A26 Sunday, October 10, 1999 The Honolulu Advertiser POLICE BOAT A Maui man was rescued without injury yesterday after being pinned under a boulder in Kuau, police said. The unidentified man was digging a trench around noon when the ground around him collapsed and a boulder rolled over him. A private helicopter was called in to lift the boulder, police said. Big Isle fire finally under control Helicopter lifts boulder off man PU'UANAHULU, Hawaii A runaway fire that scorched more than 3,000 acres Thursday and Friday was brought under control yesterday and firefighters were "mopping up hot spots," according 1 to a Hawaii County fire spokesman. On Thursday and Friday, Mamalahoa Highway between Waimea and Kailua-Kona was shut down because of fear the fire would jump across the roadway and endanger drivers.

Some mauka-makai connector roads were blocked as well. The cause of the fire is still unknown. Most of the land burned is state-owned, located makai of the Mamalahoa route and mauka of Queen Ka'ahumanu State Highway. County and state forestry units battled the fire as well as rented bulldozers and helicopters. There were no structures involved and no known injuries.

Saddle Road crash kills passenger MAUNA KEA, Hawaii A Hilo man died early yesterday when the 1986 Ford Bronco he was riding in went out of control, rolled over several times and ejected him onto a lava field. The victim was identified as Rontan Kelekolio, 39, of Panaewa. Kelekolio was dead on arrival at Hilo Medical Center at 8:17 a.m. Police said the crash was reported at 4:21 a.m. at the 33-mile marker on Saddle Road, near the entrance to Mauna Kea State Park.

The driver, James Kalili, 50, of Kailua-Kona was west bound when he failed to negotiate the sweeping left turn toward Pohakuloa Training Area and went off the road into the lava. Neither the driver nor Kelekolio was wearing seat belts, investigators said. The death was the 24th highway fatality of 1999 on the Big Island, compared with 30 for the same time a year ago. Police seize marijuana plants HILO, Hawaii Big Island police seized more than 18,000 marijuana plants during a four-day eradication operation last week. The operation was conducted in the Puna, North and South Hilo and Hamakua districts.

Police said they discovered booby traps made of sharpened sticks during the eradication effort. The sticks, designed to injure officers rappelling from helicopters, were discovered Wednesday in the Saddle Road area but were not disclosed by police until Friday.

Alpinist legend was old, bold climber LOS ANGELES TIMES By his own definition, Paul Petzoldt was a contradiction in terms. "There are old climbers and there are bold climbers." he said, "but there are no old, bold climbers." Petzoldt, however, was an old, bold climber. In 1994, when he was 86 and suffering from glaucoma, he tackled Wyoming's formidable Grand Teton to commemorate the 70th anniversary of his first trek to the top of that peak. He made it to 11,000 feet and decided that was enough for a blind octogenarian, even if he was Paul Petzoldt, the legendary climber con-. sidered king of winter moun taineers.

Petzoldt, who had a ridge of the peak he so loved to climb named after him, died Wednesday of prostate cancer at a nursing home in Topsham, Maine. He was 91. He was a celebrated alpinist who pioneered a number of mountaineering techniques. As founder of the National Outdoor Leadership School, he also was called the father of wilderness education. 128 To find out more or to order your phone with free delivery, call 1-800-480-4PCS, visit www.sprintpcs.com or stop by one of the locations below: Sprint Hawaii Communications Centers: Executive Centre Times Square Shopping Center Kaahumanu Center (Maui) 1088 Bishop Street 98-1254 Kaahumanu Street 275 W.
