* Wilburton Oklahoma mining disaster
* No. 21 mine explosion (1st report)
This 14 page newspaper has one column headlines on the front page:
* Fire Blocks Rescue of 93 Miners
* Eleven Negroes Believed Only Survivors of Blast Which Trapped Men in Oklahoma Shaft
* Federal Aid Is Rushed
Tells of the no. 21 mine explosion at Wilburton OK that entombed over 100 miners.
Other news of the day. Light browning with little margin wear. Also a few clippings cut out on the inside pages, front page is fine though. Otherwise good.
