Over a period of 40 years, Dr. Bull, through his individual research and his association with other workers has made an outstanding contribution to the field of comparative pathology, bacteriology and parasitology. In particular may be cited his studies on infection by, and resistance to Corynebacterial ovis in sheep, his studies on bovine and mastitis (from which have largely arisen the now accepted methods of control of infection by Streptococcus agalactiae), the foundation work on myxomatosis and the causal organism (Myxomatosis cuniculi), and his contribution to the understanding of copper and molybdenum metabolism in sheep in relation to the problems of chronic copper poisoning and the toxicity of Heliotropium Europeum. Dr. Bull has made an outstanding contribution to the science and to the well-being of livestock industries of the Commonwealth.

During a lifetime membership of the staff of the Department of Geology, Sydney University, he contributed some 36 original publications, a number of which are of great merit reflecting an unusually able and critical attitude of mind in prosecuting investigations. These publications deal mainly with major petrological and igneous problems of the Commonwealth. The most notable of his works was the co-ordination and revision of Sir Edgeworth David's manuscript, incomplete when he died, to which Browne added greatly and, after years of work and study produced as the Authority on the Geology of the Commonwealth (3 volumes). At various times Browne has been seconded to give technical advice relating to large public works and the Broken Hill mines.

Roy Woodall is distinguished for his significant contribution to the development of the geological sciences as applied to mineral exploration, and for his remarkable contribution to the discovery of some of Australia's major mineral resources. Among other developments he was responsible for the discovery of the first commercial nickel in Australia, and for the development of the Western Mining Corporation research group that led to the discovery of the great Olympic Dam copper-gold-uranium deposit. Roy Woodall has made extensive contributions to scientific education, industrial scientific research, and to the development of productive relationships between Science and Industry in Australia.

Distinguished as applied scientist and business administrator. Joining CSIRO as a research scientist, Zeidler later founded its Chemical Engineering Section. Recruited by ICIANZ in l952 to establish its Research Laboratory, he rose spectacularly to Chairman in l973 and piloted ICI Australia through a period of rapid expansion during which he backed research and development consistently and strongly. A director of several of Australia's most influential companies, following retirement from ICI in 1980 he became chairman of the committee to report to the Australian Government on the sharing of power resources in South-Eastern Australia. Indefatigable in community service, especially in education, he served on the CACAE, the Sweeney and the Williams Committees. He is Vice-President of The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute, the Defence Science Committee, and the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences.

After the war (during which he was a valuable member of Professor T.H. Laby's Scientific Instruments and Optical Panel) PhiIIip Law was appointed Senior Scientific Officer of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) when these were first established in 1947. His duties were to develop and coordinate programmes of scientific research for the expeditions and to participate in the cosmic ray experiments. In 1949 Law was appointed Director of the Antarctic Division of the Department of External Affairs, a post that he held untiI 1966. In this position he created an organization for scientific research and exploration and led it so successfully that Australian Antarctic achievements have earned the respect of the world. Under his direction some 4000 miles of Antarctic coast were charted and a very large area of unknown territory explored and mapped. Law collaborated with the Bureau of Meteorology and the Bureau of Mineral Resources to develop scientific work at two Sub-Antarctic stations, Heard Island and Macquarie Island. Programmes in cosmic rays, upper atmosphere physics and glaciology were developed within the Antarctic Division. Law also took a keen personal interest in work on Antarctic biology, hydrography (in collaboration with the RAN) and cartography (in collaboration with the Division of National Mapping).

Sir James Alexander Forrest was born on 10 March, 1905 and was educated in law at the Melbourne University. His professional career has been in the law as a partner in a Melbourne firm of solicitors and in business. He holds positions on the Boards of a number of companies including, for example, Australian Consolidated Industries, Alcoa and the Western Mining Corporation. In addition, he has served finance and banking through his membership of the Board of the National Bank of Australasia, the Chase NBA Group Ltd., and the Australian Mutual Provident Society. Sir James was a member of the Council of Monash University and his contributions in Council and Committee meetings and personally were important features in the early formative years of the University. He is a member of the Committee of the Royal Children's Hospital Research Foundation Melbourne. Sir James has served on the Finance Committee of the Academy for 10 years. He has provided valuable advice to the Academy on such matters as investment policies and opportunities, on the preparation and presentation of estimates and of the ways and means which may be open for acquiring funds. If the Academy is to fulfil its expected role in Science and increasingly in the community generally, then adequate finance must be assured. Effective representation of cases to Government for continued support and to other bodies including industrial organisations for special needs requires skill and advocacy. Sir James, through his membership of the Finance Committee has already demonstrated his interest in the utilization of his special skills in the service of the Academy. His direct participation as a Fellow in the activities of the Academy can only broaden his understanding of the involvement of the Academy in the community and provide a background for his continued service to the signal benefit of the Academy.
