1973] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 267 honor of a pioneer entrepreneur and public servant of the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois. The preserve, acquired by the University in 1968 for the Chicago Circle campus and located at Glenview just outside Chicago, consists of some five acres of land which contains the last known tract of virgin prairie in the northeastern part of Illinois. The native flowering plants and grasses, some extremely rare, are a valuable resource to students of ecology, entomology, population biology, and plant and animal taxonomy. The facility which is dedicated today will protect the prairie and make it available for scientific, educational, and limited public visitation uses. Thus the University of Illinois gladly joins with the Center's benefactor, John Woodworth Leslie, grandson of J. H. Woodworth, in preserving a priceless parcel of the Illinois prairie. We mark this occasion with gratitude to Mr, Leslie for his gift, to Mrs, Bernice Popelka who inspired and led a conservation effort and to Messrs. Gunnar Peterson and Jeffrey Short, Jr., of the Open Lands Project who collaborated with her in saving the area. On motion of Mr. Forsyth, this resolution was approved.
