Securing the signatures of the successful bidders to cortracts, Ar- chitects Unkelbach and Perry, acting as representatives of the town's special committee, today gave out the figures submitted for the work of erecting a four room addition to the Grammar school building an Broad street. In each case the committee awarded the contracts to the lowest bidders, announcing that the general contract goes to the Torrington Build- ing company, the installation of the heating apparatus to F. A. Schaffer and company of Bristol and the plumbing to J. O. Mills of New Britain. ) The bids of the successful contrac- tors, which total $17,262, do not rep- resent the entire cost of the addition as the committee will have to pay architects’ fees besides expending a considerable amount for grading the praperty and for equipping the rooms. The members figure that the cost of the improvement will be close to $19,000. The offers made for the job were as follows: % General Contract—Torrington Bldg. Co., $13,875: B. H.
