Rescuers Dig 38 Feet to Save Baby in Michigan Shaft
In Benton Harbor Michigan rescuers after digging 38 feet into a farm shaft reached a 14 month old boy but efforts to revive him failed. The child fell into a narrow shaft and became wedged against the wall delaying rescue. Workers endured cave-ins and darkness while a improvised lighting system kept the operation going. The father assisted the crew as workers from the area joined shifts of about 100.
