QUARTERLY REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER (17) T h e Comptroller presents his quarterly report to the Board as of March 31, 1953- This report was received for record and a copy was filed with the Secretary of the Board. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF A TELEVISION STATION (18) Action on a report and recommendations relating to this matter were deferred at the request of the President of the University. APPOINTMENT OF OSWALD TIPPO AS DEAN OF THE GRADUATE COLLEGE (19) I recommend the appointment of Dr. Oswald Tippo, now Professor and Chairman of the Department of Botany, as Dean of the Graduate College for two years beginning September I, 1953, at a total salary of $15,000 on "Y" basis. His combined positions will be Dean of the Graduate College ( B Y ) , Professor of Botany ( A Y ) , and Chairman of the Department of Botany ( B Y ) . In making this nomination I have had the advice and unanimous approval of a committee of the Executive Faculty of the Graduate College which was appointed for this consul tative function. On motion of Mr. Nickell, this appointment was approved. REASSIGNMENT OF RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL HOSPITALS FUNDS (20) The original plans for the construction of the East Dentistry-MedicinePharmacy Building included space for the Manufacturing Pharmacy of the Chicago Professional Colleges. This is not now feasible because of the reduction of the appropriation made for the construction of this building in 1951 and the elimination of any additional funds for its construction from the building program for 1953-1955. It is, therefore, proposed to provide the quarters needed by the Manufacturing Pharmacy in the basement of the new addition to the Research and Educational Hospitals. The estimated cost of the necessary alterations and installations is $10,000. The work can be done by the Physical Plant Department. The Provost and the Comptroller recommend an assignment of $10,000 for this purpose. I concur and recommend that this assignment be made from funds budgeted for the operation of the Research and Educational Hospitals during 1952-1953, all of which will not be needed since the new addition is not in service. 1 Deduct.
