VIPS TOUR CCOPE

Earlier this month, UCAR president Robert Whiteand NCAR director Wilmot Hess hosted a tour toMiles City, Montana--site of the joint NCAR/Bureauof Reclamation's Cooperative Convective Precipita-tion Experiment (CCOPE). Guests on the tour in-cluded National Science Foundation (NSF) directorJohn Slaughter, Egene Bierly (director of NSF'sDivision of Atmospheric Sciences), and CurrieDownie (program coordinator in NSF's Division ofAtmospheric Sciences).

In the photo above (left to right) Hess, BernardSilverman (Bureau of Reclamation), Bierly, Downie,Robert Serafin (director of NCAR's AtmosphericTechnology Division, in the background), Slaughter,White, and Arnett Dennis (Bureau of Reclamation),listen to a description of the NCAR CP-2 Dopplerradar by Frank Harold (Convective Storms Division),and John McCarthy and John Militzer (AtmosphericTechnology Division).

In the photo at right, John Slaughter examinesNCAR's sailplane with James Dye of NCAR's Convec-tive Storms Division.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

NEW ART

The Employee Activities Committee (EAC) willsponsor the annual NCAR evening at Elitch Gardenson 5 August this year. (Elitch's is a well-knownamusement park in Denver.) Unlimited ride passeswill be available from the EAC for $6, and partici-pants not interested in ride tickets must pay $2for gene&ral gate admission. The Carousel Pavilionhas been reserved for NCAR from 11:00 a.m. to11:00 p.m., and free beer and soft drinks will beserved from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. The passes requiredfor unlimited rides and soft drinks (two softdrinks per person) may be obtained from DorothyKokesh at the receptionist's desk in the main lobbyof the Mesa Laboratory beginning Wednesday,29 July. (The unlimited ride pass is redeemable atElitch's with $6, and no pass is required forgeneral gate admission.) Please keep in mind thatthe number of passes is limited and thereforeavailable only to NCAR staff and their families.

Mann Theatre Discount Tickets

The new discount tickets for the Mann Theatresare available from the following people:

Dorothy Kokesh, ML receptionist's desk, ext. 266Susan Inman, RL-6, ext. 77-129Nancy Leach, RL-3, ext. 77-709

The tickets are good through 30 December 1981,and still cost only $2.50.

NOAA/ERL SEMINAR

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra-tion's Environmental Research Laboratories willpresent their next seminar on Friday, 7 August.The topic of the seminar is the use of opticalsingle particle counters to measure spatialinhomogeneities of particulate clouds, and thespeaker will be Professor Preining of theUniversity of Vienna, Austria. The seminar will beheld in room 620, RL-3 (30th and Marine Streets) at10:00 a.m.

Staff Notes is published weekly by the PublicationsOffice of the National Center for AtmosphericResearch, P.O. Box 3000, Boulder, Colorado 80307.

Writer/Editor: Sally BatesProduction Assistants: Mary Boyer, Reed Glenn

Copy deadline is 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday for publica-tion on Friday. Office: Mesa Laboratory room 259.Phone : 303-494-5151, ext. 644.

A special work of etched glass art, created byBoulder artist Randy Beaver, has been hung on theeast facing window of the second floor gallery ofthe Mesa Laboratory. The artwork, an adaptation of

a National Aeronautics and Space Administration/NCAR Solar Maximum satellite photograph which ap-peared in Life magazine, uses halotion (halo-effect)--a blending of color and sandblasted peachmirror glass--to diffuse light. Beaver, who cur-rently teaches stained glass techniques through theCommunity Free School, has coordinated stainedglass exhibits in Boulder for the past six yearsand has displayed his works throughout the UnitedStates. For more information about his work, con-tact the artist at 442-2920 or the InformationOffice, ext. 261.

SPECIAL MOTEL RATES FOR NCAR

Most motels in the Boulder area offer specialgovernment or group rates to NCAR. Two of thesemotels, the Harvest House and the Boulder Inn/BestWestern, will grant these special rates only ifreservations are made through the NCAR ConferenceOffice. Vonda Giesey, NCAR's conference coordi-nator, in addition to booking conference groups,will be happy to reserve rooms at any of the localmotels for people visiting NCAR for any purpose.Vonda can be reached at ext. 222, ML room 136.

COMPUTING LECTURE

John Reid of the Computer Science Division of theAtomic Energy Research Establishment in Harwell,England, will give a talk on "Sparse Matrix Codeson the CRAY-I" at 10:00 a.m. on 31 July in theDamon Room of the Mesa Laboratory. The lecture isopen to anyone interested in attending.

CAFETERIA NEWS

The "special special" for next Wednesday,29 July, will be chicken breast with walnut sauce,potatoes, a vegetable, cake, and coffee or tea, allfor $2.

The breakfast special for next week will be acheese omelette, toast, and coffee or tea for $1.10

Each week a free lunch is awarded to the personwhose name is drawn from a fishbowl of signedlunch receipts in the Mesa Laboratory cafeteria.The free lunch must be collected within a week ofthe Tuesday drawing. The winner' s name will beposted in the cafeteria above the bowl, and willalso appear in Staff Notes (on Friday) as areminder. This weekswinneris:
