CONSERVATION CHAIRMAN APPOINTED
At its initial meeting the new Management Committee agreed that the Section should become more active in its conservation efforts. As a bold first step in this direction, a new Conservation Chairman has been appointed, Ed Treacy.
This is the last issue of the Newsletter which can be printed in the current under-the-table location. The Newsletter is published six times a year and usually consists of ten or twelve pages (five or six sheets printed on both sides). Currently we need about 250 copies but that will probably go to 275 before the end of the year. We can afford to spend about $50.00 an issue for printing (including supplies). If anyone knows of a place where this printing can be done, or can provide one, please let the editor know.
Some of the more sharp-eyed readers may already have noticed that this issue is less than the ten or twelve pages mentioned above. That is because we have included all the material we have received and have been forced to stoop to fillers such as this to avoid wasting paper. Trip leaders who have not submitted reports are urged to do so. Moreover, the Newsletter welcomes articles from anyone on anything which vaguely pertains to the interests of the Section. As can be seen in this issue, just a few people are carrying the whole load, but the new editor naively hopes that the situation will soon improve.
