YALE OK

Jim Thorpe, the "World's Greatest Athlete" lived with his wife and family in Yale OK from 1917 to 1923. His home is open for tour. The inside looks much as it did when the Thorpes lived there and has a lot of Jim's memorabilia.

Also pictured is Homer Ray Gymnasium, home of the Oklahoma 1999 2A State Basketball Champs, coached by David Page, currently coach at Pawnee OK.
