Thus it was that the Okla- homa City University Alumni Association IT1Ct this summer to decide Whether the newly organized foot- ball team should resume the title of Goldbugs', or adopt a new name. It was decided that the Goldbugs were to be known as Chiefs This started the series of changes which resulted in the Bug, school cafeteria, now being called The Tepeeg che school emblem being changed to a Chiefs head as evidenced by Dr. Smith taking down the Scarab, former symbol of O. C. U.g Sphinx Literary Society, oldest organization for women on the campus, being changed to Slia-Watlia Literary Society, and Hnally in a new name for the yearbook. In a meeting of The Board of Publications with the president, the editorial staff presented a list of names carrying out the Indian theme that would be suitable for the publication. Kesbemz, the name chosen, is derived from the Hopi Indian dialect. It was the former name of' a Chieftain and means Nflying swiftf, The name as used signifies The Chief or The Kesbemz. Scarab Stunt: Nite, the night of entertainment spon- sored each year by the yearbook was changed to Keshena Kapers.

I-le was appointed Dean of Students in 1941 and held this Position until 1946 when he resigned. At the presentttime he is professor of sociology and is President of Q. C. U.'s Faculty Club. I-iis college days began at Phillips University, Enid, where he received an A.B. degree. Wliile here he was active in evangelistic singing, going on tours throughout the state. Dr. Cleveland was awarded a scholarship to Yale University and attended three semesters as a graduate student and assistant in social sciences. I-ie holds 13.5. and A.M. degrees from Chicago University and an Ed.D. degree from Stanford University. As a graduate student in Psychology, he attended the University of Southern California, and studied education psychology at Columbia University. Several years ago, the Journal of Higher Education Published an article by Dr. Cleveland and Walter Crosby Eells entitled uljaculty lnbreedingf' He is a member of Phi Delta Kappa, education fraternity, and the American Association of University Professors. I-le is listed in VV'ho's Wlio in American Education and was recently chosen to appear in Wl1o's Wlxo in Leaders of Edu- cation, when this book is published. H A member of St. Luke's. Metlaodist Church, he has been quite active in church work in Oklahoma City and is now serving on the Board of Stewards.

U. he has taken an active Part in student activities, where he is sponsor of two organizations, Blue Key and Phi Chi Phi., I-ie is also a member of Pi Gamma Mil. The zest and zeal which Dr. Cleveland has for teaching are well evidenced in his own words, iiWl1Cl1 I don't get fun out of teaching, l'll quit. To you, Dr. Cleveland, in admiration and appreciation of this spirit, the members of the junior and senior classes take pleasure in dedicating The Keslaemz 1 of Anno Domini nineteen hundred and forty-seven. -5.

Herein are reflected the rapid, progressive realization of cherished ambitions of students, faculty and ad- ministration. May Keslrzemz, which connotes brave, colorful and dramatic leadership, stimulate the Class of 1947 to continued progress. These pages mirror unprecedented growth of Okla- homa City Universityls enrolment and financial stabil- ity, the return to the campusof more than 1,500 men from the battlefields of the world in defense of our freedomg the resumption of athletics, and many other student activities which were interrupted during the four years of War. Class of 1947, during your four years here, you have seen the University cleared of lIS36o,00o.oo in- debtedness, the assets quadrupled, the endowment in- creased l55oo,ooo.oog the enrolment grow from I,IOO to 3368, the library, with 10,000 new volumes, moved into its new homeg a pipe organ installed in the auditoriumg a new cafeteria built on the campusg 163 apartments for C1l's built at Will Rogers Field, and more than .l5200,000.00 worth of teaching equip- ment added. The faculty has been doubled. O. C. U. has been accredited by the University Senate, and the School of Music by the American Association of Schools of Nfusic. You have had a large share in all this advance. You and other students have been the sole inspiration and purpose of this achievement. We are sure you will carry the same inspiration and progress into your chosen professions or occupations. May you never forget that achievement adds responsibility and makes failure conspicuous. Class of 1947, we shall miss you and hope you will return often to the campus. Our interest, best wishes and prayers will follow you. C. Smith 1101. FACULTY L. L.

From someone's portable, the sentimental strains of Serenade to a Nlildewed I-Iollyhockn waits softly. ' Cloamcters: An enormous peanut butter blonde, 6 feet 4 inches tall, who is champion woman wrestler of the Oklahoma Physical Education Institute For Athletically Minded Girls. One might say her teeth were not prominent but she could eat light bulbs off a marquee through a Venetian blind. I-Ier name is Agnes Voorhees. The other character is a bespectacled, backward, immature lad whose only claim to fame is his vice-presidency of the O. C. U. Bird and Plant Life Library Researchers Club. I-Ie is 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighs 95 pounds and is totally ignorant of worldly matters. I-Ie has not yet been exposed to woman's purpose in life but suspects the worst. I-Iis name is I-Iomer Sneed. Dialogue: Agnes: Qcoylyj Tell me, I-Iomerg what have you planned for tonight after fraternity meeting? Homer: Ctimidlyj Oh, I thought I might start writing my thesis on 'iThe Sap of the Eucalyptus Tree and its Effect on Litmus Paperf' Aggie: fspeaking in a mellow baritonej An en- riching plan. Tomorrow night the O. C. U. Band is giving a concert. This is Leap Week, you knowg would you like to go with me, hmmmmmm?', I-Iomer: fstartledj I have to stay home and write a theme on The Albatross, Its Habitat and Its Eggs in Comparison Witlu Those of the Common I-len for Use in Omelettesf' Aggie: fcocking an eye belligerentlyj That sounds gay. I-Iow about coming over to my apartment Wednesday night and seeing my picture album? I-Iomer: fis stunned but manages to recovery Oh, I couldn't do that. Furthermore, I am going to stay home and try out a new recipe I have for oatmeal cookies.. Besides, I never go out with girls.

The group's duties are to regulate and govern school activities. For the second time in O. C. U.'s history and for the second time in two years, a girl became president of the Student Council. Carolyn Storer followed A. E. Davis who resigned due to a promotion in his work. Mr. Davis was elected to replace Ed Oelke, who gradu- ated at mid-term. On the lighter side, the Council sponsored two all-school mixers, Leap Week, and the '89er Day En OELKE CAROLYN STORER A. E. Davis celebration. The annual food drive was sponsored at Christmas time. In order to afford better representation of students in the Council and to clarify ambiguous parts, a new constitution was drawn up and will be in effect soon. To promote better assemblies, a program committee was appointed by the administration. Three council members and three faculty members served on this group. Assembly scripts had to be approved by this committee before presentation to the student body was allowed.

The first task our staff had last fall was to select a title in keeping with the new Indian theme at O. C. U. So The Scamh bowed out and The Ieeslaem was born. jone Wells was chosen to be editor of the First Keshemz, and Prank Armstrong the business manager. These two kept busy getting the individual pictures made, etc., until second semester when the rest of the staff Was chosen. Varsity Revue in the fall put a large load on the shoulders of editor Wells and staff. The try-outs for beauty queen in the two assemblies and the two per- formances were under her jurisdiction. She felt so responsible, in fact, that she began to refer to all the judges as amy judges, and We suspect she worried as much about the girls' parading as they did them- selves. But she had her laughs. When the copy for the book came in there were so many slips of the typewriter that she thought of running a page of it was printed this Way. One of the big jobs which fell to The Keshemz staff was sponsoring Keshena Kapers, Ma1'cl1 21. Thanks to jone's ability to be in half a dozen places doing many jobs at one and the same time, the event ffor- merly Scarab Stunt Nitej was a huge success. Other members of the staff who aided Ione are class editors Nlargaret Long, Merrill Samuelson, Ruth Tormohlen and Marjorie Barton of the senior, junior, sophomore and freshman classes, respectively. Sorority reporters include Eileen Finn, Alpha Omega, Kathryn Yowell, Beta Alpha Phi, Clara Barton, Kappa Tau Deltag Marie Smith, Phi Delta, and Anna Belle Smith, Phi Phi Phi. Reporters for the fraternities are Neale lVlcCee, Delta Psi Omega, Al Piegel, Lambda Chi Alpha, Kelley West, Phi Chi Phi, and Dean Seaton, Tau Nu Tau. Erma Lee Hill is the reporter for the Independent Students, Association. Bill Howard edited the sports section, and jo Ann Nance, jim Hays and Bob Harrison wrote the special features. The little men with the gleams in their eyes and Hash bulbs in their pockets are photographers Arthur Brown, john Boardman and john Shannon. Always close behind was joan Kuwitzky who was in charge of the snapshot section. jerry Ragsdale and Neale McGee helped Bill on the basketball, football and baseball pages. You should have seen those huskies cutting out Hgures to paste up for the engravers-playing paper dolls, eh boys? Helping jone in Scribblers Hall were Rommie Terrell and Marjorie Barton who pasted, measured, checked and rechecked pictures until we began to notice them calling students on the campus numbers QFD instead of by their names. Ah, forthe life of a journalistl After much cutting, pasting, writing, deleting and re-writing, the aforementioned staFf is happy to present to you+The 1947 Keshena! . . -Kathryn Yowell. .75- , ' 1 K Ga ze I W a I if E i ' :59:if5I::-:ga V ,:,, , E - , f is I2 i , W V E 4 ...Z : V T E : Zi, , 2 hill M i 'Q g li? ir 'll ff FIRST ROW: Erma Lee Hill, Arthur Brown, Merrill Samuelson, Ruth Tormohlen, Neale McGee, Alfred McFall SECOND ROW: Anna Belle Smith, Dwight Braiuard, Clara Barton, john Shannon, Kathryn Yowell, Kelley West.

The members are up bright and early to attend two dawn rehearsals a week, up dark and late to attend two evening rehearsals a week, and make at least one chapel performance a week. But diligence in their rehearsals has pro- duced an organization famous throughout the city and state. In a joint performance with the Orchestra, the Chorus-Choir presented a program of George Gershwin's music, Rhapsody in Blue, for the National Air Clinic at the Miinicipal Auditorium, October 16. This program, arranged and directed by Mr. Neilson, was repeated February 13, for the Oklahoma Education Association, and for the Varsity Revue on the campus, December 13 and 14. The Chorus-Choir entertained the East Conference meeting of the Okla- homa Methodist Church in Tulsa, October 17, and the West Conference meeting at Oklahoma City, October 25. 9 OFFICERS MARGARET I-IAsLAM,1,-,., ,.,,,.,,,,, ,,,, a ,M,,g,,, ,,,,,, m ,,-.

It was organized under the direction of Prof. Wayiie Campbell in I922 for the express purpose of building up a permanent organiza- tion of experienced players in the community. The main idea is not to make professionals out of the dramatics students, but rather to develop self- possession, poise and a better understanding of them- selves and others. This does not mean that some of them do not become professionals. Several of these former students are now in radio or teaching dramatics. One, Ann Steely fnow Cathy O'Donnellj , has one of the princi- pal parts in The Best Years of Our Lives, 1946's Academy Award film. A - 2 A During its 25 years of existence the College Players has produced 80 major plays Professor Campbell uses small working groups- usually eight or nine members to produce the successful plays which the organizationis noted for. 1 UNIVERSITY AWARDS IENNIE LOUCICS GirI's Leadership Trophy ,,,. , ....,...,,,,- -,-,, , ,--,---,,,,,,.,4,-,,--,- N h-Jyjd,-gdfgg Long ROTARY CLUB Boyis Leadership Trophy ..,......

The affirmative side was taken by Charles Gregory and Ira Williams, with Wanda Fidler and Paul Morrel on the negative. The subject debated was the national collegiate debate question: Resolved that labor should be given a direct share in the management of industry. Although neither team made the finals, it was un- doubtedly the most enjoyable trip of that type ever taken. The students of Spring Hill College had ar- ranged tours of the city of Mobile, Mobile Bay and Bellingrath Gardens. They reserved the Knights of Columbus hall in the city for the purpose 'of a vantage point from which tournaments participants viewed the Mardi Gras parade and the flower parade. The debate finals were held Saturday night in the Admiral Semmes IIO Hotel, followed by a semi-formal dance given by the college. Dr. Hayes accompanied a team composed of Wai--il - Pidler, Charles Gregory and Bob Chappelear to Tam:- quah, Okla., Feb. 28 and March 1. The team .rent through six rounds of debate undefeated, winning over Drury College, Springfield, Mo., in the finals. In addition to winning the debate trophy, Wanda Fidler placed Hrst in extemperaneous speaking, and Bob Chappelear placed second in the same event. Ar Durant, the O. C. U. teams attended the largest tournament of the current season, with 39 different col- leges representing eight states competing. Here, Wanda Fidler and Charles Gregory won Hrst place in the mixed debate team division, defeating Southwestern Louisiana Institute in the finals. Bob Chappelear and Ira Wil- liams reached the quarterfinals in the junior men's division. ln the individual events, Wanda Fidler and Charles Gregory made the finals in impromptu speaking, but neither placed. Wanda Fidler also won first place in the girls, division of extemporaneous speaking. After the successful Durant trip, O. C. U.'s debate team traveled to O. B. U. in Shawnee for its share of the prizes. The team' of Charles Gregory and Wanda Fidler placed second in the senior division while Paul Morrel and Bob Chappelear won first place in the junior division.

In the past the group has sponsored many worthy activities such as blood donations to the St. Anthony's Hospital, the building of the fireplace and barbecue pit on the west campus and an Eagle Scout banquet. 4 During the war years, the fraternity was inactive, due to the fact that most of the men were in service. The chapter was reactivated last year and sponsored the Christmas tree and a drive for toys for crippled children. This year it has led a rather stormy existence due to the very large turnover of both members and advisors. Present members include: Dwight Brainard, presi- dent, Ed Allred, vice-presidentg Frank Bunch, secretary- treasurer, and Lee Norton, Frank Armstrong and Homer Polk. Scouting advisors are lean R.

Kappa Sigma Phi plans to obtain prominent men from the field of law to speak on various subjects of their personal experiences that may later be of value to those in the fraternity. Kappa Sigma Phi aims to promote interest of pre- legal students, general welfare, general culture, and brotherhood. The colors are garnet and gold. The honorary sponsors are: I-lon. Thurman S. Hurst, chief justice, State Supreme Court, and l-lon. Mac Williamson, state attorney general. II For admittance to the membership of this pre-legal fraternity, one must be carrying I2 hours or more making a grade average of C or better. The members will vote on all new students Wishing to join and there will be no pledging. One of the outstanding speakers of the year was the I-lon. Mac Q. Williamson, Feb. 26, 1947. One of the outstanding events each year is a Buffet Supper and Dance. Dr. I-I. Wolff and Prof. L. A. Iones are the sponsors of Kappa Sigma Phi and their help and guidance in getting the fraternity organized has been deeply appreciated. 37 EPWORTH HALL Epworth Hall is the little building on the west campus.

IBRAR to get a a rein- a thousand feet of shelving fover three times the length of the football fieldj has been added to accommodate forced staff rolled up its sleeves and added mountains of books to the shelves, expanded the card catalog, kept the orders pouring out for more and more books, and served an ever-increasing student body. To be specific, the full-time staff of three people was increased to five, and the number of student as- sistants to 17. Mrs. Geraldine Smith, former librarian, returned from the Waves and graciously came temporarily to help catalog. Miss Hollis I-laney, O. C. U. graduate, came home from the WOI11C11,S Marine Corps and was signed by the library almost before she could get out of uniform. These two joined Mrs. Arthemise Samuel- son, librarian, Miss Ruth Dougherty, cataloger, and Miss Io Ann Weelcs, clerk. After the Marines and Navy had landed, the great push began, and eventually this year's staggering library statistics appeared. From Iune, 1946, when the new program began, to March 1, 1947, 5,230 books were placed on the shelves. This is more than one-fifth of the entire collec- tion. The catalogers broke all records during the sum- mer months when 53 books a day were placed on the shelves. ln addition, the library was given 314,000 for books from Iune 1, 1946, to Sept. 1, 1947, and nearly II the new books. Overnight the library outgrew ICS or ganization and separate order, cataloging and reference departments were set up. During October, nearly 7,000 people used the li- braryg this is the greatest number of patrons ever served by the library staff during a single month. Tables and chairs were added to enlarge the capacity of the reading room and to accommodate the increased student body. The O. C. U. Library maintained 'its reputation as a matrimonial bureau when Miss Ruth Dougherty and Miss Myrna Cummings became respectively Mrs. W. L. Butler of Evanston, Ill., and Mrs. Raymond Kunc of this city. The management is considering charging future staff members for the privilege of working in such a favorable spot!! Mrs. Arthemise Samuelson resigned April 1 after serving as head librarian since Ian. 1943. She was succeeded by Miss Frances Kennedy who came to O. C. U. from the Oklahoma City Carnegie Public Library where she had been head of the reference department. Also, on April r, Miss lean Mullman assumed the duties of reference librarian, a position she had held at the Carnegie Library. Si...

U. when the college unit was founded in 1944. Members have been active in the Canteen, Recreation and Motor Corps. Since 1944, classes have been offered in nutrition, first aid and home nursing. Mrs. O. T. Cooper, former sponsor, taught the Hrst nutrition class. Mrs. Rose Ellingson, the present sponsor, has been teaching home nursing classes, which may be taken for physical education credit. Seven trips were made to Will Rogers Veteran's II Hospital where entertainment and refreshments were provided. Sororities and fraternities offered skits and musicals at various times. The Canteen Corps served coffee and doughnuts one cold rainy morning in the Great Hall of the L. A. Building and another time at an all-school mixer. The National Red Cross drive was conducted, at which time a booth was placed in the Great Hall. Betty Io Boren, president for the second consecutive year, was in charge of all activities. . 6.4 RQ ZW i l Xxfggigve N653 ' er, ALPHA Another successful year in the history of Alpha Omega began with the traditional Red and Iade dinner at the Skiivin I-lotel during first semester rush season. Ac the fall bid house, I7 lovely girls walked from the auditorium and into the arms of the eagerly awaiting members. The big event of November was the annual Star- light Dance in the Mirror Room at the Municipal Auditorium, at which our pledges were introduced as an interested audience watched them walk down the Pathway of the Stars. One Friday morning in December as students en- tered the Eine Arts Building for assembly, they were greeted by a sniff of Heartbeat, a splash of Heaven- sent, and a whiff of 'iBlack Magic. Thus the setting was prepared for a very successful assembly, combining glamour galore and intoxicating aroma in The Perfume Bar. Camel the season of holiday geetings and good cheer and the A. O.s got into the Yuletide spirit at their annual Christmas party held with the alumna chapter. After a wonderful home-cooked dinner, the girls busied themselves by wrapping gifts which were distributed to the boys atithe Taylor home. The walkour first semester was a huge success, what with pledges chasing members in any and all directions. Despite skinned elbows, cracked shins, and other assorted bruises on the part of many, all ended lezippjily with a skating party at the Uptown Skating u . Walkouts call for rough initiation, so - with Ianuary in full stride, the members thought it well nigh time for action. Thus it is that Ieanne Wellinanis home still bears the marks of battle, and of what started out to be a slumber party. But who sleeps at a slumber party? - wr, L- f2gg,..f'ag,,,. OMEGA Second semester rush was highlighted by the Ae-- nual Ski-Hi dinner given at the Beacon Cl 1.f, iw, at-Ji, the Eirst National Building. Pour pledges were re- ceived at Spring Bid I-louse. O joy of joysl The year was made perfect for Alpha Omega by winning first place -in the 1947 Keshena Kapers on March 21. The girls put their hearts and souls into it and certainly came out smiling. The A. O.s have had efficient guidance by their sponsors, Mrs. Ethel Clifton, and Mrs. Lucy Stockwell, and their Patron Mother, Mrs. Madelle Iones . . . Mumsy to us. Talent in this organization runs rampant as is shown in the dramatic ability of Frances Mitchell and Mack Iones, the lovely voices of Jeanne Wellman, Virginia Voris and Dorothy Clark, and the musical inclinations of Louise Trice. Pep is supplied by Eeriba Pate, who is cheer leader for the Bravettes Pep Club, and transportation is pro- vided amply and quickly by glamorous Nickie Poarch and Vonnie Bauer-that green Hash was Vonnie's 1947 Buick, brand, spanking new! Beauty as well as brains is possessed by our mem- bers, and if you don't believe it, take a look at some of the girls who trapped a man for keeps this year. Among the newly engaged are Nadean Pittman, Shir- ley Page, Eileen Einn and Vonnie Bauer. The oiiicers this year were Vonnie Bauer, who wielded a wicked gavelg Louise Trice, able vice-presi- dent, and Nadean Pittman, rush captain. First semester secretary was Erances Mitcliell, while Elaine I-lutsell kept the minute book second semester. Shirley Page served as treasurer first semester and Dorothy Clark, second semester. -118- ALPHA OMEGA VONNIE BAUER OFFICERS I FIRST SEMESTER Vq:xz1x:IE BAUER... ..... -...-L,Pre.vident I,:,:'1,1,I.a3a LRICE ......

I BETA ,ALPHA PHI Under the leadership of beautiful, blonde Bennie Turner, the Beta Alpha Phi sorority has completed another successful year. The First in a series of successes was the pledging of 15 charming rushees at fall bid house. Next important event of the year was the ac- ceptance of Lambda Chi Alpha as its brother fraternity. The B. A. Phi pledge class, with Kathryn Yowell as president, joined 'forces with the Lambda Chi pledges to stage a successful walk-out. They treated the mem- bers with fried chicken, shoestring potatoes and pump- kin pie. ' The B. A. Phi Hoat which won first place in the parade on Band Day featured five pretty girls in shorts helping to row the Chiefs to victory. CThey did, toolj The Beta and Gamma alumnae chapters of B. A. Phi entertained the' active chapter at a banquet in November when the pledges enjoyed a square meal and the members enjoyed the show. Silver stars and big, red bows decorated Blossom Heath for the B. A. Phi Christmas dance when 16 new members were presented. The management of Blossom Heath thought the decorations so pretty that they purchased them to leave up during the entire holiday season. Three B. A. Phi lovelies, Betty Long, Carlene Morriss, and Billie Strong, were in the finals for Keshena Beauty Queeng and Betty Long, the tall blonde in the black strapless formal, was crowned at the Varsity Revue. B. A. Phi continued its series of successes by pledg- ing IO talented co-eds second semester. This pledge class chose Io Drew as their president and started their activities by presenting the program at Beta Alpha Phi's Thirty-Sixth Annual Reunion Banquet, Feb. 27. Bennie Turner, Carolyn Bloom and lone Wells were tapped for Cardinal Key, and Philelle McBrayer is president of that organization. 120 Pour more B. A. Phis were chosen for :'Who's Who this year. They are Bennie Turner, lone Wells, Iudy Hays and Carolyn Bloom. Philelle McBrayer and Margaret Peoples Haslam were selected for this honor last year. B. A.

Betty Lee Hearn, Sharlyn Pocock, Margaret Newman, Carol Neilson, Estalee Sikes, Penny Starr and Bunny Lane. Additional members of the sorority who wield gavels in other organizations are Indy Hays, president of the Princess Pep Club and the Pep Council, and Kathryn Yowell, who is president of the Spanish Club. lone Wells is editor of The Kesbena and also was secretary of the Student Council. Carolyn Bloom is treasurer of the Iunior Class, and Ruth Tormohlen is vice-president of the Bravettes Pep Clubf Two of the twirlers for the band are B. A. Phis: Midge Mitchell and Iudy Hays. During the summer Helen Emerson became Mrs. Henry Kalver and Margaret Peoples became Mrs. lack Haslam. First semester Wanda Lou Carpenter changed her name to Brower, and Lucille Harth be- came Mrs. Randy McGee. Peggy Richards is Hashing an engagement ring, and Penny Starr was pinned by a S. A. E. from A. 8L M. The Annual Spring Formal April 25 climaxed a grand and glorious year for the girls of Beta Alpha Phi. The girls wish to welcome three new patronesses, Mrs. Kenneth Draper, Mrs. Mose Simms and Mrs. C. R. Anthony, into the B. A. Phi circle. Mrs. Vera Neilson and Mrs. Roy Dillon, co-sponsors, and Dr. Hope Housel, patroness, have also helped to make the year a success. - BETA ALPHA PHI 4' - .5 , Q5 F A 'ii .

A I21' KAPP ,TAU DELTA With twenty-Five full and wonderful years behind them, Kappa Tau Delta started its twenty-sixth year by pledging eleven girls at the fall Bid I-louse. These new pledges were immediately introduced to the public at. an open house held at the home of Kay Shows. Katie ,McDonnold, pledge president, and the other girls kept the members in suspense for weeks by not having their walk-out. However, it was well worth waiting for-especially the party at Blossom Heath that climaxed the evening. According to tradition Bob Stockwell, chaperone, had his necktie cut to pieces for souvenirs. Football season began soon and the Katys worked into the wee hours of the morning to finish their Hoat for the home-coming parade. They made quite a show with their crepe paper decked convertible in which six young Indian maidens rode. Some portion of fame came. to Kappa Tau when Betty Baker was given a contract with the 'iOklahoma,' cast. She reversed the usual situation by leaving Bill Millii-en, her Hance, behind to wait for her. However distance made the heart grow fonder and she returned soon afterwards to marry him. Four other girls took the fatal step. Ioyce Rowley married Phi Chi Millard Woolsey, Iudy Maguire be- came Mrs. Willis Wlaeat, Jeanne Dowdy is now Mrs. Pat Denham and lean Garritson married lack Eaton. Ac Christmas O. C. U. took on the aspect of a southern plantation when the Katys used almost a bale of cotton for snow in their assembly. The effect of winter was given more reality by some helpful frat men who dropped snow from the rafters of the stage. But nature was even outdone when boxes of snow began falling down. First semester came to a close with the Hollywood social at which time the pledges acted as hostesses to the members with a swell party. 122 At mid-semester, Prexy Nedra Ann Z-.iiii lclil school with a diamond from Bob Pitt on her third finger left hand. Marion Putnam was elected to take her place. Erma Barton and Pat Derhammer did themselves up proud at the second semester rush party by cooking some Italian spaghetti that would have turned any cook green with envy. It seemed to impress the rushees for six girls were pledged. ' In February came the event of the year-the Kappa Tau Sweetheart Dance. Post-war conditions even pro- vided for the return of silver sweetheart pins with which the Katys pin their dates during the Hfth dance. This dance is traditionally saved for the Kappa Taus to pin their dates and receive their sweetheart kiss. Founders' Day Dinner is an affair that every Kappa Tau is sure to attend. The alums surprised everyone- pleasantly of course-by presenting two silver candle holders to the active chapter. Keshena Kapers came next. This year the skit was a musical number with Deep Purple for its theme. The trio number suffered many changes before it finally appeared on the stage because first Christine Magafos and then Dorothy Aitken came down with the Hu. Leap Week- SL11'e shot my budget all to heckn- was what everyone cried. But broke or not the girls chipped in to throw a Party at the Skirvin-Tower. To show that their hearts were really in the right place the boys were all treated to a cigar-'nough said. This year came to a close regretfully because it had been so perfect. Everything accomplished by the Kappa Taus can be accredited to the guidance of Mrs. Bo Rowland and Iackie Smith, sponsors, and to the cooperation of the members with each other under the leadership of 'the oflcicers elected by them.

C. U. Those gals may not study too awful much but they sure enjoy themselves. The Presentation Ball, Hrst dance of the fall session, was held October 4 at the Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club and I2 new pledges were introduced. Those girls were initiated at the end of the Hrst semester at rough and formal initiations held in January. Marca Finefroclc of the group was chosen by the freshman class as its queen last fall. Bet there isn't a Phi Delt who doesn't remember that night devoted to careful preparation of a Hoat for the Homecoming parade. Pretty red and white Howers and pretty girls and not even a mention in the awards list. My, how we cried! Varga Girl was the theme of a Friday assembly presented by I2 Phi Delta girls. Each of them repre- sented a month of ,the year, and put up some very strong competition for that old calendar. r Pattie Barry was president of Slia-Watlia Society, iVfarcine Heinrich was president of Bravettes Pep Club and vice-president of the sophomore class, Shirley Pletcher served as treasurer of the senior class, Waiida Pidler was secretary of the freshman class, Io Pinefrock was chosen by the Braves Pep Club for their sweetheart and Marcine was football queen. The gal we were really proud of was Carolyn Storer, who served second semester as president of the student body, the second girl president of O. C. U. in its history. Hats off to Carolyn! Cardinal Key Tap Day came around and four Phi Delta members became lowly pledges again to that honorary women's fraternity. The girls chosen are Martine I-leinrich, Bernice Kamp, Georgia Love and Carolyn Storer. The annual Christmas party was held in the home of Mrs. Everett S. Kennedy. I2 The Delta! Psis held rough initiation for its oiedgifjes in December and the Phi Deltas waited up for them at slumber parties. The members spent the night at Io Ann Nance's home and the pledges slumbered at Shirley Wrigl1t's. That was the night after Varsiry Revue and Ianie King's wedding. Parties! Someone was always giving one! ' -Bernice Kamp had an informal get-together one Sundayafter- noon in Pebruary. A horseback riding party was going on at the same time at Nichols l-lills for the more hardy members of the group. Novella Harrison gave a bridge party one evening also. Those Phi Delt bridge fiends! Bobby Currey's home housed four who sat up all one Saturday night playing that engrossing game. On March 2 Dorothy Ann West entertained some of her sisters with a party at her new home, 57th and Plowed Ground, right next door to Nichols Hills, for convenience's sake and those who like to horseback ride. Bernice Kamp was chairman of the Apportioning Board first semester. She was selected second semester for nWl1o's Wlao in American Universities and Col- leges. Margaret Long was given that honor last year. Those gals can really work at times. They won Varsity Revue ticket sales and the Christmas Student Council food drive. They worked on Keshena Kapers, too! A11 they did on that, however, was act natural. Clowns! The spring dance Phi Delta gave featured pretty girls in new spring formals and lots of flowers. it was held at Blossom l-leath on May 9. Those engaging Phi Deltas is a pun in this case because that's just what they all are. Dolores Baines, Carolyn Storer, Helen Dragg, Margaret Long, D. A. West, Ioanna Payton, Pattie Barry and Tommy Brantley have had their names taken off the available list by intriguing young men. 4.1 PH!

It was organized March 6, 1923eby nine girls and was ofhciallyrecognized as a womenis fraternity on Marcia 12, 1923. Since that time its members have held some of the most prominent positions on the campus, such as: librarian, editor of The Campus, football queen, beauty queen, Isis and Cardinal Key. Friendship is the motto of Tri Phi, silver and green are its colors.. Chances are when you see a girl on the campus wearing a corsage of white carnations around initiation season she is a member of Tri Phi because that is the sorority's flower. Through the help and guidance of the sponsor, Mrs. E. T. P. Ellingson, Tri Phi has profited greatly both in spiritual and social aspects. Mrs. Ellingson is active in many civic and professional organizations. She had charge of the Health Clinic at O. C. U. the past two years and is now teaching home nursing on the campus. Marjorie Bowins, a graduating senior, has served two years as president of Tri Phi. She is a member of the Pan-Hellenic Council, Pi Gamma Mu, International Relations Club and Slia-Watha Literary Society. Major- ing in English she plans to receive an A.B. Degree in May. One of the most active members of the sorority is Arra Brown who is serving as this year's vice-president. Because of her striking personality she has received various nicknames ranging from Birdie to Rosie She is a member of Pan-Hellenic Council and the Princess Pep Club. Mentioned often in connection with her glamour clothes is jenny Hargrove. AAs pledgemistress she dis- pellecl many a mischievous thought from the minds of unruly pledges. Paula Hopkins, an attractive brunette, reached the Hnals in this year's Beauty Queen Contest. Besides holding the office as secretary of the sorority she be- longs to Sha-Watlia and the Princess Pep Club. I Custodian and Historian Anna Belle Smith, another graduating senior, has been busy these days working off requirements for a teacher's certificate. Margery Caudill, treasurer, was chosen as this year's candidate for football queen. She is a member of Los Socios, Sha-Watlia and the Princess Pep Club. Highlights of the year were the various informal dinner and theater parties, the slumber parties before both bid houses and a Twelfth Night party in the home of Marjorie Bowins. In December the mothers of the active members were honored at a buffet dinner given by the members in the home of Phyllistice Fisher. Louise Stegelman, Graclena Bushey and juanita Tebow are pert little members Cas of januaryj who have found college life to be quite interesting. They agree that visiting in the Tepee is one of their favorite P2lSt1lT1CS. Gradena, commonly known as Dena, has con- tributed much to the sorority in the way of her artistic ability. She is a freshman art student at O. C. U. and is primarily interested in fashion designing. The members will long remember the roguish pranks of the pledges. They did everything from filling the members purses wich cracker crumbs to sewing the ends of their coat sleeves together. Social activities were ended this year with the traditional spring formal which was held in April. -126- . J., PH! PHI PHI : ' 1 zf?A5i.+wX' ,Mf ,.., , 3 MARJORIE BOWINS .

A., is open to all students who are not afhliated with any Greek social organization on the campus. The membership is open to men and women. The local organization is associated with the Na- tional I. S. A. and the members wear the national membership pin. Colors are green and gold. Under the able leadership of Robert Binkley, presi- dent for the second semester, the Independents have had a prosperous year. Ioye Hopkins walked off with top honors in the 1947 Keshena Beauty Queen contest at Varsity Revue. The magician really pulled out a beauty on that night. Second semester Student Council President A. E. Davis resigned to accept a promotion at The Okla- homan and Times. I-Ie is now north zone circulation manager for the city. Sylvia Burgess was selected by the War'1'iors Pep Club to reign as their queen for this year. A white jacket with red lettering was presented to her at the Warrio1's' Hrst annual dance. Erma Lee I-Iill is a leader among the students of O. C. U. and is a member of the Apportioning Board. She is working in the ofhce of Wesley Methodist Church. Independents are active in every Held. Bob Milli- gan is a Student Council representative and Ira Wil- liams is on the university Debate Team. Ira has brought home many honors with the rest of the Debate Team. The Independent boys have formed a soft ball team under the leadership of james Palmer and Don Gutt- ridge. If you want to know how good they are, just ask them. The editor-in-chief of The Campus is Ioan Ku- witzky. joan is the busy little bee around Scribhlers I-Iall, who keeps on everyone's tail about stories and deadlines. She's a good dancer, too. For glamour poses as well as informal shots, 'Arthur Brown is the man to see. I-le keeps busy taking pictures for The Campus. I-Ie takes good personal portraits, too. Gust a plug for you, Arthur.j Dorothy Kerr keeps busy between school and work- ing in the ofhce of the First Methodist Church. Dorothy is one of the occupants of Epworth I-Iall. Now more to the activities of the organization as a whole. Meetings are held once or twice a month, usually at an individual's home. After meeting, an informal party sometimes completes the evening. Sev- eral of these parties have been held at the home of Richard Penhallegon. Games, folk dances, and refresh- ments filled the evening. Another such party took place at Sue Breeding's, who is now Mrs. Herndon. Two such parties were held last semester at the Epworth Youth Center. Polk dancing was the main attraction for those evenings. Came Keshena Kapers, and the Independents did their part to make it successful. Donna Conner, Keshena Kaper representative, directed their skit into a tie for third place. The skit, Song Book, used a large song book for the backdrop, and songs from different Broadway hits were featured, including music from Oklahoma Ben Wlieat did a superb job of handling the MC work for Keshena Kapers. Ben's humorous jokes even went over. Dick Fleming aided Ben in many in- between-the-skit performances. So ended another great year for the Independents. I-Iere's looking forward to a bigger and better organi- zation next year. --I28l- ' if:-.

I2 , .ETD P DELTA PSI OMEGA S Delta Psi Cmega has once more proven itself as one of the top fraternities on the campus through an- other year of active participation' in school' and social events. Collecting many offices and awards Delta Psi has retained its superior standing on the campus. Starting off the Hrst semester with a bang Delta Psi pledged 40 men. Delta Psi has held the scholar- ship cup for so many years it now belongs to'the fraternity permanently. Collecting two of the class presidents, jack Harris, sophomore, and Neale McGee, freshman, and a vice- presidency in the freshman class, Carl Stephens, along with joe Campagna, treasurer of the freshman class, Delta Psi had good representation in school affairs. Three Delta Psi members were tapped for Blue Key, national leadership organization, the second semester. They were Carroll Dunn, Ed Delke and Paul Lovell. Ed Oelke was president of the Student Council the first semester and was selected for Wl1o's Wlio Among Students in American Universities and Colleges, along with Carroll Dunn and Paul Lovell. Paul Lovell also was a member of the Apportioning Board. Delta Psi won the inter-frat football title with plenty of rugged games played every Sunday afternoon. As usual Paul Lovell was high scorer due to his past eight years of football experience. He dropped varsity foot- ball due to an eye injury. Paul Parsons' cabin east of jones was a frequent rendezvous for Delta Psis and Phi Deltas to have little impromptu coke parties. Delta Psi is the brother fra- ternity of Phi Delta and if you want to End a Delta Psi on Moriday night just go to Phi Delta meeting. Delta Psi showed its usual superiority with two dances the Hrst semester instead of the usual one. The ,dance held at the Oklahoma Club was informal and the Municipal Christmas dance was formal. . Incidentally, it was a Delta Psi that gave the Fresh- 130 man Queen her traditional kiss flvfarca Vinefrock, Neale McGeeD, a Delta Psi that gave the Football Queen her traditional kiss QlVfarcine Heinrich, Paul Lovellj and a Delta Psi that gave the Braves Sweetheart her traditional kiss U0 Pinefrock, Raymond Lloydb. Wlaen there's more and better kissing to be done rest assured Delta Psi Omegas will do itll I , ,- The Delta Psi assembly, acclaimed by all as the best assembly in the last several years, was a master- piece of humor produced and directed by the T. S. twins, jack Turley and Yale Scurlock. It was received so well the boys came back and Put on another assembly which went over just as well. Lawrence Estes, Olen lvfiller, Charles Pratt, Carl Stephens, Chet Fox, Bob Wiese, and the T. S. twins did a fine job. Remember the T. S. impressions? Delta Psi, in the course of two semesters, produced numerous show parties, bridge parties, treasure hunts, poker parties and ice cream socials on Delta Psi birth- days. Delta Psi collected its share of engagements and marriages during the year and many Delta Psis, present and past, are lodged in the hearts of O. C. U. girls forever. Delta Psi had its own section at the stage play Dear Ruth, and 44 couples turned out. The boys are really great for sticking together. Delta Psi had the following men on the O. C. U. football team in their first season of college football after a layoff during the war years. Carl Stephens fcorn on the cob endb, jim Wliitaker, Gerald Lovell and Paul QI have too many womenb Lovell did a good job of helping the O. C. U. team run up an impres- sive season. Charles Cline, another Delta Psi, was one of the top notchers on the basketball team. Look in any sport, any activity, any event on the campus and you'll find the men of Delta Psi Omega. ,I-P' DELTA PSI CMEGA - i ----- gf- -fr ' . fr QL. I f: -:-: - 'f ...QT A :-:, , JAMES T.

Twenty-two men were initiated Ian. 25 and Hve more Feb. 1. Wliat with transfers, etc., our membership now stands at 35. The results of the rush banquet Feb. 7 were a promis- ing crop of 34 pledges giving us a total of 69 members and pledges. The Lambda Chi Annual Fall Dance was held Nov. I5 at Blossom I-leath to the music of Timmy Vaughn and his orchestra. Nlarch I5 is the date set for the annual St. Patrick's day dance. The Lambda Chi pledges merged with Beta Alpha Phi pledges in staging a successful joint walkout Nov. 22. In the spirit of Halloween, we decorated the house using an autumn theme, with cornstalks a-plenty. A tacky party was the occasion. Margaret Newnian, Mildred Mitcliell, Ted Mitcliell and Ad Acers suc- ceeded in appearing more ridiculous than anyone else and walked off with all honors. On Dec. 18, Lambda Chi and Beta Alpha Phi gave a party for the underprivileged children of the Sunbeam home. The children ranged in age from 5 to 8. We gave them presents, played games and fed them candy 'til they practically foundered. We acquired a new housemother in M1's. R. R. Renfro. She moved into the house Feb. 2 in lieu of Mrs. D. A. Iohnson. Marcli 7 is the date reserved for our assembly. We think it will be nothing short of sensational unless the newly founded self-styled Hayes fnot you, Iimj ofhce deletes it unmercifully. E12 hours later-I just checked with local Hayes office fno bearing on Dr. I-layesj and I mean that script was really obliterated so we arerft making any promisesj ln fact, We didn't present the assembly.1 132 Cn marriages: Raymond fFudj Frahf'-' 'wifi ar:- cepted by Warida Cole as husband Feb. 6. Engaged: it is divulged that Eileen Finn has rashly consented to an offer of marriage on Iune 11. Her opponent: Bill Qhe was a good kidj Elkins. -A On Feb. 4, the Lambda Chi fraternity house was the scene of a stag party for alumni, members and rushees. Interesting and educational games were played and, as a result, several members were stricken to the house for days. The depression had hit . . . Theta Delta Doings, the official monthly publica- tion of our local Lambda Chi Alpha chapter, made its initial appearance the first week of February. Com- posed of four pages, we think it's pretty darn sharp. Copies are sent to all local alumni, members and pledges and to each of the 114 Lambda Chi chapters throughout the United States and Canada. . The Lambda Chi Alpha Motl1er's Club is being formed and the alumni is reorganizing into a strong chapter. Good Friday is the date set for our annual Easter breakfast, one of the fraternity highlights of the year. Men1ber's and pledges customarily bring their mothers or sweethearts. fMy mother is out of the state and I can't get any girl to go with me so I am going to bring my pet raccoon.j Men of prominence: T. A. Byrd still reigns as president of the Inter-Fraternity Councilg Don rl-iowell also retains his exclusive claim to the title Sophomore Whose Forehead ls Most Likely to Recedef' H. N. Branyon is senior representative to the Stu- dent Councilg Ed Allred is sophomore representativeg Van Bullis is freshman representative. Bill I-Iambrick is secretary of the freshman class and Gene McCormack was elected Royal Ram.

The chapter set out this year to go strictly social and opened up the season with an informal dance November 27 at Blossom Heath with the Ramblers furnishing the musical atmosphere. Hostesses and chap- erones included Dean Iosephine Bell, Prof. Iames Boswell and Dean and Mrs. George Ryden. On October 7, the pledge walkout was unique in that it was successful for the first time in many a moon. After the walkout a party was held inthe Heath Annex for the members. Coach and Mrs. Bo Rowland chaperoned the affair. In keeping with the social leadership, the chapter held several informal parties during October in the homes of members including that of President Leonard Schwartz which Brother Schwartz said was very suc- cessful . . . at least in destroying one overstuffed chair by fire. ' The latter part of October saw Phi Chi Phi good will men fmembersj and Kappa Tau Delta sorority combined in a hay-rack . . . RIDE for their pledges. ROUGH . . . and formal initiation for twenty pledges was held December I4 and I5 and an informal party was given afterward for the new members. During the holidaysevarious informal get togethers were heldg and, New Year's Eve, Brother West wound up in Tulsa on a Dallas week end, other casualties reported were at Hahn Haven. Opening the 1947 spring semester Phi Chi Phi gave its traditional Cherry Pie Social at beautiful Hahn Haven with honorary member Kathryn Hahn I i as hostess, Dean Bell and Dr. and Mrs. A. C. Cleve- land chaperoning. I The Mother's Day Breakfast, another traditional affair held for Phi Chi mothers, was a huge success this spring. ., In May initiation was held for mid-term pledges and May 23 Phi Chi Phi wound up its year-long social whirl by giving a dinner dance. the last of the spring semester. Phi Chi Phi was justly proud of their skit, Truth or Consequences in the Keshena Kapers program sponsored annually by the Press Club. Although Phi Chi failed to place in the first three prize winning brackets, we feel it was one of the better skits on the program and was highly successful. The skit written especially for the Kapers by Kelley West and Leonard Schwartz, was also chosen along with three others to be put on at the Home Theatre in the form of a varsity show, later on this spring.

A raging epidemic of mar- riage became quite the fashion among our members and pledges, because the first semester saw Vic Hansen, Tom Hamilton, Harry Purdy, Tommy Gibson, How- ard Hennessey, Iohn McAulilf, and Clark Case succumb to the wiles of women. So concentrating our biggest efforts coward the pledges we threw a swellelegant party at Cvarlands. However, at walkout time we began to see that our hospitality was definitely behind us and the pledges in front of us. Those mffians proving too much of a match for they were handed over to big Bob Gale, who gracefully deposited his 240 pounds on top of them in a manner to delight even Emily Post. Bud Eagle and President Fred Lewis made with the Ioo yard dash through the middle of Paul's clothing store, bowl- ing customers in their Hight. Then with all members trussed securely they were spirited out to lim Welln1an's for drinks and hot dogs, singing, cards and gaiety galore. Soon after the start of school we had a huge time at our Masqtierade Ball at Blossom Heath with the Ramblers from Norman giving out with their con-4 sistently danceable music. Then the first assembly, provided by Tau 'Nu's, gave to the school its Hrst taste of pulchritude and twinkling toes from the Huntly School ofADance. The bright spot of that was the exposition of talent of some of our school luminaries. Football season introduced those dazzling white Coveralls with the striking design on the back, hot dogs, cokes, lop-sided victories and dancing at the Colonial Club afterwards. I Halloween spooks had a rampaging good time at Wellman's estate. The men walked off with the group prizes, pool exhibitionists, dancing cheek to cheek, tantalizing refreshments and beautiful women all added up to the season's social rave. Halloween gave way to December activities. Christ- mas time and I5 G. I. paid holidays were the next best thing to the guy with the beard himself. Between stag parties for the guys getting married we reserved a time, a place and a gal for our gay celebration. The Yuletide spirit embraced us all, and we embraced right back-the girls loved it. We took a good time with us and unwrapped it Hrst thing. Wlxy? For most of us it was the first civilian Christmas in years, that's why. As Leap Week neared the nominations for Royal Ram were made with Dean Seaton barely edging Mel Schene in a school voting. How the Hnal results are will not be printed in here as this had to be handed in at this time, therefore everything written from now on will rake place in the future, and lill have to fore-see events. Cn the plans for Leap Week, all our boys are being particularly nice to their chicks as a matter of future expectation. Here's hoping for plenty of dates, free rides, steak dinners, dancing, and necking. Our Keshena Kapers was a lot of fun for us, and everyone else, we hope. Our plan was to satirize all the wheels on the campus, including faculty. Of course spring weather, furnished by courtesy of the California Chamber of Commerce, will call for hay-rack rides, picnics, more of our famous group par- ties, more dates, less studying and swimming later on. Summer is starting to set in for good and once again the test time looms forbodingly ahead. So we all struggle through this, and on the day after school is out we hold our annual l:ounder's Day dinner-dance at the Biltmore. It was a swell year and we want to say thanks to the school and to all the fine friends we have come to know and to like so well. To the guys in the frat. see you later. ..,35..

FRONT ROW: lim Wade, Bill jordan, Ed Rotzinger, George Kemmer, Gus Langrell, Hoot Gibson, Bill Roberts, john Gavula, Buddy Goodall and R. A. Taylor. Andy Victor, highest scorer in the nation and a member of the All-Oklahoma team, didn't get that way from any lack of spirit, determination or drive. He ,penetrated the Siegfried line of opposition despite booby traps, land mines and Tiger tank foes. He did the Pennsylvania Polka while the enemy was waltzing. jim Wade was spectacular despite an injured hand and leg. His rhumba hips were too shifty to tackle and his second gear legs had too much pickup for the fleetest foe. ' Frank Bruno was quiet and studious. His 'grades paid him H550 in scholarship awards. Hank Kalver took his football seriously. He showed that by having learned the kind of psychology it takes to outguess the other team's plays before they were made. Center john Gavula was a 60 minute man. His versatility was recognized by a Philadelphia paper which chose him 'lineman of the Week. He was also awarded a radio and 11550 for his scholastic accom- plishments. Noble Dick Noble was so severely injured at Mississippi that he was benched for the season. How- ever, he gave a good account of himself before his injuries. . George Kemmer was the submariner who went under the lines for so many hard tackles. Playing his heart out in every game, George was in for good sports- manship and a love for the game. . Deroy Bergman Qthat's DEROY, sonj was an end that acted as much at home on the gridiron as he ,did- in civvy streets. There's a word for him-it's Rough! Main Mountaiii Al Frankunas and Father lvfarion Shirley have trouble buying clothes to fit them but on the gridiron they were a la mode. They were also able to get some unconditional surrender terms from a lot of men pitted against them. Warner Sponaugle, quiet and friendly, was too quiet it seems, for he was often overlooked. But every time he was given a chance to display his talent he was there and howl Little R. A. Taylor, no relation to Hugh, was never employed in a steady position. Because of his flexibility he was moved to H11 the bill as needed. Cliff Cunningham is the lean and lanky No. 77 who played so well on Thanksgiving Day. He helped beat the stuffing out of Dakota. john Brown was another assistant to che slaughter of Dakota. He showed up well against every team he met. jim Whitaker, who suffered a broken spine, was a main spoke in the wheeling defense of the Chiefs. Playing end, jim was always present until injured, and, against Fresno, drew a lot of praise from the coaches. Weldon Hambrick, old Crazy Legs, was hard to stop and harder to hold. An appendectomy finally took him off the .Held but not until he had indelibly written his name on O. C. U.'s scoring roster. 3 ' ei . . A ami.

Carl Allen, gridiron Ghost, ran, kicked and passed to win this high praise from Coach Rowland: Allen is one of the Finest backs in the nationf, Nuff said. Ed Backry, the Towhead Kid, was a deluxe passer and was often responsible for passes that counted. You can give back that Norden bombsight, Ed, itis not a top secret anymore. Big Gus Langrell didn't have any trouble getting acquainted with the opposition. I-le spent more time in their backfield than in his own and it was nothing for him to block four men at a time. I predict a pro .career for him whenever he wants it. c '- Prom Shawnee, Don Fauble came to the city to show 'ein how to play football. l-le was impressive with some of the finer points such as running, kicking and passing. I'-le wasn't a triple threat, though, he didn't make threats-he proved his point. Ed Rotzinger was like the tree planted by the water. He was not moved although injured early in the season. Tex Bradshaw, No. 24, never let up on the enemy teams until forced to Withdraw by the coaches. But it was good strategy to let him get back in the game when the going was roughest. Q Wlmeii Buddy Goodall wasn't pass snatching he was upsetting the invader's trickiest plays. Stiff-necked before the season's end, it didn't matter because he was always eyes frontn when on the playing Held. Carl Stephens, congenial and carefree, was 'a threat every time he was free for a pass. lVIany's the time his hard tackles drew groans from the gallery. Bill Iordan is a blocker hard to beat in any league. Always smiling when not playing football, he is a holy terror when given someone to tackle. I-Iolclenvilleis finest, Bill Roberts was one Bill who didn't wait for the Hrst of the month to demand atten- tion. Roberts, from his center position, was able and accurate despite an injured leg. Hoot Gibson was in the game sans spurs but he rode every break to the limit. Wlaen you say hats off to I-loot, be sure it's a ten gallon, suh. Dick Chicago Carpenter-Chicago's the windy city and Carpenter created quite a breeze by plunging through the defense of other teams for tackles.

BASKETBA L The most rapid-climbing sport of the day, returned to Oklahoma City University this year after a lapse of five years,V'is basketball. Considering the fact that the Chiefs had no gym that fcould be called their own and a late start in practice sessions they had a respectable season standing of seven won and nine lost. On any athletic aggregation there is always a leader in the scoring department and for the Chiefs it was big Hugh Taylor pouring 184 points through the hoops for better than a I2 average per game. ln the opening game of the season the O.C.U. squad was drubbed 65-35, by a powerful Texas Wes- leyan five, but rebounded the following week and defeated Abilene Christian 49-48 for their initial win of the season. ' Next in line on the schedule for the Chiefs was a home and home series with the potent Wichita Shock- ers and in both outings the Oklahoma quintet were on the tail end of the scoring, 56-41, 74-34. The Chiefs then hit a three-game winning streak in down- ing Mexico University 45-43, Hardin College 45-43 and Austin College 41-35. Coach Sherman's charges again were confronted by the powerhouse from Texas Wesleyan and again they succumbed, this time the Hnal score reading 72-39. ln their next foe the Chiefs mct their only state foe, Phillips University. This resulted in a split, with the f-laymakers taking the first contest 44-38 and the Chiefs coming back to win the second encounter 49-39. The next quintet to face the local five hailed from below the Mason-Dixon, the Gentlemen from Centen- ary, both entanglements resulted in reversals for the O. C. U. hoopsters 50-49 and 54-41. The First game being a heartbreaker to lose for it was lost in the last two seconds of play. . In three double bills played at the auditorium the Chiefs bowed to a fast breaking Denver five 66-48, and triumphed over Hardin 50-40 and Austin 43-39. The scores of these games do not tell the full story or give an accurate account of the team as a whole or the individual performances given by team members. They were awarded letters on the basis of time played and team cooperation. Other squadmen to see action during the ,46-,47 playing season were: Bob Pritchard, lim Wallace, Pat Oilieefe, West and Robert I-lerring. R0 D-UP Wichita, the Chiefs' first home opponent of the season, is a member of the Missouri Valley Conference, which includes the basketball champs from Oklahoma A. Sl M. Also in this conference is St. Louis. U., victors over the champs twice during the past season. That was the type of competition that Wichita played all year, so surely you and I don't hold a gratis, against the O. C. U. five for being the victims of twin reversals. One of the most potent squads in the nation was another of the Chiefs, opposition. Texas Wesleyaii Hnished their season as one of the highest scoring teams in the nation, with one of their men being the highest scorer in the nation. Many of you saw the Hrst encounter with Cen- tenary in the Classen Gym. If you remember as I do the Chiefs were leading all the way until the dying moments of play when a reserve guard entered the game for the Gentlemen and sank the winning bugket in the closing seconds of play. Witli breaks like this no team can win ball games. g ,jf Several people have asked me why the Chiefs failed to run up a higher score against the runts from the University of Mexico. Well here is the situation, when your own school is pulling for the opposition what else can you do but take it easy on them. QThe other team l mean.D During the year the O. C. U. roundballers played but one state foe, that being Phillips University from Enid. This resulted in a split with each team win- ning on their home court. If you have ever seen the Enid gym you will understand why the Chiefs failed to scorch the webs, while playing in the I-laymakers' gym. When the Chiefs had their run-in with the Colo- rado squad from Denver they were really asking for it and got it, but nevertheless they gained a lot of experience. The night before the Denver quintet had given the high and mighty Sooners from Oklahoma U. a hard fight. Cbelieve me, for l was an eye-witnessj Getting down to brass tacks Cdon't know Where you can find themb, the Chiefs had a respectable season, for a great number of reams in the nation failed to end the season with a 400 plus average, as did the O. C. U. hoopsters. -145- f.,,,...

Here's how the Chiefs scored in the 46-47 season: NAME FG FT PF TP Hugh Taylor Mawin Speight Don Powers Charles Cline lim Wade Truman Perry Bill Roberts Charles Bauer lim Wallace Pat O'Keefe Robert Edwards Herbert Hefeieg Iohn West 75 33 27 183 43 44 65 130 36 28 42 1 oo 3 1 28 41 90 33 21 37 87 1 3 2 7 28 9 7 I4 25 3 927 25 3 o o 6 1 2 2 4 2 7 o II o 2 2 2 o o 1 o SQUASHBALL SHOTS- Probably the easiest during the 46-47 season peared to be taking it game. Charley proved handlers on the squad. going of the Chiefs quintet was Charley Cline who ap- easy every minute of every to be one of the best ball When speaking of comedy, one might think of the times that big Hugh Taylor stretched his big frame over the runts from Mexicog or, when lVlarv Speight threatened to whale the daylights out of some five foot six giantg or, the sight of Ween Don Powers tearing down the court on his stubby pins, or, better still, Indian lim Wade shooting constantly on one of his cold nights. Before the season was over Iim 'iRed Rock Cola Wallace had signed a contract with a bird seed company for the use of his glorihed legs. It has been rumored that Kongi'Q Edwards has signed with a bench manufacturing outfit to test benches. All these oddities go to make a good season in any league, for if the troops can't have their fun they are unable to give their all to the cause. -,,.,,,x BASKETBALL IS BRIGHT If one were to look into the future of basketball for the Chiefs the outlook would be very bright, for the foundation of next year's squad is laid, due to this year's activity in this athletic field. Next year's season should be a more profitable urn' for experience is a great asset. When Coach B, Sherman started this season he had exactly nothing ' begin with, for there were no holdovers from the pe- war squads, and no definite place to practice. Football was still in full swing when the coach announced that basketball practice was starting. Since Coach Sherman is line coach for the football squad, this meant that he could not devote full time to both sports. For several weeks the hoopsters worked on their own, under crowded conditions in the Taft iunior High gym. Of all the men that reported to the Hrst. practice, there were only a handful that had had any 'College experience, and this is not a welcome sight to any coach. - ' One by one Coach Sherman began to sift the likely prospects and it wasn't long until his squad began to take form. . Opening the season against a powerful Wichita squad didnit exactly help matters, for the student body was yelling to the high heavens for a winning team. These are only a few of the troubles encountered by Coacl1 Sherman in his first year, and might l add rhar the coach met all the obstacles with great finesse and courage and did a top flight job. Next year the situation should be somewhat better, for it is understood that a new gym will be ready for use by the first of the fall term, and all of this year's squadmen have at least two more years eligibility with the exception of lanky Hugh Taylor. Returning next year will be Don Pee Wee Powers, the fast traveling little guard, who kept the fans in an uproar throughout the season, Marvin Speight, the tranquility kid, Iim Wade the one-hand push-shot artist, and Charlie Chuck Cline, the easy- going guard. I Among the many men expected to come through next year are: lim Wallace, the Red Rock Cola Kid, Bob Prichard, Charles Bauer, the rebound artist, Tru- man Perry, Pat O,Keefe, and it is rumored that Charley Evans an All-Stater from Central is expected to enroll in time for the fall term. i With all of these men and added facilities the basketball program for next year looks very bright and a number one season is on the way. Before signing off for the season I want to con- gratulate Coach Eugene Bo Sherman and his ,46-,47 basketball squad for their performance on the maples. -143- we WL -sg! Java f. ,W zwff Q 9.

Ac the time of this article there are five games left to play. The Chiefs have slowly, but surely, worked into a fast, hard hitting ball club. ln their Hrst game the Chiefs pounded lxlorth- western State Teachers College I2-5 in their opening game of the season at Alva, Oklahoma. lack Houchin reed off on the mound with Glen Fowler and Carroll Bogard following. Each hurler pitched three innings. I-louchin did a good job striking out four men While allowing only two hits. Fowler had the roughest time due to a constant rain during his three inning stint and all of the runs came in while he was on the mound. Bogard allowed only two hits, struck out three men, and gave a very creditable performance. The Chiefs have shown mighty power in one game, only to hit a slump in the next. Wlien they're hot, they're really hot. The Chiefs have Won eight and lost six at the present time and have high hopes of finishing the season with Hve more wins. The boys have given a Hne showing for 0. C. U. and have put their un- divided time and efforts to the baseball team. lack lsler is a fast moving, quick thinking short-stop and has acted as field captain at various games. lsler, Carpenter, Taylor? all have gotten in their share of the extra base blows and we predict there will be more before the season ends. 150 PITCFIERS: Carroll Bogard, Glen Kyle, Kelley West.

They also furnished O. C. U. Pennants for the 'basketball game with Phillips University. The Pep Council had charge of the half time activi- ties olf the game in which football queen Marcine Heinrich was crowned. They also displayed the float during the half at one of the football games. 54-' ' . .3 K L 4 3.53. .A El .1 ...Q l ,.P ' Q Q UUIQPER LEFT: BRAVES-lim Lechtqnberg, lack Roberts, Iames Biggei-staff, Bob Dickinson.

C. U. campus. Classes began April 1 for the dark skinned fellows. English and physical education were taught on the campus. Technical aviation training was taken at Will Rogers Field. The students, chosen for outstanding aeronautical ability, were brought to the O. C. U. campus by a project designed to teach air traflic Procedure to all nationalities.

U. looked like Boys Town in September, 1946, when school started with a bang to bring an all-time high in enrolment. Two hours of fun were spent in the O. C. U. Library where the Student Council sponsored the first all-school mixer. That was just before the opening football game and all were asking, lust how bad will O. C. U. scalp the Ply boys? C27-OD. Announcement was made of the newly-organized Princess Pep Club. They started fine but lack of cooperation made them scarce at sport events. Sororities rushed under the new quota system- frats were unlimited. Climax came at bid house on September 29. The students held a homecoming parade sparked by bands from all over. Social organizations vied for activity point prizes by entering floats in the parade. O. C. U. downed Henderson College of Arkansas 58-o. ' OCTOBER ' Homecoming Day was celebrated with a bonfire and the Fresno State football game, which was another shellacking by the home team. Marcine for Queen slogans must have done all kinds of good, for Miss Heinrich was ably assisted to becoming our football queen. By train, by car or by what have you, O. C. U. traversed to Wicl1ita. They were there long enough to make some of the Wiclaita kiddies mad-28-o's worth in football terms. The long string of dances was started by the Phi Delta sorority which held their Presentation Ball at the Golf and Country Club. Elections supreme reigned when class ofhcers were elected. Pinal victors for class presidents were A. E. Davis, seniorg Ben Wlaeat, junior, lack Harris, sopho- more, and Neale McGee, freshman. The Delta Psis honored their new pledges at an informal dance at the Oklahoma Club. The O. C. U. Chiefs were beaten in a heart- breaking game for their only loss of the football season. ' NOVEMBER 'u I After illegal entanglements over exactly who could run, Marca Pinefrock was elected by the freshmen to be their queen for the year. , ' ' The Bug ceased to be-The Tepee came to take its place, with bridge games and everything. , The next in the line for dances was the Tau Nu Tau' masquerade ball held at Blossom Heath with Ramblers furnishing the music. Not to be outdone, the Lambda Chis rented Blossom Heath to entertain the student body at a semilformal dance and vie for the title of the best hosts. G, The following week, right before the Thanksgiving holidays, Phi Chi Phi gave their fall dance. Next? ff O O y DECEMBER P Barbecue and square-dancing were enjoyed at an all-school mixer held at Epworth Church. .jr 'iis' was held. to honor the members of our illustrious football team. ' Lovely decorations at the B. A. Phi dance heliiiil to make it a fitting start for the Christmas season. Varsity Revue was held in the Fine Arts Auditorium December I3 and 14, under the sponsorship of the Press Club. lone Wells, KESPIENA editor, was general chairman with Neale McGee acting as master of cere- monies. Beauty queens Ioye Hopkins and Betty Long were picked from a bevy of beautiful young ladies. Football season ended with everyone satished with the outcome and basketball got off to a good start. Delta Psi Omega aided the Christmas festivities with a softly lighted dance in the Grotto Room of the Municipal Auditorium. The boxing team started a trail of bloody-noses here and there. A. E. Davis was elected Student Council president in an election held in the auditorium during assembly. There was some clissention about the way the election was held, but after all feelings were soothed, A. E. was still the winning candidate. Christmas holidays arrived. - IANUARY 0 Blue Key and Cardinal Key thrilled 23 students by tapping them in a special assembly. -,5g.. -1 T E 'C 27' foil . . i. . . . .CALENDAR Kappa Sigma Phi, pre-legal fraternity, was formed on the campus. Second semester rush began with everyone eyeing the prospective rushees with that hungry look in his eyes. A , - . A. E.. Davis resigned as Student Council president to be replaced by one of the feminine species, Carolyn Storer. . f Nine students completed their school days by graduating at the mid-year break. , Second semester enrolment brought even more stu- dents tlfian ever before to ye olde Alma Nfater. 1' ' FEBRUARY ' 'l C. U. became accredited by the Boston Educa- tionf'Board. ivijffltfe M. S. M. invaded O. C. Ufs campus bringing students from all over the state. M House was held as the climax to the mid-year i-'i 5 ir Twenty of the uhoity-toity were elected to Whois Who. Some have it and others donit. Valentine's day was ably celebrated by the Kappa Tau Sweetheart dance held at Blossom Heath. The boys were kissed here-but good and in public! Deanna Durbin used C. C. U. as the object of a publicity stunt. She doesn't care what we think about beards. ' MARCH ' Leap Week, ruled over by Campus Sweetheart Xochitl Orrell and Royal Ram Gene McCor'nack, hit O. C. U.'s campus. The fellows voiced the opinion that they would like for this to last much longer than just a week-the girls dished out the necessary cash. The Lambda Chis went Irish on us and entertained at their St. Patrick's Dance, again at Blossom I-Ieath. Keshena Kapers ended days of work and anguish with a very successful evening. The Alpha Omegas and Delta Psis walked off with the prizes while Bennie Turner made a lovely Keshena Queen. Dean Clifton's honor rolli' appeared and a variety of 'istrangen faces appeared in classes. The Warrior Pep Club held a formal dance at the Mirror Room when they introduced their queen, Sylvia Burgess. ' APRIL ' The South Americans arrived- Saludos Amigos. The Braves entertained at an informal dance at the Huckins at which their queen, Io Einefrock, was honored guest. Intramural sports started with balls flying thick and fast. We also found the students braving the California weather to watch the varsity baseball club knock the balls around. The Tri Phis put their thumb into the social pie by entertaining at the first spring formal. Following in true spring fashion, the B. A. Phis held their dance at Blossom Heath. New ofiicers were presented. The students lined up their cars to help O. C. U. launch a million-dollar campaign. We hope it helped. '89ers Day brought beards, guns, blue jeans and cowboy boots to the campus. A rip-roarin', gun- shootin', tobacco spittin' time was had by all. ' MAY ' Commencement! Dances again with the Delta Psi dinner-dance at the Country Club-followed the next week by the Phi Deltas entertaining at Blossom Heath. Exams were there, but with spring fever, who could do them justice. Phi Chis danced and ate all in one evening, too. The Tau Nus ended the season right with their annual dinner-dance the following night. Of course all the fond memories aren't here. There were hay-rack rides, picnics, parties and treasure hunts at which we all had so much fun. Then there were walk-outs during which the fun was mostly one-sided. Pledgeship was topped by initiation, and jeweled pins were shiny and new. Endearing to so many were the beautiful marriages in which a sweet young thing or an eligible male was stricken from the list. , 1946-47 was indeed a great year. l W L 44,7 V F QE U -1 x, Q , .JJ N- ,fvw - ' ORGANIZATION STUNTS KESHENA KAPERS -1 LEFT TO RIGHT: Ione Wells, general chairmang and Ben Wheat, master of ceremonies, look over the Kapers scripts: Charles White practicing his musical numberg Dick Fleming gets a new face from Clovis Putney. -16o- , 'IX Office Supplies 0 Typewriters Furniture Allen Wales Adding Machines A 432 325 North Broadway .

According to the Metluodist bulletins this great year with its large enrolment was through the efforts of C. Smith. I am here to give credit to Uncle Sam. That man, bless him, sent plenty of his naughty nephews home to clutter this institution and make life more interesting. How 'bout that, gals? Of course, they made your classes crowded and the scramble for grades much more difficult, but it has been a pretty swell year. Things that we'll never forget happened this year and to recall old memories do you remember, -The endless string of dances. --The engagements and marriages which took place during the year. -Sorority and fraternity rush. -Bridge games, Hearts games, pinochle games. -How jammed the TE-PEE was in spite of the enlarging. -What a powerful football team we had sparked by Andrew High-scorer Victor and Iim 'ilsadies-man Wade. -The T.S.,' Twins and the Navy Nledics. -The Phi Delta slumber party to go out after the poor freezing Delta Psi pledges. -I-low Ruth Tormohlen swooned over Roger. It must be! -I-low the girls talked about T. A. Byrd. Do You Know? -The mad love affair that Willingham carried on in his little green Ford almost anywhere. -How Paula Hopkins blossomed into a lovely young lady. -Varga Calendars--or C. Q.'s folly. However, it might be the lack of itg folly, that is. -The requests for baby sitters which appeared I on the bulletin board. The question was, just exactly what baby? ls she cute? l -The many queens. Look at them, though- purty sharp! , s -Keshena Kapers or Blood, Sweat, and Tearsf -Iudy Hays tooting her own horn. I -The birthday parties and ice cream socials given by the Delta Psis. -Vonnie Bauer and Nlarjorie Bowins and their men friends. Finally. --Kay Shows giving plenty of the stronger sex a hard time. Iust where does her love lie? -- Lennie Schwartz and Paulich Lovellsmiving for the title of B.M.O.C. -A11 the real sharp post war cars-Vic Iones' included, so there. -Tiny Chester Fox. -The Bravettes colorful uniforms made to go with the Braves jackets. It would have been nice if they had turned out to the games, wouldn't it? -I-low many girls were left out of sororities be- cause of the quota system. We didn't notice it doing so much of what it was supposed to do. There are still small sororities. -The Phi Chis and Kappa Taus sitting in I.P.'s car. -Bob Eichor telling tall tales. -Mel Schene thrilling the ladies? --Al Fiegel putting up signs letting girls know he is available. What's the matter, boy? With all that personality, too. The rest of the remembrances are left to you and you alone. Of course, all the big moments aren't here. Maybe the most important name, namely yours, isn't here, either. Keep pluggin' fella, there's always next year. Be seein' ya'. 64- :mf-', - ,., . '71-55? Ag: . . V,,..,- L ,.

I say this in view of the nodding heads in class and sloven hands of bridge being played at The Tepee. Leap Week opened with an open house, a la Tau Nu-Tau, entertaining the Phi Delts and the Alpha Omegas. We hear more of that now famous TNT punch was served. Delta Psi Omega also held a big open house. Tuesday night many a goil took the date to the band concert. Of course, the fact that it was practically free outside of a sandwich, had nothing to do with it. Then Wednesday night the Phi Delts had a Kid Party at the home of Bette Io Bender that was strictly the social rave. The B. A. Phis lavishly entertained their dates by taking over the Stratosphere Room atop the First National Bank Building. A very wonderful buffet supper drew more than its share of participants, as did the dancing, pinochle, and bridge. The two lumi- naries of the evening were the Campus Sweetheart, Xochitl Orrel, and our Royal Ram, Gene McCori1ack. Bennie Turner was extremely popular because she was last seen about midnite driving past the campus with her car packed with girls and their dates. ' And then came the grand Hnale Friday night, between the hours of 8:30 and 11:30. Leap Week came to a very delightful close with an all school mixer dance in the Grotto Room of the Municipal Audi- torium. Again the girls were at their hest pulling bottle caps behind the coke counter and furnishing a smile along with the free refreshments. The Sooners gave out with plenty of that wonderful dance music and their vocalists were nothing but fine. Many Hoor shows were going on throughout the closing minutes of the evening such as human ladders plucking down the colorful balloon decorations, and students making off with Lil Abner, Popeye and Olive Oil of the Comic Strip turned out by the O.C.U. Art Department. I'rn quite sure the members of the faculty that were there to make the evening ofhcial enjoyed themselves as much as the students. To make the ending of festivities perfect many went to Beverly's and other local food shops and had whatever their little hearts desired. Girls, we're sure we include the sentiment of all the fellows who bene- fitted by this fine Leap Week in saying you did a swell job in being Finance Department for a week.
