What is the mark that looks like a slur but with straight lines, not curved

In "Curtain Call" by John Wasson, the oboe part (and others) includes an articulation mark that I'm not familiar with. It looks like a slur, but the up and down are straight lines, instead of curved.
Could somebody explain to me what I'm supposed to be doing here? I've been playing it as a bit of a bend, but I'm not convinced that's correct.

This is called the shake! It adds a short grace figure to the transition to the second note like this:
Always start the shake figure by holding the first note slightly.
For a descending shake you then go up a step, back down to the first note, then to the second note. Notice in your example the second note of each shake has a teepee articulation, so honor that.
On brass the shake is done with the lip.
