and a book, Writing for the Pedal Harp, by Ruth Inglefield and Lou Anne Neill-with an introductory chapter by Stanley Chaloupka-has been submitted for publication. Lucile Jennings has received a Baker Fund Award of $4900.00 from Ohio University to produce a videotape supplement to the book. (2) Roslyn Rensch Erbes' grant proposal at Indiana State University has been funded for $400.00. This will provide for entering cross-indexed information from harp journals here and abroad into the computer system. (3) A newly revised grant proposal has been submitted to the National Endowment for the Humanities to seek funds for the establishment of a repository for harp related documents and other items in the Library of Congress. Ruth Lorraine Close Musical Fellowship Awards: The Society continued to administer this project for the University of Oregon. As in 1979, eighteen young harpists appeared for auditions and three were recommended by AHS. This year, the auditions were open to an audience for the first time. The panel of judges: Harpcentrum Director Phia Berghout, Marcella DeCray, composer Pierick Houdy from Quebec whose Sonata was a required work, Ruth Inglefield and former Philadelphia Orchestra harpist Edna Phillips. New Committees: Three new committees were established by the Board: BUSINESS ADVISORY (Chairman to be announced), made up of business-oriented members of the Society (formation of such a committee had been strongly recommended by a professional business consultant); FUND RAISING, John Escosa, Chairman, with its first order of business the procurement of prize money for the 1981 Playing Competition; CONFERENCE ADVISORY, Frances Miller, Chairman, made up of past chairmen of AHS national conferences to assist future chairmen in their advance planning. Especially for our newer members, I wish to recall retiring President Ann Stockton's remarkable record of service to the Society. She was Chairman of the Board from 1968 to 1974; after the one-year interval required by our constitution, she was again elected Director-At-Large, then as President for two terms (1976- 80). In 1981, Ann will have completed 12 years of almost continuous work in our behalf, years in which her executive ability, tact, grace and good humor have enhanced the Society's image in whatever role she has represented us. In Pearl Chertok, the Board of Directors has chosen a new President who brings her own combination of qualities to the task, a task which becomes more complex each year with the continued growth of the Society. We have every confidence in her leadership and look forward to working with her. The Board wishes to thank Mario Falcao, Suzanne Thomas, other members of the Western New York Chapter, and the many friends from the Fredonia State University College community who helped to make the 1980 National Conference a rewarding experience for us all.

Each year's conference affords an ideal opportunity to observe the Society's condition and to determine its progress. Without further regard to detail, it should be said that the growing feeling of friendship and cooperation within the Society, the willingness to work together to complete the task at hand, should enable us to attain whatever goals we may establish.
