U. OF I. TO REMAIN WITHIN BUDGET RATE No increase in the -- for the University of Illin®is will be askedw fpemesthe Le ture by t Board of Trustees of that institutidh, President David Kinley said this week. "WWhth the* explana has there | is no limit to what institutiongdife a great state univérsity camw®o from the educational" and scientific view- point but that it s thought inad- visable to ask the taxpayer of..t state to make an additional Outlay for the university at the present time, President Kinley that the same amount that:.was granted two years ago will be asked again, $5,250,000 per year for two years. At the same time it was pointed out that the officials of a neighboring state university were asking this year something over. $16,000,000 from the legislature in that state. No Increase for Years It has been the hope of the mem- bers of the Illinois Board of Trustees that this same amount granted by the legislature and approved by the gov- ernor two years ago will be all that it will be necessary to ask for any biennium over a period of several years. Part of this money every year will be used for buildings and the remainder for operation and mainte- nance. Under this plan, if the amount ask- ed meets the approval of the people and is granted by the members of the legislature and approved by the gov- ernor, $4 250,000 per year for the next two years will be available for the necessary operation and maintenance of the university, while one million dollars will be available each of the two years for building purposes. Money for Buildings The money asked for buildings will be used during the next two vears for the construction of a second unit of the library, the erection of a facade and the addition of one end of the armory, a building for the architec- ture department, an additional wing to the men's gymnasium, and an addi- tion to the pharmacy building at Chi- cago. Students to Observe Solar Eclipse Jan. 24 Prof. Philip Fox, director of Dear- born Observatory and professor of astronomy at Northwestern univer- sity, is planning special observations for Eclipse Day, January 24, with re- spect to the spectrum created by the moon's shadow overcasting the sun. A special spectrograph is being fitted to the Dearborn Observatory tele- scope and this will be utilized during the few minutes the eclipse is view- able from this part of the world both by Prof. Fox, his assistant, Prof. IL. J. Comrie, and, through other and smaller telescopes, by members of his class in astronomy, now numbering forty-two. Shortly after 8 o'clock in the Chi- cago district the moon will begin her shadow play with the sun and during the next half-hour thousands of tele- scopes and smoked-glass devices will be leveled skywards. Prof. Fox ad- mits that probably nothing of im- mediate scientific value will be ob- tained in the promised study but, in- asmuch as solar "atmosphere" has been a constant study of scientists for years, he will accept this oppor- tunity, he says, to make additional observations. Many members of his class will station themselves along the lake shore not far from Dearborn Observatory with smaller telescopes and make observations of their own. There will follow in the classroom a general discussion of what happened and of what the most successful and experienced observers obtained from the study.

Stolen 'property to the value of $44 was recover- ed, one stolen auto was recovered and 13 disturbances were suppressed. There were only six auto accidents, none of which were very serious, and 85 street lights were reported out. That gives a pretty fair idea of the month's business. The fire department did pretty well to. Property to the value of $142,000 and having contents worth $80,500 was threatened with destruction by fire during the month. The total damage was only $6,825. Most of the fires were started by overheated furnaces or some cause having to do with the heating systems. c violations. Assessment Receipts to Be Sent out in February Numerous inquiries received at the village offices in regard to receipts for the payments of special assess- ments, caused Village Manager Wool- hiser to issue an announcement this week that receipts for these payments would probably not be mailed out un- til after February 13. The village offices are so swamped with work at the present time that it is impossible to mail out receipts for the payments as fast as they come in, so it has been decided to wait until a large number can be sent out at once. .
