      Said motion was duly seconded, put upon itfs passage
and carried.


      At this point the Report of the Committee appointed
by the Board at it's meeting to investigate the Goode
incident was called for.


      Thereupon Mr. Marcum, chairman of said Committee, read
the Report of the Committee which is as follows:

      Report of Coomr on Goode incident. -


Gentlemen:

      The undersigned committee of your body appointed at
the special meeting of the Board held on the 24th day of
April, 1902, to investigate and hear evidence as to the
written complaint of Mr. Desha Breckinridge filed before the
Board touching the conduct of some of the students of the
College towards Mr. D. B. Goode on the college grounds
April 9, 1902, respectfully report to your Board as
follows:


      We met at the college gymnasium at 9 O0olock A. M.
April 30, 1902, and heard the statements of a great number of
witnesses to the occurrence under investigation. In fact we
took the statements of all persons in reach who could give
any fact bearing on the subject. Among the statements
taken were those of Messrs. D. B. Goode, Desha Breckinridge,
Pres. James K. Patterson, Prof. Walter K. Patterson,
Willoughby Williams of the Lexington Democrat, and a
number of students of the College. These statements were
taken by stenographic notes and when transcribed covered 310
pages of typewritten evidence, which we herewith return
as part of this report.




 






MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEESJune 4, 1902 - page 124-125



      From the evidence it will appear that Mr. Goode was
acting as a reporter for the Morning Herald, a newspaper
edited by Mr. Desha Breckenridge, in the City of Lexington,
Ky., at the time of the commission of the acts of the students
complained of, Mr, Goode went upon the college grounds, and
buildings, April 9, 1902, for the purpose of investigating
and having published an alleged disturbance that had taken
place at the college dormitory between the commandant and
some of the members of the Cadet Battalion. A body of students
compelled Mr. Goode to leave the college grounds, casting
eggs and stones near him as he left the grounds. None of
them striking him except one small stone doing him no injury.
The students assigned as an excuse for their conduct the
previous acts of Mr. Goode in writing unfair newspaper
articles and comments upon the College and Student body, and
his advice and encouragements to many of the students to
violate the rules and regulations of the college and cite
many facts showing the unfriendlyness of Mr. Goode for the
college which the students resented. It clearly appears
that neither the President of the College nor any member of
the college faculty encouraged the demonstration of the
students against Mr. Goode, nor could they by any reasonable
means have prevented it.

      In conclusion we desire to add that such conduct upon
the part of the students engaged in the demonstration against
Mr. Goode is to be regretted, and deserves the censure of
this Board. At the same time it is but just to add that
the conduct and attitude of Mr. Goode toward the College
and student body, as shown by the evidence, should be given
great weight in extenuation of the discourtesy by the
students. The names of the students engaged in the
demonstration, so far as we are able to ascertain,
appear in the evidence submitted.

      With the exception of the incident named, the conduct
of the students during the past year, has been most excellent,
an improvement on past years.

                      Respectfully submitted

                                    J. B. Marcum,  Chairman.
                                    John RcChord,

      Communication from Prof. Wernicke.


                                Lexington, Ky., June 49, 02.

Board of Trustees.,
   State College of Ky.

Gentlemen:

      On account of the state of my health, which makes a
prolonged rest or charge of occupation desirable, and for
the purpose of completing some research work, in which the
constant use of the facilities offered by large universities
is indispensible. I respectfully ask for leave of absence
during the ensuing collegiate year, which I expect to
spend in Europe.

      The Department of Modern Languages has stood in need
of an expert assistant for some time. Should you accede to
the above request, then permit me to suggest, that such a
teacher might be appointed to conduct my classes during my
absence, and be retained after my return, thus leaving
the Department in a normal condition.

      If desired I could conduct by correspondence the work
of graduate students, and give advice regarding the course
of instruction here. I should also make it my duty to be

      Report of Com0 on Ex. Sta.

      Your committee on the Experin-ent Station has made as
satisfactory investigation of the Station work as time per-
mitted. We find the Station in a prosperous and growing
condition. After consultation with Director Scovell, we ask
the adoption of the following recommendations:

      Appropriating funds from the Hatch Act.


      1. That the appropriation of $15000.00 from the
Hatch Act, the income from the Fertilizer arid Food Control,
and Farm, and the interest accruing from these accounts
be appropriated for the use of the Station.


      Turning over Stat. Bldg., to exclusive use of Stat.


      2. That the Station building be turned over for the
use of the Station at the earliest date possible, the Station
to pay $9000.00 for the College's equity in the building,
If this can not be done by September 15th, we recommend
that the college take the building for Prof. Eastle and that
the Station erect a building for it's purpose, in which event
the college to pay $3000.00 for the Station's equity in the
building.


      Confirming appointment of D. W. May.


      3. By authority of the Board at it's meeting in June
last, Mr. D. W. May was selected Superintendent of Animal
Husbandry and begun his duties January 1, last. Directcr
Scovell is much pleased with his work. We therefore recommend
that his appointment be confirmed and made permanent, his
salary to be $1500.00 per annum.


      Confirming appointment pf J. 0, LaBach & fixing salary.


      4. Mr. J. 0. La Bach was elected last year for one
year, and if satisfactory to the Director his election was
to be made permanent. The Director recommends this and we,
therefore, concur in such a recomr-iendation, that the election
of Mr. La Bach, as chemist of the Food Division of the Station,
be made permanent and his salary be $1500.00 per ammium, unless
an Increase be recommended hereafter. The Director informs
the committee that he has had a talk with Mr. La Bach and
such an arrangement is satisfactory to him.

      In reference to salary of J. 0. La Bach.


      Last year the salary of J. O. La Bach was fixed at
$1500.00 with an increase of $100.00 each year until the

and that there be no increase in his salary unless such in-
crease be recommended hereafter by the Director.
