               University of Kentucky

          Dear Presid6nt MeVoy:

               I am submitting st tement of income and
          oxpenditures for the month of Novrember.  It
          now appears that'it Tvill not be necessary to
          borrow more than $150,000 for current ex-
        . penlee.  Of that amount notes for $115 ,000
        have been executted and placed to the credit of
        the Treasurer of the University.   I am asking
        Judge Stoll to sign n note for t35,000 todey.
        JuaGe Stoll suggests that it may be well for the
        FBoaad to approve the amount of above loan.

              In event any lai'ge amount hlis to be paid
         on account of baskret ball building, I am not at
         a1l sure we sha:l.l have sufficient funds to meet
         our current expense a, and such an amount v s mav
         have to be paid on the basket bnll building, so
         it may be well for the Board today to make some
         provision for such an emergencyq

                                      Very truly yours,

                                           D. H. Peake
                                                Busi~ness 'Ag,.,,rt

President F. L. McVey
     University of Kentucky

Dear Doctor MoVey:

     I beg to submit the following memoranda re-
garding the proposed Biological Station for the
University of Kentucky:

     1. The University of Kentucky has no
field station for biological work, as have most
leading institutions in this country (e. g., the
Indiana University Biological Station at WNi~ona
Lake, the Lake Laboratory of Ohio State Univer-
sity, the Mountain Laboratory of the Univer-
sity of Colorado, the Desert Laboratory of Car-
negie Institute, the Marine Biological Labora-
tory at Woods Hole, etc.) and the Department of
Zoology is handicapped in this respect.

     2. Such a field station requires a con-
siderable tract of undeveloped country, prefers.
ably rugged, timbered, uninhabited, with primeval
natural conditions in the native fauna and flora.

     3. The tract designated as "Nbo. 6,' in the
lands given to the University by the E. 0. Robin-
son Mountain Fund is exceptionally well suited
to such a project.   It is located near Quicksand,
Kentucky, is well timbered and watered, with
attractive topographical features and unusual
biblogic resources.   It contains the largest
number of species of insects, snakes, birds and
native mammals of any section of Kentucky with
which we are familiar.

     4. 'This tract is isolated from the other
properties, is not suitable for any kind of agri-
cultural development nor extensive reforestation,
and is not favorably located for educational
projects of any other type.

     5. The Department of Zoology of the Univer-
sity therefore begs to request that it be allowed
the use of this parcel of land for the maintenance
of a biological station to be lnown as the 'TZoologisal




 






                                10.

       field Laboratory of the University of Kentucky" in
       that the following projects may be undertaken:

            (a) The establishment of a bird sanctuary and
       game preserve.
            (b) The erection of two or three rough buildings
       suitable for field laboratories and camps.   (INote:
       The material for such construction is available in
       the properties now owned by the University at Quick-
       sand and which are to be torn down.)
            (c) The opportunity for research work in Orni-
       thology, Entomology, Herpetology and cology by ad-
       vanced. students in tlhe field at all seasons of the

       yea(d) The offering of part of our Summer School
       program (particularly the bird, insect, and ecological
       work) at the station during the summer.

            The department is prepared to make suggestions
       and recommendations regarding the camp site, transpor-
       tation, conduct of Summer School classes, and adminis-
       tration, if the proposed plan is approved.

                                      Respectfully submitted
