UCO


The Oklahoma Highway Patrol reports From 6 p.m. Friday to midnight Monday — 78 hours — the OHP worked no fatal accidents. Just four years ago, 18 people died in vehicle accidents during the Memorial Day holiday weekend in Oklahoma.

While the highway patrol did not work any fatal vehicle accidents over the Memorial Day holiday, at least four Oklahomans lost their lives on city streets, lakes and out-of-state highways.

Joe Muller, a former associate athletic director at Oklahoma State, will be introduced this morning as the athletic director at the University of Central Oklahoma.

Earle H. Hagen, who co-wrote the jazz classic "Harlem Nocturne" and composed memorable themes for "The Andy Griffith Show," "I Spy," "The Mod Squad" and other TV shows, has died. He was 88.

Today in OKC: Mostly cloudy. Highs in the lower 80s. Easterly winds about 10 mph. Thirty percent chance of thunderstorms in the morning, before turning partly cloudy in the afternoon.


Today, Kyle, Tanner and I drove up to UCO. A prelim to next week’s big Edlam launch. Always good to have the pre-meet to confirm what should happen.

The guys and I then went into the bleachers to shoot an intro for the upcoming site. UCO Bronchos (note the ‘h’) football players were slaving away, pacing themselves through a mid-afternoon practice. Once we had our shot, we packed gear and headed south.

To a crime scene. This is for an upcoming Cold Case package. Coming to an Oklahoman (Sunday edition) near you. Or your favorite Web site. We shot next to a electric power substation in the 90 degree heat. Gotta love wearing a sports coat. And make up for that matter.

Just kidding.

About the sports coat.
