University of Virginia Library

Friday Meeting

Mr. Manly, a third-year law student,
reported that he and Leigh Middleditch, the
University Legal Advisor, had met Friday
afternoon to discuss the confused situation.

"At that time," Mr. Manly stated, "he raised
certain points which were not anticipated in my
research. As a result, the issue of the invalidity
of the lease is being considered further."

Mr. Middleditch, in his separate statement,
said that "negotiations regarding this lease have
been going on for some time. It is the
University's position that the lease is currently
in full force and effect.

"Pending the results of the lease negotiations,"
he continued, "the University understands
the status quo as to the Madison Hall
Madison Bowl tract will continue."
