Smoke billowed skyward for hundreds of feet, laced with ex plosions of flame as fire reached patches of juniper trees. The fire, believed to be man-caused, began at the edge of a residence at the southeast corner of the Prineville residential area. The City Fire Department was summoned, but flames quickly raced out of control into dry grass and sagebrush on the slope of the rimrock before firemen and neighbors could control the blaze. An urgent call was sent out for BLM and State Forest Depart ment fire fighters. Within half an hour, the fire was racing out of control ahead of a 40-mile wind over the top of the rim and across the table lands above. By 5 p.m. the fire had extended some two miles along the rim, behind ranches south of Highway 26, in an awe-inspiring reach of fire and smoke. As the fire approached green fields on the table lands, BLM crews set a backfire in the teeth of the wind, in a drastic last- ditch stand to halt the steady run of fire towards the grain fields and the Combs Flat ranching area. At the peak of the fire, two separate units among the BLM crews were trapped and com pletely encircled by flames that sniited direction in a capricious wind. Gale Ontko, fire control of ficer in charge of the BLM crews, was in one trap and raced through flames in his pickup. Lar ry Bilyeu, driving a 500-gallon tanker, was trapped and lost in the smoke for about an hour.
