night, accepted a $51,000 gift
for the university's proposed

appointments of an athletic di-
rector, head football coach and
academic dean, and heard trus-
tee committee appointments for
the coming year.
Dr. C. E. (Nig) McCarver,
Howard Payne development vice
president, was given the addi-
tional duties of athletic direc-

Huff, was formally named aca-

of $20,000 toward the science
building now under construction
on the campus.
Expressing appreciation for
loyalty and generosity to Ho-
ward Payne and her personal
help to many of the university's
students through the years, the
trustees voted to name the resi-

Jennings and her husband, the
late J. W. Jennings, who shared
in her work for tho school.

barring unforeseen delays,
should be ready for use some-
