Hopefully all conference travel forms are in the mail to us as they are desperately needed from all of you. It is getting very difficult to secure late reservations on airlines with the approaching holiday season. Also, it is harder for our office to expedite late travel details amidst the flurry of other details being cared for in advance of the conference.
Last week we sent registration packets to all of you. Please return the registration card as soon as possible. It is by means of this card that we will assign you a place in the seminars and lectures.
We have solidified plans for a concert Saturday night during the conference. Mr. Wayne Shilkret, A.I.C.F. General Manager for Performing Arts, has arranged for a very popular show which is directed to the current interest in and revival of "big band music." Les Brown and his orchestra along with Ray Eberle, Paula Kelly and the Modernaires will provide a very lively evening of Glen Miller hits — "A Salute to Glen Miller."
The conference plans are coming together very well and we are enthusiastic about the opportunity for your wives to register for and participate in the seminars and lectures as they may desire. This looks like one of our most exciting conferences in terms of quality of information to be disseminated, and opportunities for stimulating and constructive participation.
