Fifty Papers To Be Read On Combustion Engines At Int'l Meeting In Spain The Eleventh International Congress on Combustion Engines will be held in Barcelona, Spain, April 27-May 3, 1975. CIMAC (from the French trans- lation, Conseil International Des Machines A Combustion) is an international organization for promoting technical and scientific knowledge in the field or diesel engines and gas turbines. Each member country of CI- MAC has a national committee which organizes and disseminates the information for that country. The U.S. National Committee is sponsored by the Diesel and Gas Engine Power Division, and the Gas Turbine Division of the Amer- ican Society of Mechanical Engi- neers. The meetings, held every two years, are attended by approxi- mately 700 of the world's leading engineers in the field of combus- tion engines. The last meeting was held in Washington in 1973. Approximately 50 papers on new and important developments and experiences are scheduled for presentation in Barcelona by en- gineers from 14 different coun- tries. In order to obtain a substantial reduction in the round-trip air fare to Barcelona, a special-group flight has been planned for the meeting. Detailed information concern- ing the meeting and the special flight may be obtained by writing to Robert L. Stanley, 214 Midvale Street, Falls Church, Va. 22046. Telephone (202) 426-0724. M.J.H.
