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
