Abstract
GEORGE STANLEY WITHERS MARLOW, whose death occurred on March 5, was born in 1889, and educated at New College Choir School, Oxford, and King‘s College, University of London. He graduated B.Sc. in 1909, and the next year obtained his associateship of the Institute of Chemistry, taking as his special subject, food and drugs. The F.I.C. (now F.R.I.C.) followed in 1913. For a couple of years after graduating, he was assistant to Mr. E. Hinks, public analyst for the County of Surrey. In 1911, he joined the staff of the Government Chemist, where he remained until 1919, when he became assistant secretary of the Institute of Chemistry. After six years there, he left to become personal assistant to Mr. W. J. U. Woolcock, general manager of the Association of British Chemical Manufacturers. Meanwhile, in 1923, he had been called to the Bar, and decided to practise in 1927. He was a member of Gray‘s Inn, and pupil to the late Mr. W. Trevor Watson, K.C. He acted in such cases of chemical patents as arose, his first being the application of Boots Cash Chemists, Ltd., to revoke Sharp and Dohme in the matter of hexyl resorcinol.
