Kennedy Hails Rights March Pledges More Jobs Federal Mine Safety Bill ASH INGTON (AP of tlie Interior Stewart L. Udall said Wednesday the Utah mine explosion and the Pennsylvania ordeal involving three mmers underscore laxness of safety practices in some segments of the industry. Udall said President Kennedy expressed to hum again his personal concern over such disasters. The subject was raised in light of the Utah explosion on Tuesday which trapped 25 miners 3,200 feet underground, with some of the miners rescued and others killed or still missing. This comes on top of the rescue of Henry Tlirone and David Fellin from the Hazleton, coal mine after 11 days.

Udall said the study of coal mine safety practices which was conducted at Kennedy's direction early this year has been completed and his department will recommend changes to Congress before the end of the week to strengthen I coal mine safety laws.

A worker at the hydro-electric project, Harvey Hunt of Stroudsburg, said tiie plane made several passes over the site and then the motor was cut and the craft glided in toward an open area. It hit with such impact that tlie plane was demolished. Hunt pulled Crawford from the wreckage.

Crawford's father, James, is a superintendent at the plant but was in Lebanon when the crash occurred. State police said the youth had departed from the Blairstown airport at 7:15 p.m. for practice flying.
