Professor Sir John Eccles, Nobel Laureate • Dr. D. C. Williams reading the citation for Dr. Wilder G. Penfield who received an in Physiology and Medicine and one of honorary Doctor of Science degree. the greatest living neurobiologists and philosophers of the nervous system, will deliver the first annual Stevenson Lec- ture on Thursday, October 5, at 4:00 p.m. in Lecture Room "A" in the new Univer- sity Hospital. The lecture series was es- tablished by the Faculty of Medicine to honor the memory of the late Professor J.A.F. Stevenson, Head of the Physio- logy Department from 1951 to 1970 and Dean of Graduate Studies at the time of his death in July of last year.

Professor Eccles, as he prefers to be ad- dressed, will speak on "The Role of the Brain in Movement and Skill". As a lec- turer, he is particularly noted for his • vitality and his ability to capture the audience's attention as to the new brain- function discoveries. His addresses have always had great appeal both to physio- logists and non-specialists alike.
