AMENDMENT OF ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION B Y - L A W S (18) T h e Board of Directors of the Athletic Association has voted that Article V I , Section 6, of the By-Laws of the Athletic Association be amended as follows: Section 6. Working Fund. The Business Manager may be allotted a working fund of not more than $io,ooo, the amount of which shall be determined by the Board of Directors. Its purpose shall be the payment of petty and emergency items for which it shall be reimbursed from time to time by regular voucher and check for the Association. With the increased operations of the Athletic Association it has been found that the working fund is inadequate to take care of needs in a satisfactory manner. F o r this reason, an increase in the fund is needed. T h e Comptroller recommends approval of the change and I concur. The By-Laws of the Association provide that amendments shall be submitted to the Board of Trustees for consideration before taking effect. On motion of Mr. McKelvey, these amendments were authorized.
