Sumario:Early success with the CERN 28 GeV proton synchrotron (PS) prompted three questions about the future. Which areas of high energy particle physics would offer the best chance of progress, and with which accelerators? Which detectors would be needed? What experiments would be most likely to succeed? About 1963 it was suggested that the PS be extended with intersecting storage rings (ISR), and a 300 GeV SPS be built. By 1971 the ISR was ready for experiments, and the SPS proposal approved. At the present time the SPS programme comprises 28 experiments in the West Hall. (0 refs).
