FOSTER PLAQUE TO LENZ: We have learned that Dr. Lee W. Lenz has been awarded the Foster Plaque for 1969 by the British Iris Society. Dr. Lenz, a former member of the Board of Directors of the American Iris Soc:ety, and for a number of years chairman of the Scientific Committee, has done superlative research, especially with the California natives and with spurias. His reputation in research is international, and made him a very logical choice for this very high honor. [AIS Bulletin #196(January 1970): 17]
