CARELESS SMOKER
CAUSED FIRE NEAR
ROCA LAST WEEK
The recent fire east of the Boca
Dam on the Tahoe National Forest
was caused by a careless smoker.
Through the alertness and quick
action of forest officers of the Tahoe
National Forest, Robert Hill of Truc{kee was apprehended for smoking in
a closed area, and proven to have
caused the fire by. his carelessness
with cigarettes and matches. Hill
was arraigned before Justice of the
Peace Smith at Truckee where a plea
of guilty was entered. and was subsequently fined $25. _
Supervisor Ellis states that here js
result of
earelessness with cigarettes and
matches that all conservation agencies have been trying to prevent. This
means that this man failed to heed
newspaper and other publicity-to be
careful with fire. The sure way to
cooperate and avoid fires is to leave
smoking materials in camp when going into areas closed to smoking and
then there won’t be any temptation
to smoke. The slogan “‘Careless
‘Matches aid the Axis’’ should be remembered -by everyone.’’ says Ellis,
as we must all get together and
preach and practice fire prevention
at home and abroad—It pays.

Deer Hunters Aid In
Fighting Boca Area Fire
Deer hunters were secured recently in the Truckee area to assist! in
fighting the Boca Quarry fire which
was quickly controlled with their
aid. “The hunters were pressed into
service due to a shortage; of man
power in the area,’’ reports Supervisor Ellis of the Tahoe National
Forest. Without the aid of these
men the fire would in.all probability
have been much larger and more
costly to control.
Nearly all the’ hunters pressed into service held forest service fire
prevention volunteers cards and were
more than glad to assist in controlling the fire. “The forest service
deeply appreciates such cooperation’’
states Supervisor Ellis, ‘‘and hopes
to contact more and more. people
with the fire prevention pledge cards
to help reduce man caused fires.”
