PRINCIPAL'S REPORT

T

HE summer of 1975 saw the retirement of Dr. Honor Smith, Custos Hortulorum and Additional Fellow of the College who, as May Reader in Medicine, was a Research Fellow of the College from 195o to 197x. Miss Rachel Wall resigned her post of Tutor in Politics on grounds of ill health and was elected an Additional Fellow of the College in October. This year we welcome three new Retaining Fee Lecturers: Mrs. Christiane Sourvinou-Inwood in Classical Archaeology, Miss Christine Kenyon in English, and Mr. J. Rowett in Politics; also Miss Janet Morgan who was appointed Special Lecturer in Politics for one year; all of whom took up their appointments in October 1975. Mrs. Hazel Edbury was appointed SubLibrarian and took up her duties on 1 April 1975. The Memorial Fund for Miss Gwyer now stands at over 800 and we are most grateful to all those who have so far contributed. The engraved glass panel, which is to be set in the wall behind the Principal's pew in Chapel, has been on show at the Fine Arts Society Exhibition of Laurence Whistler's glass engravings held in London between 1 December 1975 and 9 January 1976, and will, we hope, be shortly set in its place. We have also received the gift of a bust of Miss Gwyer, sculptured by Maureen Coatman, from Miss Towerton, who is also donating a marble base for it. The bust will stand outside the Chapel. In addition to the other gifts to the College listed on p. 18, we are very pleased to have the loan from Miss E. B. Sturgis of her copy of the Kelmscott Chaucer, which is on show in the Library. In November 1975 we were happy to welcome, among other visiting preachers throughout the year, the College Visitor, Lord Ramsey of Canterbury, whom we were delighted to have with us. We hope that he will come again often. The Elizabeth Wordsworth Junior Research Fellowship was awarded to Mrs. Tucker (nee Fawcett), Oriental Studies, the Yates Senior Scholarship to Miss Woodward (First Class Honours in Mathematics, Durham), and the Moberly Senior Scholarship to Miss Lacey (Theology). Two Rawnsley Studentships were awarded: to Miss Bartos who is working for a B.Litt. on the Music of Medieval Bohemia and Moravia, and to Mrs. Konnova, working for a B.Litt. on the semantic differences in Polish dialects. Miss E. A. Lafferty was awarded the Countess of Warwick Travelling Bursary; Miss H. Kirkby was placed proxime for the Gibbs Prize in History. Miss C. M. Bean, Modern Language teacher from Westonbirt, was Schoolmistress Student in Spanish in Hilary Term 1975 and Miss J. Davies, from Aldwick School, in Mathematics in Trinity Term 1975. Once again we are pleased to have among our overseas students a Chinese Probationary Administrator, Miss Alice Tai from Hong Kong. In the course of the year a number of undergraduates were elected to College Scholarships and Exhibitions: in Hilary Term 1975, B. L. Davison, R. Hawes, and A. Leighton, Hodgson Exhibitions in English; in Michaelmas Term 1975, J. C. Halfpenny and V. Thompson, Old Students' Scholarships in Mathematics. In Michaelmas Term 1975 the number of undergraduates in residence reading for a first degree was 314. Of these 295 were undergraduates coming straight from school, 15 were qualified for Senior Status and 4 were classified 6


as Mature Students. 59 candidates were in residence reading for higher degrees, of whom 34 were Oxford graduates and 24 graduates of other universities. Of these, 20 are candidates for the B.Litt., 7 for B.Phil., 7 for B.M., 6 for M.Sc., i for B.C.L. and ii for D.Phil.; 4 for Biochemistry Part II and 3 for Chemistry Part II. One graduate of the College and 3 from other universities are taking Diplomas; 5 graduates of the College are taking the Certificate of Education. Athletically the year was distinguished by St. Hugh's first ever Bump in Trinity Term 1975, an occasion greeted with much celebration. The Schools results were outstanding for the top three Firsts in Physiological Sciences : S. Y. Holdich, A. J. Keidan, and Y. C. Ng. Miss Ng has been awarded the Gustav Mann Clinical Medical Scholarship for 1975 at the Radcliffe. Firsts were also awarded to A. Brackenbury in English, L. P. Earnshaw in Geography, M. L. Jones in Literae Humaniores, M. J. Lee and M. E. Oliver in Mathematics, and J. Payne in Theology. 78 candidates were placed in the Second Class and 11 in the Third. R. T.

THE JUNIOR COMMON ROOM, 1975

O

NE of the most pleasant features of the last year has been the fact that politics have played such a small part. The existence of the Oxford University Student Union has, despite its ineffectiveness, quietened the disruptive forces in the University, and our own J.C.R. meetings have reflected a keener interest in that hoary chestnut, the state of the washing machines, than in Chilean solidarity. St. Hugh's members have continued to play an important part in a wide variety of University societies; in particular, many of the best plays have had St. Hugh's undergraduates in leading roles. It is invidious to single out a particular production but I must mention Monteverdi's Orfeo, put on at the Playhouse in Hilary Term with a large St. Hugh's contingent and conducted by Jane Glover, our Joanna Randall-Maclver Junior Research Fellow. The performance was widely acclaimed. As we had contributed so often to the musical efforts of other colleges, we decided this year that the time had come to hold a concert of our own. At the beginning of June, therefore, we held a concert in the garden, having persuaded most of the best instrumentalists in the University to take part. The programme included Mozart's 'Jupiter' symphony and second horn concerto, and Handel's `Water Music', which was not inappropriate in view of the weather! Catherine Ennis made her conducting debut. The concert was a great success and we hope the venture may be repeated in future years. College social activities have generally been highly successful, especially the 'Drinks' parties held for the Freshers, in conjunction with University College, and the Scouts' Party held at the end of Michaelmas Term. Our achievements in the various fields of sport will be described in a separate report, but I stress the notable achievement of our First Eight in making the first ever women's bump in the Summer Eights, at the expense of Magdalen IV. Finally I would like to have been able to report the success of our team (Alison Farrar, Fiona Ewart, Helen Kirkby, and Rosalind Hedley-Miller) in the Granada Television's programme 'University Challenge'. Unfortunately we lost somewhat ignominiously to Keele University in the first round. This was a blot on what was otherwise an extremely happy year. ROSALIND HEDLEY-MILLER (President)


Games Report. 1975 has been another successful year for St. Hugh's. In

Hilary Term we won the inter-collegiate Netball `Cuppers' and in Michaelmas we were narrowly beaten by the eventual winners in the Hockey `Cuppers'. Trinity Term undoubtedly provided the piece de resistance when the St. Hugh's Eight made the first women's bump ever on a men's crew—a still cringing Magdalen Eight. Even now, six months later, evidence of the victory remains boldly chalked, in previously exclusively male tradition, by the main door. Nor does the St. Hugh's prowess lie only in these sports: out of a team of ten athletics Blues seven members were from St. Hugh's, and Blues for tennis, squash, badminton, fencing, cricket, and lacrosse have also come our way, in addition to those in netball, hockey, and rowing—a total of twenty-six at the last count. St. Hugh's has also provided the following University Captains: Sally Jones (squash and tennis), Beverley Mather (Boat Club), Jane Carroll (badminton), Delia Rothnie (fencing), Erica Ison (netball). Blues in 1975 were gained by Sally Jones (netball, squash, tennis, cricket), Mary Underhill (athletics, hockey, badminton), Helen Bayley (squash, hockey, athletics), Claire Wickham (hockey, cricket), Beverley Mather (rowing), Jane Maggs (rowing), Sheena Lauckner (coxing), Christine Thomas (tennis), Caroline Murdoch (lacrosse), Geraldine Yates (lacrosse), Penny Kingsland (athletics), Gill Suttle (athletics), Julie Halfpenny (athletics), Cathy Meunier (athletics), Caroline Newton (athletics), Jane Carroll (badminton), Delia Rothnie (fencing), Erica Ison (netball).

MIDDLE COMMON ROOM

T

HE Middle Common Room of St. Hugh's has this year experienced a marked increase of interest and participation in its activities and programmes. The Common Room has been redecorated, social functions expanded, facilities for members increased, and a new sense of cohesion fostered. The Common Room, at 1z Canterbury Road, had been gradually falling into disuse because of lack of interest on the part of members and the generally gloomy aspect of the room. With the kind help of the Bursar, all of the chairs and sofas have been re-covered and new draperies hung. Using M.C.R. money, members purchased new tables, lamps, coffee and tea sets, and pictures. To illustrate the extent of the interest in this project, some members on their own initiative, provided funds for the acquisition of various decorative furnishings. The Common Room now has a much more inviting atmosphere and is in frequent use for entertaining, relaxing, reading, and studying. A weekly tea on Sunday afternoons has been initiated and is well attended. The completion of the redecoration of the Common Room was celebrated with a spaghetti dinner to which the members of Brasenose College M.C.R. were invited, followed that evening with a dance hosted by Brasenose. Other social activities in the past year have included the annual exchange with the members of Queen Elizabeth House of a wine and cheese party at St. Hugh's in Michaelmas Term, followed by a dinner party at Queen Elizabeth House in Hilary and a highly successful croquet party at the end of Trinity Term to which the members of the M.C.R.s of Brasenose, Oriel, and St. Catherine's 7

1


were invited. In addition to our formal liaisons with Brasenose and Oriel, this year we were invited to establish a link with Hertford College M.C.R., so that we could share each other's facilities and organize joint social events. To inaugurate the liaison St. Hugh's entertained Hertford at a Christmas party, complete with Father Christmas, as played by our Social Secretary, Ruth Chadwick, who was this year awarded ÂŁzoo in a national philosophy essay contest. Like Miss Chadwick, over a third of the members of the M.C.R. are graduates of St. Hugh's reading for higher degrees, diplomas, or certificates. The others are graduates of other universities or mature students reading for the B.A. or for higher degrees. This year's members represent sixteen countries: Canada, Cyprus, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Italy, Lebanon, Pakistan, U.K., U.S.A., U.S.S.R., and Venezuela. They are studying subjects ranging from agricultural economics to social anthropology, from prehistoric archaeology to clinical biochemistry. A number of members are involved additionally in University theatrical and musical productions. Those members of the M.C.R. studying at St. Hugh's on special scholarships or programmes include Hong Kong Probationary Administrator Alice Tai, Rawnsley Students Vera F. Konnova, from Moscow State University, and Blanca A. Bartos, Marshall Scholar Christine C. Plews, Moberly Senior Scholar Moira A. Lacey, and Yeates Senior Scholar Rosemary J. Woodward. The officers of the M.C.R. have been Christine Plews, President; Karin Kapadia, Vice-President; Amanda Mitchell, Secretary; Rina Kampeas, Treasurer; and Ruth Chadwick, Social Secretary.

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION OF SENIOR MEMBERS ry HE fiftieth Annual Meeting of the Association of Senior Members was 1 held in the Mordan Hall on Saturday, z8 June 1975 at 3 p.m., the President, Miss Marr, in the chair. Thirty-five members were present. The President called on the meeting to stand in memory of those members who had died during the year. The Minutes of 6 July 1974 were accepted and signed and there was no business arising from the minutes. The President's Report. 'In presenting my report for the past year of the activities of the Association I think it may interest you to know that this is the fiftieth Annual General Meeting of the Association. `The Committee has met three times since the last AGM, in November, March, and today. At the November Meeting we welcomed as new members of the Committee Mrs. Margaret Potter, Miss Valerie Chancellor, and Dr. Bradbury, 'wearing a new hat', so to speak, as she had previously served as the Editor of the Chronicle. We also welcomed Dr. Fleet who has assumed the Editorship of the Chronicle. This is an incredibly demanding piece of work and often, I think, must be a frustrating one. We do thank Dr. Fleet very much for all she has done. We appreciate very much her hard work and the interesting Chronicle she has edited. `I am sure we all agree that last year's Gaudy was a very happy one—it was also a very popular one. You will have seen among the notices that the time has come when we feel we must be prepared to face the fact that there could be more applications for the Gaudy Dinner than could be accommodated. Last year, in the end, everyone who applied did get in, but you will see that there is a scheme in hand for 1976 which will give priority to, first, "any years up to 1926" (those who would presumably be categorized by the young as "the Oldies" and, for the first time I am glad to be included in the group!) and, secondly, to those who matriculated in the years 1945-55. It is proposed to vary the second group from Gaudy to Gaudy, in similar groups of ten years. But I would stress that this should not deter anyone else from applying —it is merely that in 1976 priority will be given to those two groups. Miss Major and Miss Easterbrook are also going to work out a more comprehensive Booking Form, to make arrangements easier and clearer. Some confusion did arise last year from people forgetting what they had booked for and appearing for unbooked meals. Of course Miss Major and Chef coped magnificently with this emergency but we do not wish to place the College in this predicament again. The dates for the Gaudy are, as announced in the Chronicle, 2-4 July.' The President then asked the Principal if she would like to give a fuller account of the proposal for the memorial to Miss Gwyer. The Principal said it was a project very near to her heart. She felt that we should consider ourselves very fortunate in obtaining the services of Mr. Lawrence Whistler. The first suggestion had been an engraving in the East Window, but this had proved unsuitable both because of the divided panes which would create problems of imbalance, and because dense foliage was needed as a background. The artist had therefore recommended a cabinet memorial in which the engraving would be backed by black velvet and illuminated by fluorescent lighting. 20


The design would incorporate an aerial view of an Oxford scene. Mr. Whistler had said that he had long wanted to use the Anglo-Saxon poem The Dream of the Rood and illustrate the Cross with one side bejewelled and the other weeping, symbolizing triumph and suffering. He had made a very attractive first sketch of this with the world beneath. The Principal felt that we must allow Mr. Whistler the freedom as a distinguished artist to make his own design. The President then thanked the Principal for these details and said that the Committee had welcomed the proposals. The College Report. The following are points from the account given by Miss Jacobs, the Governing Body Representative (until MT 1975) on the A.S.M. She first made reference to the many occasions on which the Principal had been invited to lecture outside Oxford: to the Soroptimist Club of Central London, to the Cheshire Branch of the Oxford Society, to the Tennyson Society, and at the Annual Meeting of the Bronte Society. The Principal had also preached the University Sermon at St. Mary's on 3 November 1974. and had revived the tradition of fortnightly sermons in College Chapel, which had been a practice of Miss Gwyer. The fifth Henry Rowlatt Bickley Memorial Lecture had been delivered by Professor John Hale. His subject was 'Art and audience: the Venus de Medici 1750-185o'. About the Library, Miss Jacobs said the Governing Body was considering the replanning of the Main Library and probably more would be heard of this, and of the cost involved, at the 1976 Gaudy. Major repairs had been carried out at The Lawn but they would be finished and the house made fully operational for the academic year 1975-6. Of members of the Senior Common Room, Dr. Honor Smith would retire on 31 July and Dr. Mary Lunt would replace her as Custos Hortulorum. Miss Gradon, Miss Major, Mrs. Lunn, and Mrs. Gehring had all been on leave for part of the academic year. Miss Jane Glover, the Joanna RandallMaclver Junior Research Fellow, had distinguished herself again this year conducting a remarkably successful production of Claudio Monteverdi's Orfeo from a text newly edited by herself for this performace. It marked the fiftieth anniversary of the O.U. Opera Club, which was inaugurated in 1925 with the same opera and conducted by the late Sir Jack Westrup. This was the third opera Miss Glover had conducted in Oxford, the others being The Marriage of Figaro in 1971 and her own edition of Cavalli's Rosinda in 1973. She would be conducting Cavalli's Eritrea for the Wexford Festival in October. The College's musical and dramatic activities had flourished: in May the St. Hugh's Players had given a 'Tudor Entertainment' with actors, musicians, and singers; there was a Garden Concert on 1 June and in February Miss Blanca Bartos had given a concert for voice, lute, and harpsichord with piano accompaniment in Hertford College Chapel. Finally, Miss Jacobs wished to congratulate Miss Rosemary Woolf, Fellow of Somerville College, who had been awarded the Israel Gollancz Prize, sponsored by the British Academy, for her work in Early English Literature, and to bid farewell to Mrs. Caird, as Asst. Librarian—the College was fortunate in having Mrs. H. Edbury in her place—and to Madge, as Head Maid, who had been at the College continuously since 1946 and had looked after the S.C.R. so loyally and devotedly. In reply the President thanked Miss Jacobs for her account of the many academic and other successes in so many fields and so many different countries. 21


Sherry Party, 31 October 1975. The President explained that it has been the custom to hold such a party in London in non-Gaudy years. After extensive inquiries, however, about holding it at a hotel or a club the Committee found that the cost of doing so would be so high that the price of the tickets might well have deterred people from coming. Moreover the quotations given in January might well have rocketed by October. When, therefore, Lady Johnston very kindly offered her house for use the offer was most gratefully accepted. Arrangements for contacting members of the Association. The Editor made a statement, based on evidence she had derived from information contained in the 'coloured forms' about the increasing difficulties of keeping in touch with members. The President said that this was a very moving account of an aspect which had not been given sufficient attention in the past. She thought it would be an excellent idea to publish names of 'volunteers' in the Chronicle [cp. the notice on p. 5o]. It was the general feeling of the meeting that this was a worthwhile idea which might be developed further for the Gaudy A.G.M., when more people would be present. The President then thanked the Committee and in particular Mrs. Cockshoot for all they had done to help, advise, and support her throughout the year. There was no other business and the meeting was closed.

DOROTHY WINIFRED SPRULES HE following extracts are taken from a tribute given by Miss G. Smith 1. at the Memorial Service held in Grosvenor Chapel on 12 October 1972 for Miss D. W. Sprules, Commoner of the College 1902-5, Member of the College Council 1921-6, who died on 8 September 1972: 'Miss Sprules was educated at Sutton High School and St. Hugh's College, Oxford. She read history although she had originally intended to read classics. Later in life an invitation to become a member of the governing body of her much loved college gave her great delight, but she never ceased to feel surprised that she should have been thought worthy of this honour. `After Oxford she worked for a time in the Record Office of the British Museum, in connection with the County Histories. . . . She soon left this congenial work, however, driven, as through the whole of her life, by a desire to be of more direct service. . . . As Second Mistress at Ware Grammar School until the middle of the First World War she helped much in the building up of that young school, then (after war-work as a welfare officer with women in munition factories) she was appointed in 1918 headmistress of Tonbridge 25


Grammar School. . . . In 1920 she became headmistress of the Haberdashers' Aske's School at Acton and here, appreciating to the full its already long history . . . she took the school from strength to strength.' The Principal's Report in the Chronicle of 1972-3 makes special mention of Miss Sprules's gift of £1,zoo (£200 for the Chapel and £1,000 for general College purposes) and the previous number, 1971-2, records the gift of silver menu-card holders for use on High Table presented jointly by Miss Sprules and her close friend, Miss R. W. Goddard, who also came up to St. Hugh's Hall in 1902. I am much indebted to Miss Goddard for all this information. Ed.

DOROTHY MARGARET HAMMONDS, C.B.E. MHE following obituary has been reproduced from The Times of 6 January 1. 1975 by permission : 'Dorothy Hammonds, C.B.E., who died on December 3oth had a very distinguished career as an inspector of schools. `She was appointed to the inspectorate at a time when important changes were being made in the position of women inspectors and so had the then unusual experience of being a district inspector, a divisional inspector (the first woman to hold this post) and, later, a chief inspector. `Her school days at Clapham High School (GPDST), when the brilliant and redoubtable Mrs. Woodhouse was headmistress, and family outings to the London Theatres fired her imagination and led to her keen advocacy of "drama in education". `Many will remember her infectious enthusiasm, always kindled by lively humour, whenever she saw the possibility of using old features of school buildings for a different conception. . . . Dorothy Hammonds wrote of her school time as "enormously happy days for me" : she felt the same about her time at St. Hugh's College, Oxford [1904-7] where she read for the Honours School of English Language and Literature and was secretly proud that this did not result in a degree because "they did not then award them to women". Her enjoyment reached fulfilment in her work in the inspectorate. `After her retirement in 1947 she was invited to join the council of the Girls Public Day School Trust to which she brought her enthusiasm, her experience and her affection. She resigned in 1966 and was immediately elected a vice-president of the Trust. `All those who remember Dorothy Hammonds will be glad to know that she enjoyed Christmas with friends and died peacefully in the early hours of the morning of 3o December 1974.' The Principal has been pleased to accept for the College archives the witty and charmingly illustrated diary which Miss Hammonds kept during the time she was up at St. Hugh's. Ed.

LORNA VIOLET SOUTHWELL

MISS

L. V. SOUTHWELL, whose death was recorded in the Chronicle of 1972, came up to St. Hugh's from Roedean School in 1909 to read Greats and sat the Lit. Hum. examination in June 1913. As there are still many of her College contemporaries who remember her, it is thought not inappropriate that this tribute, although late, should be included here.

Miss Osyth Potts (1911) who gave the address at her Memorial Service on 17 March 1972, in the Grosvenor Chapel, London, quotes one friend as saying: 'She was the outstanding figure of her year—such a leader, but withal so humble.' She was President of the College Debating Society, she became an Oxford Hockey Blue and she was Senior Student. When she went down in 1913 she became a Travelling Secretary of the Student Christian Movement and, in 1918, she joined the W.R.N.S. and was second in command to her Divisional Director. In 1927 St. George's School was founded at Clarens, Switzerland, by Miss Southwell with Miss Potts's help and, until Miss Potts could join her in 1928, she was sole Headmistress. She remained at St. George's until 1949 and after that became Chairman of the Swiss Company and of the School Governors. It was as Headmistress of St. George's that she was invited to acknowledge the Toast to the Association of Senior Members at the Jubilee Dinner in June 1936. In 195o she became a parttime Research Assistant at the Institute for Education, Bristol University, and then in 1954 she returned, temporarily, as Headmistress to St. George's. She died on r x February 1972. In another women's college at Oxford, against the date 1909, which was the year Miss Southwell came up, there are carved the words: non frustra vixi which her friends believe would also be a fitting epitaph for Miss Southwell's life's work.

PHYLLIS MARY GWYNNE

MISS

EVELINE BLADES writes: 'Phyllis Gwynne came up to St. Hugh's with me in 1909 having been my oldest friend since our school days and for the first year at College we shared rooms. During her days there she was very reserved and was known mainly for her prowess on the river and on the hockey field. `After a year's training at the Maria Grey Training College she taught for a short time at the Girls' High School at Wisbech but there was no hint then of her future exploits. The outbreak of the 1914 war soon changed the pattern of her life. At one time she and a friend ran and owned a garage and drove many V.I.P.s including Lord Northcliffe around the country on their wartime duties. In the middle of 1923 she went out to British Guiana where she established a school for miners' children with the Demarara Bauxite Co. at Mackenzie River. `Later with her love of travel she taught round the world in Spain, Egypt, and India and then became the Head of the English Department at a school for Siamese Princesses in Bangkok. This seems to have been the highlight of her teaching career. She was much beloved by her pupils wherever she went and, on a return visit to Siam en route for Japan years later, she was given a wonderful welcome and when she left for the boat was accompanied by a long procession of her ex-pupils and their children bearing enough fruit and flowers for all the cargo boat's passengers for a month. Later, having officially retired, she went out to Kenya to coach a pupil on a pyrethrum farm and then did some teaching in a private school at Frinton-on-Sea in exchange for a flat. After several very happy years at Frinton she left to be near an invalid sister in Devon and she died there on 19 March 1975. `Even in old age she kept her love of children who readily responded to her 27


friendship. She was in fact a real "Mr. Chips" to whom it has been sad to say goodbye. From quiet homes and first beginning, Out to the undiscovered ends, There's nothing worth the wear of winning, But laughter and the love of friends.'

LADY GWENDOLINE MOBERLY (née) GARDNER

G

WEN GARDNER came up to St. Hugh's in 1912 from Bradford Girls' Grammar School, and in 1915 she gained a Second Class in the School of Modern History. Those who were up with her remember her as a real asset to our College life, one who made great friends and kept them—a warm, vivid personality. From St. Hugh's she went to teach History at the Frances Holland School in London; then, in 1922, she was appointed Headmistress of King's School, Warwick. However, after one term there, she became engaged to Professor W. H. Moberley who, when at Lincoln College, used to coach several students from St. Hugh's (of which his aunt was Principal). He had moved to Birmingham to become Professor of Philosophy, and it was not very long before he found his way to Warwick. At the end of her second term there she married him and at the end of her third left the school—to its very great regret. Walter, after being Principal of University College, Exeter (as it was then), became Vice-Chancellor of Manchester University and later Chairman of the University Grants Committee. He was already a D.Litt. and had been awarded the D.S.O. for his war services. To these were added G.B.E. and K.C.B. Gwen was a wonderful partner and she enjoyed his honours as much as, or even more than he did! After he retired they were given a Grace and Favour residence in a tower of Windsor Castle and there, as well as in her former homes, her friends will remember her as a charming and generous hostess. But not only did she share her husband's work, she also undertook much herself. She was a member of St. Hugh's College Council for fifteen years and, in 1933 as a new member, she proposed the Toast to the College at the Gaudy Dinner; she was also a member of the Council of Westfield College, London, and, in 195o, its Vice-Chairman. She was a Governor of Huyton College for several years and did splendid work as Chairman of the Godolphin and Latymer School. She was interested in Settlement work and became Chairman of Bishop Creighton House Settlement, London, and there she is still remembered with gratitude. She was interested, too, in Church work, and served on several committees including the Central Council for Women's Church Work, and the S.C.M. Religious Book Club Publications Committee. From 1954-5 she was Chairman of the Girls' Diocesan Association. She died in Oxford on 31 October 1975 and her funeral service was held in Christ Church Cathedral. She leaves four sons. Shortly before her death her second son, John, was made Ambassador to Jordan. Gwen knew that but did not know that he was awarded a C.M.G. in the New Year's Honours. O. M. P. 28


JANE MERVYN NEWNHAM, O.B.E.

M

ERVYN NEWNHAM came up to St. Hugh's in 1919 to read for the Honours School of Modern History and on going down, in 1923, she joined the staff of Clifton High School where she was an inspired teacher of history—an 'Old Girl' who remembers her arrival there has written that every history lesson was a thrill. Guiding, however, which had been a voluntary activity to her both as a girl and as a Guider on the staff, eventually claimed her life interest. When she had qualified as a Trainer she travelled in that capacity to South Africa and later to Rhodesia and represented the U.K. at the World Conference in America in 1948. She was resident Guider-in-Charge at the National Training Centre at Lyndhurst from 1937 to 1945 and had the care of badly handicapped members from Merseyside during the worst bombing period. She inspired many hundreds of Guiders from this country and from overseas with the value of Guiding. When she left Foxlease she held a succession of Headquarters' appointments as Training Adviser. In the County of Sussex she was Division Commissioner for Hove and later County Commissioner for Sussex. Her last appointment at Headquarters was as Chairman of the Religious Advisory Panel through which contact was kept with the representatives of all religious authorities—all Christian denominations and the Jewish faith. In 1968 she was awarded the O.B.E. for her work for the Guide Movement. She faced a long illness, during which she lost the use of her voice, with great courage and dignity. DOROTHEA POWELL

ARRANGEMENTS FOR CONTACTING MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION HE Committee is considering the feasibility of establishing a liaison service to keep Members who might feel themselves isolated through T illness, old-age, bereavement, etc., in touch, both with College and with fellow Members. The Editor of the Chronicle would therefore be pleased to hear from volunteers (ideally from many different parts of the country) who would allow their names, addresses, and telephone number to be printed in the Chronicle, so that Members in the neighbourhood could contact them in emergency. The Committee would remind Members that in January 1942 Miss Gwyer ended her 'Letter' with these words: 'May we be spared to continue helping each other to rise to opportunity and to strengthen one another in time of loss. I believe that members know that at such times neither they nor those who belong to them are forgotten here.'

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR POSTGRADUATE WORK MHE B.F.U.W. and the I.F.U.W. offer each year for competition amongst 1 members certain Scholarships and Fellowships that enable the holders to undertake research work abroad, mostly for an academic year, or occasionally for a shorter period to complete a piece of work; there is also available each year a Scholarship at Crosby Hall, the B.F.U.W.'s Club House in London. Particulars may be obtained from: The Secretary, British Federation of University Women, Crosby Hall, Cheyne Walk, London, S.W. 3.

FORM OF BEQUEST HE College is sometimes asked by Senior Members or their solicitors to suggest the wording to be used when making a bequest to the College: for T guidance we suggest the following: I give and bequeath (specify the property) to the Principal and Fellows of St. Hugh's College, Oxford, to be dealt with or disposed of for the purposes of the College as the said Principal and Fellows may think fit. The receipt of the Treasurer or proper Officer of the said College shall be a sufficient discharge to my Executors.
