Abstract :
The 2-day meeting of the AIEE Great Lakes District, held in Jackson, Mich., May 11–12, 1950, featured the subject, “Transmission and Distribution of Electric Energy on Systems With Low Load Density.” Many of the papers which were presented in the seven technical sessions completing the program were directly related to the theme of the meeting. In addition, two sessions were held in which papers were presented in District Branch competition by the Branch Prize winners. Inspection trips were taken to nearby industries and power installations with a banquet each evening and a specially arranged program for the ladies. The total attendance of 536 members, guests, and students evidenced one of the most successful District meetings in the annals of the Institute
