ACCIDENT INSURANCE FOR FOOD SERVICE EMPLOYEES AT ICE RINK (10) T h e Director of the Physical Plant Department has requested that the risks of accidents at the Ice Rink, now being used as a mess hall for Army trainees, be covered by insurance. Compensation insurance can not be secured for single groups of employees, so group accident insurance is proposed. T h e Purchasing Agent invited proposals from numerous agencies, and only three were submitted. H e recommends, and the Comptroller concurs, that t h e insurance be placed with the American Employers Insurance Company, the lowest bidder, through the Atwood Insurance Agency of Champaign at a cost of $25 an employee, or an estimated total of $3,250 a year for 130 employees. T h e expense is reimbursable under the government contract. I recommend approval.

On motion of Mr. Davis, this recommendation was approved.
