PLAQUE IN ILLINOIS SURGICAL INSTITUTE FOR CHILDREN (10) The Executive Dean of the Chicago Colleges recommends placing a plaque in the Illinois Surgical Institute for Children, a unit of the Research and Educational Hospitals, as a permanent record of the establishment of that Institute by the State Department of Public Welfare and the University of Illinois, and in recognition of the financial and other support given it by the Chicago Chapter of Rotary International and the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. 1 T h e following wording for this plaque is recommended: " T o promote the worthy endeavor of restoring to health and happiness the physically handicapped children of the state, the Department of Public Welfare of Illinois and the University of Illinois gratefully acknowledge the efforts and contributions of the Illinois Elks and Rotarians to the Illinois Surgical Institute for Children." Since the names of Director Brandon and Doctor Thomas have been intimately associated with this enterprise, it is further recommended that their names be included on the plaque. I concur in these recommendations and recommend that the Physical Plant Department be authorized to install an appropriate plaque.

On motion of Mr. Jensen, this recommendation was adopted.

'Through the initiative of Director Rodney H. Brandon of the Department of Public Welfare, Dr. H. B. Thomas, Director of the Illinois Surgical Institute for Children, and Dean D. J. Davis of the College of Medicine, the Rotarians and Elks made contributions toward a temporary operating budget for the Illinois Surgical Institute for Children. This budget was later absorbed by the Department of Public Welfare. The Rotarians have also made other contributions, such as equipment for the physical recreation room.
