Attention F.J. Byrne

Dear Sirs:

          Our proposed Western New York Chapter of the Human Factors Society held its third meeting in Buffalo on March 17, 1966. This was the first meeting at which the newly elected state of officers presided. The new officers are:

 
  President: Melvin Rudov  
  President-Elect: Harry L. Davis  
  Vice President: Carl von Sternberg  
  Treasurer: B. Richard Bernstein  
  Secretary: Terrence W. Faulkner  

            Harry Davis spoke on the application of human factors techniques to the study of industrial work. He showed how measures such as heart rate and oxygen consumption can be used in the design of jobs or in determining the ability of specific individuals to do certain jobs.

          We hope to have all of the materials that are needed to justify our admission as a chapter of the Human Factors Society together and in the mail within a few weeks. We are still picking up new members and the prospects for our Western New York Chapter look very bright.

 
  Sincerely,

 

Terrence W. Faulkner
