     3. Widening Limestone Street North of Euclid Avenue.

     The Board of Trustees of the University of Kentucky at the
meeting of December 14, 1933, accepted the proposal of the City
of Lexington, Kentucky, to widen Limestone Street and, by resolu-
tion, authorized the grant of a strip of land twenty feet wide
along the bqindary of the University property on the east side of
that street.   Pursuant  to that resolution, conveyance, recorded
in the Minutes of the Executive Committee of February 24, 1934,
was made to the City of Lexington for the purposes aforesaid of a
strip 20 feet wide along the east side of Limestone Street extend-
ing from Euclid Avenue to the south boundary of the University
campus at the De Hore property, and the work was completed over
that boundary.   At that time the project to vriden the street
north of Euclid Avenue was abandoned because right of way over the
Woolley property had not been secured.

     The City of Lexington, Kentucky, has renewed its request for
right of way over University of Kentucky property, extending from
Euclid Avenue north to the Woolley property and adjoining east
side of Limestone Street.   On motion and second the following res-
olution was passed.

     The proposal of the City of Lexington, Kentucky, to widen
South Limestone Street from Euclid Avenue north to the Woolley
property over property of the University of Kentucky is hereby
approved, and the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Uni-
versity of Kentucky is hereby authorized to convey to the City of
Lexington, Kentucky, for said purpose, provided there is legal
right of the University of Kentucky to make such conveyance, the
following described property:

          Beginning at the intersection of the east line of
     South Limestone Street with the north line of Euclid

     This inventory represented a deduction from the figure at
which the University investment in the Book Store was carried on
the University books Decembher 31, 1930, at $4,544.88.  It was
based upon an actual count and an agreed valuation between the
University and Mr. Morris.   Mr. Morris assumed the obligation
of returning to the University upon termination of his contract
with the University, an inventory of equal value subject to normal
wear and tear.   In event of reduction of the inventory through
sale, in the meantime, he agreed to pay the University for such
decrease, thus decreasing the extent of his responsibility.

     On sales, other than to.University departments and of con-
signed goods, Mr. Morris agreed to pay the University 1Q% of the
sale price as its commission.   This sales figure was to include
the one-half allowed Mr. Morris on cap and gown rentals.

     During.the four years under management of Mr. Morris sales
and his one-half of cap and.gown rentals have amounted to
$260,951.95.   Sales of consigned goods amounting to.$9,442.70
are included in this figure.. The amount accruing to the Univer-
sity-under the 10% provision of the contract with Mr. Morris has
in this time totaled $25,150.92.   This constitutes a return of
$6,282.73 annually on the average as a return on the original in-
vestment of $41,653.61.

     The $25,150.92 given above has not been a net return to the
University, however.   During the four years under consideration
it has been found desirable to reduce the value placed upon certain
elements in the inventory with which Mr. Morris was charged. Such
reductions total $9,436.87 making a total of 2l3,98l.75 by which
the carrying yalue of $45,198.49 at the Book Store was carried
December 31, 1930, has been cut to provide for unsalable or over-
stocked goods.   However, the University investment in the Book
Store has not been decreased by this amount.   Mr..Morris has been
authorized to retain $6,746.67 of the commission accruing to the
University for purposes of adding to the inventory.    Thus the
actual cash return to the University during the four years has
been $18,404.25, of which Mr. Morris now owes the University
$3,693.04 which is commission principally for the last six months
of 1934.   This does not include the University's one-half of cap
and gown rentals, mention of which is made below.

     Considering the net return to the University and disregarding
depreciation on fixtures and caps and gowns there has been an av-
erage annual return of $4,601.04 on an original investment of
$41,653.61.   This amounts to approximately 11%.    In addition,
the inventory has been cleared of nearly $7,000 in old stock and
new, salable stock placed in its stead.

     In addition to the above, the University has during the past
four years, from its one-half of cap and gown rentals,.entirely
recovered the balance at which they were carried December 31, 1930,
and now has a net return on them of approximately 8400.    This
amounts to a total return of nearly 83,000 from this source.

     Mr. Morris was accountable December 31, 193A, for an invento-
ry of merchandise.of $33,256.36, fixtures $3,132.05, and capsanad
gowns 82,575.00.   This is a total of $38,963.41.   This is a re-
duction of 82,690,20 from the original inventory charged him and
is due to approved mark-downs in inventory not replaced by com-
missions withheld.   The University on December 31, 1934, was
carrying the book store, including merchandise and fixtures at
$25,256.98.  Upon final settlement for 1934 by Mr. Morris this
will be reduced to $21,563.94.

     This report has not taken into account the cap and gown rent-
als accruing to Mr. Morris since the last settlement on this ac-
count in the summer of 1934.   It is otherwise complete to Decem-
ber 31, 1935, and assumes the acceptance by the Book Store Com-
mittee of the report of Mrr. IMorris for the last six months of 1934.

8. Room Rent, I-en's Halls.

Statement by Dean Jones:

     Room rent from the men's halls for the first
semester of last year was 7)6221 51; for the first
semester of tais year the rent was ;8419.97 with
small balances still to be collected..  The rule
requiring freshmen to live in the halls or in fra-
ternity houses does not work so well since we do not
have enough rooms to mnake it operative for all.   Con-
sequently we must rely on salesmanship and strees thie
reasonable price of the rooms, convenience of loca-
tion of the halls, the heat, light, baths and service,
including medical attention.   At present the halls
are filled to capacity.

     As you lknow,, the quarters in Kinkead Hall are
in suites of two rooms each and are much preferred
by students.   Next year we slhould like to charge
Y50 per man (two in a suite) per semester for tGese
quarters.   This is relatively about the right price,
and boys will be less displeased at not securing the
rooms if the price is .igher,




 





17.



     On motion and second the Dean of Men was authorized to fix
the rental of the suites of rooms in Kinkead Hall after the close
of this semester at $50.00 per man (two in a suite) per semester.


     9. Investment of Student Loan Funds.

     Statement by Dean Jones:

          On February 1st we had 93136.73*in the Student Loan
     Fund. This plus the 89200 in State Warrants makes a
     good beginning for our new loan fund.   For the investment
     of this money I merely suggest that you consider Lexington
     Water Works 5.1% bonds of 1940.  The investment rating of
     these bonds has greatly improved with the new valuation
     put upon the Company by appraisers.

     On motion and second the Treasurer and Business Agent were di-
rected to invest as far as possible the amount of uninvested Stu-
dent Loan Funds in bonds of the Lexington Water Company.


    10. Comment on Registration System.

    The Registrar in a letter to President MoVey presented some
phases of the system of student registration that need attention
for revi
