Lynch of the University of Toronto will deliver the third in the series of St. Dunstan's University Centennial Year public lectures at the Col- lege Auditorium on Monday eve- ning, March 15.

In 1950 Dr. Lynch headed the international Students Service Stmlnar in Paris, and in 1951 he directed a similar seminar in Ot- luwa.

From St. Dunstan's Dr. Lynch will go to Boston where he is scheduled to conduct a seminar in philosophy at Harvard Univer- sity on March 20.

Mr. J. W. Lucas, Director rest- ing Laboratories, Federal Depart- ment of Public Warts, Ottawa, last evening concluded a two-day round table conference with Act- ing District Engineer Clive W. Currie and his associates.

The conference was designed to familiarize the men in the field uith the operations of the Labor- atorles and the equipment avail-s able there to deal with local prob- lems and also to clarify local con- ditions for headquarters officials.

Primarily the Laboratories make tests of every cencelvable nature for several departments or govern-

ment. to insure that materials -purchased meet reasonable speci- ilcatlons.

Three main Divisions deal with such materials as concrete. Port- land Cement, concrete products. bricks, metals and metal products. The soil division treats with soils for foundation purposes as dis- tinguished from Agriculture, and decides on the physical properties with a view to erecting st safe and economical structure on it. Sam- ples from the proposed sites of buildings are sent to Ottawa. and carefully analyzed in order to eliminate the possibility of settling as well as to verify for drainage.
