CONTRACT FOR LABORATORY EQUIPMENT FOR MEDIA SERVICE IN THE SECOND UNIT OF THE DENTISTRY-MEDICINE-PHARMACY BUILDING. MEDICAL CENTER (15) The Director of the Physical Plant and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend award of a contract for $7,393 to Metalab Equipment Company, Chicago, the second lowest bidder, for furnishing and setting in place laboratory equipment in the Media Service of the Research and Educational Hospitals at the Medical Center, located in the second unit of the Dentistry-Medicine-Pharmacy Building. Media Service furnishes media for the hospitals and can only be closed during June, July, and August.

The second lowest bidder can complete within one hundred fifty days, which will meet the schedule. Funds are available from state capital appropriations for 1965-67 and have been released. I concur.
