     D, Budget Increase for Adlditions to Pipe Organ.

     President Donovan reported that he had been in consultation
with Doctor Capurso, head of the Department of Mlusic, concerning the
possibility of making additions to the organ in Memorial Hall.    He
stated that the instrument is nowcvscribed by musicians as a "skele-
ton organ", and cwas installed approximately twenty years ago, with
the intention of adding new pipes and stops gradually.

     He related that, due to the shortage of funds available to the
University during the depression years, no additions have been made,
and he recommended a budget increase of $7,200.00, to be used for
additions to the pipe organ in putting this instrument in proper con-
dition to be of maximum service to the Department of Music, and pro-
grams sponsored by the University and the Department of Music.

     The members discussed the President's recommendation, and upon
motion, duly made, seconded and carried, authorized appropriation of
07,200O0, and directed the Comptrpller to transfer said amount from
the unappropriated surplus of the University budget to the budget for
special repairs and alterations.


     E. Appropriation for Steam Distribution System.

     President Donovan stated that it was necessary to make some ad-
ditions and revisions to our steam distribution system, in order
adequately to serve existing buildings and the new buildings that are
now under construction. He read the following letter relative to
taking bids for this work.



                                      October 17, 1947

     Dr. H. L. Donovan, President
     University of Kentucky

     Iy dear President Donovan:

          . transmit herewith a set of the plans and specifi-
    cations for construction of revisions and additions to the
    steam distribution system of the University of Kentucky.
    We have requested contract for this work, and the bids are
    to be accepted in the Frankfort office on October 23, 1947,
    3:00 p.m., C.S.Tn

         We have made an attempt to give a wide distribution
    of this request for bids. It is rather difficult to es-
    timate the ocost, but, In our judgment, the low bid will,
    in all probability, exceed sixty thousand dollars,




 





4



           If it meets with your approval, I desire to recom-
     mend that the Executive Committee, at its meeting on
     October 21st, be requested to appropriate a sum sufficient
     to permit the awarding of a contract, if a satisfactory
     bid is received at the letting on October 23rd.   You
     will recall that in addition to the revision of the old
     steam distribution system, this work calls for a line
     that will take care of the Fine Arts Building, the tem-
     porary chemistry building and the temporary classroom
     building in front of the Library.   It appears to be
     rather urgent that we get started on this work as soon
     as possible.

                                   Sincerely yours,

                                (Signed) Frank D. Peterson
                                             Comptroller.


     The plans for the addition to the system were available, and
members of the Committee examined the plans and familiarized them-
selves with the work to be done.

     Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the additions and
revisions to the steam distribution system, as outlined by the plans
and specifications available, were authorized, an appropriation in
the amount of i70,000.00 was approved, and the Comptroller was direct-
ed to authorize the acceptance of bids for the prosecution of this
work at a cost not to exceed $8O,00000.


     F, 4-H Club Camp Site Authorized Accepted.

     President Donovan read a letter from Dean Thomas Cooper advising
the possibility of the State transferring a camp in Western Kentucky
to the Univeraity, to be used in the 4-H Club program.


                                           October 8, 1947

    President H. L. Donovan
    University of Kentucky

    Dear President Donovan:

         For some years it has seemed desirable from the stand-
    point of the conduct of 4-H Club work to have an area in
    Western Kentucky for utilization as a 4-H Club camp and owned
    by the University,   This would give, in that area, a proper-
    ty for 4-H Club work such as we have in Central Kentucky in
    the Bingham Memorial Camp and In Eastern Kentucky, for the
    present at least, in the facilities of the RobInson Substa-
    tion.




 





5



      Mr. Wihitehouse and members of the 4-H Club department
 have been considering for some time, possible sites in
 Western Kentucky.   Lately they learned of the possibility
 of procuring a park area of approximately 400 acres, one
 mile from the city of Dawson Springs, accessible through
 paved roads-.  It was further ascertained that this proper-
 ty could be transferred to the University of Kentucky if
 the University Board of Trustees so desired.   Water in
 the park is obtained from drilled wells and it is stated
 that the supply is ample.   Also there is a good residence
 in the park for occupation by the person who may be placed
 in charge of the property or for such other usages as may
 be determined.   There is a pavilion in which meetings may
 be held and which contains two fireplaces.   In addition,
 there are numerous other structures in the park.    The wells
 are equipped with modern automatic equipment.   Bath houses,
 toilet facilities and drinking fountains are already in-
 stalled in the park.   There is a lake of 14 acres, with
 bathing facilities, and which varies in depth from a few
 inches to twenty feet or more.       The grounds have been
 improved and beautified,

     I'Ir. Whitehouse and Assistant Director Bryant recom-
mend that this property be procured for the use of the 4-H
Club department in the Agricultural Extension Division of
the University of Kentucky.   Much use could be made of
this property when it is completely developed,    The thirty-
two counties of W'estern Kentucky have an enrollment of more
than 15,000 4-H Club members.   In addition there are more
than 6900 in the homemakers clubs in that area.    Other
organizations of the institution would also have available,
facilities of that camp.   Undoubtedly it would be necessary
to erect a club building to be used for kitchen and dining
hall services and to procure a building for sleeping accommo-
dations for those in attendance at camp.    Attached is a
blueprint of the grounds, prepared in 1937.

     I recommend that you request the Board of Trustees to
authorize a request to the Kentucky Board of Public Property,
for the transfer in fee simple of this property, with all its
appurtenances, to the University of Kentucky for the use of
4-H Club work and other official activities.

                                 Sincerely yours,

                               (Signed) Thomas Qooper
                                        Dean and Director.

     The President reported that he had had an occasion to visit the
camp recently and that, in his judgment, it was very much vworth while
for the University to secure title to the camp, if arrangements could
be made.

     Some of the members seemed to be somewhat familiar with the
Gamp, and after a general discussion, motion was made, seconded and
carried, authorizing Dean Cooper and the Comptroller to take the
necessary steps towards securing possession of the camp, and to ac-
cept on behalf of the University the proper deed.


     G. Exchange of Kentucky Utilities Stock authorized.

     President Donovan read a letter from the Comptroller outlining
the details of te exchange of Kentucky Utilities stock held in the
name of the Albert Kocourek Law Library Fund.



    October 16, 1947


    Dr. H. L. Donovan, President
    University of Kentucky

    est received for the old 7% Junior Preferred stock,

     H. Increase in PAy for Practice Teaching Authorized.

     President Donovan read a letter from Dr. W. S. Taylor, Dean of
the College of Education. recommending an increase in the amount paid
per quarter hour for practice teaching supervision.


                                     September 30, 1947


     President H. L, Donovan
     University of Kentucky

     Dear President Donovan:

     Inr. Ginger and I have been discussing the problem of prac-
     ticoe teaching for the current year,  Dr. Rowland feels
     that the V5.00 per quarter hour which we are now paying is
     inadequate for the amount of time that is being demanded
     of the teachers.   I think his point is well taken.    I am
     recommending: therefore, that we pay for the current year
     $5.00 a quarter hour for off-campus ivork.

     IS you will approve this increase, I think we will be able
     to do a much better job of practice teanhing_    I do not
     believe the cost for the entire year willj amount to $400,
     .which will be cheap for the work which we shall get done.

                                   Very sincerely yours,

                               (Signed) William S. Taylor.

      President Donovan recommended that the request be approved,
 and that the amount per quarter hour be increased from $3.00 to
 4$5.00 per quarter hour for off-campus "rork.

      Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the recommendation
 of the President was concurred in,

      October 13, 1947

      My dear President Donovan:             Welch.

          On August 30th, at 9:00 a.m., Mr. Dan Welch, painter,
     was working at the Stock Pavilion.  IMr. Welch was on a
     ladder when the ladder slipped on the concrete walk, throw-
     ing him to the concrete. He was taken imr.ediately to the
     Infirmary by a fellow worker and examined by Dr. McChord,
     About a week later, he was re-examined and an X-ray made.
     The results showed that Mr. Welch had a fracture of the
     sacrum.   Dr. Humphrey, of the Infirmary, sent 1r. Welch
     to Dr. Ernest E. Myers, orthopedic consultant.   Dr. lMyers
     gave treatment to the patient, who seems to be doing all
     right at this time.   Invoice from Dr. Myers is attached,
     in the amount of ten dollars for personal services rendered.

          Since Mr. Welch was injured on the job and was referred
     to Dr. Myers by our physicians, I recommend that the invoice
     of ten dollars be paid.

                                      Respectfully submitted,

                                 (Signed) Frank D. Peterson
                                           Comptroller.

     Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the account of Dr.
Ernest E. Myers in the amount of $10.00 was authorized paid from
College Collection Fund, with the expressed understanding that the
action on the case was without commitment as to future action of the
Executive Committee and that it dl.d. not establish a precedent and
does not admit negligence or liability in paying this bill.
