I think the second one is Demon's Rocks.
I'll have to think about the first one. Looks like Timmy, George, and that could be Dick

Five Go Adventuring Again? Julian up ahead dragging Anne along.
"It's the ash! It's falling!" yelled Julian, almost startling Dick out of his wits...
"Listen to its terrible groans and creaks!" yelled Julian, almost beside himself with impatience.

Re: Guess the book from the Eileen Soper illustration
Could it be from Smugglers Top. That could be Sooty and Uncle Quentin just outside of the cave entrance?

The 2nd pic of Edgar falling into the cave in Five run away together.
The Chief looked at Fatty. "Brains are good, courage is excellent, resourcefulness is rare," he said, "but generosity crowns everything, Frederick. One of these days I'll be proud of you!" - "Vanished Prince".

Re: Guess the book from the Eileen Soper illustration
Could it be Adventuring again, when they have to look up and climb the ladder that leads to the wardrobe?

What about Finniston Farm, when they're trying to get out and into the barn where the hay is stored?
