Mine Rescue Proceeds In Remote Pennsylvania Tunnels
Drag line teams and a black Labrador were brought in to search 15 miles of tunnels under Morgan Run for three boys believed to have entered a closed mine last Sunday. Officials, mine inspectors, and Sheriff James Reese coordinated as pumps were prepared after a large water pool was found. Governor orders led state mine secretary Lewis Evans to oversee efforts. Despite cave-ins and submerged passages, searchers hold hope aided by steady 45 to 50 degree mine temperatures and drinkable water within reach.
