Tawes Enters
Governor Race

j. Willard Tawes, Maryland
state controller, this week jumped
into the Democratic race for gov
ernor. Mr.. Tawes planned to run
in 1854, but stepped aside in favor
Of Dr. II. &. tCurly) Byrd, former
president of the University of
Maryland. DR.. Byrd has already
filed as candidate along with
Mr.. Tawes for 1858.
Mr.. Tawes made his announce
ment at a testimonial dinner in
Maryland. Most of the guests
were Eastern Shore Democrats or
members of the faction opposing
Mayor Thomas D'Alesandro's city
administration in Baltimore.
There Is speculation that Mayor
D'Alesandro, rumored to be inter
ested in a nomination for govern
or himself, now may switch in
stead and run for the senate.
Mr.. Tawes was introduced to
the dinner party as "the one Dem
ocrat in the State of Maryland
who can unite all factions of the
party"
In his televised speech, he de-
plored the party's lack of unity
in Maryland. Noting that advisors
had warned him he was making
his bid toe early in the race, he
said IF anybody wants to start
shootin, here's your target, boys.

The Board Says:

The "bill of particulars" con-
firmed by Superintendent Forbes
Norris as the points of differences
between him and the school board
as the reason for not reappoint-
ing him in July were described
by board members as symphonic
tic only and illustrations Of a gen.
eral situation existing over a long
period"
One member, Rose Kramer,
said that in the last year she had
documented many points against
DR.. Norris educational leadership
and administrative ability but re-
fused to cite them, except for a
general statement that DR.. Nor
ris' annual budgets did not have
clear-cut educational goals.
She had only kept the record
for her own personal enlight-
ment, she said in order to be able
to get an objective evaluation of
the superintendent abilities over
a long period of time.
President Lathrop Smith said
that the question of DIR. Norris
ability was not raised on a few
points but on the basis of the last
two years experience by the
board.
The board had carefully review
ed its position and had taken a
stand so that any possibility now
of the renewal of the superintend-
ent's contract on July 81 would
reveal this board as being ire
sponsibIe" Mr.. Smith said.
He also felt sure that the board
would have found a suitable sup
erintendent as DR.. Norris success
sor by the expiration date. Care
would be taken to find some one
who would meet the require
ments of the board in administra-
tive competence, judgment and
leadership.
Member Willard McGraw said
that that the boards decision
against Norris was the only one
it could have made for the best
interest Of the school system.

New Deal
Asked on
Trailers

An amendment to the up
county zoning ordnance was
urged this week by two trailer
park operators who said the
current law discriminates
against their industry.
Robert Milliron, operator of
the Middlebrook Trailer Park,
on Old 240 three miles north of
Gaithersburg, asked the County
Council for special exemption
to amend the coming laws. Will
liam Cross, operator of the Cider
Barrel Park, about one mile north
of Mr.. Milliron's, spoke in sup
port of the change.
They pointed out that the cur
rent up-count coming ordinance
has no provisions for a trailer
coach park. Each said the alb
Sence of such provisions has pre-
vented him from expansion.
Mr.. Milliron said he hoped to
purchase 20 acres to add to his
present 31a.acre trailer tract. But
unless the law is rewritten, he
cannot enlarge his park, he said.
MIR. Cross said he also hopes to
expand his 19-trailer park.
The coming restrictions permit
them to operate what they al
read own, but prevent them from
adding more trailer spaces, they
charged.
Each said his property is shell
tered from public view.
William B. Mckinney, acting
planning engineer, earlier recon-,
mended to the up-county Planning
Commission that there is a need
for trailer parks in the upper
county.
Mr.. Mckinney said the need is
caused by % substantial build
ing and road construction in the
county, with additional roads and
buildings land perhaps a dam
contemplated in the future; (2)
existence of military installations
in the upper county for defense
of Washington, and 80 retired
persons, moving slowly around
