Prior toand during the 1961 Western Joint Computer Conference, several people in the Joint Users Groups had expressed interest in defining a "smalgol" language.This is to be an ALGOL language for use with compilers on relatively small size computers.A preliminary report resulted.At the ACM National Conference four months later, after considering several counter proposals, a final version was agreed upon by a subcommittee.The recommendations of the Subcommittee for a standard subset of ALGO L 60 for use on small computers is presented here.
