Long Spell Without Rain
Brings Fire and Floods
To British Columbia

VANCOUVER, BIC, "a spell
of hot, rainless Notwithstanding
so days with only a small amount
of precipitation-has brought fire
and floods to British Columbia.
Almost 1000 acres of forest on
the Sechelt Peninsula, so miles
northwest of Vancouver, have
been destroyed by fire.
p. B. Taylor, chief forester,
said the fire is 1.-The worst this
year, and there's every indication
it will increase in size"
The tinder-dry condition of the
woods prompted Ray Williston,
lands and forests minister, to
clamp a restricted closure on the
Vancouver forest district.
A steadily advancing threat OF
floods, due to the spring runoff,
endangered other sections of the
province as diking crews and pa
trolls kept on the job around the
clock.

trying to hire him away, APP

Maryland football players, who
landed at Friendship Airport last
night. were given message from
Tatum aboard their plane.

better offer than Maryland's
latest proposal and that he
would stay unless North Caro-
lina's offer Is much better"

Giese also told the players he
has agreed to accept the position
of head coach at the University

Oklahoma end. who has been
ITatum's assistant since 1913, will
take over for veteran Rex En-
right, who will devote his full
time TO his job as athletic
director.
Giese's formal appointment
awaits a meeting OF the South
Carolina Athletic Council. The
meeting in turn awaits Enright's
return by auto from Miami, in
doubt at the moment.
Tatum was delayed until late
