60 Proceedings of Thirty-Sixth Regular Convention,

shorter than the Wunder Dormitory, would cost approximately
$86,000. We respectfully petition the Hon. Synod to grant this
appropriation.
In the name of the Board of Control,
Wn. Loouner, Secretary.

Committee 1 recommended: —

1. That on account of the economic stringency the request for
a new building be declined;

2. That Synod authorize the razing of Kilbourn Hall, such action
being demanded by orders of the Building Inspector of the City of

Milwaukee.
ilwaukee. Action of Synod.

The recommendations of Committee 1 were adopted.

Concordia College, St. Paul, Minn.
(Memorial 107.)

The Board of Trustees of Concordia College, St.Paul, Minn.,
herewith presents its triennial report to the Hon. Synod.

Student-Body. —In a general way the health condition and the
spirit of our students have been very good. We regret, however, to
report three deaths during this period.

Enrolment. — 1932: 273; 1933: 218; 1934: 200.

The Faculty. — Since our last report the good Lord saw fit to call
unto Himself the soul of Prof. William Moenkemoeller. He departed
this life on May 9, 1983. He had served his Master most faithfully
and in an outstanding manner as a teacher of our school from 1905
to 1933. The vacancy caused on our teaching staff by his death has
not been filled. By rearranging the schedule our present Faculty
has been more than glad and willing to carry on without even the
help of the customary “assistant professors.”

The Board. — A change was made necessary in the membership
of your Board. Mr. A. M. Hillmann, who served Synod on this board
from 1893 to 1933 without interruption, felt obliged, because of other
duties, to resign. His service of forty years on a college board is, we
believe, a record in our circles. His resignation was reluctantly ac-
cepted, and Dr. H. W. Froehlich was elected to fill the vacancy.

Requests. — Prompted by its proverbial spirit of economy, your
Board is again requesting only such improvements and repairs as are
absolutely necessary for the proper maintenance or much-needed im-
provements of Synod’s property. We are therefore making only three
requests. : . ~ .
