ton by the local Board Of Con-
troll before deciding future
strategy.
The Board of Control. COM
posed OF representatives Of

ton closer than Herndon TO the

The university's Board OF

The Board Of Visitors said It
wanted a decision By December
81 from the Board Of Control
because the offer Of q free tract
az Herndon expires on that
day.
Mr.. Smith said that his
group considers both sides in
adequate for future growth.
He said the two sites probably
would be surrounded by hous-
ing Developments. prohibiting
acquisition Of land for expan-
sion.
Mr.. Smith also said that
since the Herndon site is free
and budgets are tight" In
Northern Virginia. his COM
mittee could see no sense in
buying a site.
Harrison Mann, head OF the
Board of Control, said either OF
the sites recommended by his
board would have to be pur-
chased. He said the money
would have 10 come from the

Mr.. Mann was not sure the

but he said the board has power
to condemn property.
He said the Board of Con-
troll will meet within the next
two weeks to decide which site
IL will recommend to the
localities and TO the Board
Of Visitors.
Mr.. Mann said he considered
either Of the locations adequate
for q college OF any size. He
added that both are In the
geographic center OF the 10th
District and that the con-
venient location" would be
cheaper in the long run than
a gift OF land farther out. from
the standpoint Of time and cost
of transportation.

$50 acres except in a highly ur-
BANKED area" There is plenty
