O n m o t i o n of M r . H a r e w o o d , t h e s e p u r c h a s e s w e r e a u t h o r i z e d , as recommended. HEADSHIP OF DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL AND INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING (23) T h e Dean of the College of Engineering recommends the appointment of Dr. Helmut H . Korst as Professor of Mechanical Engineering on indefinite tenure and Head of the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering beginning September 1, 1962, at an annual salary of $18,000 on "A" basis. The appointment is recommended by a search committee 1 and has the concurrence of the Executive Vice-President and Provost and the Dean of the Graduate College, and is to fill the vacancy created by the appointment of Professor Norman A. Parker as Vice-President for the Chicago Undergraduate Division. In submitting the recommendation, the Dean has made the following supporting statement: "Professor Korst is a scholar of international eminence. In my travels both in the United States and abroad, his name is frequently mentioned as one of our most able faculty members. Not only is he an outstanding scholar, but he also has proven himself to be an able teacher, interested in the students in the department as individuals, and a counselor who is highly respected by his fellow faculty members." T h e Dean also recommends the appointment of Professor S. Konzo as Professor of Mechanical Engineering on indefinite tenure and as Associate Head of the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering beginning September 1, 1962, the salary of this position to be determined when the budget for 1962-63 is submitted for approval. Professor Konzo has been serving as Acting Head of the Department since January 1, 1961. T h e Chairman, and the other four members of the search committee, excluding Professor Konzo, strongly support the latter's appointment as Associate Head, stating that in their opinion he and Professor Korst will be an effective team. I concur in these recommendations.

On motion of Mrs. Watkins, these appointments were approved.
