50 Men Die in Canyon Fire at Griffith Park
Road Workers Ordered Into Conflagration
I Sate 25 Men Bum to Death — Eycivitness
By Sylvan t’reecy
(Cof*>nght, by Unitnl I’rm)
I saw between 20 and 25 men burned to death today, -screaming and fighting for life in a tornado of flre.
They were co-workers of mine on the unemployed relief rolls of Los Angeies county, and I ni lucky not to be lying among them. Just luck, blind luck, whlrh led me to run ln one direction while others of my fire-fighting detail were caught, saved my life.
We were on a side bill, between Mineral Wells canyon and Dam canyon. At first the fire was on the ridge above us. We started a back-fire. Wind swept through Ihe canyon as the hot air and smoke rose in billows.
Tornado of Fire
There was a whirlwind, a tornado of smoke and fire. The greasewood Bnd mesqulte took flre like tinder, and before we knew it the flames had nearly encircled us.
Some of my companions sought safety ln thc seetion burned over by our backfire. Terror-stricken, they leaped through the flames, continued on a few feet and went down ln a welter of hot ashes and flames. Their clothes naught flre as they tried to leap Into burned-over territory. The red hot ashes burned their feet. They screamed. It was horrible.
Some fought one another ln blind terror and Indecision. They had to fight something as the flames closed ln. It was instinct. They could not fight the flames.
Help Me!
Others of my group ran toward the top of the hill. They ran into a wall of fire. Flre came up from below. Screams mingled with the dry crackling of the burning brush.
"Oh, Godl” one man cried, "help me! Help me!"
1 was fortunate ln taking a diagonal course across the hillside.

Plans for Joint Class Dance Will Be Laid at Meet
Plans for a sophomore-freshman dai.ee will be the substance of a mass meeting of the sophomore class this morning ln Administration, 206, at 9:55 o’clock. The meeting wlll be for both men and women and everyone in the class of ’36 Is expected to attend, according to Gilbert Kuhn, president of the sophomore class.
"Because the underclassmen hav* not given any dances ln recent years ls no reason that the first and second year students of this year can not set a precedent and hold one this year," said Kuhn.
Plans for the dance are still ln the preliminary stages and committees to take charge of the proposed affair wlll be appointed ln today’s
at the law school's opening assembly at 10.10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Speaking upon his recent work in connection with the proposed plan for Judicial selection, Judge Wood will outline to S.C.'s young lawyers the system for the appointment of judges, differing from the present method of popular election.
Dean William Green Hale of the School of Law ln speaking of the Judge, said, "This vigorous personality has been active for a number of years ln the Los Angeles and state bar association. The new plan for Judicial selection has been his chief concern for a long Ume. In fact, he headed a committee on the city bar association which evolved a large section of the proposed amendment to the state constitution, and has been the most active ln promoting the proposition since then."
John Houser, president of the S. C. Bar association, stated that this
yesterday's fighting which resulted in the surrender of some 500 rx-army officers who opposeM thi? regime of Dr. Grau set up last month by the revolt of thc enlisted army men.
The officer* were lodged ln the cabanas and principle forts where they are to be held pending trial, presumably on charges of treason.
Their surrender was regarded as a victory for the Grau administration. giving the former university professor a strong grip on the army and power to continue ln office.
Mf.i ldellvery, suspended during the ftshting, was resumed. Shops and cafes reopened.

Charred Bodies Removed From L.A. Playground By Relief Crew
(By United Pr*»s)
At least 50 men were burned to death, nnd 100 Injured last night ln a canyon fire that enveloped Griffith park municipal playgrounds. on the northern edge of the city. .
Most of th evictlms were trapped ln a steep ravine when they were caught between thc main fire and a ''backfire'' they had started.
Within the space of a few min* utes the fire reached its peak and raced into the ravine. Surrounded by 300 acres of bumig brush, tb* volunteer firefighters were killed almost before they realized their danger.
51 Chan'ed Bodies
From the smouldering pit of tiie ravine firemen emerged tonight reporting 52 charred and blackcned bodies had been counted. None knew how many more were there, for the smoking ashes were so hot they could not proceed to the bottom.
Emergency hospitals In every part of the vtiy gave first aid to 100 men who suffered burns and bruises. Some were seriously injured but all were expected to live.
All the victims were county road workers employed on charity relief projects in the vicinity. Firemen believed a carelessly tossed clgaret caused the disaster.
700# Fight Flames Flre officials were taken by surprise. On first reports of a brush flre, one company was ordered to the scene. Soon calls came for re-Inforoainonts. Eventually 7.000 road worker sand every available flre

Slowly came back reports of men Injured. Then Flre Chief Ralph Scott telephoned to Mayor Frank Shaw that 12 men were burned to death. A few minutes later the coroners office said 22 bodies had been sighted. The number rose almost every minutes.
Not until the ffames were beaten out cf the canyon, and firemen clamebered down the steep sides was the full extent of the tragedy learned.
One minute the men were building a road. The next, armed with shovels, they were clambering down the ravine to fight a tire. In a matter of seconds they were aflame screaming for help that could not come.
Investigation Threatened
Angry scenes occurred as relief workers sought those responsible for sending the men into the raw lne.
“Straw bosses" ln charge of the workers were ordered to the poQce station for questioning by homicide squad detectives in preparation tot an investigation.
