The Foundation also Indicated its wishes to have this temporary monument in place by July F, the

rush the review and approval process
policy.
At the same time, the Committee recognized the Interest of the Foundation to have some formal
commemorative item installed in time for Me twentieth anniversary of Mr. Howard's death. After
considerable discussion, the Committee Is recommending that the Foundation the authorized to Install a
