On motion of Mr. Tucker the foregoing recommendations were approved and adopted.

President Graham made his report with special reference to committees set up at the three Units.

President Graham stated that when it was necessary during the past three years to make salary cuts under the State law and failing revenues, the Trustees thought it wise that professors on the Kenan Foundation share alike with their fellow teachers, and take the same percentage reduction in salaries. The amount of the cut on Kenan Professors has been set aside as a reserve fund and with the current year's operation will total $43,000. He asked permission to set up this reserve fund as an Emeritus Kenan Professorship Fund to take over at a salary of $2000 tO $2400 per year members of the staff whose condition is such that they should be put on limited service or relieved of their regular duties. This, in principle, would not be diverting the regular $75,000 annual income for Kenan Professorships - merely using the percentage cuts from Kenan Professor's salaries to establish a pension fund which will not only be a timely help to the University, but may encourage others to extablish similar funds to honor the distinguished service of men no longer able to carry on.

The use of this reserve from the Kenan Professorship Fund would seem to be well within the wording of the provisions covering the Foundation.

Mr. Parker moved that approval be given to the request.

Seconded and carried.

President Graham stated that the Faculty Committee on Grounds, Buildings, Fields, Forests, and Lake Area, in a meeting held September 28, 1933, recommended that the town of Chapel Hill be permitted to use the site below the lake dam overflow, now used temporarily as a public bathing place but which is without any proper facilities for such use, for such time as the Trustees see fit, on condition that the Town of Chapel Hill erect the proper bath houses, toilet facilities, and any other structures that may be deemed necessary for cleanliness and hygiene by this Committee, and by the State Board of Health, and that it be made the duty of this Committee to see that the provisions of this recommendation be properly carried out by the Town of Chapel Hill, and that proper supervision be provided by the town.

On motion, the above request was granted.

Governor Ehringhaus read a telegram from Gen. Hugh Johnson, Administrator of the N.R.A., requesting the release of President Graham to work out an economic education plan for the consuming public. After discussion, in which the sentiment was unanimous that President Graham's services could not be spared at this time without serious detriment to the University , the following resolution was unanimously adopted:

"While appreciating the honor and opportunity of his designation and not desiring to stand in the way of his expressed personal desires to go, yet feeling that his presence in North Carolina is so essential and necessary to the cause of education and the success of the University consolidation now in progress, this Committee does not feel that Dr. Graham can be spared at this time and expresses the wish that he may decide to remain at his present post."

President Graham then stated that in view of the sentiment above expressed, he would remain at the University.

NOTE

By order of the Board of Trustees of the University of North Carolina, and through the generosity of Mr. John Sprunt Hill, of Durham, the annual report of the President to the Board of Trustees is being distributed among University alumni and friends of education in North Carolina.

The report covers the year 1932-1933 and was made to the trustees at their regular winter meeting, in Raleigh, on January 31, 1934.

Because of its vital relation with the present report and because it is President Graham's outline of a manifold university of the people, his inaugural address, delivered November 11, 1931, is made a part of this pamphlet.

It is Mr. Hill's desire and that of the Board of Trustees that North Carolina citizens should know the underlying objectives of their consolidated University, and how through coördination and consolidation of three great institutions a unique university type is being developed in and for North Carolina.

4 REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT

see in our mind's eyes the long line of those who in this and other centuries laid out the ground on which we stand today.

MEMORIALS OF 1933

We recall this morning the faces and spirit of the members of this body who have died in the brief thirty months of your existence as a consolidated board. Committees of trustees have recorded and will record your memorials of the lives and services of these honored, beloved, and lamented members. No word of mine is needed. I simply pause with you and call their names in recognition of their private virtues and public service, and in commemoration of their pioneer work as members of the first consolidated Board of Trustees of the University of North Carolina: C.W. Gold, B.F. Shelton, C.A. Penn, A.J. Connor, J.D. Murphy, A.A. Shuford, J.M. Horner, J.G. Murphy, E.S. Parker, Jr., and R.N. Page.

In the year since our last January meeting we have lost by death from the several faculties, Dr. Eric A. Abernethy, Professors E.C. Branson, P.W. Price, W.D. Toy, and W.B. Cobb.

Eric A. Abernethy, valiant, generous, lovable, was a physician whose ministry of healing carried him across the blasted fields of France as lieutenant colonel in the United States Army Medical Corps. A battle wound, cumulative suffering, and consequent physical misfortune lay back of his resignation and later tragic and lamented death after thirteen years of unsparing work as community and university physician.

Eugene C. Branson was Kenan Professor of Rural SocialEconomics, director of county surveys in many parts of the United States, founder of Know-Your-Own-County clubs and the North Carolina Club, editor of the University News Letter, with its weekly wideflung package of socially disturbing facts and figures, an eloquent evangel of the live-at-home idea for two decades, and the dynamic center of a constantly radiating wave of light out of Chapel Hill that made a campus minister to a commonwealth. He was nationally distinguished as a rural-social-economic philosopher and locally beloved as neighbor, citizen, teacher, and genial spirit, who will always abide to keep us eager to make our civilization in the pattern of his dreams.

P.W. Price, an alumnus of the Lowell Textile School, became assistant in the Textile School at State College in 1918, and in 1925,

because of his versatile musical abilities, was appointed by President Brooks to be director of music. He was past president of the North Carolina and Southern Glee Club associations. As director of the State College band, he won the praise of John Philip Sousa. A fine moral influence, the dean of students and the president of the College leaned upon him as he lived his friendly life close to the center of the musical, athletic, and campus life of State College students who loved him and will always remember him as "Daddy Price."

Walter Dallam Toy, eminent linguist in a family of notable linguists, was for forty-eight years head of the German Department and forty-three years secretary of the faculty of the University at Chapel Hill; scholar, teacher, gentleman, of quietly humorous and penetrating insight, ever a courtly presence, reminiscent of the best of the old South, graciously softening the strident noises of the new. In his declining years he asked no quarter of his high conception of his duty. Against the solicitude of his family, he went to the opening faculty meeting this past fall as a stricken soldier going back into the line to make his last stand. The faculty, seeing him rise to make a motion, broke into affectionate applause whose sweet remembrance he cherished in those last days when he quietly slipped away to join the deathless fellowship of teachers and students. He teaches on as we remember him.

William Battle Cobb was Professor of Agronomy at the State College and a recognized authority on soils. This shy scholar in these years of deep salary cuts, heavy drainage upon body and mind, of frustrations of plans and hopes, went on quietly pounding away at the fundamentals of the state's life. Though a sick man, he would go to the soils convention in Chicago to give of himself and bring back to his college and state the fruits of the latest researches. The manuscript on soils which he had just completed is a monument to his scientific scholarship and a useful legacy to State College and the University in any plan for the reconstruction of the state by a people whom he would have master their soils on the way to a mastery of their destiny. By name and inheritance William Battle Cobb was suggestive of the best of the old University, and by cultural and scientific insight he was at the center of the purpose and potentialities of State College in the manifold University of all the people.

Two other names of our recent and illustrious dead work mightily to tie all three institutions together, George Tavloe Winston, Presi
