The following is an extract from our "School News", and refers only to a post
in Pure Mathematics, suppressing the others which are in Applied Maths or in
Mathematical Statistics. It contains some junk I didn't get around to
removing, in the way of printing instructiond, but seems to be legible. I'm
sure the Registrar can supply the position-code that is not yet announced, if
anyone applies without it to the given address.
_______
