Hidalgo." At the Saturday luncheon, held in honor of the TSHA Fellows,
we will hear "Failed Texas Nationalism and Annexation" by Association
Fellow Paul D. Lack of McMurry State University.
Come to Austin for all of this and more on February 29-March 2, plus
the bonus of visiting with good old friends and meeting new ones. It is
not every year that an organization has its one hundredth annual meet-
ing, and it is not every year that an organization publishes a major ency-
clopedia. Don't miss either. If you have any questions about the annual
meeting, call longtime meeting coordinator Colleen Kain. This will be
Colleen's last meeting before her retirement-another good reason to
attend this year.
The eighteenth annual conference of the National Council on Public
History (NCPH) will be held on April 10-13, 1996, at the Holiday Inn
Crowne Plaza in Seattle, Washington. Organized around the theme "His-
tory and the Public Interest," the conference will feature sessions on the
use of new technologies in museums, broadcast media, and archives; the
status of public history within the academy; political history; and histori-
cal advocacy by professional and public interest groups.
There are also plans for a program track organized by the National
Park Service, with whom the NCPH has joined for new collaborative ac-
tivities. The conference schedule also includes workshops and tours of
the Seattle area. The conference is cosponsored by the Pacific Northwest
Historical Guild and the Northwest Oral History Association, both of
which will sponsor special sessions. For more information, contact pro-
gram chair Robert Weible, Division of History, Pennsylvania Historical
