UCLA CHAPTER REPORT Student Chapter Focuses On Distinguished Speakers Program

The UCLA Chapter of the Materials Research Society has begun a regular program of distinguished speakers for its growing membership and other graduate and undergraduate students. Describing the flagship student affiliate its President, Edward J.A. Pope, says "we're strong and healthy—and growing." Pope reports that three prominent materials scientists have addressed the UCLA Chapter recently: Prof. Sumio Sakka of the Department of Industrial Chemistry of Japan's MIE University spoke on the topic, "Glasses and Ceramics by the Sol-gel Process." Prof. Rustum Roy, head of the Materials Research Laboratory at The Pennsylvania State University (and a founder and Councillor of the MRS) gave, "An Overview of Sol-gel Processing Technology." Prof. Adrian Wright, Department of

Physics, Reading University, spoke on, "Neutron Diffraction Studies of Amorphous Solids." "While the Distinguished Speakers Program is a top priority with our Chapter," Pope says, "we have also held regular meetings and co-sponsored several major departmental events, including picnics, mixers and freshman orientation tours. For example, we cosponsored a conference and industrial mixer for visiting businessmen on Oct. 22." The Materials Research Society actively promotes the establishment of student chapters. Anyone interested in learning first-hand the experiences of the UCLA Chapter is invited to contact Pope through the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, School of Engineering and Applied Science, UCLA, Los Angeles, Calif. 90024.

Process Industry Sets Meeting on Materials Technology A conference entitled "Advances in Materials Technology for Process Industries' Needs" will be held at the Atlanta, Ga., Hilton Oct. 29-31, 1984, to bring together process industry technologists and materials scientists and engineers. The meeting is sponsored by the Federation of Materials Societies, its 12 member societies, and other organizations involved in materials and processing technologies. It will be managed by the National Association of Corrosion Engineers. The conference program is being arranged by a steering
