PoREwoRD A mirror which reflects the life and spirit of our schoolg a memoir of never-to- be-forgotten hours spent at O. H. S. for those who are wearing the HRed and Black for the last timeg an inspiration to future students to uphold the standards and ideals, to make undying that ineffable spirit of O. H. S.-these have beenithe constant ideals before the staff. Standing out in clear sil- houette against the background of a less Worthy purpose these ideals have been con- sistently before those who have given their time and effort for the Welfare of the '24 Gusher. No expression of appreciation, no compensation, no renumeration for the ef- forts they have expended could be so satis- fying as the belief of those connected with Q. H. S., that they have in a small measure accomplished their aim. s can 3 csaflseejy , 9 LV it CCE Ewfj y -' -J IU Q x5 Zex s 3 0 Cf Lf L X xo -J ff N FN LQ L, Q-, 4!,f L J X , .

LESLIE President HE exceptional excellence of, and the nation-wide prominence ac- corded to OklllUlg98,S school system is, in a large measure, due to the unusual personnel of its Board of Education. These splendid men, realizing that the chief business of any city is the education of its children, have been untiring in their efforts to give Okmulgee a school system equal to that afforded any city in the nation. When we consider the time which they have spent, year after year, without financial remun- eration, it is not to be wondered at that the school system which they have produced stands out for its efficiency, moderness, and excellency. Dr. Leslie has served in the capacity of President of the Board for more than sixteen years and has, along with several other members of the Board, seen our schools grow from the capacity of village schools to their present magnificent proportions. Okmulgee is, indeed, fortunate in having such men as Dr. Leslie, Dr. VV. M. Cott, D. W. Grier, John M. Robe and Henry BaldwIn to look after the welfare of its institutions of learning, and while it continues to secure men of such type its schools can not but Stand high in the educational World.

BRUNER Superintendent NDOUBTEDLY much of the prominence afforded to the Okmulgee School system is directly due to the efforts of its Superintendent, Herbert Bruner. A recognized leader in the ranks of education, Mr. Urum r has introduced ideas which have met with the approval of experienced educators throughout the nation. Mr. Bruner received his A. B. degree al Central College and his A. M. degree at the University of Missouri. llc was assistant in Educational Psychology, Missouri University, and Violessor of Education, Arkansas University. Mr. Bruner is on leave Of al-sence attending the University of Columbia, where he is Working on his !'li D. degree. Next year Mr. Bruner will be completely lost to Okmulgee, time he will take up his duties a member of the faculty in the Depart- 'iltlli oi' Education at Columbia University. Profound, indeed, is the iw ew-ct ol' all Okmulgeeans that the services of Herbert B. Bruner will no ffl!-95411 be available to the city whose schools have grown and expanded urnli-v' his guidance until they have become outstanding for their excellence 1fll'l rl'l'i4-ivlicy.

ADKISSON has a long and extensive experience in educational matters. He received his A. B. degree at Central College, Fayette, Mo., in 1911. In the latter part of 1911-12 he taught at Stuttgart Training School at Stuttgart, Ark. Central Academy was his next field of endeavor, and he taught there for two years. In 1913 and 1914 he took his M. A. work at Michigan University. In 1914-15 he taught at Central College, and in 1915-16 taught at Howard Payne College in the same town. He was principal of the High School at Fayette for two years and was Superintendent of Schools at that place for the following two years, After a year's experience in the U. S. Navy he came to Okmulgee and has been Financial Secretary and Purchasing Agent of the Board of Education from 1919 until the present time. When Mr. Bruner left for Columbia University to gain his Ph. D. degree, Mr. Adkisson was immediately appointed by the Board of Education as Acting Superintendent and his appointment by the Board was acclaimed as a move worthy of much praise. He has filled the shoes of our beloved Superintendent well, and the perfect unison this year of all the different cogs of our great machine of education has been largely a result of his untiring and inspired efforts. 4 -W ' 1 A ' l M, if - ' F' ..r i :1iii. 1'-iAifQ1'i:f'f. t- Af f V4 Ai! 725-J I - - ---- --'!'.:-1'P-fiilfriu' Arf'.'L'1sI-55fes5g RIN' PVGP ceivi also did High Scl' lxoma, wt ssrrcrl as outbreak :lie l2r4tl' ., . vi this in linen Mr. - 1 tin-.anle liorsfiiess ra'li'llvi CY fu fl.

A. ...c 'f A PAUL N. CAMPBELL Principal RINCITKXL PAUL N. CAMPBELL comes to Okmulgee one of the best prepared and most experienced educators of the Southwest. He re- ceived his A. B. degree from the University of Oklahoma, where he also did his graduate work. From 1913 to 1915 he was principal of the High School at Hartshorne, Oklahomag in 1915 he went to Savanna, Okla- liomzi, where he was Superintendent of the Schoolsg the following year he -lr-iw cd as Superintendent of the Schools at Pittsburg, Oklahoma, until the oollmxzilq of the war, when he joined the army and became an officer in .lic l2Nth field artillery. Norman was fortunate in securing' the services ol' this man the two years before he came to Okmulgee. Although this has in-vi. lllr. Campbells first year at O. H. S. he has already established an iwialvlc- record for efficiency and unfailing' service. His unusual conscien- iiiwanicss and untiring effort have greatly added to the excellence of 0111' .feiiiiil syf-tc-in. We are fortunate, indeed, that Mr. Campbell will return to ll. ll S. next year and it is certain that under his capable direction the iilimiiioiial efficiency ol' the Okmulgee High School will become even more ,fi'ismLIllL'1'll than it has been in the past.

Blakey- Even though he seems to be an expert at dolmg out detentions, he is very Well thought of among the students of O. S. 'He attained his A, B, degree at Missouri University and his B. S. in Education at the .same 1n- stitution. He came to Okmulgee five yeari' ago as teacher of History and Citizenship- Since that time he has become Vice- Principal and much-feared issuer of excuses to the long-suffering inhabitants of the Halls of Education in Okmulgee. The name of Blakey will be written on the walls of the Okmulgee Hall of Fame as a well- known principal in that splendid corps of men who have made Okmulgee High School a success. l . L. STEWART Vice-Principal Mr. Stewart is a graduate of the State Teacher's College at Emporia, Kansas. During the years of 1920-21-22 he at- tended the University of Chicago where he took a special course in Educational and Junior High methods. He has been teaching Psychology, Meth- ods of Teaching, History of Education, and Junior High Education in the Educational Department of the State Teacher's College at Ada, Oklahoma, for the last few sum- mers. He will serve in the same capacity this summer. Mr. Stewart came to the Okmulgee schools six years ago as Principal of the Junior High School. We feel that we cannot place the estimation of Professor Stewart's value to the Okmulgee High School too high. He is considered to be the best Citizenship teacher in Oklahoma and his educational talks to the mothers of Okmulgee are to be highly commended. It is, indeed, a privilege to be under the guidance of such an educated Christian character. ' Ar' 1 ' ' ':f !

PETERSON HE Senior Class elected as sponsors for their class two of the most popular and capable members of the family. The Coach endeared himself to the members of the Senior class by his loyalty to the school and by his untiring efforts toward making O. H. S. rank first ill athletics. His coaching duties demanded so much of his time that he was unable to take an active part in the activities of the class this year. Miss Freyschlag was elected as a sponsor of the class in its Junior year and it followed as the night the day that she was re-elected tl1iS year. The success which the class has met in all its undertakings has been due in a great part to the interest and help which Miss Freyschlag has given so freely. The Junior and Senior years are the most active yea1'S of a class's life and, therefore, demand as sponsor a person willing and capable of planning for the best interests of the class. Miss Freyschlag has done all and more than was her share of the workg indeed, she has been, in a certain Senior's words, a perfect class sponsor. bcnio ROLL, Pre lGXf'vl:sim' 'Z2l.

The play, always good, quite exceeded itself this year and caused widespread interest. It was a play of amusing circumtsances, centered around the quiet, ,L tall returned soldier, Clarence, and his inseparable companion, his saxo- phone. Clarence was a sympathetic character to all, but especially to the y charming Miss Pinney, who reigned supreme in his heart. This role was cleverly portrayed by Archer Belford, a handsome young senior. 5 Miss Pinney, the governess, charmed all with the sweet dignity and if patincc she showed in dealing with her troublesome charges, Bobby and ll f,QOl2l. This role was Successfully played by Virginia Voorhees. . , Nell Fuqua as the flapper, Cora, and Billy Knapp as her brother, Bobby, demonstrated their efficiency in amusing the audience with their character- , islic HHush up, 'Alf I had a child like that I'd, or, Look-I mean listen. 3 , One might be led to believe that Mary Francis had Irish ancestors by her easy adaption of the role of Della the maid. Lowell O'Bannon as llinwiddie, the most proper of all butlers, was eually well fitted to his part. Besides these, there were others who helped in making the play a you-ess: Frederick Hollingsworth as the persistent lover, Jack Boone 35 the irate father, Maurice Gregory as the jealous stepmother, and Lula J 3 iliildle as the efficient secretary of Mr. Wheeler. 3 Much of the success was due to the untiring coaching of Miss Annette 3 Wo-lil, Expression Teacher, and Miss Jessie Freyschlag, the Senior Sponsor, 2 xxwllw the assistance of Lucile Cole in the makeup., Hoyt Ostrander, with 5 rm- ,assistance of Aphia Lyons, managed the properties, and Bob Humphreys 3 :it in-fl :is Business Manager. . 3 I V? . . . , . ..-,....,r v Ar' 5 K .,.. ,,-,. 24-fs..

Have you paid your class dues yet? Contemporary notebooks- are due tomorrow. Election day has come and gone, but don't you sitill have memory of that time when posters, political speeches and campaigning were the order of the day?

CHAMBERS MISS GRANT CHIEVEMENT and success have been made possible and actual f01' the Junior Class through the work of the members, and by the aid and suggestions of Miss Grant and Mr. Chambers, the two Class Sponsors. These two Sponsors have taken an unusual interest in the wel- fare and accomplishments of their class. , Mr. Chambers and Miss Grant are both well known and liked by the entire student body. Miss Grant has gained special recognition by her coaching abilities, which are evident in the fact that her team won the state championship in debate. Mr. Chambers is an enthusiast who takes interest in all the sports and activities of O. H. S. He is a teacher of chemistry, and an all-round good sport. Seventeen was exceptionally good production for the annual play of the Junior Class-and is success and enjoyability was due to the coach, the class, the cast, and especially to the Class Sponsors. They acted ai' the power behind the throne, and materially helped the success of the production. The personalities and abilities of the two Sponsors have been so recog- nized and appreciated by the Junior Class as a whole that it seems a necessity that they return next year to resume the sponsorship of the class, which is one of the most ambitious in the High School. f r l l L-I-L-l-1-Li ..u.i r l r l We 1924 fun MARY O.

The Juniors started the year right by selecting two of the most popular and efficient inSt1'L1Ct0YS in school, Miss Grant and Mr. F. L. Chambers, for their Sponsors. Led by Newall Howell the first semester and Fay Davis the lasthalf of the year, the Juniors took an active part in all High School activltles. The Juniors were especially strong in Forensic circles, placing seven Of their classmates on the debate teams, while in the new student government plan the Juniors were very prominent, being surpassed only by the Seniors in the number of Senators and Representatives. The Junior Class Play, Seventeen, was one of the outstanding events of the year, and will be long remembered as a play of unusual excellence and enjoyable entertainment. Taken all in all, the Junior Class has had a most successful year and it is certain that next year's student body will gain many honors under the capable direction of the class of '25.

It has done more as a class, than is usual for one so large and so young. The outstanding event of the year is the fact that they won the inter-class basket ball tournament. They won not only because their team was made up of fine players, but also because the whole class was behind the team with its cheers and loyal spirit. The class held a successful pep meeting the night before the tournament and cheered dur- ing the tournament in a body. Frank Divilbliss, of the Sophomore Class, covered himself and his class with glory when he won the first prize in the district short story contest. The judges commended his story very highly and suggested that he send it for publication in some magazine. The third memorable event of Sophomore records was the election of members to the Senate. The Sophomore -Class nominated Mary Ani- brosie, Rufus Byars, Dick Steiner, Frank Watson, Milton Shefts and Frank Divilbliss. Out of this number Rufus Byars, Dick Steiner and Frank Wat- son were elected by popular vote to the Senate, while Mary Ambrose was elected as alternate. The number of Sophomores enrolled this year was 183. This large enrollment promises a large number of graduates for the class of '26, ............

Coaching Staff l . F. V. ABERNATHY ' O small part of the creditable record made by our three debating teams is to be accorded to the four coaches, who through their ex- perience have helped our debaters to make this very splendid record. The debating season of 1924 has clearly proved the increasing popularity and merit of forensic activity in O. H. S. Great credit is due to Mr. Abernathy, who for the past four years has made it his special duty and privilege to promote an interest in debating, oratory, and public speaking in O. H. S. Prior to this time O. H. S. had seldom had more than one or two debating teams, while after his arrival there were never less than four. His splendid experience at Central Col- lege in intercollegiate, intersiociety, and interclass debates, in expression and in oratory, in which he won first prize, especially fitted him for the leadership of these activities in O. H. S. During his first year here MI'- Abernathy coached four debating teams, winning about one-half of the debates, which was not a bad showing, since it was our first year in the Central Conference. His second year was even more creditable. The boys' team lost one debate out of four and tied with Blackwell for the cham- pionship. The girls' team, which won about half of the debates, did not fare so well. In his third year here Mr. Abernathy coached only the boys' team, being relieved of the responsibility of coaching both' teams by Miss Hensley. Both girls and boys won about half Of the d9bHt9S- While not directly connected with the debating teams this year as a coach, Mr. Abernathy has had the general supervision of both Conference and State League teams and has arranged for the judges for home de- l 1 1 l 1924 . . e e i ei af I E K I z E E Q E E : E E : 2 E E E it E E : TE Ii: 'S HE E E i 1 4 i l E E , Coaching Stay? PEARL MIDDLEBROOK W. H. RIDDLE MARION GRANT bates and planned the schedules of all the teams. Since there were a number of people in the faculty this year who were proved debate coaches and since our field of debating was enlarged, it was thought that it would be best to place a coach in charge of each team and have some one person responsible in general for all. That the plan has worked very successfully this year is due in no small degree to the wise and judicious selection of the coaches. Mr. Riddle's experience as a member of the debating teams at the Normal at Ada, as President of the Forum Debating Society, as Sponsor to the debaters of Congress Literary Society, and as Coach of State League Team of Ringling, Oklahoma, has made his selection as coach of our own State League Team a very wise one. Under his capable direction a State League Team was produced which, if it had not been for bad luck, should have won high honors for O. H. S. As it was, they distinguished themselves and their school with their Well prepared argu- ments. No member of the faculty could have had a better record than Miss Middlebrook had to recommend her choice as coach of our boys' team of Central Conference. A graduate of the University of Arkansas, she coached the debating team of Sherman, Texas, that won district championship and participated in the semi-finals for state championship '22-'23, and the Muskogee debating teams of '21-'22 that won the girls' conference cham- pionship. The combination of such debaters as compose the boys' team and a coach with such a record as Miss Middlebrook's could not be im- proved upon. The splendid record of our girls' team of this year in winning the championship of the Big Twelve Conference proves perhaps better than her former record as coach of the champion Elkens team, a most capable and efficient coach. A graduate of O. U., she has shown her training and ability as coach in the perfect poise, forceful arguments, and choice diction of her debaters. that Miss Grant 5 umm u uu,uum4uuu .mt uuumu xumnv wxmxnx lllnluullt uw .1-mann -unxmm Lu unaum: ' i nuuzuw .m.m.w un man iuiilunmmnnuuu i p r g.fl.t':1'ff1---1 -A -- - ---- 4 ' ' Q 9 M .4 ,, .

The first debate, to have been held on February 1 with Beggs, was forfeited about a week before that date. The second debate, to have been held with the winner of the Hitchita-Morris debate, was also won without uttering a word. The next debate, held on March 7, at Okmulgee with Checota, was decided in favor of 'Checota by a two to one decision. The judges were Mr. Kelly Brown, an attorney from Muskogee, Mr. J. N. Hackler of the State Teach- er's College at Tahlequah, and Mr. A. N. Boatman, a lawyer of Okmul- gee. Max Boyd, the youngest and probably in O. H. S., is expected to develop into one in the state. Max is a hard worker, thinks of words and with improvement in delivery defeat. one of the brainiest debaters of the most effective debaters well, and has a good selection will become a debater hard to Combined in Helen Harmon are the qualifications which make a good debater-a good voice, poise, brains, and willingness to work. O. H. S- is fortunate in that this debater will also return next year to uphold HS honor in the debating circles of the state. In Lowell O'Bannon, the State League team had a captain who never quit fighting. Forceful, effective, and earnest, he impressed his hearers with his unusual sincerity. His ability for gathering and absorbing mate- rial made him one of the best prepared debaters representing O. H. We will miss this hard working Irishman with eloquence as fiery as his hair. , llff' fi' 'i'?'r '-'A U J ' ' -1-T+T': : 'Fen -1' j V MW-AN-M '- M A ,Y,, Y ,,,,:,,..,..,.,....,L,,,,,,.,......,..,,L p, 1, ,, ,.,,,.,,.,,,.-..-,-...,......:- -1,-gf... 4...- -..-- .L , i Girls Affirmative Conference Debate Team AI Debating the question: Resolved that the United States Should Adopt the Cabinet- Parliamentary Form of Governmentf' the girls' teams of this year made an enviable record by winning that much coveted title, i'Champions of the Big Twelve Conference of Oklahoma. The affirmative team won their debate by forfeit while the negative team won all their debates by decision and received the distinction of Winning the championship debate with Enid on May 2, at Enid, by a unanmious decision of all three judges. MARY LOUISE MCDANIEL Mary Louise McDaniel, the captain of the affirmative team, although she had no opportunity to show her ability, was recognized as one of the most brilliant of all the debaters who have represented O. H. S. She secured a sound basis for de- bate through careful reading and she was quick to discover the Weak points in an opponent's argument. Since she leaves this year it is greatly to be regretted that O. H. S. did not have an oppo1'tunity to hear her debate. FAYE DAVIS Faye Davis, through her experience in expression, became one of the most effective debaters in O. H. S.

It prophecies well for next year's debating season that these two will still be students of O. H. S. and even better debaters be- cause of this year's experience. GLADYS MANZER Gladys Manzer filled her place as captain of the negative team with the same suc- cess with which she has filled the many other responsible positions given her in O. H. S. Gladys is reliable, capable, force- ful, and determined, and has the ability to work out an argument which is almost irrefutable. Next year will see her filling her old places with the same characteristic ability and diligence. MILDRED COLLINS Mildred Collins, although only a Sopho- more, did as good work in debate as any upper classman could have done. Besides an unusual talent she is an untiring and unceasing worker, who improved remark- ably up to the very end of the season. Her delivery, which never ceased to improve, is very pleasing and convincing, and by next year should be exceptional for its ex- ccllence. O. H. S. can depend on her to help defend its record in debate for the next two years. 1924 5Gif 'f'l H :T T'-GVT5' f 'fUi'3'7 '31'9:'lTU ' 'f ' 1 f CMM -........e ,., , E , fBoys Affirmative Conference Debate Team Debating at Muskogee on the QUGSUOUY 'tResolved that the United States Should Become a Member of the Permanent Court of International Justice, the boys' affirm- ative team lost to Muskogee. FREDERICK HOLLINGSWORTH Although this was his first year out for debate, Frederick Hollingsworth, the effi- cient captain of the affirmative team, ac- quitted himself in a highly commendable manner. He was an untiring Worker who had unusual ability for finding points which were entirely undiscovered by his opponents.. Those who have heard Fred debate regret that his talent was not dis- covered until his Senior year and that his services to O. H. S. in debate were limited to one year. His unusual capacity for work should, with more experience, make him an efficient member cf some college debate team. Although the boys were extremely unlucky in the decision of their first debate, their spirit is laudable and their efforts praiseworthy. PHILLIP BROWN This year, as in several years past, Phil- lip Brown made for himself a very credit- able record in forensic activities. In the eighth grade he was awarded first place in a declamation contest and since then he has kept his record perfect. He has a good voice, an overwhelming desire to debate, and a pleasing stage presence.

CHARLES REED Charles Reed, the able captain of this team, has had probably more experience in public speaking than any other member of the student body. Last year he not only made the debate team but also represented O. H. S. in oratory. Such a combination as he possessed, of unusual reasoning power and ability to move an audience by power- ful oratory, is seldom found in a high school debater. A hard worker, a clear thinker, a polished orator, and a resourceful extem- po1'aneous speaker, -Charles made a debater who will not be soon forgotten at O. H. S. He will be sorely missed next year not only in debate and oratory but also in our as- semblies, Where his ability to convince an audience has made him an outstanding leader. HERBERT VAN SANT Herbert Van Sant completed this team of such extraordinary ability. Although he had had little previous experience, Herbert developed into a skilled debater. His liter- ary style and pleasing voice, combined with a willingness to work, made him a debater of no little ability. The unusual friendship existing between Charles and Herbert made their teamwork unequalled throughout the conference. Herbert is a Junior this year, and with the invaluable experience received during his first year as a debater, should surely be a leader in the forensic circles of O. H. S. next year, ,N fy . -if. ivi..itfp.eum.w,ui..a,hgw.auuu-aaa A ----1'-0-M,-.n ' ' ' ' V Q , ' , fl, 4 , H ' 'f it A Orators MAX BOYD . ABE ERDBERG CHARLES REED O. H. S. has, indeed, a right to be proud of the three boys who represented her in Oratory. At the Interscholastic Meet, in competition with the best orators in the state, everyone of these or-ators placed and, amassing a total of seven points, gave to Okniulgee the honor of winning more points in oratory than any other school in Oklahoma. Displaying his usual talent in collecting material and his original thought, Max Boyd brought home from Norman a third place with his original oration, The Con- stitution, in competition with a large number of contestants. The contents and thought of his speech were quite remarkable and his only weakness was his delivery, due to a weak voice which is improving noticeably with practice. If his delivery had been better and his voice of more volume, he would have been practically unbeatable and probably would have won first place instead of third. Next year Will probably find him, with this weakness overcome, one of the most efficient orators in the State. Although handicapped by the fact that he was working on two orations, Abe won second place in the Standard Oration contest at Norman. Abe has a very unusual delivery for a high school student and, in the opinion of the judges, would have won first place had he used more gestures and had a better stage presence. An excep- tional voice, backed by an amazing intellect, combine to make Abe an orator of unusual ability. The active part which Abe has played in the various oratorical contests of the state during the past few years has made him an orator of recognized ability throughout the state. Abe's graduation will leave a vacancy which will be hard to fill, but some higher institution of learning will probably profit by our loss. g An extensive vocabulary, the ability to think clearly and quickly, and an unusual stage presence combine to make Charles Reed an extemporaneous speaker of truly remarkable ability. Having the misfortune to draw a subject which involved the discussion of health, diseases, and the future of cooking as an art, to five women judges, -Charles performed the remarkable feat of placing second in the state over d would have, in the opinion of the representatives from all over Oklahoma an judges, probably taken first place had he drawn a different subject. To this skilled debater, powerful orator, and unusual extemporaneous speaker Charles Reed goes the honor of being O. H. S.'s most versatile speaker. O. H. S., is indebted ui Lharles for many honors and his graduation will be a loss which will be greatly felt by the school to which he has so consistently given his talent, efforts and ability. ..l. lll. . 4 X I f l I .Iii ff' 'f 1 .

The most ver- satile player on the team, his line- plunging was deadly and he passed the ball with great speed and accu- racy. Having naturally the qualities of leadership and good sportsman- ship he was invaluable to his team as a captain. He was the receiver of the prize given by the Okmulgee Sporting Goods Company for all- round playing, leadership and schol- arship qualities and his selection met with the approval of everybody.

We feel certain that he will pilot his team to victory. LEO MURPHY Bunk never met his peer at pass- ing the ball back. His passes were always accurate and he was a steady and determined player. On the de- fensive he played a remarkable game, stopping everything that came his way, not only nabbing would-be end- runners before they could get started but also tearing through the line and blocking many attempted puts. He was also a power in breaking up short passes. ELMO PETRIE For two years Runt has been the Bull-Dogs' pep-dispenser on the gridiron. Weighing only 118 pounds, he was one of the most consistent ground-gainersv on the team. His spe- cialty was long, Wide end runs, though he was almost as proficient at slip' ping through the opponents' line for Hain after gain.

D. failed to finish only one. Out of all ten, except one, there were prac- tically no gains made around his end. He was an adept at turning in plays. After being shifted to a half-back po- sition near the end of the season, he turned out to be a typical triple- threat back man. He bore the brunt of the punting and he had the dis- tinction of not having a punt block- ed during the whole year. FORREST BELL This is Cap's last year at O. H. S. and what will undoubtedly be Okmul- gee's loss will most probably be some good co1lege's gain. He was a sure tackle, and the certain defense of his end was equalled only by his won- derful ability to take a man out under the most adverse circumstances. He was another versatile player, be- ing able to take either an end or a backfield position with equal success whenever called upon. IRVING SHEFTS Ikie was the best defensive player that Okmulgee fans have seen for a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that he worth his weight in wild- cats to the team, even tho he weighed 175 pounds. Ikie always hits 'em hard and never fails to make his tackles around the shoestrings.

He again disproved the statement that it takes weight to play football for there was no player opposite him that out-played him during the whole year. He was a steady and de- termined player and on the defensive never failed to stop anything that came his way. He will receive his diploma this year and will never grace an O. H. S. football uniform again. ROY DALTON Vernon is a tackle who made coaches and sport writers of the con- ference sit up and take notice. His reputation as a terror on defense was not exaggerated at all, as his ability to knife into and break up plays was unsurpassed. On tackle- around plays, he carried the ball with surprising sureness and was the hardest man on the team to bring down. He will 'be with us again next year. RAYMOND McCULLOUGH Mac developed more swiftly than any player that Okmulgee has had for a long time. His ability to hit the line and his queer, puzzling, shifting side-step on end runs marked him as a half-back worthy of all conference notice. He was developed as a puntel' by 'Coach Peterson and his energy in booting the ball helped the Bull-Dogs out of many holes. If Mac con- tinues to improve as he has, it is our contention that he will tear 'ern UPU in college football. l Il 1 Q!

The greatest setbacks that the Bull-Dogs received were handed to them by Jupiter Pluvius, for, knowing e that the Okmulgee team was an exceptionally light one, the storm-god always managed so that it was raining pitchforks before every game. 5 The season began with a victory over the heavy Morris team, who i' were set back to the tune of 19 to 6.

We went to McAlester, where we trounced their heavy team decisively, though the game was hard-fought throughout. Muskogee and Shawnee both defeated us on muddy fields, since their teams were the heaviest that we went up against during the whole year.

D. was always ruler of his half of the court when the Bull-Dogs i were on the floor. As a guard he had no equal in his type of playing. He was an unusual player and he was perfect in his floor-covering technique. When the ball came into his territory and he went into the air, we always knew that he would come down with it. He will make a wonderful man wherever he goes next year. ' This long, rangy youth was our general utility player and well did he perform the job. He was a very good center besides being equally able to hold down the position of guard or forward very capably. His long arms made him a hard man to get around and he was a good, long shot.

We are fortunate to have him with us next year.

BASKETBALL SQUAD Basketball Season The Bull-Dog basketball season was a success, for We Won 9 out of the 15 games we played, losing 6. This record is far better than any Okmulgee team has made for the past four years and it is due to the fighting spirit of the members- of the squad and the wonderful coach- ing that they were fortunate enough to have. The season started off with a rush, the team winning six games in succession before. losing a single one. The first game was with the O. S. G. C. team, a semi- professional five that had won great renown as one of the best semi-pro teams in Oklahoma. The score was 21 to 17, in favor of the Bull-D-pgs. On the following Friday the wearers of the Red and Black tangled with the experienced Preston team, defeating them by the score of 21-18. On December 24, Mounds went down to defeat before the rapidly-dveloping Okmulgee basket tossers. The next contest also turned out in favor of the Red-Black quintet, when they trounced the Alumni team. They con- tinued their winning streak by taking a hard-fought game from thell' old rivals, the Henryetta aggregation This score was 11-10. Next came the McAlester team, whom they set back to the tune of 26-12. By this time the Bull-Dogs had built up a reputation for themselves as one of the fastest teams in the conference and were doped to defeat the Bartlesvillc team easily. The tables were turned, however, when Captain Petrie was declared ineligible on the day before the game. The Bull-DOES, fl0Vfm' hearted from the loss of this scintillating star, lost to the Bartlesville team by a score of 11 to 10. Still brooding over the absence of their I fda.

They rallied on the following Frlflkly and against trounced the Henryetta five by the score of 25 to 10. They continued their flashing comeback by annexing a game from the De MOIHY team, a fast group, composed of former High School stars. The speedy Eufaula championship team was set back by a score of 14 to 11 in 01719 of the cleanest games of the season. Tulsa's Giants vanquished the Ok- 1 l ee tais and the same story held true when the Bull-Dogs journeyed iiu g s' ' toSapulpa only to lose by the score of 17 to 7. Mounds and Preston both 1. 7 took our measure on courts with low celllngs, cement tloors and gaso me lamps. Too much credit cannot be given to the two members of the squad who did not make their letter, Primo and Dalton. They stayed out dur- ing the whole year and never lost their fight Primo, actually one of the best members of the squad and really deserving of a letter, which through some misfortune he did not get, but he'll be right there next year, fighting hard for Okmulgee. Junior High Season The Junior High basketeers, namely, the Rat Terriers, won 5 out of 6 games played, and continued to hold up the precedent of Professor Briggs' championship team by turning out players well worthy of wearing the coveted UO . Mitchener, White, Mesch, Nealon, Wallace and Malloy earned their letters. Others who deserve honorable mention for their loyal support and hard Work are Mohler, McBrayer, McVay, Blakely, Camp- bell, Tyson and Turner.

The track team was composed mainly of lower classmen and the only reason that they couldn't win was their inexperience. Okmulgee's future in track and field events is bright, because these lower classmen, who are such willing and determined workers, will have the necessary experience within two years at the most, and then LOOK OUT FOR OKMULGEE! The team and their events are as follows: Cott-Hurdles, high jump, discus. Primo-Weights. Davis-Javelin and weights. Christian-Javelin and high jump. Allen-Dashes. Turner-Dashes and high jump. - Brown-Dashes and high jump. McBrayer-Distance runs. Siberts-Hurdles. Blakely-Dashes. Christian-Pole vault. Kester-High jump. Smith-Weights. Wilson-Hurdles.

This year the Student Council was re- organized. A new constitution was adopted which provided for a Senate of fifteen members elected at large from the four upper classes and u House of Representatives elected from the school advisory groups. The Iiresident is elected by the student body at large and presides at all meet- ings of the Council. The Faculty Advisory Committee together with the officers of the Senate and the House of Representatives form the Studi-ni Relations Committee, whose duty it is to act as a higher court mul-10 t he constitution and to settle such controversies as may :arisi- interpre t ' : between the two legislative bodies. c 3gig.i'igMjgjgQ:,iL4V U '5 1 1f'f:-,jgwrfef-are-fe-ff+e.:Af f ll W 'CV' 1 fre 'ml L- A ' ' ,,,..,, , ,fx , f -. te,.li x t f.

Here both the Sub, Prep and Freshman have an equal voice with the Junior and Senior on matters of student interest and school welfare. Here, too, any faculty member may have a voice, but not a vote, in the discussions. In this way a better understanding between students and teachers is maintained. Each member represents about thirty of his class- mates from his home room and he carries back to them, his constituents, the school policies and ideals formulated by this democratic body. Without this body many school activities could not be carried on without placing extra burdens on the teachers or by taking time allotted to academic pursuits. Hobo Day, The Community Lyceum, and the Ath- letic Association owe much of their success to the school advertising carried on by the House of Representatives. R 7 4 J 1 A KL-,fiamga-Q Q...

'Camp Fire Girls learn the value of Friendship, of working together, giving service and appreciation of the highest values of life. The watchword of the Camp Fire is Wohelo, fwork, health and lovel. The seven points of the law of the camp which Camp Fire girls strive to follow is: Seek Beauty, Give Service, Pursue Knowledge, Be Trustworthy, Hold on to Health, Glorify Work and Be Happy. The Ta-Ta Pochon Camp Fire was organized this year with MiSS Beula Yenter as guardian. Honors have been acquired in the seven crafts and most of the girls have reached the degree of wood gatherers.

H. S., has a membership of forty-eight this year. ' The society is especially interested in dramatics and an annual play is given by the talented members of the society. The Excelsiors have always contributed liberally toward school activ- ities. The proceeds from their plays have gone for some beneficial equip- ment. In 1920, the Excelsiors pres-ented a set of stage scenes to the High School for the auditorium. In 1922, fifty dollars was donated for an electric fountain. Last year the members of the Excelsior purchased a grey cur- tain for the auditorium stage. This year's contribution was a large silk American flag and some books for the library. The Excelsior also had their 'name put on the curtain they donated last year. Among the plays the Excelsiore have produced are Who's Who, The Arrival of Kitty, The Mysterious Aunt Jane, The Impo1'tance of Being Earnest, and this year's A Pair of Vases. A Pair of Vases, a clever one-act comedy, centers around two loudly decorated, perfectly hideous vases, painted by a favorite Aunt Henrieittil, which were sold at rummage sale and the vain efforts of the young I1l6C0 to locate them before her arrival. This play proved very 9Hf91'fHm1Hg, amusing and educational programs. They celebrated 'February 22 as Excel- sior Day and had a special program. They wore their colors and Excelsior Day is to be made an annual affair. i 1 The society is to promote interest in literary exercises and provide for its members the means of improving in an intellectual, social, and moral wa . yThe Society is much indebted to Migrgeg Ruth 'I'orwilliger and Louise Jcrrel for their time and effort in makin?

To begin with, it has increased in size, having a membership of about forty. They started the year right by giving an operetta, the Wild Rose. This Was a success and the girls are proud of their work. They were asked numerous times to sing for clubs and churches and they have appeared in assembly many times. They went to Norman with colors flying and made a good fight for first place. Coming back their colors were slightly drooping but they held a good fourth place, which is better than any 'of the Glee Clubs have formerly done, Okmulgee never having placed in the finals. The Glee Club will sing for the baccalaureate sermon and, with the help of the boys, will sing for the commencement exercises. This is the first year the club has had pins.

High School Orchestra ARVO W. HANTULA Conductor The aim this year has been to increase the instrumentation of tht orchestra and to develop a well-balanced organization. Many instruments have been added, fflute oboe cello double bas viola and hornsj, so that We POW have an. orchestra lacking but tympanies and bassoon of having an instrumentation of a modern symphony orchestra. Plans are being made to add and complete the instrumentation for next year also augment the string vection from the Junior Orchestra. The High School Orchestra has appeared in concert played for P. T. A meetings civic clubs assemblies, etc., and has been the neucleus of th. Lyceum Orchestra. This organization deserves special mention for it has helped make the Community Lyceum a success. Beside playing for the regular show every week it has played engagements at the Orpheum Theatre Senior Play, Junicr Play, reception atthe Hippodrome Ball Room for the Ruth St. Dennis Dancers Baptist Church Siegel's Opening etc. At the State Interscholastic meet held at Norman May 24 25 and 26 the High School Orchestra Won third place in contests for High School Orchestras. From all indications we hope next year to make a muchibet- ter showing. Only elections worth while musically have been studied which develops a better understandfng for good music and paves the way to higher 'tandards in appreciation and rendition.

Instinct, Memory, Will, Thinking, Spiritualism and Hyp- notism were among the topics considered. No attempt was made to under- I stand the theoretical side of the subject, and emphasis was laid on such Q facts as might prove of general value in daily life.

The second semester it increased its enrollment to twelve members. The aim of the Challengers is to promote the interest in and the Study of the art' of debate. The year has been profitably spent in study the technical side of effective debating, interrupted at frequent in- tervals by practice debates on current questions. The club members were also taught how to judge a debate, how to preside at a debate and how to keep time fOr the debaters. This club points with pride to the fact that two of the girl debaters this year were chosen from its members, Gladys Manzer and Helen Harmon. Other challengcrs are: 1 .

We first visited the colored high school and found some very high grade work in both academic and vocational studies. It was alS0 found that the colored school possessed a very fine library, containing a large num- ber of volumes. Another visit was to the county jail. At the jail the jailer d9Ul01?' strated how the locks on the cell doors worked. -He also showed uS t 0 kitchen and the dining room, both being very sanitary. For the last few weeks this club has interested itself in the feeble- minded and their care, and also the result of feeble-m1ndedI1eSe 011 thc social conditions of our country. This has been very interesting ac 1v1 y . . , , . f and it is thought that many of the pl'QSCHt members will Join it again next year. t' 't for both students and teacher .HZ.lIx..-.

O. Horning, Advisor The Tennis Club was formed this year for the first time with a mem- bership of twelve, 5-ix girls and six boys, of the Senior High School. This club was organized with the purpose of bringing tennis into the school as an athletic sport, also to give much-needed practice to those desiring to improve their game. The club met twice each week on the Beauclair Courts when the weather permitted and at other times in the Girls' Gym, which had been laid out for tennis. A few Weeks before the Norman contest a tournament was held on the Beauclair Court. All High School students were eligible to compete in both doubles and singles. Marv Frances Turman won in the girls' singles, l H l Fursman and Mary Frances Turman in the girls' doubles. Sam anc e en . . Heilbron won in the boys' singles, and Stanley Rheinstein and Sam Heil- bron in the boys' doubles. These four club members were given the trip to Norman to participate in the tennis tournament. Correspondence is now being carried on with Sapulpa and Muskogee with a View of obtaining a triangular meet here at the time of the annual Invitation Track Meet Next year, if increased enthusiasm is shownh we - z 'c h e to obtain one or 'more courts for High School -use only. Pupils xx op long felt the need of a convenient place to play tennls. .

Under the efficient leadership of their leader Carl Sears, they have mastered a large and extremely difficult assortment of stunts which makes the performance they present interest- ' nd thoroughly worth while The performers give a finished and ing a , snappy showlas they are all experienced and the majority of them have ' l f th ' novel and worked together for the past two years. As a resu t o eir unique performance the club has come to occupy a distinct place and de- mands are constantly made for their appearance. Their repertoire which includes rolls, handsprings, head stands, flips, upstart- long dives, high dives, monkey dives, and a series of pramids, using ladders, horses and parallel bars, has been presented in public per- formance no less than seven times. The execution of these stunts requires an unlimited amount of courage, confidence and co-operation. The club, besides appearing in assembly programs, has performed at the Orpheum, Yale, Community Lyceum. At the County Rallynthey entertained 700 visi- tors, and by special request they presented their show for the Orpheum Bible Class. 1, iii ,aim r.i, i 4le44e+f-e -Y4'-A-at 2 P h f ff E E W C E li t E 2 ll , 2 iz 3 E nxvw.

' The students and sponsors who have had charge of the organization this year feel that they have made a reat strid - . ' g 9 towaid the realization of their goal. This organization is not a commer- ciali one 1n any sense Kof the word. The money received from the tickets so V ' ' ' ' goes to pay for film rental and improvement in equlpmentj Over one hundred and fifty dollars Worth of equipment has been purchased this year and all expenses have been paid from the gate receipts' without using an-y of the Community Lyceum's share of the Student Ticket Fund. Th organization of the Community Lyceum is one of the best in school. Under the direction of Mr. Sears, faculty sponsor, and Mr. O'Neal, the students have done almost all of the active work connected with Com- munity Lyceum. Much credit is due to the students who have been interested in the work this year. These students are: Minnie Mae Fleming, ticket 5-ellerg Jim Barrett, Adrien Primo, James Pate, doorkeeperg Carl Bernard, door- keeper, William Moore, stage manager, John Baird, manager, Hugh Brad- shaw, operatorg Rufus Capshaw, operator, and Argyle Bradshaw, operator. Next year the faculty sponsors and students hope to have more student participation in the programs. This year, Music Night, given by the 1nuS1C departmentg a play, given by the Dramatic 'Clubg stunts and wrestling, by the Pramid and Tumbling 'Clubg and the operetta, To a Wild Rose, -bb' the Girls' Glee Club, made up the greater part of the student participation in the programs.

The Pepettes were organized under the sponsorship of Miss Doro- thy Barth for the benefit of those girls who had made an average of grades not below C and who were seeking an opportunity to boost their school. Despite the fact that this has been its first year, the Pepette organization has been one of the most active of all school activities. During the football season the Pepettes were present at every game, dressed in the full Pepette regalia, which consisted of dark skirts, white sweaters and caps. Rain or shine, mostly rain, the football boys could depend upon them. - They demonstrated even greater loyalty during the basketball season and in co-operation with that worthy organization, the Pep Hounds, were able to furnish a stunt for practically every game. The Pepettes made enough money during the basketball season, by selling candy and keeping a check room, to supply the club next year with Pepette megaphones. When the school was endeavoring to make it possible for everyfmc to enjoy school activities by selling tickets to the students- at a low price, the Pepettes came to the fore by challenging the Pep Hounds to a ticket selling contest. It was agreed that the losing organization would give an entertainment for the other. The Pepettes won the contest and eHj0y9ll immensely a kid party given by the Pep Hounds.

This class Won the distinction Hobo Day of being the hardest working bunch of hoboes in school by reaching the unusual average of 332.20 per individual. As a prize for this feat the group was given this picture and Writeup. Space here does not permit a detailed account of the various devices used to jar the nickels out of the public, but the chief ones us-ed were the shoe shining stand, street singing, delivering statements for a cleaning establishment and working on cars. Although the members of the group are proud of the fact that they surpassed every other group in school they are proudest of the fact that every member of their group worked at something, and while some made more than others, everyone did his best for the school. p 'iii ,icianb ry? working 2.20 per ure and various es us-ed s for a bers of roup in r group veryone 3 1 , XR XXX I X I ff f-xx ix ,Q-ff, ihxxfxx X X 'XX . !,f T X XX X ffl ,' - ix., NK' gt 2 5 I jf! xx ,' :Nbr V xx X - kk XX QL f XXX B .X Y -X R 1 x X 'X 3 NN x I 1 I N X i W if 2 W fm f -4.-h ii.N,.i 'Tifflii1iT5.::11:1:j 1 I l f if Y wf f IJ L 1 L Y 7 tQ-1.L3LgJ.fHQ1g,zaw,L1-,Lg1ig If I il iff lffffZT1Z'.'I:Z1i1f11g.Qf... ,----M-L-, ,,.,-., . ,VITQ1 ,, -fil,gQifl,'.T,.1,T T' 1,j1j1'QTf'fT' 1' Q9 op ulam ty V fvlflfif lil-A M 4 W'fQ M' flW QQgQf1IfQQf gr -,Q.gQQg fs, 3 , .

Red Letter Days' ' OCTOBER 6 l Senior Breakfast When students attain Seniordom they usually prefer their sweet repose to an early morning carousal. A conclusive proof of this is the Senior Breakfast. Ahem! l One morning about 4:30 several cars of Seniors assembled near the high school waiting patiently for Miss Cornell to finish arranging her unbobbed locks. Now if only she had it bobbed-but aye, thel-e'5 the rub, as Bill Shakespeare says. To resume our narration-on this particular morning, Charles Reed, Harroll Tannery and Lowell O,Bannon were Firemakers. fNo, they haven't joined the Campfire Girlslj This committee had charge of the Heats. A very good committee, too. One short Senior, one tall Senior and one plump Senior-a representative committee. T-he short, slender Senior was probably responsible for the pickles on the menu. Pickles are slender- izing, you know. All the flivvers, Packards, perambulators and kiddie kars were lined up by the Seniors and they proceeded on their journey. They soon reached their destination. The spot chosen was a woody glen near the Country Club. The autumn leaves of gold and yellow formed a leafy cover for the otherwise bare earth. Breakfast was soon being put in the proper container-the mouth-and the entire group seemed to have thrown restraint to the winds and joined in the merriment. Grave f?J, dignified C?J Seniors acted almost prepish. Even our august magisters forgot their ungraded test papers and failing reports, etc., and were hard to distinguish from students. Breakfast consisted of buns, pickles, weiners and coffee. Accent on the C-O-F-F-E-E. Actually that coffee was so weak that even a forest fire couldnit make it run. After breakfast games were played. Games such as New York, Farmer in the Dale, and Nigger, as Miss Freyschlag said-fshe meant Black Man. J , Poor Seniors! Perhaps this was the last time they would play these games. But-you didn't see 'em shedding any tears. Quite the contrary. Why, they were simply having a side-splitting time. So it was reluctantly that they ended their funmaking and startvll their respective vehicles ambling in a homeward direction. 7' V 'FY 'A-T7 vi U 'kiwi -W VFW Y rl--' - L?'273'iTj7r'4,.,-?

S. had a very quiet C77 pep meeting on the night of Novem- ber 7. It was the evening preceding the Sapulpa game and the object was to pep up the rooters. The auditorium was packed with Preps, Subs, Freshies, Sophs, Juniors- and Seniors with their noise-makers and noise. All were filled with the proper spirit. In fact, they were so enthusi- astic that even Mary found it difficult to quiet them. As soon as the gang was brought to attention several of the Bull Dogs boosters gave hort and snappy talks. Among these were Doc Sloan Vlr. T. T. Blakely and Elmo Petrie. Then Mary led the mob IH a few loud and vociferous yells, after which the word was given to lme up for the grand parade through the main thoroughfare. The mob needed only the word because they couldnt po sibly have curbed their enthusiasm lon 'er. They marched through the street of the old home town pausing onlv to grve a few yells now and then to wake up the innocent bystanders and blow out a few street lights with their hot air This was a very successful pep meeting for the following reasons First we were hoarse the next day even unto a whisper econd w awakened the slumberrng street sweepers and third all the Bull Dogs howed bv then beaming countenances that they were visibly delighted Eh, what?

If not, how valuable is it to you? The Gusher Staff planned a means -by which the popularity of mem- bers of the fair sex could sell subscriptions to the Annual. And did they sell? fThat's a rhetoric question and not supposed to be answered. Like the question, Can a duck sWim? l There were eight candidates in the race, the winers: of which were Maurice Gregory, Mary Garner Bozarth, Virginia Voorhees, Mary Francis and Spark Plug. Spark Plug was the dark horse of the contest and his identity is still a deep, dark secret. Isn't it, Abe? QI mean Barneyl. Sparky was the one candidate that made all the others look to their laurels and confer with their campaign managers with distressing sighs and long faces. The queens of hearts sold over 300 Annuals with their looks and lines-or I should say, Caught many studes with their hooks and lines?

Th k ' ' 'th its playful zero mark. Thanksgiving? n an mu an Sglvmg W1 Thereuis no joy to equal playing football on Thanksgiving. Not even playing Blind Man's Buff on top of the Woolworth building. The exquisite delight of failing to get the ball from thg clutches of the enemy and of finding oneself instead clutching a hunk of mud. Sweet, unadulterated mud. Soft, caressing mud. Mud. M-U-D! The. pleasure at finding oneself so near-in such close contact with nature 1S overwhelming. Sometimes even the little flakes of mud roll into our wide-open mouths. Yes, sweet mud. Often when the enemy is your heels you fall into a soft bed of mud. How like a feather bed it seemsj Dear mud, again when you are nearing your .goal you slide on the mud sooner even than you suspect, and thi.s recalls to your memory how you used to make those mud pies of your childhood and would while away the hours nibbling on the same. CThe pies, not the hoursy. On Thanksgiving your best girl braves the weather and stands lone- somely under an umbrella on the sidelines, her eyes fastened on you, her complexion running wildly over her face, her marcelled locks slowly, stead- ily straightening out to greet the sunshine tif there had been anyj. Oc- casionally, she croaks like a frog with seaweed entangled in its vocal chords. This outburst is interpreted by a veteran as Fight, Bull Dogs, Fight! Only ia veteran would have thought of that. - Such are a few of the joys of football on Thanksgiving. P. S. The score was 13-0, in favor of the winners CO. H. SJ DECEMBER 19 Santa Comes to O. H. S.

He enters the stage with a loud laugh and proceeds in a hurrying manner. He laughs loudly when he delivers some .suitable .though .amus- ing gift. The student body soon gets- into the spirit and J0'HS ln h1S ffe' quent laughter. , This year Santa delved into his pack and brought out a pair of h0S0 for Miss Donnelly. The person addressed, blushing noticeably went to the stage to receive the gift. Maurice Gregory received a toy cow so She could satisfy her insatible thirst for milk.

Campbell, Junior's, birthday. l You see, Paul N., Jr., is the Senior Mascot. It is quite a responsibility for one so young, but it hasn't made him one bit conceited. He just gurgles so contentedly whenever anyone mentions his position and starts chewing on his little ring the Seniors gave him. The mascot is a cute little chap and, oh! he certainly knows how to twist his honorable papa around his little finger. Paul N., Jr., has dark brown hair, blue eyes and weighs 16 fwholel 1 pounds. ,Another thing, he has a set of perfectly PAUL N., JR. good lungs. I don't think Mr. Campbell needs an alarm clock to wake him in the morning. Paul N., Jr., takes his vocal exercise then. When the Seniors chose him as their mascot, he made a formal accept- ance immediately. His letter indicated that he was, indeed, thrilled with the honor thrust upon him and that he hoped he brought luck to the class. fAnd in spite of the 13th he has.l The fact that his Dad was pleased as much as he, was also mentioned. thee-gtg-Lag-griaggi-921531-iff I-P l 1- '-ki'- ' 'f 5 Q J 1 -I, ,,4,,.i., svxgf-rw Q 53841 il-2 '13 ,L s ,, t LF W if It----W-4----we-if gwfv-v '1'1 i cv s ' e t 9 E C f R ady-to- Wear i Ivgrciiilriggflgggzs Worjen and Misses oUR GAIM: f'lVAIL'47+L'4':sN- REJJIQBE ' Q EE ESRVB i Q cfxooog i , 1 FAITHFULLY K, , .

The graduates from these schools are indeed, unfortunate, for in after years there is no bond, no tie that binds them t otheir Alma Mater. They seldom are very lnterested in it. Why'?. Because everything has completely changed since they were plodding into the schoolroom. .Now O. S. has a tradition, The Excelsior Literary Society. This society, ever since it was founded early in the twentieth century, has re- tained the same ideals, standards and customs. It has been an organiza- tlon upon which the school may rely, an organization of accomplishment and service. Because it IS of venerable years the society has been re- spected greatly and students have sought membership eagerly. Each year the society hsa given a play and donated the money ob- tained to some worthy cause or to make some improvement in O. H. S. This year the society celebrated February 19 as Excelsior Day. A day upon which the history and past deeds of the society were reviewed, a day when the true Excelsior spirit prevailed. Each member wore to the meeting the colors, gold and blue, and an inspiring and somewhat amusing program was given. Let us hope the Excelsiors will keep up the traditions and forever excel in their accomplishments. The program given was: Longfellow's Excelsior ..................................

Gladys Manzer and Harroll Tannery wuz de Chietest of bums. Many wuz de hoboes present and dere. Some hopped de train from. Henryetta and even some come from Distant Slick. Dressed in our woist we filed in the meetin' place and shouted, whistled, rang bells and chawecl gum to our fullest extent and degree. And some of the burnmest ones did the surprisingest things. Milton Shefts walked up to a real hobo on the way to school and siad, Hello, Andy, and the bum just blinked at him from the box car. , AS WUZ trying to Say, the whole, complete, entire mob was roaring like a lion on its war path when a fellow hobo slipped upon the stage and who was it but that guy, Campbell. He had the regular hobo swag- ger stick with a bandana kerchief on the end of it. He was greeted with claps-CI can't spell applawse, so I writes clapsl. Then this guy, Camp- bell, gets off some purty lively ones on hisself, the bums, and everyone in general. And his say is said. Then the weary, footsore, fellow train hopper, Van Sant, is ushered in and he tells of his travels on the way to the convention. I guess he'd been practicing that bow for three weeks ahead of time so's he'd get it persactly posotively just as she should be done. Anyhow and way he did the act like an actor or toe-dancer. Then someone yells, Who's got loose feet? and up jumps Wilbur With a-Winsome winning smile and sez he's got 'em. Georgie then bangs the pianer and Wilbur starts to jiggin' and jigs till a board on the floor starts ,squeakin'. Then he retires to take his shoes to a shoe shop to have 'em resoled. The favorite hobo from each section then tripped gaily across the stage tryin' to impress you with that Look-at-me-aren't-I-not-perty-etc. smile. Some of the gals looked like the advertisement for soap. You know the kind which says before and after. This was before. All the better class of bums don't associate with those stage-struck dummies nohow. And last but not biggest was the little auto run by an engine QI sup- posel that jest run in on the -stage so quietly which contained Harroll, the chief bum and candidate for the Bums' Society of Lazy Laborers of New Yawka City. He was given the old warm welcome of the Brotherhood. He made a short and flowery speech, saying somethin', I forget what, and his sub- ject was, Hoboes Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday and Day Before Yester- day Afternoon . Well, after that he sez all aboard for the parade down the main boulevards. We paraded the city perty thoroughy and adver- tised our distinguished, disguised and disorderly mob 'far and near.

Q, o o USH Eg . .,,, Red Letter' Days APRIL 24 State Interscholastic and Track Meet For weeks the cry of O. H. S. was, On to Norman for Victory. The contestants for the trip were chosen from their regular classes, there was no special training, no coaching, but honest competition in regular class work. When the smoke had cleared from the various classrooms and those who were to represent O. H. S. at Norman were proclaimed a special meeting was held and information dispensed to all. After the chaperones had taken their choice of the lowers, the hat was passed around and the slips drawn for the bunk numbers. When the Pullmanfs- were parked in Norman the news was telegraphcd, in detail, to the anxious ones back home by Mr. Sears. The telegram read: My only worries are the teachers. Cornell, Hixon and Maddox have crush on Dean Holmerg. Keeps me busy checking up on Campbell and Barton-otherwise one continuous round of festivities at Oklahoma City. Bakery robbed of twenty-five loaves of bread last night. Detectives found wrappers in Yeast-Bread Voltmer's bunk. To be arrested today on cir- cumstantial evidence. We are trying to keep it out of the papers. Weaver and Hantula broadcast the Star Spangled Banner from their bunk every night. Lowell O'Bannon froze his feet standing at attention. Girls' car is so quiet you could almost hear a cannon explode. While this news was being Sent to Okmulgee the information leaked out that Clifford had won first in Chemistry and that Louise had W011 first in Zoology. Think of it--two firsts and the returns just beginning to come in. Mary Lou left the train-sick Virginia long enough to take a third in the essay writing contest. About this time Carroll began broad- casting the news that Winifred had won one first and two thirds in the home economics department. Abe and Charles talked the judges out of a second in each of their events while Charles won first in the written work of his contest. Max ran all the way to the car to break the news that he took third in the original oration contest. Ralph, the radio bug, also placed, while Herbert Van Sant slid in 011 his trombone for third. To break the monotony, the weather man let it rairl Clufing' the TC' mainder of the trip and a wet time was had by all. When Mr. Sears had burned up hiS typewriter and fwo adding machines checking up the reports, it was found that O. H.. S. had WON third in the entire meet and that the Okmulgee representatives had won more points per individual than those of any other school in OlCl3l10l11H- , ,9- Y- l ,fin 'qt ., , sm 4 ,,. ,gnu .1 r?,..,:-....,.,T.....,.7.5..,... . .

Although they call it a howl, I must confess I heard neither howling nor barking. In fact, they acted quite civilized, fdespite their canine namej. Honest! The special guests of the evening were Principal and Mrs. Campbell, Mr. Barton, the club's sponsor, and Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Haas, the honorary sponsors. Here's another proof the name hound is only figurative. During the evening a perfectly lovely program was given, and it was mostly im- promptu, too. ' P 'Charles Reed gave a little talk on the Purpose and Future of the Pep Hounds, which was followed by a resume of the Pep Hounds, many activities by Principal Campbell. President Tannery introduced Julian Wilkinson, ex-president of the organization and one of its founders. Julian was proud of the progress the Hounds have made and made no attempt to hide his satisfaction. Then saving the best for last, little Lowell O'Bann0n blew some bub- bles and prophesied the future of the fair members of the fair organi- zation. He predicted that Harroll Tannery, because of his marvelous ability in Algebra, would have a wonderful career as a bridge-builder. Ahem! William Edward Knapp, he predicted, would make a very successful public auctioneer because of his yell-leading experience. Maybe that Will quiet Billy for a while. Archibald Belford, noted for his saxophone play- ing and acting, would be another Wallie Reid. O-Ma-rice! Lowell greatly commended 'Carroll on his excellent judgment. You see, Winifred won two places in Home-making. Then Lowell glanced across the room to Charles Reed-Charles Reed, uished-Charles Reed, of the the invincible-Charles Reed, the unvanq r D silvery tongue and golden mouth, from which words spring like ra1l1d1'0PS M' J ' 3 5 fhglfg 3 sprung sentence. spring in the springtime. C iss essie s y Mgybe so. I guess she knowsl. Anyhow, Mr. Lowell O'Bannon prophesied that Charles would be 2 other Pat Henry and the President of the United States. Charles gave him a quarter..

The day when lollypops were more in demand than text books fand more interestingl. Q What is so rare as a day in May, When Seniors on Kid Day go out to play. Aren't we the struggling poet? Don't say no, say --. It sounds better and not everyone understands French. Every Senior Class seemed to be a representative first grade class. There Was usually sissy with'big goggles, Buster Brown collar and Percy tie, there was the m1sch1ev1ous little kid, the nice little goody-goody girl with a large ribbon, a party dress and pink sashg and there was the little tomboy who was always pinching the person she sat by. In Miss Freyschlag's and Cornell's advisor the kiddies were 100 per cent. program was in order. Little Mary Francis favored the class with a little song entitled, A Forggie,Went A-wooing Go-m-m-m-m. She sang it very sweetly, especially emphasizing the m-m-m's, which was very effective. Then Lula May said her piece, Little Feet, Be Tareful Where You Take Me To, which was also sweet, fbut we don't know about the little feetlj Then amid a thousand oh's and ah's Mises Freyschlag related the story of the Three Bears, and just when she came to the soup the old bell rang and the kiddies had to move. But all day long the fun lasted. The climax was reached at the Baby Show held in assembly. The babies of the Senior 'Class participated. The show was a scream from beginning to end. A typical baby show was held. The gushing, prominent clubwoman introduced the welfare worker. The Welfare worker was an old maid and an inte1'ested observer of kids and she raved on at great length about the innocent little minds of the dear little ones, opening like rosebuds, as it were. The cast of the playlet included: ' Prominent Clubwoman, Ted Pierce. Welfare Worker, Joy Mills. Nurse, Helen Odell. Lowell O'Bannon, the under-fed baby, with Gladys Griffis as his mother. Mary Tripodi, with her nagging mother, Mary Francis. Carroll Becker, the mischievous baby, with Dorothy Farrel, the indif- ferent mother. Walton Christian, the sissy kid, with Maurice Gregory, his doting mother. Lula Riddle, the nice little girl, and Mildred Munday, the proud mother. Jessie Ellen Peden and Billy Knapp, the uncongenial twins, and their mother, Geraldine Aggas. - A dl t, Allie Walker, the fat, chumpy baby fheight about 9 feet 2 inchesj, who was rolled in a, perambulator fwheel chairl by mother, Kid Day was nothing if not kiddish, and all the kids had loads of fun, P, S, Migss C0rnell's English Lit Class played, Old Mother Hubbard' Valdor was the dog and little Nell was Old Mother Hubbard. But Valdol wouldn't stand on his head 'cause he was afraid he'd muss his curls. ,ui:.:.-5 A V A . - Y Q f- -- AH '- ' f ' ' ' flu - q ii , V .-1 --f was-.wr 11.1, '- ' 1- l 3.3, ...f ,,,1,,5,,,,,g,,4,.:,g.:,,g.,,g,:,,,,f---fi-94?-123-f-f'-fQue-I T' 'TTY 'f 'Hi - H 1 1, fq- ,siuv ' N M W m I I ly f 'f7'Li', 1- JJ :Um J' 7 f' IV X I 0 f :K lx xx I Q I I ' Good Cztzzenshzp Be- 1.,W,., -. , 1 1 'fffhkyf N , rx I: V, ffl gms zn the Heart I -mf g , .fg ,m 11 H V f t QL O t Q J iq f ly- H 54 1 'lla I I 1-gUl'2-L F f 'm,fliF19,f 23 IW' L f1 l' ',L E .
