REPORT

Report of the Proceedings of the University for the year ended 31st December 1947

To His Excellency, Sir Winston Joseph Dugan, K.C.M.G., C.B., D.S.O.,

Governor of Victoria.

May it Please Your Excellency. I have the honour, in accordance with Section 43 of the University

Act, 1928, to submit to Your Excellency the following report of the Proceedings of the University during the past year.

1. Period Covered by the Report The last Annual Report covered a period of 17 months ended 31st

December, 1938, in order toi make the period coincide with the Academic Year. Formerly the report was for the year ending 31st July.

During the war years the annual statistics were published with the financial statements but no formal annual report was presented. This has now been remedied in a comprehensive report for the years 1939-1946 (inclusive).

The present report deals with the following year, 1947.

2. Increased Student Numbers In 1946, student numbers increased by 70 per cent over and above

the 1945 enrolments. This increase in the first post-war year added tremendous strains to almost every teaching department as well as to central services like the Library, the Union and Administration.

In 1947, the total enrolments reached 9,127, an all-time record. The corresponding numbers for some other selected universities are as follows:

Sydney Oxford Cambridge London Manchester Birmingham Leeds

The proportion of part-time students in Melbourne is higher than in most of the above universities, but, by any count, our numbers have

. now reached proportions gravely overtaxing present resources.

3. Staff The work of the staff in most trying circumstances has been most

praiseworthy. Real hardship has been endured through overcrowding, lack of sufficient text-books and apparatus, and the loss of time for research and reading: but through it all the scholar's ideal of dis­interested service has triumphed and standards have been maintained.

474 ANNUAL REPORT, 1947

4. Buildings The first of many extremely useful, though unsightly, temporary

buildings, mostly of the Army Hut variety, were erected this year. They provided dining and locker room space for the Union, housing for the new Visual Aids Centre, space for storage for the University Press, a separate building for Physical Education, and a home for the new Department of Psychology.

A permanent northern extension to the existing Arts Building was finally completed and occupied after long delays; a second Arts Block to the north-west took shape though none of it was finished during the year; an extra storey on part of the Engineering Building was completed and a composite building for Geology, Geography and the Melbourne office of the Universities Commission made some progress.

In view of the continuous shortages of many building materials and the higher priority necessarily given to housing, it was impossible to obtain permits for additional urgently required permanent buildings, such as the Library, Biochemistry and Metallurgy.

5. Council Mr. Justice Lowe was re-elected Chancellor and Dr. L. S. Latham

was elected Deputy Chancellor. Sir Walter Massy-Greene, in accord­ance with convention, retired aften two years' occupancy of the latter position.

Professor J. S. Turner replaced Professor Wadham, who did not seek re-election. Associate Professor H. Burton similarly replaced Associate Professor M. Belz, who resigned from the Council after twelve years as representative of the teaching staff other than the professors.

In December the undergraduates' representatives, Dr. G. Shaw and Mr. B. C. J. Meredith, were succeeded by Mr. N. A. Vickery and Mr. I. A. H. Turner.

Mr. Herbert Brookes, after fourteen years of service during which he served on several of the Council's Standing Committees and was Chairman of the Conservatorium Finance Committee, retired in Decem­ber. Council recorded its appreciation of his devoted interest.

The Hon. F. Field, lately Minister of Public Instruction, was succeeded by Mr. T. W. Mitchell, M.A., as a representative of the Legislative Assembly.

Mr. T. W. Andrews in December replaced Mr. H. J. Oke, who had been a representative of industrial interests for eight years.

Councillor W. J. Brens of the Melbourne City Council was co-opted in December.

Sir Alan Newton succeeded Dr. B. T. Zwar, who died on 16th January, 1947.

Mr. Burnell was awarded the Kernot Memorial Medal for 1946 for achievement in engineering, his main work being in hydraulics.

The Hon. T. D. Oldham was appointed Attorney-General in the State Cabinet.

The Council lost three members by death in 1947: Dr. B. T. Zwar on 16th January, Mr. J. E. Don on 6th April, and Mr. M. T. W. Eady on Sth December.

THE PROFESSORS 475

Dr. Zwar graduated in 1899. He was a member of the Faculty of Medicine for many years, taught the subject of Surgery, was at one time President of the University Association and a member of the University Council since 1935, holding the office of Deputy Chancellor in 1943-44. His greatest memorial is the Royal Melbourne Hospital, to the building of which he brought years of idealistic service.

Mr. Don was a member of Council since 1938. He was also Public Trustee and a member of the University Finance Committee, where his legal experience was of considerable benefit.

Mr. Eady served the Council since 1942 and was also a member of the Finance Committee. His long business experience and knowledge were always at the disposal of the University.

Their places were taken by Sir Alan Newton, Mr. Brake and Commander Robinson.

6. The Vice-Chanccllor

In the latter half of the year the Vice-Chancellor, Mr. Medley, attended, at the invitation of the Nuffield Foundation, a conference of United Kingdom and Canadian Vice-Chancellors at Oxford and also visited the eastern states of U.S.A. His experience has been most valuable in helping this University to see its problems in the perspective of other universities in Britain and America.

During his absence, the Chairman of the Professorial Board, Pro­fessor Paton, carried out the duties of Acting.Vice-Chancellor.

7. The Professors

Professor Agar's retirement from the Chair of Zoology became effective at the end of 1947, after 28 years of devoted and distinguished service in that position and in the affairs of the University in general. Professor Agar succeeded Sir Baldwin Spencer and most ably carried on the work already pioneered. His main work developed the new branches of Biology, Cytology and Genetics, culminating in a philo­sophical treatment in his book, A Contribution to the Theory of the Living Organism. Professor Agar took his full share of administration, having been President of the Professorial Board in 1931-4 and Dean of the Faculty of Science for periods totalling eleven years. On his retire­ment the Council conferred upon him the title of Emeritus Professor.

Three recently created chairs were filled by the appointments of Mr. J. T. Burke, O.B.E., M.A. (London and Yale) to the Herald Chair of Fine Arts, Mr. B. B. Lewis, B.Arch. (Melbourne), M.A. (Arch.) (Liverpool), F.R.I.B.A., to the Age Chair of Architecture, and Dr. J. A. L. Matheson, M.B.E., M.Sc. (Manchester), Ph.D. (Birming­ham), to the Chair of Civil Engineering.

Dr. W. G. Friedmann, LL.D. (Berlin and London) succeeded Professor Bailey, who had accepted appointment as Solicitor-General to the Commonwealth of Australia, in the Chair of Public Law.

Mr. R. R. Blackwood took up duty as Professor of Mechanical Engineering but resigned at the end of 1947 to become General Manager of the Dunlop Rubber Co. Ltd.

476 ANNUAL REPORT, 1947

Professor Burnet, Professor of Experimental Medicine, won the Royal Medal, an award in Physics and Chemistry dating from the time of George III. This is the first time an Australian has achieved this distinction.

8. Administration Mr. Foster resigned his office as Registrar and flew to London at

the end of January to assume the secretaryship of the Universities Bureau of the British Empire. He was succeeded as Registrar by Mr. F . H. Johnston, who had been on the Administrative Staff for 21 years, during the last 19 of which he had been Accountant.

Mr. Temby, with 28 years of University service, became Account­ant, and Mr. Williams, Assistant Registrar, and Mr. Brown, Academic Secretary, had their new positions confirmed by amendments to the: appropriate statute.

9. Academic Staff: Retirements Associate Professor Lodewyckx retired from the position of Head

of the Department of Germanic Languages at the beginning of 1947, a position he had held since 1915. His scholarly work in German, Dutch and Icelandic has been appreciated by generations of students, and his patience and kindliness have been at the disposal of all. who sought his help. The teaching of Dutch, instituted in 1942, apart from his work in German, remains as a tribute to his extraordinary industry and initiative in the study of languages.

Mr. J. S. Gawler retired from the position of Dean of the Faculty of Architecture, which he had held since 1933, on the appointment of Professor Lewis early in 1947. Mr. Gawler had taught in, the School of Architecture and taken a leading part in its administration since 1914. Although his work was done in a part-time capacity many members of his profession owe him a great debt of gratitude.

The retirement of Mr. H. W. Allen, formerly Vice-Master of Ormond College, from the Recreation Grounds Committee after 41 years of service, marked the passing of another University stalwart whose interest in amateur sport influenced thousands of students not only during, but long after, their undergraduate days.

10. Members of Staff on Leave Overseas in 1947 The following members of staff were away on leave during the

year: Associate Professor Belz spent six months in the United States,

during which he attended a series of international conferences on statis­tics and mathematical economics.

Mrs. K. Fitzpatrick spent six months at the Scott Polar Research Institute at Cambridge to study the diary and private papers of Lady Franklin, wife of the explorer Sir John Franklin, an early Governor ol Tasmania. Mrs. Fitzpatrick also visited northern Italy and southern France.

Professor Heinze visited Canada as guest conductor of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and had the honorary degree of LL.D. con­ferred on him by the University of British Columbia.

MILDURA BRANCH 47/

Mr. G. F . James, Manager of the University Press, spent six months in England in connection with a trade agreement with the Cambridge Press.

Mr. P . G. Law and Dr. F . Loeivc were members of the Australian Antarctic Research Expedition.

Professor Martin made a three months' tour of physical laboratories in the United Kingdom in connection with his duties as a member of the Advisory Defence Committee established by the Commonwealth Government.

Mr. C. E. Palmer was appointed visiting Associate Professor at the University of California.

Mr. W. A. Rawlinson visited University College Hospital, London, to continue research work on porphyrin biochemistry in collaboration with Professor C. Rimington, on a Travelling Fellowship offered by the Trustees of the Wellcome Research Foundation.

Professor Rubbo attended the fourth International Congress of Microbiology at Copenhagen, where he presented a paper on the mode of action of oxine drugs. He also visited England and the U.S.A. to* study teaching and research methods.

Mr. Leigh Scott inspected overseas libraries in Britain and U.S.A. Professor Wright paid a short visit to England on business con­

nected with the Australian National University.

11. Obituary The deaths of three members of Council have been noted above. Two deaths occurred among the staff, those of Associate Professor

F. A. Singleton in April and Mr. F. A. L. Callil in September. Professor Singleton lectured in Agricultural Geology since 1920.

His main work was in Tertiary Stratigraphy and Palaeontology, and his book on Tertiary Geology of Australia is a recognized authority.

Mr. Callil was part-time lecturer in French and a member of the Victorian Bar for many years.

12. Adult Education In July, 1947, the work of the Council of Adult Education, sup­

ported by a Government grant of £25,000, largely took the place of the University Extension Board, whose work in this field dated from 1891. Mr. C. R. Badger, who reorganized the Board's activities after taking up duty as Director in 1939, became the first Director of Adult Education, with Mr. T. H. Coates and Miss N. Strahan, also of this* University, as his chief assistants.

The Board has been replaced within the University by a Com­mittee, with Professor Wadham as chairman and Mr. G. H. Vasey as part-time secretary. A feature of its work has been the arrangement of a series of lectures at the University, and to some extent in the country, for matriculation candidates. In addition lectures by visiting professors and others were arranged.

13. Mildura Branch A new departure in this University was made in the establishment

of the Mildura Branch which was officially opened on 9th April. The

Page 6: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

478 ANNUAL REPORT, 1947

branch, which was originally an R.A.A.F. camp, was extended and remodelled in close liaison with the State Govemment at a cost of about £300,000. First year courses in Medicine, Dental Science, Engineering and Architecture were transferred from Melboume and 549 students .entered into residence. Examination results at the end of 1947 were good and the experiment of relieving pressure in Melbourne, particularly in Physics and Chemistry, by opening a country branch has proved highly successful. Dr. J. S. Rogers, as Warden, proved himself to be an excellent administrator both in supervising the building programme and in the educational and residential work of the year. The Mildura staff put up with many disabilities, in the first term particularly, but .entered into the job with the enthusiasm of pioneers.

14. University Publications The Calendar has recently appeared every second year instead of

annually. A good deal of matter (e.g.. Details of Subjects) has also appeared in Faculty Handbooks. The 1948 Calendar is planned to omit •such duplicated material and to increase the usefulness of the Calendar by printing all regulations, especially those relating to trusts, in full. A small section of the office now devotes its time to publishing the Gazette, the Calendar and the Faculty Handbooks.

15. Financial Position The University's finances have become more complicated by the

part played by the Commonwealth Govemment Universities Com­mission and the functioning of the Mildura Branch.

Under the Rehabilitation Scheme, the Commonwealth Government has undertaken to provide equipment worth -£101,000, buildings costing about £150,000, and revenue sufficient to meet the annual cost of teach­ing ex-servicemen, based on fees and a pound for pound subsidy in addition, and further subsidies if a review of accounts warrants them. For 1947 the Commonwealth contributed as follows:

Students' Fees (C.R.T.S.) . . . . £111,282 Subsidy on Fees 84,880 Review Subsidy 34.Q0O (paid in 1948 after

the review) This total of £230,162 was 31 per cent of the University's income. The Mildura experiment proved more costly than was estimated.

The State Govemment provided £265,000 for capital expenses and the University added £20,000. Running costs for 1947 had to be met by the University as the first appropriation, owing to a change of Govern­ment, was not made until December. The result was to overdraw the University's bank account considerably. The amount required from Govemment sources for running costs was £45,000.

The Commonwealth and State Governments have both supported the University generously and have shown a real appreciation of its needs in a time of rapid expansion; but the machinery in operation for increasing grants proved somewhat unwieldy and a good deal of finan­cial anxiety was experienced by the Finance Committee before the procedure was improved and grants became available.

TRINITY COLLEGE 479

When outstanding receipts from the two Governments were brought into account the General Fund and the Mildura Fund at the end of 1947 each showed a deficit of £15,000. Later payments through the Universities Commission more than paid off these deficits, leaving a small surplus as the final result of the year's operations.

16. Graduation Ceremonials In view of the large number of graduations in April, viz. 413, it

was decided to hold two ceremonials at Commencement. At the second, in the absence of the Chancellor and the Deputy Chancellor, the Vice-Chancellor conferred degrees for the first time. On the occasion of the official opening, degrees were also conferred in Mildura on members of staff attached to the branch who had recently completed courses.

17. Medical School An important development in teaching in the clinical years of the

course was made by the appointment of clinical supervisors in the three main teaching hospitals. Beginning with three appointments in June, the Council later added three more and provided lor a seventh appointment to the Women's and Children's Hospitals jointly.

18. Standing Resolutions of Council and Convocation As the last revision of the Council's Standing Resolutions was made

in 1890, it was decided to revise and publish them again in pamphlet form with the Standing Orders of Convocation. This was completed during the year.

19. Distinguished Visitors Sir Gordon Gordon-Taylor, the eminent British surgeon, while in

Melbourne for the annual meeting of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons at which he delivered the Syme Oration, had the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws conferred upon him.

Dr. Wilmarth Lewis, a Trustee of Yale University and world famous authority on Horace Walpole, gave three lectures on Walpole's life and work and on Libraries. Later the Vice-Chancellor sent an oil painting by Jeff Smart, "The Williamstown Rifle Butts," to Yale in commemoration of the visit.

Professor R. W. Gerard of the Chair of Physiology, Chicago, delivered two public lectures of great interest in third term.

Professor Avery Craven, Professor of History at Chicago and visiting Professor of American History in Sydney, addressed the Staff Association in November.

20. Trinity College The senior University College, Trinity, celebrated its seventy-fifth

anniversary in June. The celebrations included a Thanksgiving Service in St. Paul's Cathedral, attended by the Chancellor and members of the Council and staff. Dr. Alexander Leeper (1876-1918) and Dr. J. C. V. Behan (1918-1946) as Wardens were chiefly responsible for the college's growth and prestige. The college has grown from six students in 1872 to 116 resident men, 66 resident women (Janet Clarke Hall), and 100 non-residents. The present Warden is Mr. R. W. T. Cowan.

Page 8: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

480 ANNUAL REPORT, 1947

21. Brahms Festival The University, in November and December, presented a most

comprehensive series of eight recitals by Brahms, including the four symphonies, two pianoforte concertos, the "German Requiem" and selections from the chamber music and lieder. The Archbishop, Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's made the Cathedral available and Professor Heinze as conductor had the services of the Melboume Symphony Orchestra, the Royal Melboume Philharmonic Society, the Queensland String Quartette and soloists including Hepzibah Menuhin. The con­certs were free to the public and were financed from the Sidney Myer and Melboume Symphony Orchestra Trust Funds.

22. Staff Superannuation The Council agreed to give new members of the academic staff,

appointed as from 1st January, 1947, or later, superannuation con­ditions similar to those of the Federated Superannuation System for Universities in Britain (F.S.S.U.). Some measure of agreement was reached with the other Australian universities so that some degree of •transferability will now exist in regard to common superannuation terms for those moving from Britain to Australia, or within Australia, in university or similar positions.

A fund now amounting to £21,292 no longer required for Pro­fessors' retiring allowances has also been set aside to meet cases of financial hardship suffered by members of staff.

23. Benefactions The following gifts and bequests are acknowledged with gratitude:

W. L. Baillieu Trust—part of total benefaction of £100,000 for a new Library . . . . . . . . . . . . £1,384

REPORT

Report of the Proceedings of the University for the year ended Slst December 1948

To His Excellency, Lieut.-Gen. The Hon. Sir Edmund Herring, K.B.E., D.S.O.,

M.C, E.D., M.A., B.C.L., K.C, Lieutenant-Governor of Victoria.

May it Please Your Excellency. I have the honour, in accordance with Section 43 of the University

Act 1928, to submit to Your Excellency the following report of the Proceedings of the University during 1948.

1. Student Numbers Numbers of students reached 9,497 as compared with 9,127 in

1947. All faculties referred again in their annual reports to severe congestion. A useful analysis of pre-university examination results was made, which indicated that in 1949 numbers would probably decline by, 10 per cent-lS per cent as ex-service students completed their courses:' for the same reason the trough might be as low as 6,000 by about 1951, but, with an increasing demand by civilians for University education and with greater financial assistance than before the war available from governmental sources, the numbers were estimated to reach about 8,000 by 1960. This suggests that the present record number of 9,500 is not merely a post-war phenomenon. Within a decade the University must again face a similar figure (unless war intervenes), and preparations for the permanent provision of adequate buildings, equipment and staff must soon be initiated.

The only restriction on entrance to University courses in 1948 were in First Year Medicine as regards extra Victorians and in Second Year Medicine where a quota of 220 was fixed. Of those who passed in First Year Medicine at Mildura, 48 were deferred admission for a year. This system of deferment will again apply in 1949 owing -to accommodation difficulties.

2. Staff Again a tribute should be paid to the work of the staff, academic,

administrative and technical. The pay-roll includes 1,344 names—1,019 full-time and 325 part-time members of staff. The volume and com­plexity of the work were in no wise reduced, but unremitting zeal was displayed wherever the pressure was greatest.

3. Buildings More Army huts appeared during the year, notably for Archi­

tecture, at the cost of the fine lawns south of Wilson Hall. A second temporary hut for the Central Office was built beyond the Accounts Building, north of Wilson Hall.

481

Page 10: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

482 ANNUAL REPORT, 1948

The two permanent buildings, both in course of construction for about two years, the second Arts Block and the Geology-Geography extensions, almost reached completion and a permit was obtained for bricks to face the present unsightly exterior of this much-needed Arts Building.

Three fires occurred during the year—in the General Workshop, the Zoology Building and in a temporary Physics annexe, which was totally destroyed. Much valuable cosmic ray research work was nullified by the last-named. Heads of departments were instructed to insist on greater precautions by staff and students, and sets of rules were issued. Fire insurances were thoroughly overhauled and increased.

4. Finances The mounting costs of maintaining satisfactory University standards

and the prospect of a recession in Commonwealth Govemment grants have caused the Finance Committee and the Council much concern, but the State Govemment, after making a special grant in June to cover an existing deficit in Melbourne and Mildura of £55,000, provided £300,000 for the financial year of 1948-49, of which £75,000 applied to the Mildura Branch. The corresponding total grant in 1939-40 was £76,800, and in 1947-48 £239,700.

The State Government's sympathetic and generous attitude to the University has, for the time being, relieved our fears, but the large increase in grants has done little more than enable us to continue on the war-time basis of improvisation and much costly developmental work remains to be done.

5. Council The Hon. Sir Charles Lowe was re-elected Chancellor in March

and entered upon his eighth year in that office. Dr. L. S. Latham was re-elected Deputy Chancellor. The Council expressed to the Chancellor its felicitations on the

knighthood bestowed on him by His Majesty the King in January, and in June the Vice-Chancellor, Sir John Medley, was the recipient of the Council's congratulations on the occasion of a similar honour.

Associate Professor Burton resigned from the Council on his appointment as Principal of the Canberra University College at the end of 1948. He was succeeded as representative of the teaching staff (other than the professors) by Mr. J. F. Cairns, Lecturer in Economic History.

Professor Gibson resigned before leaving Australia for the Uni­versities Conference at Oxford in July and was replaced by Professor Chisholm.

Sir Alan Newton was granted leave of absence on account of illness towards the end of the year. Sir Alan's work as Honorary Director of Clinical Studies in the Faculty of Medicine was of outstanding value in 1948.

6. The Vice-Chancellor Sir John Medley completed ten years as Vice-Chancellor in June.

Soon afterwards he attended the Oxford Conference and later visited Holland and Germany.

Page 11: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

RESIGNATIONS 483

Professor Paton, as on the previous occasion of the Vice-Chancel­lor's absence on leave, was appointed Acting Vice-Chancellor.

7. The Professors Emeritus Professor W. E. Agar had the distinction of C.B.E.

bestowed on him by His Majesty the King. Professor B. Higgins of McGill University, Montreal, was ap­

pointed to the Ritchie Chair of Economics and arrived here in second term.

On the resignation of Mr. Partridge to occupy the Chair of Gov­ernment and Public Administration in Sydney, Professor Friedmann became Acting Head of the Department of Political Science.

Professor Martin was appointed Defence Scientific Adviser and Chairman of the Defence Research and Development Policy Committee, of which Professor Hartung and Professor Burnet are also members.

Professor Crawford spent the second term on leave and divided his time between writing a book while at St. George's College in* the University of Western Australia and visiting the Kimberleys to clear up problems of the ill-fated 1864-5 settlement there.

Dr. O. W. Tiegs was appointed to the Chair of Zoology in suc­cession to Professor Agar.

Mr. E. J. C. Rennie was appointed Acting Professor of Mechanical Engineering on the resignation of Professor Blackwood.

Mr. C. E. Moorhouse, lately Senior Lecturer in Charge, was appointed the first occupant of the Chair of Electrical Engineering in May.

Following on the resignation of Acting Professor Hayes as Head of the Obstetrics Department, Dr. J. W. Johnstone was appointed Acting Professor.

8. Associate Professorships After receiving reports from specially appointed committees, the

Council promoted the following Senior Lecturers to Associate Pro­fessorships :

Mrs. K. Fitzpatrick History Mr. E. J. C. Rennie Mechanical Engineering Dr. K. F. Russell Anatomy Dr. C. M. Tattam . . . . . . Geology.

In all four cases overseas referees spoke most highly of the achieve­ments of the new Associate Professors.

9. Resignations Dr. A. C Taylor, for ten years a lecturer in the French Depart­

ment, was appointed to the Chair of French in Birkbeck College in the University of London and left Melbourne at the end of the year to take up his new appointment.

Dr. J. W. H. Lugg, Senior Lecturer in Plant Biochemistry, resigned in June following his appointment to the Chair of Biochemistry at King Edward VII College of Medicine, Singapore.

Page 12: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

484 ANNUAL REPORT, 1948

Mr. A. L. G. McDonald, Assistant Librarian, resigned in July in order to assume the post of Librarian to the Australian National Uni­versity. He was succeeded by Mr. K. A. Lodewyckx of the Public Library.

Dr. N. H. MacKenzie, Lecturer in English, resigned in order to accept appointment as Senior Lecturer at University College, Natal.

Mr. P. H. Partridge, Senior Lecturer in charge of Political Science, resigned in August to succeed Professor Bland in the Chair of Govem­ment and Public Administration in Sydney.

Associate Professor Burton, for sixteen years a Senior Lecturer and then Associate Professor of Economic History, resigned at the end of 1948 to take up his new appointment as Principal and Professor of Economic History at the Canberra University College.

Page 15: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

MILDURA BRANCH 487

The Vice-Chancellor and Mr. Darling both received the honorary degree of D.C.L. at Oxford, and Professor Gibson the degree of Litt.D. at Cambridge.

On his return, the Vice-Chancellor made the following points: (a) The reciprocal travelling plan for young university teachers in

Britain and the Dominions is a good beginning and merits support.

(b) Common superannuation benefits throughout the British Com­monwealth, as in the F.S.S.U. scheme adopted in Melbourne, are essential.

(c) The Universities Bureau (now the Association of Universities of the British Commonwealth), is becoming a live organization, undertaking work on an Empire scale which we must aid more fully.

(d) More frequent conferences are being planned, and an invitation to hold the next general conference in Melbourne in our cen­tenary year, 1953, was given by the Vice-Chancellor.

(e) Our own Australian Vice-Chancellors' Committee must become more active and effective.

(f) Melbourne's reputation is deservedly high abroad.

16. Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The new Ph.D. courses have been in operation for three years and

have proved their value in stimulating research beyond the stage of a Master's degree. The first graduates, in April, were Miss Erica Wolff, M.A., and Mr. R. H. Myers, M.Sc.

17. Extension of Courses Legislation was passed extending the Honours Course in Arts from

three years to four as from the beginning of 1950. It is intended that the extra year of study should be used mainly for a consolidation of the present courses, with only a small amount of additional work. This extension follows-the precedent set by the University of Sydney and other universities abroad, where it is recognized that three years is too short a period for seriously-planned honours work.

A proposal to extend the pass Science Course to four years was passed by the Faculty of Science after long deliberation, but the con­sequent demands for extra staff and buildings have made the extension impracticable.

18. Canberra University College Degrees of this University won by students at the above College

were formerly conferred in absentia. There was a much appreciated departure from this practice when the Chancellor, accompanied by the Vice-Chancellor and other members of staff, visited Canberra in April and conferred degrees in person in the Albert Hall.

19. Mildura Branch The number of students at the Branch dropped from 560 in 1947

to 450 in 1948. This reduction was caused by the decline in ex-service enrolments and the transfer of first year Architecture to Melbourne,

Page 16: REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the

488 ANNUAL REPORT, 1948 leaving at Mildura the first year courses in Medicine, Dental Science and Engineering. A small number of first year Science students was also accommodated at the Branch.

The Warden, Dr. J. S. Rogers, and Mrs. Rogers left Mildura en route for the United States at the end of third term for a period of five months, during which an investigation of residential colleges would be, made.

The teaching facilities and amenities were all much better than in the first year of the Branch's life and good work by both staff and students resulted from these improvements.

20. Benefactions The following gifts and bequests were received, or promised, during

1948: £30,000 from an anonymous benefactor to provide for a Vice-

Director of the Conservatorium of Music. £2,220 from the estate of the late Dr. Francis Haley for medical

-research. £2,702 from the estate of the late Rupert G. Renton for the purpose

of rendering assistance to needy students. £1,139 from W. L. Baillieu Trust (new Library). £1,000 from the estate of Dr. T. T. Dick. £6,948 from the estate of J. N. Peters, £1,005 from the estate of Mrs. J. A. Thomson. £5,625 from Mr. A. Sims (Arthur Sims Trustee Scholarship

Fund). £1,341 from the Glover Fund. £1,200 from Mr. L. Rubinstein for Physiology research, £1,250 from eleven firms for Anthropology. £1,000 (Inscribed Stock) transfer to the University with the

responsibility for the administration of the Halford Oration, at the request of the donors.

£1,000 Commonwealth Treasury Bonds from Mr. Charles Darley Bume for Violin Scholarship.
