doetoin mild hla eontlltlon was very
good in view of hla hurrowlng ex

renew their work. They Blurted
a new drive throuirh the blast-
swept tunnels, hoping lo find toher
miners alive In tho far reaches of

lieved that Krubik mlcht have
crawled from another section .if

tors believed the deadly after dump
had affected the ma,n's throat,
causing him to think ho was being
strangled.
Home of the bodies near Krubik
were burned and mangled. This
led rescuers to believe that Kruhlk
hud crawled to that point from
some other section of the mine and
they spurred their efforts to ex
plore the far recesses of tho work

bo found alive. .

Krubik was taken to the emerg

that' Krubik had escaped the gas
and after damp by remaining cool
when the blast came and by keep

mine where the death-dealing gases ,
were not so thick.
The rescue of Kruhlk gave hope
