The men who exercise final administrative control over all matters concerning the University of Okla- homa are the members of the Board of Regents. These are the men who hire presidents, fix salaries and in general see that the University is properly run. These are the men who in 1947 have received bids and let contracts for one of the largest building pro- grams in the history of O. U. These are the men who decided that students could take an unscheduled holiday only if the foot- ball or basketball team won a Big Six or national crown. The Board of Regents was established in 1890, and until December of 1907 consisted of the Gov- ernor, ex officio, and five members appointed by him. In 1907, however, the first State Legislature acted and increased the number of members to nine. That arrangement lasted until 1911 when control of the University was placed in the hands of the State Board of Education. In 1919, the Legislature reversed its stand and re- turned University government to the Board of Re- gents. At that time, membership was cut to seven, and all were appointed by the Governor. lt wasn't until Iuly 11, 19414, by constitutional amendment, that the Board of Regents became a con- stitutional organization. Today, there is a seven-man Board, appointed by the Governor and approved by the State Senate. The term of one Regent expires each year, ln addition to the University proper, the Board of Regents is the controlling organization for the Uni- versity of Oklahoma Geological Survey in Norman, the University School of Medicine, the University School of Nursing and the University and Crippled Childrens Hospitals in Oklahoma City. Officers of the Board for the year 1947-48 are Lloyd Noble, President: Erl Deacon, ViceHPresident, and Emil R. Kraettli, Secretary. First Row, left to right: T. R. Benedum, Norman: Lloyd Noble, Ardmore, Erl Deacon, Tulsa, Don Emery, Bartlesville. Second Row: Ioe McBride, Anadarkog Ned Shepler, Lawton: Dr. Oscar White, Oklahoma City.

llflllllllll CUIHHIIS ADMINISTRATION FACULTY CLASSES MEDICS AT PLAY POT POURRI MEDICS RELAX MEDICS AT WORK ACHIEVEMENTS FRATERNITIES In an effort to honor where honor is due, it seems a justifiable deed to dedicate the following volume to the young physician. To dedicate is to honor, and to honor by inscription is to bring to the fore, that which is worthy of praise. The young man entering the practice of medicine is seldom recognized universally for his merit until a point has been reached in the later years of his life, when encouragement is no longer the factor that it once was. The young physician of our nation today serves in a capacity seldom filled by men of other professions. He is the light of new progress. and the promise of future service, a foundation upon which a better medical world is being built. He has nobly chosen to sacrifice self upon the altar of service, and to do that which is within his power to minister unto the sick, whose trust becomes his charge. He has chosen to ac- cept responsibilities, great for any man, and to pursue to completion every task of his profession which is set before him. To those within his sphere of influence, he must attempt to be an inspiration and in no way violate the strict code of ethics and moral obligations set before him by the wise physicians who have gone before him. He cannot demand, nor expect, the devotion afforded the older physi- cian, but he is constantly striving to attain those attributes of tolerance, owledge, pride, loyalty, courtesy, bravery and reverence, with older physician commands respect. Envisaged with a great future, t ready to accept bitter disappointments equally with suc- cesses, plies his task diligently from day to day. Thus is, to these men of medicine, who are earnestly striving to apply th principles and to uphold the ideals of their profession, that we fondly dicate this volume. PUBLICATIONS
