Hong Kong University.

Following from Sloss. Begins.

There is now likely to be a delay of six or

eight weeks in the delivery of laboratory

Neiste equipment, and longer for microscopes. a

༠

lecturer in Biology has not yet been found, and the appointment of a lecturer in Physics

is still doubtful. No notification of senio posts is thought proper either by myself or

the Advisory Committee until University's

future is defined. Laboratory equipment an

junior staff reasonably certain by December.

I recommend therefore, that re-opening be

deferred till January.
