By ED LIVERMORE
A growing amount o(interest
surrounds the congressional
race in our new Creek-Tulsa
county district.
Although the primary election
throughout the district — and
Oklahoma — failed to draw even
a normal vote, perhaps now
that the conventions are out of
the way we can get back to
things closer to home base.
Two men are pitted in the
Sept. 17 runoff for the demo-
cratic nomination for the con-
gressional post. They are Pat
Malloy, who carries a slim lead
into the runoff, and John Jar-
boe, his up-from-nowhere chal-
lenger who surprised plenty of
old heads with his primary show-
ing.
We have occasion to visit at
some length with both men.
As a result, we plan to vote
for Jarboe.
Malloy was a young turk dur-
ing the Edmondson era but time
has moved him into the realm
of an old-head among area poli-
ticians. Malloy has a credit-
able record, was state manager
for the late Sen. Robert Kennedy,
and is a successful lawyer.
On the other hand Jarboe is
young, enthusiastic, and shows
great promise. He has a good
legal education, has just com-
pleted a hitch in the service,
and is embarking upon a po-
litical career. Of great impor-
tance is the fact he has no
political entanglements. No
doubt his fresh and clean ap-
proach to matters of govern-
ment won him many friends
in the primary — many more
than most seasoned political ob-
servers thought he could muster.
Jarboe carried Creek county
handily in the primary. Malloy,
who publicly admitted he hadn’t
been too concerned with Creek
county previously, is now en-
gaged in a probing action with
his forces. Jarboe ran either
first or second in 87 per cent
of the Tulsa precincts in the
primary, and in over 90 pre-
cincts district wide. It would
indicate his campaign has caught
on with the diverse population
in the two-county district.
We think the voters hereabouts
will do well to repeat their pri-
mary performance and turn in
a clear-cut majority for John
Jarboe.
GOP Opening
Headquarters
Guest speaker at the official
opening Sunday of Sapulpa’s Re-
publican headquarters, 11 N.
Elm, will be Rep. Page Belcher,
Tulsa.
Opening ceremonies will be
at 10 a.m. with Belcher to speak
at 12:30 p.m. Open house will
continue until 2 p.m.
Running for re-election to Con-
gress, Belcher was unopposed in
the Republican primary. He has
moved to Tulsa this year to
run in the reapportioned 1st
district composed of Creek and
Tulsa counties.
Bowling Ball
Is Returned
Bowling bag, shoes and now-
ball were back with M. W. Reyn-
olds who had reported the three
items stolen earlier this week.
A Herald story Thursday re-
ported the missing equipment.
A subsequent story Friday told
of the return of the bag and shoes
and a idea for the ball.
Saturday, the ball was found
and Reynolds turned everything
to his daughter Lynn Hutson,
owner of the equipment.
The bowling ball was found in
the yard of Charles Teeter
406 N. Brown. Teeter found
the ball and reported it to police.

Nixon
Water
Lauds Oklahoma's Terror Raids
Projects, Voters Plague Saigon
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)-
Republican Richard Nixon
grabbed a quick birdseye view
of Oklahoma Saturday and then
praised its ‘‘great’’ water proj-
ects, voters and the GOP lead-
ers.
“I need your help," Nixon
told a cheering crowd estimated
at 10,000 persons. "Let’s go out
and win it big.”
Sporting an "Okie’’ pin sup-
plied by GOP Gov. Dewey Bart-
lett, Nixon said, "I’m proud to
be an Okie and I promise to
wear it when I come back here
In 1970.”
Promises to Return
He pledged to return to Okla-
homa for dedication of the Ar-
kansas River Navigation Proj-
ect, which he toured by air Sat-
urday with Bartlett, former
Gov. Henry Bellmon, now a
U. S. Senate candidate, and
Congressman James V. Smith
and Page Belcher.
Nixon described the naviga-
tion project In eastern Oklaho-
ma as “great,” said "farmers
are getting the short end of the
stick,” and promised to fight
any attempt to reduce the oil
depletion allowance.
He also called for the election
of Republicans to the U. S. Sen
ate and House, singling out
Bellmon for special priase.
Bellmon was Nixon’s campaign
leader earlier this year before
he resigned to run for the Sen-
ate.
Nixon said there was no oth-
er man "who will speak more
eloquently in the Senate . . .
than Henry Bellmon.”
"He is down-to-earth and is
close to the people of Oklaho- state.”

State Demos,
GOP Worried
At Wallace
By HARRY CULVER
UPI Capitol Reporter
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPl)-
George Wallace is creating po-
litical nightmares for Demo-
crats and Republicans alike in
this year’s election in Okla-
homa.
The possibility, if not likeli-
hood, of a heavy Wallace vote
Is haunting campaign camps in
the race for president, U. S.
Senate and even Congress.
Legislators coming to the
capitol relay reports from al-
most every region of the state
of almost unbelievable WaUace
strength.
There are some who try to
dismiss the Wallace movement
as a passing political fancy, an
emotional protest that will eith-
er die down or express Itself in
support for one of the major
party candidates. Others are
not so sure, or insist it will
grow.
Effects Are Question
If the Wallace movement is
running as deeply as it appears,
and If it lasts through election
day, the prime question is:
Whom will It hurt the worst?
Republican and Democratic
leaders predictably disagree.
"It appears that the Wallace
campaign and the Nixon cam-
paign are aimed at primarily
the same voters,” says Demo-
cratic State Chairman WlUlam
Kerr. "For this reason, I am
confident that Oklahoma will be
in the Democratic column aft-
er Nov. 5. There are just too
many thinking people in our
state for the results to be other-
wise.’*
Stewart, Kerr Disagree
Bud Stewart, GOP state
chairman, replied to the sane
question: "I think the Demo-
crats will be hurt in Oklahoma
without any question. The
strongest Wallace area at this
time is in the third congression-
al district, where we tradition-
ally get no more than 30 to
40 per cent of the vote. I think
there are many people who his-
torically do not want to vote Re-
publican. They can vote for
Wallace and still be against the
administration. So if each loses
the same percentage of their
normal vote in that area to
Wallace, the Democrats are
bound to lose many more than
we.’’
"We will lose some votes to
Wallace elsewhere," Stewart
said, "but not as many overall
os the Democrats.”
While each party leader might
make a good case publicly for
his view, there are Indications
both are worried privately.
Republican Gov. Dewey Bart-
lett has shown his concern over
Wallace’s strength, speaking out
several times recently. He has
Release Hinted;
Hospital Ready
SEOUL (UPI)-A hospital
ward was cleared and ambulan-
ces stood by Saturday for the
possible release of the 82-man
crew of the U.S. Navy
Intelligence ship Pueblo from
North Korean captors.
American sources said the
release could be timed to
coincide with celebrations this
weekend of North Korea's 20th
anniversary.
Several Indications prompted
speculation that freedom for the
crew was Imminent, but there
was no official confirmation
from either the United States or
North Korea.
One authoritative source said
an agreement had been reached
between American and North
Korean negotiators, and that
the crew would be released
prior to the celebration of the
20th anniversary of the founding
of North Korea on Monday.
Vehicles Stand By
It was learned that a hospital
ward has been emptied at the
U.S. military base at Ascom
City 20 miles west of Seoul
and that four military buses and
four ambulances were standing
by at Panmunjom in expecta-
tion of the crew’s release.
Speculation was that the
Red Cross Blood
Donations Asked
Roll up those sleeves. It’s blood giving time.
The Red Cross Bloodmoblle will pay its quarterly visit
to Sapulpa Wednesday, with hours scheduled from 1 p.m. to
7 p.m. In the Oklahoma Gas and Electric club room, 19 N.
Main.
Sapulpans and the Red Cross are cooperating In an effort
to collect ISO units of blood compared with only 57 donated at
the last visit June 13.
At the March 13 visit, more than 100 pints of blood
were given despite bad weather as the town recovered from the
worst snowstorm of the winter.
Sapulpa’s four Beta Sigma Phi chapters — Gamma PI,
Delta Rho, XI Beta Mu and XI Beta Zeta - are sponsoring the
campaign to bring out donors.
Czechs Ordered
To Get In Line
sailors would be taken by bus or
possibly helicopter to Ascom for
physical examinations and de-
briefing before being flown to
the United States.
One authoritative informant
said the turning point In the
negotiations came Aug. 29 when
U.S. officials agreed to sign a
receipt for the crew and that
the document would contain an
admission that the Pueblo
violated North Korean waters
during its intelligence-gathering
mission last January in the Sea
of Japan.
Chosun llbo, one of South
Korea’s leading newspapers,
said agreement on the release
was likely to be announced by
Monday.
Speculation that agreement
was imminent was heightened
by an announcement from the
official North Korean News
Agency that it was Increasing
its transmission schedule for
"important reports.”
(In Washington, the State
Department said the United
Stales had no reason to believe
the crew would be released.
("We are not reading into
that anything In connection with
the Pueblo and crew,” a State
Department spokesman said
when asked about the North
Korean News Agency announce-
ment).
The Rieblo and its 83-man
crew were seized by North
Korean gunboats on Jan. 23.
One of the crewmen died in
custody, apparently of wounds
suffered when the ship’s officers
tried to destroy classified
documents with dynamite.

Difference With Brooke
Termed Insignificant
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)-
Republican presidential candi-
date Richard M. Nixon said
Saturday his differences with
Sen. Edward Brooke, R-Mass.,
over several aspects of the
GOP campaign were not "signi-
ficant.”
Brooke, the only Negro sena-
tor, has plainly differed with

and a huge fire plauged the
capital.
