unanimously that the above claims be approved.
(b) Signatures, Payroll and Claims
As requested by the Board of Regents, Mr. Hayden
looked into the requirement for signatures on Uni-
versity payroll and claims, and submitted the follow-
ing:
With reference to the signatures we have been re-
quiring on payrolls and claims every month, I
have contacted both Mr. Jacobsen, Legislative
Auditor, and Mr. Carlson, State Budget Director,
and they advised me that they know of no State
regulation requiring Regents' signatures. They
further advised that they will accept any signa-
ture, or signatures, that the Board of Regents
wish to authorize.
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Hardy, car-
ried unanimously that previous resolution of the
Board requiring signatures of 3 members of the Board
of Regents on payroll and claims be rescinded, and
that all claims of the University be approved and
paid under the signature of the Comptroller, and the
President or a member of the Board of Regents.

for a total of $468,476.32 for September.

for a total of $178,670.45 for September.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Broadbent,
carried unanimously that the above claims be approved.
3. Liability Insurance
President Stout called on Mr. Hayden to give the following
report for the information of the Board:
You will recall that the Attorney General has reversed
the opinion of former Attorney General Alan Bible in
that the University is not required to carry liability
insurance.
Last July a visitor on the Campus fell on the brick
walk and broke her hip. The matter was turned over
to the Travelers Insurance Company and, upon investi-
gation by their Investigator, denied liability. At-
torney Halley contacted the Attorney General regarding
the matter and in his reply to Mr. Halley the Attorney
General stated that he had requested the University to
cancel its liability policy. I called the Attorney
General right away but he was out of town for a week.
Last Tuesday morning I called him and stated that due
to the short period of time remaining until the policy
lapsed, perhaps we could let it ride until cancellation
date, but he said that it should be cancelled. I,
therefore, returned the policy to the Travelers Insur-
ance Company with a letter saying we were requesting
cancellation as of that date. When I was in Carson
Wednesday, Mr. Dickerson flagged me down on the high-
way. I advised him of what I had done. He said that
was fine and that at a meeting of the Board of Control
a notice is coming out stating that no liability
policies are to be carried on anything other than
automobiles.
4. Candidates for Degrees
President Stout called on Dr. Wood to present the list of
candidates for degrees, effective August 23, 1957. The
list had been approved by the faculty of the College in-
dicated and by the Academic Deans. Pertinent records of
each candidate were checked and cleared as appropriate by
the Registrar and the Comptroller.
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously that the candidates be approved and that they

11. Building Program
President Stout called on Mr. Poolman. Mr. Bissell, Mr.
Hancock and Mr. Sutton of the State Planning Board were
present for this item of business.
a) Furniture - Home Economics Building - Opening of bids
was held in the President's office on Tuesday, August
30, 1957. The bids were opened by President Stout at
4 P.M. Present: Comptroller Hayden, Engineer Poolman
and representatives of the bidding firms - Mr. Armanko,
Mr. Records and Mr. Morrill.
Bids were received for tablet arm chairs and tables for
classrooms as follows:
Morrill and Machabee $6,077.99
Armanko Office Supply Company 5,951.25
Bids were received for office furniture as follows:
A. Carlisle and Company $12,343.27
Morrill and Machabee 8,099.62
Armanko Office Supply Company 8,066.41
Recommendation: Bid for tablet arm chairs and tables
for classrooms be awarded to Armanko Office Supply
Company, whose bid of $5,951.25 is the low bid. On
the office furniture I wish to recommend that the bid
be awarded to Morrill and Machabee, even though their
bid of $8,099.62 is $33.21 higher than the Armanko
bid. My reason for this is that we are equipping the
entire building and because we make purchases like
this only once in 25 to 30 years, I believe that in
awarding the bid to a supplier that handles a "One
Company" line of office furniture, we are getting
uniformity, color and size which not only makes good
looking offices, but allows for interchange of furni-
ture between offices.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ P. W. Hayden
Comptroller
Approved:
/s/ Robert C. Poolman, Engineer
/s/ M. W. Stout, President
Motion by Mr. Hardy, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously that the awarding of the bid, as per above
recommendation, be ratified.
b) Seats in Education Auditorium - Bids were opened at
4:15 P.M. by President Stout on Friday, August 23, 1957.
Present were Comptroller Hayden and representatives of
Armanko Office Supply Company and the Builders Mill and
Fixture Company. The following bids were received:
Armanko Office Supply Company $10,217.34
Builders Mill & Fixture Company 9,848.00
B. F. Shearer Company 9,600.42
Recommendation: In view of the fact that the low bid
is within the estimate prepared by this office, I
herewith recommend the acceptable of the low bid of
B. F. Shearer Company and recommend that a contract be
awarded to them immediately for this work.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Robert C. Poolman
University Engineer
Approved:
/s/ P. W. Hayden, Comptroller
/s/ M. W. Stout, President
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Elwell, carried
unanimously that the action in awarding the contract
to B. F. Shearer be ratified.
c) Floor in Education Auditorium - Bids were opened at
4:30 P.M. by M. W. Stout, President. Present: Comp-
troller Hayden and representatives of bidding firms -
Mr. Hardesty and Mr. Jones. The following bids were
received:
Hardesty and Son $3,287.00
Charles Roy Jones 3,764.80
Barnesco, Inc. 3,388.00
Recommendation: In view of the fact that the low bid
is in line with the estimate prepared by this office,
I herewith recommend the acceptance of the bid of
Hardesty and Son and recommend that a contract be pre-
pared and signed for this work immediately.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Robert C. Poolman
University Engineer
Approved:
/s/ P. W. Hayden, Comptroller
/s/ M. W. Stout, President
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Bastian, carried
unanimously that the action in awarding the contract to
Hardesty and Son be ratified.
d) Moving Quonset Huts - Bid opening for moving two Quonset
huts was held in the President's office at 4 P.M. on
Friday, August 30, 1957. Bids were opened by Engineer
Poolman as follows:
Albert W. Clayton $7,369.00
Barnesco, Inc. 6,600.00
Recommendation: Both bids received were considerably
in excess of estimates prepared in this office for
this work. This office has since consulted with the
low bidder on this work, regarding methods by which
the cost might be considerably reduced. We have found
from Barnesco, Inc., that if the concrete slab floors
in the new location of the Quonset huts is deleted
from the work, we would save $1400. It is felt that
it would be possible for us, using our own crews to
still have an opportunity to make full use of these
storage facilities in th meantime. I would therefore
recommend that the bid of Barnesco, Inc., be accepted
in the amount of $6600, and the contract for this
work be issued immediately. I would then recommend
that a change order be immediately issued deleting
from the work, the concrete slab, in the amount of
$1400. This would allow us to proceed at once with
this work.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Robert C. Poolman
University Engineer
Approved:
/s/ P. W. Hayden, Comptroller
/s/ M. W. Stout, President
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Broadbent,
carried unanimously that the action in awarding the
contract to Barnesco, Inc., be ratified.
e) Housing and Home Finance Agency - President Stout re-
ported that the Housing and Home Finance Agency advised
that a 90-day extension of time has been granted for
the filing of application for the building to be con-
structed by revenue bonds, making the new deadline date
December 10, 1957. Mr. Poolman explained plans for
interim financing.
f) Campus Master Plan - Mr. Poolman explained the Master
Plan for the Reno Campus. Mr. Bissell repeated an
offer of the Planning Board to work with the University
in preparing a Master Plan of the Campus.
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Dr. Anderson,
unanimously that the University accept the offer of the
State Planning Board.
Motion by Mr. Sawyer, seconded by Mr. Hardy, carried unani-
mously that the Regents approve the policy of handling bid
openings and awarding of bids as is being done at present,
with the provision that when it is desired not to accept
the low bid, the matter be submitted to the Board of Re-
gents.
12. Food and Drug Quarters
President Stout read a letter just received from the Vestry
of the Trinity Episcopal Church, from whom the Food and
Drug quarters are rented. The letter stated: "As owners
of this property, Trinity Episcopal Church has received
offers from other parties regarding the disposition of
same and as property values have increased in the area of
the property, along with taxes, the Vestry is of the opin-
ion that increased rentals are to be desired and are a
necessity." The Vestry proposed: (1) A lease to be en-
tered into by the responsible parties and to extend from
the date of approval until July 1, 1959 or to be terminated
sooner at the pleasure of the Board of Regents, (2) Rental
to be $350 per month and the payment of same to be effec-
tive immediately, (3) Premises to be vacated by the Food
and Drug Department at a date not later than July 1, 1959.
Mr. Bissell offered, on behalf of the Planning Board, to
assist the University in providing quarters for the Food
and Drug Department, under mutually advantageous financing.
Motion by Mr. Thompson, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously that the President be authorized to sign the
lease with the Vestry of the Trinity Episcopal Church
under the terms proposed, and that the University accept
the offer of the State Planning Board to assist in pro-
viding quarters for the Food and Drugs Control Department.
13. Board of Regents Meeting Dates
