MCINTIRE JEWELRY

The President reported that in the early 1920's Mr. Paul G. McIntire had given to the
University Museum various pieces of jewelry which had been stored in a vault at a local bank.
The director of the Museum has stated that this jewelry is not suitable for museum display but
the stones might be sold. It is suggested that the money received from the sale be set up as an
endowment for the museum in the name of Mr. McIntire

The Board authorized the President to secure an appraisal of the jewelry and attempt to
sell it at the appraised price. If it is not possible to get the appraised price then the matter
should be referred back to the Board for instructions.
