Institute activities: Midwest general meeting to be held in Chicago, Ill.

Arrangements are in progress for the program of the Midwest general meeting to be held in Chicago, Ill., November 3–7, 1947. Headquarters for the meeting will be in the Congress Hotel. A full program of broad general interest, which is appropriate for the locality of the meeting, will be presented in combination with inspection trips, entertainment, and special activities for the visiting women. The National Electronics Conference at the Edgewater Beach Hotel, November 3–5, and the second International Lighting Exposition at the Stevens Hotel, November 3–7, which is concurrent with the AIEE meeting, assure a busy week in Chicago. A joint session with the National Electronics Conference will be held at the Edgewater Beach Hotel, and all other sessions which have to do with electronic applications and communication will be scheduled on the last two days of the meeting to avoid conflict with the National Electronics Conference sessions.
