AN ACT TO PLACE THE NORTH CAROLINA SYMPHONY
SOCIETY, INCORPORATED, UNDER THE PATRONAGE
AND CONTROL OF THE STATE, AND TO AUTHORIZE
THE GOVERNOR AND COUNCIL OF STATE TO MAKE
AN ALLOTMENT FROM THE CONTINGENCY AND
EMERGENCY FUND IN AID THEREOF.
Whereas, the North Carolina Symphony Society, Incorporated,
is an organization of citizens of this State interested in making
fine music available to the people of the State and promoting
interest and appreciation of fine music by the citizenship of
the State; and
Whereas, the said Society is a non-stock, non-profit organiza¬
tion organized by patriotic North Carolinians for the said pur¬
pose, and has functioned since one thousand nine hundred and
thirty-two by giving two hundred concerts in twenty cities and
communities; and
Whereas, the plan and the purposes of the said organization
are distinctly educational, particular emphasis being made on
increasing the love and appreciation of music by the children of
the State, by giving free concerts for the children ; and
Whereas, it is desired by the members of said Society to
place it under the patronage and control of the State, to the
end that its permanency may be assured and that the State
may to some extent lend financial aid necessary for the support
thereof: Now, therefore,
The General Assembly of North Carolina do enact:
Section 1. That the governing body of the North Carolina
Symphony Society, Incorporated, shall be a board of directors
consisting of sixteen members, of which the Governor of the
State and the Superintendent of Public Instruction shall be ex
officio members, and four other members shall be named by the
Governor. The remaining ten directors shall be chosen by the
members of the North Carolina Symphony Society, Incorporated,
in such manner and at such times as that body shall determine.
Sec. 2. That of the four members first named by the Governor,
two shall be appointed for terms of two years each and two
for terms of four years each, and subsequent appointments shall
be made for terms of four years each.
Sec. 3. That the said board of directors, when organized
under the terms of this Act, shall have authority to adopt
bylaws for the Society and said bylaws shall thereafter be
subject to change only by a three fifths vote of a quorum of
said board of directors.
