Subject: Re: ADS annual meeting - tape recorder?



Allan,

Could I recommend that Miklops Kontra, who is in the country and coming to

the meeting, be substituted for Silke? He is currently very much involved

with the preservation of Hungarian (and anti-Hungarian laws) outside

Hungary. It would fit nicely with our endangerment program and would not

require any program shuffling. I am sure he can be recruited.

Just a suggestion.
