Abstract
AT THE MAY 1954 meeting of the Executive Commit- tee, retiring President Ralph E. Rush presented an in- teresting and illuminating report, a part of which dealt with various aspects of the biennial convention held in Chicago March 24-31. Among the features which con- tributed much to the success of the convention were the music programs. Mr. Rush's report included tabu- lations which gave evidence of the painstaking proce- dures which were followed for a period of many months in selecting groups to represent the various geographical areas of the country, as well as various educational levels of instrumental and vocal music.
