Thursday, October 21 9 A.M.- 5 P.M.
Friday, October 22 9 A.M.- 5 P.M.
Saturday, October 23 9 A.M.-12 Noon

THE REGISTRATION FEE is $6.00, $7.00 for non-members of SSSR or APRRE', (Student fee, $2.00). Fee includes admission to all meetings, one copy of the Abstracts of Papers and admission to the President's Reception (including one free drink).

'The 1971 Meetings of the Association of Professors and Researchers in Religious Education are being held also at the Hotel Bismarck in Chicago and the program of sessions for that organization is being printed following the listing of SSSR sessions. Registrants to either conference are welcome to attend sessions of the other.

This year's meetings depart from the customary format in that most participants have agreed to read brief summaries of their papers. In most instances full length papers may be obtained by writing directly to authors either before or after the meetings. This new departure has made possible a greater number and diversity of presentations than in the past and will, we hope, allow for more in-depth discussion between participants and attendees at the various sessions.

EXMBITS: Exhibits of publishers and recent writings by members of the Society will be on display in Parlor F.

ABSTRACTS: Additional copies of abstracts of papers available at the Registration Desk. Price $1.50.
