     B. R~eDort of Comntrolle.

     The Comptroller made an oral .I nancial report concerning the
financial status as of June 30, l94J.r  He also briefly referred to
the printed copy of the annual report of the Comptroller for the
year ending June 30, 1942, and asked for advice in publishing an
annual report for the year ending June 30, 1943.     It was called to
t~he at tention of the Executive Committee that the report for 1941-
4'4 was delayed awaiting an audit certificate of the Auditor of Public
Accounts.   It seemed to be the X nsensus of opinion of the members
ol the Executive Committee that an audit certificate should be se-
cured but, in the event the Auditor of Public Accounts was unable to
make an audit within a reasonable period of time after the close of
the fiscal year, that the report should be published.

progressive universities comparable to Kentucky.

prossing to the donors the appreciation of the University of Kentuc&y's


     H. Sink Leaves.

     President Donovan brought to the attention of the Executive Com-
mittee the question relating to' sick leave for employees of the Uni-
versity.   He stated that apparently the University did not have a
sick leave policy but that each case had heretofore been handled sep-
arately.   The Chairman of the Executive Committee then appointed the
President and the Comptroller to study this question and asked them
to recommend a policy for action of the Board of Trustees.

     President H. L. Donovan

     Association, of the University of Kentucky, the following
     U. S. Treasury Bonds:

          #C1361460 G    $100.00 issued in June, 1943.

                    These bonds are being accepted by the Comptroller
