not possible for the Department to absorb all of his work during the first semester without some additional expense; consequently, leave for the balance of the semester was approved on a part-pay basis, and the salary of his temporary replacement was deducted from Professor Lee's salary. The original leave and the extension here recommended are in accordance with the rules of the Board of Trustees. EMMET B. M C N A T T , Assistant Professor of Economics, leave without pay for the second semester of 1942-1943, or March 1 through August 31, 1943, for service with the Sixth Regional Area of the National W a r Labor Board. This is a position in which Professor McNatt can render valuable professional service to the Federal Government. Because of the decreased enrollment, granting this leave will be a convenience to the University as well as a service to the Government. HARVEY W. HUEGY, Assistant Professor of Business Organization and Operation, leave without pay for the second semester of 1942-1943, for service as Economist and Marketing Expert in the Office of Price Administration, Washington, D.C. This is an extension of leave without pay previously granted by the Board (May 16, 1942) for the first semester of the current year. Because of reduced enrollment during the second semester, it is not necessary to recall Professor Huegy at this time, as the Department can combine sections or otherwise reassign them to provide for his courses. T h e extension of this leave is for the convenience of the University as well as a service to the Government. D. P H I L I P LOCKLIN, Professor of Economics, leave of absence without pay from February 1 through August 31, 1943, for continuation of his services to the Federal Board of Investigation and Research.

MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS OF UNIVERSITY STAFF MEMBERS (4) At the meeting of the Board on December 15, 1942 (Minutes, page 222), I submitted a memorandum on the program of medical examinations of University staff members which the Board had previously authorized subject to the availability of funds.
