I402 BOARD OF TRUSTEES A N N U A L MEETING On motion of Mr. Johnston, the Board voted to hold the annual meeting in the LaSalle Hotel, in Chicago, Illinois, on Wednesday, March 12, 1952, beginning at 5:00 p.m. DRILL HALL AT NAVY PIER President Livingston reported that the Corporation Counsel of Chicago has requested that representatives of the city be permitted to appear before the Board of Trustees to discuss the possibility of the University relinquishing the Drill Hall at Navy Pier on or before June, 1952, for use by the Municipal Court of the city of Chicago. The request was for appearance at today's meeting but the Secretary advised the Corporation Counsel's Office that the question to be discussed is of such importance that it should be considered when more of the Trustees are present than could be present today. The Secretary was instructed to invite the city to send its representatives to the meeting on March 12.
