The President recommends the following reorganization: It is proposed to group together all of the general service departments in the institu- tion to be responsible to a manager of all service enterprises. Included in this group of activities are the College Book Store, Laundry, Mimeograph Department, Photographic Department, Service Garage, Tabulating Department* a H The manager of these services is to be responsible to the Comptroller. Where activities of any of these departments have been in the past or will be in the future used to advantage by the teaching departments, it is imderstood that every coopera- tion is to be accorded the teaching departments. Facilities are to be made available for laboratory use to the extent that it is possible to do so without seriously hampering opera- tions required to service the institution. In the case of the laundry responsibility for the management will cease to be in the Home Economics Division, but it is expected that this is not to interfere with the teaching of classes in this field and the new manager will cooperate fully. The young woman recently hired as a graduate student is to be utilized by the manager in the laundiy so that her status is not to be jeopardized. She will be responsible to the new manager of the services, however, rather than to Mrs. Ehlers. On motion of Mr. Broc^jr, seconded by Mr. Jakway* it was voted to approve this new reorganization. Agreement Kellogg Found4 40. .ation * Dept ; Education re: ;cooperative vstudios in \ rural educa- tion.

The Anrgr training program requires the Health Service staff to be on the job continuously throughout the simmer, making the usual vacations impossible. The actual payment will amount to $500 each for Dr. Holland, Dr. Atkinson, and Dr. Folkers. On motion of Mr. Akers, seconded by Mr. Brody, it was voted to authorize the above-mentioned addi- tional payments to the piysicians at the Health Service. # •. MISCELLANEOUS, continued 42.
