         President Frank G. Dickey
         University of Kentucky

         Dear President Dickey:

         You may recall that members of the Kentucky Inter-Industry
         Electrical Council have been interested in seeing the Home
         Economics building equipped with modern electrical equiprrent.

         During recent weeks, Dean Wall and Dr. Marlatt have been
         meeting with this group to make final plans for equipping the
         laboratories and to install a modern electrical demonstration
         kitchen in one of the basement rooms. Members of this
         group have offered to provide us with funds and equipment
         to complete this project. They have agreed to the following:

             1. Kentucky Utilities Company will provide $1400 to
                be used in installing the kitchen. In addition,
                they will provide us with three pieces of electrical
                equipment, namely, a built-in oven, surface unit
                and a water heater.

             2. Union Light, Heat and Power Company has offered to
                contribute $650 toward the expenses of installing the
                kitchen.

             3. The H. J. Scherich Company has offered to provide
                approximately $1200 worth of cabinets to be installed
                in the kitchen.

  labor to install the cabinets.

              5. The Kentucky Rural Electric Cooperative has offered
                 to provide 11 electrical appliances on a loan basis.
                 This would consist of four 40 inch ranges, one 30
                 inch range, three 12 foot refrigerators, one portable
                 dish washer, one washer and one dryer.

              6. Kentucky Power Company has offered to furnish 11
                 electrical appliances on a loan basis. This would
                 consist of four 40 inch ranges, one 13 foot refrigerator,
                 one upright freezer, one washer, one dryer and three
                 portable dish washers.

          It is our understanding that RECC and Kentucky Power will want
          to replace their equipment with new models each year. We also
          understand that Kentucky Utilities may wish to replace the items
          they are furnishing when it seems appropriate to do so.

          Title to the appliances furnished by these companies remains with
          the company.  There is no cost involved in replacing the equipment
          each year unless the replaced equipment has been damaged as a
          result of accident, or has been abused or misused.

          I recommend we accept these offers as a basis for completing the
          project of adequately equipping the Home Economics teaching
          laboratories with electrical appliances.
