Airport on or before March 1, 1945. (b) T h e University will agree to spread the limestone on the area, and has made tentative arrangements to have this done for sixty cents a ton. T h e com^The land to be purchased is between the Airport and the U. S. Highway 45. Its purchase will give the University full control of both sides of the entrance road to the Airport.
