Plans for the Big Show in Pittsburgh during January are progressing on schedule, report convention co-chairmen Michael Coco and Gerard Ryan. Revision of the convention detailing is being completed to insure each delegate and visitor of the utilization of his time.

Be sure to take note that the opening date of the '63 MCAA Show is Sunday afternoon, January 26th. The opening date will allow many more people to see the Show over the weekend. Then, too, the Show will continue until Tuesday afternoon when it closes prior to the MCAA Annual Banquet and Dinner Dance.

Another "Big Change" occurs Wednesday afternoon. The entire session will be devoted to a Management Seminar so that mason contractors attending can be updated on new business and construction procedures and techniques.

The MCAA Educational Trade Show will bring to the delegates many new and improved materials and equipment. The Convention Assignment Committee (Harold Peterson, Joseph Szabo, Pat Filippi) reports that more than 75% of the exhibit space has already been assigned. Exhibitors are urged to make their requests for space immediately so that they may secure choice locations.

This year for the 8th straight year there will be no increase in Registration Fee. The Advance Registration form and Hotel Registration card as well as other registration material are being mailed to all MCAA members. However, if you prefer you may fill out the blank on the next page to rush through your registration.

The speakers for the '63 meeting will be announced by Messrs. Coco and Ryan during the next few weeks. MASONRY will carry the complete convention program in its big January Convention Program issue.
