Bob, At the end of this letter is the TEX code that should print the two
pages AMS needs. Please send two or three copies of the TEXed pages to Ms.
Marge Cummings at the AMS address appearing on the second page of output.
Please let me know if you have any problems. Thanks very much for your help.

The American Mathematical Society has an advisory Standing Committee on
Composition Technology. Currently the Society contemplates the addition
of a \TEX\ capability to its other type\-setting facilities. In addition, the
committee is investigating the development of a \TEX-based system to
permit authors of papers for AMS (and eventually other) journals to ``typeset''
their papers themselves on their own institutions' computer systems. Because
of this expected involvement with \TEX, the AMS has a natural interest in
seeing the development of a strong and healthy \TEX\ users' group, for such
purposes as overseeing the certification of and the distribution of information
on implementations of the \TEX\ system, their maintenance and upward-compatible
enhancements. The above committee announces its readiness to help in the
initial organization of such a users' group. If you feel you might be
interested either in belonging to such a group or in receiving information
from it, please fill out and return one of the reply forms at the back of this
manual.}}

\:f The author wishes to thank the many individuals who made
helpful comments on the first drafts of this manual, and especially Leo
Guibas for his help in producing copies on experimental graphics printing
equipment. Thanks are also due to
the National Science Foundation and to the Office of Naval Research,
for helping to support the author's research
under grants \hbox{MCS 72-03752 A03} and
\hbox{N00014-76-C-0330}. Since the METAFONT
system for typeface design is still under development, the type fonts used
herein are only initial approximations to the eventual ones.\par}
