where the School Board had awarded contracts

checks from the contractor before accepting his
bid the successful contractors had written the
Board asking that the contract be quashed, as the
delav in the Estimate Board had inflicted loss
upon them. and they did not wish any longer to

certified checks. one OF these contractors was 10
