Five Hours.I
(By Associated Press)
STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, March
11.-Cheated of'all but two victims
among the 89 men trapped in the
sioke-filled tunnels, flames lappedI
stubbornly away today in the
depths of the Wolf Run mine ofj
the Warner collieries near Amster-
dam 25 miles from here.
Sparks from the electric trolley
pole of a train started a conflagra-
tion which for hours threatened a
major nine disaster, but heroic
rescue squads, picking their way
through tongues of flames spring-
ing from timbers and coal, brought
every man but two safely to the
surface.
Fumes are Fatal.
Paul Borkowski, 65, died soon af-
tei' he was brought out. He suf-
fered from asthma and could not
survive the choking coal fumes he,
had breathed. The body of Jack
Pewoswski, 37, was found beside a
door of one. of the mine rooms.
Another miner, George Allman,
was severely burned on the feet,
legs and hips while dashing across
a barrier of fire. Two rescuers,
Sidney Wales and Arnold Horton,
inspectors of the mine, collapsed
fromexhaustion after tramping
* for miles to search for workmen.
Many -Overcome.
The 87 others cut off by the blaze
were brought out unharmed, al-,
though 70 of them owed their lives
to the desperate work of the Steu-
bnville fire department and mine
rescue squads. About a dozen of
them were unconscious from the '
intense heat and. smoke when car-
ried to the surface, but most of
them were able to walk to their
nearby homes after they had been
reviv'ed. Company officials an-
Aounced at midnight that every
man had been accounted for.
The fire broke out about 4,000
feet back from the main entrance
, shaft Monday afternoon and to e-I
phone co munication to the mines
were destroyed.
Department Makes Fast Run.
The Steubenville fire department,
made a 25-mile run and began
pumping water just in time to save
the weakened timbers from allow-
ing dirt and shale to slide in and
block the trapped men. About 70!
men were threatened, the rest hav-
ing been able to escape or were
brought out before the flameg
could cut them off.
For a time it seemed that theI
fire would be the victor, but five
hours later it was checked suffi-
ciently that rescuers, wearing gas
masks, crept through and brought
out 70 men, exhausted and gasping
for air.
The rescue was made barely in
time, for less than three hours lat-
er the flames again gained head-
way nd Fire Chief Edward Green
of Steubenville said he feared it
would be impossible to save the
mine from destruction. Shifts of
firemen were kept at their post
until night.

Kenneth Stuart, '30B.Ad., presi-
<.. dent of the Business Administra-
tion club, announced yesterday'
i ", :' fh= that the club will hold a series of
eight weekly forums .under the?
leadership of various faculty mem-
bers, beginning on March 20. The I
I ngeetings, which will open at 7:301
o'clock and last an hour. are open(
to all students.
Dean C. E. Griffin, of the busi-j
ness administration school, will be

fession they are in, and what theirI
comparative speed of promotion is.

to Carry on Sales Campaigns
for Retail Stores.
Increasing the sales of local mier-
chants will be the purpose of the
Campus Advertising Agency, whose
Michigan branch was established
this week in the Michigan Theatre
Building.
The local organization is associ-
ated with more than 20 similar
'agencies in the more important
college towns of the country. Aid-
ed by the accumulated experience
of years of work in this field, the
Michigan branch considers itself
well qualified to supervise the
sales campaigns of Ann Arbor re-
tailers.
The agency will not accept ad-
vertising from any firm until it
has conducted a thorough investi-
gation of the merchant's individ-
ual problems. After an analysis
has been made, the type of adver-
tising which will have the greatest
appealĀ° will be outlined.
I The agency is said to offer re-
markable opportunities for stu-
dents interested in publicity, coim-
mercialnart,and advertising.

Last fall, just 88 years later, the
last student's registration brought
the total to 11,555, which is an in-
crease of'over 1650 times its orig-

nearly 14,000.

diagonal walks, were the fashion
