FOREST FIRES
SHOW INCREASE
DURING PAST YEAR

During the past six months end
ing December 81, 1948, which covers
the fall forest fire season, in dis
t2-ict one Of the North Carolina Forest
Service, "A forest fires occurred in
the cooperating counties which
burned a total of 80 acres of pri-
vately owned forest land, according
to report by M. U. Marlowe, coun-
tv forest warden. This is compar-
able to the six months period end
ing December 81, 1947 in which %
firest occurred in the 8 counties
which burned LOT acres of timber
land. The 8 cooperating counties in
district one are Buncombe, Hender-
son, Madison, Mcdowell, Mitchell,
Polk, Rutherford, and Vance,
which cooperate with the State in
forest fire control.
The increased number of fires
during this last period is charged
primarily to the dry month of Octo-
Der and carelessness on the part of
hunters. During this period all the
fires were man caused. Campers
and hunters were responsible for 81
of the a. fires which occurred, or 73
per cent of the number of fires in
the district. Brush burners were re-
sponsible for five fires or II per
cent; railroads were responsible for
3 fires or 7 per cent; smokers were
responsible for fires or per cent;
and one was caused by children play
ing with matches. The forest fires in
district one started simultaneously
with the beginning of the hunting
season. Seventy-three per cent of
the fires occurring in the district
which was caused by hunters is COM
parable to thirty-six per cent of
the fires which occurred in the dis
trict last fall that were caused by
hunters.
NJ. U. Marlowe, County Warden
Of Mcdowell County, had 5 fires
during this period which burned a
total of 16 acres of forest land. The
other seven cooperating counties in
this district and their fire records

For Fall Delivery

clubs. trudge into Grifith Stadi-
um tonight for the opener Of a
2-game series still pursuing their
first 1949 triumph over the Mats.
Against the Indians. Manager
Joe Kuhef plans to dispatch Sid
Hudson tonight. Cleveland has
not scored against Washing
ton in the last 20 innings and
has made only three runs In
three games with the Mats.
Meanwhile. Kuhel's plea for
pitching help has been answered.
but the help will be forthcoming
late this fall at the earliest.
Clark Griffith has plucked one
of the Pacific Coast Leagues
priced pitchers for his 1850 Mats.
In what he terms "a SIS. 900 deal
the largest we've made in years" !"
Griffith has obtained left-handed
Lloyd Hittle from Oakland for
delivery next spring or. if the
Oakland management deems it
advisable. later this year.
Candini Is Tossed In.
Thrown into the deal was Pitcher
Milo Candini. who will depart for
Oakland Immediately. Assuming
Griff1th's value on Candini is
$40, ,000-the waiver price-the
Mats tossed $65 900 into the trans
action and there is little doubt
they got one of the most promising
performers in the minor leagues.
Hittle. 175-pounder who is "a
years old. stands 5-10 and twice
led leagues in the vital earned-run
department. With the Glass c
California League in 1947 he won
20 games and lost six with Stock
ton and his 2.24 earned run aver
age was best In the loop.
Nudged up a notch to the Class
B Western International League
last year, Hittie won II games and
lost eight with Bremerton. again
leading his league with an earned
run average of 2.29. He also paced
the Western international in
strikeouts with 201.
Hittle will come to the Mats with
the unqualified Endorsement of
Scout Spencer Abbott. who was
detailed to follow him In Pacific
Coast League games. In his last
two starts Hittle lost a 10. four
hitter to Seattle. then beat Seattle,
1919, on seven hits.
Griff Seeking Immediate Help.
He is a right-handed batter.
Hittle will remain with Oakland
this season unless his bosses de-
eide they can dispense with him
later in the year. That's the only
way we could get Hittle." said
Griffith. 80 we took him on their
terms"
Candini. plagued with q sore
arm, had pitched only 525 innings
for the Mats this year and hadn' t
hurled since May 6.
Candini, resident of Manteca.
Calf, came to the Mats in jan
uary, 1943. with Second Baseman
Jerry Priddy when Pitcher Bill
Zuber and cash went to the New
York Yankees. He had his best
year that season when he won II
and lost Z.
Griffith still is seeking more i'm
mediate aid for Kuhel. who now
must function with q nine-man
pitching staff which includes two
inexperienced youngsters and sew
eral men who have been handi-
capped by minor ailments. His
slab staff has been so crippled, In
fact, that Kuhel welcomed the
showers which washed out last
