Number 11 in President Bryan's report was read and it was the opinion of the Board that complimentary tickets to games be restricted to bona fide representatives of the press. President E. C. Elliott of Purdue University was informed of this action and he replied as follows:

"Purdue University,
Lafayette, Indiana - June 8, 1934

President W. L. Bryan
Indiana University
Bloomington, Indiana

My dear President Bryan:

I shall be glad to discuss with our Trustees at their meeting next week the question of the limitation of the issuance of complimentary tickets for athletic contests. As you know, our policy has always been a very conservative one and consequently the limitation does not represent any decided departure from this policy.

I am disposed to think, however, that our Board will withhold any action upon this until Indiana University indicates its intention with regard to the disputed claim of more than $2000 arising from the Indiana- Purdue football game of last autumn. I shall be glad to have your decision upon this. As you know, the matter has been the subject of considerable correspondence between the Athletic Directors.

Very sincerely yours,
Signed: Edward C. Elliott"

In reply to the above letter, President Bryan sent the following telegran:

"Trustees of Indiana University would favor rule to discontinue all complimentary tickets except to bona fide representatives of the press. Neither the Trustees nor I have been informed of a difference between Indiana and Purdue athletic departments as to settlement on proceeds from games. Are always willing to confer."

Recommendation No. 12 in President Bryan's report was read as follows:

12. I call attention of the Trustees to the following problems:

President Bryan submitted the following recommendations:

I recommend that the Department of Romance Languages be divided - Professor Young to remain Head of the Department of French and Italian and Professor John Hill to be made Head of the Department of Spanish. The members of the Spanish department will remain as at present. The salary roll for all in both departments will remain unchanged.
I recommend that the appropriations for the department of Romance Languages as shown on page 23 be divided as follows:

French and Italian:

Spanish:

This division corresponds approximately to the teaming load in the two fields.
I concur in the recommendation of the members of the department of Political Science that the department be designated as the Department of Government.

On motion of Mrs. Teter and seconded by Mr. Long and Judge Wildermuth the above recommendations were approved.

On recommendation of Mr. Long, seconded by Mr. Feltus, an appropriation of $119.00 was authorized for the special commencement editions of the Indiana Daily Student.

Resolution


"This committee has learned with profound sorrow of the death of Judge Ira C. Batman, April 10, 1934, at his residence in Bloomington.

Judge Batman has been a member of the Joint Committee of the James Whitcomb Riley Hospital since the organization of this committee. Indeed, he prepared the resolution and drew the agreement providing for such committee.

Judge Batman's service upon this committee has been characterized always by great wisdom and fairness, by an uncommon devotion to his responsibilities and by a helpful response to every request that has been made of him by this committee.

The Joint Committee of the James Whitcomb Riley Hospital, therefore, desires to record its deep loss in the death of Judge Batman and to express its appreciation of his fine personal qualities and of his long and faithful service to the Riley Hospital, and hereby extends its sincere sympathy to the members of Judge Batman's family and to his relatives."

On motion of Mrs. Teter, seconded by Mr. Feltus, the recommendation of Dean Agnes E. Wells was approved as follows:
