Two Big Bushfires
Threaten Damage
Two big bushfires still burning in Viv-
toria threaten - further damage if strong
winds rise.
The north-eastern fire that destroyed
scores of farms and much stock last
week will burn into the rich, closely-
settled Thougla Valley if there is an
easterly win, Corryong reported today.
Forty men at the eastern end of the
valley have burned a seven-mile break.
Fire in the Otway Forest, where there
has been no rain, will be dangerous if
there is a north wind. Forestry men are
patrolling several fronts.
