Reception and the 30th Anniversary Banquet, whose major highlights were the installation of officers and a special slide-show tribute to incoming President Louis Helbert.
MCAA gratefully acknowledges the thoughtful gesture of the Brick Institute of America and the National Concrete Masonry Association, which generously provided the wine that was served at each table.
As in years past, MCAA executive vice president George A. Miller acted as master of ceremonies for the evening, during which he introduced to the audience the 1980-81 MCAA officers and regional vice presidents and their wives, as well as other dignitaries present at the banquet.
The Annual Banquet officially closed the formal activities associated with MCAA's 30th International Masonry Conference. The last order of business was conducted the following morning, Wednesday, February 27, when the MCAA Executive Board convened for the second of two meetings conducted during the Conference.
The 1981 Conference of MCAA will be held in Reno, Nevada, February 26-March 3, at the new MGM Grand Hotel.
NOTE: The preceding report constitutes the Secretary's minutes of the 1980 MCAA International Masonry Conference. A transcript of the proceedings will be on file at the MCAA Executive Office and may be reviewed by interested members of the Association.

Chairman of the Year in 1973 for his work as chairman of the Safety Committee. He was a regional vice president from 1975 until his election as secretary in February of this year. He additionally has contributed articles to Masonry.
Bill and his wife, Shirley Jean, have four children, Peggy, 19, Bill, 18, Dick, 17, and Kathy, 9. While totally devoted to his wife, children, business, and the masonry industry in that order philosophically Bill seeks the "lighter" side of every situation, and sees no reason why hard work and serious effort can't be fun.
He relaxes in a corner with a very old Gibson guitar and country music, and has great difficulty turning down a friendly game of poker or an hour of mixed-doubles tennis. He also does not turn down a game of regular doubles or singles tennis, but those who play with him think, perhaps, he should reconsider his position on the latter.
The plaster and mortar mixer shown in this ad is a thirty-five year old Essick Model 141D. We picked it because at 35 it's still going strong for a busy contractor who doesn't really care how old it is, only how well it works. We also picked it because it illustrates an important point: Essick mixers are built to last and we can prove it! And here's something even more important to you. The old Essick 1410 was good (and still is), but today's Essick mixers are even better. Today's Essick mixers offer all the features of the old 141D, the rugged construction and durability, completely sealed transmission and clutch for positive engagement between engine and paddleshaft, plus such outstanding features as self-adjusting, spring-loaded paddleshaft packings that never require greasing. Yesterday's Essick mixers were great. Today's are even better! Write for free information!
