Vacation Period

The next annual meeting of the National Council will be held at the Coronado Hotel, St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 31–Jan. 1, 1935–6. The explanation of the unusual date is that after the Council voted in February to hold a program meeting in St. Louis during the holidays in connection with the American Association for the Advancement of Science the N.E.A. selected St. Louis as the place of its February meeting for 1936. The Board of Directors, after due consideration, decided it would be unwise to hold two meetings in the same locality only seven weeks apart and voted to abandon plans for the usual February meeting and hold the regular annual meeting on the dates just mentioned. It is hoped that a greater number of high school teachers will be able to attend the meeting during the vacation period than would be possible in February.

Dr. John H. Minnick was elected President of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics at the annual meeting at Atlantic City. Dr. Minnick has been unusually active in secondary school mathematics. He is now engaged in training high school teachers in mathematics in the University of Pennsylvania. Many readers will recall Dr. Minnick’s Tests of Abilities in Geometry, a scientific monograph on the nature of the abilities which are involved in proving a proposition in geometry.

History Of

The Eighteenth Annual Meeting of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics was held at the Palmer House, Chicago, Illinois, February 19–20, 1937. It was the largest meeting in the history of our organization, 836 registered and more than a thousand were in attendance. The Board of Directors met in two sessions and conducted the necessary business for the ensuing year. A trip was made to the Adler Planetarium and a lecture in the Planetarium was enjoyed on the subject, “The Determination of Time and Place.” At 8:00 p.m. the first General Meeting was called to order by President Martha Hildebrandt in the Grand Ball Room of the Palmer House. The Address of Welcome was made by James E. McDade, Assistant Superintendent of Schools, Chicago, Illinois, and the response by Mrs. Florence Brooks Miller, First Vice-President, Shaker Heights, Ohio. Secretary Schreiber made the opening announcements. Professor Albert A. Bennett of Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island addressed the group on the topic “Mathematics and Life.” This was followed by a series of projects in high school mathematics reported by some twenty high school students from Hyde Park High School, Chicago, Illinois, under the direction of Miss Beulah I. Shoesmith. This feature of the program was much appreciated by the audience of some seven hundred teachers.

The old order has changed—and given place to the new. In action taken one year ago, the Board of Directors of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics created a new position and eliminated an old one. As of July 15, 1969, Miss Carol V. McCamman became Managing Editor of The Mathematics Teacher. Miss McCamman came to her new work with a rich experience in teaching mathematics at Coolidge High School, Washington, D.C. She also edited the invaluable Cumulative Index of The Mathematics Teacher, volumes 1– 58, 1908 through 1965. As of the date of this issue, the present editor completes his term.

The success of the Mathematics Teacher is very much dependent on the volunteer efforts of many members of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. The quality of the journal is significantly related to the professional judgment of our many referees, who include junior and senior high school teachers, curriculum designers, college and university mathematicians, and teacher educators. Listed below are the names of the referees who served during the year ending 1 July 1976.

A large organization succeeds only to the extent that its members are willing to donate their time and talents to participate in the activities of that organization. Important among the activities of the National Council are those of its several committees. The following committees have been appointed by the president with the approval of the Board of Directors. Appointments are for a period ending at the close of the annual meeting of the year indicated.

At the meeting of the National Council in Washington, February 20, 1932 the following motion was passed without dissenting vote: “The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics reaffirm their interest in the question of geometry as expressed at the annual meeting in Detroit, and hope that the Board of Directors will find it possible to initiate and carry forward a study of the whole question of geometry in our schools.” The directors forthwith empowered the new president, Mr. Betz, to appoint a Committee on Geometry; and he, anxious that some work should go forward during the long time necessary for the final organization of this and other committees, selected six members of the National Council for immediate service on the committee, intending to enlarge the membership as soon as possible in order that it might include an even wider range of interest and opinion.
