Abstract
ON October 12 and 13, the Society of Chemical Industry sponsored a convention on high vacua under the presidency of Sir Charles Darwin, director of the National Physical Laboratory. It is worthy of record that there was much appreciative comment at the choice of Gleneagles for the meeting, and the view was expressed widely that the so-called ‘country house party’ system in which interested persons meet in conditions of intimacy for a time with little or no distractions has much to recommend it.
