UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

461

follows: Aye, President Armstrong, Mr. Barr, Mrs. Busey, Mrs. Evans, Mr. Fisher, Mrs. Grigsby, Dr. Noble, Mr. Simpson, Mr. Trees; no, none; absent, Mr. Blair, Mr. Emmerson. MATTERS PRESENTED BY PRESIDENT KINL.EY The Board considered the following matters presented by the President of the University: APPROPRIATION FOR EXPENSE BUDGET OF LEGAL. COUNSEL

(1) An appropriation of $100 was made in the budget for the traveling expenses of the Legal Counsel of the University. By m y specific direction he has taken several trips not anticipated when the amount above referred to was appropriated. I therefore recommend an additional appropriation of $ 150 for travel in the budget of the Legal Counsel, from the Reserve and Contingent Fund. O n motion of D r . Noble, this appropriation w a s m a d e , b y the following vote: A y e , President Armstrong, M r . Barr, M r s . Busey, M r s . Evans, M r . Fisher, M r s . Grigsby, D r . Noble, M r . Simpson; no, none; absent, M r . Blair, M r . E m m e r s o n , M r . Trees.

APPROPRIATION FOR TYPE FOR SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM

(2) A request from the Director of the School of Journalism for additional funds to purchase typographical equipment. This additional equipment is needed because of the increase in the number of students registered in the course known as the History and Practice of Printing and Publishing. I recommend that an appropriation of $425, or so much thereof as may be necessary, be made from the Reserve and Contingent Fund for this purpose. O n motion of M r s . Grigsby, this appropriation w a s m a d e , b y the following vote: A y e , President Armstrong, M r . Barr, M r s . Busey, M r s . Evans, M r . Fisher, M r s . Grigsby, D r . Noble, M r . Simpson, M r . Trees; no, none; absent, M r . Blair, M r . E m m e r s o n .

APPROPRIATION FOR DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGY (MEDICINE)

(3) As has been previously reported, the increase in the number of students admitted to the first-year class of the College of Medicine has made it necessary to provide additional funds for certain of the departments. Provision has already been made for the departments of Anatomy, Chemistry, and Pathology and Bacteriology. Dean Davis reports that the Department of Physiology will need approximately $600 a year more for supplies and equipment and $2400 for an additional full-time instructor on account of the increased enrollment—a total of $3000. However, this year only one-half of that amount will be required for the work of the second semester and the Dean requests an appropriation of $ 1500 to be available February 1, 1930. I recommend that Ji 500 be appropriated from the Reserve and Contingent Fund to the Department of Physiology of the College of Medicine for this purpose. 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 , President Armstrong, M r . Barr, M r s . Busey, M r s . Evans, M r . Fisher, M r s . Grigsby, D r . Noble, M r . Simpson, M r . Trees; no, none; absent, M r . Blair, M r . E m m e r s o n . SOCIAL FACILITIES FOR STUDENTS (4) It has been suggested that it would be a good plan to provide in some of our buildings a place or places where young men and women might visit with each other during their leisure time. I recommend that the President of the University be authorized to make some such arrangements at his discretion and to employ chaperons. I request further that an appropriation of $500, or so much thereof as may be necessary, be made from the Reserve and Contingent Fund to pay the expenses of such chaperons.
