1950s Politics In Oklahoma

I was very young when Edmonson's campaign was in full swing, but I recall the super-nifty song on the radio: E-D-M-O-N-D-S-O-N spells Edmondson for me! Years passed but I can still sing the entire jewelry jingle.

This happened after I left home for my career in the USAF. So I don't remember the participants. However, I am glad that it happened. I am a life-long member of the opposite party, yet I think that Gene's intervention was a good thing. One thing I want to comment on is this: The highway running from the "Four Corners" north of Enid to Nash and Jet is basically the same roadway that my parents drove on during WWII. Very little about it has changed over the 60 years since. Oh, there are stretches of change, but this road alignment has not been touched since it was built like in other parts of Oklahoma.
