Probably secondary in import- @ance of the matters considered by the Board of Trustees Was a com- munication received from John C. Boswell, president of the Alumni Association of the “Farthest North” College. Boswell advised the Board that, as a result of a questionnaire sent to all alumni, his assotiation ‘favored necessary legislative action ‘Which would change the name of the institution to the *“University of Alaska.” Similar permission has| ‘been given other territorial land grant institutions, such as the University of Porto Rico and the University of Hawali. No Action The Board took mno action last| night on Boswell's communication. | President Bunnell presented| many {lluminating figures on the enrollment situation at the Paxr-‘ banks institution.

The acts men- tioned give Federal aid to +land grant colleges in Hawali and Porto Rico. Dr. Bunnell was given an in- vitation to come to Washington, D. C. as soon as possible to aid in the support of this measure. When his work before the pres- ent session of the Territorial Leg- islature is completed, Dr. Bunnell | said today that he would go. Last night's session was an ad- journed meeting, because the lack of a quorum forced the postpone- ment of the regular January gath- ering here.
