Miscellaneous 1.' Memoir ordered spread on the permanent records for Dean Eoward C. Bather: In the death of Howard Christian Bather on December 28f 1950, Michigan State College was deprived of the services of one of its most distinguished alumni and most versatile adminis- trators. He graduated from this college in 191? and» after a period of distinguished military service* he became an Agricultural Extension Specialist in Farm Crops in 1920. Eight years :latex? he began his career as a teacher and research leader as Professor of Parm Crops. Despite his close application to his duties, a prolific output of scientific literature, and extensive travel in pursuit of greater'knowledge .in his field, he found time to devote to worthy civic enterprises and to help plan for the development of Michigan State College. Memoir for Dean Howard C. Bather spread on records Because of his deep convictions, contagious enthusiasm, kindliness and fare perseverance, he-was more responsible than any other man for the establishment of the Basic College and its Development as a successful pioneering venture in higher education. Dean of the Basic College since its establishment in 19^» he displayed rare qualities of leadership and administrative abilities of high order in recruiting and integrating an outstanding faculty for his school, and warm kindliness and friendliness for the students under his jurisdiction. He was often called upon to serve in other positions of responsibility simultaneously, such as a member of the Athletic Council, as chairman of the Committee on Student Eligibility, and as Chairman of the All-College Educational Besearch Committee. Such men are not easily replaced physically, and the State Board of Agriculture formally records its sense of loss; such men are never forgotten, and the members of the Board extend to the members of his family their sincere synipathy in their personal loss, which is mitigated 'by the knowledge that he made a record on this campus that will always be an inspiration to those who follow him* Change in dates of leave of absence for Warren E. Vincent, Assistant Professor (intension) of Agricultural Economics* from one year beginning March 1..1951* to one year beginning July 1,1951 Change in status of Mrs. Bath C# Barrett, temporary Instructor in Written and Spoken English, from full time at $300 per month to part-time at $200 per month, effective January 1, 1951 • Increase in salary for Mary Bolanos$ Assistant in.Foreign Languages! from $150 to $160 per month effective January 1, 1951* iDate of leave Warrent Vin- icent changed jChange in |status Hath |Barrett I Salary inc. .JMary Bolanos j Salary inc. yJulio Isch Increase in salary for Julio.

On motion of Mr. Brody, seconded by Mr. Mueller, it was voted to approve the foregoing Additional Items. SPECIAL MISCELLANEOUS 1. The following letter has been received from Mr. May: "I have also received a check in the amount of $500 from Mr. H. G. Scobell on the $2500 mortgage which came to the College as part of the Srb Estate. You will recall that the Board previously declined to settle this mortgage for $1250. At that time Mr. Scobell indi- cated he would be in no position to make payments on the mortgage and that we would probably have to wait for his estate to be settled. He has paid the interest promptly semi-annually, and each time I have acknowledged the interest payment and urged him to start making payments on the mortgage. In his letter transmitting the $500, he has offered to sell some/.war bonds if the Board will approve a discount of'15$ of. the balance> which would amount to $300. "I think that we will ultimately collect the full $2,000, but I would also anticipate that we may find ourselves involved in the settlement of an estate for part of our claim as Mr. Scobell !s health has 'been poor. I therefore think that we should discuss with the Board the advisability of accepting $1700 in full settlement of the $2,000 balance owed 'by Mr. Scobell.n Transfer of property at corner Mt. H & Harrison approved. Discussion of Animal Industries building. On motion of Miss Jones» seconded by Mr. Mueller, it was voted to authorize Mr. May to accept a cash settlement from Mr. Scobell on the basis of a 15$ discount. 2. Secretary McDonel discussed with the Board some of the problems involved in getting a clear title to the site at the corner of Mt. Hope and Harrison Road, occupied by the old district school. The college attorney recoirmiends that the Board conclude the transfer from the East Lansing School Board, making no effort at this time to clarify the title. On motion of Miss Jones, seconded by Mr. Brody, it was voted to approve the recommendation of the college attorney with the understanding that the College will retain title to this property in- definitely and that it is not to be iaade available to the U; 5. Regional Poultry Laboratory for their use. 3. Discussion of the Animal Industries Building and the activities of the Michigan AgriculturaX Conference, including the possibility of borrowing funds from the federal government to ggy for the preparation of plans and specifications• On motion of Mr. Mueller, seconded by Miss Jones, it was voted to express the appreciation of the Board to the Agricultural Conference for their interest in and efforts on behalf of the desired Animal Industries Building. The Board assures the Conference that it will do everything it can to expedite the preparation of plans for this building so that when the legislature makes the required appropriations there will be no delay in getting it under way so that it may be avail- able to serve MichiganTs Agriculture at the earliest possible time.
