THE NINTH MEDAL AWARD December 13, 1956 Hotel Commodore, New York, N.Y. T•E CLOSING function of the eleventh Annual Meeting of the Society oF CosME•'m CUEMISTS in New York, on December 13, 1956, was a dinner dance at the Hotel Commodore at which time the medal award of the So- e•ETY was presented to the Ninth Medalist, Miss Florence E. Wall, con- suiting chemist, author and lecturer, of New York. George G. Kolar, retiring president, was chairman of the evening2" He briefly reviewed the origin of the SOCIETY'S Medal and introduced the earlier Medalists who were present: Maison G. deNavarre (1951), Everett G. McDonough (1952), Ernest Guenther (1955) and Emil G. Klarmann (1953), who as chairman of this year's Medal Award Committee, was on:ithe dais. He also introduced Mrs. Harold L. Regenstein, sister of the Medalist and her husband. Others on the dais were Miss Arlene Dahl, Dr. and Mrs. Marston L. Hamlin, Mr. Warren Hull, Mrs. Emil G. Klarmann, Mrs. George G. Kolar, Miss Hazel L. Kozlay, Mr. Stephen L. Mayhan, Mr. Sabbat J. Strianse, newly elected president and Mrs. Strianse. Toastmaster for the dinner was Stephen L. Mayham, Executive Vice- President of the Toilet Goods Association and Honorary Member of the Soc•F•T¾. After mentioning his acquaintance with Miss Wall, which dated back to twenty-five years ago when he was editor of the ?lmerican Perfumer and ?lromatics and engaged her to write some special articles, Mr. Mayham introduced the first eulogist, Dr. Marston L. Hamlin, Associate Patent Attorney, American Home Products Corp., who addressed the gathering on "Florence E. Wall: Girl Chemist, B.C." Dr. Hamlin was followed by Miss Hazel L. Kozlay, Editorial and Merchandising Consultant, who spoke on "Florence E. Wall: Rebel Into Pioneer." President George G. Kolar in citing the Medalist said, "Florence E. Wall, in acknowledgement for your outstanding contribution to the science of cosmetic chemistry "In recognition of your pioneering efforts toward the scientific develop- ment of hair dyes "In appreciation of your educational accomplishment in transmitting your knowledge to students of cosmetology 157
