Caption: "Mammoth Eufuala Dam, under construction since 1956, will impound a reservoir, entirely within the state, that will overshadow even Lake Texoma which Oklahoma shares with Texas. Construction of Eufaula dam is near midway point. Water is to be available for power in 1964 and the lake is to be filled by 1965. Six eastern Oklahoma counties will share a direct benefit from the huge, new reservoir. it will extend into each of them. But the new lake, which will have a surface area 7,000 acres greater than Lake Texoma, presently the state's largest, will be a big recreational attraction for the entire state. Heavy western Oklahoma traffic is expected to be able to zoom to the Eufaula areaon high-speed, four lane I.H. 40 eventually. The first part of the 70-mile per hour freeway already is started. The reservoir will be principally in McIntosh, Haskell, Pittsburg and Okmilgee counties, but smaller areas will touch Muskogee and Latimer counties. Surface of its power pool will cover 102,5000 acres, compared with only 95,400 acres for Lake Texoma......Initial construction on this project to dam the waters of the Canadian between two bluff approcimately …

Sidewalk superintedents are getting an eyeful at Broadway and Park Ave. these days, and sign painters are getting a lesson in French. "It was bound to happen," one painter called down from his perch about 40 feet off the pavement."Look at that!" "What? It looks fine," an observer yelled back. The VIVa , man," replied the painter. "The VIVA. That's the Spanish spelling. It ought to be VIVE. The French spelling. We've had at least six people call it to our attention today." The painter was talking about the giant "French" scene being painted on the side of the Palace Arms Hotel, facing the Sun Suite pool of the Skirvin..."Funny thing about that misspelled word though," J. Stewart Bell of Glenn Advertising said. "We had three 'French' experts check the scene over so we wouldn't make any mistakes. But as soon as we were almost finished, a half …
