PURIFIER with its fail-safe monitoring, will make water safe for drinking, cooking or washing. It achieves complete purification without chlorine or injurious chemicals, freeing water of all its germs and viruses without changing its natural taste or imparting any odor.

The U-V Water Purifier is easy to install, requires little or no maintenance and has a very low operating cost. It exceeds U.S.

Public Health standards and is chosen by the U.S. government for use in continental and overseas installations.

USN, post chairman; George Ireland, USCG, outgoing chairman, and Charles Zeien, speaker.

Charles Zeien, executive vice president of

J.J. Henry Co., Inc., addressed the Metropoli- tan (New York) Section of the American Soci- ety of Naval Engineers at the Whitehall Club on April 2, 1974. During the luncheon meeting,

Mr. Zeien spoke on metricaJtion, describing its inevitability and importance, particularly with

U.S. goods manufactured for export. He re- lated that once there is a demand for goods built to metric standards, production will fol- low. Further, cost for shipyard conversion to metrication is not prohibitive.

The annual election of officers took place at this meeting, with Robert Fricke, Jose Femi- nia and Lt. Greg Labas, USCG, being elected chairman, vice chairman and secretary-treasur- er, respectively. Capt. Lee Mitchell, USN, was elected to the executive Committee.

Following the meeting, plaques were pre- sented to Mr. Zeien, the speaker; Capt. Ed

Barker, USN, initial chairman of the N.Y.

ASNE Chapter; and to Lt. Cmdr. George F.
