EMERGENCY REPAIRS TO ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AT CHICAGO CIRCLE CAMPUS (32) An electrical failure which lasted approximately two hours occurred at 2 :00 a.m., December 17, 1966, at the Chicago Circle campus. T h e failure apparently occurred adjacent to a splice in one of the main feeder cables located in a manhole adjacent to Phase I I construction, and which appears to have shifted toward the excavation. T h e load on this cable was switched to the standby feeder cable, also located in the manhole. In order to restore permanent service with a minimum delay, emergency action was authorized and the Gust K. Newberg Construction Co., Chicago, was requested to make the necessary repairs on the basis of costs plus 15 per cent on work incurred by his forces and 5 per cent for work by subcontractors, with the understanding that the cost of the corrective work will be assessed to the responsible parties upon completion of the investigation. The corrective work which may cost in the neighborhood of $20,000 is in process and will be completed about February 1, 1967. In the interim, further investigative work is in process to determine accurately the cause and the responsibility for the cable failure. This report is submitted for confirmation of the above action.

EMPLOYMENT OF W O M E N , UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS, 1 9 6 6 - 6 7 (33) During the November meeting of the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, a question was raised in regard to the number of women employed by the University. The following tables summarize the number and per cent of academic and nonacademic staff separately by sex and campus. In each table the total University figures are also shown, fractional percentages have been dropped. Table I shows the full-time equivalent number and per cent of academic staff by rank, campus, and total. The percentage figures shown within each rank are not cumulative. Positions under the column labelled "other academic" include lecturers, assistant librarians, and in the case of the Urbana-Champaign campus, farm and home advisers. The per cent of women is generally lower at the full professorship and higher at the "other academic" level. T h e latter category includes home advisers and librarians. T h e figure for women in the categories of assistant and instructor are
