Opening a discussion of the Institute of Public Affairs and the desirability of continuing
it as a public forum under the joint sponsorship of the University and of the Thomas Jefferson
Memorial Foundation, the President referred to a recent conversation between Colonel Hartfield
and Mr. Frank Houston relative to support of the Institute by the Foundation. The Board resolved
that a special committee be appointed to pursue this matter, and the Rector accordingly named as
the committee Colonel Hartfield and Mr. Berkeley, Colonel Hartfield to serve as chairman.
