Two Actors Offer Help<br />
To Senate Candidates<br />
OKLAHOMA CITY—Two stars have offered<br />
to help in Oklahoma election campaigns.<br />
Roy Rogers has said he will come<br />
to Oklahoma to help the Rev. W. H. Alexander<br />
in his campaign for the Democratic nomination<br />
for U.S. senator. The pastor performed<br />
the ceremonies when Rogers and Dale<br />
Evans were married in Oklahoma in 1947.<br />
Shortly after this announcement, Senator<br />
Thomas disclosed Van Heflin had offered to<br />
visit Oklahoma in his behalf to win back the<br />
senate seat. Van's brother Marty is an old<br />
friend and former employe of Senator<br />
Thomas.<br />
In the Democratic race, that leaves Mike<br />
Monroney, now serving in Congress.<br />

Roadblocks Fail as Trap<br />
For Robber at Chickasha<br />
CmCKASHA, OKLA.—The highway patrol<br />
set up roadblocks surrounding this city to<br />
stop a man who robbed two theatres within<br />
a minute, but patrolmen failed to catch their<br />
quarry.<br />
Police said the rnan stuck up the Fix<br />
Theatre downtown and a few seconds later<br />
hijacked the Ritz Theatre a few doors away.<br />
He then drove away in a two-door sedan.<br />
Officers said the man was described as about<br />
25, five feet, eight inches tall and weighed<br />
about 165 pounds. The patrol reported the description<br />
is similar to that of a man who<br />
robbed the Mayflower in Oklahoma City of<br />
$125 the week before.<br />
It was not certain how much was taken<br />
at the two local theatres, although officials<br />
of the F>ix estimated their loss at only $22.<br />
