The Kansas Forestry Fish and Game Commission awarded three contracts for state lake sites. M. W. Watson Co. of Topeka won the Osage County lake project with a bid of 79710 and a completion date set for November 30. Hughes and Simpson of Neodesha won 22411 for Wilson County lake site miscellaneous work. Chapman Construction Co. of Yates Center won 10010 for a caretaker's house at Woodson County lake.
