American School Health Association Convention Proceedings

Plans have been made through the courtesy of the Michigan Tuber- culosis Association to prepare a mimeographed proceedings of the Detroit ASHA Convention which will incorporate all the papers and panel pre- sentations made at the meeting. To determine the number of copies needed, it is necessary to develop a tentative list of persons who wish to obtain copies of these proceedings. The brochure will be sold at cost, estimated to be between $1 and $2, depending upon the number of pages.

Those attending the Convention will certainly want to have a copy of the proceedings as a permanent record of the meeting. Those unable to be present can obtain a helpful summary for each of the sessions by ordering copies of the report.

Please send a post card to A. 0. DeWeese, M. D., Secretary, Ameri- can School Health Association, 515 East Main Street, Kent, Ohio, in- dicating your interest in the proceedings at the earliest possible time. Only sufficient copies will be printed to provide for those who send in their tentative orders before October 15, 1961. Be sure to send your post card today and assist ASHA in the development of this project. Also please indicate whether or not you will attend the Annual Meeting a t Detroit.
