DANGER NOT REALIZED
Fire Ran So Rapidly That Only
the Fleet of Foot Could
Make Their Escape
Los Angeles, Oct. 3�One of the most frign' ful disasters in the history of this section occurred today at Griffiths Park, when thirty-three men, drawn from the ranks of the unemployed were burned tc death in a grass fire Which ran over the hills so fast that the men were unable to make their escape. Upwards of 200O men were engaged in a kind of forestry work, chiefly in cleaning up the landscape. The terrain on which they were working was rolling, very ligh' ly Umbered and covered with a heavy growth of grass which had become thoroughly dried.
It is believed tho fire was started by the throwing of' a cigarette stub into
the grass. The workmen did not � lalize their danger when the fire
itarted, many r.f them being youths

who had never, .seen a grass fire. When the fire ran around them with great �apidity a panic followed. Pilty-two of the workers made a race for a anyon, while others succeeded in getting ahead of the lire to places of safety. Most of those who sought lafety in the canyon found themselves crapped, as there was no way out for them and they were burned to death. Within a few minutes the fire was burn'.ng over an area of 500 acres.
The Los Angeles fire department was summoned and in a short time there were 7000 men fighting the fire, which was eventually subdued. So far the bodies of thirty-three men have been recovered. Most of the bodies were so badly burned that recognition was difficult, and it was decided to establish identity after a roll call of the i. %n in the relief camp could be made. .2 is feared the death roll will be inv/eu&og wht*n the burned-ov^r area has beer '.isely searched.
