Abstract :
SAN DIEGO was host to the AIEE Pacific General Meeting and Aero-Space Transportation Conference held August 8–12, 1960, in the El Cortez Hotel. A well-arranged program comprised of 172 papers, many of which explored the barriers of outer space, was combined with two luncheons, a dinner and theater party, harbor cruise and Hawaiian luau, and a banquet and dinner dance, as well as inspection trips to the nearby industries. Twenty committees met during the 4 days of the meeting, and a busy program for the visiting ladies was arranged by Mrs. M. R. Marston, chairman of the Ladies Entertainment Committee. More than 850 members and guests attended the meeting.
