ULSA was formed in 1965 precisely to maintain experienced members input to LUUSS and the model is still working 50 years later, albeit LUUSS is now LUUCAS (or something like this). By the way, I know LUSS/LUST didn't succeed in staying the course but there is always an exception to the rule.

Can anyone make any sense of this? the only recognisable reference I can see is ULSA. (Uni. Leeds Spelio--Ass.-)

It's the model whereby the graduate members of a uni club (Leeds University Union Speleo Soc.) form a wider membership club (University of Leeds Speleo Assoc.). As nearlywhite notes, there are several way of achieving the same end.
