               REPORT ON SCREENING COMMITTEE WORK

        "Perhaps, the scope of the Committee' s work since last fall can
best be described by pointing out that its nine members have traveled more
than 50, 000 miles in seeking a new president for the University.

        "Those travels have taken the members from points as far east as
New York, New Jersey and Washington to points as far west as Oklahoma,
Nebraska and Colorado.

         "In addition, we have conferred by phone with persons in California
and Alabama, We also have done much work in Kentucky, looking into pros-
pects in many parts of the commonwealth, including our own campus.

        "It has been gratifying to receive the advice and counsel of literally
hundreds of citizens, in and out of the state, who have a deep and dedicated
interest in the progress and growth of the University.
