 Description: The annual meeting of the Rector and Visitors was held on this date at 10 a.m. with Rector Bryan, and Visitors, Duke, Hart, Hatton, Dillard, Scott, Oliver, Walker and Robertson present. The supreme Council of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity most gratefully accept the privilege of petitioning your Honorable Board for the privilege of offering the use of Room 31, West Range, the birth-place of our beloved Fraternity, as a scholarship to deserving members of its organization. The Committee on Buildings and Grounds, to which was referred the application of the Beta Theta Pi for permission to erect a fraternity house on the grounds of the University, recommends that the fraternity be given an option until January 1, 1921 on the lot in the rear of the Kappa Sigma House and fronting on Rugby Road, for the erection of such house. The exact bounds of said lot to be hereafter determined by the Rector and Visitors, and the terms and conditions upon which said lot is to be held and the building erected to be in accordance with those heretofore determined by the Rector and Visitors in other like cases. In case the lot be desired by the fraternity, then the details shall be arranged and embodied in proper documents to be duly executed by the parties. The Committee on Buildings and Grounds unanimously recommends that the application of Prof. C. M. Sparrow, as set forth in his letter of June 7, 1920 to the President, be rejected, and the Committee is unable to make any recommendation which will provide for the remodeling or repairing of the property at this time.

 Description: A called meeting of the Rector and Visitors was held on this date a 8 o'clock P. M., at which were present the Rector, John Stewart Bryan, and Visitors E. L. Greever, Harris Hart, Goodrich Hatton, Walter T. Oliver, Alex. F. Robertson and C. Harding Walker, and President Alderman. On the approach of the Centennial Celebration, and on the Founder's birthday, I desire to enter upon the execution of a long-cherished design to present to my Alma Mater a library of international law. I would begin the collection this year, and would from time to time add to it, making a final contribution, including probably a part of my own library, under my will or such indications as my family would carry out. It was my honnor and pleasure to make known to the Rector and Visitors of the University, at their meeting on April 20, 1921, your letter setting forth your gift - the John Bassett Moore Library of International Law - to the University of Virginia. I was directed by the Board to express to you their gratitude and appreciation of this splendid service to the University. The Board is largely composed of members of the legal profession, and you may imagine their pleasure and satisfaction at the thought of such new strength will be added to that side of our University life. I was also instructed to say that your letter will be spread upon the minutes and that all of the conditions will be faithfully adhered to. The General Education Board is holding its mid-winter meeting on February 24th, in New York City. I have just had a visit from the fiscal agent of that Board. I am convinced that the sum of $50,000 may be obtained through that Board from the sum given by Mr. Rockefeller some years ago for salary increases in American colleges. Certain sums have already been granted to the University of North Carolina, William and Mary, and the University of Alabama, under just the same circumstances. I could not bring the matter before the Board at the other meeting because I had not then had the visit of the representative of the Board here. It is necessary for the General Board to know that I am speaking by authority of the governing body, or they would not feel inclined to make any gifts to a State institution without fore-knowledge that it would be acceptable. Mr. Carruthers will explain any details connected with the situation. I am hoping to have a wire from you by Wednesday night, Hotel Wolcott, 31st Street, New York, authorizing me to present the inclosed application. It was specifically stated that action indicating the purpose to make this application by the Executive Committee would be sufficient. On behalf of the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia, I am submitting, through you, to the General Education Board, an application for an appropriation of $50,000, to be applied to salary increases of the instructional staff in the University during the academic years 1921-22, 1922-23, 1923-24. It is desired to use the sum asked for both to relieve the present salary situation as regards increases already made and to make such further increases as would tend to stabilize justly the present salary schedule and to afford relief to those manifestly underpaid. The University expects to obtain the necessary funds within the time mentioned to take the place of this grant in order that they may guarantee the permanence of the increased scale and to increase it in so far as that may appear resonable and helpful to the institution. Pursuant to our conversation in Mr. Scott's office last Wednesday, the following is the estimate of the epxenses of the Endowment Fund campaign which I was to supply you. You will understand of course, that it is very difficult to make a close estimate, because we much be ready to meet conditions as they arise, which may call for additional and unforeseen expense:

Confirming the following telegram which I sent to you under date of May 31st, 1921, - Please pardon my delay in making formal answer to your telegram of May 31st, but I have been in the midst of Centennial, and this is the morning after. In pursuance of our conference, I beg you will convey to the Rector and Visitors my purpose, if it be in accord with their wishes, to give the sum of $200,000 for the establishment and maintenance within the University of Virginia of a School or Department of Commerce and Finance, utilizing as far as possible the basis of such School or Department now in existence.

It will be their purpose to carry out your wishes rigidly and to seek by all just means to develop the great new department which this endowment makes possible in the life of the University. I need not assure you of my own personal appreciation of the greatness and wisdom of your services to this institution in its effort to serve the youth of this and other generations.

Oliver, Alexander F. Robertson, Fred W. Scott, C. Harding Walker and President Alderman. In response to your invitation the undersigned members of the Architectural Commission met at the University to consider sites and recommend a site for the Gymnasium. The Architectural Commission has considered and studied at length all phases of the gymnasium problem and now submits these plans which, in our unanimous professional judgment, are the most economical solution which meets all the obligatory requirements. We submit an approximate estimate of cost prepared by Mr. W. P. Thurston, the Richmond contractor, in the sum of $259,000.00. On this basis we recommend that the Board authorize the preparation of working drawings and specifications on which bids for the work may be secured. According to general plans and specifications of the central heating system, prepared by myself and adopted by the engineering faculty, construction will go forward, as funds become available, in three sections. The first section, to be installed for $60,000 now available, comprises: ATTENTION Mr. Chas.

 Description: The Board met on this date in special session, at eight P. M. and continued on the following morning at nine-thirty. There were present Visitors H. D. Dillard, W. R. Duke, Paul Goodloe McIntire, Miss. Emily McVea, Walter T. Oliver, F. W. Scott, C. Harding Walker, Lewis C. Williams and President Alderman. On behalf of the donors, I have the privilege of presenting to the Rector and Visitors a portrait of the first President of the University of Virginia. It is the work of Eugene Speicher, of New York, a noted artist and portrait painter. The portrait is the joint gift of many alumni, members of the faculty, and other friends of the President and of the University. I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your kind letter, in which you announce the presentation to the Rector and Visitors, by a joint group of alumni, members of the faculty, and friends of the University and of the President, a portrait of the first President of the University of Virginia. Please find attached hereto a petition signed by sixteen of your professors living north of the University who request that we build a small waiting room at the end of our car line on Rugby Road, near the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway. My mother, sisters, brother and myself are planning to make a contribution to the Centennial Endowment Fund, which we wish to take the shape of a memorial of some kind to my father, William H. White. It is our wish that it be used in some way in connection with the Law School. As we do not know how it could be best used, we are desirous of an expression of an opinion from you. The fund will be available early in May and will be about $10,000.00. I have your letter of the 7th inst., and it is difficult for me to tell you how much pleasure and satisfaction it would be for me and to this University to have here this memorial to my dear friend, your father. It so happened that we served together on the Board of Visitors and the Alumni Board for over ten years, and I know something of his devotion to the Institution. It is equally pleasing to me that you contemplate something in connection with the Law School. I am coming to Washington, unless I am prevented by reasons not now foreseen, about the 21st of April, and I shall let you know in advance of my coming. Of course, I shall treat your communication as confidential. Please find enclosed the following checks: The Trustees of the Austin Estate held for a number of years a mortgage from the heirs of Elizabeth C. Blackbird. A year ago last December the mortgage was paid off and we executed a discharge of the same. The Carnegie Corporation has upon its books an appropriation of One Hundred Thousand dollars ($1000,000) to the University of Virginia on which it is at present paying interest, all conditions in connection therewith having been fulfilled by the University of Virginia. If satisfactory to you, the Corporation will find it convenient to pay this amount in cash on June thirtieth, together with the regular quarterly payment of interest. I am sending you this advance notice in order that you may make what arrangements are necessary for the disposition of the funds. I have your communication of the 6th inst., informing me that on June 30, the Corporation will find it convenient to pay the amount of $100,000 to the University of Virginia together with the regular quarterly payment of interest. Confirming our conversation of this morning:The Chi Phi Fraternity would like to lease for the purposes of building a fraternity house, a plot of land on Rugby Road between The Gymnasium and the Kappa Sigma house. Please refer to our letter of May 31st in which we ask for a lease to a certain piece of land for the use of the Chi Phi Fraternity:-

 Description: A special meeting of the Rector and Visitors was held on this date with the following members present: I have made very careful study of the cost of heating to the University from the new central station with a view to making recommendation as to a fair distribution of charges for heat. In reference to E. W. James Estate Income I wish to express however haltingly - my deep appreciation of the generous kindness you have shown me during my illness, - a kindness which has made my sickness much more tolerable and my recovery more certain and complete. When our Board of School Trustees decided recently to erect a school for the colored population of this place the most suitable site was found to be on the land now owned by Mr. John Armstrong Chaloner. We asked Mr. Chaloner to donate ten acres of land for this purpose. Mr. Chaloner considered the matter carefully and decided he wanted to doit because of his love for the people of Roanoke Rapids and his desire to do something for the colored people of this section. He explained, however, that he had made a deed of this land to the Universities of North Carolina and Virginia but that he thought since he was to have the use of this land during his lifetime that there would be no difficulty in conveying in fee simple to our School Board. He suggested that we have our lawyer investigate the case which has been done. Our attorney advises that the most suitable way to convey this land is to have a deed signed jointly by Mr. Chaloner and the proper authorities from the two universities. I have just written Dr. Chase to determine whether the University of North Carolina would be willing to join with the University of Virginia in making the deed. We asked for ten acres because we thought that was the smallest part we could get along with. Knowing your spirit and interest in the cause of education I feel that you will understand our position and that there will be little difficulty in getting the proper acceptance of this arrangement.

The Committee on Saturday, October 13th had interviews with Dr. Hancock and Dr. Lambeth and saw both heating plants.

I have the honor herewith to report on the work of the expedition sent to California by the Leander of McCormick Observatory to make observations on the total eclipse of the sun on September 10, 1923. Your letter of the eleventh was duly received. I went over this morning to see Mr. Bradford about the transfer of the portrait of Jefferson in the Colonnade Club to Jefferson Hall. With the assistance of the janitor there, I hung the picture where Sully's Jefferson formerly hung. The Jefferson Society has now in its possession a portrait of Thomas Jefferson by Thomas Sully purchased some seventy years ago by the Society for the sum of approximately five hundred dollars.
