President Clark reported on the repairs and improvements being
carried on during the Summer in the Electrical building and
the Gymnasium.

Judge Talbot arrived.

Mr. North reported a plan of Mrs. J. A. Van Nagle (nee Cora
Manning) whereby, through payments on a life insurance policy
by Miss Milner, the initial premium on which was paid by Mrs.
Van Nagle and the second premium on which she is willing to
pay, there shall be established at the University the A. H.
Manning Scholarship Fund of $500, which is to be given in 5
$100 scholarships annually to some boy working his way through
College, who has completed his Junior year and who receives no
other scholarship.  As money is paid in excess of this $500,
there shall be established the Elizabeth Manning Fund for loans
to girls only who are working their way through College.

After some discussion and on motion of Mr. North, it was de-
cided that President Clark, Mrs. Van Nagle and Miss Milner
should meet together to decide on some plan with regard to
this matter, the President then to report back to the Regents,
it being definitely understood:

    (1)  That the Regents will not undertake to pay any
         premiums on this life insurance policy held by
         Miss Milner;

    (2)  That, while the Regents will be glad to receive any
         moneys paid by Miss Milner, they will not in any
         circumstance act as a collecting agency;

    (3)  That Mr. North would take care of the interests of
         the Regents in changing the 10-year $1000 endowment
         policy now held by Miss Milner to a term policy.

Vote:

    Mrs. Hood            Aye
    Mr. North            Aye
    Mr. Pratt            Aye

Adjourned.
