Extract

The Council have to report with regret the deaths of Captain V. Lord, a member of the Association's staff for 28 years and well known to many workers at the laboratory as skipper of S.S. ‘Salpa’; and of Cdr. C. A. Hoodless, D.S.C., R.N.R. who was Master of R.V. ‘Sabella’ from 1948 to 1953 when he was appointed Master of the Association's new research vessel ‘Sarsia’. Cdr. Hoodless was an able and skilful seaman and did much for marine science. His burial took place at sea from R.V. ‘Sarsia’ on 16 March 1964.

The Council record with great pleasure the award of the 1963 Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine to Prof. A. L. Hodgkin, F.R.S., and Prof. A. F. Huxley, F.R.S. Both have been visiting research workers at the Plymouth laboratory and Prof. Hodgkin has served many times on the Council of the Association.

The Council and Officers

During the year Major E. G. Christie-Miller resigned from his position as a Representative Governor on the Council of the Association since 1941. Major Christie-Miller gave devoted service to the Association as Honorary Treasurer from 1941 to 1956, and had been a Vice-President since 1951.
