Abstract
THE tragic death of Dr. E. T. S. Appleyard through injuries caused by a fall came as a great shock to his many friends. He was born in 1904, the son of Edgar Snowden and Elizabeth Appleyard of Huddersfield. He received his school education at Almondbury Grammar School and entered Cambridge as a scholar of King's College. Taking a first class in physics in the Natural Science Tripos, he spent several years on research in the Cavendish Laboratory. In 1929 he was appointed to a George Wills research associateship in the Wills Laboratory at Bristol, a post which he held until his death. During the tenure of this post he was awarded a Rockefeller fellowship for the session 1931–32 hi the University of Chicago.
