By the Associated Press. | LOS ANGELES, October 26.—South- | ern California’s greatest mountain fire ranged beyond control in its fifth day | today. | Several ‘hundred residents of the | area embracing Seminole, Hot Springs |and Malibu Lake were prepared to flee from their endangered homes on a moment’s notice. They packed their belongings and Sheriff Eugene Bis- cailuz had deputies ready to spread the alarm. The new outbreak occurred along the Crestline Malibu Crags region of the Santa Monica Mountains, 20 miles west of here. The fire, together with other blazes and winds, has wrought $10,000,000 damage since last Tuesday night's windstorm. The sheriff’s office reported the east crest of the flames was within a mile | and a half of the Malibu Lake colony. This colony is in the heart of the mountains, 7 miles from the famous | million-dollar beach movie colony. The movie colony was saved from the flames Thursday night- -firemen fight- ing the blaze within 100 feet of one ‘or the palatial Strand residences. | The west crest of the fire was within 2 miles of Seminole Hot Springs, 3 | miles west of Malibu J.ake. A front | of flames extending from the Castro Peak area to Mesa Peak was advanc- ing at the rate of a mile in 10 hours |over a 5-mile front, sheriff’s forces | reported. More favorable weather conditions were reported by Spence Turner, coun= ty fire warden. He expressed hope | the 2,000 C. C.

'LAST RITES HELD FOR DR. RANSOME | ! Geologist, Former Resident of Capital, Buried in Rock Creek Cemetery. Final rites for Dr. Frederick Leslie Ransome, nationally prominent geol- | ogist and former resident of Wash- ington, who died October 7 in Pasa- dena, Calif., were | held Thursday et Rock Creek Cemetery.

Washington Wayside Random Observations of Interesting Events and Things. TWO TRUANT HIDEOUTS RUANT children, according to District Policewomen reports, are most likely to be found in | one of two spots. 1. Movies: Doormen, at neighbor- hood theaters, have lately been rais- ing a squawk that they're tired of | spring of bridge-playing mammas, and ticket-taker, too. They say the moth- ers deposit their children at the door with a ticket (and often with a box of lunch), and bounce off about their | businesses with the parting admon- ishment to the child: “Come home when you get tired.” 2. A pickle factory: Just what the special attraction of this F street insti- tution may be is not quite apparent. It is not visible from the street, and this may have something to do with it. At any rate, Policewomen have learned that this is a very likely place to pick up the youngsters who habit- | ually “don’t like school.” A STYDY IN CHEESE. Most cheese is made from cow’'s milk. Roquefort cheese is produced from sheep’s milk. A little known Italian cheese is made of 'buf- falo’s milk, while goat's milk is popular with many Europeon cheesemakers. Among the foreign- type cheeses consumed in the United States most of the lim- burger is made in New York, most of the Swiss in Wisconsin: the factories of both States have almost ended imports in Camembert, and most of the mild; soft cheeses originated in Italy are produced in California. The average Swiss is the world’s leading cheese eater, 16 pounds a year. The German eats 10'4 pounds, the Englishman 815 and the American only 414. | POLITICAL NOTE. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT's visit to the Eastern Shore of Maryland | | yesterday recalls a visit paid by Presi- dent Coolidge in 1934. ! All that was ever written about that {visit was that Mr. Coolidge went ashore from the Mayflower we shall not identify. Here's the story { behind the story: During 1924 Mr. Coolidge expressed concern over the outcome of his cam- paign for re-election. One of his ' friends, a native of the Eastern shore, assured him he could carry that part of Maryland if he visited this uniden- tified town and attended services at a | church which at that time was trying to raise furds to clear a mortgage. “Drop a generous donation in the collection box,” Coolidge is represented as ask- lng how fuch he would be expected | to contribute. “About $25." dent is reported to have said drop cash in the box. Give a check. The officers and congregation of the church will be so pleased they will frame it and keep it hanging in the church. They’ll never cash it.” Mr. Coolidge said no more—but took | the advice. J Today the $25 check still hangs in the church and Mr. Coolidge carried the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the Fall election in 1924. * %k X% IT HAD TO. BE. The inevitable has happened.

There are so many things we'd like to do if we only had the nerve. You know the kind of thing— letting forth a full-lunged shout during a tense moment at a lec- ture, saying “no” to the boss, etc., etc. Here’s a story of some one who let go. Visitors were going through a local telephone ez- change. They approached the switchboard where hundreds of calls were being put through. Sud- denly a man pushed forward. “There’s one thing I've always wanted to do,” he said, and with- out further to-do reached over and yanked out a handful of “plug- ins.” * ok K ok | TUBE TROUBLE.

LONGSHOREMEN’S FIGHT|: REMAINS DEADLOCKED Third Death in Gun Battle Tues- day at Lake Charles Ac- curred Today. | By the Assoctated Press. LAKE CHARLES, La., October 26.— The third death from last Tuesday's | bloody gun battle in the Internationak| Longshoremen'’s Association dock strike here occurred today while the contro- | versy over recognition of the I. L. A. ports. of 10 special guards shot and wounded in the encounter between 75 heavily armed men on the dock patrol and hundreds of I L. A. sympathizers, died today in the hospital here, bringing the death list to three in Lake Charles and five in the Gulf ‘Coast district since the strike began October 1. Lake Charles port has been closed to commerce under an indefinite truce declared by Gov. O. K. Allen of Loui~ siana just after the smoke of battle cleared the docks. Elsewhere along the Gulf Coast, from Pensacola to and including the Texas ports, similar deadlocked con- ditions prevailed in the strike ana picketing, with ships being loaded in most cases with independent labor.
