Hurd, 54, arrived in Belfast from London for his first day as Northern Ireland Secretary, replacing James Prior who had resigned after serving three years, saying it was time for a change. The attack on the policemen occurred in front of a crowded shopping center in Londonderry, 60 miles northwest of Belfast, the capital of the British province. William Ross, who represents a Belfast district in the British Parliament, said the attack was "a terrorists welcome for Hurd, who was formerly a deputy foreign minister.

Death Toll 13 in Brazil Disaster Crews Retrieve CRICIUMA, Brazil (UPI) - Rescu- 11 Miners Bodies "There could be one or two survivors if the system was not totally destroyed, said Vilson Simao, a geologist at the mine. 50 Yards of Rock Simao said the rescuers found the 11 bodies after making their way to within 50 yards of the rock face where the miners were working. The explosion marked the worst coal mine disaster in Brazilian history, surpassing a 1980 fire at a mine in Rio Grande do Sul state that killed five people. Police cordoned off the pit area and held back weeping relatives while a local priest led an open-ai- r mass and prayers.

Eighteen other miners were missing and feared dead. Six firemen were hospitalized after encountering poisonous gas as they tried to push past twisted coal conveyors and other machinery that blocked a tunnel leading to the miners, officials said.

Chance Could Be Alive "If the channels are not blocked, theres just a chance they could be alive," he said. "But it's a slim chance." Officials, denying earlier reports, said there was no fallen rock and litin the mine, tle threat of cave-in- s which consists of a series of tunnels dug into the side of a mountain. Goes said the main problem hampering rescue efforts was a solid pocket of gas. Mining officials said it was not immediately clear what kind of gas had accumulated in the mine but it appeared not to be methane gas as earlier reported. tle. An additional 10 rebels were killed and an "undetermined number" were wounded in other recent battles in Zelaya province near the Caribbean, the ministry said. The latest report of an American killed in Nicaragua's war against rebels comes less than two weeks after two Americans the Reagan administration described as volunteers were killed in a rebel air attack on a Sandinista military camp near the Honduran border. The battles over the past week and Nicaraguan government reports of kidnappings appeared to support claims by the rebel Nicaraguan Democratic Force, or FDN, that it would launch a September offensive to overthrow the Nicaraguan government. One of four agricultural workers kidnapped in Monkey Point Friday was later killed by the rebels, the ministry statement said. From Honduras, the clandestine Radio 15 de Septiembre of the FDN said guerrilla forces recently inflicted 175 casualties on government troops. It said 12 officers were among those killed. Neither casualty claim could be in; dependently confirmed. The Defense Ministry also said rebels kidnapped 32 Nicaraguan civilians during the past few days, among them Ray Hooker, a college professor and candidate of the leftist Sandinista Front for the November elections. In El Salvador, leftist guerrillas battling the government of President Jose Napoleon Duarte said over their clandestine Radio Venceremos that they killed or wounded 108 army soldiers in combat during the past two weeks. Army spokesmen were unavailable for comment on the rebel claim but said earlier that fewer than six soldiers were wounded in recent operations, which they said killed 23 insurgents. In Managua, the Defense Ministry said a rebel killed Saturday in eastern Zelaya province appeared to be an American.

Soviet forces have recently limited their activities almost entirely to. making reconnaissance flights over the guerrilla strongholds. Kabuls efforts to resettle villages in the Soviet and Afghan government-controlled foot of the valley is also running into difficulties. Most villagers fled during the fight for the area. The Afghan government appears to have given up its efforts to attract back the original villagers, while Afghans from other parts of the country are refusing to be settled there. Main Obstacle The sources said the main obstacle seemed to be Kabuls plans to set up new villagers in the immediate area of garrisons. The situation in the Panjshir valley has been relatively quiet during recent weeks, although the Moujahedeen rebel fighters have continued to make regular lightning attacks on Soviet and Afghan military targets.
