OF THE

SWISS ALPINE CLUB

The Annual Report, Accounts and Balance Sheet for 1931.

THE OBJECTS OF THE ASSOCIATION, &c. The Association of British Members of the Swiss Alpine Club was founded in 1909, with the main object of encourag­ ing climbers and walkers in this country to join that Club. The S.A.C. (to give it its usual abbreviation) is nearly as old as the Alpine Club itself, and for over half a century has gone on steadily with its work of making the Alps accessible to climbers and others, in particular by building the 90 or more Club Huts which now exist. Before this Association came into being there had been many British members of the Club. But these were the exceptions rather than the rule, pardy because the average British climber had no idea how to join, and partly because it did not occur to him that there was any point in doing so. But among those who were members, there were some who felt that such a state of affairs ought not to continue; that if our climbers used the huts, they should do something to help to maintain them, and that by some means it should be made easy to join the S.A.C. The energy of the late Mr. J. A. B. Bruce created a strong Committee, which undertook this matter and brought this Association into being under the late Mr. T. Clinton Dent as President. Within two years of the start there were 300 members and their number has continued to grow. The result of our activities is that the proportion of our countrymen who climb in the Alps and are now members of the S.A.C. is very large, and most of them are also members of this Association. At the same time it was felt that there was need for a rallying point over here for these “ clubists,” and as it is not possible, by the rules of the S.A.C., for a section to be 2 formed outside , as was the case with the D.Oe.A.V. (which had a section at Manchester at one time), the Association acquired a room in which its members could meet together, and took upon itself something of the functions of a Club. All these arrangements were only undertaken after consultation with the Central Committee of the S.A.C., and the latter cordially welcomed the enter­ prise. In addition, as it was felt that we British climbers owed Switzerland something for past remissness, the fund to build the Britannia Hut was started and the building successfully carried through by 1912. The Association has been able, in many ways, to co­ operate with our Swiss colleagues, and at times to repre­ sent to them our views on mountaineering matters. On the other hand, the Central Committee has always looked on us with the greatest favour and has dealt very cordially with anything we have put before it. The number of members is now 610, and in size is, with the exception of the Alpine Club, probably the largest club interested mainly in mountaineering in these islands. An analysis of the list of members shows their distri­ bution among the various sections to be as follows: —

Altels 10 Grindelwald ... 27 Berne 10 Interlaken 8 Diablerets °5 Monte Rosa ... 40 Geneva 299 Oberhasli 26 Other Sections ... 39 The membership of the Swiss Alpine Club itself is now approaching 25,000 in about 80 sections.

NEW MEMBERS.

42 new members have joined during the past year, but 87 have resigned or died. It is hoped that members will make every effort to secure new candidates for the S.A.C. and the Association. 3 The members are now : — December 31st, 1931 ...... 697 Less Resignations, Deaths, &c., during 1931 ... 87

Total, January 1st, 1932...... 610

Of these, 189 are Life Members, 13 Honorary Members, 385 Ordinary Members, and 23 on the Retired List.

THE ADVANTAGES OF BELONGING TO THE SWISS ALPINE CLUB.

Quite apart from the sentimental feeling that a member of the S.A.C. is helping mountaineers in the country in which he is a guest to add to the amenities of the sport, the definite material advantages are set out below.

Rights in the S.A.C. Huts. Members of the Club, together with their wives, have priority of right to the sleeping places and in many huts there is a room for members only; next after members comes the ladies’ Swiss Club, and then the kindred clubs, such as the French A.C. Anyone else is really in a club hut on sufferance. In addititon a member pays, in most huts, only i franc per night, and a non-member 3 francs. Those who intend to climb have priority over others in the same category. A member may introduce his wife and children (under 20 years of age) on the same terms as himself. It is worth remembering, in connection with projected visits to huts that while a Section may reserve a hut for its members to the extent of three-quarters of its capacity only, one-quarter is always available for others of the S.A.C. It is generally worth the trouble before going to a hut to ascertain from a local hotel-keeper whether a hut is so reserved, and if it is, to go up there early in the day. As a rule these reservations may not be made on Saturdays and Sundays. It is when one comes down to a hut on a day when it has been reserved, that the advantages of membership are most precious. A few of the huts in Switzerland do not belong to the S.A.C., but as a rule these are run in close alliance with that Club and the special regulations make little difference to members of the S.A.C.

Reductions on Railways. But the matter which, perhaps, makes the greatest appeal to many people is the advantages due to the large 5 reductions made to members on the mountain railways (except in the Engadine). In taking a holiday in some districts a member saves, in these reductions, considerably more than his subscription to the Club. For convenience we publish the official list of the reductions, somewhat abbreviated, from “ Die Alpen, 1 ■> February, 1931. These reductions, as a rule, apply only to a member, and do not include his wife and children. 50% Aigle-Leysin; Aigle-Sepey-Diablerets; Arth-Rigi (includes wife and children); Brunnen-Morschach- Axenstein; Chantarella-Corviglia; Furka-Oberalp; Gerschni-alp; Gornergrat; Interlaken-Harder; Inter- laken-Heimwehfluh; Montreux-Glion, Territet-Glion, and Glion-Rochers de Naye; Oberalp (see Furka); llitom; Stanserhorn; Visp-Zermatt. 40% Bex-Gryon-Villars and Villars Chesieres-Bretaye (Chamossaire); Sierre-Montana-Vermala. 30% Jungrau; Leukerbad; Martigny-Chatelard; Monthey- Champery-Morgins; Nyon-St. Cergues’-Morez; Schol- lenen. 25% Berner Oberland; Chamonix-Montanvers; Lauterbrun- nen-Miirren; Muottas-Muraigl; Refchtsufrige Lake of Thun Railway (for the complete circuit Thun-Inter- laken); Schynige Platte; Solothurn-Zollikofen-Bern (for groups of three); Wengernalp. 20% Braunwald; Martigny-Orsieres; Stansstad-Engelberg; Lake of Thun to Beatenberg. 15% Niesen. 10% Mont Blanc (St. Gervais to Glacier de Bionnassay). There are also minor reductions in connection with motor­ cars in one or two places. To obtain these reductions it is absolutely necessary to present the card of membership when booking. It is worth noting that the reductions' are mostly available to members of the corresponding Ladies’ Swiss 6 Alpine Club, so that the old feminine grievance that only the men got any reductions is now a thing of the past, if ladies will join their Swiss Club. In this connection, the Hon. Secretaries may be able to advise members how their friends of the other sex may join the ladies’ club, which does not seem to be so well known as it might be. We may add that the badge of the ladies’ club is a particularly attractive one.

HOW TO JOIN THE SWISS ALPINE CLUB.

It is often thought by non-members that some qualifi­ cation is necessary to join the S.A.C. This is not the case. Anyone can join who can find a proposer and a seconder. The following is the procedure for anyone who wishes to join: — Write to the Hon. Treasurer, Mr. C. T. Lehmann, 28, Monument Street, E.C.3, or to one of the Hon. Secretaries (letters should be marked S.A.C. on the envelope); in this letter the writer should state whether he wishes to join a French, German, or Italian-speaking section. Arrangements will then be made for the joining of a particular section, and an entrance form will be sent. If the aspirant has no one to propose or second him, suitable arrangements will be made to obviate this difficulty. The entrance fdrm, when filled in, must be returned in all cases to Mr. Lehmann, together with a small photograph, pass­ port size, and the necessary subscription and entrance fee. For the benefit of those who leave things until the last moment, we would point out that arrangements have been made whereby members of the Geneva and the Diablerets Secdons (both of which are French-speaking Sections) can be enrolled at this end. This takes a week or ten days. Normally it takes about two months, as in the case of all other sections it is necessary to communicate with the local Committees. 7 A list of the principal sections, together with their sub­ scriptions, will be found at the end of this report. In addition, the subscription to the Association is £1 for Town members and ios. for Country members. A Country member is defined under the Rule.; as being a member who resides outside a radius of 50 miles of Charing Cross. There is no entrance fee. Anyone who joins the Association may pay through Mr. Lehmann by sending him a Banker’s Order, which is the most convenient way, or by remitting him each January the necessary subscription. The Association is willing to arrange for anyone to join the S.A.C., but only continues the remittances to Switzer­ land for those who join the Association as well. Life membership of the Association costs £8 8s. for Town mem­ bers and £q 4s. for Country members.

CARDS OF MEMBERSHIP OF THE S.A.C.

The Swiss Alpine Club Membership Card (the buff card with the member’s photograph inside) is usually issued every three years, but the new Central Committee has ■decided that the old cards shall continue to be available until further notice, provided the gummed slip with the signature of the President of the Central Committee, which has just been issued, is affixed to the lower half of the inside ■cover. It is very necessary for all members to be careful about this. The membership card is evidence of the bearer having joined the S.A.C., but the benefits of membership are only available to those who have paid the current year’s sub­ scription, and this is proved by the annual receipt which which must be shown with the membership card. For 1932 the membership card itself is sufficient evidence of payment ■of subscription, except in the case of members of the •Grindelwald and Interlaken Sections who will have to pro­ duce respectively a green or brown card as well.

Loss of Membership Card or Badge.—It is inevitable that someone or other should lose his card or badge, and this » is most likely to be discovered at holiday times. If such a loss occurs, it is best for the member concerned to write direct to his Section Treasurer, as our own officials are quite likely to be away at such a time, and in any case can only refer the matter to Switzerland. To avoid delay a photograph should be sent at the same time if it is the membership card that has been lost. Members of the Geneva and Diablerets Sections, however, can obtain new membership cards and badges straight away from the Hon. Treasurer’s office. The price of a new badge is 2s.

OFFICERS AND COMMITTEE. All the officers were re-elected. Sir R. Leonard Powell, however, having subsequently resigned from the Swiss Alpine Club, has been placed on the Retired List and ceases to hold office as Vice-President in accordance with Rule 15. The following members of the Committee retired, having com­ pleted their term of office: Captain E. Gueterbock, Messrs. B. C. Harward, J. J. Hoddinott, and S. de Vesselitsky. The resulting vacancies were filled by the election of Messrs. G. Anderson (Diablerets), V. O. Cohen (Engelberg), J. W. Healy (Geneva), and J. A. Marsden-Neye (Geneva).

FINANCE. The accounts for 1931 have been audited and certified by Mr. R. H. Sennett in the unavoidable absence through illness of Mr. F. Oughton, the Hon. Auditor. The balance of revenue account for the year 1931 amounts to the gratifying sum of £107 16s. iod., which added to the accumulated revenue of previous years, viz.: .£368 12s. 6d., brings the total to £476 9s. 4d. The Life Membership Fund which stood at £708 3s. od. has been increased by new Life Memberships to the extent of 7(13 13s. od., making a total of £721, 16s. od. As against this we have investments in Government stocks which cost us ££&i os. 2d., are of a nominal value of £i,\oor and the value at the time of going to press amounts to ^985. The financial situation at the close of 1931 is therefore excellent; but the prospects for 1932 are not so good owing 9 to the large number of resignations which brings our income dangerously near our expenditure. Finally, the Hon. Treasurer wishes to thank the many members who replied so promptly to his request for early payment, and thereby greatly facilitated the work of remit­ ting to Sections in face of the difficult Exchange position.

ANNUAL DONATION FROM GENEVA SECTION The Geneva Section has contributed £20 towards the expenses of the Association so that members of the S.A.C. resident in this country may obtain, out of the subscriptions paid by them, some of the advantages which their Swiss colleagues enjoy, but from which we are debarred by living in this country.

THE HONORARY SECRETARIES. The addresses of the Hon. Secretaries will be found inside the cover. All communications concerning the Associa­ tion Meetings should be sent to Mr. M. N. Clarke ; other communications may be made to either Secretary.

THE HONORARY TREASURER. All communications concerning subscrip­ tions should be sent to the Hon. Treasurer, Mr. C. T. Lehmann, 28, Monument Street, E.C.3. Telephone : Royal 2100.

THE WORK OF THE ASSOCIATION. The necessary qualification for membership of the Association is membership of the Swiss Alpine Club, but life members of the Association who have retired from the S.A.C. may remain as members of the Association, but they may not hold office or vote at meetings. 10 SUBSCRIPTIONS. The Association undertakes to collect and forward members’ subscriptions to Switzerland, but it is a very great convenience and saving of trouble to the Honorary Treasurer if members give him a Banker’s Order for what­ ever is due to their section, Those who do not do so should take care to send their subscriptions in promptly on January ist, as the sections expect early payment and are apt to strike late payers out of their lists early in the year.

THE CLUB ROOM AND LIBRARY. The Library and Club Room are now at Room 121 at the Hotel Great Central. This room, which is avail­ able at all times, is on the first floor, and is best reached by the entrance from Marylebone Station. The key may be obtained on application to the Reception Office. Members are particularly requested not to forget to return the key to the Reception Office before they leave the Hotel. A list of books in the Library is printed elsewhere in this Report, and the Hon. Librarian will be glad of suggestions as to additions. Books may be borrowed and any borrower should enter his name in the book provided for the purpose. Guide books and Maps, how­ ever, are not to be taken away.

LIST OF MEETINGS DURING 1932. Informal Dinners will be held on the undermentioned dates, being the fourth Wednesday in each month, at the Hotel Great Central at 7.30 p.m. Morning Dress. Price 5s. 6d., collected at table. Members intending to dine must notify M. N. Clarke, 48, Cranley Gardens, S.W.7, at least two days before each dinner. January 27th, March 23rd, April 27th, Mav 25th, July 27th, October 26th. Informal Dinners to which ladies may be invited will be held on February 24th, June 22nd and Sep­ tember 28th.

No notice of intention to dine need be given on these occasions. The subjects for these Discussions will be announced from time to time, and suggestions will be always welcomed by the Committee. It is proposed to hold a “ Meet ” in North Wales at Easter. It is also proposed to try and arrange a joint meeting with the Ski Club of Great Britain during the spring. Further details of these two fixtures will be announced later. J2

CLUB NOTES The New Year finds this country facing a crisis compared with which the troubles of each individual seem small. But the difficulty of the country at large is but the sum of the difficulties of the individuals which compose it. Our own affairs may be small, but they are excessively interesting to us as individuals. The new year finds members of this Association asking themselves—What of Swiss holidays in the future ?—Shall we see the Alps in the coming summer ? And in this matter those of us who mountaineer in the summer are to some extent more fortunate than those who ski in the winter. For most of the latter the question of their winter holiday has been already setded—in many cases by a mere question of means through the depreciation of the pound, quite apart from the question as to whether their sense of patriotism would allow them to go. Moun­ taineers have not yet had to face either the question of means or duty; they were fortunate last “ summer ” in that most of them had already finished their holiday when the crash came. Many of us live in hope that in the next six or seven months the pound may have improved suffici­ ently to enable us to afford to go to the Alps again, while the balance of trade may be so much better that our con­ sciences will be easy over the matter of spending money abroad. But the future, as always, lies unknown before us, and in due course the mountaineer may have to make the same decision as the ski-er, and no doubt he will make it with equal fortitude. The Association itself has its difficulties before it and close at hand. The new year begins with the demand for the new year’s subscription, and there is the hard fact before us that our subscriptions to our Sections will be nearly fifty per cent, more than usual. Some members will feel this more than they can spare and we are faced with a possible heavy loss of members, as a lapse of the subscription to the Sections is by our rules a bar to membership of the Associa­ tion. At the moment, it is not possible to say how the Asso­ ciation will be affected; but the Committee are prepared to take all the necessary steps to preserve its strength. In times like this, when every country in the world is faced with difficulties of all sorts which are everywhere loosening the 13 bonds between individual nations, any institution which, like our own Association, links two countries together is a power for mutual understanding and good. It will be a great pity if circumstances cause any weakening of the good feeling between this country and Switzerland. It is hoped that members will think twice before giving up their S.A.C. subscriptions. Certain Sections of the S.A.C. have already been sounded as to the possibility of the subscriptions being accepted at their old value in sterling; but so far no concession has been obtained. Until it is known clearly how much the Associa­ tion will be affected such negotiations will not produce any result.

A good selection of Siegfried maps is now available in the Library, and it is hoped gradually to make up a com­ plete set. Once more we remind members that the Associa­ tion will be glad to receive gifts of maps of the Alps, whether Swiss, French, Austrian or Italian. A certain number of guide-books has also been added to the Library during the' past year.

The monthly discussions which were started in October, 1930, were continued throughout the past year and were well attended. All except the first were illustrated by lantern slides. A detailed list is set out below: Jan. 14—“ Activities of the Association ” (General) Feb. 11—“Climbs in the Val d’Isere ” (The President) March 11—“Switzerland in October ” (General Bruce) May 13—“ Mountaineering for Boys ” (W. A. Drury) June 10—“ Some lesser known Climbing Centres in Switzerland ” (A. N. Andrews) Oct. 14—“ The High Tatra ” (Dr. H. Roger-Smith) Nov. 11—“ The Engadine as a Climbing Centre ” (M. N. Clarke) Dec. 2—“ Climbing in Britain ” (John Poole) The discussion on “ Mountaineering for Boys ” was attended by delegates of the Assistant Masters’ Association. They were very much impressed by what Mr. Drury had to say, and it is hoped that they may have been able to do some useful propaganda in their respective schools. 14 Once again we would like to remind members that suggestions for future discussions will always be welcomed by the Committee.

The attention of members is drawn to the List of Meetings for 1932, which was issued at the end of November and is reprinted elsewhere in this Report.

The chief innovation during the year was the Easter Meet at Dolgelley. About 25 members and their friends fore­ gathered at the Lion Hotel, where, in spite of the old rhyme, there was always “ plenty to put into one’s ‘ bethly ’ and someone to answer the bell.” The majority of the party arrived on the Thursday before Easter and remained until the following Tuesday, while a few of them stayed on until the end of the week. The weather, although not very good, was better than it was in most other parts of the country. Some of the party explored the glorious hill walks with which Dolgelley abounds, other scaled the rocky side of Cader Idris, while the more venturous spirits attacked the Milestone Buttress on Tryfan. On Easter Tuesday General Bruce celebrated his 65th birthday by leading all the remaining members of the party up to the summit of Rhinog Fawr, and in the evening a special birthday feast was provided by the Hotel. The Meet was such a success that it is proposed to repeat the experiment again this year.

Another innovation was the joint Meeting with the Ski Club of Great Britain on April 29th. Such a meeting had often been mooted in the past, but it was not until last year that it was found possible to bring it off. Through the kind­ ness of the Committee of the Alpine Club we were able to hold it in the Alpine Gallery, and 200 people turned up. The members of the Ski Club turned up in great force; the attendance of our Members was a little disappointing, but then it must be remembered that the Ski Club has a far larger membership than the Association. The subject was “ Ski-ing and Mountaineering ” and this was illustrated by lantern slides. The Speakers were General Bruce, Mr. Arnold Lunn and Mr. N. E. Odell. The meeting proved so popular that it is proposed to hold another one 15 this year at about the same time. The subject will be “ Winter Mountaineering,” and is one which should be of great interest to members of the Association.

On the occasion of the Ladies Night Dinner in September, Mr. F. S. Smythe gave us an extremely interesting account of the expedition to Kamet, illustrated by lantern slides. Unfortunately we only knew three days before the date of the Dinner that Mr. Smythe would be able to be present, with the result that it was impossible to notify members specially and only about too turned up to hear him.

An Association Dinner was held at on August 13th at the Hotel Schweizerhof. General Bruce was in the Chair, and nearly 30 members and guests were present. The guests of the Association were Dr. W. Berger and Dr. H. Steffen, the President and Vice-President of the Altels Section. At the close of the Dinner Dr. Berger (acting on behalf of the Bern Section) presented the Veterans Badge of the S.A.C. to Sir William Ellis. Thanks to the kind offices of Herr Trog (the Manager of the Hotel Schweizerhof) we all spent an exceedingly pleasant evening. The dinner was followed by an excellent concert and subsequently by dancing until well after mid­ night.

The Committee have felt for some considerable time that the Association ought to have some form of Memorial to commemorate those of its members who gave their lives during the Great War. Up to 1930 the Committee were faced by the difficulty that the Association had no proper room of its own. When we acquired our own room, however, at the Hotel Great Central, the Committee felt that it would be very wrong to delay action in the matter any further. A Sub-Committee was appointed to consider the question, and, as a result of their deliberations, it was decided that the most suitable form of memorial would be a plain oak shield with the names of the Fallen engraved in letters of gold. This in due course was procured, and it 16 was unveiled by the President in a touching little speech on May nth. On Armistice Day a laurel wreath was placed over the Memorial.

Mr. Reginald Graham has been made an Honorary Member of the Association. He was Hon. Auditor up to 1923 and he served on the Committee as a co-opted member from 1924 up to the end of last year, when he was forced to resign owing to ill health. He has rendered invaluable services to the Association and served on numerous Sub- Committees. The Committee desire to place on record their deepest appreciation of all that he has done for them in the past and to wish him a speedy return to health.

During the past year the Rules have been thoroughly revised and brought up to date. The new set of Rules is published with this Report.

During the “ Summer ” we received an invitation from the Magyar Turista Szoveteg to send delegates to the Congress International de Tourisme, which was to be held at Budapest from September 7th to September 13th. The Committee invited Mr. H. Simon and Dr. D. G. Macdonald to attend as representatives of the Association, but unfor­ tunately Mr. Simon was unavoidably prevented from attending at the last moment. Dr. Macdonald, however, represented the Association, and we are much indebted to him for the following account of the Congress and the events leading up to it. “ It is interesting to find that as soon as the well-known Alpine Clubs became firmly established, a series of Con­ ferences were held at whicn such international aspects of mountaineering as the training and duties of guides, the exchange of club privileges, and so forth were discussed. “ All Europe save Holland and Turkey took part at one time or another, so in fact did America, and the series culminated in the Sixth International Congress held by the C.A.F. in connection with the Great Exhibition of 1900. Thirty years later the Societe Polonaise de Tatra organised a Conference at Zakopane. Amongst the matters discussed were frontier difficulties connected with passports, visas, 17 and lack of free access to the mountains; the protection of Nature amongst the mountains; the tendency of definitely non-mountaineering interests to invade the Alps with funiculars and hotels and over-crowd the existing huts; the unfortunate contemporary habit of seeking mountaineering records of various types; and lastly the question of more perfect collaboration between existing clubs. “ It was unanimously decided that only an international organisation could hope to cope wth such problems, and a committee was formed to examine the possible forms that such an organisation could take. In the meantime the net was cast as widely as possible and a large number of moun­ taineering clubs were invited to send representatives to the 1931 Congress at Budapest to discuss the question in com­ pany with the representatives of organised ‘ Tourisme,’ whose international activities are in a fairly advanced state. “ This Congress was held at Budapest from September 7th to September 13 th under the direction of the Magyar Turista Szoveteg, and it was presided over by Dr. Tibor de Zsitvay, the Minister of Justice. “ The earlier sessions of the Congress were devoted to expounding afresh the historical material and previous pro­ ceedings that we have just described. But unfortunately only three stricdy mountaineering clubs apart from those participating in the previous Conference were able to send representatives to Budapest. These were D.CE.A.V.; The Hauptverband der Deutschen Gebirgs und Wandervereine in der C.S.R.; and our own Association. It was therefore found impossible to carry the matter as far as had at first been hoped. “ The Congress ultimately expressed its agreement with the Committee previously set up at Zakopane. A resolution was passed by the Congress to prepare for a Secretarial Bureau to be set up in Budapest to meet the needs of both Tourism and Alpinism. In addition, Monsieur Escarra was empowered to form a small workable committee to prepare definite agenda for the next Congress. This com­ mittee is to be composed of representatives selected both from those alpine clubs that were and that were not repre­ sented at Budapest, and copies of the proposed agenda will be sent to those clubs that have already expressed their IS sympathy with the Congress. It was decided that an invi­ tation to attend the next Congress International de Tourisme should accompany the agenda, and an invitation from the C.A.F. to arrange the next Congress at Chamonix early in September, 1932, was accepted. “ But it is impossible to conclude an account of the Budapest Congress without placing on record the extremely pleasant care given by Dr. Vigyazo to the entertainment of his visitors. Despite the difficulties of the Hungarian language, he was able to put his guests into pretty direct contact with most of the interesting features of Budapest and its immediate surroundings. In so doing he brilliantly achieved the avowed aim of the Magyar Turista Szoveteg, and when we mention that our activities covered a wide territory extending from an interest in Hungarian history and political problems, to a more materialistic investigation of the State Wine Cellars, it becomes clear that one cannot thank him adequately for the very delightful time we all had.” SUMMER HOLIDAYS, 1932. The Hon. Secretaries will be glad to hear from any members who wish for help in making up parties for the Alps or elsewhere. It is not possible for the Association officials to organise parties, but they are quite prepared to put members in touch with one another when they can, and this has often been done in the past. The monthly dinners for those who can attend them are of course an admirable opportunity for making summer arrangements, and if members who are short of climbing companions will ac­ quaint the Secretaries beforehand, something can often be done in the way of introductions at one of the dinners. It is desirable that communications on this • subject should be sent early, not later than the first half of July, as the Secretaries may themselves be away. It is hoped that beginners in particular will avail themselves of the help of the officials of the Association in any matters connected with holiday plans; we have often been able in the past to give advice about guides or districts to en­ quirers, and to suggest plans. Sunday Walks.—If members are desirous of arranging a training walk at any time, the Hon. Secretaries will always J9 be very glad to put them in touch with others similarly inclined, whenever possible. Such members should com­ municate with one of the Hon. Secretaries not later than the previous Wednesday. INSURANCE AGAINST ACCIDENTS. As most people have by now realised, every member of the S.A.C. is insured against accidents, an addition having been made to the annual subscription for this purpose. In 1929 the procedure was changed. The sum payable at death was formerly 10,000 francs. This sum has now been altered and is different for some sections. Seventeen sections agreed to pay an extra five francs per annum to secure 10,000 francs, but the other sections were only willing to raise the levy by one franc. The latter sections are consequently only insured up to 8,000 francs. By special arrangement with the Central Committee, members of the Association are now insured against accidents while climbing in England, Scotland and Wales in the same manner as when they are climbing in the Alps. THE ANNUAL DINNER. The Annual Dinner was held on Wednesday, November 25th, 1931, at the Hotel Great Central. The President was in the Chair and 92 members and guests were present. The guests of the Association were His Excellency The Swiss Minister (Monsieur C. R. Paravicini), the Councillor to the Swiss Legation (Monsieur de Jenner), the Hon. Secretary of the Alpine Club (Mr. Sidney Spencer), Mr. E. H. F. Bradby, Sir Francis Yourighusband, K.C.S.I., K.C.I.E., Professor Ernest Barker, D.Litt., LL.D., and the Vice-President of the City Swiss Club (Monsieur Jobin). The Toast List was as follows: “The King”; “The Swiss Confederation,” proposed by Mr. R. V. Vernon and replied to by the Swiss Minister; “ The Alpine Club and Kindred Societies,” proposed by the Hon. Treasurer and replied to by Mr. E. H. F. Bradby; “The Guests,” proposed by the President and replied to by Sir Francis Younghusband; and “ The Chairman,” proposed by Professor Ernest Barker and replied to by the President, ‘-’0
