The city, it seems, acted as inspiration for the meeting. 330 panels, meetings, and receptions, an increase of 17 over any previous year, mirrored the surrounding variety. And, regardless of the opinion of a rather prominent editorialist, some of the Big Apple's excitement and activism infiltrated the atmosphere of our Annual Business Meeting. I know a number of political scientists who felt that it was a pretty good way to spend a Saturday afternoon.Participants, at an all-time high of 1,457, represented almost 50 percent of those in attendance. Political Philosophy took its place again as first in attendance at the 74th Annual Meeting, with the second ranked section a good 14 points behind (see Table 1 for further details). Significantly, only three panels were reported to have over 100 persons in attendance (Table 2).

OFTEN officers or members of the Board are asked questions concerning the Academy meetings. This letter is written to answer these questions. The Academy now holds one areal meeting and one general meeting a year. For a time an attempt was made to have two areal meetings a year. Since it is difficult to interest commercial firms in that many meetings, it resulted in a deficit, which the Board felt we could not afford. Occasionally now the areal meetings do lose money, but the Board has felt that one such meeting is indispensable. The annual meeting results in a profit. The areal meeting this year is in Cincinnati; the annual meeting will be in Toronto. Next year the areal meeting will be in Washington, and the annual meeting in Chicago. The Board has debated whether to hold most, if not all, the general meetings in Chicago. There are three advantages in this: it is centrally located, facilities are available, and the central office is located there. They would like your opinion as to the wisdom of doing this. Each year the areal meeting is held in a different part of the country and its program is arranged completely by the men in the locality in which it is held. It has speakers, symposia, and panels; and most often they are outstanding. Sometimes comparisons are made between the excellence of the areal meeting and the annual meeting. They are not really comparable, for their composition is significantly different. When it was first held, the composition of the annual general meeting was like the areal meeting, except that the annual business meeting was held at this session.
