Fellow MAS Members,=20 I hope that all of you have made your plans to = attend=20 Microscopy and Microanalysis '97 in Cleveland. The program that = has been=20 developed by the program committee is outstanding and should = provide=20 something of interest to all MAS members. So please plan to = attend. For=20 more information I refer you to Jon McCarthy's note elsewhere in = this=20 issue of Micro News. I would like to bring one event in particular = to your=20 attention. MAS will again sponsor a reception for our members = during the=20 meeting. So if you are at the meeting make sure to stop by the MAS = booth=20 to say "hi" and get your ticket for the reception. I would like to = encourage MAS members to attend the MAS business meeting that will = be held=20 during M&M'97 (Wed., Aug. 13, 5 p.m., Rm. R208, Convention = Center).=20 These meetings are an important way for you , the society members, = to have=20 your voices heard.=20 During this year's business meeting we have = some=20 important issues to discuss and vote on. I think that one of the = most=20 important pieces of business is the nominations of candidates for = the=20 upcoming elections. Please make suggestions for nominations to = members of=20 the nominating committee before the election. We are always = looking for=20 members to become more actively involved in the society. Another = issue is=20 a change to the MAS bylaws. Changes to the bylaws require a vote = by the=20 membership at the annual meeting.

	Microscopy and Microanalysis 1997=20 Final Program Summary
	On the next page is a schedule of the final = scientific=20 program for Microscopy and Microanalysis 1997. Please take a few = minutes=20 to scan this summary. You will find that topics of interest to you = and MAS=20 members in general are a major part of this year's program. This = is due to=20 the effort of many of our members who, as session chairpersons, = planned=20 the topics and recruited invited and contributed speakers. They = have made=20 my job easier, and made sure that the interests of our membership = are met=20 in this meeting. Now its your turn to do your part! Make you plans = to=20 attend the meeting this week!=20 Now that the details are settled, let me call = your=20 attention to some very special events. On Monday afternoon, we = will have=20 the Life on Mars? The Role of Microanalysis session. In = this=20 presentation, scientists from both sides of this debate will give = us the=20 latest information and review the evidence on this fascinating = subject.=20 This year, we will have an extraordinary joint = MAS/MSA=20 Presidential Events session, that extends over two days. The = first=20 session follows up on the Life on Mars? symposium with a = keynote=20 address by Apollo 15 Astronaut, Al Wordin. Ask anyone who attended = our=20 last encounter with an Astronaut at MAS 1995; this is one session = you=20 don't want to miss! The Presidential Happenings concludes = on=20 Tuesday, with a presentation by Andy White of Industrial Light and = Magic.=20 With 3-D Visualization of data becoming so important in the = presentation=20 of microscopy results, perhaps we can all gain some inspiration = from the=20 visualization of the mighty "Thunder Lizard", = the T-REX.=20 The rest of the program contains lots of = excellent=20 science for everyone of us. Please plan to join us in Cleveland = August=20 10-14, you will not be disappointed!=20 Jon J. McCarthy
	Nominations

	As I wrote in the last issue of MicroNews, as=20 president-elect I am chairman of the MAS nominations committee = this year.=20 Other members of the committee are the two new directors, Cathy = Johnson=20 and Don Parker as well as Paul Hlava. One more member, Scott = Walck, has=20 been appointed to the committee which will present nominations for = the=20 fall 1997 election at the MAS Business Meeting which will be held = during=20 the M&M'97 Meeting in Cleveland (Wed., 5 p.m., Rm. R208, = Convention=20 Center).=20 In the last MicroNews issue I asked for = opinions from the=20 membership regarding the number of nominations for Executive = Council=20 positions. The by-laws require only one nomination to those = positions=20 while some members suggested that two nominations should be made. = I want=20 you to know that I received no response on this subject from MAS = members,=20 so I can only assume that it does not matter to the majority of = the MAS=20 membership how many nominations are put forth by the committee. I = would=20 like to remind you that additional nominations for all positions = can be=20 made at the business meeting.=20 Ryna Marinenko
