MCCARTHY (18) T h e Committee on Accountancy of the University of Illinois has recommended that Illinois Certified Public Accountant Certificate No. 1500 issued by the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois to Mervyn L. McCarthy on March 14, 1939, be revoked for good and sufficient cause on the basis of which the Certified Public Accountant Certificate issued to him in Colorado has been revoked by the Board of Accountancy of that state in which he resides and was engaged in the practice of public accounting. T h e University of Illinois Committee, having before it a report from the Colorado Board informing it of the revocation of his Colorado certificate and the basis therefor, notified him, by registered mail, that his Illinois certificate would be revoked also unless he appeared at a hearing offered him by it to show cause why this action should not be taken. Although receipt of that notice was acknowledged by return receipt, he did not communicate with the Committee and did not appear at the hearing on the date set therefor. With the approval of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, the Secretary of the Board then informed Mr. McCarthy of the resulting recommendation of the Committee on Accountancy of the University that his certificate be revoked, and notified him that in the absence of receipt within twenty days thereafter by the Secretary of written objections from him to the revocation of his certificate and a request for a hearing before the Board of Trustees, it would be assumed that he would not contest the revocation of his Illinois certificate and did not desire to be heard by the Board of Trustees relative to the same. Receipt by him of this notice, which was sent by registered mail, is evidenced by the return receipt therefor, but, although the twenty-day period has long since expired, no objections to the revocation of his Illinois certificate or request for a hearing by the Board of Trustees, or any other communication, has been received from him. A record of the proceedings of the Committee on Accountancy of the University of Illinois in connection with this matter, and its recommendation for the revocation of his Illinois Certificate is submitted herewith, to be filed with the
