Interesting. I don't recall that, at least to the extent described in the article. Written a little sensationally maybe, by a reporter who probably wasn't on the scene, for people who had never been there. But it would sell newspapers back east though. Hell, I would have bought a copy mistakenly believing it was describing an old time family reunion of mine.

for whatever reason, allot of timesWhen I find an Interesting article, it is in
a different states paper & not in the particular states news
makes me wonder at times If the Reporters were sitting at a desk,
on slow news days
making things up. figuring CNN & FOX Wont be invented for another 80
or more years, So who would Know
anyway in this case it appears to at least be in Oklahoma's news also.

Thanks for that link. I need to look that up, as I don't think there's been a whole lot written up about it by Oklahoma historians. Course, there was a whole lot goin on in early day Oklahoma, and it will take a while to get to all of it.

for some reason draft Resistance & the Governments responses to it don't seem to be things
the states historians are proud of
There for awhile it seemed to me they wanted to try and make people
believe the 60's, Drugs & Hippies invented draft resistance.

Of course What kind of music were the listening to Back Then ?
maybe Harmonica music caused it.
