PAGE SIX THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE SEWER GAS BLASTS REMIND LONDON OF WARTIME AIR RAIDS Str == —ws lS ts Heaved Up, Shop Fronts Caved In, Knocked Down London, Dec. 20.—(7)}—West and yentral London were given a startling seminder of wartime air raids today 4 when exploding gas mains caused a miniature earthquake that heaved up ong stretches of streets and caved in shop fronts. The explosions started when a workman entered a manhole with an electric blower used to remove foul : alr from passages leading into a * large inspection chamber below the toadway outside of the postoffice \ depot Broad street. This first xplosion was followed by a series of shocks along the street flinging curbstones into the air, knocking down pedestrians, and shat- tering shop windows. One manhole cover was hurled high into the air/ ‘and crashed onto a motorbus. Cracks |Bppeared in the road, wooden blocks ‘were heaped up and the streets along which the explosions took place looked like a jagged trench. The damage extended over more than a mile of pavement. The crash of the explosion was ‘worse than bombs during air raids said the occupant of a flat nearby ‘who was blown off his feet. “I thought there had been an ex- plosion at the base of the building which shook like tissue paper,” he baid. Smoke rose to a height of 30 or 40 Yeet after the first explosion, the residents of nearby dwellings dashed into the streets and fire engines ap- peared from every direction. Their Services were not greatly needed and they soon departed. —— Personal and t Social News of : Mandan Vicinity | o_O A daughter was born to Mr. and j Mrs. John Price at a Mandan hospital ‘Wednesday. j eee | Mr. and Mrs, M.
