____________________________________________

We are indeed privileged to report to the membership that the Annual Meeting and General Election held at the Hotel Gotham in the evening of April 30th was unusually well attended, and that it resulted with the re-election of all the nominees reported by the Nominating Committee plus the election of Mr. J. E. Treleaven, on the "Personal Choice" column, for the three-year term to the Executive Committee which remained open on the ballot.  To one and all, we are sure, will for the felicitations of the membership along with all good wishes for a most constructive and successful administration.
