membership as President during the last two years of change and uncertainty. It is now time to
pass the leadership on to President-Elect Dr. Hassan Razvi. All readers should by now be aware CUA Night School....................... 11-12
of his sustained efforts as CUA secretary. He has kept the CUA enterprise running smoothly for
the last five years. Hassan brings to the Presidency a vast knowledge of the Bylaws, the history,

doubt be seamless!
