ANNUAL MEETING, NOVEMBER 4-6, 1965 Agnes Creagh, Secretary

The Geological Society of America, the Paleontological Society, the Mineralogical Society of America, the Society of Economic Geologists, the Geochemical Society, and the National Association of Geology Teachers held a very successful meeting in Kansas City, Missouri, on November 4-6, as guests of five area organizations: the University of Kansas, the Kansas Geological Survey, the Kansas State University, The University of Missouri at Columbia, and The University of Missouri at Kansas City. The Society is grateful to the Chairman of the Local Committee, Frank C. Foley, and to his very able committees whose efforts resulted in a meeting in which nearly 2400 persons participated. The full Local Committee is as follows:

General Chairman: FRANK C. FOLEY General Co-Chairmen: A. G. UNKLESBAY PAUL L. HILPMAN Vice-Chairman: J. R. CHELIKOWSKY Advisor: RAYMOND C. MOORE Treasurer: HENRY V. BECK Chairman of the Technical Program: RAYMOND E. PECK Exhibits: Louis F. DELLWIG Field Trips: DANIEL F. MERRIAM and GARY F. STEWART; JOHN W. KOENIG and JAMES H. WILLIAMS 'Reservations: WILLIAM W.

On Thursday evening, November 4, Wilmot H. Bradley, outgoing President of The Geological Society of America, delivered his address entitled Tropical lakes, copropel, and oil shale. Following the address the customary Smoker provided an evening of general sociability. On Friday morning, November 5, following the Business Session of The Geologi- cal Society of America, a symposium entitled Aspects of Extraterrestrial Geology was presented. Because of the importance of the symposium no other programs were scheduled at this time so that all attending the meeting could be present. E. C. T. Chao, Bruce C. Murray, Harold Masursky, Eugene Shoemaker, and Robert P. Sharp presented papers covering the subject from several viewpoints. The Annual Dinner was held on Friday evening. As a very able toastmaster, J. Hoover Mackin presented Philip B. King as the Penrose Medalist for 1965, and Frank Press presented Walter H. Munk as the 1965 recipient of the Arthur L. Day Medal. Also at the Annual Dinner, President Bradley announced that Dr. Raymond C. Moore and Mrs. Moore have made arrangements in their wills for the Raymond C. and Lilian B. Moore Fund, designed particularly to assure continuation of the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology by providing funds for revisions and supple- ments to this very important series in paleontology, but with flexibility to allow support of other paleontological projects judged by the Council of the Society to be of particular merit. The profession owes Doctor Moore much for the initiative and energy he has already exhibited in the direction of the Treatise series, and Presi- dent Bradley expressed the gratitude of the Society for this additional evidence of devotion to the science and to this all-important series of publications. Other awards and honors received at the meeting include the following: Gerald M. Richmond received the Kirk Bryan Award at the Luncheon of the Geomorphology Division for his paper entitled Quaternary Stratigraphy of the La Sal Mountains, Utah (U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 324, 1962); Robert L. Heller received the Neil Miner Award at the Luncheon of the National Association of Geology Teachers; Peter J. Wyllie received the Mineralogical Society of America Award; and Adolf Pabst was the recipient of the Roebling Medal of the Mineralogi- cal Society of America. Jdzsef Toth was the first recipient of the O. E. Meinzer Award, recently estab- lished by the Hydrogeology Division. In presenting the award, S. W. Lohman, Chairman of the Division, described the establishment of the award as follows:

"Oscar Edward Meinzer, generally considered the father of modern ground-water hydrology, died in his sleep in Washington on June 14, 1948, at the age of 71—only about 18 months after his retirement from 39J^ years of distinguished service with the U. S. Geological Survey. For the last 34 of these years he was Geologist in Charge of the Division of Ground Water. Fortunate indeed were those of us who received our early training from this wise and kindly gentleman. "His Occurrence of ground water in the United States, with a discussion of principles, known to most of us simply as Water-Supply Paper 489, which has served so long as a handbook on ground water, was accepted as a. dissertation by the University of Chicago, which in 1922 granted him the degree of Doctor of Philosophy magna cum laude. This was but one of some 110 reports and articles authored by O. E. Meinzer, as he always signed his name. Despite his degrees and many honors, he was simply 'Mr. Meinzer' to all us boys.

"Mr. Meinzer's death came as a great shock and without warning, for he was so keenly alert and active; indeed, he was writing a two-volume text on ground water, and had just put down his pencil to take his customary afternoon nap—he never awakened from that nap. "For several years nothing was done to commemorate this great man. Then during the Cin- cinnati and Houston meetings of the Hydrogeology Division in 1961 and 1962 several members suggested that some type of award should be given at each annual meeting for the outstanding paper in Hydrogeology, and some suggested that we name it the 'O. E. Meinzer Award.' Phil LaMoreaux, 1963 Chairman, finally decided to do something about it. A poll of the membership helped decide the type of award to be given—a suitably inscribed certificate—and in 1963 Phil LaMoreaux assigned me (then Second Vice-Chairman) to work up the rules, which I patterned somewhat after those for the Kirk Bryan Award of the Geomorphology Division. Phil LaMoreaux and his staff artist at Tuscaloosa made preliminary sketches of a proposed certificate and the final one was drawn in Denver by John R. Stacy of the Survey's Branch of Technical Illustrations, with my help in planning the background. "The paper selected for the first O. E. Meinzer Award, entitled A theoretical analysis of ground-water flow in small drainage basins, was published in 1963 in the Journal of Geophysical Research, v. 68, no. 16, p. 4795-4812. Dr. Toth applied methods of Hubbert and others in a wholly theoretical manner to different types of idealized stream basins and demonstrated, among other things, the effects of minor topographic irregularities on the natural ground-water movement. Perhaps the most important contributions are the well-stated consequences of the theoretical applications, among which is the conclusion that only a small part of the total amount of water occupying a basin may participate in the hydrologic cycle, and that methods by some earlier workers in using base-flow data for computation of basin-wide characteristics may be misleading or even erroneous."

Business Session The Business Session of the Annual Meeting of The Geological Society of America was called to order in the Municipal Auditorium at 8:15 on Friday morning, Novem- ber 5. President Wilmot H. Bradley was Chairman of the meeting, and the Secretary was in attendance. The Chairman called the session to order and stated that the Tellers and Inspectors of Election, John Rouse, William Thurston, and Allen Bassett, had executed and filed their oath. In reporting for the Tellers, John T. Rouse, Head Teller, stated that they had canvassed the ballots and the Members and Fellows present in person and that more than 9 Honorary Fellows, Fellows, and Members were present in person and 2042 were represented. The Chairman stated that a quorum was present and that the session therefore could proceed. The Chairman ordered that the oath of the Tellers and Inspectors of Election, all written reports or certificates presented by them, and all ballots filed and cast at the meeting be filed with the records of the meeting. The Secretary reported that notice of the time and place of the meeting, and a program of the meeting, had been sent to all Honorary Fellows, Fellows, and Mem- bers, as required by the By-Laws and the laws of the State of New York. The Chairman stated that there were three items of business to be voted on by ballot: (1) the election of Officers and Councilors, (2) the ratification of the acts of the Council during the past year, and (3) the appointment of the Society's Auditors for the fiscal year 1966. To save time, the items were voted on at one time by a single ballot on which the vote on each item was recorded separately. The Chairman announced that a regular ticket of nominations had been prepared and mailed to all entitled to vote, as required by the By-Laws, and that no special or

other Ticket had been nominated. Therefore, the vote was merely for or against each person on the Regular Ticket. The Chairman presented the 1964 Annual Report of the Society's Officers and Committees, which had been adopted by the Council as its report for 1964, and which had been mailed to all Honorary Fellows, Fellows, and Members. He next entertained a motion to ratify the acts of the Council as set forth in that Report and in the Summary of Council Actions which had been mailed with the notice of the meeting. The motion was made by Mason L. Hill and seconded by Hollis D. Hedberg. Votes by ballot were then taken on the election of Officers and Councilors, on the motion to ratify the acts of the Council, and on the appointment of the Society's Auditors for the coming fiscal year. While the Tellers and Inspectors were canvassing the ballots and preparing their report, the Chairman asked the Secretary to read the announcement of the election of Honorary Fellows, Fellows, and Members. Secretary Creagh reported the election of 66 Fellows and 211 Members in April, and 24 Fellows and 210 Members in November. The lists are as follows:

Exhibits Publishers, State surveys, educational organizations, manufacturers of geological equipment, lithographers, and others offered excellent displays for all attending the meeting. Each year the number of those wishing to exhibit at the Annual Meeting increases, and the exhibits steadily improve in quality and content.

Field Trips More than 400 geologists took part in the eight field trips that were conducted. Five of the trips were sponsored by the Kansas Geological Survey, two trips were directed by the Missouri Geological Survey, and one trip was sponsored by the Geology Section, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City. The trips included: (1) Pennsylvanian marine banks of southeastern Kansas. Leaders: John W. Har- baugh, Daniel F. Merriam, and John L. Wray (Guidebook, 54 p., f3.00) (2) Cretaceous stratigraphy, paleontology, and paleoecology of western Kansas. Leaders: Donald E. Hattin and William A. Cobban (Guidebook, 69 p., $3.00) (3) Upper Pennsylvanian cyclothems in Kansas River valley. Leaders: Raymond C. Moore and Daniel F. Merriam (Guidebook, 22 p., $3.00) (4) Disturbed (Meteor impact? or cryptovolcanic?) structures of south-central Missouri. Leaders: Frank G. Snyder, Thomas R. Beveridge, Paul E. Gerde- mann, and Herbert E. Hendricks (Guidebook, 73 p., $1.00) (5) Geology of the Kansas City Group (Pennsylvanian) at Kansas City. Leaders: Richard J. Gentile, Charles Robertson, and Jack Wells (Guidebook, 62 p., $1.00) (6) Plant fossils and geology of coal beds of southeastern Kansas. Leaders: Allison L. Hornbaker and Robert W. Baxter (Guidebook, 34 p., $3.00) (7) Hydrogeology of lower Kansas River valley. Leaders: J. M. Jewett, Howard G. O'Connor, William J. Seevers, John D. Winslow, Carl E. Nuzman, and Roger A. Johnson (Guidebook, 45 p., $3.00) (8) Engineering geology problems of dam construction in the Mississippian and Ordovician rocks of west-central Missouri (Kaysinger Bluff and Stockton Dams). Leaders: H. R. Loepp and A. G. McLoughlin. Guidebooks for field trips 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7 can be ordered from the Kansas Geolog- ical Survey, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas 66045, at the prices shown; all five guidebooks can be purchased for $12.50. Guidebooks for field trips 4 and 5 can be ordered from the Missouri Geological Survey and Water Resources, Buehler Park, Rolla, Missouri. Unfortunately, several defective copies of guidebook 6, "Pennsylvanian fossil plants from Kansas coal balls," have been distributed. A correct copy of this guidebook can be secured by the return of a defective copy to: Mrs. Nan Cocke, Kansas Geological Survey, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Ladies Program A hospitality room was maintained in the Muehlebach Hotel from noon on Thursday, November 4 to noon on Saturday, November 6. It was well patronized.

On Thursday, November 4, there was an organized tour, with 82 ladies participating, to the International Headquarters of the Hallmark Cards and the Nelson- Atkins Art Gallery. On Friday, November 5, there was an organized tour, with 76 ladies participating, to the Harry S. Truman Library.

Council Actions The Council met on Tuesday, November 2, Wednesday, November 3, and Friday afternoon, November 5. Significant actions taken at these meetings by the Council are listed here. The Council: (1) Elected 24 Members to Fellowship and 210 candidates to Membership in the Society. (2) Voted to present all Penrose Medalists and Arthur L. Day Medalists with a life membership in the Society. (3) Accepted with thanks the responsibility for the use of the Raymond C. and Lilian B. Moore Fund. This fund has been arranged for in the form of a planned bequest to the GS A by Doctor and Mrs. Moore and is intended for use in helping to assure continuation of the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, which is published jointly by the GSA and the University of Kansas, through revisions and supple- ments, and to support other worthy projects in the field of Paleontology. (4) Voted to instruct the GSA Representatives to the AGI House of Society Representatives to ask AGI to provide a list of service jobs that AGI might do for the member societies; and voted that the Representatives constitute a committee on AGI-GSA Relationships and Programs that would report to the Council as other committees do. (5) Affirmed continuing support of the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology. (6) Authorized the Executive Secretary to continue negotiations with the Ameri- can Geological Institute and National Science Foundation for implementing the plan for the expansion of the Foreign Bibliography by a co-operative effort with AGI and NSF. The plan envisions publication on a monthly basis, and with much wider coverage, of a bibliography of geology exclusive of North America. The hope is that such a program would start in 1967. (7) Formally approved Alan Cheetham as the Chairman of the Technical Pro- gram Committee for the 1967 meeting in New Orleans. (8) Approved the procedure that has been worked out by the Headquarters office and the Committee on Membership which will greatly simplify the paper work involved in the promotion of Members to Fellows. (9) Appointed committees for 1966; these are listed in the following section. (10) Approved the customary financial resolutions presented by the Treasurer and by the Chairman of the Committee on Budget. (11) Voted to contribute $10,000 to the American Geological Institute in 1966, which includes dues of $1 per member of GSA and an additional contribution. (12) Approved in principle two symposia for the 1966 Annual Meeting in San
