1925] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS GRADUATION "WITH HONORS" 229 (4) O n M a y 17, 1924, the Board made a provision for the awarding of the bachelor's degree with "Honorable Mention" and with "High Honors."

SOUTHERN PACIFIC STOCK (5) At a meeting of the Board on January 17, 1925 (page 144) it was voted that the Southern Pacific Stock be sold when it reached 112. I recommend that this action be rescinded. O n motion of M r . Barr, this recommendation w a s concurred in, and the action of January 17, 1925, fixing the sale-price of this stock at 112 w a s rescinded. PLOTTING ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION TRACT (6) Referring to the instructions of the Board (Minutes, July 12, 1922, page 8) to report on the proposal to plot the property acquired from the Athletic Association, I beg leave now to report that the scheme is that proposed and approved at the last meeting of the Board (Minutes, page 220) and ask that this statement may be accepted as a report. This report was received for record. LEAVE OF ABSENCE FOR PROFESSOR GORDON WATKINS (7) A recommendation that Dr. Gordon Watkins, Associate Professor of Economics, be granted leave of absence for one year, beginning September 1, 1925, without salary. O n motion of M r s . Grigsby, this leave w a s granted. LETTER WITH REGARD TO THE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL (8) Following the April meeting of the Board, I notified the various osteopaths of Champaign who had asked for permission to practice in the University Hospital of the policy adopted by the Board. In reply I received the following letter: 105 Co-Op Bldg., Champaign, 111., April 17, 1925 Mr. David Kinky, President, University of Illinois, Vrbana, Illinois Dear Sir: "Your letter of the 15th inst., was received. W e also note the fact that I have been refused permission to enter the University Hospital to practice m y profession. In view of that fact I wish to submit the following: "I am a graduate of a four year course of study of the Chicago College of Osteopathy, an institution chartered by the State of Illinois. As a result of m y course of study I have been admitted to examination by the State Board of this State. I took the regular examination of that board, passed it, and was admitted to practice m y profession in this state. In addition to that I hold a license to practice in the States of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Missouri, all of which permit the use of antiseptics, germicides anaesthetics and surgery. In m y general practice here in the Twin Cities I have occasion to care for not only townspeople but students and faculty members as well. In our general practice we handle not only the cases which by popular opinion are peculiar to m y profession but handle contagious and infectious cases as well. Our reports of quarantine and dismissal of cases from quarantine are accepted by the health officers of the Twin Cities as well as of the University of Illinois. Evidently we are able to determine what is within ourfieldand are able to get our results in our way. W e feel that we would be able to determine whether or not cases which we wish to take to the hospital are within ourfieldjust the same as a regular physician refers his cases to a general surgeon or a specialist in some line.
