Narrative:
The problem began on flight as I started the #1 engine. The oil filter bypass light started to flicker. I shut down the #1 engine and returned to the gate. Contract maintenance replaced the filter which was followed by good results of an engine run-up. The aircraft was then ferried to pit. There was no indication of any problem until I was in the approach phase of the flight. I was level at 10000 ft indicating 250 KTS and over the cutta intersection when the oil filter bypass light for engine #1 came on and stayed on. When I contacted pit approach, I advised that air carrier flight number was in the process of shutting down one of the engines and declaring an emergency. With time and vectoring the oil filter bypass non normal and engine shutdown checklists were accomplished followed by a single engine landing on runway 28R. The emergency equipment was canceled upon clearing the runway. I then taxied the aircraft to the assigned gate.

Title: A B737-200 FERRY FLT EXPERIENCES A FILTER BY PASS LIGHT ON THE #1 ENG. AN INFLT ENG SHUTDOWN IS PERFORMED. THE ACFT WAS ON A FERRY BECAUSE OF A PERVIOUS FILTER WARNING THAT HAD BEEN 'FIXED.'
Narrative: THE PROB BEGAN ON FLT AS I STARTED THE #1 ENG. THE OIL FILTER BYPASS LIGHT STARTED TO FLICKER. I SHUT DOWN THE #1 ENG AND RETURNED TO THE GATE. CONTRACT MAINT REPLACED THE FILTER WHICH WAS FOLLOWED BY GOOD RESULTS OF AN ENG RUN-UP. THE ACFT WAS THEN FERRIED TO PIT. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF ANY PROB UNTIL I WAS IN THE APCH PHASE OF THE FLT. I WAS LEVEL AT 10000 FT INDICATING 250 KTS AND OVER THE CUTTA INTXN WHEN THE OIL FILTER BYPASS LIGHT FOR ENG #1 CAME ON AND STAYED ON. WHEN I CONTACTED PIT APCH, I ADVISED THAT ACR FLT NUMBER WAS IN THE PROCESS OF SHUTTING DOWN ONE OF THE ENGS AND DECLARING AN EMER. WITH TIME AND VECTORING THE OIL FILTER BYPASS NON NORMAL AND ENG SHUTDOWN CHKLISTS WERE ACCOMPLISHED FOLLOWED BY A SINGLE ENG LNDG ON RWY 28R. THE EMER EQUIP WAS CANCELED UPON CLRING THE RWY.
