APPROPRIATION TO THE DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY (5) Owing to the increase in the number of advanced students in Chemistry, the appropriation for expenses has proved inadequate, and Professor Adams is asking an additional appropriation. I, therefore, recommend an appropriation of ¥4,000 from the Reserve and Contingent Fund for general supplies for the Chemistry Department. On motion of Mrs. Grigsby, this appropriation was made, by the following vote: Aye, President Armstrong, Mr. Barr, Mrs. Busey, Mrs. Evans, M r . Fisher, Mrs. Grigsby, Mr. Simpson, Mr. Trees; no, none; absent, Mr. Blair, M r . Emmerson, Dr. Noble. APPROPRIATION FOR BENEFICIARY OF W. F. KAISER (6) W. F. Kaiser, Storekeeper in the Physical Plant, died April 2, 1929. The death benefit which accrued in his case amounts to $864. I recommend that this amount be appropriated from the Reserve and Contingent Fund and that the Comptroller be authorized to make payment to his beneficiary. O n motion of Mr. Trees, this recommendation was approved, by the following vote: Aye, President Armstrong, Mr. Barr, Mrs. Busey, Mrs. Evans, M r . Fisher, Mrs. Grigsby, Mr. Simpson, M r . Trees; no, none; absent, Mr. Blair, M r . Emmerson, Dr. Noble.

PURCHASE AND FRAMI NG OF PICTURES AND PORTRAITS FOR COLLEGE O F MEDICINE (9) Dean Davis requests permission to use $200 from the Contingent Fund of the College of Medicine for the purchase and framing of pictures and portraits of noted physicians and scientists, to be hung in the Research Laboratory and Library.
