24 October at 15.00-17.00 hrs, under the Chairmanship o fProfessor Udo E. Simonis, President of the Society. The Agenda, large as usual, was covered on time for the Executive Council to be free to welcome WSE members arriving for the second program, the 1st C.A. Doxiadis Lecture. Naturally the five members who had to cancel their attendance at the last minute were sorely missed. But most of all, those present missed Professor Wesley W. Posvar, immediate Past President of the Society, and in deep sorrow they discussed his untimely and unexpected death on 27 July, 2001. His extremely important role was remembered in promoting the active mobilization of WSE members through his initiative in calling the meetings in Pittsburgh and Athens in 1999, and in Čelákovice in the year 2000. Also remembered was the joy of both Millie and Wesin Prague a year ago, prior to their trip to Germany to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.
