We have taken part to an exceptionally rich colloquium, characterized by a large amount of information in all fields of physics, and a remarkable collection of observational data. Our understanding of what is going on inside the stars has changed in a radical manner during the last years, on one side because the observations are bringing new kinds of information, and on the other side because theory in its development is taking into account a number of processes, some of them having been completely ignored only ten years ago.It is impossible to draw here a complete list of problems. There are many cases where some inconsistency could be found in the theory itself or some contradiction between observational data and theory. I recommended that such a list should be drawn carefully. The participants to the round table discussion will give their contribution, helping to open the way to new fields of research and to new discoveries.

Chairman Costello: The management of vascular nevi is of great interest to the pediatrician. He more than any other specialist, including the general practitioner, is first consulted regarding the advisability of treating a hemangioma and as to the best method of treatment which will insure a good therapeutic and cosmetic result. Since there appears to be no unanimity of opinion regarding these points, it was thought that a round table discussion by a small group would help us envision a better approach to this interesting and important problem. Permit me to preface my remarks by stating that some pediatricians believe that the dermatologist and radiologist are apt to treat hemangiomas too early and that there are hemangiomas treated which would have disappeared spontaneously, this latter thought being influenced to a great extent by the report of Lister who claimed that superficial hemangiomas will disappear completely in the great majority of cases. The dermatologist and radiologist, on the other hand, believe that the pediatrician in some instances, because of the opinion expressed above, permits too long a time to elapse before treatment is instituted, thereby losing the golden opportunity for effective rapid permanent cure of these hemangiomas. There are arguments to be advanced in the substantiation of both opinions, and it is for this reason that we hope by free and open discussion to arrive at a more accurate answer to the questions which have been raised. In this brief presentation it is hoped that I will be able to place in sharp relief all the important aspects of heredity or familial incidence of these lesions, the time of their occurrence, the types, their behavior and significance, the indicated type of therapy, and the results which may be accomplished in. their proper treatment.

AbstractI write these notes on Romans 15:1–33 (read together with 1:1–15 and other passages of Romans) as resources for a group discussion of Romans 15 and its teaching about mission for the group's life context. I presuppose that the group will want to have three rounds of discussion. According to the size of the group these three rounds can take place in one long session – with the larger group breaking down in smaller groups and coming back together three times, for instance during an evening – or in three shorter sessions. The first round-table discussion is focused on the group members' first readings of Romans 15. The second round-table involves comparing the members' readings with those of scholars. For this purpose, since there are presently three types of scholarly readings of Romans, I present them, underscoring the different ways they conceive of Paul's teaching about mission. Throughout I also presuppose that each member of the group is committed to "read with" the other members this text of Paul as a Scripture about mission, a process that requires a third round-table.

Chairman Osborne: The material which we will cover will be material which must be spoken about in terms of groups of people, types of individuals and different classifications of diagnosis. We will lose a great deal of the effect of what we have to discuss if we get off on a small subject connected with an individual case, so I hope we can refrain from citing specific cases. You all recognize that we can't make progress if any of us are going to present specific individual problems on a specific case. Fortunately we have some disagreement among members of the panel for where everyone agrees there is a lack of interest, especially in the field of cutaneous diseases, and particularly in the eczematous diseases. If we seem to disagree it is because the material calls for disagreement and the literature backs us up on that disagreement. We are going to start with the general phase of the subject: the care of the skin of the newborn. I am going to ask Dr. Norman Ross to discuss the care of the skin of the newborn from the standpoint of the pediatrician. Dr. Ross: In these newborn infants overzealous cleaning of the baby and too much anxiety on the part of the nurse following birth is apt to do far more harm than good. The baby when born has a membranous covering that should not be too thoroughly and vigorously removed. Soap is not advisable. Plain water will remove sufficient of it and, in fact, delay of thorough bathing of the infant for a few days would probably be advisable.
