CENTENARY MEETING OF THE SOCIETY AT RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

The American Microscopical Society, along with the American Society of Zoologists and the Society of Systematic Zoology, will be holding annual meetings at the Hotel John Marshall in Richmond, Virginia, 27-30 December 1978. Our own gathering will be a very special one, of course, as we shall be celebrating our Centenary Meeting. One hundred years of microscopy in America!

Symposia open to members of all participating societies are being arranged on the following topics: Microscopical Structure and Distribution of Silicon in



148 TRANS. AMER. MICROS. SOC., VOL. 97, NO. 2, APRIL 1978

Biological Systems; Contribution of Electron Microscopy to Systematics; Ultra- sonic Communication in Rodents; Seasonal Breeding in Higher Vertebrates; Respiratory Pigments: Structures; Function and Environmental Adaptations; Thermoregulation in Ectotherms; Insect Thermoregulation; Cell Surfaces in De- velopment and Cancer; Competition between Distantly Related Taxa; Asexual Reproduction in Animals; Contemporary Methods in Systematic Parasitology; Philosophical Issues in Systematics; and Morphology and the Analysis of Adapta- tion. In addition, a Workshop on Major Problems in Crustacean Biology is being planned.

The call for contributed papers has been issued and abstracts for our Society are due 15 August 1978. The other two societies have an abstract deadline of 1 September.

Celebrating our centennial year, our Society will have a special Banquet, an evening program of reminiscences conducted by Clarence Goodnight, and a Past- Presidential address by John H. Bushnell, as well as poster and paper sessions (and the first two symposia mentioned above). A novel attraction will be the presentation one afternoon of the skit "Our Microscopic Past Magnified Upon the Stage," produced and directed by dramatist Lawrence Crockett, with a cast of thousands (or fewer).

Hugo James, charge d'affaires for the banquet, has arranged for the printing of an elaborate and invaluable souvenir centennial program for each person at- tending. Among other items, it will contain a current Membership List of the Society. Only those who have paid their dues by 1 September 1978 will be in- cluded, however, so encourage colleagues who are budding (or full-blown) mi- croscopists to join NOW.

We should like to urge our members again to contribute to the American Microscopical Society Centennial Fund. All contributions, which are tax deduct- ible, should be made out to the "Fund" and sent to Robert W. Husband, Treasurer, American Microscopical Society, Department of Biology, Adrian College, Adrian, Michigan 49221. We need your help!

Special programs of other groups at the Richmond meetings include "The Birth and Growth of the ASZ," sponsored by the Committee on the History of the American Society of Zoologists; "Should the ASZ Take Positions on Current Social Issues?," a workshop-discussion by the Public Affairs Committee of the American Society of Zoologists; and "Coccoliths to Dinosaurs: 100 years of Paleontologic Research in the U.S.," sponsored by the U.S. Geological Survey. A Wine and Cheese Party, a Reception and Luncheon following the ASZ Presi- dential Address, and Divisional Cash Bar Socials are being arranged by ASZ. There will also be Commercial Exhibits, a Job Placement Service, and a Baby- sitting Service.

For more information and abstract forms, contact: Thomas K. Sawyer, Vice President and Program Officer, American Microscopical Society, U.S. Depart- ment of Commerce, NOAA, NMFS, Biological Laboratories, Oxford, Maryland 21654 (telephone: 301/226-5193); or Mary Wiley, Business Manager, American Society of Zoologists, Box 2739 California Lutheran College, Thousand Oaks, CA 91360 (telephone: 805/492-4055). Incidentally, Hotel John Marshall is making available quite low room rates for us: $18 for singles and $24 for doubles. Bring a friend!
