Everest Peak Climb KATMANDU. Nepal lUPD Two teams of American mountain climbers struck out towards the ton of Ml. Everest, the world's highest peak, from the south and west sides today in hopes of meeting at the summit. An official spokesman for the expedition said there was "ligh hopes for everybody. But, lie said, there was no confirmation that anyone actually had reached the peak when last word was radioed to Katmandu from thei base camp today. Earlier, expedition spokesman Daniel Doody had radioed from the base camp on the slopes ol Everest that chances of a team reaching the summit by the previ ously uneplored west ridge route today were "very slim. But he said "we hope for good news" from a team attempting the better-known south col route. Outcome of the double attempt may not be known until Thursday due to weather and communica tions difficulties, he said. Dr. William Unsoeld. 36, Corval-i lis, Ore., and Dr. Thomas F. Hornbein. 32, San Diego, formed the west ridge assault team which has been delayed by storms and! the unfamiliarity of the route. Doodv said thev appeared to have 2.000 feet to go today to reach the lop of the 29.023-fnol peak, highest in the world. This appeared too much for one day's climb. "They know they have to give up in time to return to the base camp by Saturday." he said. Thel expedition plans to come down from the base camp that day. The south col team of Barry C. Bishop. 30. Washington, and Lu ther G. Jcrstad. 26. Eugene. Ore.. reached its final camp Tuesday. If they reached the summit and found no trace of the west ridge team, they planned to return alone the way they came. It had been hoped both teams could meet at the summit and come down the south col route together. ported to KFPA headquarters since Monday and broke out as the association was in the process; of opening some of ;ls eight fire cuard stations and 14 lookout low ers located in Klamath and Lake counties.

The towers were not to be; manned until sometime later this month. It was the lookout at Chase Mountain who detected the snag fire east of the Klamath River. The most violent electrical storm came about 5:30 p.m. Mon day when lightning set aliro a snag on a ridge between Hama ker Mountain and K e n 0 and started two others on the south west side of Chase Mountain. Ahoul II p.m. that night, lire- (ighters were sent to the rid; on Hamaker, while others sought Ihe locations of the two fires near Chase Mountain, according to George Wardell, supervisor of the KFPA. Wardell said the team dis Hatched to Hamaker Mountain re turned the following morning and reported that lightning had set afire a huge snag which, at that time, was still smoldering. Soon after, a tractor and operator was sent to the ridge to rip apart Ihe snag and extinguish its smol dering pulp. Meanwhile, the other two fire fighting teams returned lo KFPA headquarters after tailing lo un cover the fires at Chase Mountain Wardell speculated that rain may have put out the burning snags or they may still be smoldering, to break into flames again after the torm passes and the forest dries out.
