4. Request for Easement
President Zorn reported that Central Telephone Company had
requested an easement for the installation of underground
cables in the general location of Flamingo Street and
Swenson Street. He noted that this would be to provide
service to the northern and eastern areas of the Campus
and recommended approval. Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the easement be granted.
5. Request for Vacation of Swenson Street
President Zorn recalled that the University presently has a
request before the Clark County Commissioners for the vaca-
tion of Swenson Lane easement which runs through the area
of the UNLV Campus where it is planned that development of
the athletic fields will occur. Dr. Zorn noted that this
request is still under consideration by the Commissioners
but that there are indications that its importance has been
recognized through editorial support in a local newspaper
and by expressions of support by the Chamber of Commerce.
He noted further that the Chamber of Commerce has scheduled
a meeting on October 15 to review some of the zoning prob-
lems as they now, or may in the future, affect the Campus.
He urged attendance at this meeting by members of the Board.
6. Approval of Purchase in Excess of $5000
President Zorn reported that the following bids were re-
ceived September 15 for the purchase of an industrial
tractor, wheel type with front loader and backhoe:
Arizona Industrial, Phoenix, Arizona $12,699.99
Southern Equipment, San Diego 10,863.43
Bat Rental, Las Vegas 8,099.74
Blystone Equipment, Las Vegas 7,996.20
Advance Equipment, Las Vegas 7,777.00
President Zorn recommended that the bid of Advance Equip-
ment, in the abount of $7777, be accepted. Chancellor
Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
7. Request for Funds for Purchase of Motor Pool Vehicles, UNLV
President Zorn reviewed the status of the UNLV Motor Pool,
noting that there is an acute need to replace several off-
the-road vehicles because of high maintenance costs to
keep them operating. He endorsed a recommendation by the
Business Office that 2 new 4-wheel drive vehicles be pur-
chased at an estimated cost of $7500.
Dr. Zorn noted that his original request had been for a
loan from non-appropriated sources; however, following a
recommendation by the Chancellor, he requested that the
required $7500 be appropriated from the Board of Regents
Special Projects Fund as a grant rather than a loan.
Chancellor Humphrey concurred, noting that this grant
should properly establish the motor pool at UNLV and with
the new higher rates for use of the motor pool which had
been approved by President Zorn, the pool should become
self-supporting and not require further subsidy.
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
8. New Department of Special Education, UNLV
President Zorn recalled that in September the Board gave
preliminary approval to a proposal that the existing
program in Special Education within the College of Educa-
tion, UNLV, be established as a new Department. Dr. Zorn
stated that, in accordance with the Board's policy, this
proposal was again submitted for consideration with final
approval recommended.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the new Department be approved as
recommended.
9. Candidates for Graduation, UNLV

quested a report be made at a future meeting concerning
black studies presently offered at each Campus. Dr. Miller
presented a report prepared by the UNR Human Relations
Commission on courses offered now or that might be contem-
plated in these areas. (Report is identified as Ref. F and
is filed with permanent minutes.) Dr. Miller noted that
additional information on this subject would be submitted
from time to time.
Dr. Zorn stated that a similar report would be submitted
on behalf of UNLV at the November meeting.

cepted and the U. S. Government be designated as the pur-
chaser of the revenue bonds in the amount of $1,651,000
at an interest rate of 3%. He also recommended adoption
of the following post sale resolution as prepared by the
bond attorney:

HEREWITH.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the above recommendations be approved.
13. Financial Report for 1969-70, DRI
Chancellor Humphrey reported that the final financial state-
ment for 1968-69 for DRI had not been completed at the time
of the agenda preparation. Therefore, he said, it was not
feasible to revise the financial plan for 1969-70. He stat-
ed that both documents will be completed and ready for re-
view at the November meeting.
Dr. Anderson and Mr. Warburton entered the meeting.
14. Elko Community College Advisory Board Report
Chancellor Humphrey reported that the Elko Community College
Advisory Board had met on September 18 and again on Septem-
ber 25. He stated that there were no actions to report
except for the resignation of Mr. Willard Schultz of Wells,
who had moved out of State. Recommendations for a replace-
ment would be presented at the November meeting.
15. UNR-DRI Financial Agreement for Fiscal 1969-70

Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval, with the condition
that the net due UNR of $173,546 may be reduced to $168,000
by the provision by DRI of additional services to UNR, such
as teaching, in the amount of $5,546.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Bell, carried with-
out dissent that the financial agreement be approved as
presented.
16. Approval of Preliminary Plans for Physical Science Complex,
Phase II (Physics Building), UNR
Mr. Pine presented the preliminary plans for this project,
noting that plans have been reviewed and approved by the
Campus committee, by his office and by the State Planning
Board. Mr. Pine recommended approval by the Board of
Regents. President Miller concurred.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the preliminary
plans as presented, noting the breakdown of the funding of
the project, as follows:
General Funds $ 165,400
General Obligation Bonds 221,638
University Revenue Bonds 1,900,000
Federal Grant 334,962
University Capital Improvement
Fee Funds 350,000
Total $2,972,000
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Anderson, carried
without dissent that the preliminary plans be approved as
presented.
17. Bid Openings
A. Mr. Pine reported that bids were opened September 19,
1969, for the construction of various sewer lines at
the 4-H Campus, Lake Tahoe. Bids were as follows:
Terry Construction Co. $ 9,833.00
Harker & Harker, Inc. 11,383.60
Mr. Pine noted that the bids had been reviewed by the
College of Agriculture. He recommended the bid of
Terry Construction in the amount of $9833 be accepted.
President Miller and Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, car-
ried without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
B. Mr. Pine reported that bids were opened on September 30,
1969, for the purchase of a self-contained 15-ton air
conditioning unit to be installed in the Computer Center
of the Water Resources building. Bids were as follows:
Liskey Aluminum, Baltimore, Maryland $ 6,026
A. H. K. Corp, Carmichael, California 7,150
Westinghouse Systems Division, Michigan 7,196
A. H. K. Corp, Carmichael, California (alt) 7,569
John Rauch Refrigeration, Reno 12,820
Mr. Pine reported that neither Liskey Aluminum nor
A. H. K. Corp. met the specifications as stipulated
and recommended the bid of Westinghouse Systems Div.
be accepted. President Miller and Chancellor Humphrey
concurred.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Bell, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
18. Approval of Purchase in Excess of $5000
Mr. Pine reported that the College of Business Administra-
tion, UNR, has requested authorization to purchase 7 elec-
tronic calculators from Friden, Inc., at a total price of
$7068. However, as part of the transaction, Friden, Inc.,
a division of Singer, as part of a participating program
with educational institutions, has authorized a gift of
$3000 to the University, resulting in a net price of $4068.
He noted that funds are available in the Department's oper-
ating budget and recommended approval of the purchase.
President Miller and Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
19. Plant and Property, UNR
A. Mr. Pine recommended that authority be granted to have
the grocery store building at the northeast corner of
Artemisia Way and Sierra Street demolished. He noted
that the condition of the building is such that safety
and building code requirements cannot be met without
major remodeling. The area, when cleared, will be
used temporarily for parking. Mr. Pine further noted
the plan has been to also remove the houses on Sierra
and the small residence on Artemisia Way between the
grocery store and the parking (or playground) area and
to landscape the entire area. This will be feasible,
he said, in the Summer of 1970.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that approval be granted
to remove the grocery store immediately and the other
structures in July 1970.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, car-
ried without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
B. President Miller recalled that in September the Board
voted to table action on the sale of two buildings
located at the Newlands Field Laboratory until in-
formation could be presented on the reason for the
disposal of the buildings and whether or not more
than the one bid reported (from Mr. Charles York of
Fallon for $1500) had been received.
President Miller referred to a report from Dr. Ray
Ely concerning the condition of the buildings and
the reason for their disposal. (Report is identified
as Ref. H, and filed with the permanent minutes.)
Mr. Pine reported that in addition to the bid from Mr.
York of $1500 for both buildings, a Mr. Wall of Fallon
bid $300 for the larger of the two houses. His bid was
rejected. Mr. Pine also noted that the sale was an
open auction with the bidding done orally.
He recommended the bid of Mr. Charles York, in the
amount of $1500 be accepted. President Miller and
Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, car-
ried without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
C. Mr. Pine presented a progress report on the capital
improvement projects under the supervision of the
University.
D. Mr. Pine reported that a sewer line is presently being
constructed across the Main Station Farm by the City
of Reno with a completion date of October 1. He said
that the contractor has requested an extension of 30
days. Mr. Pine noted that such an extension will delay
planting and will cause additional costs to the College
of Agriculture. He recommended that he be authorized
to negotiate the requested extension of time and that
the settlement be subject to the approval of the College
of Agriculture and the Board of Regents. Part of the
negotiations, he said, would be consideration of the
costs of certain connections required by the College.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Bell, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
20. Report on Negotiations with State Highway Department Con-
cerning Widening of North Virginia Street
Mr. Pine reported that negotiations with the State Highway
Department have resulted in that agency agreeing to con-
struct an overpass over Highway 395 between Nye Hall and
the Campus. The City of Reno has also approved, he said,
traffic speed controls for that portion of North Virginia
which passes the Campus.
21. Institutional Memberships
Chancellor Humphrey recalled that in June, a list of insti-
tutional memberships held by one or more Divisions of the
University System was distributed for information with the
understanding that a supplemental list would be presented
at a later meeting reflecting allocation of these member-
ships by Division. He presented a list of 1968-69 member-
ships proposed for continuance and new memberships pro-
posed for 1969-70 with his recommendation for approval by
the Board. (List identified as Ref. K and filed with
permanent minutes.)
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the membership list be approved as
presented.
22. Analysis of Salary Increases in Extension and Evening
Division Programs
Chancellor Humphrey noted that in September when the in-
crease in salaries for teachers in Extension and Evening
Division programs was approved, the Board expressed concern
that such an increase might result in an increase in fees
or in some reduction in the number of courses that could
be offered. He reported that this problem is currently
being studied in depth and a complete report will be made
in November.
23. Proposed Calendar of 1970 Meetings
Chancellor Humphrey presented a proposed 1970 Meeting
Calendar which had been developed by the Advisory Cabinet
for review by the Board and action at the November meeting.
There was discussion of a possible meeting in Elko, perhaps
in October, and it was agreed that this possibility would be
pursued and a report on possible travel arrangements made
at the November meeting.
24. Professional Personnel Procedures
Mr. Hug noted that he had requested the Presidents and
Director Warburton to ask each Dean or Director to file a
report concerning the existing policy of each College for
employment of new faculty; specifically, the policy as to
interviews, letters of reference, previous employment
record checks, etc. He also noted that he had requested
the Deans to report whether or not the policy was followed
in each case of new faculty employed for 1969-70, and if
it was not, what the circumstances were for non-obsrvance
of the policy. The reports are to be made to the Board
at the November meeting.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, carried without
dissent that the following item be added to the agenda.
25. Mr. Bilbray stated that he wished to have the Board of
Regents recommend that if a Special Meeting of the Legis-
lature is called that Governor Paul Laxalt include the
Athletic Complex (UNLV) as a matter before the Special
Session of the Legislature, adding that this item is next
on the priority list following the Humanites building, UNLV.
Mr. Humphrey pointed out that the existing authorized Capi-
tal Improvement Program includes 20 projects, 9 of which
have been funded by the 1969 Legislature. The 10th pri-
ority is an athletic field and swimming pool for UNLV and
the 15th is a gymnasium for UNLV.
He noted that requesting inclusion on the Special Session
agenda for the entire complex would be contrary to the
priority list adopted by the Board of Regents.
Dr. Anderson expressed concern that some of the already
approved projects required revenue bonds and might be in
funding difficulties. He suggested that any request of
a Special Session first include assistance for these
buildings.
Mr. Jacobsen pointed out that a request to the Legislature
as recommended by Mr. Bilbray would violate the priority
list as adopted and suggested that this matter be referred
to the Administration for a review and recommendation.
Mr. Bilbray objected, stating that delay was unnecessary
since everyone already knew what the top priority need
was. Mr. Jacobsen suggested that the needs of the entire
System must be considered.
Dr. Zorn stated that if it is a matter of urgency to as-
sure that it be included on a Special Session agenda, he
was prepared to state that the Physical Education Complex
was a very high priority at UNLV.
Chancellor Humphrey asked if Dr. Zorn was referring only
to Item #10. Dr. Zorn said that project #10 was most
acute, but UNLV also needs a gymnasium (i. e., priority
#15).
Chancellor Humphrey referred to other priorities on the
Capital Improvement List, noting that 4 other projects
appear between the UNLV athletic fields and the gymnasium.
Mr. Jacobsen asked if this matter had been discussed by
the two Presidents and by the Chancellor. It was deter-
mined that it had not. Mr. Jacobsen urged that the matter
have staff review before the Board took any action.
Mr. Hug agreed, stating that he did not believe the
Capital Improvement Program should be altered until it
had been reviewed by the Administration, at the Campus
and the System levels.
Mr. Bilbray asked for a resolution favoring a Special
Session. Dr. Anderson moved that in the event a Special
Session is called, the Governor be requested to consider
the University's buildings program. Motion seconded by
Mr. Bilbray, carried without dissent.
Mr. Jacobsen moved that Mr. Bilbray's recommendation
(that an Athletic Complex be requested for UNLV) be referred
to the Administration and that it go through the normal
channels for review and that a report be made to the Board
in November. Motion seconded by Mr. Grant.
Mr. Hug suggested that the Presidents and the Chancellor
consider the priority of building projects to be submitted
to a possible Special Session. Mr. Warburton asked if this
discussion would be restricted to capital improvements. It
was determined that it would not be and that DRI would be
included in discussion of possible requests for consider-
ation by a Special Session of the Legislature.
Mr. Jacobsen's motion carried without dissent.
26. Report Concerning Current Enrollment
Chancellor Humphrey presented a report prepared by the
Institutional Studies Officer concerning current enroll-
ment data for both Campuses. (Report filed with permanent
minutes.)
27. Report of Average Salary Comparisons
Chancellor Humphrey also presented a report showing the
average salary comparisons within the University of Nevada
System and a letter from Mr. K. Donald Jessup, Institutional
Studies Officer, analyzing the differences in average salary
between UNR and UNLV. (Both documents filed with permanent
minutes.)
Upon motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, the follow-
ing item was added to the agenda:
28. Approval of Purchase in Excess of $5000
Mr. Pine reported that bids were opened September 25, 1969
for semiannual purchases of canned fruits and vegetables.
The bids are to be awarded on a low per item basis and
were received from the following:
No. of Items Low Amount of Bid
Monarch Foods 37 $ 9,687.54
Abbott Supply Co. 38 10,430.16
M & R Distributing Co. None
Sexton & Co., San Francisco None
Mr. Pine recommended award to Monarch Foods and to Abbott
Supply Co. as indicated above with funds to come from
Auxiliary Enterprises accounts. President Miller and
Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
29. Report of the Committee of the Whole
Mr. Hug reported as follows on the meeting of the Committee
of the Whole on Friday, October 3, 1969:
The Committee of the Whole reviewed a proposal that a
Master of Education in Physical Education be offered at
UNLV. This would be an option to an already approved
masters program within the College of Education.
Upon motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Bilbray, the
Committee voted to recommend that this proposal be present-
ed to the Board of Regents for a first reading with the
objective of a second reading and action at the November
meeting.
The Committee also received reports from Presidents Miller
and Zorn and from Mr. Alan Peckham, Associate Director, on
behalf of DRI, concerning the progress of current planning
activities of all 3 Divisions. Target date for the review
and recommendations concerning continuance, phasing out or
modifications of existing programs is now January. Phase
I presentations of new programs will proceed in November
and December; however, approval for new programs will not
be given until review of existing programs is completed.
Mr. Hug recommended approval of the Committee's recommenda-
tion.
Motion by Mr. Bilbray, seconded by Mr. Bell, carried with-
out dissent that the action of the Committee be approved by
the Board.
The meeting adjourned at 11:30 A.M.
10-04-1969
