Crouse, of the Department ofMining and Metallurgical Engineering, confirming and giving outline of the fellowship in Physical Metqllurgy in the Department of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering. He furthe. stated that the letter was being submitted with the recommendation of Dean Graram and Professor Crouse that the fellowship be accepted. JOSEPH E. SEAGRAM & SONS, INCA Louisville, Kentucky June 28, 1943 Dr. C. S. Crouse Department of Mining & Metallurgical Engineering University of Kentucky Lexington, Kentucky My dear Dr. Crouse: With the registration of our .4'. Roland Kozlik in your University, for study in your Department of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, we are hereby establishing a fellowship at your Institution. Since you and I seem to have had bad luck in getting togeth- er, I think it would clarify the conditions of this Fellow- ship if I outlined its chief points which have been estab- lished as a basic policy in dealing with other universities under similar situations. 1) We are establishing with your Department of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, a Fellowship for the study of Physical Metallurgy. This Fellowship has now been awarded to Mr. Roland Kozlik, a former employee of JOSEPH E. SEAGRAM & SONS, INC., but now resident in Lexington and a registered graduate student of your Institution. 12 2) It is expected that the Fci.!ow (Mr. Roland Kozlik) who carries on this study T.ill receive his academic training at your Unive.rsity and will later conduct his actual research work with you, subject to some consultation and direction from us. 3) All e xpenses incurred by your Staff in communicating between Lexington and our Louisville Offices in help- ing direct the Follow in his work, will be carried by this Company. 4) The salary of the said Fellow will be continued by JOSEPH E.SEAGRAMI & SONS,Inc. until the completion of his course, and until he has achieved his degree of Master of Science. 5) This Company will pay to the University of Kentucky the sum of 4600 (Six Hundred Dollars) in order to de- fray the expenses incurred by the University in the academic conduct of this same Fellowship. 6) All data obtained in conjunction with the Fellowship will be free for publication by the University;however, it is expected that acknowledgment will be made by the University to the credit of this Company. If you prefer, it might be erpedient to handle this Fellowship on a concrete contractual basis. If your University is in agreement with the above, we should like to make arrngements to draw 1;p a contract followei. this outline. But first of all, we should appreciate your expression on these points, and if you have any suggestions, the submission from you of a tentative contract incorporating our agreement. Yours very truly, JOSEPH E.SEAGRAM & SONS,INC. (Signed)Paul Kolachov Technical Counselor After hearing the explanation of the fellowship as offered, the Executive Committee took the following action: it * * * *E * * * * * 7. Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the fellowship was accbepted and the President was requested to write a letter expressing the appreciation of the University for the fellow- ship established. * * ** ** * ** * 13 H. Residence Hals for Women Budiet. President Donovan submitted t'.c budget for residence halls for women for the year 1943-44 and recc,.,mended its approval. It was ex- plained, howeverj that for obvious reasons, an accurate budget at this time could not be presented. We do not know how many students will be in residence during the current year or how many houses it T. '11 be necessary to activate and rent in order to take care of the alas seeking residence in women's halls for the current year, and .t this is a good guess as to the requirements for the current .ycare * * * * * * * * * * 8. It was moved and seconded that the budget for residence halls for women; as submitted, for the year 1943-44 be accepted as a basis of expenditures, and that inclusion of the name of any person in the budget shall not be considered as a contract of employment, and the Board of Trustees or the Executive Committee shall be authorized to make such changes in the budget as may, from time to time, be deemed necessary or advisable. A copy was ordered filed. * * *Q* * * * * * * President Donovan stated to the Executive Committe that the Dean of Women and the Comptroller had recommended an increase in the fees charged per quarter for room and board in the women's residence halls, It was recommended that the fee be increased from $100 to $110 per quarter. It was further explained that this increase was made necessary due to the increased raw food costs and increased cost of labor necessary for preparations and other overhead expenses. This increase represents an additional cost of less than four cents per meal. It is recognized that this increase is far less than the rise in food costs but it is thought to be sufficient to place the food unit in the residence halls on a self-sustaining basis. It was further eplained that in the event this amount is found to be inadequate, another increase will be requested. 9. Upon motion duly made and seconded the Execu- tive Committee, being thoroughly advised, au- thorized an increase in the fee for room and board in the Women's Residence Halls from $100 to $110 per quarters effective for the fall quarter, 1943-44 school year. 14 J. Contract for U.S.A. Correspondence Instruction Courleso President Donovan submitted contract No. W-49-039-SS-170 which .d been negotiated with the University through the Department of 1v.. ersity Extension and explained that it provided for correspon- -..e courses to be given to enlisted men in United States Army and :.'ilitary personnel ofthe Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps, upon applications received and approved by the Commandant of the Armed Forces Institute. He further explained that the contract provided for the carrying on of extension courses similar to those now in operation by the Department of University Extension but that this contract provided for the Government to pay a part of the instruc- tional and supplies costs incident to the correspondence courses offered and taken. 10. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the action of the President and Director of the Department of University Extension in signing this a ntract was approved. K. Resolution son Death of Professor Nutter. President Donovan reported the death of Mr. J. W. NutterSuper- intendent of Dairy Farm, Experiment Station, which occurred on Au- gust 3, 1943. Whereupon the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees passed the following resolution: Resolved that the Board of Trustees of the Universi- ty of Kentucky regret to learn of the death of Mr. J.W. Nutter, who for forty-six years has been a faithful and trusted employee of the University of Kentucky.

Will you kindly place these bonds (Serial numbers, Q, 383781 Ft Q 383782 F, and Q, 363783 F) in safe keeping, subject to call by persons properly representing the local chapter of Alpha Zeta? 16 Enclosed also is a cashier's check, drawn on the First National Bank of Lexin:on, for 75 cents. This represents the difference be'.een the cost of Series E Bonds, for which Alpha Zeta oider No. 635 was drawn, and the Series F Bonds enclosed. Series E Bonds cannot be purchased by unincorporated associations, hence the necessary adjustment. I hope this arrangement will be satisfactory with you. Very truly yours (Signed) Dana G.

Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was ordered that the funds received from the sale of houses on Euclid and :z Adams Streets be deposited in a locai revolving fund and invested along with any other funds that are not needed for operating purposes at the present time. It was further stated that the Comptroller shall report to the Executive Committee at a subsequent meeting all furns and amounts invested in Governn nt bonds. No Leaves pf Absence. President Donovan reviewed for tne executive Committee the problem facing the University with respect to its policy of granting leaves of absence to the staff for the purpose of joining the mili- tary forces or working with other govennmental agencies or industry. te pointed out the fact that the University had already lost scores of its employees to the armed forces, governmental agencies and in- dustry, and that at present there was a serious shortage of teachers in several of the departments. He expressed some apprehension with regard to whether or not the University would have enoughteachers to fulfill its contract with the War Department for the instruction of the youth in the ASTP, if the practice of granting leaves of ab- sence to staff members wno volunteer for service should be continued. The president recommended that in view of the fact that the University has an important contract to train approximately 1250 soldiers, as well as continue to offer its usual program of studies to civilians, that the policy of granting leaves of absence to mem_ bers of tiie staff who volunteer for other services be discontinued, and that in the future leaves of absence be granted only to those men who are drafted under the Selective Service. kotion made, seconded and carried that the President be in- structed to decline to give further leaves of absence to faculty members except in cases where they are drafted under the Selective Service. 0. Waiver Lf Employment of Relatives Policy. President Donovan explained to the Executive Committee the dif- ficulty in securing physicists and chemists and stated that it has been necessary to employ Mrs. Herbert P. Riley, wife of Dr. Herbert P. Riley who is head of the Department of Botany, as a part-time teacher of Chemistry and recommended that the policy regarding the employment of relatives of staff members previously adopted by the Board of Trustees be waived in this particular instance only for the duration of the present emergency. * * * * * * v * * * 13.
