On motion of Mr. Johnston, these minutes were approved as printed on pages 49 to 261, inclusive. REPORT O F EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ON CHANGE IN CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION O F CONGRESS CIRCLE The Secretary presented the following report: On recommendation of the Director of the Physical Plant and with the concurrence of the President of the University, the Executive Committee has authorized an increase of $56,000 in the contract with Gust K. Newberg Construction Company, General Contractors, Chicago, for the construction of buildings at Congress Circle to include removal of buildings I, I I , I I I , IV, and V of parcel No. 13-216 which are part of the Hull House group. T h e contractor is willing to undertake this additional work to expedite construction and has submitted a quotation under the same conditions on which bids were received by the Department of Urban Renewal. It is not practicable for the Department to attempt to demolish these buildings within the period of time available without serious danger of delay to the University's construction program and also because of the possibility of complications arising between the University's contractor and the City's demolition contractor working in the same area. T h e City will reimburse the University for this work. T H E EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE M R . W A Y N E A. JOHNSTON M R S . FRANCES B. WATKINS M R . HOWARD W . CLEMENT O n m o t i o n of M r s .
