memorandum which Dean Gates left with me. As the houses are all now rented, we shall have to decide rather quickly in order to get possession of them. Yours truly,

JAMES M. WHITE

Supervising Architect It is proposed to house eight students and a chaperon at 806 South Sixth Street; eleven students and a chaperon at 504 Goodwin Avenue; and twelve students and a chaperon at 502J4 Goodwin Avenue—a total of thirtyone students and three chaperons. It is proposed that each student shall pay the University $1.00 a week without heat; $1.25 with heat, and that the rooms shall be assigned by the Dean of Women on application from the students. The house should be controlled by the Committee on Cooperative Houses, of which the Dean of Women and the President of the Woman's League are ex-officio members. The houses are to be managed on a plan similar to that used at the house at 710 Nevada Street during the last academic year. They are to be furnished by the efforts of the Woman's League and the Girls' Athletic Association and interested Woman's Clubs through gifts, loans, and low rentals of furniture. Certain repairs will have to be made to the houses. They are already being painted.

On motion of Mrs. Busey, the communication was adopted, and the was authorized to assign the houses general management and oversight of

plan proposed in the above President of the University for this purpose, under the the Dean of Women.

DEAR MR. BROWNE:

I wish to bring to your attention a matter relating to anatomical material loaned to medical and dental students in gross anatomy. At the beginning of the year each medical student receives a disarticulated skeleton (value about $10) and each dental student receives a skull and certain bones relating to the head and neck regions (value about $5). It not infrequently happens that some of the material is either lost or broken, or a student fails to return the entire set. Since this material is of considerable value, I feel that the University ought to have some guarantee against such loss. To this end I recommend that all students taking gross anatomy be required to make a deposit of $10 in the case of medical men or $g in the
