| Description | Is chiefly drafts by Evans with related correspondence. It includes much unpublished work. Also in this section is a collection of lectures and other teaching material originally belonging to A N Worden, Professor of Animal Health at Aberystwyth 1945-50. It provides fascination documentation of the teaching of veterinary science in London and Cambridge in the 1930s. There is a complete set of reprints of Evan's publications at E.131.
Contents of Evans's box labelled 'Typed lectures Worden': three files of lectures and teaching material assembled by A N Worden.
Worden studied veterinary science at London University (Royal Veterinary, Birkbeck and University Colleges) in the mid-1930s. He was Research Student at the Lister Institute of Preventative Medicine and University of Cambridge 1938-1941 and Research Officer 1941-1945. In 1945 he was appointed Professor of Animal Health at the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth, a position he held until 1950 when he left to found the Huntingdon Research Centre.
The collection consists mainly of material for lectures given by others in London 1934-1939 and duplicated typescript instructions for practical work, chiefly for the University of Cambridge Biochemistry course 1939-1940. There are also a few ms notes dated 1941 and 1942 and an undated draft on 'The Welsh language in South Scotland' (E.130). Worden probably handed over the material to Evans (then lecturer in Worden's department at Aberystwyth) on his departure in 1950.
The contents of these three very bulky files have been retained in their original order but for ease of reference are divided into 28 folders.
