Three Angles on the Enterprise

All three of these articles came out in relation to STTMP.

This is from the November 31, 1979 OKC Journal.  Note in the middle of the center column, we go from a recounting of help from JPL to a first-person diary of sorts from Shatner.  This must be a second article pasted after the first, or we must have a missing descriptive transition here, or ...?

Vindicated! I say!  This one is from the December 4, 1979 Oklahoman.  Jimmy Doohan was right in saying that the characters are the cohesive force of Trek's appeal.

And from that storied day, December 7, 1979, another from the Oklahoman.  "No panic over the cost"?  RIGHT!

You tell me ... did the gamble pay off?  I should say!
