News of Institute and related activities: Attractions at the AIEE 1938 Winter convention

A PROGRAM comprised of many attractive features has been arranged for the AIEE 1938 winter convention, which will be held January 24–28 in New York City, with headquarters, as usual, in the Engineering Societies Building, 33 West 39th Street. To provide added interest for the membership the technical program has been enlarged to 16 technical sessions, 1 general session, and 5 conference sessions. This has been made possible without detracting in the least from the usual social functions: the smoker, Edison Medal presentation, dinner-dance, and inspection trips to places of interest. As in previous years, the women's entertainment committee, with Mrs. George Sutherland, chairman, is arranging a special program for the visiting women. For those who would enjoy a few days' vacation after the convention, and in view of the success of last year's cruise, another post-convention cruise to Bermuda has been arranged. A summarized schedule of events is given in an accompanying tabulation.
