I recommend that V. E. Scott's advance in salary be $600
from July 1, 1920, in place of the $250 named in my May list.
This change is necessary because of withdrawal in June of
certain Department of Agriculture funds, given heretofore.
Professor Scott will teach all year instead of half year by
the new plan.

July 1 the President and the Board of Regents received from the
U. S. Interdepartmental Social Hygiene Board the voucher and
budget for $6000 for the University's Department of Physical
Education.

precious metals will be moved from Colorado to Reno, the contract
having been signed already by the University officials and the

Nevada location and the plans for the housing of the station
which were drawn while they were here during the past week.
