Income from $60,000 of the latest gift will be used for current University expenses, and that from $75,000 will be devoted to increas- ing Faculty salaries in the College of Engineering. Income of the former gift was designed entirely for current expenses. The donor has reserved the right to designate the use of the entire fund of $150,000 for some specific purpose later. Acknowledging the generosity of the donor, President Day said, "Coming at a time when the University's income is being seriously curtailed by the declining return on its endowment funds, the gift is one of the most significant made to Cornell in recent years."

Parker Ό8, who retired as Alumni Trustees of the University last June, were distributed at the annual meeting of the Cornell Alumni Corpo- ration^ in Ithaca, June 17. These reports are printed herewith: The College of Engineering now consists of the Schools of Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and the Sibley School of Mechanical Engineering, headed respectively by Directors W. L. Mal- colm, F. H. Rhodes, W. A. Lewis, Jr., and W. N. Barnard. This constitutes a completely new administrative set-up which, because of the character and attainments of the men in responsible charge, affords good promise of a renewal of the vigor and prestige of the early years. With emphasis on the necessity for high scholarship good men are being attracted to the Engineering College, and its house is being put in order. When the means for phy- sical improvements in plant and equipment come, the changes already made in the internal structure and outlook of the College will be discovered to have been a potent factor in bringing in the material support now very badly needed.
