Huge Land Slip-Curious sightseers gather in the Eastern Ohio mining community of Florence where major slips of a mining "gob" pile there today virtually isolated the mining camp. A road leading to Florence as well as a railroad spur, were covered by some 40 feet of the mine refuse. Some 125 miners were ordered home until the aera was cleared.
