Cameron Dethroned As Loop Football Champion
Cameron college football forfeits five Oklahoma Junior Collegiate Conference wins after commissioner L B Bruner ruled ineligible player Leonard L Logan, who had played for Cameron and Arkansas City JC. Logan’s two-year limit violates league rules, dethroning Cameron which had won 19 games last season. With Cameron out, the 1947 title ties between Connors Aggies and Northeastern A&M, both with four victories and two losses. Connors leads on percentage after beating Northeastern.
