I960] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 7\ •A a price of $6,800, or $1,34 per square foot. This is a negotiated price based on appraisals and is in line 'with the price policy authorized by the Committee on Buildings and Grounds in negotiations for land acquisition. Funds will be available m either the state capital appropriations to the University f° r 1959-61 or in the construction account for the residence hall for graduate students, J concur. On motion of Mr. Harewood, the purchase of this property was authorized, as recommended, by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Harewood, Mr, Johnston, Mr, Pogue, Mr, Swain, Mrs, Watkins, Mr, Wilkins, Mr. Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Qenient, Mr. Herrick, Mr. Stratton; Mr, Hughes was present during most of the meeting but was absent when this matter was considered and the vote taken. RECOMMENDATIONS OF T H E UNIVERSITY PATENT COMMITTEE (2) The University Patent Committee submits, with the concurrence of the Chairman of the University Research Board, the following recommendations relating to inventions by members of the staff, 1. Modification of Rainville test of bone-conduct ion hearing— Charles Lightfoot, Associate Professor of Otolaryngology, inventor. This invention is a procedure for the testing of bone-conduction hearing. The test consists of determining tlie lowest level of bone-conduction noise which interferes with the hearing by the car under test of an air conducted signal and comparing that level with the level of bone-conduct ion noise which has the same interfering effect on a normal ear. Tlie invention was referred to the University of Illinois Foundation for investigation and the Foundation lias reported that there is little likelihood of commercial possibilities. Accordingly, the Committee on Patents recommends release to tlie inventor. 2. Cage for solitary housing of large numbers of mice — Dr. Walter S. Moos, Associate Professor of Radiology; Dr. J. B. Fuller, Associate Professor of Pathology; and Dr. J. C. Plagge, Professor of Anatomy, all of the College of Medicine, inventors. Most biological experiments and studies involving mice require observations on large numbers of these animals. Some of these experiments are made difficult due 1o many mice being in one cage, and the inventors have designed and tested the subject cage. It is the best judgment of the heads of the department and all other University officials concerned that this equipment will have such highly specialized and such limited use that it would have no commercial possibilities. Accordingly, the Patent Committee has recommended release of the invention to the inventors. Distribution of Net Income of Patentable Inventions The University of Illinois Foundation reports that its work on the following inventions by University staff members turned over to it has developed to the point that patent applications are pending and in some cases patents have been issued. The Foundation will proceed to negotiate with prospective licensees as patents are issued, but before doing so the Foundation requests instructions on distribution of the royalties. The Committee on Patents recommends that 15 per tent of the net proceeds of any royalties received on these inventions be paid to the inventors, and that in those cases where there are two or more inventors it be left to them how they will divide the 15 per cent: Planar logarithmetically periodic antenna structures — R. H. DuHammel, inventor ^.on-planar logarithmetically periodic antenna structures — D. E. Isbell, inventor Uidirectional equiangular spiral antenna —J. D. Dyson, inventor b?E Penodic dipole arrays —D. E. Isbell, inventor -^w circularly polarised omnidirectional antenna — P. E. Mayes and J. D. Dyson, inventors L°S-periodic resonant-V arrays — P . E. Mayes and R. L. Carrel, inventors "iN-channel TV and FM receiving antenna —R, L. Carrel and P. E. Mayes, inventorsm a n d r uJuecProcessing method —N. L. VanDemark, A. D, Sharma, and "• W, Salisbury, inventors
