20 miners rescued, 13 to go

SAN JOSE MINE, Chile (AP) — The miners who spent 69 agonizing days deep under the Chilean earth are being hoisted one by one to freedom today, their rescue moving with remarkable speed while their countrymen erupted in cheers and the world watched transfixed. Beginning at midnight and sometimes as quickly as once every 40 minutes, the men climbed into a slender cage nearly a half-mile underground and made a smooth ascent into fresh air. By early afternoon, more than half the men — 20 of 33 — had been rescued.
