Newly Elected Division Officers for 1987 Four new officers of the Division of Analytical Chemistry of the American Chemical Society were elected recently. The current chairman is Mary Kaiser of Du Pont's polymer products department. The 1987 chairman-elect is Roland Hirsch. Hirsch attended Oberlin College and the University of Michigan and joined the faculty of Seton Hall University in 1965. His research has been primarily in ion exchange and chemometrics. His publications have covered topics in chromatography and liquid membrane ion-selective electrode potentiometry, analysis of variance, factor analysis, and topological analysis. He served as the secretary of the division from 1980 through 1983 and has been a member of the advisory board of ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY. Hirsch

Society Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio, in September. The award is sponsored by Mettler Instrument Corporation to recognize and encourage individual achievement in the field of thermal analysis. Wiedemann studied at the College of Applied Technology, Kôthen, G.D.R., and at the University of Berne, Switzerland. He is responsible for special applications at Mettler Instrumente AG in Greifensee, Switzerland, including programs involving thermal analysis in archeology, historic objects, and mineralogy. He helped develop the first Mettler thermal system, the TA1, introduced in 1964, in addition to a number of subsequent thermal products.
CHEMRAWN IV An international conference and workshop entitled "Modern Chemistry and Chemical Technology Applied to the Ocean and Its Resources" will be held during the week of Oct. 4-9, 1987, at the Keystone Conference Center, Keystone, Colo. The conference is the fourth in the CHEMRAWN (Chemical Research Applied to World Needs) series, sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
