12. Anonymous Gift to Support a Nevada Archaeology Program
President Armstrong read to the Board the following letter
from Mr. Humphrey, with his recommendation that the sugges-
tion contained therein by approved by the Board.
"As you know, a gift of $100,000 is to be made to Univer-
sity of Nevada over a three year period to support a Nevada
Archaeology Program. The first installment of $50,000 will
be made shortly.
"This gift is in the form of stock presently held by the
donor. The transaction is being handled by United States
Trust Company of New York. They have offered to open a
temporary account for the University, sell stocks necess-
ary to secure exactly $50,000 and remit the proceeds to us
by check. This is less cumbersome than our usual procedure
of having stock transferred to Grant and Company (nominee
of First National Bank of Nevada) and then selling.
"I suggest that the Board of Regents approve acceptance of
the gift, authorize establishment of the temporary account
at United States Trust Company of New York and authorize
them to sell the stock immediately upon receipt."
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Davis, carried
unanimously that the President's recommendation be approved.
13. Henry W. Albert Endowment
President Armstrong explained that the University has had
for some years a small endowment fund, made available under
the terms of the will of Henry Albert, from which two cash
awards are made annually to outstanding students on the
basis of scholarship, character and service to the Univer-
sity or community. He added the University will now receive
an additional $500 to be added to the corpus of the endow-
ment and the income used for the same purpose. President
Armstrong recommended the acceptance of this bequest and
agreement to continue to adhere to the terms of the
endowment.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
unanimously that the President's recommendation be approved.
14. Transfer of Funds
President Armstrong reported the following transfers of less
than $2,000:
#240 $435 from Teaching and Resource Center to Contingency
Reserve. This amount was inadvertently transferred
from the Contingency Reserve to the Teaching and
Resource Center, Classified Salaries (transfer #110).
The State Appropriation to the Teaching and Resource
Center is separate from Fund One and therefore,
transfers cannot be made from Fund One.
#241 $80 from Contingency Reserve to Institutional
memberships to adjust account.
#242 $232 from Contingency Reserve to Business Office,
Nevada Southern University, to provide money for auto
mileage for banking and other business away from NSU
Campus and office supplies and telephone charges.
#257 $923.44 from Audio-Visual Communications to Contin-
gency Reserve. This represents a savings in Technical
salaries.
President Armstrong recommended approval of the following
transfer of more than $2,000:
#256 $4,000 from Buildings and Grounds Repairs and Improve-
ments to Postage, Reno to provide funds for balance
of fiscal year 1965-66.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
unanimously that the above transfers be approved.
President Armstrong recommended approval of the transfer of
$375 from fund 2-41-4032 to the President's Discretionary
Fund, 1-51-4008, to cover interview expenses for NSU.
Motion by Mrs. Magee, seconded by Dr. White, carried
unanimously that the above transfer be approved.
15. Resolution #66-7
President Armstrong recommended that the following resolu-
tion be adopted:
RESOLUTION #66-7
WHEREAS, Robert M. Moyers, formerly University Buyer, was
authorized by the Board of Regents to sign all purchase
orders to acquire surplus property for the University of
Nevada under the provisions of the surplus property utili-
zation program of the U. S. Department of Health, Education
and Welfare; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Mr. Jeffers be hereby
authorized by the Board of Regents to sign all purchase
orders issued under the provisions of the surplus property
utilization program of the U. S. Department of Health,
Education and Welfare.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. White, carried
unanimously that the above resolution be adopted.
16. Approval of Check Registers
President Armstrong recommended that the check registers,
as submitted by Mr. Humphrey, be approved.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
by roll call vote that the check registers be approved.
17. Next Meeting
Upon motion by Mr. Jacobsen, it was unanimously voted that
no meeting of the Board be held in May. The next meeting
of the Board will be June 10, 1966 on the Reno Campus.
