is too well known and too well es- tablished in universities to justify an extended discussion of the sub ject in this report. The cost to our university is comparatively small. For a full consideration of the sub ject, giving list and cost of pro- fessors on leave since 1911, and other data, See President Wildes report. SEVENTH:
 It is stated that Mir Galbraith made tWenty-two- charges against the administration of the university: We Gon't remember the number of charges made by Mr. Galbraith. as most, if not all of them were made to individual members. We did con slider some of them: all that there seemed any ground and remedy for for that has been our invariable practice. What Mr. Galbraiths twen- ty-tWO charges were. is not made clear by the more recent statements and charges. As shown by the cor respondence between MT GalbTaith and President Wilde, attached to the latter's report, MT. Galbraith refused 10 state to him what his cause of complaint was, and expressed his de- sire to have the matter considered as closed
 EIGHTH:
 The charge that the university has broken the eight-hour law is, in part true. Before the law was published, and at a time when President Wilde says he was ignorant of the law. laborers on the campus in charge of the superintendent of the grounds. worked as they had for years, more than eight hours. When President Wilde was informed of the existence of the law, the hours of labor were cut down to eight hours and have never since been increased.
 NINTH:
 Tuberculars are not knowingly, admitted either to the dining hall or dormitories. To prevent the in fringement of this rule. care is taken and new students are required to present medical certificates. a copy of the form of which is attached to President Wilde's report.
 TENTH:
 The charge is made that one stu dent was shot by another, who. in turn, was tarred and feathered by fellow students. It is true. one stu dent was shot and slightly wounded by another, and that molasses and cotton were applied to the one doing -the shooting; but this was all in d. of the university prohibiting stu dents from having firearms on the campus, and requiring considerate conduct, each to the other. We find that this was not caused by any dereliction of duty on the part of anyone in the employ of the uni versity, or by a failure to enact, and as far as possible enforce rules that ordinarily would have prevented such occurrence: That the boys at fault were no worse than boys generally; That proper punishment was inflict- ed, ard that the matter was one of those mixtures of lack of intention , and sporadic outbursts of boyish na- trre, that are liable to happen at any school.
 ELEVENTH:
 The charge is made that students ought to be too busy to spend time in playing pool or billiards at the university. The pool table was bought l with funds raised by the boys them selves with our consent. We approve i of their having and maintaining it. and believe that no bad results from their use of it. Many of them are working their way through school. others have but sma:i means and it furnishes a cheap amusement that tends to keep them away from other ! places of amusement that would be injurious.
 l TWELFTH:
 We omit going into details relating to a charge of injustice to the son of an estimable lady living in Tucson. ! We considered the matter fully, and with sincere regret. did what We thought was just and right Neither good nor harm can now result to the lady nor to her son from dis cUssion of it by us in this report THIRTEENTH
