has exhibited considerable lung
power in the matter of wagering
ON sporting events, among other
things.
But as the big day approaches
for the Terps, a quick look back
on Jim Tatum's career is in order.
Tatum is in his eighth year of hea1
coaching and in his fifth year at
Maryland. His overall slate is SO
wins, 16 losses and five ties. While
he has taken the Terps to their
two Gator Bowl games as well as
guiding the Oklahoma Sooners
there in 1916, the game on Janu-
airy l also marks the first time he
has stepped into the fast company
of big bowl game.
Saturdays game marked the
last appearance for Is members of
the Maryland team in Byrd Sta
dunn. New Years Day will mark
their last appearance on any col
legiate gridiron.
Among the top-toughest to re-

Fairfax Board Votes
To Oppose Refund Of
Trailer Camp Fees

The Fairfax County Board of
Supervisors plans to oppose efforts
of trailer camp operators who seek
refunds of license fees that have
been ruled invalid.
The supervisors yesterday, by q
vote of 5-to-2 with one member
not voting, instructed Common
wealth's Attorney Hugh B. Marsh
to contest suits that seek rebate.
Three suits have been filed for
refund of trailer camp license fees
since the Virginia Supreme Court
lof Appeals decision earlier this
month invalidating the county's
trailer camp ordinance.
Carper Charges Unfairness.
G. Wallace Carper, board chair
man, said he believes 1t unfair to
keep the license fees of those oper-
ators who paid. while the opera
tors who contested the ordinance
never paid the fees. He voted
against opposing the refund suits,
as did Supervisor c. B. Runyon.
Mr.. Marsh said he doubted that
the supervisors had the right to
refund the fees, unless the ques-
tion was decided in court.
The county provided $4,000 in
this years budget to repay the
license fees in case the ordinance
was inyalidated. The ordinance
was adopted for 1850 and 1851.
Suits asking refunds have been
filed so far by the Harmony Place
Tourist Park. for $4.750; Woodley
Hills Trailer Camp. $500, and
the Pine Lawn Tourist Court.
$4,000.
Assessment Charges Curbed.
The supervisors agreed to make
an offer to buy back the old aims
house on Route so. Their offer
is to rent the property with the
right to buy at $4,000. It is pro-
posed to use the building and the
IA surrounding acres for school
