County Engineer Me Tween accompanied the jury in order to point out to them the changes made in the route from the original profile.
 The contention of the plaintiffs IS that the changes should be classed as extra work and done on force account.

 The contract on the Clifton-Sprin2- erville road was not awarded ,on 2 lump sum bid but on items of con ; structiOn on 6 yardage basis, but the [ contention of the plaintiffs is that the 1 changes ordered imposed upon then 1 extra expense.
