SAE's SAMC Rescheduled for April 2002

    WARRENDALE, Pa., Sept. 21 The SAE Southern Automotive
Manufacturing Conference and Exhibition, which was originally scheduled for
October 8-10 in Greenville, South Carolina, has been rescheduled for April
8-10, 2002.
    The rescheduled conference will be held, as previously slated, at the
Palmetto Expo Center in Greenville.
    SAE International, together with the host company for the program, BMW
Manufacturing Corp., made the decision to postpone the conference following
the tragic national events of September 11th.  Many international and domestic
conference participants expect to experience significant travel restrictions,
and numerous pre-registered attendees have been forced to cancel their
reservations.
    The professional development seminars scheduled in conjunction with the
SAMC will continue to be held October 8-10 at the Hyatt Regency in Greenville,
South Carolina, as previously scheduled.  The titles of these seminars are:
Supervision of Engineers and the Technical Staff; The Tire as a Vehicle
Component; Tire & Wheel Safety Issues; Lean Manufacturing, Planning and
Implementation; and Tolerance Stack-Up Analysis.
