Communication from Mr. Carr, as follows: On September 12, 1966, we received notice that a hearing was scheduled in Detroit for the admission of the Last Will and Testament of Bertha M. Wahlen, deceased, and that the University was named as residuary legatee. Upon securing the Will itself, we learned that Mrs. Wahlen had devised her real estate, consisting of parcels located on the Northwest and Southwest corners of Third and Selden Streets in Detroit, to her sister, Dorothy Damm. The residue was given "to the Board of Trustees of Michigan State University ... as a Scholarship fund to be administered by the Faculty Committee on Scholarships for the purpose of assisting worthy and deserving students to obtain an education at Michigan State University upon a showing of genuine need under circumstances which would deny such education and the benefits incident thereto with- out such support." The proponent for the Will indicated that the value of the scholarship fund would aggregate something a little in excess of $20,000. The decedent's niece, Marvel Fleckenstein, and the son of her half-brother, William W. Damm, through attorney Royden E. Jones, filed objections to the admission of the Will based primarily upon a claim of extraordinary services to Mrs. Wahlen for the past several years before her decease. Following intervention by the Charitable Trusts Division of the Attorney General's Office, an agreement was worked out that the disappointed collateral heirs could file a composite claim against the estate for an amount not to exceed $3,000; subject, of course, to the approval of the Probate Judge. We have executed the Stipulation and are forwarding it to counsel for the proponent, Counsel for the National Bank of Detroit, as the Executor named in the Will, counsel for the contestants, etc., and, following approval, this matter should carry through to completion without further complication. In short, the University will realize its $20,000 bequest, and this money should be available for use about the end of the current school year* We have been grateful for the cooperation of Assistant Attorney General Edwin M. Bladen. The report is submitted so that you and the Trustees will have knowledge of the matter if questions are addressed to you by the participants or other interested parties.

I Mr. Harlan did not vote on this motion because of his connection with Central Electric Motor & \ Construction Company that received the contract for the electrical work. 40. On January 6 the following bids were received for construction of the North Campus Substation: General Contractor Ackerman Construction Reniger Construction Hanel-Vance Construction Mechanical Contractor Bosch Plumbing & Heating L o me Plumbing & Heating $107,536 138,637 150,000 15,511 25,100 Electrical Contractor (Fixed Fee Base Bid Based on $100,000 Volume of Work Hall Electric Company Hatzel-Buehler Electric Central Electric Root Electric 21,000 22,622 30,800 34,000 The work covered by these bids includes removal of the remaining North Campus Power Plant buildings, construction of a new vault below ground to house switchgear, and related expenses for the renovation of the substation. Funds have previously been provided for the work. This work was previously bid on November 9, and all bids were rejected because costs far exceeded estimates. Plans have been reworked, and we now have firm bids for general architectural and mechanical work. The electrical contract involves work which was almost impossible to detail and which must, of necessity, be scheduled as to cause the least interference with campus operations. This will involve overtime work which could not be detailed. It was, therefore, decided that we would save considerable money if we took bids on a fixed fee basis for work estimated to cost not more than $100,000. The use of the fixed fee contract for construction work is a departure from our general practice but seems justified under the circumstances. It is recommended that contracts be awarded the low bidders, as follows: Ackerman Construction (includes Bosch Plumbing & Heating bid of $15,511) Hall Electric $123,047 21,000 On motion by Mr. Nisbet, seconded by Mr. Stevens, it was voted to approve the above item. Report on Will of Henry Wigman 41. Henry W. Wigman, long-time friend of this University and a prominent dairyman, in his will provided certain bequests with the income to his widow for her life and with $10,000 to be made available to the Board of Trustees on her death to provide for scholarships for Michigan State University students. Mrs. Wigman died in July 1966. The University has been advised that it will soon receive the $10,000 bequest. Report on Will of Ormond E. Hunt It is recommended that this money shall be used for the establishment of a Henry W. Wigman Scholarship Fund with the income to be used to provide scholarships to defray the tuition of deserving and needy students studying agriculture at Michigan State University, with preference to be given to students studying dairy science, either credit courses or applied short courses. These scholarship awards are to be nominated by the Office of the Dean of" Agriculture. 42. The attention of the Board is called to the recent death of Ormond E. Hunt. In 1939 Mr. Ormond E. Hunt gave to the University a tract of land in the City of Ann Arbor to be converted into money for the purpose of establishing the Edson Hale Hunt Scholarship Fund named for Mr. Hunt's father who graduated from M.A.C. with the class of 1877, with the income to be used for scholarships for needy students in agricultural and horticultural courses. Prior to Mr. Hunt's death, he invited the President of the University to visit him, and in this conversation he wanted to make it clear that if in the distant future the objectives that he had in mind could be better served by changing the wording of these awards, that would be agreeable to him. He restated his intent to be that these scholarship awards should be for young men from rural areas or small towns. i NEW BUSINESS, continued Miscellaneous/ continued 43.

Communication from the State Soil Conservation Committee: The Soil Conservation Committee for the State of Michigan wishes to reaffirm its support for a new Agronomy Building at Michigan State University. The Committee is cognizant of the increasing pressures which a?e being placed upon the land resources of this country. A world food crisis is at hand. It is evident that there exists a severe shortage in trained agronomists to provide leadership in the multiple fields of producing, marketing, transporting and processing vital food and fibre. We understand that the enrollment of graduate students in Soil Science and Crop Science has rapidly increased during recent years. However, these numbers are still far from acfejuate to.meet the need. Likewise, we are told that facilities,at the University to train these scientists have not kept pace with student numbers. In order to adequately carry out the increasing responsibility in this area, it will be necessary to provide additional research, teaching and extension,facilities. It is our opinion that a new Agronomy Building at the University is long overdue and that such facilities will help the University and its cooperating agencies and organizations meet this critical need for food and fibre.
