1904-11 WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for November 1904WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for November 1904 Volume 01 - Page 295 1904-11-05 The board of trustees met in regular session in the office of the Principal in the school building; present, trustees Edens and Minton, Principal Mathes and the clerk. Principal Mathes reported that he had received a request from the state librarian for 350 copies of the school's catalogue, and that he had not enough left to comply with it. It was ordered that copies of the next quarterly bulletin he sent instead. Principal Mathes laid before the board the question of having janitor Lemach organize from among the student boys residing near the building, a fire company. He explained that his plan contemplated having additional hose attached to the hydrants on the school campus, and that the boys were to be drilled in the handling of it, so that in case of the breaking out of a conflagation, they could effectively aid in its subjugation. The matter was left to the principal to further work out and report upon. The clerk was directed to communicate in writing to the mayor and city council the intention of the trustees to enforce their rule heretofore made against trespassing on the campus by men with teams, and to warn them that the next offender would be prosecuted.
