President Aenry  . darker,
University of Kentucky.
Lexington, Ky.

My dear President Barkert

     Inas much as no trfveling eanenses were allowed for the
apple judging contest, rofessor Rathewa has made application
for permission to use a small amount out of his departmentil,
budget fgor -I --apurjfsas-' I 4tlose his letter, which will set
forth the matter better t.an   can do.

     Inasmuch as the $300.00 originally set aside for travell-
ing in the budget of the  ollege of Agriculture was not speci-
fied for any single department, but was really intended for all
departments, and insigmuch as the executive committee has order-
ed that this and the 4100 additional be used for the stuent
jud~ging  ontest i  the Department of "nimal Husbandry, 1 think
it but fair that  rofessor Mathews be allowed to foljow the
plan which he proposes, and it has my endorsement.    would
be glad if you would ap- rove this, if you can see fit to do
so, and return, with your approval Professor atheV's letter.

                                 Yours very truly,

                                      George Roberts.
