592 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [June 12 University of Illinois—Willard Airport Expansion T h e president reported on difficulties with regard to the multiple sources of funds needed to complete the planned development of the airport, indicating some optimism based on recent events. He noted especially the action of the Finance Committee of the Champaign County Board of Supervisors on the previous day, a unanimous vote to endorse support at the level of $4 million from county funds. Such support must be supplemented by institutional funds from the University and by State and Federal support. T h e board will be kept informed.

Each expressed support for the meeting and its benefits to them in their service as trustees. Federal Legislation with Regard to South Africa Mrs. Shepherd referred to legislation now in the House of Representatives, H.B. 4868, having to do with sanctions related to the South African government. She suggested information about such a bill would be of interest to individuals who might wish to support such action.
