Joint CIC-ACS Conference Celebrates 25th Anniversary of The Chemical Institute of Canada Toronto, May 24 to 29, 1970
ΓΤΊΗΒ ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY DIVISIONS of the ACS and
-*- the CIC have planned a full program of technical papers at the Joint CIC-ACS Conference. Symposia on gas and liquid chromatography, analytical chemistry in space ex ploration, and general papers are complemented by joint symposia with other divisions on recent advances in nuclear methods of analysis and scanning electron microscopy of polymer and coatings. The latter sessions, which will be held Wednesday and Thursday, May 27 and 28, are sponsored jointly with the Colloid and Surface Chemistry and Organic Coatings and Plastics Chemistry, ACS and Protective Coat ings, CIC. The sessions on recent advances in nuclear methods, which will be held Wednesday, May 27, are spon sored jointly by divisions of Nuclear Chemistry and Tech nology, ACS, and Inorganic Chemistry, CIC. The CIC Fisher Scientific, Ltd., Award will be presented at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday to R. P. Graham, FCIC, of McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Of the two short courses scheduled in conjunction with the meeting, one on analytical instrumentation in process control is of special interest to analytical chemists, and will be given May 23 to 24. I t will be conducted by F . W. Karasek of the University of Waterloo, Ont., and R. J. Loyd and R. A. Hagstrom. There will also be a Canadian Chemical Exhibition which will be held at the Royal York Hotel, May 26-28. Further details on activities of the Division of Analytical Chemistry are available from the Secretary-Treasurer, Richard S. Juvet, Jr., Department of Chemistry and Chemi cal Engineering, University of Illinois, Urbana, 111., 61801. Complete details of the Joint CIC-ACS Conference are con
