The NEW CFM Scholarship Fund<br />

You will see some changes this month in<br />

the Intermezzo. Thanks to the family <strong>of</strong> Leland<br />

Baska, the <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>Federation</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Musicians</strong> has<br />

set up a scholarship fund in his memory. For the<br />

past seven years, we have awarded scholarships<br />

to children and students <strong>of</strong> CFM members that<br />

are pursuing degrees in Music. Originally funded<br />

by the Music Performance Fund, the CFM Board<br />

<strong>of</strong> Directors has chosen to continue to fund the<br />

scholarships through our local. With the generous<br />

contributions in memory <strong>of</strong> our member Leland<br />

Baska, we can continue to <strong>of</strong>fer aspiring musicians<br />

help in their educational pursuits. If you would like<br />

to contribute to this worthy cause, checks should<br />

be made payable to the “CFM Scholarship Fund”<br />

and sent to the local. Your name will be added to<br />

the list <strong>of</strong> contributors on our website.<br />

Who’s Playin’ Where<br />

Look on pages 15 and 16 for the new column,<br />

“Who’s Playin’ Where”. This is the NEW “Come<br />

Here Us Play.” For many years, we have listed<br />

the musicians that have steady gigs throughout<br />

our jurisdiction. We have now expanded this<br />

to include concert presentations <strong>of</strong> some <strong>of</strong> our<br />

orchestras. This will give you, our members,<br />

a chance to find out where our musicians are<br />

playing so you can attend their performances and<br />

support our Union musicians. If you have future<br />

engagements that you would like to have listed in<br />

this column, please send them along to me. I will<br />

include those that have a Union contract on file<br />

with my <strong>of</strong>fice.<br />
