When the Executive Committee of the International Astronomical
Union asked me, in 1968, to organize a Symposium on White Dwarfs it
became evident that members of at least four Commissions of the IAU
should participate, and that the most oppor tune place, and time to
hold such a Symposium would be somewhere in the British Isles and
just preceding the Fourteenth General Assembly at Brighton in
August, 1970. After a preliminary correspondence with Dr. D. W. N.
Stibbs it was decided to accept his invitation to hold the
Symposium at St. Andrews University, Scotland, while the dates
11-13 August 1970 were selected. I am sure I speak for all the
partici pants of the Symposium when I express our deep gratitude to
Dr. Stibbs for the admirable way in which he planned and organized
this meeting down to the smallest details - the success of the
conference is due in no small measure to his continuous and
painstaking efforts. An organizing committee was formed, consisting
of O. J. Eggen (Photometry), J. L. Greenstein (Spectroscopy), A. G.
Masevitch (Stellar Interiors), V. Weidemann (Stellar Atmospheres),
D. W. N. Stibbs (local chairman), with myself (Proper Motions and
Parallaxes) as overall chairman.
