138 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [October 21 needy students in the Urbana departments of the University. This fund will be handled in the simplest way possible. Loans will be made, upon the recommendation of the Dean of Men or the Dean of Women and approval of the Comptroller, for amounts not to exceed $50 to any individual, for a short period of time, upon the security of a note signed by the student in the form used by the University for other student loan funds. N o interest is to be charged to maturity, and after maturity the interest rate will be six per cent. T h e Faculty Committee offers the Board of Trustees the notes in its possession which cover these loans. I recommend acceptance of this offer and the establishment of a loan fund to be subject to the conditions indicated. On motion of Mrs. Hopkins, this gift was accepted, and the recommendation concerning the administration of the fund was adopted. JOHN PHILIP SOUSA MEMORIAL LIBRARY OF BAND MUSIC (13) A report of the gift of the late John Philip Sousa's entire library of band music, received during the summer from John Philip Sousa, Jr., on behalf of the family of the world-famous band conductor and composer. This collection, comprising forty-two trunks of material, is the finest library of band music in the United States and perhaps in the world. It was the expressed wish of Mr. Sousa that upon his death his library should go to the University of Illinois Band. In view of the international fame of Mr. Sousa and his band, and considering the many requests for his library, it is a distinction and an honor to the University of Illinois to receive this library. T h e collection includes Mr. Sousa's conductor's stand, which will be a memorial feature of the library. I recommend that in accepting this gift the Board designate the collection as the Sousa Memorial Library. On motion of Mrs. Hopkins, this recommendation was adopted. PHOTOGRAPHS OF MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY (14) A report that the Library has received from Mr. J. O. Weber, of the Weber Studio, Champaign, a collection consisting of 219 large autographed photographs of members of the University Senate and faculty. This report was received for record.
