This project is to include 10 to 12 championship tennis courts, lighting of a portion of the courts, permanent spectator seating for approximately 500, and the potential for adding portable bleachers for special matches. This facility will be directly associated with and an integral part of the indoor tennis facility. T h e president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the project be approved; that the appropriation be confirmed by the Board of Trustees; and that the Athletic Association be requested to remit that amount to the University. T h e existing agreement with Kessler, Merci and Associates, Inc., for the indoor tennis facility will be amended to provide for the additional professional architectural and engineering services. T h e cost of the outdoor tennis facility is estimated to be $300,000.

On motion of Mrs. Day, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Dr. Donoghue, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Howard,
