I960 Fire Season Was Among Most Critical in Books "In terms of fire danger, the 1960 season was one of the most critical on record," Robert H. Torheim, fire con trol officer, Rogue River Na tional forest, said Saturday. Torheim pointed out that high temperatures, low hu midities, and low fuel mois tures continued during the summer, and a prolonged drought was also evident. The U.S. forest service has reported the season was the "most severe" for the service in 20 years In Oregon and Washington. 93 First Repotted In the Rogue River nation al forest, a total of 93 fires were recorded, with 50 being caused by lightning and the remainder man-caused. Total land area burned was 64 acres, one of the lowest burn ed acreages in past years, ac cording to Torheim. As compared with 1959, also declared a year of high fire danger, 42 fires were re sponsible for 926 burped acres. In the Pacific Northwest region, a total of 1,869 fires burned 76,716 acres of USFS land by Nov. 1. The average for Uie past five years is set at 12,016 acres. According to forest offi cials, the 1980 fire record was surpassed in 1931 when 1,516 fires burned 106,631 acres. "Although lightning fires exceeded man-caused fires this year, a burgeoning popu lation with resultant increas ing use of national forests is making the fire protection job more difficult," officials note.
