Subject: American Theater Organ Society

     Oregon State University has been contacted about obtaining "Historical
     Instrument" status from the American Theater Organ Society for a 1927
     Wurlitzer theater organ that was moved to the campus in 1961 from a
     local movie theater.

     We would appreciate information and insight from anyone familiar with
     the American Theater Organ Society or its historic theater organ
     preservation program, especially anyone with responsibility for an
     instrument that has acquired this "historic" status.

     Please reply directly to:
