In Mannington West Virginia thousands of tons of limestone chunks were dropped into two air shafts to starve a coal mine fire that has trapped 78 men. Explosions started the blaze early Wednesday and have resisted efforts to control it. Surface rescues of 21 midnight shift workers have occurred, but no word from the trapped group.
