March 10, 1975 Page 4 Ms. Schlereth also stated that Ms. Ryan's findings might be used by the Commission as a case study of what they would like to accomplish, if they decide to submit a proposal to a private foundation for support of their efforts. Ms. Ryan next reported her findings on the Bartlett house, its location and on the history of the Bartlett family. The complete dossier, including extracts from deeds and photographs, will be turned over to the Com- mission for their file. After general approval was voiced by the Commission, Ms. Davisson moved that the Commission endorse lis. Ryan's presentation, and that it be written up in suitable form and submitted to the National Trust for competition in their Student Journalism Awards Program.
