KENTON BROOKS/Muskogee Phoenix
Ike Weston of the City of Muskogee Water Distribution Department works in the foreground on a new 40-foot long water main on Hilltop Avenue. Robert Beason stands ready to assist and Robert Jones works at the other end of the main. Water had to be shut off for three blocks from South York Street to South Bacone Street while the main was repaired and the work was done in one day after a leak was reported on Hilltop Avenue.
