A helicopter was able to land in the only other town within the circle, Francisco Leon, but had to leave before rescue workers could look for bodies, the spokesman said. He said soldiers would return as soon as rains cool the searing ash. Chichon, about 400 miles southeast of Mexico City, has belched out more than a billion tons of ash and cinders in a series of eruptions that started March 28. Ash has been blown as far north as California and Texas. The spokesman cited army reports showing 58 bodies had been recovered by soldiers as of Wednesday and three military men and a volcano specialist have been missing for more than three weeks. He said 93 people were se riously injured and 26,224 were housed in government refugee centers. But he said most of the refugees had left the centers, many returning to villages out side the danger area. if.S. bargain-hunters find friendly skies, seas rtga Kj United Press International , Wiih the U.S. dollar stronger on the world market, Europe is 1 expected to offer some of the -4- A L Bltravel bargains in years.
