d. T h e University will maintain and operate the building at its own expense, and keep it in good repair and condition inside and outside. It is understood that in assuming the obligation to maintain and operate the building, the University does not bind itself beyond its available financial resources. Except as otherwise expressly stated, it is understood that the phrase, "operate and maintain," in this agreement means, and is limited to maintenance of building and grounds, heat, janitor service, light, power, and water, but not gas used for research investigations, at no expense to the Department. T h e University reserves the power, as in the case of all other buildings maintained and operated by it, and of space heretofore provided the Surveys aforesaid, to make such reasonable rules and regulations concerning the use of said building as it may deem necessary, consistent with the purposes and objectives of the scientific Surveys. e. Nothing herein contained shall in any way affect the present occupancy of the State W a t e r Survey Division of the Department which is now being housed and will continue to be housed by the University in the Chemistry Building.

LEAVE O F A B S E N C E F O R MARY L O U I S E C H A S E (6) Miss Mary Louise Chase, Assistant State Leader of H o m e Advisers and Associate in the H o m e Economics Extension Service, applied for a leave of absence for six months from July I, 1938, on full pay. She is not eligible for a sabbatical leave of absence, under the statutes, but because she is on the E x tension staff and h e r salary is paid entirely from Federal funds, her case was submitted to the Graduate School Research Board along with others applying for sabbatical leaves during 1938-1939. T h e Research Board included her in its recommendations for leaves which were presented to the Board of Trustees at its meeting on February 11, 1938, but through an error her name was listed with those applying for leave of absence for a full year on one-half pay instead of as an applicant for leave of absence for one-half a year on full pay. Leaves of absence granted members of the Extension staff of the College of Agriculture, whose salaries are paid entirely from Federal funds, require approval by the United States Department of Agriculture. T h e Department is unable to approve a leave of absence with pay for travel in Europe, and therefore Miss Chase desires to take that part of her leave involving foreign travel without pay on her own time and at her own expense. T h e Dean of the College of Agriculture recommends, and I concur, that she be granted leave of absence for two months without pay from July 1, 1938, to August 31, 1938, and five months with full pay from September 1, 1938, to J a n u a r y 31, 1939, instead of the leave previously granted her.

On motion of Mr. Karraker, this leave was granted as recommended, and the record was corrected accordingly.

LEAVES O F A B S E N C E (7) A recommendation that the following leaves of absence be granted members of the staff for the reasons and periods and u n d e r the conditions indicated in each case:
