PROCEEDINGS OE THE BOARD OE TRUSTEES.

APPOINTMENT OE DR. E'. E. HAYHURST.

119

President James stated that he had appointed Dr. E. E. Hayhurst teacher in the department of nervous anatomy in the College of Medicine for the second semester of 1910-1911, at a salary of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00), subject to the.approval of the board. It was voted that this appointment be approved, and that the appropriation involved be made.

ADJUSTMENT OE COMPTROLLER'S SALARY.

President James called attention to the fact that it has been customary to charge four hundred dollars of the comptrollers salary to the College of .Medicine, but that by some oversight this item was not provided for in the budget of the College of Medicine for the year 19101911. It was voted that the said sum of four hundred dollars ($400.00) of the comptroller's salary be charged to the budget of the College of Medicine.

ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION EOR INCIDENTALS.

At the request of the comptroller, presented by President James, an additional appropriation of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) was made for incidentals in the College of Medicine.

FINISHING LINCOLN HALL.

President James called attention to the great importance of completing the top story of Lincoln Hall, if at all possible, in accordance with the plans originally adopted, and to the fact that funds were unavailable for this purpose because the Board of Trustees had directed that there should be charged against the appropriation for the erection of Lincoln Hall certain sums which might with equal propriety be charged to other funds^ such as those available for the extension of the heating and lighting plant, for power, water, and telephone connections, and for walks and fire protection. I t was voted that sums of money thus far assigned from the Lincoln Hall fund for the extension of the heating and lighting plant, for power, water and telephone connections, and for walks and fire protection, to an amount approximating eight thousand dollars v ($8,000.00), be reassigned to the Lincoln Hall fund; and, further, that the supervising architect be directed to proceed with the completion of the top story of Lincoln Hall as nearly as may be in accordance with the original plans and specifications.

OPTION ON SOUTHEAST CORNER OE BACK FARM.

President James called attention to the fact that the appropriation bills passed by the General Assembly, and now before' the Governor for his approval, contain an item for twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00)
