(5) Dean Davis informs m e that there is at the Medical School a group of pictures of graduating classes, one for each class, dating back many years. They have become so numerous that i is difficult tofindwall space for them. t H e suggests that these pictures be reduced to a uniform size and placed in the Library on exhibition. H e states that the expense would be about $200 and asks an appropriation for this purpose. After considering the matter carefully, I a m of the opinion that the preservation of these pictures is a matter of historical interest and importance to the University College of Medicine, and, therefore, recommend an appropriation of $200 from the Reserve and Contingent Fund for the above purpose. O n motion of M r s . Ickes, this appropriation w a s made, by the following vote: A y e , M r . Armstrong, M r . Barr, M r s . Evans, M r s . Grigsby, M r s . Ickes, Dr. Noble, M r .
