The bonds will cover an estimated $113,000 for furniture, equipment, and utility services in addition to the general building costs.
The apparent low bidders were Harmon Construction company, Oklahoma City, Okla., $436,897 for the general contract; Brune Plumbing and Heating company, Lawrence, $86,245 for the plumbing contract, and Williamson Electric company, Manhattan, $43,738 for the electrical contract.
Bids on the construction of the 200-man dormitory to be built at the intersection of West Campus road and University drive stand at $566,880, well below the preliminary estimate of $715,000.
Competing Firms Bid Low To Build Men's Dormitory
The three-story brick dormitory will be financed by revenue bonds. The contracts will be awarded as soon as the state Board of Regents cells the revenue anticipation bonds, Mr. Brown said. Rentals paid by the KU students will live there will retire the bonds.
Competition among contractors is credited with holding the bids down. They were opened Tuesday afternoon in the office of John Brown, state architect. He said the "awfully good bids" apparently resulted from a willingness by contractors to take a smaller profit in order to obtain a contract.
Eleven firms entered bids for the general contract, including five from Oklahoma. Eight bids were received for the plumbing and heating work, and ten for the electrical contract.

Elementary Art Now Being Shown
Art work of students from Northwest Junior High school and first and fourth grades at Mark Twain grade school, both in Kansas City, Kan., is on exhibit in the art education office, 332 Strong hall.
Consisting of crayon drawings and paintings, the exhibit was arranged from work done by pupils of George Ann Kromk, education senior, during the seven weeks' course in student teaching for elementary education requirements. The display will be shown until Wednesday.
Another exhibit by the art education department shows three-dimension work, including puppets and papier-mache animals, which were completed by elementary education classes of Mrs. Lorita Pendleton, instructor of art education.
"White animal" is the meaning of the opossum's name. It comes from either "wabassin," an Ojibway word, or "apasum," an Algonquin word. Some authorities claim the name comes from the fact that the opossum has opossable first hind toes, meaning that these toes work very much like human thumbs.
