BEES ERADICATED BUT
BRICKS BUSTED BY BLAST
GLENDALE, Calif., UPt—Fire
Marshal A. W. Hunt offered this
report Tuesday oh an explosive
bee fumigation conducted by a
citizen:
John L. Harris, seeking to erad
icate bees in his chimney, climbed
to the roof and dropped down a
gasoline-soaked rag, unaware that
coals still glowed in the fireplace.
The resulting blast blew both
bees and bricks into the living
room. Mrs. Harris, in another
room, and Harris, on the roof,
escaped injury. Fire department
investigators estimated damage at
$1,000.
The evicted bees apparently
took up residence elsewhere.
Djakarta, capital of Indonesia,
is 7,640 miles from San Francisco
by the nearest sea route.
