The first school conducted in Sayre was in a little frame building situated on the grounds that formerly was the homestead of J.M. Danner. It was started in 1901, with Professor Herschel Joseph as superintendent who was assisted by his sister, Miss Mary Joseph.

A search warrant has been issued for a 19-year-old Sayre man after being charged with consuming intoxicants in public, malicious injury to property less than $2,500, disturbing the peace by loud or unusual noise or abusive, violent, obscene, profane or threatening language, and resisting an executive officer.

The pursuit continued as an Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper joined and took the lead position in the pursuit.
