Ruapehu in Retrospect
Ruapehu in Retrospect
Between the two showings of the film an illustrated lecture was presented by Robin Oliver and Jim Witten-Hannah on their experiences on Ruapehu a few weeks ago. (See illustration in our issue of July 11.) This was advertised as "How to set foot on a Live Tholoid," but as no pictures were available of this famous circus act, Mr. Oliver outlined the events from a scientific viewpoint, while Mr. Witten-Hannah presented some of the philosophical aspects. The talk was illustrated by lantern slides prepared from Mr. Oliver's photographs.
