Prepare New Blast

Before that figure can be
agreed upon the coaches and
the NcAA will have to vote on
its acceptance. The vote prob
ably will not be held before
the NCAA business session on
Wednesday.
Meanwhile. the baseball
coaches are preparing another
blast at the major leagues about
signing college players before
their eligibility Is used up. They
admit they have no big squawk
when a player is offered q huge
bonus-$25.000 or more--but
they think that college players
who aren't worth such big
payments should be allowed TO
stay In school for the full four
year period.
In another acton the eight
Ivy League football coaches
have voted unanimously in
favor Of returning the goal
posts to the goal line In COL

The goal posts now are placed

Of the job" and ito establish a
proper relationship between the
salaries Of department heads
and their subordinates."
During the last two years, the
Governor noted, general pay

State employees out of discre-
tionary funds appropriated for
adjusting base rates Of pay.
While these adjustments were
being made. he said, salaries
Of department heads remained
frozen where they had been
fixed by law.

Initiated Master Plan
Mrs. wilkins initiated the

She believes a master land use
plan should be adopted and
only changed when it is to the
advantage Of the county as q
whole.
Mrs. wilkins also has been
credited by many county lead
ers with almost single handedly
pushing through the $40 mil.
lion sewer bond issue In 1853.
She also worked hard for the
recent school construction bond
issues.
She finds that being a county
board member is practically q
full-time job"
Husband Is Patient
The chairman said her hus-
band Donald, an attorney. has
been very patient. If he weren't
so patient and interested I
could not have done it."
Mr.. and Mrs. wilkins met
when they were going to Law
School at George Washington
University. They were married
in 1887. In 1888 she received
her bachelor Of laws degree
and her husband a master de-
gree at the same ceremony.
They have two children, a
daughter Gary Anne, an 1S-
year-old college student, and
a son John, a l4-year-old
ninth-grader at Falls Church
High School.
Mrs. wilkins said that 1858
may prove TO be the county's
most crucial year" She said it
may be determined this year
whether Fairfax County will
survive as a complete unit on
a sound financial basis"
The county board has asked
for State legislation which
would protect it from annexa-
ton and incorporation Of new
