[Photograph 2012.201.B1267.0355]

Description: Photograph used for a newspaper owned by the Oklahoma Publishing Company. Caption: "There was a small army of law enforcement officers on hand Monday morning when a "crisis" was passed without a blow being swung at the struck Sylvania plant in Shawnee. A back-to-work movement was promised and several workers did pass safely through the picket lines, but later both sides adjourned to the cafeteria for nothing more exciting than "picket" songs and derisive remarks directed at one another."
