DR. A. E. SHEARER To a wonderful person; to a progressive administrator; to a dean who is never too busy to listen to the humblest freshman's problems; to a man whom every student on the campus knows and loves; to our own Southeastern State College dean, Dr. A. E. Shearer, do we dedicate “The Savage of 1951. Page 4 DR. T. T. MONTGOMERY President of Southeastern State College ♦ Sigma Tau Gamma, social fraternity, dedicates this page in memory of their pledge, Bob Montgomery. Bob Montgomery, 22, was killed in an automobile accident March 4, 1951. GOVERNOR JOHNSTON MURRAY Page 8 DR. A. E. SHEARER One of the most admired, beloved, and respected figures on the Southeastern campus is Dr. A. E. Shearer, dean of the college. Although persistently busy with his duties as college administrator, Dean Shearer always has time for a friendly chat with Southeastern students. His ideal of good scholastic rating coupled with participation in activities and social life has helped much to raise the standards of the-studenti Dean Shearer’s patience and understanding have inspired many students to aspire foi higher goals in life. This is Dr. Shearer’s thirteenth year at Southeastern. He took his B.A. de- gree at Lincoln Memorial University, M.A. at Mercer University, and Ph.D. at Peabody College. Secretary to Dr. Shearer is Mrs. Dexter Smith. Page 9 To the Students of Southeastern State College: The atmosphere of an institution is the subtle spirit and pervading influence that surrounds it. College atmosphere lives in memory and in history. College spirit, traditions and atmosphere are caught by every generation of students like the faint aroma of incense lingering in sacred halls. Music and song, poetry and painting, stories oft repeated and dim unspoken memories carry these subtle qualities down through the years. Atmosphere belongs to the college itself. It has been created by the genera- tion of students who have lived, learned and loved within its walls. Here the faith of parents in their sons and daughters mingles with the high ambitions and sturdy efforts of youth. Here is hope sometimes tinged with doubt — for many have won but some have lost — the way of learning is not always light. Here are friends and friend- ships — sweethearts and lasting loves. Activities too — athletics, forensics and dramatics; bright lights and banquet guests; music and a college dance; lessons to do — hard chores at worst — creative acts at best; customs to be learned and ob- served; traditions to be respected; the atmosphere of your college—the atmosphere in which you live. Acquire it; contribute to it; improve it; maintain it. T. T. MONTGOMERY, President Page 10 in JOHN L. PROPS John L. Props, dean of men at Southeastern, has gained the admiration of the student body with his frankness of manner in giving guidance and counsel. Dean Props has been a faculty member at Southeastern for 24 years, and has repeatedly proved his interest in the young men of Southeastern. As chemistry professor and pre-medical advisor, Mr. Props has been instrumental in starting an im- pressive number of Southeastern students in success- ful medical careers. Dean Props took B.S. and M.S. degrees at the University of Oklahoma and has done graduate work at the same university. Page 12 DR. KATHLEEN GILLARD One of the most capable and well-qualified wom- en on the Southeastern campus is Dr. Kathleen Gil lard, dean of women. Southeastern girls appreciate the earnestness and sincerity with which Dean Gillard delves into their problems. Dean Gillard’s ambition is to keep standards high for the women of Southeast- ern. Coming to Southeastern last year, Dr. Gillard has an unusually liberal background enriched with much travel abroad. Her A.B. degree is from Alma College in Alma, Michigan. Dr. Gillard has master’s de- grees both in English and personnel administration from Columbia University, and she completed work on her Ph.D. degree at Peabody College last summer. Page 13 C. B.

His record here since the war has been a very itn prewive one. Coach Stevens’ team won the conference llag in 1915 with only one defeat in conference play and again in 1947 when they were defeated only once and that time by a non-conference team. The Savages were co-champions along with Central State College in 1948 and were runners-up in the conference in both 1949 and 1950. In the past live years his teams have won 35 games, lost 13, and tied 1. Coach Stevens also serves as track coach. Here again he has an impressive record. Although the Savages have not won a lr.uk crown in the past live years, they finished second in 1917, 1948, and 1919 They were nosed out by OBT in 1947 by two points, and again in I94H by I 3 j oim. Page 1 U The 1950 Savage , probably one ot the greatest team here in Savage land in the past live years, were unable to prove their |wwcr due to severe injuries throughout the season. The services ol Skinny Stewart were limited to occasional plays. They were also without ihc services ol quarterbacks Tommy Baldwin lor six games due to a broken hand. Practically the entire team was plagued with injuries at one time or another. The highlights of the season were the defeats ol the Southwestern Bulldogs and the East Central Tigers. The victory over the Bulldogs was the greatest triumph of the season, since no other conterente team was able to accomplish this feat. Since the Tigers are an arch rival oi the Savages, their defeat rated a close second to the Weath- erford victory. It was a hard fought battle. with the Tiger trying lor their lirst vie- % tory over the Savages in the past live years. Ik it the stubborn .Savages refused to be de- feated. Although the Savages won only four games, lost four, and lied two, their season was anything but dull. With just a little luck and fewer injuries, it was evident that the Savages could have finished on top and could possibly have gone undefeated. I iimi row, left Ur riglti Paul Itrown.

Northwestern won the game 27 21 scoring their final touchdown in the last three minutes of play to sjx il the Savages hopes. It was the first homecoming game the Savages had lost since the war. It was also the first victory lor the Rangers over the Savages since OCC football was resumed in 1946, The game was a hard fought battle with frequent injuries. Four Southeastern boys were, hurt; Bill Crutcher, Rill Met arson, Dick Allen, and Skinny Stewart. Several Northwestern players were also hurt. Bob Wheat scored two of the Rangers touchdowns and Jell 1 entireth accounted for the oth- er two. Storing for the Savages were “Roundboy West, Skinny Stewart, and Don Townsend. Stewart three placement kicks found their marls. Although the Rangers were out front by store, the Savages held the edge in statistics. 1 Pudge Bitwris J t' Dick Allen End Andy Mu.sgravc Hack Skinny Stewart Back Leonard Rorcnek Tackle Boyd Converse End Skeetcr England Back Ray West Back Jim Jack Pickens Bat k lx: vel! a net.

BLOOMER SULLIVAN Director of Athletics Head Basketball Coach Coach Sullivan's record as head basketball coach at Southeastern will never be forgotten No other coach in the Oklahoma collegiate conference has a record which will compare with that of Sullivan. During his reign as head mentor he Ius had many championship teams. Very few times have his boys finished lower than runners-up in the conference. Any time another team meets a Sullivan crew they know they must play heads-up basketball all the way to win. The job Coach Sullivan did here this past season was just another verifica- tion of his ability to produce great basketball teams. He really puts his heart into his work, which is probahly one of the secrets of his success. Basketball is only one of the sports in which Sullivan excels. Recently he was honored as a member of the all-time football greats. Page 158 Southeastern is in the habit of producing Championship basketball teams. And the 1950 51 team was no exception. Although the Savages did not win the Conference flag , there was little doubt in the minds of the people who saw them play and played against them, that they were among the lops in the Okla- homa Collegiate Conference. The Savages lost only three Conference games two of which were freakish losses, the other due to the misinterpretation ol the rules of basketball by one of the men wearing the striped shirts, When the List hall went through the hoop however, there was a smile on Coach Sullivan's face so we all know he was well pleased with the performance ol his team in their final game, and considered the season a very successful one. 1 ri the entire season the Savages won 1 3 lost 10 which is a very good average. It would be hard to pitk the most exciting game due to the fact that the com pc- titon was keen all the way and there were numerous close and very exciting games. The Savages were the only team in the Conference to defeat the Halliburton Ccmentcrs (an A. A. Is. team). The Savages defeated them by some 21 points at home and the Cememers won the game at Duncan in an overtime. Also only team in Conference to defeat the East Central Tigers, You could hardly pick the most outstanding player on this team because at one time or another they all shared in the glory. The Savages arc looking forward to another great season next year, providing the Draft boards don't become too active. Players, left io right: lluh VVoolbrighl, Don Parham.
