Humphrey Owen Jones.

4. If the Humphrey Owen Jones Lectureship Fund is in future united with any other fund making further provision for the teaching of Physical Chemistry in the University, the name Humphrey Owen Jones shall always form part of the title of the office. The interest of the Fund accruing during any vacancy shall be added to the principal sum and invested.

Eric Yarrow.

5. If in any year the income of the Eric Yarrow Lectureship Fund exceeds £500 but not £550, the excess over £500 may be used to pay the University's contribution in respect of the Lecturer under the Pension Scheme.

It shall be part of the duties of the Lecturer to give such instruction as the Faculty Board of Modern and Medieval Languages may require to provide for the teaching of students offering Modern Greek in the Modern and Medieval Languages Tripos.

Cayley and Stokes Lectureships.

7. Two of the University Lecturers in Mathematics shall bear the titles Cayley Lecturer and Stokes Lecturer respectively. When at any time there is no Lecturer bearing the title Cayley Lecturer or Stokes Lecturer, as the case may be, the General Board may, on the recommendation of the Faculty Board of Mathematics, confer the title on one of the University Lecturers in Mathematics.

Vacancies.

8. When a Lectureship supported by a benefaction mentioned in Regulation 1 falls vacant, the Appointments Committee for the Faculty or Department with which the Lectureship is connected may transfer to it with his or her consent, if they think fit, an existing University Lecturer.
