8 Ill. Ct. Cl. 793

University of Illinois,

No. 627

Opinion submitted April 26, 1934.

By the Court.

As the business of the University of Illinois is not that of maintaining and operating buildings, as construed by the courts, the service of a carpenter regularly employed in the maintenance and repair of the buildings would not bring such employment within the Workmen’s Compensation Act. Upon the facts stated, no award is recommended. (See Lombard College vs. The Industrial Commission, 294 Ill. 548.)
