My dear Hostmann : 



The committee on audit of books of 

 the Treasurer of the Alumni Associa- 

 tion was unable, because of multiplici- 

 ty of added duties, occasioned chiefly by 

 the recent examinations, to complete its 

 report for presentation on occasion of 

 the May meeting of the Association. 



A report will however will be ready 

 for presentation on occasion of the June 

 meeting. On such occasion the Com- 

 mittee on "Honor Roll," will also make 

 its report. This report could of course 

 readily be made to the May meeting. 

 Circumstances however render this in- 

 advisable. 



Very truly yours, 



Geo. C. Dirk man. 



Chairman Henning, of the Commit- 

 tee on prizes, reported that he had de- 

 livered the gold, silver and bronze med- 

 als and the Torsion balance. Amy's 

 Principles of Pharmacy and Culbreth's 

 Materia Medica to the President. On 

 motion the report was ordered placed 

 on file and the committee was dis- 

 charged with thanks. 



Chairman Brown, of the Junion Day 

 Committee reported that the committee 

 was ready to open the exercises. 



The following letter was read: 



Xew York, May 9th, 1916. 



Jeannot Hostmann, President

 your attention, what seems to me to be 

 an oversight in according the seniur 

 Honor Roll students, proper recognition. 



It is quite true that the medal students 

 receive from the Alumni Association a 

 certificate setting forth the purpose for 

 which it is issued. It is likewise true 

 that the recipients of the Trustees' prizes 

 are given a certificate in recognition of 

 their work, besides the prize itself. 



This would leave however at least 

 seven, and possibly more, of such stu- 

 dents who at present receive no further 

 recognition than that of having their 

 names read on occasion of the com- 

 mencement and having their names ap- 

 pear in the corresponding Bulletin of 

 Information. 



Would it not be possible to have a 

 statement to the effect that the recipient' 

 of the diploma "Graduated with 

 Honors," appear on the face of the 

 diploma itself I cannot see a single ob- 

 jection to this plan. I realize however 

 that there may be such objections, and if 

 so will be glad to have them pointed 

 out. I would suggest that you, if you 

 think well of the proposition, appoint a 

 committee to take up the matter with the 

 college atithorities. 



While this may not be strictly an 

 alumni matter, I feel that coming from 

 the Alumni Association, it will carry
