Abstract :
Plans are practically complete for the winter general meeting which is being held this year in Pittsburgh, Pa., January 26–30, 1948. Full advantage has been taken of this location as “mining and steel” will be the theme for the industry sessions. A broad program covering practically the entire range of Institute technical activities has been co-ordinated with inspection trips to various industries. A general session will be held on Wednesday morning with a feature talk to interest many members. At this session the Edison Medal will be presented. The smoker and dinner-dance will be held as usual. In addition a special womens´ program will be arranged. Headquarters for the meeting will be in the Hotel William Penn. Room reservations should be made early.
