Caption: "The above picture, which appears to be a double exposure (it's done with a mirror), should prove no more confusing than the subjects in real life at the capitol. Almost identical twins, they confuse even their fellow employees. Mrs. Jessie Belle Dickson, left, has been employed in the land since 1929, Mrs. Jennie Delle Dahlgren has worked in the secretary of state's office since 1920."

Photograph taken for a story in the Oklahoma City Times newspaper. Caption: "Monday was jinx day at the Oklahoma air national guard camp, Enid. First a gas trailer fell from its jack wheels and the fire department had to spray the area until a mobile crane righted the tank, above. Then a leak in an underground tank dumped 10,000 gallons of gas on the air filed. No. 3 was a crash of an F-51 in which the pilot escaped."

[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.3962]

Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "The campaign to spray Oklahoma City with DDT started off with a roar Monday when two planes in tight formation "fogged" the downtown area. The ships piloted by Norman Blake and Ralph Fehring, made five passes over the city, streaming long tails of vapor. The stunt was dreamed up by the Junior Chamber of Commerce, sponsors of the spraying campaign. The gag worked too wello. Jaycees had hoped citizens would believe the planes were spraying DDT fog, instead of smoke. People apparently fell for it, for they sat on the checkbooks Monday. Jaycee headquarters closed the day with only $35 in collections from merchants in the 42-block downtown area to pay for actual extermination spray planned Thursday. Cost will run about $35 a block. Other sections of the city, where no plane-borne smoke drifted, were more co-operative. More than 80 blocks of the northwest section of town, divided along Western and NW 23, were lined up for neighborhood spraying this week by mobile units."
