Chapter reports are now being edited in a uniform
format by Sylvia Meyer, Chairman of the Chapter
Committee. They will appear in the Journal once
each year. Report forms were mailed to all chapter
presidents in May. It is hoped that this simplified
format will bring a response from each of the Society's
chapters.
