TRANSFER OF DUTIES O F VICE PRESIDENT FOR FINANCIAL AFFAIRS AND REDESIGNATJON O F CERTAIN OTHER OFFICERS (6) As the Trustees have known for some time, Herbert 0 . Farber, Vice President for Financial Affairs and Comptroller of the Board of Trustees, has elected to retire after more than thirty years of service to the University of Illinois. For some months we have been studying the most effective means of maintaining continuity and efficiency in business and financial operations subsequent to Mr. Farber's retirement. T h e Vice President for Planning and Allocation, Ronald W . Brady, has been central to these consultations and studies, and the Trustees have been kept informed of the progress of the analysis. It is Mr. Farber's intention to resign from the position of Comptroller of the Board of Trustees, effective July 31, 1973, and the Trustees today have before them the matter of electing a new comptroller. Mr, Farber will continue to retain certain University responsibilities on special assignment until September 30. I recommend that the Trustees act today to designate Mr. Farber as Comptroller of the Board of Trustees, emeritus, effective August 1, and Vice President for Financial Affairs, emeritus, effective October 1. Further, I present the following recommendations having to do with the future alignment of responsibilities of the Vice Presidency for Financial Affairs. I recommend that, effective August 1, 1973, the Vice President for Planning and Allocation assume all previous duties and responsibilities of the Vice President for Financial Affairs. Further, I concur in the recommendation of Mr. Brady that the following changes in title of other officers in the present office of the Vice President for Financial Affairs be approved effective August 1, 1973: Robert David Franks, presently Assistant to the Vice President for Financial Affairs, become Assistant to the Vice President for Planning and Allocation.

All succeeding appointments to the Plant Pathology Committee will be for three-year

terms.
