The American Laryngological Association has received Gifts and Bequests to
be used for certain designated purposes. These Special Funds are held in
Trust by
the Association and used for the purposes to which they were designated.
In June 1940 President Gordon Berry appointed a Committee to investigate
these funds regarding their financial status and the validity of their
investment; to propose regulations as to the expenditure of principal and
earnings, together with suggestions for their conservation, and finally
to propose rules relating to the granting of awards from some of these
funds. The Committee consisted of:
- Dr. James A. Babbitt
- Dr. George M. Coates
- Dr. Charles J. Imperatori, Chairman
Since that time these Trust Funds have been carefully invested,
the purpose for which they were designated has been fulfilled and
the unused interest added to the original Fund. Additional bequests
have been received and placed in a Laryngological Research Fund.
Since it seemed advisable that the Special Funds and Awards should
be reviewed again, President Fred Dixon in 1958 appointed a Committee
for this purpose with the request that they suggest any changes which
should be made in the disposition of these special funds. The Committee
consisted of:
- Dr. Harry P. Schenck
- Dr. Gordon D. Hoople
- Dr. Frederick T. Hill, Chairman
In recent years, it seemed appropriate to again review the Special
Funds and Awards to update them and make revisions where necessary.
This most recent updating came about as the result of the efforts of
the following Committee appointed by President M. Stuart Strong in
1983:
- Dr. Gabriel F. Tucker, Jr., Chairman Dr. Raleigh E. Lingeman
- Dr. Charles M. Norris
- Dr. Eugene N. Myers (ex-officio)
- Dr. William M. Trible (ex-officio)
