1976] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 69 ment of Pharmacognosy and Pharmacology, Medical Center, Geoffrey A. Cordell, Assistant Professor of Pharmacology, Medical Center, and Masaru Ogura, Research Associate in the Department of Pharmacognosy and Pharmacology, Medical Center, inventors; developed under the sponsorship of the National Cancer Institute. Inventions 6 through 11 above were reported by University Patents, Inc., to have commercial potential. University Patents, Inc., has concluded a search on item number 8, and a patent application has been filed because of a May 21, 1976, statutory bar. (An abstract of this work appeared in The Journal of Dairy Science in 1975.) The University Patent Committee recommends that the rights of the University in these ideas be transferred to the University of Illinois Foundation, subject to the rights of the sponsors, if any. The committee also recommends that the Foundation distribute to the inventors 15 percent of net income received by it, after payment of any costs and expenses of securing a patent and of development and administration, subject where applicable to prior contracted obligations of the University with Control Data Corporation dated March 12, 1976 (approved by the Board of Trustees February 18, 1976). In ideas involving multiple inventors, the parties involved have agreed to equal sharing of the distributed income as described above. 12. Sealing Silicon to Glass—-Joseph T. Verdeyen, Professor of Electrical Engineering, Urbana, Max J. Helix, Graduate Research Assistant in the Gaseous Electronics Laboratory, Urbana, and Keith A. Kuehl, Glass Blower II in Electrical Engineering, Urbana, inventors; developed under the sponsorship of the Energy Research and Development Administration through a subcontract with Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. University Patents, Inc., does not recommend that the subject disclosure be transferred to the University of Illinois Foundation or that an attempt be made to obtain a release of the rights from the sponsor. Accordingly, the University Patent Committee recommends that the rights of the University in this invention be released to the sponsor. 13. Decoding Technique for Multi-line Parallel Addressing of Matrix Displays Which Are Driven through Matrix Decoders — Donald L. Bitzer, Director of Computer-based Education Research Laboratory and Professor of Electrical Engineering, Urbana, Paul T. Tucker, Research Engineer in Computer-based Education Research Laboratory, Urbana, and J. Richard Flood, Research Engineer, Regional Health Resources Center, Urbana, inventors. University Patents, Inc., reported that it is doubtful that patent coverage of any significance could be obtained on this concept. The University Patent Committee therefore recommends that the rights of the University in this invention be released to the inventors, subject to prior contractual obligations of the University with Control Data Corporation dated March 12, 1976. On motion of Mr. Howard, these recommendations were approved. Distribution of Potent Income (22) University Patents, Inc., which services patentable ideas for the University of Illinois Foundation, has given a nonexclusive license to Magnavox Company to make, have made, use, lease, sell, or otherwise transfer apparatus manufactured under the following ten inventions: 1. Flexible Surface Disk for Magnetic Recorders with Central Pneumatic Orifice, also known as Flexible Surface Disc for Multi-transducer Computer Controlled Audio Record and Playback Devices, by Brian W. Voth, which was transferred to the Foundation on September 20, 1967, subject to the rights of the sponsors, the Army and the Navy. 2. Transmitter and Receiver for the Transmission of Digital Data over Standard Television Channels, by John E. Stifle, Donald L. Bitzer, Michael Johnson, and
