540 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [June 19 Co., Chicago, the lowest bidder, for Phase I construction of the Materials Research Laboratory. Phase I will consist of sheet piling the sides of the Boneyard Creek through the site and the provision of additional supporting piles for and the construction of slabs over the Boneyard to support a three-story connecting link between the Materials Research Laboratory and the present Physics Building. T h e contract will also include construction of a paved delivery and service area over another part of the Boneyard Creek. Initiating Phase I at this time will meet the construction time schedule proposed in the prospectus submitted to the Advanced Research Projects Agency ( A R P A ) and the United States Atomic Energy Commission, which agencies will participate in amortizing the costs of the laboratory. Construction on Phase II is tentatively scheduled to start in October, 1963. The Board has approved a proposal to the Illinois Building Authority to finance construction of the Materials Research Laboratory, but in the event that this first phase of the project can not be so financed, funds will be available from the state capital appropriations to the University for 1963-65 subject to release, or from indirect costs received from materials research contracts. I concur and recommend that $210,000 from undistributed indirect costs derived from Materials Research Laboratory contracts be reserved to finance the construction of Phase I, as needed. T h e difference between this figure and the Pathman contract is to cover other construction costs. On motion of Mr. Swain, this contract was awarded, as recommended, by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Dilliard, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Pogue, Mr. Swain, Mrs. Watkins, Mr. Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Kerner, Mr. Page. CONTRACTS FOR EXTENSION OF UTILITIES DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, URBANA (14) The Director of the Physical Plant and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend awards of contracts, subject to availability of funds, for extensions of the utilities distribution system for additional services to the Materials Research Laboratory, the Electrical Engineering Building, the Education Building, and the Illinois Street Residence Halls, the award in each case being to the lowest bidder: Steam Tunnel to Materials Research Laboratory Underground Steam Tunnel Extension — Dean Evans Company, Champaign $149 900 Tunnel Piping W o r k for Extension of Steam Service — The J.
