The high school consists of the upper six grades of the training school (7 to 12, inclusive), administered as a single unit, with the two-fold purpose of setting up a desirable form of high school organization suitable for small cities, villages and consolidated schools, and of affording prospective teachers an opportunity to teach in such a school under the supervision of competent critic teachers the subjects they likely will instruct in when they go to the field. Enrollment in Russell High School is open to all students of good moral character not more than two years overage who pass the entrance examinations, which test the mental ability and preparation of the candidate. The program of studies includes practically all recognized Junior and senior high sehool subjects and some of vocational na- ture. Opportunity is afforded to study music and art, and to participate in group piano, voice and orchestral instruction. Physical education is required, and a period in the daily schedule is set aside for a coordinated extra-curricu- lar program that includes home-rooms, clubs and assembly. The scholastic stan- dards of the school are high, thoroughness in lesson preparation is exacted, and weekly report are made to parents of children doing unsatisfactory work. Administrative devices such as objective tests, physical examinations, exemp- tions, exemption based on scholarship and attendance, and individual confer- ences with pupils are used. The sehool is a member of the North Central As- sociation of Colleges and Schools, and as such is fully accredited by all insti- tutions of higher learning that belong to the group.

MiMM The Southeastern Student Council The Student Council of the Southeastern Teachers College, selected at a special meeting the first week of school, has accomplished more than any other council in the history of the institution. This group is composed of: Hicks Epton, President; Whitt Abbott, Vice-President; Veda McClendon, Secretary- Treasurer; Lewis Armstrong, and Lloyd McLeskey. From the day of their election, the council members have functioned. In the early autumn they printed a Southeastern Yell Book, and then supported the college annual when others hesitated to give it a thought. Moreover, they sponsored the Friendship Fire, cementing many friendships among organiza- tions and individuals. Later in the year they assisted in presenting “The Mollusc” to the student body, promoted an athletic show for the boxing and wrestling champions, and helped bring Bliss Carmen, the noted Canadian poet, here. This body, too, put over constitutional amendments repealing the honor system and giving the Russell High School the right to govern themselves, independently of the Savage body, and with the coming of spring, the council is directly the extemporaneous speaking contests and many other things that will benefit the school. There have been very few disciplinary problems, but the manner in which the student council has handled them, has brought praise from the authorities. The council has a positive influence—not a negative one as some expected, and the whole student body has benefited from their activities. « A A sBp PAGE NINETY-FIVE i waSiwiHiiraiapp ITHE191ft.SOUTH EASTERN DEBATE TEAMS Hicks Epton Calvin Bruce, William Parrish JULIA MUNSON Sponsor Roscoe Goins Clara Schell Thompson Shannon PAGE NINETY.BIX ®PJ!!!!!!SSSiit THEl 92ft SOU! H EASTERN £ 1 The Southeastern Debating Teams The debaters this season are determined to put forensics on a higher plane by raising the qualifications of debaters, and by securing a more enthusiastic support from the student body. It is our prophecy that our teams will win victories this season and glorify Southeastern. Hicks Epton represented Southeastern in debate and oratory in 1927. He is diligent in research, keen in analysis of the proposition, and forceful in his reasoning. He comes from the Senior Class. Joe Apple, a Junior, represented our school in debate last year, with honor. He is an untiring worker, and apt in finding fallacies in argument. Thompson Shannon represented Durant High School from 1925 to 1927. He is a remarkable combination of musician and public speaker. Being talent- ed in several other things besides debating, Thompson has, made sacrifices to devote time to debate. Roscoe Goins is also a product of Durant High School. He studies his sub- ject well and debates with intense enthusiasm. Alvin Bruce debates this year for the first time. He is to be congratu- lated on getting on the college team during his Freshman year. He has an insight into problems of government. William Parrish is thorough in his study of tfye problem and delivers his argument in a convincing manner. Clara Schell has the distinction of being the only girl in debate this year. Her poise on the stage, her ability to express her ideas with splendid diction, and her alertness in handling rebuttal are outstanding. SCHEDULE.

Coach Dillard Eubank is one of those men who, after their college days were over, returned to their Alma Mater to help win new laurels for the school. Three years ago, while Mr. Eubank was playing half-back on Southeastern's championship teams, he was being hailed as one of the greatest football play- ers ever to be developed in Oklahoma. After being graduated in 1925, he went to Wilson to coach, and there immediately gained state-wide recogni- tion by the fine football teams that he produced. In 1927, Mr. Eubank came to Southeastern where he encountered many difficulties. High school recruits who were new to the game made up the team. In spite of this, he developed a fine defensive team which played three 0-0 games, one with a powerful offensive team. The season was devoted to building up team work so that next year a drive can be made for the state championship. Coach Eubank has a bright future ahead of him with fine prospects for a winning, team next year because few of its members will be lost by graduation. He has the faculty of securing the cooperation of teachers, students, and alum- ni, all of whom pull for Coach Eubank and Southeastern. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-TWO usoesnas THE1928 SOUTHEASTERN iniiaiia Review of The 1927 Football Season, Southeastern discovered that an exceptionally high class of football is be- ing played in Oklahoma when its football teams came up against some of the strong teams of the state. Most of Southeastern’s men were new to college football this year, a fact which made the games won doubly prized. But since only one man will be lost by graduation, 1928, 1929 and 1930 should be Southeastern years. The Savages started the season slowly against the Murray Aggies, Sep- tember 16, but managed to win, 7-0. The next Friday they journeyed to Greenville where they displayed a first-class defensive game by holding the strong Burleson College team to a 0-0 tie. September 30, they met their old rival, Austin College, at Denison, but lost the game, 19-7, and also the services of Moore ,whose hand was broken. The absence of Moore from the line was the deciding factor in the loss to Phillips the following Saturday at Durant by an 8-6 score. October 14, Oklahoma Baptist University invaded Southeastern and won, 18-0. The next week, Southeastern returned to Greenville to play Wesley Col- lege, this time with a 0-0 score. This score seemed popular with them, for on November 4, Southeastern played Edmond with a 0-0 tie. The previous week the strong Central Teachers College team had tied Oklahoma University. On Home Coming Day, November 11, our team lost to O. C. U., 42-6. A string wind favored Oklahoma City, materiality helping to lessen the staying powers of Southeastern. In spite of this discouragement, the Savages tackled Tulsa University at Tulsa, November 19, where they made more first downs and more yardage from scrimmage than did Tulsa, but lost 32-0, to the perfect passing machine of their opponents. At Ada, Thanksgiving, Southeastern won her most brilliant victory over her ancient rival, East Central, by a score of 18-0. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-THREE TH E192fl SOIJT H EASTERN BOB “BIG SPECK” SUMRALL, Captain, Altus Junior. Three Years. End—quarter—back. Weight 163 Lbs. Bob fulfilled the trust placed in him when he was elected captain by performing con- sistently all season. He held the confidence of his coach and all the team. Eubank shifted him from end to quarter in the middle of the season because of his experience, and in that position he played just as brilliantly as he had done at end for the past three years. DAN “BULL SMOYER, Captain-Elect, Ardmore Freshman. One year. Tackle. Weight 158 Lbs. Although “Bull” was light for a guard he was the mainstay on the Savage line on both offense and de- fense. Smoyer always out-fought his heavier oppo- nents. PAUL “GEORGE” WASHINGTON Tulsa Junior. One Year. Quarter-Back. Weight 138 Lbs. Paul was the best broken-field runner on the squad. He is light, but is a great field general and undoubtedly will direct the play of the Savages next season. mm PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-FOUR JULIUS “JU” JOHNSON, Ardmore Junior. One Year. End. Weight 165 Lbs. Johnson was one of the best blockers and interfer- ence runners on the team, and he played a great part in the 18-0 Savage victory over Ada. CALVIN 4‘MAMIE’7 BEAMS, Kingston Freshman. One Year. Half-Back. Weight 150 Lbs. Beams was the only Savage player to receive State recognition, being placed on the All-State Second Team. Because of his speed, he was best on end runs and returning punts. .REESE “ROSY” McCORD, Wilson Freshman. One Year. Guard. Weight 165 lbs. Reese was a great team-mate for Smyore. He was light like Smoyer, but he performed brilliantly in every game. Reese is another three year man. PAGE ONE.HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE J rvj$ THE1928SOUTHEASTERN CARL “RUDOLPH” BUCK, Kingston Freshman. One Year. Tackle. Weight 185 Lbs. Buck was a veritable giant on the football field and a giant who knows how to play football. He was one of the reasons for three 0-0 battles in 1927. MORGAN “RED DOG” KERR, Wilson Freshman. One Year. End. Weight 168 Lbs. Kerr cinched an end position this year early in the season with his vicious tackling. He never let up a minute during the remainder of the season. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-SIX ly jmnr Q THE 1918 SOLT H EASTERN LLOYD “PUSH” CHAPMAN, Antlers Freshman. One year. Half-back. Weight 155 Lbs. Injuries throughout the season handicapped Chap. However, he was the best punter in the con- ference and a real defensive half. MARVIN “BIG TUMBLE” Moore, • Durant Freshman. One year. Center. Weight 204 Lbs. Moore was our heaviest and most aggressive lines- man. He was in the midst of every play. Marvin also did part of the punting. Injury kept Moore from proving his potential power this year, but he should develop into the best center in the state in 1928. TOM “DUKE” BRIDGES, Asherton, Texas. Freshman. One year. Half-back. Weight 170 Lbs. Because of injuries Tom got a late start this season and failed to get a little needed experience. Experi- ence should make him a great half, for he is unus- ually fast and has three more years. His tackling was excellent this year. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-SEVEN TH E191A 50UIH EASTERN HARRY “FUZZY” LANE, Ilaileyville Freshman. One year. Tackle.

JOE NEELEY, Poteau Freshman. One year. Guard. Weight 186 Lbs. Neeley was the fastest linesman on the team as well as one of the most powerful. lie developed into a real linesman the latter part of the season and should be one of the best in 1928. WILLIS “KIOWA” McBRIDE Idabel Senior. Three years. Tackle. Weight 183 Lbs. Mack was the man with the touseled hair and the broad smile. His great power was a large factor in the strength of the Savage forward wall, and he will be missed next year. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-EIGHT THE1926SOUTHEASTERN LEONARD SAILORS Antlers Freshman.

THE 192A SOUTH EASTERN PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-ONE THE 1928 SOUT H EASTERN c° PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-TWO IS THE 1928 SOUTHEASTERN COACH BRENNAN WITT Coach Brennan Witt is another famous athlete of Southeastern, who has returned to coach the students of his Alma Mater. In his college days he played football as a running mate for Coach Dillard Eubank. For two years he was placed on Oklahoma’s All-State football teams. He also made basket- ball history at Southeastern and was graduated in 1925 with the name of be- ing the greatest basketball player ever developed in Oklahoma. Now he has returned to guide Savage basketball teams to more state championships. Al- though he is new at college coaching, he is so much at home with a basketball that he inspires confidence, pep and ambition in his players to such a degree that they always give their best for him. The combination of a great coach and wonderful maerial is making basketball fans of Southeastern look forward with confidence toward a state championship. PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR THEI9MS0UTHEASTE«N| Review of the 1928 Baskefball Season Basketball prospects at Southeastern looked very bright at the beginning of the 1928 season. Coach Witt had six letter man back and several of the best high school recruits in Oklahoma pushing them closely and when the game came January 21, with 0. C. U. at Oklahoma City no player had a berth cinched. Starting the O. C. U. game with a veteran line-up of Captain Davis, Zinnecker, Sumerall, Yarborough and Laughlin, Southeastern smothered 0. C. U. 33-18 and two days later Edmond followed at Durant. Again the Savages ran up a large score 52-27. Our ancient foes from Ada fared no better January 23, and lost on the Southeastern court 51-30. Developing strength and power and team-work as they went, the Savages swept Northwestern and O. B. XL off the court, the scores, being 38-35 and 40-30 respectively. After taking a ten day rest Southeastern jourpeyed to Weather- ford and defeated Southwestern------February 8. The next night they won from Northwestern at Alva 37-21. On their return home they scalped Northeastern thoroughly in two games. Led by Davis and Laughlin it began to appear that Southeast- ern was unbeatable and to strengthen that claim they humbled the famous Sterling Milk Team 32-30 in an exciting game before the largest crowd ever to see a basketball game in Durant. With nine state scalps hanging at their belts they invaded Ada only to lose 34 43 on a very small court. Disheartened by a possible State Championship they fell an easy victim the next night, February 25, to 0. B. U. losing 39-53. The Savages then entered the Southern A. A. U. championship tournament at Dallas but after going to the semi-finals in an im- pressive manner Proctor and Gamble of Dallas found them at their worst and for the third time in as many years Southeastern lost in a S. A. A. U. tournament by one point 28-29. Southeastern should have a wonderful team next year as Cap- tain Davis is the only man lost by graduation. PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-FIVE PESSSSii THE1916 SOUTHEASTERN CAPTAIN DEE DAVIS Durant There years. Forward. Captain Davis is the Savages5 best for the all-state honor this year, being a second all-state man in 1927 and second leading scorer in the Conference. He is cool-headed, a fine floor and team man and has the most accu- rate eye for the basket of any man in the confer- ence. Davis is inlaying his last and most successful year for S. T. C. CHARLES ZINNECKER Durant Two years. Forward. Charlie is the fastest court man on the squad, an accurate dribbler, and a quick thinker, and teamed with Davis, offers a fast and formidable offense. Although a little erratic in goal tossing, Charlie is always near the top in the scoring list. The Savages are fortunate in that they can depend on Charlie for two more years of wonderful playing. JOE LAUGHLIN Rokchito Two years. Guard-Forwrard. Joe is a demon under the basket. Being strong and tall he has only to get hold of the ball to score a goal even with two or three men on him. At guard, his man gets no set- ups and seldom scores. He unfailings plays the game smoothly and brilliantly. PAGE ONE HUNORED THIRTY-SIX ',in s QLO «S Jlh; CT lTHE192fl SOUTHEASTERN! BOB SMRALL Altus Bob completely loses his unassuming manner when he gets on the basketball court, playing with an aggressiveness, completely foreign to him. Never rattled, never off, Bob always smothers his man and feeds the ball to his teammates with lightning speed and accuracy. Sumrall, like Yarborough, rarely takes a shot, but when he does it is good for two points. VENDALL YARBOROUGH Durant Two. years. Center-Guard. Vendall came to Southeastern with a great record as a defensive guard, and during his two years with the Savages has more than lived up to that record. He blocks more shots than any guard in the conference and is the main “cog” in the Savage defense machine. WILLIAM CARR Healdton One year. Center. This is Carr’s first year as a college player, but nevertheless, Bill was good enough to be a very valuable man to the Savage team of veterans. Carr is rangy, is a good team man, and like Laughlin, is a fine follow-up man under the basket. Carr has three brilliant years ahead of him at Southeastern. PAGE ONE HUNDRED TH IRTY-SEVEN THE1926 SOUTHEASTERN! ffo murwi LEWIS ARMSTRONG Durant Three Years. Center. Due to the high class of Savage basketball Lewis was never able to stand out as an individual player, but when in a game, he could always be relied on to give his best and score a few points for old Southeastern. SKEERY” FANNIN Durant Three Years. Guard. “Skeery” missed most of the season on account of appendicitis but was able to show the fans that he still was the “Skeery” of 1924. His dribbling and passing should be a big asset in the Savage offense in 1929. HARLAN PAUL WASHINGTON Tulsa One Year. Guard. Paul was a fine dribbler and passer and should push the veteran guards next year. PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-EIGHT !i J!!!!!!S8i@igC THE1926 SOUTHEASTERN! MiHIligEiili 1928 S. T. C.

Cross Country Team STEPHEXSOX, PRICE, DAVIS AND KISER This is the first year that S. T. C. has had a Cross-Country Team, and this year only one contest was held, the Savages winning from Ada, placing Steph- enson first, Price second, Davis third, and Kiser fifth. Although the Southeastern Track Teams have not won as a group so many honors as some of our other teams have, they have always made a good record. In 1927 the Savages won one dual meet with Austin College 56-51 and lost three weeks later to the same team 521 2-541 2 In the State Meet at Shawnee, Southeastern took fourth place in an exceptionally strong field, winning sev- eral seconds and thirds. With the addition of some of the best high school stars in the state, prospects for an exceptional track team arc very bright. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-TWO THE 192ft SOUTHEASTERN CARL STEPHEN SON- Durant -Captain 1928 Two Years. Mile—Two Mile. Carl lived up to his high school reputation in his first year of college competition in 1927, winning several firsts in dual meets and taking second in a fast mile at the State Inter-Collegiate Meet at Shawnee. Great things are expected of this thin little “distance” man in the future. MURL PRICE—Captain 1927 Durant Four Years. Mile-Two Mile. “Red” has been a consistent point winner in the distances during his past three years of varsity competition and should beat his best this season. HORACE MANAHAN Arkadelphia, Arkansas Three Years. High Hurdler—High Jumper. Although Manahan has had very stiff competition in his events during the past two years he has always been one of our highest point men in meets. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-THREE JOE APPLE Durant Two Years. Pole Vault—Broad Jump. Al- though last year was Apple’s first year of track com- petition, he was able to take first in two dual meets and tie for second in the pole-vault at the State Meet One Year. High Jump—Pole Vault. Sailors should place high in college competition, for his high school track record is imposing. He is a consistent 5 feet'll inch high jumper and a 11 foot pole vaulter. CALVIN BEAMS Kingston One Year. Sprints—Hurdles—Broad Jump. Southeastern got an excellent all-round track man when Beams of Kingston came to the Savages. In high school he bettered some of our Inter-Collegiate records and we expect him to make even greater records at Southeastern. LEONARD SAILORS Antlers PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-FOUR .il.l'Mt THE 191A SOUTH EASTERN PAUL McCREADY Durant One Year. Shot—Discus. Coming to South- eastern with a high school district record in 123 feet in the Discus, “Peer” is certain of placing in all the Savage meets in the Discus and is almost as cer- tain of making some points in the shot also. CARL BUCK Kingston One Year. Shot—Discus. Buck should make one of the best weight men in the conference. He has ample weight and power but is handicapped by improper form which he is rapidly improving. j®gac gr PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-FIVE i THE 1918 SOUTHEASTERN I Mjgmnw'iiiBBiiBiaBM! CLAUD LEONARD Hugo One Year. High Jump. Claud may be depend- ed upon to score points in track as well as tennis. His specialty in track is the high jump. FLETCHER DAVIS McAlester One Year. Half Mile. Fletcher proved his ability as a distance man on the Cross-Country, fin- ishing third to our two experienced distance men, Stephenson and Price. ELBY CLARK Grant One Year. Quarter—Relay.. Coining from Grant High School where he was one of the mainstays in track, Elby should develop into a fast quarter-miler. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTYSIX THE1916 SOUTH EASTERN SI Tennis Tennis at Southeastern has not been all that it should have been in the past. The teams had no courts, money nor equipment. Going to the state meets, they were severely handicapped by lack of practice on cement courts and lack of experience in tournament competition. They have, however, given a good account of them- selves, Armstrong and Apple bringing to Southeastern one singles championship and two runners-up (one in singles and one in doubles) in the last three years. With new courts to work on this year, and with two promising high school men coming out. South- eastern is favored to take both the single and doubles championship in 1928. LEWIS ARMSTRONG AND JOE APPLE PAGE ONE HUNDREO FORTY-SEVEN wiSiis THE1926SOUTH EASTERN Lewis Armstrong Durant. Durant Three years. Captain 1926-27. Buba” has been one of the best college men in the state for several years having vic- tories over such men as: English, Okla- homa A. M.: Mason and Brown, O. U. In 1925 and 1926 he was ranked No. 3 and No. 4 respectively on Collegiate teams and with Apple No. 2 in doubles In 1925. “Buba” is rangy, has a powerful service, plays an all-court game and is tireless. Four years. Captain 1925-27. Apple was Oklahoma’s Collegiate single cham- pion in 1925 and runners-up in 1927. He, like Armstrong, plays an all-court game but lacks the stamina of his lanky part- ner. Teamed together they make one of the best doubles combinations in the state. This is Apple’s fourth and last year of tennis competition for Southeast- ern. Walter Leonard Hugo Leonard Hugo One year. Claud specializes in doubles and with his brother makes a formidable team. Leonard was one of the outstand- ing freshman players .t Oklahoma A. M. last year. One year. While in High School in 1926, Walter won the Southeastern dis- trict singles and should make Southeast- ern a very valuable man with a little more competitive experience. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-EIGHT [S n THE 1926 SOUTHEASTERN The Detroit Conference The highest honor that the Southeastern State Teachers College had to bestow upon any of the members of the Student Body of 1927-28 was the sending of delegates to the tenth quadrennial con- vention of the International Student Volunteer Movement, which met at Detroit, Michigan, December 28-January 1. Hicks Epton, Thompson Shannon and Miss Ann Wallis were chosen by a committee made up of faculty members and students to represent Southeastern at this meeting. The trio joined the general Oklahoma delegation at Tulsa and took part in the various sessions of the convention along with the representatives from other states and from many other nations. They brought back to Southeastern a bit of the exhilarating spiritual atmosphere which prevailed at the meeting at Detroit, and which was the chief charm of the convention. PAGE ONE HUNDRE FORTY-NINE L 1THE1926 SOUTHEASTERN] vxzzmmt PRINCESS TE ATA Princess Te Ata was the first entertainer on this year’s pro- gram. Her program of Indian Lore, which has proved exceedingly popular on Chautauqua circuits throughout the East for the last sev- eral years, was well received here in her native state. • TeAta’s father is a Chickasaw chief and lives at Ravia, about forty miles from Durant; so we know that she really is an Indian Princess. Garbed in handsome costumes of beaded buckskin and brilliant col- ored feathers, slender and graceful, with a beautiful voice and won- derful dark eyes, she makes us believe in the idealized savage of Longfellow’s poetry. Her songs, dances, and dramatic readings make up a program of vivid beauty.

A young girl from the South went away to school in the East and her girl friends asked her what her fath- er’s occupation was, she replied that he was a “Southern Planter.” Now he really was an undertaker, but why bring that up ! A few students were overheard talking about the new library. One of them was heard above the rest, saying, “I don’t see why they want a new library building and new books cause I ’ll bet there’s not a stu- dent in Southeastern that has read all those books that they have now.” Two brilliant Freshmen were heard talking about the inscription on the new library building. One of them said, “Well, I know those two men on the outside, Plato and Dante, but I don’t know Sapere or Aude.” D PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-THREE THE 1928 SOUTHEASTERN Limericks There is a teacher named Riling Who always comes to school smiling. But when she gets here She is very severe, So there’s no more use writing. There were three students in Spanish Who tended to be very clannish, They showed cooperation On each examination, ’Till from class they had to vanish. There was a girl named Marjorie. She took a course of cainpusology. She cut every class To sit on the grass, And for this she made no apology. There was a young man from Che- cota Who came to Southeastern by mota’; On account of his looks, He neglected his books, That’s why he made not his quota. There was a certain young man nam- ed Teedle, Who wouldn’t accept his degree; He said, “Its enough to be Teedle, Without being Teedle D. D.” There was a student in S. T.
