Abstract
THE first post-war meeting of Bavarian physicists, held in Munich during July 29-August 2, was attended by almost noted physicists of the western zones of Germany and even by one representative of the easternsector of Berlin. It was a happy occasion, connected with series of celebrations in honour of the sixtieth birthday of Walther Gerlach, who has recently been re-elected Rector Magnificus of the University of Munich. Gerlach's gay spirit indirectly enlivened all activities, and the dull solemnity of the usual congress dinners was expelled by a cabaret staged by his pupils.
