Tommy cursed because they could

They remembered it later, and
sat and ate it while they watched
faint lights moving about the two
planes. The lights were, however,
so faint that they could distinguish
nothing. Then, just as they had fin

fused shouts, which sounded like
orders and responses, and then the
sudden roar of first one engine and
then another.

Pont de Nemours & Co announced
new hydraulic coal mining pro-
cess designed to minimize mine IA

previously done by explosives.
The company said that under the
new process IAN electrically driven
