News of Institute and activities: The 1935 Winter convention

IN SPITE OF New York´s 17-inch snowfall, which occurred during the Institute´s recent winter convention and which crippled traffic facilities in and about the city, attendance at sessions of the convention was good; a total of 1,114 members and guests registered. The percentage of attendants from outside New York City showed a further increase over last year; those registered from out-of-town (outside of District 3) this year comprised 38 per cent of the total registration, compared with 34 per cent for 1934, and 28 per cent for 1933.
