Contract For School Brick

Brick for the new Hill grade school
building, at Sixteenth and Catherine
streets, will be furnished by the Au-
burn Brick Company. of Gettysburg, at
s14 per 1000. The contract was let last
evening by the School Board in special
session. Harry Miller is the city rep
resentative for the Gettysburg firm.
Architect c. Howard Lloyd estimates
that $4,000 brick will be needed.
The session was held for the purpose
of agreeing upon bids opened a week
ago. The meeting was enlivened by a
little tilt between Miller, the agent,
and Director Fohl./ This grew out OF
the action of the board last week in
postponing a decision because it was
said that the same brick for which the
Gettysburg firm had asked s14 had
been bought by the Pennsylvania Steel
Company for s12.45. Director Houtz
wanted a few days delay until com
mittee could be appointed to look into
the grade of the brick desired, but the
vote was called on the award of the
contract to the Auburn Company. This
was let by vote of four to three, Di-
.rectors Boil, Houtz Bretz and Bower
voting for and Directors Yates. Fohl
and Werner against the award. Mr..
Yates protested against the award OF
the job to the Gettysburg concern.
