The International Astronomical Union Symposium No. 70 on Be and
Shell Stars, the Merrill-McLaughlin Memorial Symposium, was held in
Bass River (Cap Cod), Massachusetts, U. S. A. , from September 15th
through 18th, 1975. Fifty-three astronomers from Argentina,
Belgium, Canada, Czechoslovakia, France, Israel, the United
Kingdom, the United States, and the Vatican attended and
participated in the Symposium. This volume, which parallels the
actual program closely, contains the papers presented at the
Symposium plus most of the discussion following the papers. New
observational techniques and fresh theoretical ideas have resulted
over the past few years in a renewed interest in Be and shell
stars. At IAU Symposium No. 51 on Extended Atmospheres and
Circumstellar Matter in Spectroscopic Binary Sys tems, the Otto
Struve Memorial Symposium, in Parksville, British Columbia, Canada,
three years ago, a number of participants expressed the wish to
organize a symposium on Be and shell stars. If we wish to identify
an official 'Father of IAU Symposium No. 70', it would be Mirek
Plavec who, in his capacity as President of IAU Commission 42
(Photometric Double Stars) requested and received the cooperation
of Commissions 29 (Stellar Spectra) and 36 (Stellar Atmospheres),
suggested an Organizing Committee, and wrote to the IAU General
Secretary in 1973 requesting that the IAU Executive Committee
approve the proposed confer ence as an IAU Symposium.
