After each promise the President made, the natives responded with ooba! ooba! when showing his prise buUs, toe leader cautioned the president not to step in the ooba ooba. and Raska and their covered wagon caused more favorable comment at Dallas last January than the many expensive floats and bevies of pretty girls.

Steen is doing a great deal for the state by using its tax dollars to send the two oxen to Miami. Only If It's One-Way Another letter writer says he will contribute to the fund to send Mel Steen to Miami to clean up after the oxen only if the ticket is one-way.

to your article concerning Mr. Steen and the oxen in a recent issue of the Star: writes R. L. Miller of Tecumseh. suggestion for a collection to send Mr.

Steen to Miami would be especially welcome were it to be one-way transportation. his proclivities as a spreader are much more pronounced than as a one-way suggestion is a great idea and it would be twice as cheap. Any money left over could be used to help sponsor the beautiful float designed for Nebraska. It should also be pointed out that there is no connection between the money being raised for toe float and the money being used to send the oxen. Apparently the oxen fund consists of tax money while the float fund must rely on contributions.

Interest In Ames When Oklahoma State and Oklahoma meet Saturday at Norman, some of the persons most interested in the outcome will be sitting in dormitories at Ames, Iowa. The contest has little meaning except for the participants and for coach Clay Iowa State team. An Oklahoma State win would drop Oklahoma into fifth place and put the Cyclones in the first division. It also would give Oklahoma State a tie for sixth place with Kansas. Figuring that will happen, call it: Oklahoma State 10, Oklahoma 7.

Nobis, the Texas star who played on both offense and defense, received 187 votes followed by Rassas with 160. Nobis was one of many players who received votes for both the offensive and defensive teams. In each case, all of a votes were credited to him at the position for which he drew the most support.

Thanks to Arkansas, the Southwest was represented by eight players on the 44-man squad, placing next to the Midwest on a geographical basis. The Midlands and South had seven representatives each and the Far West and the East three apiece. Only the Rockies of the seven geographical sections of the country was not represented in the all-star selections.

Since the Bear setback by the Colts on a disputed touchdown pass catch by Ray Berry, Sayers has been back in high gear. Rookie of the Year bid was improved by his performance last Sunday as the Bears trimmed the Giants, 35-14, in New York.

He scored touchdowns on runs of 45 and 15 yards, threw a touchdown pass that was recalled because of Bear holding, and piled up 113 yards on 13 carries, almost doubling the entire Giants yardage.
