WITNESS my hand and the seal of The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois this 27th day of April, 1936. H. E. CUNNINGHAM [SEAL] Secretary APPROPRIATION FOR NATIONAL Y O U T H ADMINISTRATION EXPOSITION (17) The National Youth Administration of Illinois will present an "Exposition of Youth" at the International Amphitheatre in Chicago May 5 to 10,1936, and the University has been asked to prepare an exhibit for this Exposition. It is impossible to estimate accurately the expenses of this exhibit at the present time. The indications are that it will cost not less than $300 and possibly more. If the Board of Trustees wishes to authorize an exhibit by the University at this Exposition, I recommend that an appropriation of $500, or so much thereof as may be necessary, be made from the General Reserve Fund for this purpose. On motion of M r . Barr, this appropriation was made, by the following vote: Aye, M r . Barr, Mr. Barrett, M r s . Freeman, Mr. Karraker, Mr. Mayer, M r s . Plumb, M r . Pogue, M r . Wieland, M r . Williams; no, n o n e ; absent, M r . H o r n e r , D r . Meyer. RECOMMENDATIONS FROM FACULTY COMMITTEE ON PATENTS Mr. Barrett presented, for the Committee on Patents, a recommendation from the Faculty Committee on Patents t h a t : 1. The University secure British patents on the American patent of the Johnstone process covering the removal of sulphur dioxide from waste gases (Cases 6 and 7) ; and 2. The Board release to Dr. C. S. Marvel, of the Department of Chemistry, the right to apply for patents on organic phosphorus compounds which he has recently developed. There appears no immediate likelihood of practical applications of this discovery on account of the cost of the products. On motion of M r . Barrett, these recommendations were adopted. REPORT OF TREASURER Mr. Mayer, for the Finance Committee, presented the following report from the T r e a s u r e r of the University of receipts and disbursements from J u l y 1, 1935, to March 9, 1936, submitted by him in accordance with the by-laws of the Board of Trustees and transmitted to the Finance Committee for examination and report.
