California Blaze
Routs Nearly 1000
In 7 Communities

SAN BERNARDINO, Calf,
Sept. 27.-Grimy crews ignited
backfires and carved new fire.
breaks in heavy timber early to-
day in their battle to stop flames
threatening to invade two evacu-
ated communities in the San
Bernardino Mountains.
The fire. which already has
destroyed three small structures
and 5000 acres of brush and
timber, forced nearly 1000 per-
sons from the resort settlements
of Cedar Pines and Jobs Peak
in the San Bernardino National
Forest yesterday.
The blaze is the most serious
of eight forest and brush fires
still burning in California. In the
last five days these and other
fires in the State have cost three
lives, at least a dozen homes and
5000 acres of watershed cover.
Other Fires Under Control.
Only the fire near here and a
750-acre blaze near Los Padres
National Forest, not far from
Monterey. remain out of con-
troll.
More than 600 men on the
f1relines north of here were
aided during the night by a
rise in humidity to IS per cent,
and a drop in wind velocity.
Unfortunately, the wind was
expected to increase today.
Many of the men, including
crack Zuni Indian smoke eaters
from New Mexico, have had
little or no sleep since this fire
began Saturday.
The flames cracked down the
steep mountain slopes to within
half mile of this city of 80
600, showering the area with
sparks. A wind shift swirled the
flames away and 4 miles up
the mountain to the edge of the
town of Crestline.
Leap Firebreaks.
Fire fighters, using $50 pieces
Of equipment. turned the flames
back. The fire then roared
through Devil Canyon, leaping
f1rebreaks guarding Cedar Pines
and Jobs Peak.
Ranger Don Bauer, who di-
rected the battle from hell
rcopter, said his crews hope to
control the flames by tomorrow
morning.
Among those volunteering to
fight the flames was Heavy
weight Champion Rocky Mar
ciano. vacationing at nearby
Lake Arrowhead. He was put
to work pouring coffee for the
1unis at Forest Service camp.
Mr.. Bauer said officers are
investigating indications the
costly fire may have been in
cendiary; there have been six
or seven minor fires in the SAME
area since June /.
