Bulletin HASKINS & SELLS 85 Annual Meeting THE 1928 annual meeting of the mem-bers of the firm and managers was held Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, September 24, 25, and 26. While the physical setting was new and unfamiliar, on account of the changed location of the executive offices, the gathering looked not unlike the many by which it has been preceded. All of the firm members were present with the exception of Mr. Lovibond. All of the American practice offices were represented except Dallas. The death of Mr. Bland, who had planned to attend and represent Dallas, cast its shadow over the gathering, and he was missed by his many friends. The program this year followed practically the same plan as last year. A professional conference, at which Mr. Ludlam presided, was held the first day, with a recess at noon, when a buffet luncheon was served in the library. In the evening, after several private dinner parties, the firm members and managers, with their wives and other members of their families, attended a theatrical performance. The golf tournament, which has come to be an established part of the annual meetings, was held the next day, with Colonel Carter acting as host, at Round Hill Country Club, Greenwich, Connecticut. The day was ideal for golf. Mr. J. A. Padon repeated last year's performance by winning low gross with a card of 86 for the eighteen holes. Mr. Carr won the honors for low net with a score of 66. The consolation prize was awarded to Mr. Foye. In the evening a dinner dance was held at the club. While the golf tournament was in progress, Mrs. Carter entertained the women members of the party with a luncheon at her home, Shamrock Farm, in Greenwich, Connecticut. Informal conferences occupied the time on Wednesday, and the meeting closed with a general feeling that the occasion had proved helpful, as usual, in undertaking the work of the coming busy season, and in solving the many problems with which the organization always is confronted.
