Astrological Signs predict major scientific happening in Glasgow in the summer of 1999. The blessed event is being planned by program chair Judith Howard and Local Chair Chris Gilmore, shown in the photo on the lower right-hand corner of the cover. There will be plenty of mutton on hand. More than eight wise persons are expected to follow the rising star of crystallography to Glasgow. The eight Nobel Laureates shown on the cover (Standing: J. Karle, H. Deisenhofer, H. Hauptman, H. Michel, seated: J. Kendrew, C. Shull, B. Brockhouse, W. Lipscomb) attended the XVII Congress in Seattle.
