                 Committee Action July 31, 1926

List No. 7, Regents Checks, Nos. 6072 to 6079 for the net sum
of $32,613.19, and List No. 20, State Claims, Nos. 211 to 225,
for the net sum of $34,562.25, were, on motion of Regent Pratt,
approved by the following vote:

    Mrs. Hood            Aye
    Judge Talbot         Aye
    Mr. Pratt            Aye

On the recommendation of Professor Stanley Palmer, Vice Presi-
dent Adams recommended that Otis J. Mithoug, a graduate of the
University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, be elected In-
structor in Electrical Engineering at a salary of $1800 for the
University year beginning August 1, 1926.  Since the next Board
meeting is scheduled for the 31st of August, a week after the
beginning of the semester, and since Professor Palmer has just
been able to complete negotiations with Mr. Mithoug, the matter
needs action at this time in order that Mr. Mithoug may be ad-
vised of the Board's action prior to the opening of the Uni-
versity.  Chairman Pratt moved the acceptance of Dr. Adams'
recommendation.  Vote:

    Mrs. Hood            Aye
    Judge Talbot         Aye
    Mr. Pratt            Aye
