Disastrous Brush Fire Ends as

MALIBU, Calif., RAA cool, moist blanket of fog drifted in early today across the fire scared Santa Monica Mountains, where three disastrous fires glowed only as embers.
 Fire officials last night declared the blazes under control" Equip ment-massed from local agen- cies and from half of California's S 58 counties-rumbled homeWard during the night.
 Only scattered embers re- mained within the perimeters of the fire here, the one centered a dozen miles north at Zuma Beach, and a third over the crest of the mountains, adjoining the Zuma fire, in the Lake Sherwood area.
 Between them they burned over 50 square miles. Sixty seven homes were destroyed. One man was killed and two firefighters seriously injured.
 Several other fires broke out but were quickly conquered. The biggest of these was the 840-acre blaze, also controlled last night, which flared up near an oil field in Piru Canyon.
 As fog replaced the dry, gusty winds that famed flames for four days, hundreds of persons who fled from the fire returned to the scorched area. Some found only a chimney standing.
 There was Mrs. Jean Robinson, widowed 56-year-old former op- era singer, watering from gar den hose the hot ashes of her $30,- 900 home. She had saved only her dog Tim.
