Proceedings of the Board of Regents (1914-1917)

JUNE MEETING, 1915

207

Pratt's salary be fixed at $350o.oo and that she be allowed
an assistant to receive, for the time such assistant serves,
a salary equal in amount to that paid to the assistant to Dr.
Cummings, it being understood, however, that such assistant
will not probably be employed for more than half time and
in any event that the amount of time employed shall not be
such as to make the entire salary exceed $I,ooo.oo per
annum. This recommendation is made, however, upon
condition that the funds of the Health Service warrant the
additional expenditure.
In regard to a special course for scout masters, referred to your Committee (see p. I69), we report that in
our judgment it is not expedient at the present time to
authorize such a course. The members of the Committee
feel, however, that considerable work is given that would
be useful for a person having in view the calling of a scout
master and that the Deans of the Departments, in which
such work is given, be advised to arrange individual courses
for such persons as may apply.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
