Note:
A virtually-complete set of concert programs saved by Harold Lawrence over a 40-year period reveal that the orchestra's 33rd concert was performed on December 7, 1933. The next program in his collection is numbered as the 40th concert in the PSO'shistory, performed on February 7, 1934. It is thought likely that between these two dates the PSO officials performed a review of historical concert records; six (6) concerts were not likely to have been presented in such a short span of time, expecially under severe Depression economic conditions then prevailing. Thus a "recount" took place of the number of total concerts throughout the history of the orchestra, to subsequently include 6 concerts performed by symphony members that previously had not been considered "official concerts". Since five concerts conducted under Arthur Kendall during 1924 to 1926 had earlier not been among the count, perhaps they were the bulk of the additional concerts included in the revised-upward total (however, some contradiction exists involving three of the five, since each respectively was a six-day series of the same program).
