Lakeland and Fiordland
A NEW series of Winter Course talks has begun from 4YA, providing a background for the appreciation of the South Island’s scenic lakeland and fiordland. Important aspects of this beautiful region have been selected for discussion and well qualified men are speaking on them. Dr. C. O. Hutton, M.A., F.G.S., lecturer in geology at the University of Otago, led off on July. 16 with the topic "How were they made?" Next Tuesday (July 23) at 7.15 p.m., J. D. McCraw, an honours student at the University, and a member of the committee of the Dunedin Field Club, will give a talk on the region’s flora and fauna. For July 30, Angus Ross, M.A., who lectures in history at the®University, is scheduled to speak on the part played by the Maoris in the development of the region. After that, listeners to the series will hear two talks by W. G. McClymont, M.A., a master at the Otago Boys’ High School, and author of The Exploration of New Zealand in the Centennial series. The last talk of the series will be given on August 20 by W. Scott Gilkison, B.Com., a well-known Otago mountaineer. His book on mountaineering, Peaks, Packs and Mountain ‘Tracks, was published in 1940. |
