Their Sad Good Deed -- Chilean Boy Scouts act as stretcher bearers for blanket shrouded body of one of the inhabitants of El Cobre, tiny Chilean mining village wiped out by yesterday's earthquake and flood. In the background is a sea of high-piled mud left behind when the quake split open a 230-foot-high dam to send millions of tons of water over the area. Rescue workers found only a few survivors of the disaster which killed most of the 400 living in El Cobre.
