Hatfield Memorial Lecture, The
'William H Hatfield (1882-1943) studied metallurgy at University College, Sheffield, under Professor John Arnold, who held the Chair of Metallurgy from 1889 until 1919. In 1902 Hatfield won the Mappin Medal and in 1913 was awarded the degree of Doctor of Metallurgy. Author of numerous technical papers on many branches of metallurgy, in particular rust, acid and heat-resistant steels and cast iron, Hatfield was appointed Director of the Firth-Brown Research Laboratories in 1916, and later joined the Board of Messrs Thomas Firth and John Brown Limited.
'Under a Deed dated 22 August 1944, the University of Sheffield agreed to be the Trustees of the fund which was set up for the purpose of establishing the above lecture "as a memorial to the late Dr Williams Herbert Hatfield FRS and as a mark of appreciation of his distinguished work in connection with research into the qualities and uses of metals and allied branches of science". The lecturer is appointed by the University Council on the recommendation of a Lecture Committee consisting of representatives of the University and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining and of a number of other local and national organisations who sponsor the lecture.'
