UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

While the Plant Variety Review Committee provided in the policy statement is yet to be established, for some time the Director has had the advice of a similar body, which_ has now indicated to him that the potential market for red clover seed is relatively small and that the seed industry would be reluctant to promote the sale of a new variety of the crop if the variety is released to the public. Consequently, the Director has recommended that the Comptroller and the Secretary be empowered to enter into an exclusive licensing agreement with the Rudy-Patrick Seed Company of Kansas City, Missouri, the only seed company which has expressed interest in reproducing and marketing this variety of clover, for the sale of seed_ of the Redland variety. The Director further recommends that such exclusive license be granted for a royalty equal to the University's costs of certification and any related additional charges incurred by the University in perfecting the certification. The Rudy-Patrick Company is to assume all costs of policing and infringement proceedings which may be necessary. The Chancellor at Urbana concurs with these recommendations. I recommend approval. O n motion of M r . Swain, this recommendation was approved.
