Duncan recently reported that short wave radios have been in stalled in all four forest towers in his area High Top in Haywood, Kerrin Knob in Buncombe, and Pilot and Frying Pan in Transyl vania This means that the lookouts at these points now can get word out almost immediately after they spot a spiral of smoke or the least sign of a blaze. Portable sets also have been added so that men can carry them to the scene of the fire. Thus, one man from a vantage point of view of a blaze can quickly in struct the firefighters about the best ways lo battle it and inform them how the fight is going.
