In 1960, Tulsa city population was 261,685 according to a U.S. Census Statistical Abstract HS-7 "Population of Largest 75 Cities, 1900-2000" found online. In 1940, the population was 142,157. So the city grew by about 120,000 over 20-year period, or an average of about 6,000 per year. The actual annual population growth from 1957 to 1960 is probably higher than this 20-year annual average, but I'd say a decent ballpark estimate for 1957 would be between 240,000 and 250,000. I'm sure there's a way to pull up a more precise 1957 estimate out of some www.census.gov database, but this is a good start.
