California Condor Eben McMullan July 3-1964 Word just now (6:15, A.M.) came over the Radio that a serious brush fire that is raging in the Saugus-Newhall area presently was started by a stray bullet severing a high-power line. The fire started yesterday afternoon. The Saugus-Newhall area is about ten miles south of the Sespe Wildlife area and is probably used by Condor. That firing of Guns goes on continually throughout the Southern California area is well documented. The prohibition of shooting guns in most of Los Angeles County is a result of this activity. This is a serious factor in Condor Welfare.
