PAVING PROJECTS
TO COST $100,745


The Victor McLain Construction
company of East Moline this morn
ing was awarded contracts for Mo-
line paving to cost s100,745. Mr..
McLain was the successful bidder
on both the Eighth-Ninth avenue
and Third avenue projects. The for
mer is known as the east end paw
ing project, and calls for the paw
ing of % blocks. His bid on this
work was $50, 958.46, which amount
is 10 per cent below the engineers
estimate. The smaller job will cost
S9,787. Both contracts call for re-
inforced concrtee. Other bidders
