With no relief from my own practice, the Section's business has made a normally hectic pace even more hectic. But I've enjoyed the meetings and calls and cor- respondence, the institutes have been exceptionally good, and the Palm Springs Council, Wneting fell during the coldest days in Chicago's history. At that midwinter meeting, I appointed the nominating committee for the August 1977 annual meeting. In accordance Lester Asher with the Section's by-laws, I consulted with Jay Siegal, the chairman-elect, and selected Evan J. Spelfogel, Samuel J. Weintraub, and Louis P. Poulton to serve as the nominating committee. They will make their report at the Section's annual meeting in Chicago. The National Institute on Developing Labor Law, which was held in Washington, D.C. on March 1 and 2, was very successful and the participants were all excellent. Vincent Apruzzese and Robert Baptiste deserve thanks from everyone who attended the pro- gram they worked so hard to arrange. One member of the Section (Jana H. Guy) wrote the following com- ment about the sessions on the Developing Labor Law: I wanted to share with you my enthusiasm about the program at the recent ABA National Institute on Devel- oping Labor Law in Washington, D.C. As a rookie in labor law, I found it most helpful, not only as an update in many areas, but also as a foundation in some areas not high-lighted in my law school labor courses. Please add my congratulations to those you must be receiving from many sources for a program that was obviously well planned, and equally well executed. The National Institute on the Labor Law of Health Care Institutions will be held in Washington on April 28 and 29. This also promises to be a most valuable meeting. Robert Connerton and Vince Apruzzese have invited experts from different fields to review developments since the August 1974 Health Care Amendments to the National Labor Relations Act. The Section's plans for the annual meeting in Chicago are taking shape. On the afternoon of August 8, Professor Harry T. Edwards, the Secretary of the Section, will discuss Labor Law Decisions of the Supreme Court 1976 term. On August 9 there will be a dinner jointly sponsored by the International Labor Law Committee of our Section and the International Society of Labor Law and Social Security. The annual luncheon of the Section will be held on Wednesday, August 10, and we will honor Archibald Cox, a past Secretary of the Section, a long-time participant in our work, and a leading authority in the field of labor- management relations. I have invited F. Ray Marshall, the new Secretary of Labor, to be a speaker at our annual meeting, and he has indicated that he will accept the invitation. The National Labor Relations Board will, of course, be represented in our Chicago program, and we will discuss developments with respect to the Board, OSHA, and the EEOC. The poet laureate of the labor relations field, Edward B. Miller, former chairman of the National Labor Relations Board, has been invited to present one of his poetic works during the course of the annual meeting in Chicago. ABA NATIONAL INSTITUTE ON HOSPITALS AND HEALTH CARE FACILITIES Section members are urged to mark their calendars for the Section's Third National Institute of the year, to be held on Labor Relations Law in Health Care Institutions in Washington, D.C. at the Shoreham Americana Hotel on April 28-29, 1977. The program for this Institute is being designed to present a com- prehensive and in-depth treatment of all aspects of labor relations relating to health care and will focus particularly on the NLRB's exercise of jurisdiction and conflicts with state law, bargaining unit deter- minations, strikes and picketing and the role of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. The program is being arranged by Robert Connerton, who was active in securing passage of the 1974 health care amendments to the National Labor Relations Act, and is under the overall direction of Robert Baptiste and Vincent J. Apruzzese, Co-Chairmen of the Committee on Institutes and Meetings.
