Announce Bailey Medal A Liberty Hyde Bailey Medal was announced, to be awarded by the Amer- ican Horticultural Council for outstanding contributions to American horticulture. The Medal is provided by Albert J. Irving, president of the Council, who announced it at the closing dinner of the Bailey celebration. It will be first presented at the Council's annual congress next October in Colonial Williamsburg, Va. A succession of Bailey's colleagues, former students, and leaders in the various fields of interest that Bailey influenced paid him tribute. The visitors were Bailey Centennial Speaker—Harold R.
