RETIREMENT OF CHARLES D. FLOYD (2) Charles D. Floyd, Tool Room Attendant in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, has requested that he be retired from active service on account of his health, on the advice of his personal physician. T h e Head of the Department, the Dean of the College, and the University Health Officer recommend approval. Mr. Floyd is 67 years old. He has been in service 15 years and one month, as of October 1, 1941. T h e old system of retiring allowances and death benefits provided t h a t "in exceptional cases and for substantial cause, retirement hereunder may be permitted by the Board at any time after a member reaches 65 years of age." In consideration of the fact t h a t active members of the University staff now come under the new retirement law, the Board of Trustees on August 5 repealed the old system, but with t h e provision that retirement thereunder may be permitted any time up t o January I, 1942, when it is to the best interests of the University. Since Mr. Floyd may be retired under the old system, t h a t would be the best solution of his case. Accordingly, I recommend that he be retired, effective October 1, 1941, with a retiring allowance of $502 a year, this being the amount to which he is entitled under the old system. An addition of this amount t o the 1941-1942 budget would be necessary for the allowance.

On motion of Mr. Jensen, this retirement was authorized, and the appropriation was made, by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Adams, Mr. Cleary, Mr. Davis, Mr. Fornof, Mrs. Grigsby, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Livingston, Dr. Meyer; no, none; absent, Mr. Green, Mr. Karraker, Mr. Wieland.

RETIRING ALLOWANCE FOR D R . GEORGE B. HASSIN (3) Dr. George B. Hassin, Professor of Neurology, retired from active service, September 1, 1941, after serving on t h e clinical faculty without salary from October 25, 1920, to September 1, 1931, and on the salaried staff since then. In other words, he served for eleven years without salary and for ten years with salary. Dr. Hassin had served on the staff of t h e State Psychiatric Institute for eleven years, with salary. In 1925 when Dr. Hassin was made a full professor he asked t o be transferred from the State Psychiatric Institute to the salaried staff of the College of Medicine, but the Head of the Department of Psychiatry deferred doing this because of the financial saving t o the University which would result if t h e State Psychiatric Institute continued paying his salary. Doctor Hassin says t h a t he was assured by Doctor Singer, then Head of the
