Since that time various additions have been approved by the Board, making the present total of the contract, including certain minor adjustments, $68,106.97. Various additional work not included in the original contract because of uncertainty as to cost of other changes and availability of materials, is now found possible within the limits of available funds and available materials. Fixed price bids on this work have been submitted by the Mueller Construction Company and have been checked by the Physical Plant Department, representing a net additional increase to the contract of $18,726, the resulting contract total being $86,812.97. The Executive Dean and the Director of the Physical Plant Department request approval of these additions to the contract. T h e Comptroller recommends approval, and I concur. The Comptroller commented on this item. On motion of Mr. Nickell, these additions to the contract were authorized as recommended. At this point, Dr. Luken took his place with the Board. APPROPRIATION FOR PUBLICATION OF INFORMATION PAMPHLET (18) T h e Director of Public Information has recommended the publication by the University of a pamphlet of information about the University for distribution to University visitors, especially those who come to the campus for conventions and meetings. The pamphlet can also be used for distribution to Army and Navy Trainees. It would acquaint visitors and trainees with the character and organization of the University and its work and would provide them with something they could send to others. It is estimated that it will cost about $250 to print 10,000 copies of such a pamphlet. I recommend that an appropriation of $250 be made from the General Reserve Fund to the Public Information Office for this purpose. On motion of Mrs. Grigsby, this appropriation was made, by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Davis, Mr. Fornof, Mrs. Grigsby, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Karraker, Mr. Livingston, Dr. Luken, Mr. McKelvey, Mr. Nickell; no, none; absent, Mr. Green, Dr. Meyer.
