http://jchemed.chem.wisc.edu/Journal/Issues/1996/Dec/absA298.html states:
"MUACC, the Midwest University Analytical Chemistry Conference, is
celebrating its 50th anniversary. According to longtime MUACC attendee Carl
Moore from Loyola University, the organization "started out with Hobart
Willard, an analytical chemistry professor from the University of Michigan
and two of his very precocious students, G. Frederick Smith and Harvey
Diehl. After Smith and Diehl earned their doctorates, the three kept a
close, almost family relationship. Somehow, they got the idea to get
together about once a year, visit, talk chemistry, talk about ongoing work,
talk `blue sky' work, "" [This indicates Smith's preceptor as Willard, and
gives an alternate spelling: Willard vs. Willared.]
