REPORT O F FINANCE COMMITTEE O N SALE OF HALLIBURTON O I L W E L L CEMENTING COMPANY COMMON STOCK

The Gulf Research and Development Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, recently offered to sponsor a graduate fellowship in the Department of Physics. This offer was accepted by the University. When the remittance was received from the sponsoring corporation, it was in the form of forty-three shares of Halliburton Oil Well Cementing Company Common Stock, rather than in cash, as had been expected. Since these funds are needed to make the payments required under the fellowship, it is recommended that this stock be sold and the proceeds used for the purpose of the fellowship. Mr. Livingston reported that the Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees approves this sale and recommends the adoption of the following resolution:

WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois is the owner of forty-three shares of Halliburton Oil Well Cementing Company Common Stock, and WHEREAS, it is the decision of such Board that this stock be sold, Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved that this sale be completed and that H. O. Farber, Comptroller, and A. J. Janata, Secretary, be authorized to execute documents necessary to complete such sale.

This resolution was adopted.
