Report of the Council for 1935

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 May 2009

Extract

Four meetings of the Council have been held during the year in the Rooms of the Royal Society, London. The average attendance was fourteen. The thanks of the Association are due to the President and Council of the Royal Society for allowing their rooms to be used. A Committee of the Council consisting of ten members and presided over by the Chairman of Council, Prof. E. W. MacBride, F.R.S., visited and inspected the Plymouth Laboratory on April 6th.

The Council has to record with regret the death of Mr. T. H. Riches, who was a member of Council from 1920 to 1926 and had since 1889 taken a great interest in the Plymouth Laboratory, where he carried out his own research work from that date until 1896. He became a Founder of the Association in 1900 and for the rest of his life gave most valuable help in raising money for special funds for enlarging the Laboratory buildings and similar purposes, in addition to making substantial contributions to them himself.

The Plymouth Laboratory.Repairs and painting necessary to maintain the Laboratory buildings and fittings in good condition have been carried out. It was found necessary to renew part of the electric light wiring in the main building, and to replace the aerial cable leading to the Easter House. The ejector previously used for pumping water from the sea into the main reservoirs has been replaced by a centrifugal pump supplied by the Pulsometer Company and driven by an electric motor.
