It was an 1usified meeting many-of the papers presented were not rel;Ated even r-tely, to the work of MC. It seems as if the papers rsented at such unclassified meetings all fall into one of two distinct ,u rings. Zither they are extemely elementary and basic, or, in a few eases, they are quite detailed but they cover in great detail some highly specialized subject like "Passive Microwave Deter- aenations of Bmw Wetness Factors" with many charts diagrams,, mstbetic formulas,, etc. A complete transcript of each of the piers will be distributed later to all attendees. A person really interested in one or more of the subjects covered can get as much or re f reading the transcript as he can from attending the meetings. I will concede, however, that benefit can be derived from the "*=tacts" made at such meetings. r t.o on the other hand, was 25X1 A .e.
