use of the room, and to Mr. A. Gilligan, B.Sc, for arranging an 
exhibit of tectonic models. Earlier in the day a party visited the 
Ganister Quarry at Meanwood, and inspected the latest section 
of the folded and faulted strata. Messrs. E. Parsons, B.Sc. (Leeds) 
and Gilbert Y. Tickle, H.M. Inspector of Mines (Leeds), were 
elected members. 
The Easter Field Excursion was taken to Filey. Messrs. J. W. 
Stather, F.G.S., and T. Sheppard, F.G.S., prepared an excellent 
programme, and did much to make the meeting enjoyable and 
instructive. On Friday, March 25th, the party walked to 
Gristhorpe and Cayton Bays, and found the sections well-exposed. 
In the evening the General Meeting was held at the Royal Crescent 
Hotel, with Mr. G. W. Lamplugh, F.R.S. as Chairman, in 
the unavoidable absence of the President. An interesting 
conversation on the local geology was initiated by the Chairman 
and was continued by Mr. Stather and several other members. Con- 
gratulations were offered to Mr. A. Wilmore on attaining the 
degree of Doctor of Science in the University of London. On 
Saturday, March 26th, the party walked along the foreshore to 
Speeton and examined the drift sections in the chffs, which 
included large boulders of transported Lias, which yielded speci- 
mens of Ammonites new to Yorkshire. At Leighton and Speeton 
exposures in the Speeton Shell Bed," Kimmeridge Clay and 
Red Chalk were examined, and their characteristic fossils collected. 
On Monday, March 28th, a visit was paid to Bridlington, where 
the cliff sections of the Post-Glacial and Pre-Glacial beds were 
examined. The headland was crossed to Flamborough North 
Landing and sections in the Chalk round Thomwick Bay were 
examined. The Chairman pointed out interesting evidence that 
the headland had only been recently cleared of its enveloping 
glacial beds, and patches of boulder-clay were seen still filling up 
hollows in the ancient chalk cliffs. He also explained the forma- 
tion of the suture-like markings and the marl bands in the Chalk. 
The Summer Meeting was held at the Rose and Crown Inn, 
Bainbridge (Wensleydale) on June 18th, when Messrs. Bernard 
Hobson, M.Sc. (Sheffield), Ronald Sykes (Huddersfield), and

Wensleydale, which was continued by Mr, Cosmo Johns, Mr. Wm.
