Text from Pages 1 - 182 of the 1947 volume:

'Me 1947 KESHENA OKLAHOMA CITY UNIVERSITY 7 Often in order to progress it becomes necessary for tradition and long established custom to give way to new trends and ideas. Thus it was that the Qkla- homa City University Alumni Association met this summer to decide whether the newly organized foot- ball team should resume the title of Ufioldbugsn or adopt a new name. It was decided that the Ufioldbugsi' were to be known as 'iChiefs.', This started the series of changes which resulted in the Bug, school cafeteria, now being called The Tepeeg the school emblem being changed to a Chiefis head as evidenced by Dr. Smith taking down the Scarab, former symbol of O. C. U., Sphinx Literary Society, oldest organization for women on the campus, being changed to Sha-Vxfatha Literary Society, and finally 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 canying 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 flying swiftf' The name as used signihes The Chief or The Keshemz. Scarab Stunt Nite, the night of entertainment spon- sored each year by the yearbook was changed to Keshena Kapers. With this brief explanation, the editorial staff takes pleasure in presenting The 1947 Kesloemz to you. -Ii. FINE ARTS BUILDING LIBRARY -1?

Q. ssiim TO THE CLASS OF 19471.11 Welcome to Oklahoma City University traditions- this first volume of The Kesbemz, the kaleidoscope through which we shall view the interesting variety of patterns of campus capers and progress in 1946-47. Herein are reflected the rapid, progressive realization of cherished ambitions of students, faculty and ad- ministration. Nlay Keshemz, 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 campus of more than 1,500 men from the battlehelds 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 j1i36o,000.00 in- debtedness, the assets quadrupled, the endowment in- creased ji500,000.0og the enrolment grow from 1,100 to 3,8683 the library, with 10,000 new volumes, moved into its new home, a pipe organ installed in the auditorium, a new cafeteria built on the campusg 163 apartments for Cvlis built at Will Rogers Field, and more than fiB200,000.00 worth of teaching equip- ment added. The faculty has been doubled. U. C. U. has been accredited by the University Senate, and the School of Nlusic by the American Association of Schools of Miisic. 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. Nlay 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. Qui' interest, best wishes and prayers will follow you. C. Smith ...IO.1 FACULTY L. L.

From someone s portable, the sentimental strains of uSerenade to a Nlildcwed I-Iollyhocku waits softly. Characters.: An enormous peanut butter blonde, 6 feet 4 inches tall, who is champion woman wrestler of the Cklahoma Physical Education Institute For Athletically Minded Cirls. Une 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. He has not yet been exposed to womanis purpose in life but suspects the worst. I-Iis name is I-Iomer Sneed. Dialogue: Agnes: Ccoylyj Tell me, I-Iomerg what have you planned for tonight after fraternity meeting? I-Iomer: ftimidlyj HOI1, I thought I might start writing my thesis on 'lThe Sap of the Eucalyptus Tree and its Effect on Litmus Paper. Aggie: Cspeaking in a mellow baritone, An en- riching plan. Tomorrow night the O. C. U. Band is giving a concert. This is Leap Week, you know: would you like to go with me, hmmmmmmiw I-Iomer: Cstartledj UI have to stay home and write a theme on i'The Albatross, Its I-Iabitat and Its Eggs in Comparison With Those of the Common I-Ien for Use in Omelettesf, Aggie: Ccocking an eye belligerentlyb K'That sounds gay. I-Iow about coming over to my apartment Wednesday night and seeing my picture album?', I-Iomer: Cis stunned but manages to recoverj Oh, I couldnit 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. Aggie: Cinterestedj You mean to say you've never been out with a girl, I-Iomer?', I-Iomer: Of course not, silly: I'm only 18. Be- sides, I wouldn't have time for it now that my Baby -4 Sitting Service is operating full time. Conhdentially, I've also put a lot of my time in trying to cross an Avocado with a Brussel Sprout and grow a ready-made salad. Aggie: fslylyj 'Cirls can be exciting, Homer. I-Iomer: Qpuzzledj i'What do you mean by that?', Aggie: 'lWell-,H frespecting his innocence, never mind. But there's an all school dance Friday night at the Municipal I could take you to. I-Iomer: uThanks, but-3' Aggie: It won't cost you anythingf, I-Iomer: Qhesitantlyj 'lWell--H Aggie: l'And after the dance Weill go out to some nice quiet respectable spot like Louiels i29, Club where we can dance to the slow, sweet rhythm of Willie Green, his Cello and his Nine Tittering I-Ialf Wits playing that dreamy waltz, Down On The Parmf, fAuthor's note: If you leave through a back window you can miss the constable at the door.D I-Iomer: Qfranticallyj I canit dancef' Aggie: fsmuglyj You,ll learnf' I-Iomer: fhis voice at high pitchb 'KCan't we play chess? Aggie: farousedj UShut up. Ilm furnishing the car and it's not costing you anything. I-Iomer: fnow bordering on hystericsj 'KI can't go through with itl Aggie: Qher patience exhausted, she brings her nose up to his and growls menacingly through gritted teethj UYou'll go or Iill break every bone in your fat head! I-Iomer: fterrihed, he gasps brokenly between sobsj : I'l1 go. I'11 do anything you say. But promise not to make advances at meln As curtain is pulled, Agnes may be seen pulling the reluctant Homer fwearing huge iron manaclesy by the ear, out the door of The Tepee. As they near an armored car bearing the nameplate 'lAgnes Voor- heesi' parked at the curb, I-Iomer may be heard to scream protestingly, But I have to be home at nine! Agnes then hats him over the head with a 12-pound bludgeon and the play is over. 6.-.

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. ln 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.

C. U. The faculty advisor is appointed by the president of the University and the students are appointed by the Student Council. Each student is assessed ten dollars each semester which is put into the funds of the apportioning board and is allotted as follows: 514,000 goes to the athletic association, 57,000 goes to The Keshena, 32,500 is for The Campus, 35250 is for the Handbook, 3100 is for the Student Pep Council, 3150 for each concert and play that the music department and dramatic department have, with a maximum of four produc- tions or 15600, 3200 was set aside for the Student Christian Association, 3250 for the Stage Fund. An- other lizoo was approved by the Board to be set aside IIS ll YCSCYVC.

C. U. So The Scarab bowed out and The Keslaena was born. lone Wells was chosen to be editor of the first Keslnemz, and Frank 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 my judgesf, 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, March 21. Thanks to jone's ability to be in half a dozen places doing many jobs at one and the same time, the event Cfor- merly Scarab Stunt Nitej was a huge success. Other members of the staff who aided jone are class editors Margaret 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 Delta, Marie Smith, Phi Delta, and Anna Belle Smith, Phi Phi Phi. Reporters for the fraternities are Neale McGee, Delta Psi Qmegag Al Fiegel, Lambda Chi Alpha, Kelley West, Phi Chi Phi, and Dean Seaton, Tau Nu Tau. Erma Lee Hill is the reporter for the lndependent Students, Association. Bill Howard edited the sports section, and Io Ann Nance, jim Hays and Bob Harrison wrote the special features. The little men with the gleams in their eyes and flash 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.

The College Players is the oldest departmental organization on the campus. lt was organized under the direction of Prof. Wayne Campbell in 1922 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 - ......,.,......

Dr. Hayes, president of the Oklahoma Collegiate Forensic Association, has resumed the coaching of the team through a successful year climaxed by its acceptance into Pi Kappa Delta. Eligibility for membership in this honorary debating fraternity is attendance at five debates. The debate squad is composed of Bob Chappelear, Wanda Fidler, Charles Gregory, Paul Morrel and Ira Williams. Accompanied by Dr. Hayes, a four-man team traveled to Mobile, Ala., and participated in the Hrst annual Azalea Debate Tournament, conducted by Spring Hill College, Feb. I4 and 15. 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: i'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 tournament 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 Wanda Fidler, Charles Gregory and Bob Chappelear to Tahle- quah, Okla., Feb. 28 and March 1. The team went 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 first in extemperaneous speaking, and Bob Chappelear placed second in the same event. At 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 first place in the mixed debate team division, defeating Southwestern Louisiana Institute in the finals. Bob Chappelear and Ira Wil- liams reached the quarterhnals in the junior men's division. In the individual events, Wanda Fidler and Charles Gregory made the Hnals 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. Ufs 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.

Taking advantage of the summer months to get .1 running start on this bigger than ever year, a rein- 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 studeIIt 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 l-lollis Haney, O. C. U. graduate, came home from the Women'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 Weeks, 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 a thousand feet of shelving Cover three times the length of the football fieldb has been added to accommodate the new books. Overnight the library outgrew its ora ganization and separate order, cataloging and reference departments were set up. During October, nearly 7,000 people used the li- brary, 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 spotll 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.

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, Hrst aid and home nursing. Mrs. O. T. Cooper, former sponsor, taught the first 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 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 l-lall 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. -116- jo f X fgfffv Q HY' ALPHA Another successful year in the history of Alpha Omega began with the traditional Red and Iade dinner at the Skirvin Hotel during first semester rush season. Ar 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 Starsf, One Frida mornin in December as students en- . Y 5 . tered the Eine Arts Building for assembly, they were greeted by a sniff of 'il-leartbeatf' a splash of ufleaven- sentf' and a whiff of 'iBlack Magic. Thus the setting was re ared for a ver successful assembl , combinin P P 6 Y H U 1 HY 3 glamour galore and intoxicating aroma in The Perfume Bar f Came 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 at the Taylor home. The walkout Hrst 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 happily with a skating party at the Uptown Skating Club. Walkouts call for rough initiation, so - with Ianuary in full stride, the members thought it well nigh time for action. Thus it is that Jeanne Wellmanis home still bears the marks of battle, and of what started out to be a slumber party. But who sleeps at a slumber party? OMEGA Second semester rush was highlighted by the An- nual Ski-Hi dinner given at the Beacon Club, atop the Eirst National Building. Eour 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 . . . KAMumsy to us. Talent in this organization runs rampant as is shown in the dramatic ability of Frances Mitchell and Mack Tones, the lovely voices of Ieanne 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 Vonnieis 1947 Buick, brand, spanking newl 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 ofhcers this year were Vonnie Bauer, who wielded a wicked gavelg Louise Trice, able vice-presi- dent, and Nadean Pittman, rush captain. Eirst semester secretary was Erances Mitchell, while Elaine I-lutsell kept the minute book second semester. Shirley Page served as treasurer Hrst semester and Dorothy Clark, second semester. -I I8- ALPHA OMEGA RVONNIE BAUER OFFICERS FIRST SEMESTER VONNIE BAUER .,,,,,,,,..........,,, President LOUISE TRICE ,,,,,,,...,,.,,, Vice-President FRANCES MITCHELL ,,,.w...,.,S,, Secrezary SHIRLEY PAGE ,,,,,,,,,..,..,.,,,,...

N II 'HK' van BETA ALPHA PHI Under the leadership of beautiful, blonde Bennie Turner, the Beta Alpha Phi sorority has completed another successful year. The Hrst in a series of successes was the pledging of 16 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 float which won first place in the parade on Band Day featured five pretty girls in shorts helping to row the Chiefs to victory. fThey did, tool? The Beta and Gamma alumnae chapters of B. A. Phi entertained the active chapter at a banquet in November when the pledges enjoyed a 'isquaren 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 Queen, 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, Peb. 27. Bennie Turner, Carolyn Bloom and lone Wells were tapped for Cardinal Key, and Philelle McBrayer is president of that organization. 120 Four 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. Phis in Sigma Alpha Iota, national honorary music fraternity, include Philelle McBrayer Qpresi- dentj, Bennie Turner Qvice-presidentj, Carolyn Bloom ftreasurerj, Margaret Haslam. 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 Iudy 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 Keshemz 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 Club. 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 flashing an engagement ring, and Penny Starr was pinned by a S. A. E. from A. 81 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.

I2I sf-Qs 2 f i KAPPA TAU DELT With twenty-Hve full and wonderful years behind them, Kappa Tau Delta started its twenty-sixth year by pledging eleven girls at the fall Bid House. 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 float 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 UOklahoman cast. She reversed the usual situation by leaving Bill Milliren, 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, ludy Maguire be- came Mrs. Willis Wlieat, Ieanne Dowdy is now Mrs. Pat Denham and lean Cvarritson married lack Eaton. At 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 mcn 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 Ar mid-semester, Prexy Nedra Ann Hill left school with a diamond from Bob Pitt on her third Hnger 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. ln 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 Purpleu for its theme. The trio number suffered many changes before it finally appeared on the stage because Hrst Christine Magafos and then Dorothy Aitken came down with the flu. Leap WCCKYLKSLIYC shot my budget all to heck - 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-lnough 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 officers elected by them.

'Uv , , I I2 PHI DELTA Margaret Long directed Phi Delta sorority girls through the 1946-47 term of fun and good times at 0. 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 Qctober 4 at the Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club and I2 new pledges were introduced. Those girls were initiated at the end of the First semester at rough and formal initiations held in Ianuary. M31'C.1 Finefrock 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 float for the Homecoming parade. Pretty red and white Howers and pretty girls and not even a mention in the awards list. My, how we criedl uVarga 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. Pattie Barry was president of Slia-Watlia Society, Marcine Heinrich was president of Bravettes Pep Club and vice-president of the sophomore class, Shirley Fletcher served as treasurer of the senior class, Wanda Fidler was secretary of the freshman class, Io Finefrock 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 0. C. U. in its history. Hats off to Carolynl 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 Marcine Heinrich, Bernice Kamp, Georgia Love and Carolyn Storer. The annual Christmas party was held in the home of lylrs. Everett S. Kennedy. I2 The Delta Psis held rough initiation for its pledges in December and the Phi Deltas waited up for them at slumber parties. The members spent the night at Io Ann Nanceys home and the pledges slumbered at Shirley Wrigl1t's. That was the night after Varsity Revue and lnie King's wedding. Partiesl Someone was always giving onel Bernice Kamp had an informal get-together one Sunday after- noon in February. A horseback riding party was going on at the same time at Nichols Hills for the more hardy members of the group. Novella Harrison gave a bridge party one evening also. Those Phi Delt bridge fiendsl Bobby Currey's home housed four who sat up all one Saturday night playing that engrossing game. Gn March 2 Dorothy Ann West entertained some of her sisters with a Party at her new home, 67th 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 Hrst semester. She was selected second semester for nWl1o,s Who in American Universities and Col- legesf' 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, tool All 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 Howers. It was held at Blossom Heath on May 9. Those engaging Phi Delras is a pun in this case because thatls just what they all are. Dolores Baines, Carolyn Storer, Helen Dragg, Nlargaret Long, D. A. West, Ioanna Payton, Pattie Barry and Tommy Brantley have had their names taken off the available list by intriguing young men.

' if , , , ' .E I .uni E 6 Us If ,W sl isa, S .5 f i -I2 PHI P Phi Phi Phi is the youngest sorority on the campus. It was organized March 6, 1923 by nine girls and was ofiicially recognized as a women's fraternity on March 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 sororityis 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 0. 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 Sha-Watlma 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 'iRosie. She is a member of Pan-Hellenic Council and the Princess Pep Club. Mentioned often in connection with her Hglamourv clothes is Ienny Hargrove. As pledgemistress she dis- rim HI PHI pelled many a mischievous thought from the minds of unruly pledges. Paula Hopkins, an attractive brunette, reached the finals in this year's Beauty Queen Contest. Besides holding the ofhce as secretary of the sorority she be- longs to Sha-Watl1a and the Princess Pep Club. Custodian and Historian Anna Belle Smith, another graduating senior, has been busy these days working off requirements for a teacher's certificate. Nlargery Caudill, treasurer, was chosen as this year's candidate for football queen. She is a member of Los Socios, Slia-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. ln 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, Gradena Bushey and Iuanita Tebow are pert little members Cas of Ianuaryj who have found college life to be quite interesting. They agree that visiting in the Tepee is one of their favorite pastimes. 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 0. 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 with 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- PHI PHI PHI 'Q MARIORIE BOWINS OFFICERS IWAIUORIE BOWINS ,,..Y,,,,,,,,,,77,7777777777,,,7 President AIIRA BROWN ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,7,,7 V ice-President PAULA HOPKINS ........ ,,......., S ecretary MARGERY CAUDILL ,,v., I 7,,,Y,,77,,,, Treasurer VIIIGINIA I-IAIQGROVE I,,,I,.,I,II,,I, Pledgemistrers ANNA BELLE SMITH ,I,III, Historian-Cmmdmn I X, 3 . ,M , . -...- : ' 84 FIRST ROW: Anna Belle Smith, Mary Ellen Fried- line, Cradcna Bushey.

A., is open to all students who are not affiliated 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. He is now north zone circulation manager for the city. Sylvia Burgess was selected by the Warriors Pep 'Club to reign as their queen for this year. A white jacket with red lettering was presented to her at the Warriors, Hrst annual dance. Erma Lee Hill is a leader among the students of 0. 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 field. 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. Ioan is the busy little bee around Scribblers Hall, who keeps on everyoneis tail about stories and deadlines. Sheis a good dancer, too. For glamour poses as well as informal shots, Arthur Brown is the man to see. He keeps busy taking pictures for The Campus. He takes good personal portraits, too. Uust a plug for you, Arthurj Dorothy Kerr keeps busy between school and work- ing in the office of the First Methodist Church. Dorothy is one of the occupants of Epworth Hall. Now more to the activities of the organization as a whole. Meetings are held once or twice a month, usually at an individualls 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 Hlled 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. Folk 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, g'Song Book, used a large song book for the backdrop, and songs from different Broadway hits were featured, including music from Oklahoma Ben Wheat 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. Hereis looking forward to a bigger and better organi- zation next year. -1281 INDEPENDENATS OFFICERS FIRST .SEMESTER ED SMITH ,,,...............,..,...,....,,.,....,.,,,,...,A,,, President ROBERT BINKLEY .....,..,,,,.,..................

Collecting many ofiices 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 Oelke and Paul Lovell. Ed Oelke was president of the Student Council the first semester and was selected for L6Wlio's Wlio Among Students in American Universities and Collegesf' 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 Monday night just go to Phi Delta meeting. Delta Psi showed its usual superiority with two dances the first semester instead of the usual one. The dance held at the Oklahoma Club was informal and the Nlunicipal Christmas dance was formal. Incidentally, it was a Delta Psi that gave the Fresh- I3O man Queen her traditional kiss QMarca Pinefrock, Neale McGeeD, a Delta Psi that gave the Football Queen her traditional kiss flVfarcine Heinrich, Paul Lovellj and a Delta Psi that gave the Braves Sweetheart her traditional kiss U0 Einefrock, Raymond Lloydj. When there's more and better kissing to be done rest assured Delta Psi Omegas will do itll 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 Miller, Charles Pratt, Carl Stephens, Chet Eox, 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 Ruthf' 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 hrst season of college football after a layoff during the war years. Carl Stephens fcorn on the cob endj, jim Whitaker, Gerald Lovell and Paul QI have too many womenj 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.

Twenty-two men were initiated Ian. 25 and Five more Feb. 1. Wlaat 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 Heath to the music of limmy Vaughn and his orchestra. March 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. ln the spirit of Halloween, we decorated the house using an autumn theme, with cornstalks a-plenty. A tacky party was the occasion. Margaret Newman, Mildred Mitchell, Ted Mitchell 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 ,nil they practically foundered. We acquired a new housemother in Mrs. R. R. Renfro. She moved into the house Feb. 2 in lieu of Mrs. D. A. lohnson. March 7 is the date reserved for our assembly. We think it will be nothing short of sensational unless the newly founded self-styled Hayes Cnot you, limb oHice deletes it unmercifully. L12 hours later-l just checked with local Hayes ofhce fno bearing on Dr. Hayesj and I mean that script was really obliterated so we aren't making any promises.

Cn Feb. 4, the Lambda Chi fraternity house was the scene of a stag party for alumni, members and rushees. lnteresting 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 iL'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 Motheris 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. Members 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 l am going to bring my pet raccoonj Men of prominence: T. A. Byrd still reigns as president of the lnter-Fraternity Councilg Don Howell 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 representative, Van Bullis is freshman representative. Bill Hambrick is secretary of the freshman class and Gene McCornack was elected Royal Ram. We are grateful to Dr. Hayes for another year's faithful guidance on his part.

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 Hrst time in many a moon. After the walkout a party was held in the Heath Annex for the members. Coach and Mrs. 'IBOH 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 sucf cessful . . . at least in destroying one overstuffed chair by fire. The latter part of October saw Phi Chi Phi good will men Qmembersy 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 holidays various informal get togethers were held, and, New Yearis 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 1 as hostess, Dean Bell and Dr. and Mrs. A. C. Cleve- land chaperoning. The Motheris 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, 'iTruth or Consequencesn 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.

I an f 135 TAU NU TAU At the beginning of school, Tau Nu Tau, barely six months old, pinned 30 men at bid house, but all our efforts proved in vain. 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 McAuliff, and Clark Case succumb to the wiles of women. So concentrating our biggest efforts toward the pledges we threw a swellelegant party at Garlands. However, at walkout time we began to see that our hospitality was definitely behind us and the pledges in front of us. Those ruffians 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 Masquerade 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 Nuis, gave to the school its Hrst taste of pulehritude and twinkling toes from the Huntly School of Dance. 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. 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. Wl1yP For most of us it was the first civilian Christmas in years, thatis 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 final 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 take place in the future, and I'11 have to Hfore-seen events. On 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. Qur Keshena Kapers was a lot of fun for us, and everyone else, we hope. Qur plan was to satirize all the wheels on the campus, including faculty. T 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 Founderis 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. -135- TAU NU TAU 'W' DEAN SEATON OFFICERS FIRST SEMESTER FRED LEWIS ,,,,,,, ..,.,,,,,,,,,,.....,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.,A.,,.....

Andy Victor, highest scorer in the nation and a member of the All-Oklahoma team, didnit get that way from any lack of spirit, determination or drive. l-le penetrated the Siegfried line of opposition despite booby traps, land mines and Tiger tank foes. l-le did the Pennsylvania Polka while the enemy was waltzing. lim Wade was spectacular despite an injured hand and leg. l-lis rhumba hips were too shifty to tackle and his second gear legs had too much pickup for the Heetest foe. Frank Bruno was quiet and studious. l-lis grades paid him S550 in scholarship awards. l-lank Kalver took his football seriously. l-le showed that by having learned the kind of psychology it takes to outguess the other team's plays before they were made. Center lohn Cavula was a 60 minute man. I-lis versatility was recognized by a Philadelphia paper which chose him 'ilsineman of the Week. l-le was also awarded a radio and 350 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. 142 CHAT Deroy Bergman Cthat's DERQY, sonj was an end that acted as much at home on the gridiron as he did in civvy streets. Thereis a word for him-it's Rough! Man Mountain A1 Frankunas and l:ather,' Marioil Shirley have trouble buying clothes to Ht 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 l-lugh, was never employed in a steady position. Because of his flexibility he was moved to fill the bill as needed. Cliflf Cunningham is the lean and lanky No. 77 who played so well on Thanksgiving Day. l-le helped beat the stuffing out of Dakota. Iohn Brown was another assistant to the slaughter of Dakota. l-le showed up well against every team he met. lim Whitaker, who suffered a broken spine, was a main spoke in the wheeling defense of the Chiefs. Playing end, lim was always present until injured, and. against Fresno, drew a lot of praise from the coaches. Weldon l-lambrick, old i'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. Ufs scoring roster. WADE ing Through. Carl Allen, gridiron 'iGhost, ran, kicked and passed to win this high praise from Coach Rowland: Allen is one of the Hnest backs in the nation. 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, it's not a top secret anymore. Big Gus Langrell didn't have any trouble getting acquainted with the opposition. I-Ie 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. From Shawnee, Don Fauble came to the city to show 'em how to play football. He was impressive with some of the Hner points such as running, kicking and passing. I-Ie 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. I-le 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. Galloping Ghost Allen. VlCTOR ious Run. When Buddy Goodall wasnit pass snatching he was upsetting the invaderis trickiest plays. Stiff-necked before the season's end, it didn't matter because he was always eyes front when on the playing Held. Carl Stephens, congenial and carefree, was a threat every time he was free for a pass. Many'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. l-loldenville's finest, Bill Roberts was one Bill who didn't wait for the first 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. When you say hats off to Hoot, 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. Ray Ary employed Bronko Nagurskiis line plung- ing technique to great advantage He was hard to stop.

BASKETBAL The most rapid-climbing sport of the day, returned to Oklahoma City University this year after a lapse of five years, is basketball. Considering the fact that the Chiefs had no gym that could 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. In 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 final score reading 72-39. In their next foe the Chiefs met their only state foe, Phillips University. This resulted in a split, with the Haymakers 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 5o-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 50-4o and Austin 43-39. The scores of these ames do not tell the full stor i 5 Y or give an accurate account of the team as a whole or the individual performances given by team members. L 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 O'Keefe, Johnnie West and Robert Herring. ROUND-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. 81 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 grudge 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 Wesleyan 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 first 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 bucket in the closing seconds of play. With breaks like this no team can win ball games. Several people have asked me why the Chiefs failed to run up a higher score against the Hruntsi' 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 I mean.j 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 Haymakers, 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 Hght. fBelieve me, for I was an eye-witnessj Getting down to brass tacks fdon't know where you can find themj, the Chiefs had a respectable season, for a great number of teams in the nation failed to end the season with a 4oo plus average, as did the O. C. U. hoopstcrs. 146- BOB PRICHARD S! Chief Five Takes Five Spezgbt f55j Rebounds Coach, EUGENE Bo SHERMAN Tzpizmz Ill, by Iaylur Cline Is Amazed -I 47- AT O'KEEFE CHlEF'S SCORING Throughout the season Coach Sherman sent about I5 of his charges into action, and, out of these, I3 broke the ice in the scoring parade for a total of 692 points for the seasons' conHicts. l-lere's how the Chiefs scored in the 46-47 season: NAME TP l-lugh Taylor 183 Marvin Speight 13o Don Powers roo Charles Cline go lim Wade 87 Truman Perry 28 Bill Roberts 25 Charles Bauer 25 lim Wallace 6 Pat O'Keefe 4 Robert Edwards II Herbert Herring 2 Iohn West o SQUASHBALL SHOTS Probably the easiest going of the Chiefs quintet during the 46-47 season was Charley Cline who ap- peared to be taking it easy every minute of every game. Charley proved to be one of the best ball handlers on the squad. When speaking of comedy, one might think of the times that big l-lugh Taylor stretched his big frame over the runts from Mexico, or, when Marv Speight threatened to whale the daylights out of some Hve foot six giant, or, the sight of Wee Don Powers tearing down the court on his stubby pins, or, better still, 'glndiann Iim Wade shooting constantly on one of his cold nights. Before the season was over lim uReCl Rock Colai' Wallace had signed a contract with a bird seed company for the use of his glorified legs. It has been rumored that Kong 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. BASKETBALL ou'rl.ooK IS BRIGHT I 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 yearis activity in this athletic field. Next year's season should be a more profitable one, for experience is a great asset. When Coach Bo Sherman started this season he had exactly nothing to begin with, for there were no holdovers from the pre- 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 first 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 didn't 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 Coach Sherman in his Hrst year, and might l add that 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 l-lugh Taylor. Returning next year will be Don Pee Ween Powers, the fast traveling little guard, who kept the fans in an uproar throughout the season, lvfarvin Speight, the tranquility kid, lim Wade the one-hand push-shot artist, and Charlie Chuck Cline, the easy- going guard. 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. 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- ' MAR CHARLES CLINE v1N SPEIGHT AAN NQQAA, ,, , IIM WADE was in was ,Q R A .

Oklahoma City University has fielded a baseball team this year for the first time since suspension of athletics. At 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 First game the Chiefs pounded North- western State Teachers College I2-5 in their opening game of the season at Alva, Oklahoma. lack l-louchin teed off on the mound with Glen Fowler and Carroll Bogard following. Each hurler pitched three innings. Houchin 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 Hnishing the season with Hve more wins. The boys have given a fine showing for O. C. U. and have put their un- divided time and egorts to the baseball team. lack lsler is a fast moving, quick thinking short-stop and has acted as Held 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.

' SEPTEMBER O. C. 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 Ely boysii' ' C27-OD. Announcement was made of the newly-organized Princess Pep Club. They started Hne 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 bonhre and che 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 Wichita. They were there long enough to make some of the Wicliita 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 officers were elected. Einal victors for class presidents were A. E. Davis, senior, Ben Wlaeat, juniorg 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 After illegal entanglements over exactly who could run, Marca Einefrock 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 semi-formal dance and vie for the title of the best hosts. The following week, right before the Thanksgiving holidays, Phi Chi Phi gave their fall dance. Next? ' DECEMBER ' Barbecue and square-dancing were enjoyed by all at an all-school mixer held at Epworth Church. This was held to honor the members of our illustrious football team. Lovely decorations at the B. A. Phi dance helped to make it a fitting start for the Christmas season. Varsity Revue was held in the Eine Arts Auditorium December I3 and 14, under the sponsorship of the Press Club. lone Wells, KESHENA editor, was general chairman with Neale McGee acting as master of cere- monies. Beauty queens loye Hopkins and Betty Long were picked from a bevy of beautiful young ladies. Football season ended with everyone satisfied 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 dissention about the way the election was held, but after all feelings were soothed, A. E. was still the winning candidate. Christmas holidays arrived. - JANUARY ' Blue Key and Cardinal Key thrilled 23 students by tapping them in a special assembly. . . . . . . .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. E. Davis resigned as Student Council president to be replaced by one of the feminine species, Carolyn Storer. Nine students completed their school days by graduating at the mid-year break. Second semester enrolment brought even more stu- dents than ever before to ye olde Alma Mater. ' FEBRUARY ' O. C. U. became accredited by the Boston Educa- tion Board. The M. S. M. invaded O. C. U.'s campus bringing students from all over the state. Bid l-louse was held as the climax to the mid-year rush. Twenty of the Uhoity-toityw were elected to Who's Who. Some have it and others don't. Valentines day was ably celebrated by the Kappa Tau Sweetheart dance held at Blossom l-leath. The boys were kissed here-but good and in public! Deanna Durbin used O. C. U. as the object of a publicity stunt. She doesnit care what we think about beards. ' MARCH ' Leap Week, ruled over by Campus Sweetheart Xochitl Orrell and Royal Ram Gene McCornack, hit O. C. Ufs 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 Cliftonis Uhonor rolly' appeared and a variety of Ustrangeu 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-'iSaludos Amigos. The Braves entertained at an informal dance at the l-luckins at which their queen, jo Finefrock, was honored guest. Intramural sports started with balls flying thick and fast. We also found the students braving the 'iCaliforr1ia weatherw 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 oH:1cers were presented. The students lined up their cars to help O. C. U. launch a million-dollar campaign. We hope it helped. ,89CfS Day brought beards, guns, blue jeans and cowboy boots to the campus. A rip-roarini, gun- shootini, 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 l-leath. 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 arenit 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.

According to the Methodist bulletins this great year with its large enrolment was through the efforts of C. Smith. l 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 rememberg -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 lim Ladies-mann Wade. -The T.S. Twins and the Navy Medics. -The Phi Delta slumber party to go out after the Hpoor freezing Delta Psi pledges. -How Ruth Tormohlen swooned over Roger. It must bel -How 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 it, 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? -The many queens. Look at them, though- purty sharp! -Keshena Kapers or Blood, Sweat, and Tears. -Iudy Hays tooting her own horn. -The birthday parties and ice cream socials given by the Delta Psis. -Vonnie Bauer and Marjorie Bowins and their men friends. Finally. -Kay Shows giving plenty of the stronger sex a hard time. lust Where does her love lie? - Lennie', Schwartz and Paulie Lovell vieing for the title of B.M.O.C. -All 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. In would have been nice if they had turned out to the games, wouldn't it? --How 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. Cf course, all the big moments a.ren'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- R I N G S DISTINCTION Terms Available WELCOME TO ST.

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 MCCOFIHHCR. Bennie Turner was extremely popular because she was I last seen about midnite driving past the campus with her car packed with girls and their dates. And then came the grand finale 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 best 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 Hne. Many floor 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. Fm 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, weire 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.
