Former GI seeks to reunite with German wife in Elk City
Kenneth Headrick, 22, plans to bring his German wife Maria Margareta Ries and their son to the United States after army red tape blocked their civil marriage in Germany in 1949. Congressman Wickersham introduced a bill allowing entry if a remarriage occurs within three months of Maria’s arrival. Maria plans medical exams and form filings in Munich before final approval. East Central State College in Ada begins a weekly radio program on KADA in October covering music drama and poetry. Dr. John H. Lowe leads a Lions Club blood typing drive in Wewoka to type every citizen and issue RH cards.
