The group of 25 physics teachers from high schools, junior colleges, and universities was called to order by Dr. Potter, who then presided over the election of a temporary chairman. Dr. Potter was selected by acclamation and appointed Dr. H. M. Moseley of Texas Christian University as temporary secretary. Dr. Potter announced that the plan to organize a Texas Section of the A.A.P.T. to meet annually with the Texas Academy of Science had already received the endorsement of the Executive Councils of both the Texas Academy of Science and the American Association of Physics Teachers. A letter from the Executive Council of the A.A.P.T. endorsing the plan was read by the chairman. The organizational motion then carried unanimously.
