81 RECORDS sa2kEN A lie y y,
Previous Financial and Enrolment
Records Shattered

Iowa City, Ia, July 31.-Financial
records. as well as enrolment records,
were shattered at the University of
Iowa during the past year. This was
proved today by the report for 1905
1906, released by Secretary W. j. Nc
Chesney of the board of regents, when
he submitted it to the executive coun-
ell, Governor .Cummins and the thirty
FIRST general assembly Interesting
figures, quotable therefrom, show that
the total receipts We're never before
equaled. They reach s53o,O0O. The
highest preceding total was $4,000.
On the other hand, for the good of the
university, more money Vas expended
than ever before in q single year. 1t
reached $516,o6l "a. TIC highest sum
prior thereto was little over S47s, 900.
The income ID Increased because the
state appropriated more for support
and for building puFDoaes. etc. and
the record breaking attendance made
the receipts from tuition larger than
eyer before. The current expenses of
the university We're $27S,00O, and the
expenditures for improvements reached
&O3, 911. SJ.>> These permanent features
INCLUDED new hall of science (now
buffding), which cost up to date $780,
112,4S, and more than 100000 for new
land; new dam cost about $500 so
far and engineering department.. addi-
lions wers valued at nearly $5,106. /.
The coming year will see the halfNof
science completed, new wing and cons
Meeting corridor for the hospital,
hydraulic power house for the dam and
steam engineering laboratory for the
college of engineering.
