The active influence of the Academy has been projected to 

 outlying territory through the organization of a branch in Santa 

 Monica. 



Three issues of the Bulletin have been published and widely 

 circulated during the year, thus carrying the educational program 

 of the Academy to far and foreign fields. 



The lecture programs have been carried on through the 

 various actions, there being only two lectures held by the Academy 

 proper during the year. The first of these was an admirable ad- 

 dress by Dr. Barton Warren Evermann on the subject of "The 

 Educational Value of Natural History Museums", held in the 

 Chamber of Commerce on Thursday evening, April 14th. The 

 second lecture was held on the occasion of the annual meeting in 

 July. This was not as fully attended as the worthiness of speaker 

 and subject would warrant. Dr. B. R. Baumgardt's lecture on 

 "Through Shakespeare's and Wordsworth's England" would grace 

 the largest auditorium that any community could offer. 



The Directors for the fiscal year, as elected at the annual 

 meeting in June, 1921, are: 



Dr. Mars F. Baumgardt. Dr. Anstruther Davidson. 



Mr. J. O. Beebe. Mr. Samuel J. Keese. 



Dr. Ford A. Carpenter. Mr. George W. Parsons. 



Dr. Frank C. Clark. Mr. Theodore Payne. 



Dr. John A. Comstock. Mr. William A. Spalding. 

 Mr. George R. Crane. 



Following the annual meeting a special Directors, meeting 

 was called in accordance with established rule, and the following 

 officers were elected: 



President, Dr. Frank C. Clark. 

 1st Vice-President, Dr. Mars F. Baumgardt.
