Year Summary with all the minutes, meeting programs, and members' names, including all the officers, was<br />
bound in a volume presented to the Institute of Medicine of Chicago, of which the Chicago Section had been an<br />
affiliate member since 1954. Later volumes 7 are likewise being prepared by Frank J. Orland, an active past<br />
office-bearer of this versatile Section.<br />
An <strong>IADR</strong> Honorary Vice-Presidency was conferred upon Edgar D. Coolidge (1958-59) for great activity<br />
as a member and researcher.<br />
Titles of papers read at the Chicago Section meetings were often, though not regularly, published in the<br />
Proceedings of the Institute of Medicine and the Journal of Dental Research. 8<br />
The Chicago Section was host to the annual <strong>IADR</strong> meeting for a record fourteen times 9 through 1970.<br />
Section members formed the Local Arrangements Committee of <strong>IADR</strong> on these significant occasions. (See<br />
chapter on "Meetings and Members" for exact dates and sites.)<br />
This Section was also honored by having the most men elected to the <strong>IADR</strong> Presidency while they were<br />
members of the Section: Frederick B. Noyes, 1925-26; Arthur D. Black, 1929-30; Edward H. Hatton, 1933-34;<br />
William G. Skillen, 1936-37; Isaac Schour, 1941-42; Allan G. Brodie, 1948-49; J. Roy Blayney, 1949-50;<br />
Leonard S. Fosdick, 1951-52; Dan Y. Burrill, 1963-64; and Gordon H. Rovelstad, who was elected while in<br />
Chicago but was transferred to Washington, D.C., where he served his term of 1970-71. It should be mentioned<br />
that there might have been another <strong>IADR</strong> President from the Chicago Section; unfortunately, Rudolf Kronfeld,<br />
who was President-Elect, 1939-40, died 13 February 1940, exactly one month before his inauguration as<br />
President.<br />
One of the highlights of the Section was its Fiftieth Anniversary Dinner Meeting held (almost on its<br />
birth date) on 28 December 1970. In addition to many members and wives, several guests attended from other<br />
Sections who were in Chicago for the AAAS Nd Section Meeting down the street (see chapter on "Other<br />
Gatherings" for topics and site). After the cutting of the elaborate birthday cake, F. J. Orland, President-Elect of<br />
<strong>IADR</strong>, portrayed the total though concise history of the Chicago Section in chart form. Next on the historical<br />
program, G. H. Rovelstad, <strong>IADR</strong> President, spoke on "The Next Fifty Years".<br />
The officers of the Chicago Section at the end of 1970 were H. William Lyon, President; Allen F.<br />
Goldberg, Secretary; John P. Waterhouse, Treasurer; and Patrick D. Toto, Councilor.<br />
Moreover, there were at the time of the Section's Fiftieth Anniversary Meeting a total of 165 members<br />
(more than in any other Section), ninety-five of whom were regular <strong>IADR</strong> members and seventy associate<br />
members.<br />
THE CINCINNATI SECTION<br />
The Cincinnati members of <strong>IADR</strong> voted to form a Section in January 1964. It was recognized by the<br />
parent organization in March of the same year at the Forty-second General Meeting in Los Angeles, California.<br />
