Abstract/NotesIn a letter published in the March–April, 1942, number of this magazine I said I hoped to continue working on the problematical bodies found in rhyolite-ash in Malaya and first described by me in 1930. Further work has been done, but before giving the results I must mention the unusual sequence of events that has led up to the present paper. My identification of “rods, spheres, and club-shaped objects” as spongeremains in 1930 (the work was chiefly done in 1928) was then supported by Dr. M. Burton, who thought they came from marine sponges; but in February, 1942, he withdrew this support. In Annual Reports for 1937–1940 Mr. E. S. Willbourn, Director of the Geological Survey, Federated Malay States, recorded more outcrops of this ash and mentioned the discovery by Mr. H. D. Collings of stone axes in gravel of probably Mid-Pleistocene age below the ash. Supported by Dr. K. P. Oakley, Mr. H. D. Willbourn queried the problematical bodies being sponge-spicules.
