1982 ANNUAL MEETING The 1982 Annual Meeting of the Materials Research Society will be held in the Boston, Massachusetts, Park Plaza Hotel November 1-4. This year's meeting, organized by a committee consisting of Lynn A. Boatner, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Leroy L. Chang, IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, and Elton N. Kaufman, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, will consist of 15 interdisciplinary, topical symposia, a plenary session, business meetings and award ceremonies. Non-members (as well as members of the Society) are welcome to attend and participate, and will be enrolled as members automatically as part of their registration. The Plenary Session on Nov. 1 is entitled "Materials R&D in the U.S. Are We Still Competitive?" Chaired by A. R. C. Westwood of Martin Marietta Laboratory, the session will feature distinguished invited speakers who will present their views on this subject and identify the crucial issues that must be addressed if materials research and development is to improve. The Society's greatest honor, the Von Hippel Award, will be bestowed at a special ceremony Nov. 2, on a scientist who, in the judgment of the MRS leadership, best exemplifies the rigorous scientific approach and interdisciplinary spirit required to advance materials science. At past annual meetings remarks by the Von
Hippel winner have proved especially memorable and popular gatherings. At the Von Hippel ceremony the Graduate Student Awards also will be presented. Articles about the student and Von Hippel awards appear elsewhere in this issue of the Bulletin.
