World's Largest
Blimp Arrives at
Santa Ana Base
Santa Ana, Calif. - IUPII -The
world's largest blimp, the
Navy's 342-foot ZPG2, was be
ing reoulfittcd today for
oceanographic research.
The craft arrived at this
southern California coastal
city Saturday to become the
first lightcr-than-air trans
continental craft to visit the
West Coast in five years.
The Navy said the purpose
of its six or eight-week so
journ here was for ocean re
search - but some unconfirm
ed reports said the blimp
would be used lo help de
velop future antisubmarine
warfare tactics along the Pa
cific Coast.
Equipment on Board
The sources indicate that
intricate new electronics
equipment was being placed
aboard the craft for use in
such a mapping project.
The Navy announced only
that oceanagraphic research
will be conducted in conjunc
tion with the Scripps Insti
tute of Oceanography at La
Jolla, Calif.
The ship with its 15-man
crew took five days to travel
from Lakehurst, N.J., to the
old Sanla Ana Air Base here.
It is the first blimp since 1956
to use the base, which ac
ommodated airships for Pa
cific Coast submarine patrol
during World War II.

Mining Experts Say 'Miracle'
Saved Reno Youth From Death
Virginia City, Nev.-IUPII-It
was dark and cold and ter
rifying at the bottom of the
50-foot air shaft . . . and 15-year-old
Larry Dacek thought
he was going to die.
Mining experts agreed to
day that a "miracle" saved
him.
Larry, a Reno High school
student, was trapped for 11
hours Saturday in the air
shaft of a silver mine in Ne
vada's Comstock Lode. He had
gone with two classmates in
search of relics for a history
class.
They found the mouth of
the Sutro Tunnel in rugged
hills not far from here, but
the mouth of the tunnel was
flooded.
I remember from school
the tunnel was ventilated with
shafts from the top every two
thousand feet, Larry said
"so we decided to climb the
mountain above the tunnel
and see if we could get in
this way."
Couldn't Move Lg
Larry and Fred Vatalero,
17, flipped a coin lo see who
would go down on a rope
lowered by the other two
youths. Fred lost, and was
about 10 feet down when he
changed his mind.
I made it down about 15
feet and some dirt broke
loose and splattered me
I decided lo come back
up, he said, men i nave a

funny feeling the rope was
Irclching. That's when it
broke ... It was a long time
before I hit the bottom.
"I wasn't knocked out, but
couldn't move my legs. They
were numb and cold. It was
freezing down there and I
could feel the bats flying
round me and see spiders
crawling around."
Mining experts said Larry
was lying on a rock layer
supported only by a few rot-
ton timbers of an old bulk
head. Below was a straight
,400-foot fall certain death
if the timbers had given way.
The experts said "only a
miracle" kept the timbers in-
act.
Goes for Help
Fred stayed at the lop of
the shaft, comforting Larry,
and the other youth, Howard
Carlson, 17, went for help
"It got pitch black down
there at 6 o'clock," Larry said.
