CONTRACT FOR ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES ON DRUG PLANT RESEARCH STATION (32) The Board of Trustees on January 12, 1950 (Minutes, page 970), appropriated $65,000 for the construction of buildings (heated greenhouse with adjoining headhouse, machine shed, and pump house) at the Morton Arboretum near Chicago for the Drug Plant Experiment Station. The Physical Plant Department recommends that Schweikher and Elting, Architects, Roselle, Illinois, be employed for the necessary architectural services at a fee of 5J4 per cent of the total cost. Based on the estimated cost of the buildings ($55,000), the fee will be approximately $3,025. I concur and recommend that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board be authorized to execute a contract with Schweikher and Elting for such services. On motion of Mr. McLaughlin, this contract was awarded and authority was given as recommended.
