Editor Volume 5, No. 1, Fall 1978 Q American College of Probate Counsel 1978 EDITORIAL MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT I have just assembled the program for our mid-year meeting in Kauai, Hawaii, February 28 - March 4, 1979. It will be excellent - one of the best. But finding 20 outstanding speakers in the College was difficult. My acquaintanceship with top-flight speakers in the College across the nation is limited, but I felt the need for participation from all sections of the country: big cities, rural communities, large firms, small firms, single practitioners and law professors - a true cross-section of the College. It was easy enough to select speakers from the Southwest, but beyond that horizon lay the difficulty. It occurs to me that others will face the same. I would like to institute a new resource for the College - a reservoir of talent from which to draw speakers and authors for programs and publica- tions. Many Fellows of the College lecture at seminars and institutes in all parts of the United States. Many write outstanding treatises and articles for local, state and national publications. The College should know of these accomplishments and be able to draw upon them for the benefit of all. The College will never know about them unless advised. No one should be hesitant to give this information. Thus, each time you speak at an institute or seminar, author an article for a legal periodical or know of a Fellow of the College whose talents should be shared with others, write the Executive Director of the College. She will catalogue such information and make it available to future (continued on page 2) +t-has been traditional for the new editor of Orobate Notes to recognize the efforts of the retiring editor in this column. The process of following established precedent is not always a happy one, but in this case it is a pleasure to be a traditionalist. Jack Bruce spent two effective years during a tumultuous period (from the tax legislative standpoint only!) editing this publica- tion, the first as assistant editor to Malcolm A. Moore, and the second as editor in chief. During this time period, Probate Notes served a double duty, that of keeping the Fellows of the College well-informed as to our own activities, and that of a messenger of the dramatic tax events taking place in our chosen area of law practice. Any faithful reader of Probate Notes during those years must agree that under Jack's tutelage and guidance Probate Notes served both tasks well. For this, and for his other work on behalf of the College, all owe him a debt of heartfelt thanks.
