Tulsa Area Still Menaced by Flood
The Arkansas River remained dangerous over Tulsa and northeastern Oklahoma as it crested at 21.54 feet, above flood stage, with forecasts it would stay high. Civil defense called the flood critical and search crews sought two to three boys seen on the river near the 71st Street Bridge. Water reached Brookside and Garden City with dozens of homes affected, and Guthrie evacuated about 150 families as nearby creeks ran bankfull.
