The subcommittee was asked to begin preparation of a study proposal providing long-term continuity for the case registry activities at the end of the presently contemplated one-year period. The chairman named the following individuals as an epidemiology subcommittee to prepare the proposal: J. H. Wolfsie, M. D., chairman G. J. Stopps, M. D. J. A, Pendergrass T. R. Torkelson CMA 012822 OHC-38 The Ccmmittee discussed briefly the drafts of the three technical papers on the project that are now being prepared for publication.
