The six-digit number listed with each paper is used in the
indexing system developed for the 1975 IECEC: These
papers will be included in the cumulative index to be issued
later in 1975. "
PLENARY SESSION
This is the 10th IECEC. We just completed our first decade
of activity which saw the successful development of ad¬
vanced power systems for space. As we look toward the
next decade, we see a resurgence of interest in terrestrial
power. We must be able to utilize our advanced technologyto develop high performance in economically acceptable
systems that will permit a solution of our present energy
crisis. We look toward the energy suppliers and energy
users to provide guidance in setting goals and direction for
research and development on advanced energy conversion
techniques. This session will establish the importance of the
entire conference by providing the insight of our nation's
energy leaders.

have been made since the early deadline for papers can
possibly be presented at this session. A one page abstract
of these current results, reviews, papers, news, etc., must
be submitted to C. E. Backus, Program Chairman, before
7 p.m. August 20, 1975. The program committee will
decide on the content and format of the evening session
