SB QST ARL ARLB035
ARLB035 WB8BGY appointed Great Lakes Vice Director

ARRL President Rod Stafford, W6ROD, has appointed George Race,
WB8BGY, of Albion, Michigan, as Vice Director of the Great Lakes
Division.  The appointment became effective May 19.

Race, the Great Lakes Division director from 1995 until 1998, lost
an re-election bid last November to Joe Falcone, N8TI, a Livonia,
Michigan, attorney.  When Falcone resigned last March, Vice Director
Dave Coons, WT8W, moved into the director's slot.  The vice
director's position has been vacant since then.

Race, 62, previously served as Great Lakes vice director from 1990
to 1995.  He became the Great Lakes director in June 1995, when he
took over for the ailing Allan Severson, AB8P, now a silent key.
Race was elected Great Lakes director in 1996.
