ADJUSTMENT OF WINDSTORM D A M A G E IN T H E STADIUM (2) The Comptroller reports that the amount of $452.10 will be received from insurance companies as reimbursement for repairs on one of the ramp towers at the Stadium which was damaged during a windstorm last July. At the time of the damage the insurance agents advised that the repairs be made and the bills presented as a claim for reimbursement. The bills were paid by the Athletic Association. Proofs of loss have been made to the insurance companies and settlement will probably be received in the near future. I recommend that the full amount when received be appropriated to the Athletic Association as reimbursement for the expenses incurred in repairing the damage. O n motion of M r s . Evans, this appropriation w a s m a d e , b y the following vote: A y e , M r . Armstrong, M r s . Evans, M r s . Grigsby, M r s . Ickes, D r . Noble, M r . Trees, M r . W h a m ; no, none; absent, M r . Barr, M r . Blair, M r s . Busey, M r . Small. ADJUSTMENTS IN THE BUDGET OF THE DEPARTMENT O F ANIMAL H U S B A N D R Y (3) On recommendation o Dean Mumford, I recommend that: f (a) A balance of $1475.06 in the special appropriation for Nutrition Investigation made February 13, 1926, and remaining unexpended June 30, 1926, be reappropriated for the purposes of the original appropriation; (b) Unappropriated income of Animal Husbandry from sales for the year ending June 30, 1926, be appropriated to the department in accordance with the recommendation of the Dean for the following-purposes: Operation—$703.22 Equipment—$750.00 The balance under item (a) was inadvertently merged by the Business Office with the regular Animal Husbandry Funds and was applied on regular departmental requisitions during the closing days of the last fiscal year. Since this appropriation was made for a special purpose, the unexpended balance as of June 30 must be restored and held available for that purpose. Concerning item (b), at the end of the lastfiscalyear the Department of Animal Husbandry had an excess of receipts over budget estimates amounting to $1453.22. According to the University regulations this sum was carried forward on the books subject to appropriation. Its appropriation at this time is requested to offset in part the charges which must be brought forward against 1926-27 funds in order to restore the balance in the special appropriation under paragraph (a). On motion of Mrs. Grigsby, these appropriations were made, by the following vote: A y e , M r . Armstrong, M r s . Evans, M r s . Grigsby, Mrs. Ickes, Dr. Noble, Mr. Trees, Mr. W h a m ; no, none; absent, Mr. Barr, Mr. Blair, Mrs. Busey, Mr. Small. At this point, Mr. Barr took his place with the Board. ORDERLY IN THE DISPENSARY OF THE COLLEGE O F MEDICINE (4) I recommend that $1,500 be appropriated from the Reserve and Contingent Fund and assigned to the budget of the Dispensary of the College of Medicine to provide for the salary of an orderly. O n motion of M r s . Evans, this appropriation w a s m a d e b y the following vote: A y e , M r . Armstrong, M r . Barr, M r s . Evans, M r s . Grigsby, M r s . Ickes, D r . Noble, M r .
