been entombed in the lower levels
of the Argonaut mine.
1t was announced today by officials
in charge of the rescue crews that
sixty feet of green stone and about
nineteen feet of virgin ground re-
mained between the 4,2OO-foot level
of the Argonaut mine shaft and the
excavators, who are working in a
tunnel, which once connected the
Kennedy mine with the Argonaut, 1t
was estimated that it would require
another week of continuous labor to
reach the entombed men, although
considerable headway was made yes

An analysis of gases in the Ar
gonaut mine shows there has been
a reduction in the amount Of in
furious gas from s to 81 per cent
This indicated, chemists said, that

was expressed, however, when tht
men were first entombed there may
have been in the mine too much ga
to permit them to survive.

ECLIPSE SEPT. Il

E|NSTElN Theory
Astronomers Preparing
Ito Make Photographs
of the Sun


Chicago, Sept. Anew tests of the
balidity of Einstein's theory of rel
ativity will be possible with the total
solar eclipse on September 21, which
will darken the eastern coast of Afri-
ca, Australia and number of South
Pacific islands, according to Profess
sor Edwin B. Frost, of the University
of Chicago, and director of the
! Yerkes observatory.
The theory requires, he said, that
the rays of light from distant star
should be bent out of their straight
path when they pass within the field
of attraction of great body like the
sun. But stars whose light passes
close to the rim of the blazing sun
cannot be photographed except or
these rare occasions when the moor
obscures the sun.
The path of the sun in its annua
sweep around the sky is dotted witt
many stars which would serve for tht
test, but only those can be used which

Accordingly, photograph is mad
