Teisen  (Miss.),  Frank  P.  Van  Inwegen,  Howard  Eakle  Young  had 
successfully  passed  their  'final  examinations  in  the  Optional  Course 
in  Bacteriology,  and  were  entitled  to  special  certificates  of  proficiency 
in  said  branch.  Upon  ballot  being  taken,  they  were  declared  eligible 
to  have  the  certificate  awarded  them.  A  communication  was  re- 
ceiyed  from  the  Board  of  Education  recommending  Robert  Gracey, 
a  graduate  of  the  Central  Manual  Training  School,  class  of  1909, 
as  worthy  of  a  full  course  scholarship,  which  on  motion  was 
awarded.  Mr.  Cliffe,  on  behalf  of  the  class  of  1884,  presented  to  the 
College  a  barometer,  that  they  had  installed  in  the  Chemical  Labora- 
tory, for  which  the  thanks  of  the  Board  was  extended.  John  Moser, 
Jr.,  was  elected  to  associate  membership. 
November  3,  1909. — The  Committee  on  Scholarships  reported 
that  after  a  competitive  examination,  Albert  Worthington  Moore, 
of  Trenton,  N.  J.,  and  James  Vansant  Hewitt,  of  Vineland,  N.  J., 
had  passed  the  best  examination  for  admission  to  the  Dobbins 
Scholarship.  The  committee,  therefore,  recommended  the  awarding 
of  scholarships  to  both  of  these  men,  as  the  Treasurer  reported 
sufficient  funds  available  to  the  credit  of  the  scholarship  to  admit 
of  doing  so.  Their  recommendation  was  accepted.  Professor 
Remington  reported  that  the  Wiegand  Scholarship  Fund  of  $3000 
was  completed  by  a  subscription  just  received  from  Samuel  Fair- 
child,  of  New  York.  The  Secretary  was  instructed  to  express  to 
Mr.  Fairchild  the  appreciation  of  the  Board  for  his  contribution.

been  students  of  Dr.  Susan  Hayhurst,  to  place  in  the  Museum  her 
portrait,  as  she  was  the  first  woman  graduate  of  the  College,  was 
read  and  the  request  was  granted.
