Abstract
THE sixty–seventh annual general meeting of the Physical Society was held on July 25 in the lecture theatre of the Science Museum, with Prof. Allan Ferguson in the chair. The reports of the Council and of the treasurer were adopted and the following officers for 1941–42 elected. President: Dr. C. G. Darwin; Hon. Treasurer: Dr. C. C. Paterson; Hon. Secretary (Business): Dr. W. Jevons: Hon. Secretary (Papers): Mr. J. H. Awbery; Hon. Librarian: Dr. L. C. Martin; New Members of Council: Prof. E. N. da C. Andrade and Dr. H. Shaw. Prof. Ferguson will undertake the duty of acting–president until Dr. Darwin is able to take office. The Council has to record a very successful year's work in difficult circumstances. Despite exceptionally heavy losses by death, the membership of the Society is scarcely affected, standing at 1,070 members at the end of 1940, as compared with 1,084 members twelve months earlier.
