Dear Mr. Brittingham:
I have drawn a rough draft of an agreement covering the game
research fund, but I lack accurate information on how to designate you
as donor. Will you kindly indicate on the attached copy whether the
present designation is correct or whether the donor should be called
*Trustee, University of Wisconsin Trust," or by some other title?
The agreement copies the usual form used by the University,
but if there are any alterations which you wish to suggest, kindly
indicate them. I have not yet submitted it to anybody, but will do so
upon hearing from you.
I enclose a copy of the *lake Mille leader" in which Hawkins'
experiences in winter feding are described. This story was written
by a high school boy who has been doing volunteer work with Hawkins on
the area. I think I have told you that Hawkins has stirred up con-
siderable enthusiasm among the local boys, and to my mind this story
indicates that he has really taught them something, else the project
could not have been written up so accately.
It is ir recollection that we agreed to handle the $250 for
needed equipment in the same informal manner as the fellowship funds
have been handled in the past. I have carefully thought over the
relative urgency of our various equinent needs and I am still of the
opinion that what we need is a stereopticon projector and a microscope.
I can soure you that we will get a lot of benefit out of having these
items on hand in the office, and I am very appreciative of your making
them available to us.
Hawkins and I are counting on you to visit the prairie chicken
booming ground at aville Grove in April, and I will remind you of it
beforehand.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely.
