Summary: Preliminary results from E-802 (Si-beam) and B-866 (Au-beam) are presented for central collisions. Meson production ([pi]'s and K's) in heavy ion collisions are discussed from light systems (A = 55) to heavy systems (A = 394). Comparisons with predictions of the cascade code ARC are carried out. The balance of energy and momentum is considered for the Au+Au data.
