The "Rocket" is one of the highlights of pre-game hijinx in its annual trip from Norman, to Dallas for the yearly clash with Texas University.

Jim Prater', who talked to several eyewitnesses, said he was told about a parachute "burning all the way down," but it was believed to be one of the big parachutes on the tail of the jets used to slow it down on landing. He quoted witnesses as saying the two planes were flying at around 15,000 feet and that the rear plane moved up and clipped one wing of the second six-jet bomber.

The New Orleans mayor quoted the figures in reply to claims by former state police superintendent Francis C.

Grevemberg, one of four opponents of Morrison in the gubernatorial race. "And we followed our arrests up with convictions," said Morrison, adding that in one category alone, arrests drinkers, 31 per cent of the state police arrests were jiot prosecuted and no charges were filed. Morrison said the records show that state police under Grevemberg made 171 arrests since 1952, or 1.4 per cent of the total arrests since that time.

Morrison said that if the independent voters will consolidate, "we can wind up this thing in the first primary."

On segregation, Morrison said thet he has successfully maintained segregation in New Orleans for ten years "without once having the line broken." "I have been sued by the NAACP not once, but a number of times. We have held the segregation line and we will always continue to hold it. we must remember to take care of the Negroes too.
