Lexington. Ky.. June 19. 1917.

Hon. 3. O. Stall.
First & Gity National Bank.
Lexington, Kentucky.

Dear Mr. Stall:-

My friend. Denis hulligan, who. as you know,
is one of the heirs and son of the late James H. Mulligan.
during the month of March put in a nice little crOp of
potatoes and some other Vegetables in the garden on the
hulligon homestead. The stress of war time: impelled
Denis to go thus far toward eliminating the high cost of
living. and at the time he put in this crop. he was not
advised that the place would he sold at so early a date.

He is very anxious that he be permitted to re»
main on the place in the little brick cottage in the rear
of the residence. and the garden he thinks will be per-
fectly matured and harVeeted about the first of September.
Of course he will be ready and willing to give yoeeeeeion
of the place whenever deeired by your Committee.

I trust, through you. that your committee will
see fit to permit hr. Mulligan to remain on the premises
under the conditions stated. and that it will be your
pleaeure for him to see that no damage is done the premise-
during that time, and to that extent. it will be of
service to the University authorities.

Trusting that this will meet with your own ep-
provel. as well as thee of the Executive Commiotee, of
which yon are a member, I am. with kindeet regards,

Yours very truly,
GAE/MDW G. Allison Holland.

Mr. Brown moVed that the conditions see one in the fore»
going communication from Attorney Holland he accepted. Mr.
Johnston seconded the motion which was adepted by unanimous
voﬁe.

Mr. Stall moveﬁ that the Chairman appoint a committee of
three, of which the Chairman of this Boera shall act as Chair«
man. to look over the mulligan properey and to aecaﬁein zhe
statue of its present condition; what might be neoeeeary to
be done with reference to improvementegetc.. and report to this
Board at ite nexe meeting. Mr. Terrell eeconding. the motion
Was adopted unanimously. Doctor Marks and P. P. Johnemn. Jr.,
were then epoointed on this committee to act in conjunction
with the Chairman.

At this point, Dean A. M. Miller of the College of Arte
and Science, who desired to leave ohe city and asked for immedieﬁe
recognition before the Board. Was called into conference con-
cerning the matter of his leave of absence for one year from the
Deanehip of the College of Arts and Science and thee of his
successor in the chair of Geology ad interim. Dean miller. go
the some time, reed recommendations effecting the matter of a
one yeer°e leave of absence with part salary of $1000 for Pro-
fessor Charles Weaver of the Department of Engﬂeh. which follows:

June 11, 191?.
TO THE PRESIDENT AND EXECUTIVE COﬁMITWEE,

GENTLEMEN:

Profeeeor Weaver doeireé to spend next year ee
another University in completing a course of otudy for the
Doctor‘s degree. He can be permittea to do this, with an
allowance for his salary of $1000. and still nee neoeee1«
tote any increase in the budget of the English Department.
Instruction in the branches toughe by Professor ﬁeaver sen
be provided for out of the remainder of his salary and by
that from one fellowship, which in View of the war can
well be dispeaeed wiﬁh ﬁm~next year.

The above plan has the epproVel of Erofeeeor
Dentzler. I eo recommend shat Professor Weaver be granted
leave of absence under the terms above proposed. but Bhet
hie return to eke University at the close of next year be
at the option of the University. This arrangemeno is

agreeable to Professor Weaver.
Respectfully.
Arshur M. Miller.

The Board discussed the recommendation effecting Professor
Weaver but took no action on it at this time and sent the matter
over to the Budget Committee. Dean Miller then was asked to
discuss with the Board a proposed plan which contemplated adding
Professor h. M. Miller, a brother of Dean Miller. to the teach—
ing force. Dean Miller stated that he preferred for obvious
reasons not to discuss this matter at all but that if it would
illuminate the situation he would do e0. though reluctantly.
Dean Miller said.it had been suggested to him that bhe Depart-
ment of Debate and Public Speaking might be put in charge of
M. M. Miller and that M. M. Miller might, in addition to this.
take up the work of the deanship of the College of Arte and
Science with a View to his (M.M.Miller‘e) permanent retention
of the Deanehip of one College of Arts and Science.

The matter of M. M. Miller'e qualifications for the duties
here referred so were generally discussed. In this discussioh.
gttention was called to section 6 of the repore of ehe Board of
inquiry adepted June 8, by the Board of Trustees which in words
was as follows:

ho member of the Board of Trustees and no relecive
by blood or marriage of any member of the Board of Trustees
or an adminiscrobive officer of ﬁhe University or of any
member of the faculty holding the rank of Assistanc Pre-
feseor or higher shall hereafter be appointed to a position
in the University.

The mother of appointment of a Dean of the College of Arte
and Science for the year covering the leave of absence of Dean
hiller was lefb open to be taken up at a labor meecing.

Dean Miller again recommended that Professor Weaver be
allowed to go to another University for a year on leave of
absence to get his Doctor’s degree and that part of his salary
to the amoune of $1000 be paid to him in the inﬁerim.

Mr. Shell discussing this recommendation expressed dehbb
of the University's right to grant salary allowance under such
conditions.

hr. Shell to Dean Miller - if Professor Weaver. whose
salary is now $1800 a year were allowed to go under this or-
rangemenc. would the departmene of English be able to handle
the work with the remaining $800?

Dean Miller - Yes.

A general discussion Was then entered into concerning
Professor Weaver's work and the means of taking care of it in
his proposed absence.

President Barker -- I desire to go on record as approving
this recommendation.

Mr. Brown was then excused by the Chairman temporarily to
attend to a business engagement in the city.

Dean Miller read his report concerning his retirement from
the Chair of Geology for the year. in which he recommended
Charles Scott. A. B. and M. S. Princetonn so handle his classes
in Geology during his absence.

Dean Miller also recommended that the salary of Mr. States.
Instructor in Physics he raised 80 $1000 in the following:

Lexington,Ky.. June 18. 1917.

TO THE PRESIDENT AND EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE:
Dear Sirs:

I recommend Mr. Charles Scott for the Instructor-
ship in Geology to take charge of my classes during the
coming year. Salary $1500. It is distinddy understood
than his position is tenable for only one year.

I also recommend that the salary of Mr. States,
Instructor in Physics, be raised from $700 to $1000 for the
coming year. This can be done without increasing the
amouns of the general salary budget appropriation for
Physics as Professor Webb will probably be away in the Army
for this term and should he return a out can be made by
leaving out the fellowship, which a decrease in the student
estendance will enable us to dispense with for the coming
year.

I also recommend in addition that Miss Mabel
Pollitt be continued as Instructor in the department of
German. There is $350 for a fellowship arailsble for her
salary. which is little enough for a person of her attain-
menﬁs and teaching ability. However. for certain reasons
she is reluctant to leave the University at this time and
will consens to accept this small compensation and limited
number of teaching hours.

It will be recalled by you thee Miss Pollitt has
been teaching Ancient and Modern Languages in the institu-
tion with success. for seweral years. and was requisitioned
to take some of the classes of Doctor Terrell during the

time he took classes formerly taught by Doctor Tigers.

A return to the former arrangement with a pro-
bable falling off in the number of students, makes it un-
likely that her services will be needed in the Department
of Ancient Languages.

Respectfully,
Arthur M. Miller.
This recommendation Was referred to the Budget Committee.
Dean Miller retired.

hr. Terrell - I think matters would be simplified cone
eiderably if Dean Miller ehouﬂa resign. If
then we desired he act with refereneo he
Professor M. M. Miller. we would not be
confronﬁod by section 6 of the new rules.

Mr. $3011 a My Judgmenﬁ, genhlemen. is that what we
neea at present is simply a geologiee. I
question whether we need another Professor
at this time.

The following resolution wee than offerea:

BE IT RESOLVED. by the Executive Commietee thee Dean
A. M. Miller be giVen leave of absence from his dutiee ae
Dean of the College of Arts and Science for one year. with-
oue pay, and that his reeommendstion hhat Professor Seoti
be employed as Professor of Geology at a salary of $1500
a year during the year he is obsess ho epnroved; ané that
Professor Scott be informed that his employment is for one
year only.

The following letter was filed with the Chairman:

Mr. C. B. Nichols.

Dear Sir:«

A9 the June meeting of the Board of Trustees
en order was passed relating to “Outside Work“. I wish
to ask your commitzee he interpret She meaning of this
order withrelation to eork during ohe summer vacation, in
other words may a member of the faculsy be employed eueoide
the Univereiﬁy on a salary through the summer or may he
engage in his profession for remuneration in competition
With others in the some profession.

I might say that it has always been the praoo
tics of the members of the Civil Engineering Faculty to
do summer work which not only aide in our supoort but
also aide very materially in our teaching in that we keep
up with the best practices of the profession and keep
alive to the needs of the State.

I have asked the above questions in order that
neither myself nor other members of this department may go
wrong during this season.

Yours truly.

D. V. Terrell, Dean.

The following letter was filed and ordered epread upon the
minutes: -

The Executive Committee of the Board of Trueﬁeee,
Univereiey of Kentucky.

Gentlemen:o

The strict construction of the receno action of the
Board with respect to outside work of members of the fee-
ulty may affect the work which Mr. Grehan of the Journal:
ism Department is doing for neg hr. Geehan has done this
work in other than teaohiag hours and it is serviee which
could not be secured from any other sourceo In fact, we
could noeseaue it at all. If this action is construed to
prevent Mr. Grehan from doing this Work it will deprive
the Herald of a ealuable feature of its edihorial page.
which is a small consequence to Mr. Grehan from a financial
point of View.

The Herald does not wish to aneagonize any policy
for the good of the institution and we would like to have
a ruling as to the effect of the action on Mr. Grehan'e
work for the Herald.

Very reepecﬁfully yourn.
Charles 1. Stewart.
General Manager.
The Board took no aoeion with reference to these two oom-
munioations but had read by the secretary, section 30 of the

report of the Board of Inquiry which Was adopted June 8 by the
Board of Trustees and which is as followazw

Members of the University staff may be permitted to
do professional work of an expert character outside the
University. and to receive pay therefor. when it appears
that the service desired can not be readily obtained else-
where, provided that no piece of such outside work shall
be undertaken excess on prior authorisation of the
President of the University. The President shall report
in arising to the Board of Trustees, for public record
in their minutes, the facts relating so every such auth-
orization which he gives.

The two foregoing communications were then ordered turned
over to President Barker for his action and subsequens report
to this Board as to shes disposition he had made of them.

The Secretary of the Board Was authorized to get a record
of the names of Professors and instructors who have enzered
service for the defense of the country. (permission to do which
having been given by the Executive Board at a previous meeting)
and spread same upon these minutes.

Those who left for the defense of the country under this
rule were:

The following report from Miss Mary E. Sweeney° Reed of
the Depsrsmenh of Home Economics was ordered spread upon She
minutes:

June 5, 191?.

Executive Committee.
University of Kentucky.

Gentlemen:~

In closing the yenr's work I desire so report a most
satisfactory session in the Home Economics courses. The
withdrawals due to sickness and other causes from the
student matriculation has been only four. Seven were excused
to return home to help increase the food supply.

The scholarship maintained in classical subjects as
well as Home Economics classes has been far above the aver-
age for preceding years.

Valuable so-eperatiVe work has been done wish the
Welfare Associaﬁon of Woodford County. six young women have
taughs cooking in thdr one room rural schools since April

first. The fact that three of these schools are planning
eo include in their courses classes of cooking is evidence
of the Value of the student's work.

To meet the demand for knowledge regarding feed eon-
eerveﬁion ﬁbers have been issue& a Manual of Canning and
Preserving for the Housewife. mimeograph sheets concerning
She preparation of soy beans, relative food Values, meax
substitutes, war emergency recipes. The demand for these
has been great throughout the state.

In behalf of the University the Homeﬁkonomice has
offered its services to the groups taking Red Cross train-
ing for courses in Canning and Food Preserveeiono A group
of thirty-six women will begin their study on Juae 12.

It is highly probable that this class will be followea
by others.

The matriculation of etudenﬁe for the fall term ha
beea exceptionally gratifying. aed in all hue a few oeeee
the registration has been for four year coureee leadhg
to a degree.

Booger Redmon and Mrs. Spanlebury, head of the
training school for nursee a% the Good Samaritan Hoepiﬁel
have given their eeevicee to eighty women students of the
Univereiey for a twelve weeks oouwee in Ree Geese work.

Chairman Executive committee of Board of Trueeeee,
Univereiey of Kentucky.

Deer Sirxa

In my report of May 15 $0 the Executive Commieeee.
I asked authority to transfer $100 of an unused sum of
$200 of the salaries approprieﬁed for thsa college $0
echo salary that had been allotted for Professor T. J.
Barr. (eee paragraph 4 of said nport).

The surplus of $200 occured in this way: The ealery
of Mr. I. P. Taehof had been placed at $1300 for the
college year ending the 30th of this month. Mr. Taehof
resigned in August,1916. I ootained the services of Mr.
B. O. Worley for $1000 thus leaving $200 of ihe emounﬁ
that had been alloted for ﬁr. Teehof nausea. It is $100
of this surplus $200 that I wish eo transfer go Mr. Barr‘s
salary. thus making it $2000 for the year ending June 30.
191?, instead of $1900.

It Was through oversight that I haé please Professor
Barr‘s salary at $1900 for the present year (onﬁing June 30};
it really should have been placed a% $3000. When Professor
Barr called my attention to the maeter and expressed his
diegpoinement, I assured him I would try 36 remedy my mien
take. and this 18 whee E ﬁried to 06 in my report above

@hie has been a year of close investigation of our
Law School. to ascertain whether or not it has attained
a high standard of efficiency. Beside the inspection of
the recent Survey Committee working under the direction of
the UeiVereisy. we have been subjected to an examination
by she Association of American Law Sohools. to which
Aeeooieoion we belong. and whioh includes less than one
third of all ﬁhe law sohooXs of the Uniﬁed Sﬁates made

The following report of the Board of Conﬁrel of Patterson
Hall which was presented to the Board of Trueeeee as éte meeﬁ-
ing June ?, and ordered sent to the Executive Committee was
filed and ordered spread upon ﬁhe minutes:

The Board of Control of Paztereon Hall submiﬁe dﬁe
reporﬁ for ehe collegiate year. 1916-1?. as follows:—

The first work of the Board. afﬁer their appointmenﬁ.
as Was stated in their report of last December. was an
inepeotion of the building and the ordering of fire eon
capes and fire drills. An extra fire eseape wee ordered
installed by the Executdre Commietee. When an eeeimate
was made by contractors. difficulties were found in con»
etruetion. The Board, under the advice of Mr. Peek eon,
suited with the state fire marshal. He, after an inc
epectlon of the building. pronounced the present fire
escapee worthless and advised the ineﬁallation of two new
ones. to replaee the small inadequate ones new there.
These have been contracted for end eheuld have been in
place by this time. The probable restoration of she re-
ereeoion hall at the end of this year renders it an«
necessary to install an additional one at the rear window.

The Board ordered a new arrangement of ﬁhe¢ieetric
wiring and of ﬁhe lights in the halls, putting on sash
floor ewe hell lights that should hora zhrough the nighta
and installing an elecorie gong as a fire alarm. The fire
drill. as ordered by the Board, wee pad inﬁo practise and
has been carried on through the school year.

During the chrieﬁmae waeetion. the dell was kepﬁ open
for doiegatee of the Students“ Prohibition Gonvention. A
small fee wee charged for rooms. to cover the nose of
fuel, and lighteg and a fee for mealo. About forﬁy dele-
gates were entertained. .

Believing thaﬁ Feedereon Hall should be used as had
been contemplated in iﬁe erection for the young women of
She Steﬁe. the Board conferred with President Barker about
the rooms he oeenpied in the Hell. conferenooo were held
with him and with the Executive Commiﬁtee. bus as the
second term was then in progress, it was deemed advisable
do inaﬁeﬁ on no change until June lot: at which eime

Preeidenﬁ Barker stated he intended to remove from the
Hell.

Meteors of organiseﬁion. of managemene and of discipo
line have occupied our time and attention during the reaﬁ
of the year.

The management of the Hall. we are euro. has been

conscientiously carried on by each of the employees in the
department entrusted to her. But because of a lack of
coordination of the different departments and the look of
a strong central authority. there have not been as good
results as we feel could have been obtained. From thie
same cause, the discipline at the Hall has been lax. An
effort was made to install a system of enudent government.
At a house meeting, Lexington women. alumnae of Cornelle
Welleeley. Bryn Mawr and Vassar. spoke, setting forth the
adVantageo and benefiie of this system. We hope thee

this matter will be taken up again in the fall.

The plans outlined for next year are as follows:

We have recommended to ohe Dean of Women thee her re-
sidence be outside of the Hall.

Miss Hopper, the bookkeeper. has not applied for rec
election.

Mise Pioheti will be retained as dietitian. at the
same salary, $50 per monbh.

The Board has almoei concluded arrangemento with a
women who will become director of the Hell. She is a
women of wide experience. of technical training, as a
manager of institutions, of Christian character and
attreotivo personality. She has had experience as eeeieo
tone director of one of the large dormiooriee in she Egon.
The director will have the reeponoibiliiy for the menegeo
mono of the Hall. Miss Picketo will report to her and
she will make monohly reports to the Board of Control and
through them to the Executive Committee. If there is more
bookkeeping than she can care for, we feel it can be
oraneforred to the business department of ihe UniVereiSy.

The director will be entirely responsible for the
conduct of the etudonbe. except on the campus. and will
bring to this work, we hope. a wide experience with the
problems and activities of women in large institutions.

The Board of Control expects to undertake the organiza—
tion of a system of eupervioed boarding houses where the
overflow from the Hall may be cared for under the proper
conditions. We have taken no steps in this direction yet.
and feel it may be a task involving many difficulties.

We think that we shall be very dorounaoe in aocuring
the services of the person under consideration for the
position of Director and feel reasonably sure that we shall
be able to do 30. She has been offered a salary of $900
a yoat. The Executive Committee have yromieed to take

care of $850.00 of this. In reﬁnzn for this. a few hours

of teaching each Week in the Department of Home Economics
will be done by the Director. This will give her a stand-
ing in the UniVereity and will dignify her position.

The Board of Control hopes to keep the boar& fer next
year as near the present price as we can, but with 931669
as they are at present. we shall probably have to increase
it a little. During the summer, it is our intention to
have the recreation hall restored to ite former use. Some

renovating of decoration will probably be entailed by the
change.

The Hall will be kepﬁ epen for the summer eehoel.
Miss Pickeﬁt being in charge.

The Board requests ehat if there is any balance of
funds remaining from the apnroPriatien of two thoneené
dollars appropriate& for the Hall by the State, it be
yeid OVer to the Board to be used for_repe1re or other
eXpeneee. We feel thee this is just as servant's hire
for which provieion is made in the tee thousand'dellere.

has been paid entirely frem the current receipee at ﬁhe
Hall.
