Emmett Memorial Symposium Program at the 190th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, Chicago, Illlnois, September 8-13, 1985 This symposium was intended to honor Professor Emmett on his 85th year. He provided suggestions during the early stages of the development of the plans for the meeting. As the deadline for committing to a final program approached, it was questionable whether he would be able to attend the Chicago meeting. It was finally decided that the symposium should be held; unfortunately his death on April 22 changed the nature of the program. The program for the two-day symposium included the following: “Paul H. Emmett-Scientist, Educator, Boss and Friend”, W. K. Hall; “Ammonia Synthesis over Iron Single Crystal Catalysts. The Effects of Potassium Promotion”, S. R. Bare, D. Strongin, G. A.
