954 BOARD O F TRUSTEES [November 29 To carry out this program, installations will be required in the University High School, Illini Union, University Club, Men's Residence Halls, and McKinley Hospital. The first step in the program is the preparation of plans and specifications and securing of accurate estimates. To accomplish this, additional engineering services are required. The Director of the Physical Plant and the Comptroller recommend the employment of Graham, Anderson, Probst, and White, who have designed the fire alarm telegraph system on the campus, on the basis of actual cost of labor and blueprints, plus 100 per cent, plus travel expense if such is necessary. The total cost of the engineering services on the above projects is estimated at approximately $4,800, of which the proportionate share on self-supporting buildings will be financed from their income, and other projects from Physical Plant operating appropriations. I concur and recommend that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board be authorized to execute the above contract. O n motion of Mr. Fornof, this recommendation was adopted.
