"The board tendered a proposition to the prospective supervisors and in oper neeting discussed the details of a proposed contract and the contrict was read into the minutes which were approved a unanimous vote of the board. All this is being shown by the minutes of the board for the meeting held on the 10th day of March, 1949, and the board was informed by its attorney that they had thus entered into and created a legal valid contract between themselves and Ferguson.

Wood Products Co. and L. A. Swink. Following this meeting Mr.

Swink and Mr. Ferguson, with the school board's approval, met with the engineer and started to lay out the foundation for Waverly school. "Neither Mr. Swink nor the Ferguson Wood Products Co. nor anyone representing them have at any time made any requests or claim for compensation for services furnished to the board for consultation and advice requested by and given to the board up to this date and until the supervisory arrangement by these people and the board was made public no builders or other interested citizens in the school district or elsewhere had ever approached the board to give them any assistance of any kind 1 with reference to the problem presented by the need for constructing buildings and staying within the budget." The Swink-Ferguson statement asserts that the signatories.

"release any and all they may have against your board for an account of any agreements or relations that they may have had with your board with reference to the construction of the three school buildings," adding that they "do not make any claims against the board for services rendered or for any other items of any kind."
