted to worship, and one to a student forum. The student forums promote some very hot discussions of such subjects as campus politics, Creek organizations, and compulsory ,chapel attendance. At one of these student forums Peter Kamitchis read a paper on campus politics, emphasizing his remarks by glowering at Pete Class, Willie Boone, and Kenny VVoodard at the end of each sentence. The three politicians had come to the meeting for the express purpose of hearing what he would say, and went away happy. The Student Christian lVIovement has sent delegates to religious conferences at Mempliis, Indianapolis, and Tulsa. It plans to send ten or fifteen students to the young peoples summer camp at I-Iollister, lVIissouri, this spring. That short-lived organization, the Veterans of Future Vxfars with the women's auxiliary was brought to the O. C. U. campus under the leadership of this group. The organization has accomplished some very worth- while things this year, having brought such speakers as Paul Wezivt-r to the chapel programs. Considering that it is handicapped by being a Christian organization the Student Christian Movemeiit does remarkably well. The Student Christian IVIovement has some outstand- ing members. Among them Charles Thigpen of Road to IVIandalay,U HClory Road, and Tri Phi fame, Iohn Rose, the super-diplomat, Wilma lean Cethman, pacifist of the first degree, and Ieff IVIcDonald whom no one can keep from talking. phinx Club OFFICERS Reisuie.-x I-IARRISON IVIAReAi:E'1' MITCHIEU, Maier' VIIQGINIA ELI.I0'I 1' FRANCES WATKINS .. .... ..

The members are supposedly the intelligentsia of the campus and although most of them hide it around school they apparently enjoy good books, lflowever, before the sponsors arrive they have occasional discussions over topics definitely not literary. VVe have always suspected that the very good refresh- ments served at the beginning of each meeting is a solid reason for joining.

Nlembersliip in Sphinx is open to all girls interested in good literature. Those wishing to join are required to attend one meeting before they are voted in as members. Nleetings have been held regularly this year. Book reviews and lectures have been given by Mrs. Brooks, lVlrs. lX4arable, Dean lN4isener, Alberta Constant and other prominent reviewers. A Christmas Party was held in the Oriel Room at which time gifts were exchanged. The interest shown in the organization has been enf couraging to the members of Cardinal Key who instigated the organization. Three initiation services have been held this year and the club has a good start toward a lively and successful organization next year. wo KINDITRGARTEN CLUB W,-up .ami- '- 1. fs ff.

Their dual purpose is to further creative writing and to prove that poets and writers are not all eccentrics. Membership is restricted to those who have literary ability. The members must hand in some form of writ- ing to be criticized and discussed at each of the weekly meetings. In the words of the president, Pete Kamitchis, they are pledges until they fork over a dollar. The work of this group this year would fill two volumes with original prose and poetry. Some of their work is found in The Campus in Ostrakon Corner which the rest of the student body tries in vain to understand. And by keeping their hair cut and being able to talk quite rationally about other subjects the members have proved that a person may write and still be human. Of course, there are a few odd members such as Norman Glass whose exterior distinctly does not conform with the poetry he writes. Ostrakon brought Edwin Markham to speak here this year. That, in itself, is sufficient reason for the ex- istence of any group. Because of the interest of all the members in one ob- jective, Ostrakon is a thriving organization, one to which everyone cannot belong.

C. . as Modern ine Arts uilding ir Gothic Structure Houses Department The Fine Arts building, dedicated in 1929, is one of the most nearly perfect examples of Gothic architecture in Gklahoma City. The building is a modern, fire-proof structure con- taining eighteen studios, a little theater, an auditorium with a seating capacity of I400, and a stage with ample equip- ment for the productions of the dramatics department. The carpeted music studios are sound-proof and ac- coustically treated to prevent echo. The art studios have sky lights for soft lighting and are equipped with a supply of casts as well as drawing tables, easels and lockers. There is a ceramics studio in the basement with complete equip- ment. Beneath the stage of the auditorium is the dramatic arts department, including a fully-equipped little theatre, classroom, departmental office and a long li11e of makeup tables and mirrors. Photographs of Scarahian dramatics and scenes from 0. C. U. plays cover the walls, The Fine Arts department is considered one of the finest in the Southwest. It is complete in every depart- ment, music, art, and dramatic arts. The dramatic arts department is well known through- out the state. Its fame has spread with the production of many O. C. U. plays in various parts of the state. The music department gives instruction in every phase of music. Instruction is given in voice, piano, violin, cello, and other phases. The electronic organ, which was given to the school as the memorial of the senior class of 1936, will afford opportunity for study of this instru- IHCIIIC. Art work is offered in all fields, oil painting, charcoal, leather tooling, pottery, sculpturing, designing, and lec- ture eourses in the history of art. A Preparatory department is maintained in the Col- lege of Fine Arts i11 which excellent instruction 111ay be obtained for beginners and for those of pre-college age in piano, voice, violin, band and orchestral instruments, harp and expression.

The school off ficials waited a little while and when they saw the boys were good took them in hand. They have accomplished quite a lot towards making the Fine Arts department well known. The quartet has sung before the Chamber of Com- merce, the Rotary Club, the various men's dinner clubs, and in churches as well as oII school programs. Under the ehaperonage of Professor Kanady they have taken trips to Ardmore, Chickasha, El Reno, and Norman. VVe guess they do need a chaperone along to ward off the women. The members of the quartet are Wayiit' Peck, first tenorg Gaillard Peclc, second tenorg Bill Hubbard, baritoneg and Howard Simpson, bass. Now do you understand why they need a chaperone? The accompanist is Virginia Willianison a young lady who accordinff to Masciiliiie o inion is the best thin about rv P g the quartet. The quartet has replaced the choir this year on the various programs around town while the latter organiza- tion has been recuperating from numerous reorganizations.

C. U. It gives aspiring young dramatists an opportunity to gain practical experience on the stage, in acting as well as in setting the stage. Although slow in getting started this year because of the graduation of so many members the group has really accomplished a great deal. The Fool, this yearls major production, has proved to be a huge success. It was produced seven different times and always drew a large house. The i'Evolution of Pap and uCradle Songl' were also staged under the supervision of this organization and the dramatics department. The College Players are unique in that theirs is prac- tically the only organization in which the alumni retain an active interest. The major social event of this year for the group is a spring dinner-dance for members and alumni members to which all of them will wear Shakes- pearean costumes. The numerous plays presented by the College Players have made it one of the best known groups in Oklahoma City and surrounding towns. It is a very worthwhile organ- ization, one whose efforts are appreciable and appreciated by the entire student body.

The purpose of the club is to furnish a medium C955 through which students get experience in plaving before R , . . 'E . K a svmpathetic, critical audience.

Prospects by the dozen applied for the job, many of them with names well known in sports circles. And then, right from its own backyard it selected Toby Greene. Greene was grid assistant to Wes Fry, in 33, and to Stan Willianisoii in 34, as well as head basketball coach both years. l-lis selection by the C. C. U. Board of Trustees for the double job of director of athletics and head football coach was only another tribute to a Hlllll, who in a few short years, has had honors heaped upon him. Greene, who was a letterman in four sports at Phillips University, made it plain from the start that he was going to build a football team of which the university could be justly proud. The morale of the team, which had been seriously impaired during the 1934 season presented a grave problem, but Greene quickly went to work to remedy it. l-le turned out one of the best teams Scarabia has had in recent years. Although the boys won only three games, C975 lost four and tied one, they had the spirit and clean sports- manship essential to a team. VVorking with only graduate students as assistant coaches, Greene turned out a fighting football team, and promises great things for O. G. U. on the football field in the next two years. l-le has secured the most attractive schedule a Gold- bug eleven has played in a decade, and has boys in school who are t1'ied and true. Witlm any breaks at all, and surely Toby Greene is deserving of a few breaks, Scarabia's banner should gain at least a bit of the former prestige it held in the nation's gridiron world. Haskell Holt, graduate of 1934 and Bob Eaton, an- other Bug alumnus, were named varsity assistants to head- coach Greene. Holt was to be in charge of the backfield men, while Eaton was end coach, and freshman mentor. Holt and Eaton are two of the greatest players the Goldbugs have ever had. Both were named on various honorary teams while wearing the gold and white, l-lolt as a plunging fullback, and Eaton as a Punting end.

OKLAHOMA A. and M. COLLEGE-SEPTEMBER 27 The Goldbugs opened their season against the same team which they had walloped all over the field in the last game of 1934, but they did not meet with the same results. A iinx which the Bugs had held over the Okla- homa Aggies for several years did not bother the Still- water team, and they won a hard fought 6-0 victory. Although the Aggies won the game they had their backs to the wall most of the way. It was a hammering drive early in the second half that brought the victory. After pushing from deep in their own territory to the ----57 64 Bug 18 yard line, Cliff Wriglit, fleet Aggie back, broke off tackle and crossed the goal line untouched. It was the hardest victory the Aggie eleven had scored in many moons. During the first half the Bugs completely dominated the game with Nim Newberry and Crusty Barton making many nice runs. However, after the halftime rest, the Aggies came back to stop the Bugs and were able to push across the needed touchdown to win the game. New- berry and Barton starred in the backfield, while Captain Cecil Iones, Orville Tuttle and Trapper Talley were the outstanding linemen. C985 GOLDBUG FOOTBALL SQUAD First row: C.

CENTRAL STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE- OCTOBER 4 The Goldbugs showed real power the following week when they saddled the Bronchos of Central State Teachers College, and rode them to a 7-0 decision. Going into the game decidedly the underdogs, the Bugs played near per- fect football to score their first win of the season. After three quarters of relentless plunging, the Bugs scored early in the final quarter. The game had been a punting duel for three periods, with Bruce Piper giving the Bugs a slight edge. Harry Wade hurried a Broncho punter and the ball went out of bounds on the Central 30 yard line. Newberry went off tackle for 22 yards, and on fourth down plunged over for a touchdown. Newberry kicked goal. Twice the Bugs were inside the ten yard line, but were unable to score. Once they were held on the four yard line, and the half ended with the ball on the seven yard stripe. UNIVERSITY OF WICHITA-OCTOBER IO Nimble Nim Newberry proved nimble enough to scuttle the University of VVichita in the closest game played on the Goldbug field all year, IO-9. Although Newberry led the thrilling victory, the Bugs were not a one man team. The game was as rough a battle as the Scarabians played all season, the Bugs being assessed over loo yards in penalties, while the visitors were set back 85 yards by misplays. The first half was listless and uninteresting. Then, at the start of the third quarter, Newberry took it upon him- self to win a ball game. He returned a punt from mid- field to the 30 yard line, then made it a first down on the I7 yard stripe. On successive plays the Bugs carried the ball to the three yard line, and Newberry plunged it over. Crusty Barton entered the game and kicked the extra point, which provided the winning margin. Hoyt Barton, a freshman substitute, was tackled be- hind the Bug goal line late in the period for a safety, to make the score, 7-2. Early in the final period, Newberry pulled the most beautiful play of the game when, from a difficult angle, he kicked a beautiful field goal from the 35 yard line. Wichita scored on a long pass late in the period to make the score, IO-9, and a late attempt at a field goal missed by inches. BAYLOR UNIVERSITY-OCTOBER 18 One fumble lost the Bugs the best played ball game of the year, to the mighty Bears of Baylor University, strong Southwest Conference team, 2-o. Spec Wayland, plunging fullback, was tackled behind the Bug goal line on an attempted punt for the safety that proved the win- ning margin. T h e B u g s played brilliant T football to Ollt- class the Waco team, but their advantage came 5 in mid-field. It - was a real bat- tle all the way, with linemen gg of both teams E3 3. C J outstand- ing. Only a 'x ,X 5 4 . C999 49 -. 'Qu fm 46 penalty prevented the Bears from winning by the un- usual score 4-o, as Waylancl fumbled behind the Bug goal line again late in the game. Lloyd Russell, the Bears' erooning quarterback was the only margin of superiority between the two elevens. I-Iis printing and passing kept the Bugs wary at all times. UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA-NOVEMBER 2 The only game of the season in which the Bugs were entirely outclassed was played at Tucson when the gold-clad eleven played the University of Arizona. The worst defeat of the season was the 27-O setback they received at the hands of the rugged Arizona team. Four long passes that connected for touchdowns in the first, second and third qllflI'tCl'S spelled defeat. The Bugs were unable to muster a scoring punch although they scored nine first downs to the Arizon- ians eight. The other departments favored the Tuc- son team, however. Newberry, back and George Moss, end stood out for the Bugs. MISSOURI SCHOOL OF MINESSNOVEMBER 8 The Bugs apparently ired by their defeat at Tuc- son flashed more power in this one game than they had in all their other games together, and ran over the Miiiers from lVIissouri School of lVIines, 27-6. The Bug offense clicked from the first down, and they had the game to themselves throughout. Each man played his position brilliantly, and the blocking and tackling were nearly perfect. Newberry, Iohnny Anderson, and Piper carried the bulk of the attack. Anderson scored two touchdowns. New- berry one and Crusty Barton one. Newberry kicked two placements and Barton one. OKLAHOMA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY- NOVEMBER 22 A jinx which the Oklahoma Baptist University Bison have exercised over the Goldbugs for a good many years worked again, and in the biggest upset of the season the Shawnee team nosed the Bugs, 7-6. Both teams scored by the pass route, and neither was able to do much after the second period. Wayland Anderson Beavers sf- 90. Wade Piper Moss Coley Tuttle Kline Wallis Casey CECIL IONILS Holman '36 Captain Woodworth Talley Langston Newberry Iohnson Barton iooj 4 The Bison scored in the first five minutes of play on a long pass over the goal line, Allen Robson to Ed Skelton. Robson's perfect conversion from placement furnished the winning margin. The Bug touchdown came in the second period when Newberry unleased a heavy passing game which finally ended with a heave to Orville Kline over the goal line for 1 score from the 20 yard stripe. TEXAS TECH-SDECEMBER 7 The final game of the season saw the Bugs rise to new heights and play the best game of the year, when they held the brilliantly versatile Texas Tech Red Riders to a thrilling 7-7 tie. The Bugs were rated to lose by at least three touchdowns in pre-game predictions. The two teams played a beautiful game with honors in all departments about even. Both teams were able to penetrate to scoring territory only once but both man- aged to score. An attempted field goal by the Lubbock team in the final seconds of the game missed by an inch as the gun sounded. To Newberry must go much of the credit for the tie. l-le returned a punt to the Tech twelve yard line as the third quarter closed and Piper plunged it to the three yard line. Newberry then completed the only Bug pass of the game, over the goal line to Harry Wade, end, for a touchdown from the I5 yard line. Newberry kicked goal. Tech scored on a I7 yard pass over the goal line. The game was the last in the collegiate careers of ten mem- bers of the Goldbug team. Capt.

IOZD The Goldbug basketball tean1, respledent with out- standing players in evcry position, became known as the jewel-studded Goldbugs, but before the end of the season they seemed to tarnish. Never had basketball prospects been so bright in Scarabia as they were this year. Coach Toby Greene had a letterman team, bolstered by the addition of five out- standing players who had starred in highschool the year before. The best this outstanding quintet could do was Win II and lose 7 for the rather inglorious percentage of .6II. Orvis Red,' Dunford led the individual point makers, scoring 137 points in 18 games for the low average of 7.61. Chester Bryan, outstanding freshman prospect was second with an average of 7.17 for 18 games. The Bugs opened their season playing brilliant basket- ball to defeat East Central 33-28, and it looked as if they would be world beaters. However the next game, with the Duncan independent team, saw the Bugs bow, 40-28. The remainder of the season saw the Bugs Win, and lose, but not making much of a show in either. For the third successive year the Big Three title chase ended in a tie between the Goldbugs and Phillips Univer- sity. Both teams won two games from the Oklahoma Baptist University Bison, and then broke even in their two battles. The Bugs won the first game from Phillips, in what was probably the best game played on the home court, 37-34, in an overtime struggle. The Haymakers came back in the second fray to triumph 32-25 at Enid, thus making the title a tie. The biggest thrill of the season was the 34-32 defeat the Bugs handed the University of California at Berkely. The California quintet, returning home after an invasion of eastern and Big Ten courts, dropped off here for their lone game in the state. The Bears, long one of the outstanding teams in the Pacific Coast conference, showed a brilliant passing of- fense, coupled with an airtight defense. The Bugs, how- ever were able to combat the mighty Bruins on even terms, and in the final seconds of the game the score was tied, 32-32. Burly Iess Fronterhouse, versatile guard, snared a pass near the free throw line, dribbled once, and sank a crip shot to win the game, before the largest home crowd of the season. Plans are underfoot to take the Goldbug team on an invasion of the Pacific coast next season. The Goldbugs will have practically the same team next year they had this season. Big Red Dunford, Ted Bridges and Paul Coulter will be the only losses from this year's team by graduation. Players returning will include Chester Bryan, Woody Rentfro, Bill Glass, less Fronter- house, Delmar Wade, Bill Maril, Bill Slaughter and Lewis Behrens. These are the only players that made varsity letters during the 1935-36 season. aseball Bugs Defend Diamond Title Scarabia's Goldbug baseball team, defending a two year reign as state collegiate baseball conference champions, were well up in the 1936 battle for the flag offered by the Oklahoma City Times, at the time the Scarab went to press. At the start of the season Elgar Olvey and Spec Way- land, both senior infielders and veterans of both victorious campaigns, were named honorary captains of the 1936 baseball team. Olvey was one of the outstanding third basemen in the league, While Waylancl was a dependable shortstop and a heavy hitter, having led the club in hit- ting during the 1935 season. Weak only in the pitching department the Bugs pre- sented a veteran team under the direction of Hack Holt, 41035 new baseball coach. Van Slayden, veteran lefthander, and Eddie Davis, slim freshman righthander are the only members of the 111ound staff, but both boys are experienced and have carried the burden very nicely. On May I the Bugs had won seven games and lost one, and it looked as if the two game series with the University of Oklahoma Sooners would decide the champ- ionship. ln order the Bugs outclassed their first four foes, only to drop a gome to the Oklahoma Aggies to snap their winning streak and drop into second place in the loop standings. East Central, Phillips, Central and Southwest- ern were defeated in the first four games of the season.

The Goldbugs, with a veteran in every position, opened their season against the East Central Tigers on wind blown Cvoldbug field. lt took a ninth inning rally before the charges of Coach l-lack Holt came in victorious 8-7, but the team showed the same spirit it had exhibited the season before by scoring twice in the eighth inning to tie the score, then pushing across the winning run in the final canto. Great relief pitching by Van Slayden, who came to the rescue of Eddie Davis, set the Tigers back in order in the last two innings. Crusty Barton, leftfielder, laced out a screaming single to score Trapper Talley, who had doubled, with the winning run. April Io--Phillips University. The Bugs opened their road season by lacing out a convincing 15-3 victory over the Phillips l-laymakers at Enid. Van Slayden went the route and was never in trouble. The Bugs hit the ball hard, Crusty', Barton being the leading batsman. Coach I-lolt juggled his lineup, giv- ing every man on the squad a chance to play, and all of them performed creditably. The game was abbreviated to seven innings when the Bugs got so far ahead Phillips realized they could not hope to catch them. April 1 3-Central. Eddie Davis, starting his second game for the Bugs, had better luck against the Central Teachers Bronchos, and breezed through to a IO-4 victory. Davis retired the first twelve men to face him, and was never in difficulty, as his mates gave him a long lead in the first three innings. l-loyt Barton, freshman, broke into the starting line- up as catcher. Orville Kline, veteran backstop, was shifted to first base. Barton, one of the outstanding rookies ever to enter Scarabia, is a natural catcher. l-le plays halfback on the football team. ln winning the game the Bugs pounded out ten hits off the visitors star hurler, including a long homerun by Nim Newberry. Crustyl' Barton and 'ATrapper Talley continued their hitting sprees. Scarabials Scampering Sluggers snapped up their fourth straight win of the season when they nosed the Southwestern Teachers Bulldogs, 8-7, in a ten inning bat- tle on the home diamond. Goin into the last half of the ninth innin the Bu s B A A , B B were one run behind, and it looked as if the Bulldogs would be the first team in the state able to defeat the doughty Scarabians. 'LCrusty,' Barton laced Ollt a scream- in tri le, which was nearl a homerun, and crossed the g P . Y . plate with the tying run when Talley singled. C1045 April 16-Southwestern. Van Slayden, who went the route for the Bugs, set the Bulldogs back in order in their half of the tenth, and in the last half of the extra inning the Bugs went out to win a ball game. Newberry doubled, took third, and scored on Spec Waylantlls infield hit. The victory was another example of the never-say- die spirit that has characterized the Bugs for the past three seasons. April 21-Oklahoma Aggies. The Oklahoma Aggies tossed the first monkey wrench into the smooth running Goldbug machine at Stillwater when they pounded out a 7-1 victory. As a whole the Bugs played good baseball, but their batting eyes were dimmed by the dust that swept the field, and they managed to get only three safeties, one a booming homerun by Nim Newberry for the lone Scarab- ian run. The victory tumbled the Bugs out of first place in the loop standings. Slayden took up the mound duties in the seventh and kepth the Aggies at bay the remainder of the way. Talley was the only other Goldbug able to solve the Aggie pitchers' offerings. l-le collected two singles. A lean, lanky Arkansas farm lad, namely George Freeman, who was pitching his first collegiate ball game, kept the Bugs on his hip throughout, so sharp was his curve ball, and so fast was his fast ball. April 23-Phillips. As decisively as the Bugs trounced the Phillips nine at Enid was the story of the return game played here. Sixteen times did Scarabian runners dent home plate, in a slugfest which saw Newberry, Wayland, Morris, New- man and Perry Griffin knock balls out of the park for homeruns. From the opening inning when the Bugs scored three runs, until the eighth when they scored three more, for a total of 16 the Scarabians had a field day. Every man on the team managed to collect at least one safety. Van Slayden opened on the mound, and blanked the Haymakers for three innings, He retired in favor of Ed Eoxy', Olvey in the fourth, who was touched for three runs in the five innings he pitched. uTrapper Talley, long with an ambition to pitch, took over the mound in the final inning, struck out two batters, hit one, walked another, and gave up one hit to allow Phillips to score their fourth run. April 29 .... Chilocco. The Goldbugs fattened their individual batting aver- ages in their first game with Chilocco, pounding out a 17-3 victory. Eddie Davis went the route for l-lack l-loltls team, and breezed through to win easily. Trapped Tal- leyls two homeruns in his first two trips to the plate pro- vided the highlight of the game. May 1 .... Oklahoma Aggies. Witli nothing but revenge in their minds the Bugs went to work on the Cklahoma Aggies in the first inning of their return game here, and pounded out a I7-Io victory which evened up the 7-I defeat at Stillwater the week be- fore. Van Slayden pitched the entire game, and it was only in the ninth inning that he weakened, and allowed the Aggies to push across seven runs. The Bugs scored three runs in the first inning, and added steadily to their lead the remainder of the way.

The two were obviously not farmers. The speaker, slouched indolently in his chair, was corpulent, with short pudgy legs that dangled from the edge of his chair.

C1145 u luuuin am al Most Charm 'ng y Virginia Estes ' Something utterly original and unique in the way of contests was brought to Oklahoma City University this year in Wayne Campbell's Charm Contest. It was Pro- fessor Campbell's own idea engendered by the silliness of Zllarion Buchanan beauty contests in which onlv facial features are consid- ered and the unfairness of popularity contests which de- pend upon combine politics. To quote Professor Campbell, It was an attempt to evaluate the measurable elements of charm, realizing that many factors in charm are beyond our perception. Numerous schools have inquired about the nature of the contest and tentative plans are being made for a state- wide contest with candidates from the different state schools competing. The contest consisted of four episodes. The first, a breakfast room scene, was judged principally on domesticity shown. The following episode, a reception for a celebrity, exhibited the graciousness and hostess charm of the con- testant. Glamour was the predominant motive of the third scene in which the contestant also was judged on her danc- ing ability. Her radio personality was tested in the fourth and last episode. The various other points on which the contestants were judged included voice and diction, bearing, grooming, conversational ability, grace, dress, and wit. Girls were nominated by the different girls, organiza- tions on the campus, sponsors were chosen from the social leaders of the city, and clothes were furnished by city mer- chants. Miss Marion Buchanan, won the contest, placing first in two Ollt of the four episodes. Miss Buchanan was the candidate of the Sphinx Club and is a member of the Phi Delta sorority. l-ler sponsor was Mrs. Al Rosenthal. Other candidates in the order of their placing were Pat Cassady, Kappa Tau Delta, sponsored by Mrs. Earl Foster, Catherine McKenzie, Beta Alpha Phi, sponsored by Mrs. Frank Miirtiiig Billie Newton, College Players, sponsored by Mrs. Marcus Brewer, Merle Robinson, Car- dinal Key, sponsored by Mrs. Iohn Voltz.

Many men were considered. In the end the Board looked in its own ranks for the proper man,-and found him-Dr. A. G. Williamson, president of the group. Dr. Williamson took over the leadership during the darkest hour in the history of O. C. U. He has made us hopeful. He has reduced substantially the University in- debtedness. He is launching the greatest financial cam- paign in the history of the school. One secret of the president's success is his high place in the civic affairs of Oklahoma City. Last autumn he was elected to membership on the city planning commis- sion. He is active in all worthy campaigns and drives. While a pastor at Wesley he was prominent in the work of the city Ministerial Alliance. This spring he was chairman of the Oklahoma dele- gation to the General Conference of the M. E. Church, which Il1Ct in Columbus, Ohio.

If you want to be entertained ask Orville Sherman about the movie that he was in this winter. Days when we would rather have been at home in bed was Homecoming Day and the parade in the rain. That was our idea of a bad day to take pictures. Another such day was the Erosh-Soph fight day. Many thanks to the student body for the cooperation this year, with very few exceptions everybody was willing to help. This was much better than last year. Speaking of last year here is one who can still remember the bull- sessions that used to go on in Scribbler's Hall. I think that we got the worst of the deal when we were moved to our new quarters. Our idea of one swell guy and that is Bill Kent, also Iack Bell. Bouquets to Editor Tommy for the idea of putting an index in a year-book, it is something that we have never seen before. Another one of our pet peeves is the ban against playing cards in the Bug, also the lack of service in the same joint. I am thankful that nobody had the bright idea of taking some pictures off the top of the tower, I went up there last year and nearly froze, besides getting fallen arches from the stairs. We wonder if Kenneth Woodard will turn out to be a publicity man, he has some wonderful ideas on promo- tion, such as the Dating Bureau.

They pushed all the credit for blamej for that letter in The Campus on George Storms. And all the time we thought he didn't even know what politics was all about. DELTA PSIS These guys take one look at your face, and if it has that dishonest mien of a politician, they sign you up. To them, college is just an election. l-low they won the scholarship cup will remain one of the great unsolved mysteries of life. If you can't tell a member by his face, look for a pencil-theylre all would-be journalists. That is, all except Bill Maril, who still thinks his loye life is news. The boys go in for Stunt Night cups as a sidelne. Thatls why they pledged Rex Waltlron-so they wouldnlt have to go to so much trouble to win. We donlt know why they pledged Chick Davis, though. He can't draw a lick. TI-IETA NUS Their motto is HGet a new lease on life-the mortgage company has one on the house. They're all hermits, but some of 'em are not house-broken yet. Love the Phi Chis, because they are the only boys they can beat at any kind of athletics. They pledge everybody who is afraid to go home for one reason or another. Theylre try- ing to work up a nice transient clientele in the city for their hotel. Iohn Rose says he thought a frat house was the same as a mess hall. I-le wasn't far wrong. PI-II DELTS These are the gals who think a chaperone is just some- one to hand out wafers. They have more dates than the Dromedary Company. Married off first semester prexy, lane Lyons, so they could elect Zelma. She was already president of everything else. Made their pledges come to school with dark glasses and tin cups. Sup- posedly in fun, but we think they really needed the money. Most wicked electioneer in the state is pledge Charlene Garrison. She tried to get votes out of every- body, from President Williamson down to the rival queen candidates. KAPPA TAUS Fair-haired politicians with dishonest faces. The only resource they didn't call upon to elect lzrna Baker Scarab Queen was the United States lvlarine Corps. Ninety per Cent of the pledges had to work on the yearbook. Woiicler why. Most of lem didn't even know what an annual looked like. Virginia Metz said she had always thought C1193 a Scarab was a sore on your hand. We guess Mrs. Brooks did her best, but some people just arenlt the mental type. KAPPA Pl-IIS Inst a big bunch of amateur athletes trying to be pro- fessional social butterflies. The football complex is so great they kick each other around in meeting. The frat is also known as the O Club. We don't think they'll ever win the scholastic cup. But they donlt want it-none of 'em drink anyway. Class the Genius was director-gen- eral. There's not a barber in the whole crowd. When Fronterhouse had a date they almost kicked him out. Then a couple of others tried it, and two girls fainted. All members keep in training, but the pledges still had to hand cigarettes. Maybe the boys saved them until after the game. TRI Pl-HS Small town dames with high school diplomas. One pledge thought Phi Phi Phi was the same as Shame on youll three times. They elected president Virginia Hand to the Student Council. Must have been a mistake- they arenlt supposed to win any elections. Members keep the fact of their membership mighty quiet. lt's a sort of secret organization, the real mystery being how they get anybody to join. B. A. Pl-HS First cousins to the Tri Phis. Also got their president, Ieanne Frances l-loggard, elected to the Student Council on what was probably a round trip ticket. They keep the pot albilin' by being against everything. Motto: Wliy join any other sorority when you can B. A. Phi? Colors are purple and gold. Another secret society, with members going around unidentified. A O's Elected president Faye Bragg to the same Student Council so they could have enough for a good game of croquet. But she didn't make a very good wicket. Mem- bers are still learning how to dance. No, we can't name any of the latter. Lariats are wearing out, so it's getting hard to rope in any pledges. Club flower is the white daisy. VVe donlt know for sure, but it sounds like a wild flower. Any connection? BARBS Practically the total membership is three. Members are Helen Rice, Lois Arric and Peter Kamitchis. Maurine Mcliriiglit was official representative of the organization, if any. A funny sort of sorority-nobody will pay dues. Cl-leavy sarcasm, you dopeb. They'd like to get organized, but donlt have enough members to elect a full set of of- ficers. Also canlt get any pledges. It must be a lonely life, not to have any freshmen to order around. They may be Barbs, but they donlt seem to be able to hook anybody. MEMO TO THE EDITOR. We're really sorry- if weve missed anybody.

Brought to by the sudden light he stands blinking for a moment and then says to no one in parti- cular, I wonder just what the-the hurry is? Elaine seeing no one in sight stops blushing and says in joe Pen- ner style- I donyt knowfl A long, drawn out object sud- denly sits erect on the piano and says, uGeel Kenny.

King,I' Kenny and Sherman march to the center of the stage and go into a huddle, finally breaking up and all going in different directions. They reappear with hammer, saw, nails, and what-have- you. Newby parks herself on a handy stairway and waits patiently for anything which might happen. From the left wing we hear Thompson's laugh as Sherman falls through the stairway which leads to the south organ loft.

He had always been respected in the commun- ity, in fact, was sheriff . . . oh, about fifteen years ago, but the halting, leaden sentences in which he droned out thc story of how he had sacrificed his wife got to gnaw- , ,, :ng on everyones nerves. 'ASacrificed?,' interrupted Young. Did he actually think that? The editor solemnly shook his chins in answer. Yes, You see, with each telling, the enormity of his guilt grew. He was becoming quite convinced that he was really the murderer. He no longer mentioned the actual slayer in his recital. K'There's a story there, said Young. Somehow-- Van impatiently intervened. I'm not through. Let me finish my story . . . Well, the old man aged incredibly in the next few weeks. Once he had been a fine example of stalwart, erect manhood in graceful, imperceptible decay. But . . . his fierce, direct eyes became watery with easy tears . . . they had a timorous, beaten look in them. His blue lips twitched loosely. His body became stooped. He was bent forward as if the ruthless hand of that bully, destiny, was holding him relentlessly by the scruff of the neck and pushing him further and further down. His eyes, shackled as they were to the ground, never lifted. Whenever he was talking to someone, his eyes would blink stonily at the tips of their shoes. He seemed doddering on the verge of insanity. Then, one day, something hap- pened. It was that sudden. I met him on the street and I could hardly believe my eyes . . . I- Van cut his tale short and gestured up the street with his cigar. There comes the old man now. Young leaned out of the window and stared search- ingly at the figure walking slowly up the -street. Some- thing peculiar about the figure held his fascinated eye .U . . something about the queer crook of his arm, something about the attentive bent of the white-thatched head toward that arm. Van surveyed the youth's puzzled face with a smile. As the old man came closer, past lake Waters' store, past the Post Cffice, past- Say, Van, what the deuce is the matter with the old fellow?y' demanded Young, taking his glasses off and wiping them absently. The way he keeps gazing over at his arm . . . almost as if there were-'I Almost as if he were escorting someone, finished Van. He too leaned forward and watched the old man. He had halted in front of the Mayer Clothing Store and was gazing into the windowfat an array of pink and white womanfs undergarments. 'LHe,s not interested in that clothing. He's . . . showing them to his wifef, His wife? . . . wifel But I thought you-I' stam- mered Young. Then suddenly his face cleared and he focused his eyes once more on Waldo Lang, his eyes lumi- nous with a pitying understanding. 'LI see what you mean,', he said slowly. L'He1', That's right . . . As I said, I met him that day and could hardly believe my eyes. He was stalking down the street, his body marvelously rejuvenated, his eyes alive once more. He stopped and greeted me, full of gentle high spirits, and then he turned to someone on his right and said: 'Wefre glad to see Mr. Van Camp, aren't we mother?,' Only . . . there was no one on his right. 'AI-Ie listened a moment, wagged his head in agree- ment, bowed to me, and set off down the street again, helping his imaginary companion across the stret with state- ly courtliness, turning his head now and then as if to listen and then he would move his lips in reply. I re- mained standing there . . . staring dumbly after him- uHe,s moving againf' said Young. He watched Lang stroll on up the sidewalk toward the railroad, which ran beside the tiny park of the city. Then: Does he really believe that . . . she is back with him again?', UYes, said Van, he does. He has forgotten the whole tragic event of her death. He thinks she has never left him. He says she is Asicklyy and he does all the house- work and the cooking . . . till she gets her strength back, he says. What do you think, Young, of him? Rather an unusual character, eh?,' Young nodded, his eyes still on the old man. Yes he certainly is, he said softly. I wonder how it will end? Van was not allowed to answer. Young clutched his arm and pointed toward the railroad tracks. A huge bull was galloping along the ties, snorting loudly, his wide- branching horns shaking fiercely over his massive head. Van heaved his body up from his chair in alarm. uHe must have escaped from the stockyards down the tracks. He started heavily toward the stairs, hurling back over his shoulder: those kids in the park across the street from the park. We,ve got to hurry! The two hurried down the short flight of stairs and began running up the road, a rapidly increasing throng fol- lowing them as Van panted to those on the street what he had seen. 'AOld Waldo, what about him? asked Young, as they ran. Ch, he got away all right, puffed Van. It,s those kids. I'm afraid we're going to be too late. Hey . . look! Young looked. Waldo Lang had left his place of re- QContinued on page 1235 X K VEAZEY DRUG C0.

HHeys running directly into the path of the bullf' gasped Van. Wliat in thely' The old man had his coat off now. He stood wav- ing it in slow, tantalizing circles before him, awaiting the charge of the angry bull. The bull blew a blast from his distended nostrils, lowered his horns, and continued his flight, his malignant little eyes growing nearer and nearer. The children in the park, who were right in the path if he should swerve around the old man, were screaming. Most of them were not over three and four years old and, paralyzed by the sudden fright, could only stand in help- less panic. The old man, surprisingly agile for a man of his years, eluded the onslaught of the bull the first time, the horn tearing his coat from his hands. But the animal slid stiffly to a stop, turned, and charged again at his adversary. Lang almost evaded him this time but one horn slid through his body, protruding redly from his back. He was saved fron being further gored or trampled by the arrival of the party of men. One of their members, the deputy sheriff, fired his revolver at the bull, and after the second shot, the animal staggered on stilted legs and fell with a mushy thud onto the pavement. The men gathered around the recumbent figure. Two of them started to lift him tenderly and carry him to the nearest car but the old man weakly stopped them. uNo. Leave me here. You can move me when-4' He didn't finish his sentence nor did he need to. The men had only to look at the great hole in his chest, from which the blood was cddying in bright spurts. The crowd, solemnly reinoved their hats as of one ac- cord, in reverent tribute to the courage of the old man. The deputy bent over him and spoke softly. Ill a shot sooner, Mr. Lang, but I was afraid I'd shoot you. l'm . . . I'm sorry, sirf' Langis face was already stiffening into a pallid, rigid mask but he could still wave his limp hand in a kindly gesture. That's all right, Mr. Caxton, quite all right. Not your fault, sir.U He tried to raise his head but low- ered it again, with a futile atempt to suppress a grimace of pain. ls . . . is my wife all right? he whispered, so softly that the weathered deputy had to stoop to hear him. Caxton's face softened. The crowd hushed its sub- dued murmuring and stood aghast. Van and Young, kneeling by the side of the dying man, could feel their eyes sting with tears. 'LYes, sir, your wifels all right, Caxton gulperl and blew his nose with a handkerchief that shook strangely. lim so gladf, breathed Lang, his face a hloodless blue. l'You know, she . . . was . . . was right in . . . in the path of that . . . bull,', his breath was coming in straining, painfully sticking pants but he went on-Hand . . . I had to . . . to save her. She . . . fell when l ran . . . the first time. lim glad . . . glad l saved her, he said. His head rolled slackly to one side, his eyes snap- ped shut. There was a sudden cessation of his horrible gasps. He had died as did the gallant knights of yore-in defense of his lady. Van straightened up slowly. i'Well, thereys your ending, he said dully. Young nodded. C1233 ioe House ats BY WALLY DIETZ Situated in a corner between the Gym and the north side of the campus lies the haven fnot Ruthj and last retreat of that masterful group of men somewhat dubi- ously called athletes.

Six-thirty a. ni. trips though and slaps that handsome blond brute 'ileep Iobn Talley out of bed. He then pro- ceeds to emit sleepy growls and curses which gradually change to roars. This wakes the rest of the bums which is pretty darn good roaring even for Talley. Between seven and seven-thirty we find the little dears stuffing their faces. The conversation more or less drags along between swallows by such members of the elite as Little Chesteri' Steinbock, Open Eacen Austin and our own Royal Ram, Cleodus Beavers, resplendent in a new fireman's uniform. By this time the radio is playing Bury Nfe not on the Lone Prairiey' or something equally as bad. This is suddenly drowned Ollt by loud curses from uRedy' Dun- ford, who forgot and raised his head, bringing it in con- tact with the ceiling. The boys all leave for their classes but only the intelli- gensia such as Curtis Spitler and 'Eat Boy Ereeman ever arrive. They,ve found it easier to sleep in a quiet class- room than at Red Nix's where Vlfendell Smith goes for that 'Lmorning afterv feeling. Eventide thrusts itself upon us and at last night falls accompanied by the pants and shirts of the dog-tired males as they retire. About one a. m. the door crashes open and Arky Mays staggers up the stairs coming home from work, but the noise soon dies and nothing but raucous snores is left to mar the peace and quiet of the night. e eformation Qfiontinued from page II8, ter-in-law's hands. She was half in the water with her shoulders resting precariously on the leaves of the roof. Hold on, ma, llm acomin', Earl called. He reached the other end of the roof too late. His mother was slipping slowly off the roof. Her nails scratch- ed raspingly along the shingles in one last desperate effort as she slid off. Earl could see the sweat faintly glistening on her wrinkled forehead just before she let go. She didn't shout. She went under silently, soggily. The waves lashed hungrily over the spot. The launch coasted up against the house soon after- ward. They had seen the catastrophe but although they waited for several minutes, they saw no sign of a body in the racing, reckless waters.

Donald Stolz arrives and asks if there is anything he can do. Ac the prompt answer of l'Yes he says that is fine but he must go do some typing for Prof. Campbell. He bumps into Virginia Williamson at the door who wants to practice on the piano and Sherman very ungentlemanly yells, 'Good-l Wereti't those twenty-five pianos on this stage last week enough for you? Virginia, not pleased with his tone, puts her nose in the air and without any kind of retort stalks out of the auditorium. She promptly returns with the whole quartet which consists of Bill Hubbard, Gail Peck, Walyiie Peck and Howard Simpson and proceeds to rehearse for a solid fifteen min- utes. Sherman by this time is tearing his hair, Kenny is yelling to be let down so he can get at them and King, is praying for strength to keep from killing them. The quartet nonchalantly finishes its rehearsal and leaves. Kenny drops a hammer ou King's foot who picks it up and slings it at Sherman for telling him to do something. Sherman in turn ducks and the hammer makes a large hole with a familiar crashing sound as it sails through the north window. Iune promptly calms Swain down and work gets under way again. Everything is running smoothly until Dean Burg sends in a piano-tuner to work over the concert grand. Miicli to our surprise the boys take it very calmly, as if they were resigned to their fate and go on about their work with a very determined look in their eyes.

Did you know?-and they go into a huddle concerning a choice bit of gossip. Suddenly there is a loud crash and Sherman is pulled out from under the big window, a little battered but still able to grin. Thompson of course gets a big kick out of this incident and Sherman glares at her with murder in his eyes. She crawls back under the piano and the tuner goes noisily on with his work.

These famous personages have various methods of getting into the public eye that would be especially appreciated in Hollywood. First, of course, comes the great Hanson who started the school year off with plaid shirts, fsixty-nine cents each? and won moi'e notoriety that first week than any other Delta Psi-an accomplishment in itself. Since then he has managed to keep in the public eye by means of his collegiate dancing, his moustache, Qhere today and gone tomorrowj, and his rendition of popular songs, especially Swing lt.', Another well known Scarabian is A. G. Myers who manages, besides his own, the advertising for the Campus. He is familiar to everyone except his professors who seldom see him.

Hi Doty is the champion coffee drinker of the campus and attributes his recognition to this fact, although the Theta Nus and Phi Chis insist that it is because he is publisher of the Delta Psi Rag.

O' Neil Typewriter Exchange We Deal in New and Used Typewriters -RENTALS- SPECIAL RATES TO STUDENTS 230 West Second Phone 7-7012 Election Stoege by Virginia Estes There are certain definite rules for vote-getting in com- bine elections. These rules are rather involved as the gen- eral psychological make-up of the victim must be consid- ered. First, let us consider the Don't-Care or Indifferent type. You walk up to him, smile sweetly Qin all cases you fl'1llSt smile sweetlyj, and ask him if he has voted. If he says no, as he probably wiil if you get him early enough in the day, you then say, Will you vote?,' He'll probably say he doesn't care who is elected. And if he does he is cinched. You drill him a few times on the names of your combine's candidates and walk with him to the polls, look over his shoulder to see that he checks the right names, thank him sweetly and forget him. This is the most elementary type and is much simpler than the others. Next in line is the Slightly-Stubborn or Mt1st-be-Coii- vinced type. He must be persuaded and cajoled and as- sured of your candidate's worthwhile qualities, and then he will vote. Third we have the Tantalizing type, usually a male, which you leave with the Thank-God-there arcn't many- of-them feeling. He appears blitliely amused at your somewhat subtle efforts to inveigle him into voting 'Kfor X the best man. He might even suggest you join him in a coke at the Bug while he thinks it overg most likely he'll take up an hour of your valuable time, while you speak lightly on the current topics of the day and just as you get back around to the election of the moment he suddenly remembers something real important he has to do, but if youill remind him he'll vote after his next class. Fourth comes a very difficult type. He is the Very Stubborn or Vote-lust-The Opposite-Way type. You flat- ter him and instruct him how to vote and you can tell by the baleful gleam in his eye when he comes out of the polls that he voted just the opposite. Sometimes he is more outspoken about it and comes out and tells you he will vote just as he wants to. The Fifth and last type is the Don't-Give-a-darn or You-Botliei'-Me-Trio-Miicli. He absolutely refuses to vote and all but tells you to get-to-heck-out-of-his-way This type is absolutely worthless and it is useless to give him even your smile No. ii which you reserve for special occasions. However, you suppose that it takes all kinds of voters to break an election. 34 he Rembrandt Studios FOR THE SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR WE HAVE DONE OUR PART TO MAKE YOUR SCARAB THE COMPLETEST RECORD OF YOUR COLLEGE DAYS WE HAVE THE NEGATIVES OF YOUR SCARAB PHOTOGRAPH AND STAND READY AT ANY TIME TO FURNISH FOR YOU ine Ughotoqnap he No other gift can please hall: so much as your Photograph The Rembrandt Studios 415 Perrine Building Phone 3-1236 OKLAHOMA CITY 3 R Qizgj ore ntulity uestion by Gus . radford fffnest Artist?

The editors approached the Board of Publications on the subject of sponsoring the magazine, but the Board de- cided that they would have no part in it, but advised the editors to go ahead with their project. Phil Dessauer was named editor, Stanley Pate, man- aging editor, I-Ii Doty, feature editor, I-larry Roberts, busi- ness manager, and Vernon Dennis, advertising manager. The magazine swept the campus like a miniature whirlwind, and was published three times during the school year. The magazine was patterned after leading college humor publications over the country, and proved to be one of the most popular publications ever attempted at Scarabia. The editors were aided in their venture by outstanding newspaper writers in the city. Wiiltei' M. I-Iarrison, man- aging editor of The Daily Uklahoman and Times was named honorary editor, and assisted the student staff a great deal. hir. Ielarrison, better known as the USkipper,'I dedicated the first edition, and took an active part in the later issues. C1295 Plans are underway to make the GOLD BRICK one of the outstanding publications on the campus next fall. It is hoped that an agreement can be reached between the literary department to incorporate the Magazine as a hu- mor-literary publication, bearing the Scarabian seal. Wlieii the magazine made its initial appearance it marked the first time a humor magazine had ever been published at Scarabia. In previous years several attempts had been made to start a humor magazine, but it remained for the staff of four freshmen and one sophomore to turn the trick. Witli the humor magazine idea burning in their breasts the five editors went to work to see what could be done. For five days the staff labored, sweated, pulled their hair and gnashed their teeth. Finally the magazine was ready for the press, and the editors WCIII home, satisfied they had a job well done. They were convinced that they had accomplished something that would be of great enjoyment, and ulti- mate benefit to Scarabia. Never were there five prouder boys than the editors the day the first edition appeared. It took the campus by storm, and its success was assured.

Hi Doty, the rumored editor of The Campus, is really an abseutfminded reprobate that canyt even re- member which feet his shoes go on. Doty's favorite is to wander over to the Goldbug and leave his Campus copy there, then saunter to the journalism room, pull out his assignment sheet, and notice his loss. A frantic dash to the Bug ensues, in which he never fails to leave his as- signment sheet in thc journ, room. This has been said to be repeated as many as a dozen times, at the end of which Hiram is balmier than ever. No use to limit this tirade of tirades to the hapless students. No, not while the blunderiug, bustling profes- sors are still blundering and bustling. Take Prof. Castleberrv for instance. VVIW, he doesnt know nothing. else whv would he be perenniallv asking his students questions? To Professor Brous goes the distinction of being the most absentminded. 'Tis said of him that he was once getting a shave, when an excited man ran into the barber shop and yelled, lVIr. Iones, Nh: Jones, your house is on fire. Prof. Brous leaped up and ran a block before he remembered his name wasnlt Iones. Then there's Prof. Bill Kent, who thinks he's well- bred because he loaves so much. Phi Chi Truman Evans is so dumb that he thinks that canned music is a nnisician fired from his job. Then theres that obtusive Orville Sherman who maintains that a ham actor is a dramatist on a pork diet. Of course lVIartha Priest was raved about. Likely it was said of her, a beautiful brunette with eyes like stars, etc. My how editors do lie. Fred Nlarsh is aspiring to the ministerial profession. Listen, that guy still thinks that a gentleman of the cloth is a clothing merchant. After reading the write up on Orville Tuttle, what a great football player he is, and the such, I have lost faith in the judgment of man. Crville even thinks that a quarter-back is tails on a two-bit piece. And as for the other Qrville, Kline by name, he thinks defense is the thing that runs around the field. e eree of abit BY MARGARET COLLISTER His walk was characteristic of a man who had not had a square meal for days. He jogged aimlessly along, looking neither to the right nor left. Occasionally his hand crept into the pocket of his threadbare trousers and jingled the few remaining pennies that it found there. The sound did not please him. It reminded him toll pofgnantly of the still hungrier days that were to follow. He thought of his childhood in the Qld Country. Those were carefree days. Days spent romping in the green pastures of an eternal spring. He could almost hear his mother's voice as she called him in, tired and dusty, his mouth watering expectantly from the aroma of the simf inering pork pie that would be his supper. The thought of food brought him sharply back to reality. Lord, but he was hungry! He must have walked miles, his hunger protesting every step of the way. He was passing a fruit peddler's cart. The great round apples shone blood-red from their conspicious posi- tion on tope of the pile. Almost unconsciously he reached out and grabbed one. His teeth had barely met the skin of the apple when cries of Thief! Robber! Catch himl could be distinctly heard above the din of the mid-day traffic. He began to run. Blindly . . . weakly . . . brushing C1313 aside pedestrians that turned to gape or frown at him. Streaking up an alley, he paused long enough to turn and see a policeinan wielding a gun in the air and shout- ing for him to stop. He knew the gaxne was up. The policeman puffed slowly up to him. Clad you stopped, he panted, 'Kdidn't want to plug you, you know. Say, of all the carts in this here neighborhood, why'd you have to pick on that one? The Jew what owns it is a son-of-a-gun.

LOVE Love comes As swiftly as the thoughts of clever meng All other things grow unimportant when Love comes.

If it should pass, that winged thought, That lucid light,- If I should lose it, If I should fail to catch The lilting dream of inspiration, Then I shall soul-storm, And eat my heart out for the wanting. -Bonita Carpenter. LAMENT If I were young and very gay I'd dance along the Great White Way, And nightly I would gallivant, And dine in places elegant. But Ilm no longer young and gay And so I sing a roundelay, Of hearth-side pleasures, mild, forsooth. QSmall recompense, to tell the truth.j -IVIargueritte Shelburne SUMMER Throb of a sob in a tall man's throat, Whir of the wind in the winding grasses, Flow of the shimmering water of Summer, Red earth grasping the breathing in fullness, Grind of the scythe on a hidden rock, like 3 loud, fasbbeating heart, Crunch of the shoe on the crumbled mounds, That, tcrropstrickeny I-Ieaven and I-Iell in the sky and earthl I-Ieaven and Hell in the soul of man. Watches the darkening of the shadows of doom. -Estelle Fagin -Katherine Dimick C1375 A u tographs C1383 Autographs C 5 D A utographs I4 A utogruphs C 141 D
