Members of the lAA caravan are 

 urged to travel as lightly as possible. 

 One or two bags per person is recom 

 mended. The weather is expected to be 

 mild to warm on the way out and rool 

 on the return trip. A top coat is rer 

 ommended. 



Because ol an adjustment m adding 

 an extra meal, the cost of the trip from 

 any point outside of Chicago will be $1 .50 

 more than the prices cjuoted in last 

 month's issue of the lAA Record. Set 

 new prices in table. 



The trip figures around %20Q and that 

 includes just about everything sight- 



seeing, most meals, and tips. It does 

 not include food and lodging during
