Gentlemen of the Board of Trustees: I shall confine
my report to you tca.y to two things, namely: the building
operations and work of the Experiment Station.
(a) The NeV Gymnasium. A contract was made by the
Alumni Association with the Blanchard-Crocker Company for the
construction of the new gymnasium. The contract for the
basement involved an expenditure of about 019,000. This con-
tract was carried out and the basement was paid for. The
contract for the super-structure of the building was let for
about $60,000. This work has been completed for the most
part but there still remains a few items before the building
6.
is finished. The At'- tic Association issued notes to the
Blanchard-Crocker Company., and the University indorsed those
notes to the extent of $30,000 ; $20,000 was advanced on the
building by the University and $10,000 of this has been re-
paid by the Alumni Association. There is $10,000 still due
the contractor which has not been paid. This has not been
paid because there are against the building some $15,000 in
mechanice" liens. The contractor has quit work because of
lack of funds for carrying it..:on, and it has become necessary
for the University to finish the building. Enough money
has been held back from the amount due the company to com-
plete the work.
(b) Stadium. A contract has been signed with Louis
DeCognets Company for $100,000 for the construction of the
stadium. The work on the stadium has been begun, and it
is expected that the building will be completed by September
15. We were able to begin work on the stadium because the
Memorial Building Committee made a loan of $50,000 which is
to be paid from stadium pledges.
(c) Chemistry Building. Plans for the Chemistry Build-
ing have been submitted by Coolidge and Shattuck of Boston.
I have these plans here and Doctor Tuttle, Head of the
Chemistry Department, desires to make some suggestions
for the enlargement of the plans as submitted by Coolidge
and Shattuck. He will appear before the Board later in the
meeting and make a statement concerning the needs of the
department.
(d) MemorffijBuilding. Nothing has been done on the
Memorial Building. It is still awaiting the collection of
additional funds before starting the work. A number of
suggestions have been made as to the location of the build-
ing.
(e) Ol_ Buildings. The present gymnasium is to be used
for a women's gymnasium, and it will be necessary to spend
some $1,200 in making repairs on that building. The wooden
structure which has formerly been used for the women's gym-
nasium is ho longer serviceable, and will have to be discarded
and used for a shop.
(f) Changes on thj.UniversitZ Campus. We expect to
make some changes on the University campus during the summer.
Some walks will have to be changed and some drives repaired.
7.
(g) The Robinson Sub-Experiment Station. The Robinson
Sub-Experiment Station in Breathitt County is to be opened
soon. This Experiment Station consists of a tract of
15,000 acres of land, lying mostly in Breathitt County,
given by Mr. E. 0. bobinson. A dispute has arisen between
Mr. Miles Back and the Robinson Company. I am glad to
report that this matter has been settled, and IVx. Back
has given a deed to the University of Kentucky for the ten
acres of land that -was in dispute. The work on the station
will be opened in June as soon as funds can be made available
from the state appropriation.
(h) The Princeton Sub-Experiment Station. The recent
Legislature made an appropriation of $20,000 for the conduct
of a sub-experiment station at Princeton. Caldwell County.
The local authorities at Princeton are now engaged in the
purchase of land which will be transferred to the University
in a short time. Before finally settling the matter, however,
it will be necessary to procure endorsement of the Attorney
General on the title to the State University.
(i) Publication by the Research Club. The Research
Club of the University is an organization consisting of men
and women who have ena-;ged in research work and have made
contributions beyond 9:-e work they did for a degree. I have
suggested to the Research Club that they prepare for publica-
tion a volume of facts about the State of Kentucky covering
social and economic matters, such as railroad transportation,
finance, merchandising, merchandising methods, agriculture,
population, and movement of population, and facts regarding
the social and economic conditions of the State. There is
a lot of valuable information about the State of Kentucky
that ought to be compiled and put into book form, and a publi-
cation of this kind would be a contribution that would be of
considerable value. I am bringing the matter to your
attention now in order that such a publication may be author-
ized in advance, so that no difficulties may arise later
when we are ready to publish it.
A motion was made and seconded that the report of the
President be received and filed.
A motion was made, seconded, and carried that the President
be authorized to have the publication mentioned prepared and
published.
A motion was made, seconded, and carried that the President
be authorized to have plans prepared for the expansion of the
University in case the bond issue is carried, and that these
plans be printed and distributed thruout the State as a matter
Of general information to the people of the State.

3. The Gift of Miles Back of 10 Acres of Land. President
McVey indicated that the questions arising out of the Robinson
Sub-Experiment Station had been settled and that .1r. Back had
made a deed to the University for some ten acres of land which
had disposed of all the legal questions arising out of the
Robinson gift. w7hereu-con, the following resolution was offered,
seconded and approved: That the BoaQd of Trustees of the
University of Kentucky greatly appreciates the public spirit of
M'4r- Miles Back and wife, of Quicksand, Kentucky, in donating to
the University of Kentucky a tract of land for experimental
purposes. The Board of Trustees directs the Secretary of the
Board to ccnvey to Mr. Back the appreciation of the Board for
his valuable gift to the University.
4. Candidates for Degrees. Rresident McVey presented the
following list of candidates for degrees, together with a state-
ment from the Secretary of the Senate, saying that the candidates
