Description

  • Content Description: Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "When C. D. Hendricks learned the storm was headed toward his barrack's home at the University north campus, he gathered his wife and two children to find a safer place. But it was too late. They had time to only lie down near the bed before the walls collapsed around them. Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks managed to protect the two young children with their bodies. Luckily all escaped injury. Hendricks grabbed a piggy bank containing $30 just before the apartment was hit. Here Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks survey the wreckage with Riley Wilson."
