QUEENS' COLLEGE 1955-1956

THE COLLEGE APPEAL: INTERIM REPORT The College Appeal was launched by the President on 16 June 1956. Now, only nine months later, the Governing Body is able to report with gratitude the very notable initial success of the Appeal. Donations, and covenanted donations, now stand at £37,600. And this encouraging figure has been achieved by the generosity of only a quarter of the total n umber of members of the College. For this reason the Governing Body already feels confident th.at all, or nearly all, the £100,000, which is the target of the Appeal, will be subscribed. We are accordingly already engaged on the architectural problems of the new building. These need long and careful consideration, and we are seeking the best advice. .But by this time next year we hope to have already approved design and plans. .By the beginning of the academical year 1960-1 at the latest we hope that the new building will be occupied. All members of the College will wish to have a permanent record of this benefaction, which promises to be the largest which the College has received in its long history. We therefore print: a first list of subscribers below. This number of the College Record repeats the Appeal. If we have not yet received your subscription you will find some spare donation and covenant forms provided in this envelope. We ask you to make early use of them so that your name can be added to the list of benefactors of the College when we print the second list of subscribers next year.
THE APPEAL ~ eens' has long ago ceased to be a small College. Mor · vcr, .in common with most other Cambridge colleges, we lrnvc ]iad to increase the number of our undergraduates and research students since the War. In order to keep pace with this growth and maintain our reputation in the University we have at the same time substantially increased the number of our Fellows. But there remains the problem of accommodation for the larger number of men; we need more College rooms. We have partly met this 2
need, at a considerable expense, by converting most of the sets in Friar's Building into bed-sitting rooms; but to meet it fully the Governing Body believe that a new building is urgently necessary. It will cost not less than £100,000 . To finance this project and to ensure that the general capital position of the College remains sound we have decided to issue an appeal to all member.s of the College. One of our greatest assets in the period just before the Second World War was that with the completion of the Fisher Building we were able to give all our undergraduate members two years of residence in their own rooms in College. We are convinced that our greatest immediate need is to return to this standard. We wish to make it clear that we are not preparing for a further permanen t increase in the number of undergraduates; our concern is to accommoclate our present members as we think they ought to be accommodated. Two years ofresidence in College can at present only be provided by compulsory sharing of sets. Most of these sets are extremely unsuitable for this purpose. But even if we had many sets suitable for sharing, the Governing Body would still be concerned to end compulsory sharing at the earliest opportunity. That system undermines the educational advantages of residence in College. Full freedom for private study, concentration and work, for separate and individual development and social life-thes e are privileges and advantages which an undergraduate cannot have unless he has his own room to himself. These opportunities many members of the College have had the great good fortune to enjoy in the past. We now ask them to help us to provide the same opportunities for their successors. In comparison with the other colleges in Cambridg e the College is not well endowed. Our income from investments is £15,800 per annum, in a scale ranging from £146,400 per annum for the wealthiest college to £10,860 per annum for the poorest college. Only three of the men's colleges have smaller investment incomes than ours, and the average investment income is £44,000 per annum. Every member of the College benefits during his residence from the College endowments. But if the Governing Body had to sink a large part of the College capital in a new building, our annual income would be greatly reduced and future 3
m1.dergraduates would lose benefits which their predecessors enjoyed. Indeed, very few colleges nowadays can afford to build, without a successful appeal to the generosity of their well-wishers. While we hope for donations of three, four or even five :figures, we are well aware that not many members of the ollege will be able to subscribe on that scale in the present 111:mcial conditions. But there are over four thousand living ~ ecns' men, and a small sum from each of them would soon put th. · Appeal Fund a long way towards the target of£ 100,000. And in particular we hope that every one who is able to do so will make a seven-year covenant for as large a sum as he can affotcl · by this means he will increase the value of his subscription considrn1bly. We have already taken the step of employing an ar hit:c t to prepare plans for a new building as a southerly extcnsi n of the western end of Friar's. The building would contain :ib ut fifty bed-sitting rooms. The cost would be at least £100,000, :md the building cannot be erected unless this sum is raised. £ 100,000 is a large sum to ask for. But it will provide an endowmcn from which all future members of the College will benefit, and b ·ncfit in most important ways. We appeal, and we feel that we may appeal with confideucc, to all members of the College to subscribe, and to subscribe generously. They may be sure that their contributions will be assisting in a project of vital importance for the future of the College. J. A. VENN, President J. A. RAMSAY C. T. Woon R. G. D. LAFFAN C.

THE SOCIETY The President and Mrs Venn celebrated their Golden Wedding in April 1956. In offering their wannest congratulations, members of the College will also wish to take the opportunity to express their gratitude for all that Dr and Mrs Venn have meant together in the life of the College. Professor Bailey spent a sabbatical year visiting Australia and Asia, where he also delivered a number of lectures. We congratulate Mr and Mrs Trevaskis on the birth of a son. Mr Deakin was present, by special invitation, at the ceremony of inauguration of the Dominion of Ghana. Mr Hagenbuch is Senior Proctor for the year 1956--7. Dr Holdgate has resigned his Research Fellowship on his appointment to a lectureship in the University of Manchester. Dr Haszeldine has been appointed Assistant Director of Research in the Department of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry. We congratulate Mrs Haszeldine and him on the birth of a son. Dr J.E. Baldwin (1949) has been elected to a Research Fellowship.
REPORT ON THE FABRIC Wartime and the first five following years were difficult for the guardians of ancient buildings. Even minor repairs required licences, the best quality paints weFe unobtainable, and the unavoidable neglect of maintenance could only be remedied by heavy expenditure. Since that period, most things within the College have been put mto good order, and, certainly in. the case of the Fabric, no news is now good news. It has been possible to lacquer much of the :fine eighteenthcentury brass door furniture and to restore the hexagonal lamps outside the main gate, at the same time replacing gas mantles by electric bulbs. Railings have been overhauled and painted and the drainage system has been improved. An electric lift from kitchen to Erasmus Room facilitates the service of meals there. Efficient shutters, which can he opened only when the lift lies stationary 15
opposite them, quite prohibit the exploration which is said occasionally to have occurred. Some romance may have been sacrificed to convenience, but we still have ample evidence of the tiny studies for Fellows and the great dormitories of Old Court; and plastic emulsion need not discourage the imagination.

THE UNITED CLUES
President: Dr G. P. McCullagh. Treasurer: Mr J. R. Trevask:is. Vice-President: I. F. C. S. Clayre. Hon. Secretary: J. H.P. Allan. Junior Treasurer: M. Storr. THE BOAT CLUB
Captain: C. A. Y. Shephard. Vice-Captain: J. B. Chaplin. Secretary: I. D. Anderson. Assistant Secretary: G. E. Gilchrist.
The year 1955-6 opened quietly after the success of the Ladies Plate crew the term before. The Light IV was beaten in 1ts second race by Trinity Hall, the eventual winners. At the end of term the Fairbairn. VIII slipped from second to twelfth place. Perhaps there was some excuse for this, for four of our better oarsmen were rowing in the University Trial VIIIs. In the Lent Term the First VIIL rowing well together after much hard training earlier, made four bumps and so won their oars. During the Easter Vacation Ian Welsh (QEeens' Captain) rowed at five in the Cambridge crew which beat Oxford by one and a half lengths. Training for the Mays showed that QEeens' again had a fast crew. During the races the First VIII was unlucky not to bump Trinity Hall on the second night. However it did mak.e two bumps, and, in finishing third on the river, is placed as high as ~eens' has ever been. In the lower divisions the Third and Fifth VIlis won their oars. At Marlow Regatta. the First VIII came second, in the final of the Grand Challenge Cup, to Thames. Our IV won the Town Cup after rowing seven races that day-three in the last hour. Entering for the 'Grand' at Henley meant that for success we would have to improve upon our previous performances. In fact, in our first race we were blown into the booms by a sudden gust of wind. This was a most unfortunate end to what would otherwise have been a successful year. However, our Captain compensated for this by captaining the Empire and Olympic Garnes Crews.

•I
RUGBY UNION FOOTBALL
Captain: J.P. Sanders. Secretary; J. S. Crozier. Committee Member: B. Blackwell. The new season found us with several Full and Half-colours still up, and with quite a good selection of Freshmen. We began very well,. with successive First XV wins in the League against Clare, Caius and Trinity Hall and with what appeared to be a very strong side. It was thought that we had an excellent chance of being top of the First Division. Unfortunately, however, we were disappointed, as we lost form considerably, and were then beaten by Emmanuel, St John's and St Catharine's. However, an exceUent recovery was made against Christ's, and we were perhaps unlucky to lose to this team, the League winners, by two penalty goals after a very tough fight. With strength on the wings, our weakness, contrary to expectation, was mainly in the pack. This is partly explained by the pleasing fact that we have two forwards in the University side and three in the LX Club. We should have a very strong scrum for the Coppers, and our prospects in this competition are good. A most encouraging factor in the Michadmas Term was the greaJt success of the lower teams, which is undoubtedly a sign of a healthy and strong club. The Second XV gave a very good account of themselves.. Appearing for the first time ever in the Second Division, and playing on the whole good Rugby and with considerable keenness, they won several hard matches in which they defeated some strong college first XVs and drew with a powerful Pembroke side. The Tmrd XV had its usual run of victories, and was only rarely beaten. An interesting feature this season has been the revival of the Q!!eries XV which, of course, has quite a long history in the College. It is intended that this should be a 'social side', and that Full and Half-colours should be debarred from membership. Playing very enthusiastic rugger, it has lost only one of its seven matches.
23
ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL
Secretary: J. 0. Crosse. Ct1ptain: J. A. Howard. Committee Member: H. R. Fish. Because of the absence ofl. Lewis, P. Wigley was elected Captain for the Lent Term 1956. In the first round of Cuppers we beat Magdalene 3-2 after extra time. In the second round we were drawn against Selwyn who, after a hard first half, eventually proved too strong for us, winning 6-3. In the Michaelmas Term the team soon settled down and became top of the Second Division with maximum points, 61 goals being scored. This success is partly due to the large number of Freshmen wishing to play football- a good omen for the future. H. R. Fish was again invited to play for the University against Oxford. J. Brett played regularly for the Falcons, and B. P. Smith, K. G. Hambleton and T. S. Buchanan also made appearances. HOCKEY
Secretary: R. R. A. Knight. Captain: P. A. R Millac. Committee Member: D. D. C. Belch.amber. Having beaten Christ's in the Cuppers 3- I, the team was ultimately knocked out 3-0 by Pembroke, the eventual runners-up. At Easter the team went to the Folkestone Hockey Festival, where, having acclimatized. themselves to the more robust nature of club hockey and the faster pitches of Folkestone, they settled down to play their best hockey of the season. J. I. Gartside, the only player to be elected to the Wanderers in the 1955-6 season, scored 16 goals in six matches when on tour with them. It became obvious after losing J. F. Cunningham, a Freshman, to the University that the 1956-7 problem was going to be lack of forwards. A complete reshuffle of the team, in which two of last year's halves and a back each moved up a line, was necessary before the team became capable ofscoring goals. The changes were 24
justified by convincing victories over Jesus,. Pembroke and Clare, but defeats by Trinity Hall, St John's and Emmanuel and a draw with Magdalene make the League position uncertain with two games to play. Though the Second XI have not remained undefeated in the League for the third year running, the Third XI have yet to be beaten and the Fourth XI, a new team formed this year, are reported to have had enjoyable matches with Addenbrooke's Hospital and Newnham.
CRICKET
Secretary : J. N. Watson.. Captain: _p. J. C. Dymoke-Marr. Committee Member: D. D. C. Belchamber. The year 1956 was a very successful season for Qgeens' although the weather was not always kind. The side acquitted itself well, being beaten in only one College game. When the side was at full strength, the batting was formidable, and C. M. Clapham, D. D. C. Belchamber, J. N. Watson, and A. E. Checksfield all made many runs. B. C. Richards, ¡the Captain, bowled his leg spinners.;well, and was ably supported by the opening bowlers P. J.C. Dymoke-Marr andJ. N. Watson, and the left-arm slow bowling of D. Hanson. The season was concluded with a successful tour in Denmark. Ofthe four games played.,.three were won and the other drawn, and the hospitality afforded by our excellent. Eight regular members oflast year's XI are hosts still up, so the prospects for the coming season are bright. G. Goonesena was again a promment member ofthe University side. He won his third Blue, and is to Captain the sicle this year. Two Fr~hmen, G. W. Cook of Dulwich, and P. I. Pieris from Ceylon, ,both played several times for the University side during the season, with some success, and it is hoped that they will provide Q!!eens' with two more 'Blues' in 1957.

ATHLETIC CLUB
President: J. W. Lethbridge. Secretary: C. M. Clapham. ¡ Committee Member: B. J. Stoodley. The frost ofthe Lent Term 19 56 attacked the track at Fenners and reduced the competitions to the University Trials only. J. U. Shearn was subsequently invited to run in the three miles against Oxford at White City. The College welcomed several promising Freshmen and with their substantial aid finished third in the intercollege field events competition and sixth in the inter-college relays. J. Lawrence was elected Captain of Cambridge University Hare and Hounds Club and was winner of the cross.-conntty Coppers. OEeens' reputation, built up over the last four years, as repeated winners of cross-country Cuppers and League table, was lost when we dropped to fourth position. Despite set-backs caused by the weather the Club has-maintained its wonderful spirit and the little athletics possible has been thoroughly well supported, and, more important, much enjoyed. LAWN TENNIS
Captain: A. C. C. Hedge. Secretary: P. F. Newton-King. Cammittee Member: I. J. Forsyth. ~eens' tennis was not impressive last year; after several good seasons, there was a shortage of talent. The First VI lost to everyone in the First Division except Trinity, and we were relegated. The Second VI did well in the Fourth Division and won about half their matches. The Club congratulates Bryan Smith, who won the University Freshmen's Tournament, and went on to obtain a Full Blue. Unfortunately, owing to the University's claims upon him, we were seldom able to have him playing for the College. In Cuppers, both singles and doubles, we went down to the eventual winners, and the doubles pair, A. C. C. Hedge and D. Simmonds, did very well to reach the semi-fina1s before being beaten by Peterhouse.
26
RUGBY FIVES
Secretary: J. Murrell.
Captain: G. S. Hathorn.
We had a good, well-balanced team and were unlucky to lose narrowly to St John's in the first round of the Cuppers. There are great hopes for next year, when all the team will still be up, for considerable promise was shown during the season. ETON FIVES
Capt~in: J. A. Howard. Secretary: N. Rutherford. It is clifficult to organize Eton Fives in the College, as most players have calls to major sports and consequently find it hard to be available on any given day_ Nevertheless, several games have been played against other colleges by mutual arrangement between pans. In February D. S. W. Lee played for the University against Oxford. He has now gone down and the Club must look among the Freshmen for hope of recognition at University standard. SWIMMING
Captain: R. W. G. Miles.
Secretary : G. E. Hemmings.
~eens' entered a team in the relay and water-polo Coppers. In the free-style relay they secured sixth place and in the medley relay, fifth place. The water-polo Coppers had to be cancelled because of rowing and examinations. 13. D. Emery (Old Blue) played for the University against Oxford in the water-polo, and R. W. G. Miles swam in the backstroke. SQUASH RACQUETS
Captain: B. P. Smith.
Secretary: C. P.R. L. Slater.
There are between fifty and sixty keen squash players ID: the College. Four teams play each week in the inter-college League matches: we are noted for our enthusiasm rather than our skill.
27
Facilities for squash in the College are among the best in Cambrid.ge: the courts now have an international touch with the arrival of a new door-hinge from West Germany. The College has continued its annual matches with Imperial College, London, losing this autumn by 3-2. This loss was made up when we beat R.A.F. Waterbeach 5-0 and the R.A.F. College, Cran.well, 4-1. In Cuppers last year we reached the semi-finals, losing to Clare, the eventual winners. Last year's Captain, Tony Checksfield, played for the Ganders against Oxford. Bryan Smith, our Captain this year, is the University Secretary; he again won his match when Cambridge beat Oxford in November. One of this year's Freshmen, John Ramsden, was runner-up in the University Freshmen's Tournament, and should make a strong bid for a place in the University side next year.
RIFLE CLUB
Captain: R. A. Cumming. Six members of the College shot regularly in the University Rifle Clubs during the Michaelmas Term (five in C.U.R.A., and four in C. U.S.B.C.). There have been no inter-college competitions, but the greatest individual success has been that of C. T. S. Belk. He won three of the four C. U.R.A. cups competed. for this last term, including the Caldwell club championship cup which he won by a large margin. The other C. U.R.A. cup was won by R. A. Cumming. Cumming and Belk are shooting in the University revolver team and also the First VIII of the small-bore team. D. J. T. Miller has also shot in the small-bore First VIII, and he and L. Douglas shoot regularly for the Second VIII. The inter-college competitions take place in the Lent and Easter Terms, and we have a very good chance of being well placed in all of them.
28
CHESS
President: M. J. F. Palmer.
Secretary: J. Murrell.
The chess team had a much better season last year, finishing third in the Town League, and .first among the competing colleges. A 'B' team was entered for the Cuppers, but had an undistinguished record. R. C. Kennedy finished equal third in the University toumament.
TABLE TENNIS Captain: N. M. Dor.
Secretary: J. M . B. Duncan.
The most notable "feature oflast season was a wealth of players of moderate ability, but there was a lack of those up to the standard of the First Division. The Club again fielded five teams, and, of these, four played in the top three divisions, in which we are equalled only by Selwyn. Of these, all but the Fourth team finished in the top half of their respective leagues, and our Fifth team, in the Sixth Division, narrowly missed promotion; unfortun.atdy our First team was unable to keep its place in the First Division, and was rdegated to the Second. In the Cuppers, we scored a victory over Magdalene in the first round, but were beaten by Emmanud in the second .
.BADMINTON Captain: I. L. Parker.
Secretary: D. F. R. Dingle.
This was a year of much achievement: the Second VI gained promotion to the Third Division without losing a match; the First VI finished second to St John's in the First Division; the Club was called upon to provide two Half-Blues, P. G. Smith and B. C. Richards, the University Captain; and finally Q!!eens' beat StJohn's in the first ofthe Coppers competitions in the Lent Term.
GOLF
Secretary: J. P. Sanders. ¡
Captain: D. W. R. Irons.
In the Carr Cup, our sole representative, P.H. Burleigh, played very well to reach the quarter-finals before losing to an Old Blue after a very close match. During the year P.H. Burleigh has played for the University and D. W.R. Irons has occasionally played for the Stymies. SAINT BERNARD SOCIETY
President: C. J. C. Baron. Vice-President: T. D. Ross. Secretary: J. M Hiles. The pattern of alternate debate and argument seems to have become established. 'Argument' is proving very popular, possibly because of its :informality. Our supporters form a large and balanced cross-section of the College, although, unfortunately, they never come all together. We tried baiting Freshmen with Girtonians in our first debate, and later debated 'China', 'Cambridge Education', and 'Industrial Unrest'. We have argued about 'Music, sacred and profane', •McNaghten Rules', 'Religion and Darwinism', and even 'Argument ' .
SAINT MARGARET SOCIETY
Vice-President: E. C. Hart.
Secretary: I. B. Lawrence.
The Society has been very active during the past two terms. Concerts in Chapel have included performances of Brahms's Song of Destiny, Hancl.el's Organ Concerto in G minor, Arnold's Lmulate Dominum, Handel's Dettingen Te Deum, and Anerio' s Requiem. Sunday evening concerts in the music room have been numerous and well! attencl.ed, and taflcs have been given on 'Musique Concrete' and 'Honegger and the Dramatic Oratorio'. The weekly organ recitals have been well attended and are being continued in the Lent Term; an innovation is a series of Tuesday 30
lunch-time instrumental recitals to be held in the music room during the Lent Term. The May Week Concert was particularly successful; the audience appreciated the light vein of some of the programme, which consisted of Songs for Male Voice Chorus, a Sonata for Piano Duet by Mozart, some modem part songs for mixed chorus, Cesar Franck's Sonata for Violin and Piano, and ' Seven Diversions' for Percussion, Two Violins, Clarinet and Piano, by Peter Dickinson. ATHLETIC DISTINCTIONS The Boat Club Blue: I. W. Welsh. Trial Caps: I. F. C. S. Clayre, J. L. H. Ward. Clayre has been selected as stroke of the University Boat for 1957. L W.

President: A. C. ]. Manley. Vice-President: P. P. D. Fearon. Secretary: R. D. Smith. Junior Treasurer: J. Goodrich. Committee Members: R. G. Baylis, D. St J. Reeves. Musical Director: Dr J. W. L. .Beament. Senior Treasurer: Dr E. A. Maxwell. The Michaelmas Term saw the birth of a new venture for 'The Bats', when in preparation for the Lent Term musical play a Smoking Concert was hdd. At this members of the Society amused each other with original sketches and compositions. At the end of the term He Who Gets Slapped, a sombre and symbolic play by Leonid Andreyev, was presented in the Fitzpatrick Hall. B. R. Cleave was the producer, and as in Billy Budd the previous year, he favoured an arena stage, again greatly suited to the tense and intimate character of the drama. D. W. Strahan played the title-role, and an exciting setting was designed by R. J. Todd. The production received high praise as being the most satisfying seen in Cambridge during the term. Prairie Tale in the Lent Term had more than a hint of Cinderella with a strongly W estem setting. Dr Beament wrote the music and much of the dialogue, and A. Cooklin made additions to the latter. The producer was H. C. Bur1e, and both cast and audience derived much enjoyment from its light-heartedness. 32
In May Week, B. R. Cleave produced Henry the Fourth, Part Two in Cloister Court. The Tudor Lodge and dull red brick of the lower comer provided an effective contrast for court and country scenes. A balance between the comedy and history in the play was sought, and emphasis was laid on the spectacle and pageantry of the latter. Rain often threatened, but the play was well-attended and enthusiastically received. The competence of the many secondary actors in this production is proof of the prosperity of the Society in talent and enthusiasm. MALLETS C LUB
Master of the Queens' Mallets: M. Storr. A Mallets Club was formed at the end of the Easter Term, and immediately proved popular. The set has been placed on the lawn in front of the squash courts. The only difficulty facing us now is the formation of local rules: are worm-casts a natural hazard, and can a player deflect his ball off the peach tree and on to the post? However~ there is a great deal of enthusiasm for this most gracious of sports, and although the dose season is now upon us, the keenest croquet players are still observing strict training.
DINNER IN THE NORTH-WEST The sixth Annual Dinner for past members of the College resident in the North-West was held at the Grand Hotel, Manchester, on Thursday, 5 April 1956, when fifty-seven members of the College were present. The guests ofhonowr were Mr Laff'an and Mr Gilbert Harding. The Toast of the College was proposed by Mr Desmond Bailey, and both Mr Laffan and Mr Harding spoke in reply. The Bishop of Warrington presided. The next Dinner has been postponed until 8 November 1957, in view of petrol rationing, and will he held m. Liverpool.
