• These are the 7 Oklahoma towns Route 66 helped shape (newson6.com) — Clinton gets the spotlight here as the “Hub City of Oklahoma,” home to the official Oklahoma Route 66 Museum that dives into the highway’s history and culture. The piece also tours six other Route 66 towns, but Clinton’s museum and its role on the Mother Road stand out for local pride and tourism appeal. 
• Senators approve oil royalty bill (okenergytoday.com) — An Oklahoma oil-and-gas royalty bill with Rep. Anthony Moore, R-Clinton, as House author has cleared the state Senate unanimously and is headed back to the House. The measure would clarify interest penalties on unpaid royalties and create a state-managed fund so mineral owners can more easily claim proceeds they’re owed.
