CHICAGO, April 13—(UP)—At leait five men wpre killed and another was believed fatally hurt tonight when fire trapped more than a dozen workmen in an un-redground sanitary district tunnel.
Shortly after midnight the bodies of workmen John Miller and Joe Brazdicks and one unidentified workman and one unidentified fireman had been taken from compartments of the tunnel between the fire and the single opening.
Between 30 and 40 firemen already had been overcome by the smoke. Several workmen had been taken out unconscious and rushed to hospitals. One of them, James Marino, was believed to be dying.
Among the firemen seriously hurt were Capt. Tim O'Neil and Battalion Chief Tom Geary.
The tunnel is 36 feet underground and about 450 feet long. It ls about 15 feet high and divided into compartments. Large wooden doors divided the tunnel into sections and much sawdust is packed around each door. It was one of these doors that was burning, sending great billows of whit# smoke through the opening.

One of the features of the Extravaganza is the ensemble sing-Ing, trained by Winifred Parker. Previous productions have never specialized in effective group singing, so that this year should be of Interest for that reason.
Specialty numbers are being chosen, both for the show and to be presented between actB. Karma Rinkleff, director of dancing, will announce the names of those who have been selected to present novelty singing and dancing numbers later tn the'week.
