wished Lt Dick McCool, '41ba, and his wife, the former Elaine Larecy, '426a, at a recognition dinner held June 24 in the Union Ballroom Lieutenant McCool, son of RM McCool, democratic candidate for governor, left Norman with Mrs McCool the following day for San Diego, where he assumed command of an LCS It was on an LCS that Lieutenant McCool, by his calm presence of mind, saved his ship that she might fight the enemy again The ship was hit off Okinawa in June, 1945, by a Japanese suicide plane carrying a 500-pound bomb which exploded when it struck Lieutenant McCool's ship Though injured by flying fragments and receiving burns from rescuing an injured man below deck, he continued giving orders and encouragement to his men For this, he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor by President Truman in December, 1945 Serving as master of ceremonies, Ted Beaird called upon judge Justin Hinshaw, Norman, to lead the group through two choruses of "America" and "There's A Long, Long Trail A Winding" The Rev S D Crouch, Norman, delivered the benediction Vocal selections were by Joseph Benton, professor of music, and Miss Wilda Griffin, associate professor of music They were accompanied by Lytle Powell, professor of piano In an after dinner speech, M L Wardell, chair- man of the department of history, paid tribute to RM McCool, as a man who saw the growth and development of Oklahoma He also praised young McCool for his splendid part in World War II "In order to preserve an everlasting peace," Wardell said, "the older folks must co-operate and participate with the younger generation " Peacetime Plan for NROTC Calls for Regional Selection The Navy's Holloway plan for peacetime education of Naval officers provides for selection of NROTC trainees by regional boards, Comdr W M Rakow, executive officer, University NROTC- V-12 Unit, said The boards will consist of Naval officers, leading educators and outstanding citizens Other conditions a student entering the NROTC program would be required to satisfy are the following : (1) Qualify in a Navy-administered nationwide examination (2) Satisfy all the entrance requirements of the NROTC institution of his choice (3) Be accepted as a regular student by that institution (4) Agree to engage in certain additional training (cruises, etc ) during summer months, and to remain on active duty from 15 months to 3 years after graduation While in the NROTC program, officer trainees will receive a retainer pay of $600 per year Other incidentals such as tuition fees and books will be assumed by the government However, this does not include government provision of food and lodging facilities NROTC candidates must complete a minimum of 24 hours of naval science courses in addition to training during summer cruises Uniforms will be furnished by the Navy and will be worn only for drills Only when engaged in activities connected with naval science courses will military discipline or control be exercised Graduates who have served two years satisfactorily on active duty and who agree to transfer to inactive status in the Naval Reserve will be given a lump sum payment of $500 For three years' active duty, $1,000 will be offered When the peacetime NROTC program is in full draft, 50 per cent of the officers in the regular Navy will comprise men commissioned at NROTC colleges Boards in the Navy Department will be convened to select officers who desire retention in the regular services 75 Navy Men Take Active Duty Seventy-five of 98 Naval ROTC and V-12 students receiving commissions June 22 at the University of Oklahoma have accepted active duty for a year Comdr William M Rakow, executive officer, said the percentage choosing active duty was the highest for any unit in the Eighth Naval District which includes Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma The June class completed the navy's wartime program at the University The regular peacetime NROTC program will be reinstated in September OU Professors Listed Two University of Oklahoma faculty members, Dr Alma J Neill, professor of physiology, and Joseph H Benton, professor of voice, are listed in the 1946 edition of "World Notables, the International Blue Book," recently published in New York Eleven other Oklahomans are included in the book New Photography Text Adopted Rules for the beginner in photography are given in "The ABC of News Photography," by Truman Pouncey, University photography teacher Pouncey completed the revision of the book this year and it has been lithoprinted and adopted as a text for a University photography class Before joining the faculty, Pouncey was a photographer for the Dallas Morning News Linguistic Panorama Colorful Keynote of the Linguistic Panorama held in the Union Ballroom on June 27, was an informative type of entertainment Presented by the Summer Institute Of Linguistics, the program was under the direction of Dr Kenneth L Pike and presented under the auspices of the University Department of Modern Languages Participating in the Panorama program were 20 linguists, all members of the Summer Institute A wide assortment of Central American costumes, cooking utensils, hand-made musical instruments and jewelry, was exhibited in the ballroom by the Department of Anthropology in conjunction with the Panorama Most unusual number on the program was the Baouli witch doctor's wierd dance of terror Dressed in a leopard skin partially covered with straw, the witch doctor, portrayed by Walter Arnold, held the audience of 600 spellbound He wore a large wooden headdress, which had the eyes of an elephant, horns of a buffalo, earns of a hippopotamus, the mouth and teeth of a crocodile and fins similar to that of a chamelon In Africa, natives were sometimes frightened to death upon seeing him Panorama spectators, however, merely gasped Native dialects from the Central American areas were analyzed, songs were rendered, legends were told and literal translations were explained Milton Warkenton illustrated pronunciation of vocal clusters in the Huave dialect As many as four vowels appear consecutively in that tongue The Mazateco whistle talk was given by Eunice Pike Used exclusively by the men in certain areas of Central America the language is not unlike the American "wolf" whistle Velma Pickett and Marjorie McMillan sang a Zapoteco love song Quite different from Tin Pan Alley fare, the lyrics say, "Why do you love another if you don't know if he can feed you? I can give you cows, corn, squash, etc If you do not wait for me I will die" Ethel Wallis told how missionaries affiliated with the Institute of Linguistics teach the aboriginals how to read Rather than go through the tedious process of teaching disinterested natives to read Spanish, the missionaries go into unexploited territories, learn the languages from the natives, reduce the language to an alphabet and teach the natives to read their own tongue To do this, they use charts with pictures and symbols such as in the primary grades of American schools Added stimuli are games which are educational as well as great fun to the natives The missionaries then translate the Bible into the natives' language and thus are able to spread the teachings of Christ An unrehearsed analysis of the Eskimo language was demonstrated by two students of the Institute and Roy Ahmaogak, an Eskimo from Point Barrow, Alaska, who is attending classes at the Institute Dr ED Meacham, dean of the School of Arts and Sciences assisted in the analysis when called upon by Dr Pike to do so Summer Enrolment Over 4,000 It's heyday time for the fairer sex at the Universityl Not every day in every gal's life can she have almost a three to one chance of catching her future hubby With the male enrolment tallying at 3,059, coeds can definitely afford to be particular about letting the best man win since only 1,065 women are enrolled Skyrocketing above any previous summer term figures, the total enrolment sets the all-time high with 4,124 Veterans account for more than half the entire enrolment with 59 women veterans enrolled and 2,481 male veterans taking summer courses 2 SOONER MAGAZINE

5 Kelly Featured in Satevepost For Part in Bikini Bomb Test Featured in a full-length 2-column picture in the lead article of Saturday Evening Post's June 22 issue, was Lt Col Thomas C Kelly, '35-'39, who was awarded a BS in engineering physics at the University last May Coolnel Kelly is one of four "beep" pilots mentioned in the Post article, "Phantom Fortresses vs the Atom Bomb," by Brig Gen Roger M Ramey, as among "the best in the business " The term "beep" pilot is derived from the beeplike signals which are emitted from highpowered, radio-transmitting control-stick boxes which operate the pilotless B-17's by remote control As chief of the controlled airplane section at Wright Field, Ohio, Colonel Kelly is in charge of the air instrumentation and test requirements unit of Crossroads Air Task Group 1 5 Before leaving for Bikini, he trained crews in New Mexico to fly the radio controlled planes From a mother plane several miles away, Colonel Kelly operated by radio control one of the B-17's which flew into the radioactive cloud created by the explosion of the atomic bomb ' As a fighter squadron commander from September, 1944, to May, 1945, Colonel Kelly flew 51 combat missions over Italy He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and five aid medals After leaving the University, Colonel Kelly entered pilot training and was a rated pilot by 1940 By the end of 1941, he had completed training at an aircraft observer's school and a radio controlled aircraft school The following year, he was rated as an instructor and operations officer after additional training with radio controlled aircraft During 1943, Colonel Kelly was engaged in the development, test and service application of radio controlled planes and missiles His last job was that of chief of radio controlled target section headquarters, Army Air Forces, Washington, D C After training in a service test jet school and a fighter gunnery school, in 1944, Colonel Kelly was sent overseas for replacement training as a P-38 pilot Upon his return in 1945, he received instruction at a radar bombing school from which he was given a radar bombardier navigator rating His wife, with their two children, Merrilea and Thomas Clyde III, are now living in San Antonio, Texas Scientist Says Only Hope Lies In World Control Only through international control of atomic power can the world be saved from the threat of destruction, Dr Lyle Borst, research scientist of the Oak Ridge, Tenn, atomic plant, warned Oklahomans at the ninth annual University of Oklahoma Institute of International Relations Borst declared that international co-operation is 'perative because the United States cannot maintain an enduring monopoly and because there is no defense against atomic weapons The nuclear physicist branded as false reports that atomic bombs might be detonated by rays from the target He pointed out that defense against carriers must be 100 per cent and that the most effective defense against the V-1 German bomb was never more than 90 per cent He said the V-2 rockets were never stopped The U S developed a weapon which is uniquely adapted for use against this country, Borst said, explaining that in no other country is society so highly integrated The Acheson report proposes the broad terms for international control, Borst said Atomic control would be divided between safe and dangerous phases A proposed atomic development authority would have absolute control of uranium deposits and the operation of atomic bomb plants The authority would have the power to enter any country and make surveys and inspections The "safe" materials would be de-natured for use in medical and scientific problems These denatured materials would be licensed JuLY,1945 Borst said the forthcoming United Nations Atomic Commission meeting might well determine the course of the future The United States must assume the lead Borst believed the next war would be on its way if the United States and Russia did not enter the conferences with co-operation and goodwill The Original Commissioner By ED EDMONSON, '406a O U Sooner of the District Thirty-one years of public service received recognition recently when President Truman sent to the Senate for confirmation his nomination of Paul A Walker, '121aw, for a third term as member of the Federal Communications Commission Few Truman appointments have met with such immediate approval in the nation's capital, and senatorial confirmation was regarded as certain Commissioner Walker's third term, which will continue him in office until July 1, 1953, represents signal recognition of the Oklahoma lawyer's achievements in the field of public utility regulation Mr Walker is not only the lone survivor of the original FCC, but also the only commissioner to receive a third term appointment In the light of this distinction Oklahoma's former Corporation Commission chairman is being hailed in Washington as "communication's Eastman"- the FCC's counterpart to the Interstate Commerce Commission's famous Joseph Eastman Brightest feather in Mr Walkers cap during his 12 years with FCC has been achievement through negotiation of long distance telephone rate reductions which represent annual savings to telephone users of more than 150 million dollars The commissioner is just as proud, however, of his record with Oklahoma's Corporation Commission, which he joined as counsel in 1915 and continued to serve, with only a two year interruption, until he left the chairmanship to accept the Washington position from President Roosevelt in 1934 News of his renomination came while Mr Walker was at lunch, with more than six weeks still to he served in his current term The commissioner, who had taken no steps to obtain reappointment, strolled into his office to find his staff swamped with telegrams and telephone calls of congratulations Friends had learned of the president's recommendation to Congress before word reached Mr Walker The Shawnee attorney and utilities expert was mentioned prominently in Oklahoma as a gubernatorial prospect this spring, but decided against making the race Be Seein' You Soon!

7 CHICAGO TRIBUNE PHOTO BY ANDREW PAVLIN students playing follow the leader in the sunken Garden located between the Administration Building and the Library Youth On the Campus By ELEANOR NANGLE, Chicago Tribune staff The following article appeared in the May 26 issue of the Chicago Sunday Tribune The above picture and those on the next two pages were loaned to the sooner Magazine by the Chicago Tribune Something of the exciting marching spirit of Oklahoma, which has probably made more material progress in the last half century than any other area of comparable size in the country, pervades its great state university at Norman Physically this grassy, tree-clothed campus, dotted with fine buildings in the most imposing version of collegiate Gothic architecture, constitutes a show place Academically the University of Oklahoma ranks with the pest ; it is generally conceded, for example, that its school of petroleum engineering is the finest in the world, that its school of geology is outstanding, and that in all its divisions advancement to high rank since its opening in 1892 has peen phenomenal Norman lies in old Indian Territory, first opened to white settlement in the historic "run" of 1889 The population of what is now Norman rose from zero on the dawn of opening day to 500 by nightfall ; Those who jumped the gun, in defiance of the law, were the "Sooners" Through the years, however, "sooner" as a word has lost its original connotation and now is pridefully applied to themselves by all Oklahomans as meaning one who is more enterprising than his fellow men and one who hurdles all obstacles with the greatest of east Oklahoma's university-consisting primarily of a preparatory department, since there were, naturally enough, no high schools in the territory-opened in 1892, just three years after the run The good that David Ross Boyd, first president of the university did does indeed live after him, expressed not only by his influence as an educator put by an interesting heritage of physical beauty to the Norman campus and to the town, originally almost completely treeless Boyd, a tree enthusiast, planted thousands of saplings, in defiance of the popular belief that no trees would grow here, and even established a nursery of his own on the university grounds Today Norman and the 217 acre campus are notable in this state for their abundance of fine trees of many varieties and effectively beautiful plantings of flowers and shrubs The University's Medical School and its school of nursing are in Oklahoma City, 18 miles north All other divisions-the College of Arts and Sciences, consisting of nine schools ; the College of Business Administration ; the College of Education ; the College of Engineering, composed of 11 schools ; the College of Fine Arts, consisting of four schools ; the School of Law, the School of Pharmacy, and Graduate College, are in Norman When the spring term closed (early this year, because the University is about to resume its pre-war two-semester schedule) there were 5,400 students on the campus, some 2,600 of them men released from military service Next fall enrollment will be even larger The Sooner campus is roughly divided into two ovals and one quadrangle, with handsome gateways standing in pairs at the four principal entrances The oldest oval, the north one, is dominated at its head by the Administration Building, a truly magnificent structure of red prick with much elaborate Gothic detail in light concrete and stone To the rear of this, separated by a charming formal garden, is the library, easily the most perfect of all the beautiful buildings on the campus Already enormous, this building will be further enlarged in the near future to connect with the old Ad Hall The majority of the classroom buildings, loosely linked by broad walks, are on this oval Newer buildings are on the South Oval, which is the University's welcome room for expansion The quadrangle just to the east of the older oval is given over to the Press Building, home Of 211 Sooner publications and the University Press, and the Engineering Buildings Oil, of course, is Oklahoma's staff of life ; here the oil well, rhythmically pumping on city streets and in vast fields, is as common a sight as a street, lamppost is to a Chicagoan Students in the university's renowned School of Petroleum Engineering supplement their work on the campus with field work in the fabulously rich oil centers that are practically within sight of the University Adjacent to the Engineering Buildings on the campus there is a wealth of equipment-an oil refinery, a towering derrick, a miniature oil well, drilling apparatus, and laboratories of various kinds On this campus, where an easy western friendliness prevails, all roads lead to the Student Union on the east side of the North Oval All day there are students on the paths that lead to and from its doors, and at 3 :10 each afternoon there is a surge to its grill by practically every one on the campus It's an old Sooner custom at that time if the day is sunny-and most days are sunny here-to grab coke and ice cream and repair at once to the lawn, which quickly becomes a perfect sea of students This is the center of all informal student activity and is as widely used a union as we have ever seen at a state university Norman's group of sorority and fraternity houses is astonishing Nowhere in the country have we seen handsomer houses than those owned here by the 12 sororities and 19 fraternities They extend for blocks and are so beautiful it is as though architects vied with one another for superb effects Students of Indian blood-and there are many on this campus-are banded together in one of the most distinguished campus organizations, the Sequoyah Club, the officers of which are all fullbloods Sequoyah initiation annually is one of the most colorful events of the student year, centered about a tepee erected on campus and dramatized by the beating of tomtoms for a whole night In every respect the University of Oklahoma is a place of surprise and fascination for the visitor who might share the popular misconception about this state which was the last American frontier The beauty of the campus, the grandeur of the buildings, the rank of the University, and the cosmopolitan flavor of the entire scene are eye-openers JULY,
