REPORT OE THE PROCEEDINGS OF THB UNIVERSITY FROM 31ST " JULY, 1914, to 31ST JULY, 1915. To His EXCELLENCY, THE LIOK. SIR ARTHUR LTUU'H STANLEY, K.O.M.G-., GOVERNOR OF VICTORIA. MAI- IT PLEASE YOUR EXCELLENCY, I have the honour, iu accordance with Section 27 of the University Act 1890, to submit to yom- Excellency the following report of the proceedings of the Univer sity during the past year: — 1.—THE WAR. During the whole of the past year the Empire has been engaged in the Great War, and the University has felt the effects in much the same manner as the com munity generally. At the outbreak a fair number of students volunteered, a- short special regulation was passer] authorising special arrangements and. adjust ments of courses in the cases of students engaged in military duties, and a University Patriotic Fund . was established. In other respects the war was not at first greatly felt; but as the months have passed, and the increasing gravity of the position has been more and more realised, both members of the staff and the students have been led to consider what further they could do. Some of the resu'lts are set out in the following paragraphs: — Over 800 members of the University have gone over sea on military service. Among these arc 47 mem bers of the teaching staff, over 300 graduates and licentiates, about 160 past students, and about 300 undergraduates. Eight of the attendants have enlisted. Among the members of the Council, Brigadier-General Monash, Lieut.-Colonel J. W. Barrett and Lieut.-Colonel 652 ANNUAL* REPORT, 19141916. G. A. Syme are away on active service. Among the senior lecturers are Colonel F. D. Bird, Lecturer in Surgery; Lieut.-Colonel H. C. Maudsley, Lecturer in Medicine; Lieut.-Colonel J. W. Springthorpe, Lecturer in Therapeutics, and Dr. A. C. H. Rothera, Lecturer in Bio chemistry. Among the past students are Brigadier-General McCay and Lieut-Colonel McNicoll, D.S.O. Considerably over two hundred medical practitioners trained in the Medical School of the University are serving at the Front. The casualties among the members of the Univer sity include about thirty killed and about fifty wounded. Among the killed, mention must be made of Captain G. C. M. Mathison, Sub-Director of Pathology at tho Melbourne Hospital, Captain S. J. Campbell, formerly Stewart Lecturer ou Pathology, and Captain E. F. R. Bage, B.C.E, who was a member of Sir Douglas Mawson's Austra lasian Antarctic Expedition. In addition, a very large number of teachers, graduates and undergraduates, are performing military service within the Commonwealth. Professors Masson, Osborne and Laby, with the assist ance ot members of their staffs, have collaborated in the design of a, respirator for use by troops exposed to the noxious gases employed by the Germans. They have designed and produced a respirator which has been ap proved by the Defence Department, and has been for warded to the War Office. The Defence Department has placed an order for a large number of respirators according to this design. Professors Masson, Lyle and Payne, Mr. A. J. Higgin and Mr. W. N. Kernot, have been devoting a consider able amount of time to the work of the Munitions Com mittee. Professor Lyle, whose time was free, has been made a member of the Federal Munitions' Committee; the others named have been made consulting members. In addition, the Defence Department has asked for Pro fessor Payne's services for several months in order that he may form one of a delegation of experts to visit India to gather data for the establishment of an arsenal in Australia. Professor Herry and Dr. A. C. D. Rivett have been appointed to the offices of Registrar and Assistant Registrar respectively at the Base Hospital for A ustralian Wounded, St. Kilda Koad. ANNUAL REPORT, 1914-1915.
