The number of apjwintive members was increased to nine by the first state legis- lature and then in 1911 the government of the institution was vested in the newly created State Board of Education, consisting of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and six members appointed by the Governor. In 1919 the Legislature passed a bill again vesting the government of the university in a separate Board of Regents, consisting of seven members, including at least two alumni of the university. The Legislature of 1927 modified the law creating the Board of Regents by providing that members can be removed only by impeachment proceedings and by requiring that at least three members be alumni of the university. The members of the board at the present time are: Joseph Claude Ix)Oney Wewoka William Casper Kite Oklahoma City Alexander Allan McDonald Hugo John Rogers Tulsa John Carlock Ardniore Mrs. Addie Lee Lowther Guthrie Frank Buttram .

' X ' m i i I Tlie President ' s Message With the publication of this volume of the Sooner another chapter in the history of the University of Oiclahoma comes to a close. The achievements of another year have become a part of the permanent records of the institution. The contents of this volume reflect much of the life and activities of the students of the University. College life today comprehends a multitude of activities. The routine of academic work constitutes only a part of the busy life of the student. Many activities, including athletic events, memorable social occasions and unusual exjjeriences that never occur elsewhere but in college, fill the student ' s days with interesting events and crowd his mind with memories that will enrich his experience throughout life. The Sooner epitomizes these activities and experiences. As the p assing years tend to dim the memories of these cherished events the students of Soonerland today will turn back to the pages of this year book and refresh their memories with the incidents that brought happiness in other days. To the students of 1927-1928 I extend hearty greetings and acknowledge my deep sense of love and appreciation for the cooperation you have given me during my second year as president of the University. I have come to share your loyalty and apprecia- tion for the University because of the friendliness and fine spirit of the students en- rolled in the institution. May future years bring to each of you the full realization of your aspirations and may ) ' our life be enriched with happy memories as a result of the years spent in the University. Faithfully yours, W. B. BiZZELL. i § y . T .a. f .iii f jii f j4j. .y 8fayaiwBe jj. jii f ju f iu i Page 23 ,e 1C X9t(PX9tOX9K A .., ITfESOONER. ' I92S ' . J. J. J. J.

Buchanan Vice-President of University There is one man on the University of Oklahoma campus who not only has helped to build Sooner traditions, but has himself become a tradition of the university. J. S. Buchanan, who is known to Soonerland as Uncle Buck, has served the univer- sity faithfully and well since the first days of its organization. His official position at the present time is Vice-president of the university. In addition to his duties as an administrator. Uncle Buck manages to arrange his schedule so that he may teach his favorite history courses. An A. B. degree wouldn ' t mean very much to a Sooner stud ent, if it did not represent at least one course under Uncle Buck. He has a charming way of addressing Oklahoma audiences, and for this reason has spoken on many noteworthy occasions to the student body. His good influence has been valuable to the Sooner eds and co-eds. He has helped mold the tradition and spirit of a progressive institution. It will be the priceless heritage of those Aho are to follow to preserve and protect the many worthwhile things Uncle Buck has brought to the Soonerland campus. f c f cW. f m f cUo f m f cj y «« T « G f J if olL Ji JU  Jlif i i Page 28 ' J.

In the main it consists of two parts: first the admission of students to the university; and second, the preparation of university catalogs. More than one-half of the students entering the university for the first time come direct from high schools. If the high school is accredited, the admission of its graduates is largely a matter of routine. It is a task of some importance, however, to secure offi- cial statements of graduation for nearly two thousand freshmen who enter during the year, including the summer session. First impressions are always lasting, and it is the special aim of this office to give new students a favorable impression of the university and its work. Dean Roy C. Git- tinger is handling the duties of this office as an efficient administrator. f W ML T cJiG r5 8T5l8W)8 WSW8«WaB a?T5BT5BT5B I I I i i i i i Page 29 22| J || jy g y| 72 0 E j-j7 2 |j2 2J J 2fi I i I I i i i College of Arts and Sciences Dean Reaves Under the direction of Dean S. W. Reaves the College of Arts and Sciences has become not only the largest college in the entire university, but also the foundation on which the professional schools base their courses. Recognizing the value of the cultural advantages that this school affords, practically the whole body of the profes- sional schools require as conditions for entrance two or more years of work in this school. Each year the scope of the work that this school touches is enlarged ; each year new courses are added so that the student may have the best possible opportunity to discover in what field his special talent lies. In the work of this school thoroughness is required, and exactitude made a virtue so that the student will not be found lacking in the necessary foundational work that is of such prime importance if success is to be attained. The college is divided into various schools, the most recent of which is the School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. Among the remaining schools of this college are numbered the following, Geology, Home Economics, Journalism, Physical Education, and Social Service. As soon as the student has had sufficient work to make an efficient choice, he decides whether he will select a major subject in the College of Arts and Sciences or enter one of the schools of the college.

A£K I I I I The School of Law Dean Monnett In response to the general demand that the university should provide facilities for legal training, the Law School was organized in the fall of 1909. Its aim is to inculcate a sound knowledge of the common law and equity, of English and American modifications, of constitutional law, and federal procedure, and particularly the prac- tice of law in the State of Oklahoma. In addition to the regular courses ofifered, a series of lectures are delivered every year by members of the Supreme Court. The Law School was the first school on the campus to be established in one of the new buildings. Dr. Julian Monnett is the present dean of the School of Law. This school is a member of the Association of American Law Schools. f ilt,  .Hi, f Jit f J4i VJJtf iJtfJUf iU. !

' A9K1 i The College of Engineering 1 s o ' tiVr irf¥ ' I- Deav Felgar The first work in engineering was given in 1904, when Professor Charles Majors was in charge. Professor C. M. Jansky came to the college in 1905. He was the first head of the School of Applied Science. At that time classes were started in Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering. In 1909 J. H. Felgar was elected Dean of the School of Applied Science and it became the College of Engineering. Up to this time the university had only one faculty supervising the work in all the departments. In 1909 the university was organized into separate schools and colleges with separate faculties, each taking care of its own curriculum, and other regulations pertaining to the individual school. Starting with only three departments, the College of Engineering has grown until it includes the schools of Architectural Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil En- gineering, Electrical t nginee ring. Engineering Physics, Geological Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mining Engineering, and Petroleum Engineering.

The College of Fine Arts Dean Holmberg The College of Fine Arts first offered work in 1899 as the School of Music and was reorganized in 1903 as the School of Fine Arts. After having been a director in this school for six years, Dean Fredrik Holmberg was appointed to his present posi- tion in 1909. This school was again reorganized under his direction in 1924 and as it is presently constituted offers work in three schools, namely, Dramatic Art, Music, and Painting and Design. In each of these schools a four year course is offered lead- ing to the degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts. This college has become esf)ecially popular in as much as certain courses are offered that stress the cultural side of fine arts, rather than the applied and profession- al. This work is allowed to serve as elective work towards degrees in the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Education, or the College of Fine Arts. Another specialty of this school is the work in education courses that is especially designed to prepare the student for teaching.

In 1917 a reorganization took place and the name was changed to the School of Public and Private Business. The curriculum of this school was enlarged and in June 1923 the Board of Regents voted to establish a School of Business and the conferring of the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business to those students who completed a major in the School of Business consisting of two years work, and two years in the Col- lege of Arts and Science. Dr. A. B. Adams has been Dean of the School of Business since its organization and has done much to further its efficiency and progress. In accordance with the trend of modern affairs the School of Business has become one of the most important in the University and has done much to attract students to this University.  iio .liJ= iJ = JlifiiJ.

It was organized in 1893, and since that time has grown to be an integral part of the university. A comprehensive group of subjects are offered pertaining to specialization in any branch of the profession. The faculty of the school includes the president, professors, assistant professors, instructors, and assistants in the departments of bacteriology, botany, chemistry, commercial pharmacy and physiology. Other members of the faculty are the heads of the departments of English, mathematics, Latin, modern languages and physics. It is also the custom to invite members of the State Board of Pharmacy to give special lectures to the classes. D. B. R. Johnson is Dean of the school and has served faithfully in that capacity for nine years. f i .f Uif JBTaS 98 IS WSBfV5« 8CT?BT?BTa?nB I Page 35 9« 19K..L9t0i.9iej.-A....

I I The Graduate School Dean Dodge With the impetus and added facih ' ties that will be afforded with the completion of the new library and administration group, it is expected that the high standing of this school will be further advanced and that its enrollment will be materially increased. Although work in graduate instruction was offered as early as 1899, the Graduate School was first organized separately in 1909. Dean Homer L. Dodge was made dean of this school in 1926, his previous experience as a professor in the university having shown him to be eminently fitted for that position. This school affords the opportunity for advanced work and higher research in many departments and gradually as more facilities are allowed the scoi)e of this school is being enlarged. A feature of this school is that while any graduate of the university or other university of approved standing is admitted to the graduate school, the student is not admitted to candidacy for the higher degree until he has demonstrated his ability to do the work of graduate character that the school requires.

' .r, L ' m I I I iity sion Dean Vogt University extension is an attempt to utilize more fully a modern university. The benefits of its vast accumulation of knowledge, its libraries, its faculties should be made more accessible to every citizen of the state who needs them. The description of the departments of Extension Work now undertaken at the University of Oklahoma will give some idea of its possible service. It is possible for it to aid in every home and school, in every effort for human existence and progress in the state. It is restricted only by lack of means. An appropriation for extension work is not a gift to the university but to the people of the state for aid and service which they could not otherwise obtain ; and the scope and quality of the service is restricted only by the means of giving it. In 1926 Dr. Paul L. Vogt was installed as dean of the University Extension Division and since that date has been in this position. ciJi:,  iiJ,  iJ T J J. f AJJ. .U!,  J. ; f JU f f Jl T y jU. f JiU i § . l A9«.i.91f.i ' X... -nlBSOmER-lOJf ...J 1.

The time spent in his office during the day has not been enough to carry on the numerous posi- tions that he fills. Many nights of hard work have been necessary to fulfill work that he does as Dean, professor of history, chairman of the student activities com- mittee, and member of various other committees. Dean Wardell is the sponsor of the Indian club, an organization whose member- ship is that of Indians on the campus. He is interested in Indian affairs and has written several articles on Indian history. During the present year he has made a concerted effort, with good results, to raise the scholarship standard of fraternities. He has been instrumental in the promo- tion of Phi Eta Sigma, freshman honorary scholastic fraternity, of which he is sponsor. fc f cUi.f mf cUif atCaT atb W3 9 3lgT SM. f JH f MWM f iU ' i i § I Page 38 9tox9tG 9te 9ie ... THE SOONER ZJkSISA i I Dean of Women Dean McDaniel AS Dean of Women, Miss Edna McDaniel has filled the position which has brought her close to the women of the university. In the two years in which Miss McDaniel has been in Norman, she has been an ardent booster of the University of Oklahoma. Miss McDaniel is a leader in the American Association of University Women, this year having been made chairman of the committee, which passes on the entrance of colleges and universities to the association. The dean is assisted in the detail work of the office by Miss Mae Vandever. In the office of the dean, located in the Women ' s building card files are kept, with information concerning each girl enrolled in the university, and it is through this office that the individual problems are handled. It was through Miss ] lcDaniel that the plan of an annual walkout was established, and is staged each fall for the benefit of the girls not yet familiar with the campus and its activities. f i  Jfcf JItf ilPTa BVJJ(. Jl 4U. JU¥illf JU. Jlt Page 39 a l i.-« A K... 77mSOO, R I- ir ,., CX  ?.L .. 11t? % i I I Dean Long In 1900 the firet and second years of the School of Medicine were established in Norman and in 1910 the third and fourth years were established in Oklahoma City. The University operates in connection with the school of Medicine in Okla- homa City a public clinic and hospital.

THE SOONER ■-fJ92S_ ' f 4?riArTiA 5tQ i I The Prairie Schooner When I see a prairie schooner With the tongue a-pointiiig west What a mighty nameless longing Always swells and fills my breast. For it ' s headed toward a country I shall always love the best, Toward a land of stars and sunshine, Toward the prairies of the West. It ' s a wide and wondrous region. Naught its virgin beauty mars Where the plain is strewn with blossoms As the sky is strewn with stars. Where the air so keen and bracing Gives to life a joy and zest, Makes the pulses leap and tingle, In the blood there runs the West. And I know within the schooner, ' Neath its cover worn and brown. There are hearts with hope a-tingle. There is faith that will not down. Though a man may meet misfortune. Failure never is confessed. When he mounts a prairie schooner With the tongue a-pointing West. So when from the ties that bind me I at last shall break away. Leave each sordid task behind me, As I surely shall some day. When I choose a craft for cruising. Love or fortune as my quest. It will be a prairie schooner With the tongue a-pointing West. -Edward Everett Dale f iJ(,f.iJi.f jjtf jJi,fAJi. m J. Jii.

THE SOONER ' 192 .X X0f 9t 9te iJ) University of Oklahoma Magazine Over one hundred students this year have won recognition for their brain children through the University of Oklahoma Magazine, the quarterly publication which serves as a medium of expression for students who wish to learn to write. That the Magazine is partly successful in encouraging young writers is shown by the fact that such people as Jack McClure, Lyim Riggs, and Muna Lee first saw their work in type in the pages of this Magazine. Violet and Mary Carmach McDougal, joint authors of a book of verse, who have sold poems to eastern publications, including the New York Times, formerly contributed to the Magazine. This team of sisters has a rival in Marie Mauk Christmas and Earl Christmas, a diiTerent kind of team, which resulted from a college romance. Their work has appeared in the Atlantic Monthly and other national magazines. More recent alumni writers are Foster Harris, Betty Kirk and Stella Rein- hardt. This year ' s staff is: Grace E. Ray, editor; Eugene Bewley, assistant editor; Olive Snyder, poetry editor; Hollis Russell, literary editor; Harold Keith, Virginia Nelson, Frank Dennis, Bernice Carey, Frances Sibel, Kathryn Douglas, Verna New- man, Stewart Harral, staff contributors; Lucie Jarbeau, art editor; Hal Lemon, Aileen Connelly, Olinka Hardy, Parker Shelby, Mary Elizabeth Cameron, Cedric Marks, staff artists; Miss Edith Mahier, art faculty adviser; B.

' KX ' f : ± ' IK 1 It I I I I i i Of all the specialty numbers with which the ni?n ' s glee club enlivened its program the most popu- lar was the men ' s quartette. A wide range of tones, and voices that blend extremely well, com- bined with a number of good selections to make this year ' s quartette one of the best. The original four were Clayton Kapp, Francis Bell, Bill Matney, and Jack Boone. The personnel was changed at about the middle of the first semester when illness took Matney from school, and at the end of the semester when Kapp graduated. The first vacancy was filled by Raymond Bass- mann, and the second by J. R. Clanin. Besides appearing with the club in its regular concerts the quartette has sung at pep assemblies, the Dad ' s Day banquet, and other affairs of similar natures. Another fine specialty was Louis Ronchetto, accordionist, who played an instrument which has been in the Ronchetto family for four generations. It is worthy of note that this is a piano accordion, an instrument which was designed in 1708. Other feature numbers were Bill Matney and Kenneth Cash, ukulele duet; Zane Mentzer, bari- tone; Jess Herrman, tenor; Walter French, pianist; Don Murray, violinist and dramatic reader.

A trip lasting a week was taken into the northern part of the state. Tulsa, Ponca City, Sapulpa and Bristow were some of the towns entertained. Jessie Griffith was president of the club, and Rose Richards, business manager. The direction of the Choral Club was taken over by Mrs. Minneletha White shortly after Christmas. The Choral Club assisted in the production of II Trovatore and Love Time. Some of the members assisted in the opera Aida, in Oklahoma City. , , , !

A ' ..- 7,Esoo ,eR l92f ,.. • a . 9 ; A-)t , I % Everybody in the University looked forward with a great deal of enthusiasm to every program on which the Girls ' Quartette was scheduled. Spicy songs and the clever way in which they were executed always supplied an entertaining program. The girls sang on many programs during the year, not only in Norman before many civic and social clubs and organizations but even went out into the State. Upon special invitation, the Quartette sang in Oklahoma City, Tulsa and Sapulpa, where they received high commendation and numerous invitations to return. All of the girls who sang on the Quartette this year are very active on the campus. They not only worked hard as a group, but sang many solos on different programs before the student organizations. The members are Laura Neal, first soprano; Ruth Starkey, second soprano; Catherine Witt, first alto; and Martha Over- lees, second alto. Martha Overlees will be remembered for the clever jazz songs she sang at the Homecoming pep meeting the night before the game when enthusiasm was generated for the Kansas fracas. This is the first year for Ruth Starkey in the university and we are all looking forward to hearing her sing again with the Quartette next year. The Girls ' Quartette was well represented in the operetta Love Time by Laura Neal and Catherine Witt who had leading parts. liJif JJI f .W,f iJi. JitfiJt J4!. A Jlt Jli .lH.

' K X- X ' I i I I I ' Stunt Nite The annual Stunt Nite program was presented before enthusiastic audiences, and has received favorable reviews by critics. The Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority was adjudged the winner of the silver trophy for the presentation of the best act of the program, repeating their triumph of 1926. Dave and Dave, featuring Tony ' s Rose Marie, by the Sigma Alpha Mu, was awarded second place and the judges especially commended David Milstein for his part in the skit. Other skits that drew more than usual applause were: Class Room in 1950, by the Kappa Alpha Theta; Foolishments, by Leonard Lily; Boneyard Shuffles, a blackface act, by the Beta Theta Pi; The Tumblers, by Jack Watson; Old and New Songs, by Mary Lucille Woodward, Maxine Keith and Walter French; Making an Eight O ' clock, by Nat Egnew and Ted Maloy; and Medicine Show, by Emmett Darby, John Scott, Winlock Morris, Gordon Fleetwood and Mary Ann Pitman. The College Ramblers presented the grand finale, which came up to the advance notices, and these were very extravagant. The Ramblers ' stunt was directed by Ralph Cook, who was assisted by Georgia Goss, Margaret Barry, Helen Wienecke, Virginia Bell and Genevia Colley. One unusual feature of the program was the fact that there was little criticism on the type of skits presented. The earnest work of Fred Humphrey, director of the spicy program, was an instrumental factor in making the performance successful. i f i I i Page 182 I I I ■J.W?J. ' VX ' K.,. 7«ES A I9Ji- ..,f X A9t ; 9tCl ' )t The Follies The third annual production of the Soonerland Folh ' es, this year named The Art Shoppe Revue, was one of the most entertaining student productions since the days of the Junior Burlesque. Curtis Smith, director, wrote the play and the lyrics which were sung in the revue. Clara Bowles, who took the leading role, was one of the best of the individual contributors. Her singing of To Love You was particularly liked. Folly Day, the theme song, and Lonesome Hours, another song feature, were ' ell received in the act. Five different sets of costumes were worn by the dancing chorus which was the main feature of the production. The girls who made up the chorus were chosen with an eye to pulchritude as well as for their excellent dancing. The Mystery Dance, in which the girls wore black costumes with masks, was one of the outstanding dances, while the pony chorus was most appealing to the audience. Ruth Swartz, the best blues singer the university has known in the past few years, brought down the house when she sang The Devil Man, written by Byron McFall. Julietta Seitz and Alice Mae Kistler had star roles in the production. Bill Fleetwood played un- usually well in taking the male lead. Jack Levering and Charlie Ritchie introduced the plot in a way entirely different from other performances and won the audience to each of the acts before it was shown. Rowe Cook as Isador Goldbrick, the inevitable Jewish character, was fascinating in his comic scene. He impersonated the pick of the tribe so well, in fact, that the audience really questioned that he had just played the part. Murray Gordon and Bob Woolsey were exceptionally good as the comedy team. They were two of a kind and a take-off at that. Among individual dances, Little Miss 1928 by Georgia Goss, Pleasure Mad by Ruth Little, and an esthetic dance by Alice Mae Kistler were the most outstanding. The whole audience sat willingly through the entire performance to which the Boomers were excellent accompanists. i i Page 183 9 i.9t(PX9tGX910ACX THE SOONER ' 192 8 ? i. .L .L9K.l ' ) % § i I ■tJUi T ,ii f T jjj. f iij, y f .w, f i. f jU f iU «y jfe f jjj. ii;, f ji T JiU f I fage 184 I 9« ' i9r?.i.?t ; 9iF.t ..- rog OAg ; yMy vf fe or?A9r?i.

Owen Director of Athletics After twenty-eight years of faithful service to Soonerland, Bennie Owen, director of athletics, is realizing the fruits of all his worthwhile efforts. Bennie visualized the new football stadium and the giant Field House in 1905 and has devoted the best years of his life in building Sooner teams that would justify such magnificent structures. Today, Bennie is all smiles. Today he realizes that his fiery pep speeches and untiring devotion to build up Sooner athletics have not been in vain. If four thousand active Oklahoma students were asked for a definition of Sooner Spirit, that same number would proudly answer, Bennie Owen. T iiL, y ,Uj. v jjj, f iiJ, y jjj.

Roy LeCrone, Sooner end, was admitted by all critics to be the outstanding wingman in the con- ference and made the first All- Valley eleven; A.

The 1927 race was run with a new coach at the throttle, Adrian C. Lindsey, formerly football coach at Bethany College, Bethany, Kansas, and a graduate of the University of Kansas. Lindsey suc- ceeded Ben G. Owen, who retired after twenty-one years of consecu- tive service, and did mighty well considering the fact that a light inexperienced line forced him to place all his dependence upon offense. With Pollok Wallace, Soonerland ' s All-Missouri Valley and third All-American center, gone, along with Herbert Martin, Bob Cooke, and Bob Sumter, the Sooner line was wrecked. And when Frank Potts, the 190-pound All-Missouri Valley halfback, and Dale Arbuckle, veteran quarterback, were lost, the 1927 Sooner backfield was weakened and lacked a single man who weighed as much as 178 pounds. But Coach Lindsey went to work with fine courage and con- cocted a series of short pass formations that got Oklahoma points in every game it played. The Sooners had but two weeks to get ready for Chicago, yet when the final gun cracked with 38,000 spectators sitting in the Maroon stadium, Oklahoma had won 13 to 7 by coming pluckily froin behind and scoring two touchdowns in the last half of the last quarter. With Chicago leading, 7 to 0, and six minutes of play left, the Sooners hurried a Maroon punt and got the ball on the Chicago 36-yard line. Then Mayhew dug out four yards on a plunge, Haskins passed to Churchill for seven yards and again to Churchill for fourteen yards. Another short throw, this one from Haskins to Mayhew who caught the ball on his fingertips as he raced across the Maroon goal, gave Oklahoma a touchdown. But on the try-for-point Haskins ' kick was hurried and the Maroon rooters were on their feet with a great shout when the ball sailed wide of the posts. Chicago still led by a point and the game was nearly over. But the Sooners were still fighting. With one minute of play left they secured possession of the ball on their 45-yard line and on the first play, Haskins tossed a short pass to Frank Crider, sophomore halfback, who ran 55 yards for a touchdown to send Oklahoma into a 13-7 lead and to stun the thou- sands in the stadium who thought Coach Alonzo A. Stagg ' s men had the game won. Haskins, the 140-pound Sooner halfback, did the hard work in this game. He did the punting, passing, kicking after goal, acted as safety and besides carried the ball more than any other Sooner back. Considering their weight and the number of enemy players they had to face, every man in the Okla- FOOTBALL SQUAD I I !Ji, f iii= w iu, f ik f Mi.

Muldrow was tackling fiercely and often, Kidd ' s passes from center were perfect, Captain Norris, Harry Berry, Bill Hamilton, Mart Brown, Roy LeCrone all fought savagely while Paul Ward ' s de- fensive play at fullback was a feature. After trouncing the Boomers, 27 to 7, in a game which found Ward gaining as he pleased from his position at fullback, the Soon- ers next met the Creighton Blue- jays at Owen Field and emerged with a 13-to-13 tie. When Oklahoma scored a touchdown in nine consecutive plays from kickofif, the crowd de- cided Creighton was easy. Two drives by Fullback LeCrone, a sparkling 10-yard cutback by Crider, a 20-yard pass flung from the hand of Mayhew to Roy LeCrone, and three pecks at the line by Mayhew put the ball on the Jay 1-yard marker where Ray LeCrone smashed across. Ward kicked goal. But there were no more long drives by the Oklahoma team. Creighton woke up, took the aggres- sive, unloosed two long advances down the field for touchdowns and were leading, 13 to 7, when Coach Lindsey sent in the crippled Haskins in the final quarter. Then Prentiss Mooney got off an amazing run. The Irishman returned the Bluejay kickoff 63 yards through the whole Creighton team and ran to the Jay 27-yard mark before he was pulled down from behind. That long dash saved Oklahoma. The fresh Haskins then went into action. He threw a 14-yard pass to Brown. And on the next play he flew around left end, dove between the Creighton fullback ' s legs and slid over for a touchdown after a pretty 10-yard HAMILTON AND CHURCHILL GO THROUGH f j)i f m f c!Jl f cUJ. f iiJ.

But his goal kick missed fire and Oklahoma had to be satisfied with a tie instead of a win. Perhaps Creighton ' s effective- ness in this contest could be ex- plained by the fact that Captain Norris and Hamilton, regular Sooner tacklers, were both badly injured in the first quarter, an em- barrassment that Coach Lindsey had trouble in overcoming with no other tackles available and three quarters of football yet to be played. The first conference clash was lost to the Kansas Aggies, 14 to 20. A blocked punt and a fumble gave the Wildcats two touchdowns on decidedly unorthodox football while they got the third one on a pass to Springer. Oklahoma earned both its touchdowns. Ray LeCrone ' s return of a Purple kickoff to the center of the field, Haskins ' dart of 15 yards around end, an 18-yard flip, Mayhew to Roy LeCrone, two drives by Ray LeCrone and a long pass on the last down from Haskins to Roy LeCrone brought the first. Then in the last three minutes of play the Sooners drove to the Wild- cat 5-yard mark where Glaucus Short ripped over on a plunge. Sam Clammar played well from his position at tackle in this game, once getting a Wildcat for a 12-yard loss at a crucial moment. In the mud at Owen Field on the following Saturday, the Soon- ers were tied by Central State Teachers ' College of Edmond, 14 to 14, although they made thirteen first downs to Central ' s three and gained 202 yards from scrimmage to the Bronchos ' 37. The Sooner attack was listless until the third quarter when Lindsey ' s men scored twice in 57 seconds, once on a plunge by Ray LeCrone and again on a wonderful 37-yard run by Haskins who skipped elusively here and I fil m A Hamilton, Capt.-elect MULDROW PASS TO CRIDER NETS TOUCHDOWN f .ife  .uj. f jjj. f jij. f .u;. m T j i . f f JU f jAi- f ju. f f jU.

However, the Central team was outfighting the Sooners and this, coupled ith clever use of the pass at crucial moments, gave them the tie. Summie Kidd was the big noise in the Sooner line while Tom Churchill played well at his new position of tackle. With Bill Hamilton return- ing to the line to play what many consider was the outstanding game of his career, Oklahoma whipped Washington 28 to 7, smothering the Green ' s feared aerial attack by the simple process of rushing the passer so fiercely that he seldom passed. A pass across the goal line, Haskins to Crider, brought the first Sooner score while the second and third ones came as the result of end-around plays with Mart Brown and Roy LeCrone carrying the ball. A 17-yard run by Jack Carmen brought the final touchdown. Churchill kicked all four goals. Churchill ' s and Berry ' s defensive play ranked next to that of Ham- ilton. Berry was breaking through often. With Crider out with an ankle injury. Coach Lindsey moved Churchill to halfback for the Kansas game and about 14,000 specta- tors on Homecoming day saw the big sophomore lead the Sooners to a glorious 26-to-7 victory, the first Oklahoma had won from Kansas since 1921. The Sooner line played marvelously. It piled the Jay- hawk drives hip-high, hurried the Kansas punts and passes and did a fine job of weeding out the Jayhawk tacklers when the Sooner backs were carrying the ball. Summaries show that Kansas failed to make a single first down from scrimmage in the first half and could gain but 34 yards from scrimmage. Kansas was thrown for 43 yards in losses.

I I Mayhew It was a great day for Captain Granville Norris who made nearly one-third of his team ' s tackles and could not be kept out of the Jayhawk backfield. The four Sooner touchdowns were made on four long sustained drives of 55, 32, 60, and 56 yards with Ray Freight Train Le- Crone and Churchill dividing the ball-carrying between them. Each of them averaged five yards each time he carried the ball. Le- Crone ' s defensive playing from his position of fullback was also marvelous. Then came the Oklahoma Ag- gie loss by a score of 7 to 13 with the Aggies bringing over two thou- sand spectators to see them do it. Eleven thousand persons saw the Aggies go into a 13-7 lead and then saw the Sooners work the ball to the Aggie 1-yard line in the last minute of play only to lose the ball on downs when they elected to pass instead of plunge on the final down. Oklahoma made 13 first downs to the Aggies ' 7, gained 151 yards from scrimmage to the Aggies ' 135, yet were defeated. A 22- yard pass from Mayhew to Roy LeCrone and a cut-back by Fullback Ray LeCrone brought the lone Sooner touchdown. It was made in the third quarter. Ab Wright, big Aggie halfback, was the out- standing man on the Aggie team although Patterson and Hendrick- son, Aggie tackles, caused Oklahoma much misery. Before 15,000 Missouri Homecoming day spectators at Columbia Thanksgiving Day in a game which Missouri had to win to clinch the Valley championship, the Sooners brought the short pass into play to march right down the field and score a touchdown in the first quarter, Tom Churchill racing around end for the score.

Some sparkling passes with Has- kins and Mooney doing the throw- ing and receiving, worried the Tigers considerably in the final period but they made their big lead stand up. Several hundred spectators made the trip with the team on a special train. Proof that the short pass as developed by Coach Lindsey was a formidable ground-gaining weapon is seen in the following figures : Oklahoma completed 11 of 24 for 143 yards. Chicago completed 7 of 20 for 87 yards. Oklahoma completed 5 of 24 for 65 yards. Boomers completed 4 of 12 for 23 yards. Oklahoma completed 4 of 12 for 71 yards.

THE COMING SEASON Football prospects are very bright for the 1928 season. Al- though Coach Lindsey will be without the services of such de- pendable men as Norris, LeCrone brothers, Muldrow, Kidd, and Brown, he will be able to develop men to fill the vacancies. The freshman squad, ready for varsity competition next fall, will supply a wealth of material for reserve players, whose combined strength for relief work will be unprecedented in Soon- er football history.

J.c 9f J I I THE BIG SIX CONFERENCE Soonerlaiid is looking forward anxiously to the opening of the Bix Six conference next fall. This circuit was formed by the six leading schools in the Missouri Valley conference for the purpose of keener competition among the leading teams. The new conference is composed of Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa State, Kansas State, and Oklahoma, who have stood in the foreground of the Missouri Valley athletic arena. Oklahoma is proud of her record in athletics, especially for her last few years of achievement in the athletic spotlight. We point, with pride, to the record of the past year. Oklahoma finished fourth in football, first in basketball, first in indoor track, first in cross-countr y, second in outdoor track, first in baseball, third in wrestling, first in tennis singles, and second in tennis doubles. With the nearly completed Field House and the work progressing on the new stadium, Okla- homa ' s improved facilities should enable her to hold her place of supremacy in the new conference.

X9fg.Lafl.L5K ADf; I i i i I Frightened but four times all season, the Sooner basketball team, Missouri Valley champion for 1928, dribbled and drove without de- feat through a strenuous 18-game schedule that proved much too long and much too hard for the other nine teams in the conference, no one of which lost fewer than five contests. Coached by Hugh V. McDermott, an alumnus of this university, the rangy Sooners employed a mixed-pass offense, based upon a quick break from defense to offense, and used a combination man-for-man and five-man defense to win the first conference hoop title ever an- — H m nexed by the University of Oklahoma. H The Sooners were easily the most powerful team in the league. SHIHBHB They were five games better than Missouri, the runner-up. They built a stack of 702 points in eighteen games to average 39 points per contest and set up a new all-time Missouri Valley scoring record. They permitted but 24.7 points to be averaged against them on de- fense, leading Washington, their nearest opponent, by an average of three points per game in this regard. Oklahoma possessed the conference ' s individual scoring king in Victor Holt, giant center, who scored 225 points, nearly half as much as the whole Grinnell team scored all season. It placed three men in the first ten individual scorers. It landed from two to four men on various all-conference teams selected about the loop and then did something greater yet than that. At Kansas City, the Cook Paint five, an independent basketball aggregation, was staggering. Three consecutive games had it lost. Injuries and staleness had apparently disrupted what should have been a fine team. Forest DeBernardt, acting as a delegate for the Cook management, made a flying trip to Norman to prevail upon McDermott to coach the wobbling Painters through the na- tional tournainent and also to bring with him his two All-Missouri Valley satellites. Holt and LeCrone, both of whom were graduating. Hugh McDermott Coach SBTaSTSSTaSTag BWICTlWSWSSf BTSPTSBTa? I i i i i Page 230 i ! I i 9 X« X91 91C X9.... TVESOOSER - 1928 ? i George Christmas Manager McDermott, Holt and LeCrone went. Fearlessly did they go. Against the strongest amateur basketball talent in the nation did they match their Sooner speed and skill and so wonderfully did they strengthen the Cook five, that it won the national championship in a romp. Holt was the high-ranking individual scorer of the tourna- ment and made the AU-American five at center. LeCrone was chosen at guard on the third All-American team. But back to the Missouri Valley season. Never before had a Missouri Valley basketball team won as many as eighteen games in a season. Never again will that happen, for withdrawal of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa State, Kansas State and Oklahoma from the Missouri Valley conference assures the Sooner team of not having to play more than ten conference basketball games in the season of 1929. When Harry Pinkerton, veteran guard and one of the finest players ever to slip on a knee-pad, was pronounced ineligible the day before the first game of the season, the December 17 contest with Drake, gloom on the campus was so thick that it couldn ' t have been cut with a pick-ax. Then followed a remarkable bit of moulding by McDermott. He took from his reserve squad, Granville Norris, tackle and captain on Oklahoma ' s football team, and proceeded to make a corking good basketball guard of him, just as he had with Roy LeCrone when the latter reported to him raw and inexperienced, two years before. Oklahoma won its first game of the year against the Drake Bulldogs, 42 to 24. McDermott ' s squad led from the start and was enjoying a 23-1 1 lead at half-time. And when Captain LeCrone and Norris permitted Grinnell but five field goals the following evening, Oklahoma winning 44 to 16, it at once became apparent that there were worlds of power in the Sooner five despite Harry Pinkerton ' s ■loss. Both these games were played in the Armory while workmen labored at top speed to get the new Oklahoma Field House ready in time for the big game with the Kansas Jayhawkers, Valley cham- pions for a half dozen consecutive seasons. Meanwhile a three-game road trip against Iowa State, Grinnell and Drake on consecutive evenings gave the Sooners a chance to show the world a few things about basketball offense. The giant Soon- ers drubbed Iowa State 51 to 32, walloped Grinnell 40 to 21 and then won a football game from the rough Drake Bulldogs, 38 to 24. By a clever exhibition of basketball deflection, Holt scored 25 points in the Ames game to estab- lish a Valley record for the season. A Sooner shot falling short, or rolling off the lip of the hoop.

Roy LeCrone K Holt ' s giant brown arm thrust suddenly BP upward, his hand caressed the ball, guid- Ea ing it through the meshes. The scoreboy BflK reached for a new number. HB Then came the first contest ever  played in the new Sooner Fieldhouse, the fcfc- game with Dr. Forest C. Phog Allen ' s Kansas Jayhawlcers. It was a game that Sooner fans had been waiting two years to see for Oklahoma did not meet Kansas in 1927. Oklahoma won a smashing 45 to 19 triumph. In the first half Bruce Drake stuck in six elegant shots from the corner. Long difficult throws they were but so ac- curate that the yellow ball was ripping through the basket without touching metal. LeCrone and Norris gave Kansas but two field goals the last half while Oklahoma tallied 19 points. Oklahoma led, 25 to 13, at the first half. The largest crowd to watch a basketball game in Oklahoma up to that time, jammed the Fieldhouse for the game. Spectators banked clear to the ceiling, looking like ants, waved their arms in perfect unison with the four cheer leaders, down on the playing floor far far below. More than 5,000 people, many of them alumni guests of Oklahoma ' s first basketball homecoming, were in the stands. It was a gala night with brightly-colored pennants and the blare of trombones giving it a holiday air. Next night the Kansas Aggies caught the Sooners on an off evening but Captain Roy LeCrone was hitting astonishingly well and the Sooner five won, 40 to 29. In scoring six field goals and a foul toss, LeCrone made 50 per cent of his shots, according to an unofficial check. He fed lob passes, bullet passes and bounce passes to start half the Sooner scoring plays and on the defense he was wonderful. Then came the Missouri invasion and the team ' s first scare. The Washington Bears had always been tough for Oklahoma. And in their own lair at St. Louis, with Drake limping gamely on a sprained ankle and Churchill ill from influenza, tied Oklahoma 1 1 to 1 1 at the end of the half while the Sooners played raggedly. It was the first time all year that Oklahoma had not been ahead at the end of the first half. But the Sooners, like the champions they were destined to become, fought coolly and relentlessly that second twenty minutes and after they had jumped into a slight lead, used their delayed offense to expand that lead to 28-20 when the final gun exploded. With his forwards incapacitated, McDermott was satisfied to win by a close score. Then came the crucial Missouri game. Up until mid- night, before they could take the train from St. Louis to Columbia, and partially exhausted by their hard game with Washington, the sleepy Sooners presented a marked con- trast to the energetic Tigers, who hadn ' t had a game for a week and had doubtless slept good in their own beds the night before. It was a long nasty wait. The hour was late and the men tired. And it was drizzling down rain. But through it all the squad had wonderful spirit. It sang (every man of the dozen McDermott carried on his trips had a fair voice) and it laughed. Basketball was the least-mentioned topic of conversation. When the men did board the pullman, they dropped into their berths and slept hard. I f i i i i § ragragT ' ssT Page 232 - - - ' — I i I THE SOONER ' I92IF , ? 2 ii£S I ! Churchill Holt The result of that Missouri game was a tremendous surprise. The Tigers had won five straight. They were in second place. They were rested. And they were playing what should have been a weary, crippled Sooner five, playing it in the crackerbox Missouri gymnasium at that. Yet Oklahoma won a smashing victory. Score 40 to 24. Moving quickly into a 20 to 9 lead before the startled Tigers knew what it was all about, the greatest offense the Missouri Valley ever saw averaged exactly a point per minute to overwhelm the men of Coach George Edwards. It was a night for Tom Churchill who darted through the Tiger defense for nine field goals, two more than the total compiled by the whole Tiger team. Churchill ' s ability to bank in long side shots with one hand while on a dead run, was the game ' s feature. Time and time again he hurtled through a rift in the Mizzou defense to score over the wildly- threshing arms of the Tiger guards. With the Washington game at Nomian, th e Oklahoma quintet began to develop the habit of pulling games out of the fire in the second half. At the half the Bears led, 12 to 9. But a savage Sooner attack in the last half tallied 25 points to Washington ' s .5 and when the surprised crowd added up the points, it found that McDermott ' s giants had doubled the score on the Bears, 34 to 17. Against Missouri the following night, the Sooners got scare number two. Nobody worried a great deal when the Tigers spurted into leads of 9 to 3 and 14 to 8 and when the Sooners tied the count at 16-16 at the half and then shot into a 29-22 lead in the second period, spectators turned to one another and said: I told jou so. Then the unexpected happened. Missouri sprinted. Its players began to hit goals from everywhere. With four minutes to go Oklahoma ' s lead had dwindled to 34-31, and the Fieldhouse was in an uproar. Securing possession of the ball, the Oklahoma players began to stall. For two minutes they did a beautiful job of playing keepaway, passing back to one another, dribbling deeply into Missouri territory, avoiding every Missouri effort to capture the ball. Then the terrible happened. George Flamank, burly Tiger forward, gained possession of the leather and sank it from midcourt with 50 seconds of play left. Okla- homa ahead by a lone point now! Now the fieldhouse was a madhouse. Everybody was roaring excitedly. Another lucky shot by a Missouri player and Oklahoma ' s great record would be spoiled. Oklahoma must keep possession of the ball ! The tip-off. Holt leaped up and tapped the ball to himself. Flamank grabbed him and they went to the floor like wrestlers. Two more tip-offs. Each time Holt batted to himself, and permitted the • ' . 0 ' Missouri players to grab him and tie up the ball. Now the Sooner fc center ' s tactics were plain. He had the boss stall of them all. He ■k I could tip to himself all night if that was necessary to keep Missouri mT from getting the ball. M Ten seconds before the gun Bill Noble leaped high and batted a m tip-off that Holt was restrained from catching, back to Captain Le- ■L Crone who coolly dribbled it back and forth under his goal until the Jl timer ' s pistol ended the game. What a sigh of relief arose from all H over the Fieldhouse after that! After trimming Iowa State 37 to 17, mainly because of Norris ' CULBERTSON «-VliJifiJt,fiii. ili iJifiJt JJi JI. Jli.

So fast a pace did the Aggies set that the first half found the Sooners trailing, 15 to 19 and with 13 minutes to go, they were behind 22 to 29, an even greater margin. Then they went to work. In the face of the most rabid insane natur- ally hostile cheering they encountered all year, they miraculously pulled into a 35-34 lead and when Ab Wright put the Aggies ahead by a point with the final seconds of play dying fast, the Sooners couragously prepared themselves for one more play from tip-off. Holt tipped to LeCrone who tore down the center of the court with three long dribbles. Then Drake sped goalward from a corner and LeCrone passed to him left-handed and although two Aggie guards were hot on his heels, Drake palmed the ball and spun it toward the basket as he was falling. It banked in cleanly and Oklahoma had won that game, 37 to 36. Then followed a trio of road frays. Kansas was whipped down at Lawrence, 3 0 to 21 and three days later the Kansas Aggies were defeated 40 to 27 at Manhattan and the championship clinched. Next night Nebraska rallied late in the game to draw within two points of the Sooners, who coasted in to win, 38 to 36. And yet the Huskers gave McDermott ' s five a scare. The final contest of the year was with the Huskers at Norman. A gigantic crowd was gathered to see Oklahoma ' s greatest team play its last game. The Sooners handled the Huskers easily, defeated then 43 to 29, used their substitutes part of the last half. Vic Holt was the game ' s hero. He cl inched his individual scoring championship with nine field goals and a foul shot. It was his last game and also the final one for Captain Roy LeCrone, Norris, Stevens and Ray LeCrone. Between halves the graduating members of the team were introduced to the crowd, the final basketball introduction of their careers. Norris, an unperturbed, tousle-headed warrior of the court, waved a good-natured hand at the crowd as it gave him an ovation as he walked off after his intro- duction. Lanky Holt, smiling widely and shyly as he sauntered out to be introduced, bounced a basketball and shook hands with Cheer Master George Non ' el to hide his abashment. A sheepish embarrassed sort of grin creased Captain Roy LeCrone ' s freckled face when he was presented to an audience that knew him well enough already, and when it gave him a thundering hand his grin widened and he walked awkwardly back to where his team mates were warming up under the south goal, his gait increasing in speed as he drew nearer their protection. Thus did these three great players walk out of intercollegiate basketball competition. Never again will they wear the Red and White of Soonerland into a cage contest. But that is as it should be. They were team mates on a quintet that won Oklahoma ' s first Missouri Valley championship. Not once in eighteen battles were they on the losing side. All of them have a fine reputa- tion for sportsmanship. Conditions couldn ' t have been more ideal for their leaving. TEAM OFFENSE QUINN G. PTS. AV. G. PTS. AV.

However, Coach Hugh V. McDermott will have six Icttermen back for a nucleus on which to build the 1929 team. Captain-elect Bruce Drake, Tom Churchill, regulars will again wear Sooner colors, while Bill Nobel, Mel Culbertson, Ben Keirgan, and Gregory Quinn, squad members, will also report at the beginning of next season to represent Oklahoma University in its first Big Six campaign. The 1929 season will mark the entrance of Oklahoma into the Big Six conference and a round robin schedule will be played which will consist of about ten games, thereby allowing the Sooners to play more games with other schools who are members of other conferences and to avoid the long strenuous season as played in the former Valley games. aA.- «SM«. .. .- ,, ■:-.... - wia - .• -•.-■.   SOONERS BEAT KANSAS f Jcf cU f JJo, PciiofcU PiJ fA ' e) eJ f jil f jit f ■ili. f JU. f AUU I i I t i Page 236 i 3 H i TI ACK ! 5 K 19 X9tOX910XCK. ttta 7 S 92 g t t f f i I i In winning the first and only Missouri Valley cross country, championship ever to come to Oklahoma, the 1927 Sooner harrier sextet placed five of the first six men to cross the finish line at the conference meet held at Manhattan, Kansas, late in November, which was attended by forty of the strongest long distance runners in the five states of Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. The Sooners, coached by John Jacobs, himself a Sooner graduate, established a record low score to win the conference title, tallying a remarkable total of only 2 points. The former low score record was 39 points, set in 1925 by the Kansas Aggie team, the champions th en. Another unusual feat performed by the Sooner tea m was the fact that in every one of the six meets in which it competed, five of the first six men to finish wore the Red and White of the University of Oklahoma. Not only was the team all-victorious, but it won each o ne of its meets by an overwhelming margin. That is fine tribute to the coaching genius of John Jacobs. Every man on the team was an Oklahoman and not one of them had ever had cross country training under any other coach but Jacobs. In the conference run, the first five Sooners to finish were all under Floyd Red Rutherford ' s university five-mile record of 26 minutes, 6.9 seconds. Keith ran t he distance in 24 minutes, 50 seconds for a new Uni- versity of Oklahoma record. Captain Niblack was 90 yards behind in the remarkable time of 25 minutes, 16 seconds. Heald and Dudley were 250 yards behind Niblack in 26 minutes flat, while Captain-elect Carson was a jump back of them with a mark of 26 minutes .4 second. Even Arthur Sherman, the team ' s No. 6 man, was so fired with Sooner spirit that he finished twelfth with a time of 26 minutes, 12 seconds. Henry Indian Schulte, veteran Nebraska coach and one of the outstanding track authorities of the nation, told Coach Jacobs as he congratulated him immediately after the race: Jake, you can beat any school in the world with that team! Both in team scoring and time did Oklahoma outclass Wisconsin, the Big Ten champion, Penn State, the Eastern Intercollegiate title-winner and South Carolina, winner of the Southern Intercollegiate conference crown. The following table bears this out: Team Score Distance Run 1. Oklahoma (Missouri Valley) 20 5 miles 2. Wisconsin (Western Conference) .... 51 4.8 miles 3. South Carolina (Southern Conference) . . 61 5 miles 4. Penn State (Eastern Conference) .... 73 6 miles The first race of the year was against the Oklahoma Aggies. The Sooner team ran without Niblack, its captain, who wasn ' t yet eligible. Although Faulkner, the Aggie ace, won second place in the meet and pushed Keith for first until the latter raced away from him down the stretch, he was the only visitor to finish in the first half dozen, Oklahoma winning, 19 to 36. The day was hot and windy and the time, 27 minutes, 42 seconds, was slow. Sherman, of Oklahoma, was third.

The race, a four-mile affair, was run at Emporia during the Emporia-Southwestern football game, in temperature exceeding 85 degrees. Captain Niblack, Keith, Carson, Dudley and Sherman broke the tape in a line. Time: 22 minutes, 52 seconds. Score: 15 to 40. Over a muddy course during the Central football game, Oklahoma defeated the Broncho harriers, 20 to 37. Dawson, of Central, came through with an upset by winning first place in 26 minutes, 53 seconds. However, Keith, Dudley, Captain Niblack, Carson and Sherman, all of Oklahoma, were strung out behind him in the next five positions. Then came the team ' s first severe test. A tri-meet with Iowa State, Missouri Valley cross country champions last year and also for ten out of the last thirteen years, and Missouri was booked. The race was started at 10 o ' clock on a Saturday morning at Columbia, Mo., before a strong north wind in zero weather over the bald slopes south of the University of Missouri campus and as Iowa State hadn ' t lost a dual or tri-meet for seven years while Oklahoma had been unbeaten in dual meets for two years, a great deal of interest was evident. However, Oklahoma won decisively, placing the first four men and also the sixth. Captain Niblack and Keith tore 38 seconds from the Missouri course record to establish a new mark of 27 minutes, 7.8 seconds for the five and one-quarter miles. Dudley was third, Heald fourth, Carson sixth and Sherman ninth. Spotting the Boomers a 440-yard handicap here Home-coming day, the Sooners defeated the Yearlings rather badly in an exhibition race. Captain Niblack and Keith tied for first place in 26 minutes, 14 seconds. Only the important Missouri Valley conference meet was now left on the Sooner schedule with the undefeated Kansas team and the powerful Nebraska crew expected to prove worthy foes. Oklahoma won that meet as it had never been won before. Bernard Poco Frazier, of Kansas, won first place but the entire Oklahoma team followed him across the line in second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth places to clinch the championship. Frazier was forced to establish a new world ' s intercollegiate record of 24 minutes, 44 seconds for five miles to defeat Keith, Sooner runner. The little Kansan ' s ability to sprint up the hills let him shake off Keith in the last half-mile and win by thirty yards, after Captain Niblack had set him a blistering pace for the first three and one-half miles and Keith dogged him closely for most of the remaining distance.

Oklahoma also made a strong showing in the Valley outdoor meet, winning second place to Kansas. Coach Jacobs ' powerful Sooner crew also swept its dual meet schedule clean, defeating Missouri, Wash- ington and the Oklahoma Aggies. Save for the loss to«Kansas in the outdoor meet, the Sooner team was undefeated. This made the 1927 track season by far the most successful in Oklahoma ' s history for never before had a Sooner team done better than third place in outdoor track or fifth position in indoor track. The indoor season was started off at Kansas City, in the annual K. C. A. C. games held on the wooden 147-yard track in Convention Hall. Here the team won an abundance of fourth places and got worlds of experience. Ray Dunson, sensational little Creek Indian hurdler was very much the reason for this triumph as he won both the 50-yard low and high hurdle events to bring his school ten points. Dunson tied the Valley indoor record for the lows by stepping them in 6 seconds flat. John Hewett, after tying the Val- ley indoor record for the 50-yard dash in the preliminaries at 5.4 seconds, was set back for a false start in the finals and had to take fourth place. Ben Taylor won third place in the gruelling 440-yard dash and fourth in the low hurdles, Sides third in the half-mile, Anderson tied for third in the high jump, Kieth took a second in the two-mile run and Niblack fourth. Stalker was second in the broad jump while the Sooner mile relay team, with Hewett opening an amazing 30-yard lead, ran like something wild to win second place and clinch the meet. In the first outdoor competition of the year, at the Texas and Rice relays at Austin and Houston in March, the team made a better showing than any other Valley school there. Morgan won a first in the javelin, Anderson a second in the high jump, Drake tied for second in the pole vault, the four-mile re- lay team composed of Carson, Sides, Kieth and Niblack placed second to Illinois and Dunson won the 120-yard high hurdles but was disqualified for flattening too many of them. Next afternoon at Houston, Anderson won second in the high jump. Stalker tied for second in the broad jump, Drake tied for third in the pole vault, Mullins won a fourth in the broad jump, Taylor a fourth in the low hurdles, Morgan a fourth in the javelin and the Sooner medley relay team com- posed of Sides, half-miler, Hewett, 440-yard dash, Dunson, 220-yard dash and Niblack, mile run, placed second to Iowa State. The first dual meet of the year was against Washington at Owen Field on a cold April day with the north wind blowing a gale. Oklahoma won, 96 to 35, but it was too windy for any new marks to be established in the races. One week later at the Drake relaj s Dunson was more fortunate. He won the high hurdles in 15 seconds flat for a new university record and not a hurdle did he knock over. The Sooner four-mile re- lay team also came through with a second, losing to the Oregon Aggies by only a foot. In the Valley outdoor meet at Lincoln, a slightly better conditioned Kansas team forced the Sooners to be content with a second place. Dunson won the high hurdles and Stalker the broad jump and Cap- tain-elect Ben Taylor was well on his way to a victory in the 220-yard low hurdles which he had won in 24 seconds flat the preceding year, when he stumbled and fell after he held a five-foot lead. Mullins won a second in the broad jump, Drake soared 12 feet 9 inches to get a second in the pole vault, Keith was again next to Frazier in the two-mile after an exciting sprint down the stretch. Captain Potts won a third in the vault, Bill Morgan a second in the javelin. In the national meet, Dunson won third in the high hurdles and Mullins fifth in the broad jump.

The winning of the 1927 championship made Coach Owen ' s retirement a happy one for it was the third consecutive baseball title won under his regime. During the six-year span that he has handled Sooner baseball teams, Oklahoma has won 62 games and lost but 26. Although he had a veteran outlay of material back for the 1927 season and did not have to build a completely new team from green material as he did the year before. Coach Owen found the winning of the 1927 bunting a difficult feat, mainly because he lost Jack Montgomery, big right-handed pitcher, in mid-season and also because the Kansas and Washington teams pursued him closely. In mid-season Oklahoma found itself in third place, behind the Kansas Aggies and Washington, and faced with a formidable road tour into Kansas with the Wildcats and Jayhawkers to be met in two games each. But Oklahoma has always played its best baseball on the road. Where Coach Bill Owen ' s 1925 team won all its games abroad and the 1926 aggregation clinched the title with a string of vic- tories away from Norman, his 1927 nine was no exception to this rule, trouncing the Kansas Aggies twice at Manhattan and dividing with Kansas when Coil lost a beautiful mound duel to Swenson, star Jayhawk southpaw, although he had bested the Jayhawk pitcher three weeks earlier at Norman by shutting Kansas out, 2 to 0, and giving them but two hits. Then came important clashes with Washington, which brought its undefeated nine to Norman for two games. The Bears were leading the Valley after whipping the Oklahoma Aggies twice and boasted a strong pitcher in the highly-touted Beckman. i i % % % TSST ei lSgTWP ' IS ' SSWt SesrSI SIST eT lgTS! Page 244 p 9.PX .L9K..Lt -X-.. niBSOCNER i I Capt.-elect Norris But Beckman could not stand before the wallopers of Coach Bill Owen. They slapped his offerings in all directions, drove him out of the box, beat him 15 to 1. Norris got four hits. Captain Jones three and Haswell and Shunatona two each. Meanwhile Fay Coil held the visitors hitless for six innings and then eased up. The second game was close and exciting and went eleven innings. Lee Hunter, the sophomore right-hander, opposed Eichler, of Wash- ington, and the last half of the eleventh inning found the two teams deadlocked, 3 to 3, with Joe Mayes, Sooner catcher, at bat and twi- light covering the field. Then Mayes thumped a long home run to left field to give Oklahoma a 4-to-3 victory, throw the Sooners into first place, and send several hundred spectators home happy. Although all these games had their bearing on the winning of the flag, the decisive contest was the last of the season against Wash- ington at St. Louis. After Bat Shunatona, Oklahoma ' s Indian shortstop, had let two Washington runs tie the score in the last of the ninth on an error, he atoned for it beautifully in the first half of the twelfth by singling Gene West home from second with what was the winning run. West had reached the bag by singling and traveled on to second on an error. Shunatona ' s hit was his fourth of the afternoon. Coil ' s pitching was superb in this game. The Bears made but one earned run off the chunky Drumright boy who fanned eight of them and gave but six hits in the whole twelve innings. Coil ' s fast ball was hopping with such fiendish speed that the umpire frequently stopped play to examine it and see if it was doctored. Lee Hunter enjoyed a splendid year as a pitcher, losing but one game in seven. Lee was cool and heady and borfc down hard in the pinches. His only loss was at the hands of the Oklahoma Aggies at Stillwater, to 7, and his support in that contest was very feeble. Oklahoma had what was probably the best infield in the Valley. Walton at third, Shunatona at short and West at second were veterans. And as Coach Owen had Joe Mayes, probably the best catcher that ever donned a body pad in the Missouri Valley, he shifted Buddie Haswell, also a back- stop, to first base where Haswell played well all year, fielding .974 and making but four errors in 150 chances. Granville Norris, captain-elect this year, was the team ' s batting king. Norris, who is a big 180- pounder and bats left-handed, clouted the orange for the amazing average of .446 to lead the Mis- souri Valley in hitting. The big Laverne boy maced out 29 blows, 19 of them singles, five doubles, T AK f ■w. f m f jij. f m .ife T J. amjtj. ¥ JU. f j«. f .ii;  cm, f jiuy i i fage 245 2 g2 lffii £Ji i h™[S22i ™i22 rftfi SiA2Siii2 I i Walton Coil four triples and one a home run. This mark is perhaps the highest ever compiled in seventeen games of college baseball by a Sooner player. Gene West, the 1926 batting champion, hit .372 that year, while Joe Mayes, the 1925 leader, batted around .355. Captain Dick Jones ranked second in hitting to Norris and with Dale Arbuckle, Bob Stephens, and Pollok Wallace rounded out the outfield, Arbuc kle, Stephens, and Wallace alternating. Norris not only bagged more hits than any other Sooner but also led the club in t vo-baggers with five and extra base hits with ten. With Bat Shunatona he enjoys the distinction of having struck out less times than any other regular on the team, each of them having whiffed on but four occasions. Buddie Haswell, the made-over first-baseman, led the club in runs with 20, in three-baggers with five and in bases on balls with 23. Gene West and Joe Mayes were tied for home run honors with «a.y.g!ii;ifc.-i BORKETT Wallace West TSSTWTVS SS SSWSSWmWSI Sf SISTSPTSIgW I i i i I i I? i cJKa T cbV6 Page 246 I jgjg2gJ 2gJ| J J fy - 7Jffi 0 j« - a2 I I i § Haswei.l Hunter two apiece while Mayes was the team ' s leading base thief with six. Shunatona ' s four sacrifices made him highest in that regard. The team as a whole batted .275 and fielded .942. Twenty-one double plays were turned in by the Sooners in their 1 7-game schedule, thought to be a record for Valley baseball and certainly a new Sooner mark for one season. While the Sooner players themselves were stealing 24 bases, Joe Mayes, Sooner catcher, jjermitted but two enemy players to steal on him all year, picking off more than a dozen. Mayes is now the property of the Tulsa Western League club while Gene West has signed with the St. Louis Car- dinals.

He is being succeeded by Lawrence Jap Haskell, who gathered the flies in centerfield for the Sooners in the early ' 20 ' s. Many new faces are to be seen in the Oklahoma lineup of 1928. Such hitters as Shunatona, West, Jones, and Mayes are surely to be missed, although the bats of Norris, Coil, Hunter, Haswell, and Walton are not to be slighted. Polly Wallace and Dale Arbuckle, outfielders, also graduate this year. The infield is due for a big shake-up. Walto i, third-baseman, and Haswell, first sacker, are the two returning infielders, but the latter will probably replace Mayes behind the bat. Norris will be the only experienced man in the outfield, as Stephens will be shifted to the inner garden. The pitch- ing staff will remain the same, practically, with the probable addition of Red Walker, freshman ace of 1927. With such a great change in the personnel of t ' le team, the strength of the 1928 Sooner nine re- mains yet to be seen, and it is hard to make any preJictions on the outcome of Oklahoma ' s race for the last Missouri Valley pennant. i f Page 248 i i M1NOK POI 1 i. 23g i,2j j 3Si 2i Ai S™2 S2 tfifiiSA3i fiiAffiiii2S i TeBnii Oklahoma has had strong tennis squads for many years. The Sooner netsters have made enviable records in Missouri Valley cir- cles and always place strong bids for championship honors. In 1927 Dick Mason captained the net team. Fred Royer, Paul Hodge, and Duane Landon were the other squad members. Mason and Royer paired to win the Alissouri Valley doubles championship. In the Fall of 1927 Mason again captained the team with Thurman, Hodge and Brown as teammates. The Sooners invaded Texas to defeat S. M. U. of Dallas, 4-2, and Rice of Houston, 6-0. The Oklahomans lost to the University of Texas 5-1 in the last match of the fall season. This Spring the Sooners have conquered the Oklahoma Aggies, Rice, S. M. U., Nebraska, and Grinnell. They are undefeated at the time the book goes to press. Mason, Thurman, Rankle and Brown promise to bring home valley honors in the conference meet.

' ± ' ,K1 I Wrestlins Wrestling is rapidly coming to the front on the Sooner athletic program, due largely to the efforts of Paul Keen, new wrestling coach. The Sooner grapplers engaged in eight dual mat encounters during the season, besides the Missouri Valley tournament and the national tournament. Of the dual contests, Oklahoma won si. and lost two, and fought to third place in the conference tourney. Leach, 115 pounder, wriggled to second place in the Missouri Valley classic, and repeated his performance in the National Inter- collegiate meet. He will enter the Olympic trials in July. Lawrence Mantooth, Sooner entry in the 125 pound class, also placed second in the Missouri Valley meet. The squad will lose Captain Wallace Red Fullerton and Bill Inglis by graduation this spring.

These residences provide a fraternal atmosphere and enjoyable communal life for girls not affiliating with the Greek letter sororities. Membership is regulated only by the con- veniences and available room, the religious association not entailing any religious affiliation or membership with the respective churches. Excepting initiation these Halls are in most respect similar to the sororities. Each has a house-mother, and elects offi- cers who supervise the conduct, policies, and organization of the house. Questions per- tinent to their social life, and matters of internal regulation are all decided and acted upon by the members. Mrs. E. F. Graham is the house-mother at Agnes Moore Hall, Ruth Malcom, the president, Eula Thompson, vice-president, and Jewel Shaw, secertary and treas- urer. The Catholic Sisters of Divine Providence are the superiors at Newman Hall, Katherine Fallom the president, Lucille Wallenstein, vice-president, and Marion Warren, secretary and treasurer. At King Hall Mrs. C. D. Thompson is house- mother, Etta Roberts, president, and Louise Frisby, reporter. ?3?T c5«dTc5 5 c G ▼ t 0 f i.

Pick and Hammer Club In the year of 1910, a group of faculty members of the Department of Geology of the Univer- sity of Oklahoma, while making a trip through the Arbuckle Mountains, decided to bind themselves into a more intimate relationship by forming a club. Thus was the beginning of one of the oldest or- ganizations of this university. The name of the club was taken from an organization composed of men of the United States Bureau of Mines, and the United States Geological survey, then existing in Washington, D. C. As the time passed swiftly onward, the University of Oklahoma kept pace and its organizations followed in line. The members of Pick and Hammer club aroused the attention of others in pursuit of learning and in the year of 1922 the club was allowed admittance into the American Institute of Min- ing and Metallurgical engineers, as one of the societies. During the last few years the club officers have endeavored to make the regular meetings enter- taining as well as educational and in so doing speakers of geological fame have been secured and educational pictures shown. The results have appeared in the increased membership, the club now numbering more than three hundred members. Page 313 f jJi f f .i]j, f .uj, y m  .ti g ' wtfBie¥ag j4i f ji f ji;. f jU.

The organization has a purpose that is two fold ; Its first object is to keep alive the feeling of racial consciousness among the original Americans; the second is to perpetuate the colorful legends and historical matter relating to the various tribes. The club has many of the most outstanding students on the campus in its membership. Indeed, there are few activities, either curricular or athletic, that the club members are not actively engaged in. Sooner athletic teams have gained much out-of-state interest because of their red-skinned athletes, who have added much color to the teams. In a few short years since Oklahoma became a state, the Indians of the state have made remarkable progress. The descendants of the Wig Warn dwellers who are now University students are symbols of that progress. The halls of our law-making bodies, the mills of industry and the cultural life of our state, are all indebted to able leaders who are of Indian descent.

As King Solomon said when he crossed the Delaware, Sic Belgae omnes hie, Postum Regnum alumni, which being translated into our own language, means, A cat may look at a king — and laugh. FOREWORD This section was compiled to combat that social menace called ego. Some define the term as that anaesthetic which is used to deaden the pain of being a fool. It is to be found from the lowly freshman to the lofty graduate ; from the cradle to the grave. As the pen is mightier than the sword and mud is cheaper than bouquets, we take this opportunity to prove the old saying, The evil that men do lives after them. We have attempted to toe the mark. We have attempted to give credit where credit is due, and if you have been slighted by being omitted, it all reverts back to ego after all and you have no gripe coming. So, for your own enlightenment, amusement, chagrin, or what have you, we present this section. Oh, would to God the gift he gave us, To see ourselves as others see us. iJafcJtf JJi=f iJi JlifiJtfiJi A iU.f4AfiU.f Jlif Jltf JlifiU i i i Page 244 i ! i ► ! i i .

Montgomery Jimmie Blanton Sam Fryer Bob Berry Gordon Fleetwood Bill Swan Eddie Neville MEETING OF OUR LOCAL INTELLIGENTSIA Loughney enters Copper Kettle, staggering under heavy load of dictionaries, fol- lowed by Witt loaded to the gun-wale with gin bottles. Heflin brings up the rear, recitmg as he goes some of his own poetry, regardless of the pain inflicted on those unfortunate enough to be within ear-shot. They are joined eventually by Popejoy, Youngblood, Pryor, and Mayfield, their ardent feminine admirers accumulate in due time, and the intellectual orgy is on. Now let ' s philosophize, gurgles Mayfield. Just a moment while we pass the dictionaries, interrupts Witt. The idea of vocitating in the common parlance of the proletariat is repulsive to my finer instincts. The dictionaries are munched with well simulated relish. Loughney, however, gags a bit, the diet being new to him. The others, hardened addicts, devour their portions in a trice, murmuring withal, People will be so impressed when they hear us talk. You ' ll have to learn to like it, Loughney, if you aspire to be a member of our scintillating group, says Heflin, frowning upon the amateur. Loughney heroically chokes down the section from A to L, seizes a crime by Ben Hecht and buries his nose in its covers. What ' s this all about? Quit holding it upside down, answers Pryor crushingly. Witt discourses on various erotic topics at great length in loud and resonant tones, adding sotto voce, Look around, Marty, and see if people are noticing us as they should. Motion is made and carried to strike the name of Sinky Lewis from the club records for the horrible crime of marrying, and further aggravating the insult and injury by washing the family dishes. Meeting breaks up as a keeper from the Nut House arrives with a net. Members depart cum expeditio through convenient windows. y jc f cU f i jG f jio f rn f c f A f c f cO v t  G T 0 G T cJ 6 cJ G T c) 6 I I i i i i I I Page 346 i i. i.ic.i.9ieA-x..„ rHBsoor ER-iojs ■..;Ci.9f ?j. x9r; i i Pi Upsilon Rho Eta Flower: White Lily.

I I I I Haul of Shame Heflin and Heflin — Poets, philosophers, musicians, dramaticians, movie directors, movie actors, playwrites, men about the campus, general nuisances, pack animals, and other things. Bob Howell — Ardent suitor, revolutionist extraordinary, double crosser, political propagandist, and conqueror of Meacham. Paul Williams — Largely responsible for the success of this book. We hope that the Sooner of 1929 will be blessed with his absence as was this one. Phil Kidd — Anti-anything, bullshevik, revolution leader, reform advocate, envied by all men students because of his sex appeal and super ability with the co-eds. Hal Johnson — Mussolini H, grower of famous mustaches, and savior of student rights. Presents collegiate appearance but only for effect. Hal Houston — Devilish married man who gives the young girls lots of fatherly advice. Biggest flirt, and in own opinion is the most popular man that ever came to school. Can always be seen or heard — usually both. Bernice Carey — King of dance halls, record holder in four lap event of Student Council hall, anchor man on hardwood relay team composed of Rex Hart, Bus Rheams, Dave Milstein, and Carey. 0 !

Consoled himself with a Kappa pledge And deafened every ear; With loud sung praises of her worth And vows of love sincere. A Beta pin the D. G. donned, And Tepid loudly swore That the damsel did it just for spite, And he strutted all the more. He called her up from time to time To tell her of his bliss; And to beware of Betas bold, Whose aims might be amiss. And the Highly Tepid Anderson Unblushingly admits That none resist his fatal charms, And that he gives ' em fits. ■ff% ReftL This T ' c t ;v.l - oC f WMLf ▼ J J T c fe T-cWW PAfJllfc fc f cilif CJK} T CJ G T O b I i i i I Page 359 i.

Secretary smokes Lucky Strikes to keep his voice from failing while calling the roll. Every week a Hell Week is cry of imbeciles already rooked into the order. Chapter is politically affiliated with the Barb Party due to fact that they can hardly be distinguished from each other. Prominent members are Jack Boone, who gained notoriety by his wonderful bass voice (?) and ladder climbing ability, and the Dodson Twins. The American Legion and this pseudo-fraternity decided last year to have a membership race. At present the Kappa Sigs are in the lead. For any further information about the boys call Dis- ciplinary Committee.

I % I I I iJ ij cJ- a ' The work is finished. At the business desk I see John Pearson, who has worked night and day for the past week to get the book out on schedule. Ray Bannister and Koburn Kidd are at their posts, smiling but tired. They have pitched good ball in the final moments of play and are to be commended for their fine spirit in finishing an apparently hopeless task. For the last few days the office has missed the jovial personality of the Sooner Editor, Henry Mugler, who at this moment is in a critical condition in the American Legion hospital. When news reached the office that Henry was hovering between life and death, for a moment the staff members were bewildered — then came the reaction, and each dependable member gave his very best to complete the work on the 1928 annual. I hesitate to mention any names for fear that some willing cohort will be slighted, but Caroline Tissington, Harry Kniseley, Bob Bleuer, Margaret Barry, Ed Patterson, Marjorie Norris, and Ed Watts have worked diligently for the cause. The annual has been published against unfavorable odds. Financially the book was not supported until an energetic campaign launched by the Business Manager sold enough Sooners to justify its publication. Editorially, the book will sufifer because the real skipper was not at the helm at press time. If any copy seems to have been rail- roaded, it was the only means of salvation. The work of R. C. Walker, engraver, is appreciated by the staff. He gave much time and effort in solving the many con- fronting problems. George E.
