EDITOR 1971-72: J.M. NAISBY

HALL PHOTOGRAPH will have noted, the general photograph of members of the Hall which has regularly formed the frontispiece of the Magazine since the issue of 193 l has this year been replaced by a photograph of the freshmen admitted in Michaelmas Term 197!. The reason for this change is that, with the growth of numbers since the war and the multiplicity of distractions in the summer term, the general College Group taken then has become increasingly unrepresentative. Last year, for example, considerably fewer than half the junior members of the Hall appeared in it. After careful thought it has been decided that a series of freshmen's photographs, although even these cannot be one hundred per cent complete, will over the years provide a far more representative record of the membership of the Hall. The photograph is customarily taken after the matticulation ceremony in Michaelmas Term.

AS QUICK-EYED READERS

AN HONORARY FELLOWSHIP with great satisfaction the election in Trinity Term of Sir Denis Arthur Hepworth Wright, G.C.M.G., to an Honorary Fellowship. After going down from the Hall in 1932, Sir Denis worked for several years with Messrs Gallagher and Co., the tobacco manufacturers, but with the outbreak of war in 1939 became Vice-Consul (for economic warfare work) at H.M. Consulate, Constantza, Roumania. Since then he has had a career of outstanding distinction in the Foreign Service. His special gifts were recognized when he was appointed Charge d' affaires, Teheran, on the resumption of diplomatic relations with Iran in 1953· With periods as Assistant Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, he was Ambassador to Ethiopia 1959-62, and Ambassador to Iran l963-7r.

His tenure of the latter position, at a time of critical importance in the relations of Great Britain with Iran, was marked with signal success, and was a record in length for this century. Since his retirement from the Foreign Service in 1971 his abilities and experience have been increasingly drawn upon, and he has (among other things) been appointed Director of The Chartered Bank, of The Standard and Chartered Banking Group, and of The Shell Transport and Trading Co. Ltd., and in Oxford has been elected to Senior Associate Membership of the Governing Body of St Antony' s · College for two years.

AULARIANS HAVE NOTED

EMERITUS FELLOW HONOURED welcomes the publication of Balzac and the Nineteenth Century (Leicester University Press: £6.oo), a Festschrift in honour of Professor Herbert J. Hunt, Emeritus Fellow of the Hall and Fellow and Tutor 1927-44. This handsome volume contains thirty studies in French literature by pupils, friends and colleagues of Dr Hunt, preceded by a personal sketch of his career and influence by the Principal and a select bibliography of his works by the late Professor Constance B. West. Part I contains essays which collectively represent a contribution of considerable originality to Balzac studies, a field in which Dr Hunt has distinguished himself; and Part II essays of no less originality and value (including one by Dr Hw1t' s successor at the Hall, Dr R. Fargher) on other nineteenth-century French writers from Constant to Zola. Not the least attractive feature of the book is the lifelike portrait of the scholar whom it honours which forms the frontispiece. On the afternoon of 6 July an informal party consisting of some forty scholars from many lands, Fellows of the Hall and representatives of the Royal Holloway College and the University of Warwick, as well as Mrs Hunt and THE MAGAZINE

3

other members of his family, was held in the Senior Common Room to celebrate the publication. After speeches by the Principal, Professor D. G. Charlton (University of Warwick), and Professor A. R. Pugh (University of New Brunswick), Professor L. J. Austin, Drapers Professor of French at Cambridge, presented the volume to Professor Hunt (who had not himself set eyes upon it until that day). His reply, in which wit, emotion and reminiscence were characteristically combined, crowned a most noteworthy occasion.

A BENEFACTOR HONOURED IT WAS a singularly happy occasion, not only for the family of Sir Isaac Wolfson but for the University and all the Colleges which have benefited from the amazing generosity of the Wolfson Foundation, when, at a special Congregation held on 23 March 1972, the degree of Doctor of Civil Law honoris causa was conferred on Mr Leonard Gordon Wolfson, Trustee of the Foundation and son of Sir Isaac. As the Public Orator pointed out, Mr Wolfson has not only taken a leading part in the planning of the many and varied benefactions, but has frequently been at hand, with all his business acumen, to advise on such matters as builders' contracts.

The Hall was well represented at the degree ceremony, and the Principal was among those invited to the luncheon which followed.

In listing the Colleges whose building projects have been assisted by the Foundation, the Public Orator was particularly felicitous in his mention of St Edmund Hall, drawing attention to 'the wolf's teeth on the skyline' ('dentes lupines caelo aequatos videtis').

A PROFESSOR OF GERMAN in German which the University had established was allocated to the Hall, and in March this year Peter Felix Ganz, M.A. (London and Oxford), Ph.D. (London), was chosen by the electoral board (the representatives of the Hall serving on it were the Principal and Dr R. B. Mitchell) as its first holder, to take up office in October. Professor Ganz, who was born in Mainz and went to school there, took his first degree at King's College, London, and then did post-graduate work in phonetics and general linguistics at University College, London and at the School of Oriental and African Languages, and in Russian at the School of Slavonic and East-European Studies, London. After holding lectureships at The Royal Holloway College, London, and Westfield College, London, from 1949 to 196o, he became Reader in German IN 1971 THE NEW CHAm

4

at Oxford in the latter year, and in 1963 was elected a Professorial Fellow of Hertford College. He has been Visiting Professor at both the University ofErlangen-Niirnberg and the University of Munich.

A master of the whole field of medieval German language and literature, he has published several works offundamental importance, as well as a large number of authoritative articles. The Magazine offers him a warm welcome as a Professorial Fellow of the Hall.

RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS THE MAGAZINE offers congratulations and a warm welcome to two new Research Fellows. In Michaelmas Term 1971 Anthony Knight Gregson, B.Sc., Ph.D. (Melbourne), who earlier in the year had been awarded an I.CJ. Research Fellowship to pursue research in the Oxford Inorganic Chemistry Department, was elected to a Junior Research Fellowship at the Hall. Dr Gregson, who was a pupil at Ballarat Grammar School, had a distinguished undergraduate and graduate career at the University of Melbourne, and has an impressive record of published scientific papers to his credit.

As well as having been a Senior Demonstrator and Resident Chemistry Tutor at Melbourne, he is an accomplished squash player.

He is also an experienced pilot, having been Flight Leader of Berwick Aero Club and a flying member of the Royal Victorian Aero Club. In March this year the Governing Body elected Richard Graham Tait, B.A., to the St Edmund Junior Fellowship as from l October. Mr Tait went to school at Bradfield College, was an Open Scholar of New College 1965-68, and obtained a First in Modern History in the latter year. After two years in publishing, he returned to Oxford in 1970, and since then has been investigating 'The King's Lieutenants in Guyenne, 1580-1610'. He has done some tutoring for New College and Keble College, and has given lectures and held seminars on the history of France at the University of Warwick.

THE LECTURERS MRS CYNTHIA ISABELLE MACDONALD, L. es L. (Paris), was appointed Lecturer in French as from the beginning of Trinity Term. She is well known to several generations of men reading Modern Languages at the Hall, for she has supervised prose classes in French for a number of years.

Dr E.T. Rolls, Lecturer in Psychology, having resigned, Geoffrey David Cumming, D.Phil., B.Sc. (Monash), has been appointed to succeed him as from l October. An Australian, he had a distinguished career in Mathematics, with Psychology as an additional subject, at 5

Monash University, Melbourne, and in 1968 came up to Magdalen College to work for his D.Phil. He has published a number of papers in Psychology, and is at present doing research at the Department of Experimental Psychology.

JOHN SALUSBURY BREWIS IT WAS WITH SADNESS that Aularians noted the death of the Revd J. S. Brewis, M.A., Emeritus Fellow of the Hall and Vice-Principal 1929-37, on l March this year, and their sympathy goes out to his widow, Lady Anne Brewis, and their two sons and two daughters.

Born in 1902, he came up to Hertford College from Eton as an Open Scholar in 1921, and not only obtained a First in Modern History but was President of the J.C.R. and won his half-blue for athletics. His eight years at the Hall, where he was Modern History Tutor as well as Vice-Principal, were singularly happy ones; and, with his attractive mixture of shyness, dry humour and warm understanding, he won the affection of great numbers of Hall men.

As it happened, his father, the greatly loved George Brewis, was Senior Tutor at the same time; and many will recall friendly quips about 'the old Brew' and 'the young Brew'. After leaving the Hall he was for ten years Principal of St Chad's College, Durham, and gave valuable help to the University there as Lecturer in Christian Morals and Church History. Then from 1947 to 1954 he was Archdeacon ofDoncaster, his administrative experience proving extremely useful to the diocese of Sheffield. In 1954 he became Rector of St James'~, Piccadilly, restoring life and a whole variety of activities to a church which had been almost completely destroyed during the war. Already, however, serious illness had laid its hand on him, and since 1966 he had been living in retirement in Hampshire. Even so, he remained to the end an inspiring example of Christian fortitude and cheerfulness. His funeral service was held at Blackmoor Parish Church, and the Hall was appropriately represented by Dr Emden, who had invited him to become a Tutor at the Hall, and

by Mr Cyril Anslow, whom {prior to his joining the domestic staff of the Hall) he, along with the present Principal, had interviewed m 1937¡

TRIBUTES TO ST EDMUND THE PUBLICATION late in 1971 of 'Treasure of Salisbury': St. Edmund of Abingdon, by the Ven. Cecil A. Plaxton, was an event of considerable intere~ t to medievalists, churchmen, and, above all, Aularians. In this little book the Archdeacon of Wiltshire, who had entered the Hall exactly fifty years previously, presents, in an 6

extremely readable form, a portrait of the Hall's patron which is as scholarly as it is attractive. Few people know more about St EdmWld, or have visited the places associated with him more frequently or with a more observant eye, than the author. In successive chapters he traces the scholar-saint's home life and upbringing at Abingdon, his student days at Oxford and Paris and his period as a Regent in Theology at Oxford, his tenure of the treasurership of Salisbury Cathedral, his troubled reign as Archbishop of Canterbury, his last journey to Rome which ended with his death at Soissy, in France, on 16 November 12,p. Dr Emden has contributed a valuable foreword. For the hWldreds of Aularians whose knowledge of St Edmund and his links with the Hall is either sketchy or in need of refurbishing this booklet (Abbey Press, Abingdon: 25p: obtainable through any bookseller) is indispensable reading.

In Trinity Term there appeared in the former Lady Chapel of St Peter's, fixed high up on the east wall, a singularly graceful ·memorial tablet. Under three intersecting circles, symbolizing the Holy Trinity, the inscription reads: 'The University of Oxford/ in its petition/ for the canonisation of/ Master EdmWld of Abingdon / acclaimed his piety / in devoting his lecture fees / to the building of this Chapel I to the honour I of the Blessed Virgin I in the rarish where his Hall lay/ ST EDMUND /was canonised on the 16th December / 1246.' The stone of the tablet is Blue Hernton, it was designed by Mr W. Sharpington, and the sculptor was Mr E. Frith.

The idea of commemorating St EdmWJd in this way, and the wording of the inscription, were Dr Emden' s; and it was he who defrayed the cost.

'COMPLETION' PHASE goes to press, the preparatory work for Phase III of the building programme is about to start, and by the time this issue reaches readers it should be well under way. Phase I, it will be recalled, consisted in the demolition of the Forum Restaurant and parts of the Besse Building, as well as the piling of the site, while Phase II comprised the erection of the Wolfson Dining Hall, the new kitchens and common rooms, and the Kelly and Emden blocks. It also included the transformation of St Peter's and its churchyard into a library and garden. The carrying through of these important works was made possible, first, by the generous gift of £120,000 by the Wolfson FoWJdation, and, secondly, by the truly magnificent response of Aularians and friends of the Hall to the two Appeals of 1962 and 1964. These brought in the gratifying total of approximately £135,000, a sum which compares AS THE MAGAZINE

7

favourably with those raised by similar Oxford and Cambridge colleges. The Hall is deeply conscious of the gratitude it owes to each and all of the numerous contributors.

Phase III is a smaller but absolutely essential operation which will bring the total scheme to completion. It involves the demolition and replacement of the large house on the High Street containing Staircases 9 and ro, and of the ramshackle building connecting that house with the back of the Canterbury Building and containing Staircase II. These staircases, formerly (and justly) known as 'the slums', have been dilapidated and out of use for the past two years . . Their replacement, which will include filling in the yawning gap on the High west of Staircase 8 which was opened so as to allow an entrance for builders' vehicles etc., will provide the Hall with upwards of thirty-five properly equipped rooms, underground bicycle storage, and other facilities, and also two useful, rentyielding shops on the High. In addition it will give grace and distinction both to the High Street frontage and to the small quadrangle west of the new dining hall.

It has been made abundantly clear, by the comments of innumerable old members visiting the Hall or attending reunions, both that the buildings so far constructed meet with great general satisfaction, and that there is an enthusiastic desire that the overall scheme should be completed as soon as is practicable. Encouraged by this, the Governing Body has decided to go ahead with the work, and also, since the original Deeds of Covenant made out for the 1962 and 1964 Appeals have mostly run out, to launch a 'Completion Appeal' for funds to finance Phase III. It is felt that the great majority of those who contributed to the earlier Appeals will be willing to renew their subscriptions, and also that there are now several hundred Aularians of recent vintage who were not in a position to contribute before but who will be eager to collaborate in bringing the programme to a triumphant climax. The Magazine is therefore confident that there will be at least as splendid a response to this Appeal as there was to the previous ones, for in its efforts to maintain and strengthen its position among Oxford colleges the Hall, being virtually unendowed, must rely on the loyalty and affection of its own members.

GIFTS, ETC. THE wARM THANKS of the Hall are due to Dr Emden for a gift of silver spoons, and to the St Edmund Hall Association for generously giving ÂŁ200 towards the Scholarship Fund, ÂŁ80 to supplement the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund, and ÂŁ roo to the Directory sinking fund, as well as for laying aside funds for paying for the Magazine.

8

The Hall is also grateful to M. A. Ritchie (matric. 1949) for the loan of a fine water-colour of the front quadrangle by James Purdy

(d. 1972).

THE CHAPEL THE CHAPEL was re-painted, the woodwork cleaned and polished, and repairs to the cornice carried out, in the autumn of 197!. On the last Sunday of Michaelmas Term a service of carols and special lessons was held and drew a large congregation. The outside preachers at Sunday Evensong were the Revd Professor J. McQuarrie (Christ Church) and the Revd K. A. A. Weston in Michaelmas Term, the Revd Fr Paul Burns (a graduate student at the Hall) and the Revd P. P. Bloy (old member) in Hilary Term, and the Revd J. G. Thornton (St Columba's, Oxford) and the Revd Dr K. W. Noakes (Pusey House) in Trinity Term. The Holy Communion was celebrated in the crypt of St Peter-in-the-East at r.ro p.m. one Thursday in Trinity Term, and again at 6 p.m. on St Peter's Day (29 June). At the latter service there was a large congregation including many members of the combined parish of St Mary's, St Peter's and St Cross.

LIBRARY NOTES a double change took place in the officers administering the Library. Mr J. Hackney, the Fellow who has been Librarian since l January 1966, relinquished office in view of his appointment as Senior Tutor (to be taken up in Hilary Term 1973 on his return from sabbatical leave), and Mr C. J. Wells succeeded him. A special debt of thanks is owed to Mr Hackney, for he (with the Library Committee) has been responsible for the planning, in broad conception and in detail, of the new Library in St Peter's.

At the same time Mr D. F. M. Horsfield, who became Assistant Librarian in the summer of 1966, tendered his resignation on being appointed Librarian of Ruskin College. The Hall is deeply grateful to Mr Horsfield for the excellent work he has put in during the past six years, especially in supervising the difficulties of the transfer to St Peter's from the Besse Building, and in establishing an up-to-date, smooth-working system in the new Library. His successor as Assistant Librarian (she entered on her duties in September) is Mrs S. E. Wemberg-M0ller, a graduate of St Anne's who has previously worked both in the Bodleian and in St Anne's College Library.

During the year the Library has continued to be, in term-time and vacation, a power-house (to all appearances) of industrious study, IN THE LONG VACATION

9

and the number of readers seems, if anything, to have increased.

The memorial given by Dr Emden in honour of St Edmund is mentioned elsewhere in this issue, as are the books presented by Aularian authors to the Aularian section of the Library. In addition valuable gifts of books and periodicals have been made by the following: Mrs]. B. Alton; R. E. Alton; Messrs Challenor, Son and Gardiner; H. E.]. Cowdrey; A. B. Emden; C. F. W. R. Gullick; J. Hackney; D. F. M. Horsfield; L. A. Jackson; D. N. Jones; J. N. D. Kelly; N. R. Ker (two further volun1es from the dispersed parochial library of St Peter's); M. P. Kerford-Byrnes; the Librarian of the Institute of Economics and Statistics, Oxford; W. J. H. Liversidge; M. R. Lobb; A. I. Marsh; E. G. Midgley; V. H. Ridler; A. L. Rowse;]. B. Walmsley; C.]. Wells; M. G. White; E. P. Wilson; R. T. C. Worsley. The list includes two or three ex-undergraduates who, setting a precedent which deserves to be imitated, have on going down presented useful volumes of which they themselves had no further need. To each and all warm thanks are due.

NEW MEDICAL CENTRE deterioration and approaching demolition of Staircase 11, the need for a replacement for the surgery (in any case seriously inadequate by modern standards) on the ground floor has been obvious for some time. During the past spring and summer a completely new medical centre has been constructed to the left of the entrance to the Principal' s Lodgings from the old quadrangle, i.e. in the area formerly occupied by the larders, vegetable room and other offices serving the old kitchens. It consists of a properly equipped consulting room, where the College doctor and nurse can examine patients, a bathroom and toilet, and a bedroom with direct access to these for a patient necessarily confined to bed. This bedroom, when not required as a sick-room, can be alternatively employed as an additional guest-room.

WITH THE RAPID

ACADEMIC DISTINCTIONS who were continuing in residence, were elected in Michaelmas Term 1971 to Honorary Scholarships in view of their having obtained Firsts in Schools the previous summer: G. E. Chandler, D.]. Hughes, E. P. Presland, N. G. Shrive, and R.].

Townsend-Smith. D. J. Hughes has now been elected to a Senior Scholarship at Worcester College.

The Francis Bennion Prizes for 1971 were awarded to (First Prize)

THE FOLLOWING,

10

H. G. Forrest and (Second Prize) S. W. Groom. The essay subject was: 'Consider the part played by the rules of Equity in the development of the law of property in land since 1875.'

In Michaelmas Term H. G. Forrest was awarded the Winter Williams Law Prize, and J. Barnes an Entrance Bursary to the Middle Temple. In Hilary Term Junior Heath Harrison Scholarships were awarded to P. M. Grimsditch (Spanish), C. G. P. Beaven (German), and S. B. Fisher (German). In Trinity Term M. A. S. Blackburn was awarded the Turbutt Prize in Practical Organic Chemistry (first year course). A Carter Prize (divided) was awarded to D. C. Elstub and W. R. Liston for distinguished work in the First Public Examination (Geography).

The following obtained Firsts in Honour Moderations: ]. A. Sultoon (Mathematics); M. E. Hawthorne (Physics, Mathematics, and Engineering); D. C. Elstub and W. R. Liston (Geography).

The following obtained Firsts in Final Honour Schools: N. B. Evans and H. G. Forrest (Jurisprudence); P. E. Dobsen and K. M. Dodd (Geography); B. H. Gottfried (P.P.E.); C. D. Corcoran (English). P. E. Dobsen was awarded the Herbertson Memorial Prize.

COLLEGE COMMITTEE met regularly twice a term during 1971-72.

P. Butler, as ].C.R. President, succeeded P. St.]. Parker as an ex officio member in Hilary Term, and the new junior members elected for Trinity Term and the following two terms were W. N. David, M. P. Dunn, and]. W. Stead. The new M.C.R. President, T. P. C. Stibbs, is also an ex officio member.

The matters discussed during Michaelmas Term 1971 included the tightening of measures to secure prompt payment of battels, the importance of giving early warning to men likely to lose open awards at the annual reallocation and of prompt notification to the unfortunate, the provision of social amenities, proposals for an endof-term ].C.R. party, criticism of the D.E.S. consultative document on student union finance, and a preliminary discussion of 'coresidence'. The Committee agreed to ask the Governing Body to give due consideration to this matter at the earliest appropriate moment. As regard the consultative document, the Committee was informed that the letter which the Principal had written on the subject to the Vice-Chancellor was broadly in agreement with its ideas. In Hilary Term, as a result of pressure from a ].C.R. meeting, the question of the representation ofjunior members on the Governing Body was raised. The reply of the Governing Body was that it THE COLLEGE COMMITTEE

II

had very recently, and after careful consideration, rejected the proposal; it considered the methods of communication already established adequate. Both in Hilary Term and in Trinity Term there was much discussion, as a result of a motion passed by a strong majority in the J.C.R., of plans to establish a 'third-world' scholarship, to be :financed by contributions from members of the J.C.R. The Governing Body being sympathetic in principle, a committee was appointed to work out practical proposals, and a scheme was submitted to the Governing Body at the end of the summer term.

As has become a melancholy regular feature of the agenda for Trinity Term, proposals for raising fees and other charges in view of rising costs were discussed, and reluctantly accepted, with certain modifications, as a painful necessity. Among more cheerful themes debated during the year were the procurement of an M.C.R. cat (not pursued), the improvement of the furnishings of the J.C.R. (useful progress made), and the possibility of placing garden seats in the area outside the J.C.R. and of making a better use of the raised quadrangle above the kitchens and J.C.R. BOWLING ON NOT TO BE OUTDONE by the athletic achievements of the undergraduates, the Hall staff has been winning glittering successes at bowls over the past two or three years. In 1969 D. Filer (Manciple) was runner-up in the Singles of the Oxford University Staff InterCollegiate Bowls Competition, while D. Filer and T. Jones (scout) won the Pairs, and C. Anslow (Principal's Butler), P. James (Steward), D. Filer and T. Jones triumphed in the Rinks. In 1970 P. James won the Singles, with D. Filer as runner-up. The winners of the Pairs were D. Filer and T. Jones, and of the Rinks P. James, C. Anslow, D. Filer, and T. Jones. That was a year of all-round success. In 1971 D. Filer was runner-up in the Singles, P. James and D. Filer won the Pairs, and C. Anslow, P. James, D. Filer, and T. Jones won the Rinks, making that a year of almost equal triumph.

As the Magazine goes to press this year (September), the omens are not quite so bright, but D. Filer and C. Anslow reached the finals for the Pairs, and all four reached the finals for the Rinks.

D. Filer is a member of the East Oxford Bowls Club, and a past Captain and President of the Club; he has been bowling for eight years, and has been selected to play for the county on twelve occasions. P. James is a member of the City and County Bowls Club, and has been bowling for three years; he says he has forsaken Football and Cricket (but not Squash, as Dr Mitchell knows) for bowls. C. Anslow only recently joined the East Oxford Bowls Club, 12

and has only been bowling for three seasons, but is said to make an excellent bowler (especially now that he owns his own set of bowls). T. Jones is a member of the Pressed Steel Bowls Club, and has been bowling for more than a quarter of a century; he is reported to be a very reliable skip to bowl with, and to have a very steady temperament.

GRAHAM HAMILTON TRAVEL AWARDS the income of the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund was supplemented by a generous donation of £80 from the St Edmund Hall Association. As a result travel grants, varying from £6 to £12 a person, were made to the following, who were planning expeditions in the long vacation which seemed to involve the appropriate degree of 'enterprise, endurance, and initiative': P. K. James and J. Poyser (climbing in the Dolomites, including camping and some severe climbs); C. E. J. S. McDonaugh (mountain-walking in Switzerland, sleeping in mountain huts); N. F. Strawbridge (walking tour in Norway, with some work on a farm); D. M. Lauder and G. W. J. Smith (climbing, including ice-climbing, in Switzerland); R. G.

ONCE AGAIN

SUMMER BALL 1972 THE l6TH JUNE was one of those exquisite evenings that we saw so rarely this summer. Champagne and beautifully prepared food; lovely women and handsome men; a floodlit St Peter's; a string quartet; the smell of burning charcoal; laughter; spontaneous endof-term pleasure: all mingled and interacted to make the night pass as though it hadn't begun. One just didn't have time to do or see everything.

Fairport Convention was at the top of the bill; there was fine jazz from the Meisterswingers; Afro-Rock that caught the mind from Danta; heavier material from Black Ginger, Alan Bown and Brewer's Droop. Global Village and Trucking Co. dominated the marquee with a tremendous outpouring of original song and rock.

The 'Ancient Men' Maypole Dancers, the Highland bagpiper and the bugler brought the wilting couples back into action in the early

13

hours. There was the Original etc. revue, ballroom dancing, discotheques, films, shish-kebabs, mirror balls, and the unforgettable Macrobiotic food freaks. Everyone seemed to think different performances were the best. The next morning, amidst the debris that had been the Ball, those few of the Committee left on their feet sent the last champagne cork trying to toast everyone involved.

G.A. (One of the handsome men) ].C.R. AND M.C.R. OFFICERS THE J.C.R. OFFICERS elected at the end of Michaelmas Term 1971 to hold office until the end of Michaelmas Term 1972 were: PresidentP.

THE LONDON DINNER 1972 THE LONDON DINNER was held, as usual, on the second Tuesday in January (the nth) at Simpson's-in-the-Strand. Did we detect a subtle change in Roger Farrand' s advertising technique this year? Gone were the threats of dire consequences for failing to attend with which we were faced last year. This time it was the promise of a bargain, a financial breakthrough no less. At last the London Dinner had broken the ÂŁ2 barrier. There was another, novel inducement: the chance of meeting all those contemporaries with whom we swop Christmas cards and always mean to ring next time in Town.

Each year fewer are able to resist these blandishments, and below is a list of those present: GUEST: The Principal Fellows E. G. Midgley C. F. W. R. Gullick J. C. B. Gosling D. I. Scargill 1922 A. C. Corlett E. P. Brice 1924 ]. B. Allan B

After dinner there were speeches from Claude Hayes, President of the Association, and from the Principal. The former spoke of the work of the Association in sponsoring careers advice, and a fuller account of this activity will be found in the Minutes of the Annual General Meeting printed below. The Principal described the achievements of the Hall, noting that the Blues' success at Twickenham had been due in no small measure to Aularians who provided about half the team. Another notable success had been that of the College domestic staff in winning the inter-collegiate cup for bowls.

MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the St Edmund Hall Association was held at Simpson's-in-the-Strand, London, on Tuesday, I I January 1972, at 6 p.m. Mr C. J. Hayes (the President) was in the Chair.

The minutes of the previous A.G.M., being published in the Hall Magazine, were taken as read. They were duly approved and signed.

The President touched briefly on the initial results of the careers advice questionnaire, but said that this would be the subject of further discussion later in the Agenda.

In his report, the Hon. Treasurer referred to the Accounts as detailed in the Magazine, and enlarged on them. Both income and interest were slightly up on the previous year, and with overall expenditure showing a decrease, there was a surplus of income over expenditure of £103. Assets Employed also showed an increase of some £200 over the previous period. All Allocations had been paid; £40 were being held in reserve for the Sports Grant Fund. Expenditure for the year included: THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

£200 for the Scholarship Fund; £80 for the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund ; £100 for the Directory Fund; £473 for the Magazine.

There were no questions or comments on the Accounts, and with Mr D. K. Daniels proposing, and Mr D. Day seconding, they were passed unanimously. Summing up, the President felt that the Allocations were very necessary and well worth continuing.

Moving to the Elections, as there had been no other nominations, Messrs Fisher, Midgley, Day and Groves were all re-elected. The Hon. Treasurer, Hon. Auditor and Hon. Secretary were also reelected for a further term of office.

19

The President then raised the topic of other Association activities.

First, Mr Graham's suggestion of helping Hall undergraduates with careers advice had been vigorously pursued. Over two hundred positive offers of help had already been received and were currently being processed at the Hall. It was hoped that undergraduates would take full advantage of this facility. Second, the idea of another Garden Party would be warmly welcomed by all members. It was suggested that the date should be Saturday, 24 June, 1972, prior to the Summer Reunion Dinner at the Hall.

Mr Graham expressed his gratitude to the Executive Committee for following up his suggestion regarding careers advice. It was obvious that there was a great nucleus of people intensely interested in the Hall, and he felt that capital should be made of this. The President thanked Mr Graham for his initial idea, and expressed the hope that this careers advice facility would become an accepted and valuable part of Hall life.

There being no other business, the meeting closed at 6.15 p.m. ]. G. FRENCH Hon. Secretary

THE REUNION JUNE 1971 was hardly memorable for its sunshine. But the sun did

break through on a couple of occasions; one of these coincided with the Hall Ball, the other with the Garden Party and Old Members' Reunion held, this year, on the 24th ofJune.

It had been made fairly obvious to the Fellows that a Garden Party would be welcomed this year and so a Garden Party there was. The kitchen staff, as always, rose to the occasion and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, not least the children whom it was a pleasure to see in large numbers. The Dean's hammock was soon discovered and proved a source of great merriment until it finally collapsed under the weight of Aularian offspring. One Fellow was heard to mutter, 'We must provide donkeys another year'. Well, why not?

After Chapel, and sherry in the Quad, the reunion dinner took place in the new Hall, a record 160 Aularians sitting down to the feast. Seventeen of the Fellows were present, in addition to the Principal and Dr Emden, another record and surely proof-if it is needed-of the close links between the Governing Body and the St Edmund Hall Association.

In his speech the Principal drew attention to the fact that 'the classes' of both 1919 and 1971 were represented, a range of over half a century. He spoke of the achievements of old members, several having distinguished themselves in the diplomatic service, and then of the Hall. We all regret the temporary ill-fortunes of the Boat Club but there seems to be little wrong with the other clubs and societies. Of particular note during the year have been the successes which the Hall has achieved in art, drama and music.

The records of these societies are more fully reported elsewhere in the Magazine. Amongst the academic achievements has been the winning of three Heath Harrison Scholarships. Finally the Principal described the scheme for redeveloping 'the slums' which, despite their picturesque qualities, are literally falling down. There is to be a new Appeal, and we are certain that this will be as well supported by old members as was the last which built us our present accommodation.

The President of the St Edmund Hall Association, Claude Hayes, thanked the Principal and Fellows for the Garden Party and observed that the Principal was now the senior head of an Oxford College.

He spoke of the gifts which the Association had made to the Hall in recent years, to the scholarship and sports fund, to the furnishing of the New Buildings and to the cost of the Magazine. It is easy to forget or to take for granted these gifts and those of us who work 21

in the College are grateful for the continuing support, in so many ways, of the Association.

Finally, a few words from Dr Emden, an appropriate climax to the day.

Below is a list of the names of those present at the Remiion.

OBITUARIES of the following members of the Hall have been noted with deep regret:

THE DEATHS

The Revd Llewellyn Percy Burnett, M.A., died on 21May1970 at the age of 62. He came up to the Hall from Manchester Grammar School in 1927, read Theology, and then trained for the ministry at Cuddesdon. Ordained in the Manchester diocese in 1931, he spent his working life as a priest in Lancashire parishes except for 1940-46, when he served as Chaplain to the Forces. He was Vicar successively of Christ Church, Colne, St John, Farnworth, St Mary, Wandleworth, and Walmsley, near Bolton. From 1966 he was Rural Dean of Walmsley.

Frances Frederick Clemence, M.A., died on 28 February 1972 at the age of 52. A pupil of Royal Masonic School, Bushey, he came up to the Hall as an Exhibitioner in English in 1938, and after serving throughout the entire war (being mentioned twice in despatches) took his degree with Class II honours in English in 1947· Among other things, he was President of the Essay Society. His subsequent career was spent first as a schoolmaster, then in educational administration, and for the last seven years as Lecturer in English at Bingley College of Education. In all these roles his varied gifts found a satisfying and successful outlet, and his death, which came at such an early age and quite unexpectedly, was a sad blow to many, especially to his wife and two sons (one of whom was at the Hall at the time).

Maurice Charles English, M.A., died on 29 May 1971 at the age of 56. He came up to the Hall from Colfe' s Grammar School, Lewisham, in 1934, was an active member of the Boat Club, and took a Second in History in 1937· During the war he was commissioned in the Gurkha Regiment, and from 1949 to 1960 served in the Ministry of Education for Eastern Nigeria, first as Principal of a government secondary school and teacher training college, and later as Inspector of Secondary Schools. His interest in and affection for Nigeria bore fruit in An Outline of Nigerian History, published in 1959· Since 1962 he had been engaged in administrative work in London. He left a widow and three children.

Norman George Fisher, M.A., died on l February 1972 at the age of 62. An Exhibitioner of the Hall from 1929 to 1932, he read Modem History, was a fine Rugby player who played for Rich42

mond and won his Greyhound cap, and was also President of the J.C.R. and President of the Diogenes Club. For a number of years he worked in educational administration, serving in the R.A.E.C. during the war and being Commandant of the Army School of Education, and being Chief Education Officer for Manchester 194955. Then from 1955 to 1961 he was Principal of the Staff College of the National Coal Board. Later he turned to publishing, and from 1968 was Chairman of Butterworth and Co. (Publishers) Ltd. A man of unusually wide interests and great versatility, he was Chairman of the North Regional Advisory Council of the BBC 1939-55, a member of the Committee on Proceedings before Examining Magistrates in 1957, a Governor of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre from 1963, and a member of the Drama Committee of the British Council. In 1949 he published a valuable study Our Schools, and in the last two years of his life a couple of novels. A man as charming, witty and sensitive as he was talented, he was a member of the Executive Committee of the St Edmund Hall Association, and the President was among those attending his memorial service in St Bride's, Fleet Street. The sympathy of Aularians goes out to his widow, Jenny, and his three sons, all of whom were at the Hall.

The Revd Richard Horton, M.A., B.A. (Durham), died in August 1971 at Bromfield Vicarage, Aspatria, diocese of Carlisle.

After taking honours in Theology at Durham in 193 l and moving to Ripon Hall, he joined the Hall in that year and obtained honours in P.P.E. in 1934¡ After serving his tide at Holy Trinity, Formby, he was Vicar of Wortley-de-Leeds 1935-39, and subsequently held livings at St John the Divine, Liverpool (1939-41), Great Barrington with Taynton and Little Barrington (1945-46), Great Rissington (1946-48), Richard's Castle (1948-58), Blackrod (1958-60), and Greystoke (1960-61). He was Vicar of Bromfield, Aspatria, from 1961 until his death.

The Revd Canon Walter William Seymour March, M.A., B.D., died on 25 April 1972 at the age of 62. Coming up to the Hall from Brighton College in 1929 as an Exhibitioner, he read Greats and then Theology, obtaining Seconds in both. He was also President of the Musical Society and Chairman of the Liddon Society. After being ordained in the Winchester diocese, he served curacies at Boscombe and then Brighton, and for a year (1939-40) was resident chaplain and private secretary to Dr George Bell, the great Bishop of Chichester. During the war he was Chaplain to the Forces (E.C.), and from 1945 to 1948 was Sub-Warden to King's College Hostel, London. Between 1948 and 1971 he was Vicar successively of 43

Goring and Eastbourne, and for the last two years of his life was Treasurer of Chichester Cathedral and Vicar of Chichester-he had been Canon and Prebendary of Bury from 1962. A man of wide reading and considerable learning, he published three small volumes which combined scholarship with spiritual insight. His death, at a relatively early age so soon after his appointment to one of the great offices in the cathedral, was a serious blow both to the Chapter and to the diocese of Chichester.

Donald Peter Wallace Pegg, M.A., came up to the Hall from Epsom College in 1942 and (being unfit for military service) took honours in Modem History in 1945¡ With his quiet strength of character and great considerateness, he was one of those few who maintained continuity and tradition in the diminished and transitory J.C.R. of the war-time years. Always resolved to be a schoolmaster, he had a successful career first as assistant master and resident house tutor at Exeter School (1946-48), then as assistant master at Ipswich School from 1948 until his death. From 1957 to 1971 he was Housemaster of Holden House. A loyal supporter of the school chapel, he had as other interests walking on Exmoor and observing wild life, gardening, and riding-particularly following three-day events.

He was also active in arranging historical visits for his pupils, and each year usually organized a small group of middle school boys doing a project involving work in the County Record Office. His last visit to the Hall was with his wife (to whom the Magazine offers its sincere sympathy) for the Garden Party in June 1970, when he marvelled at the success with which the new buildings married with the old.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE BOAT CLUB Captain: M. J. THORNE Treasurer: C. M. POTTER Secretary: P. G. HARPER

nns YEAR the Boat Club has managed to extend its activities beyond the University events of Torpids and Summer Eights.

The first non-University event of the season came at the end of Hilary Term when the first crew went to Reading for the Head of the River Race. Not having entered this race last year the crew started well back which meant it was not pushed as hard as it might have been. However, finishing fifty or so places higher than they started after a smooth, powerful row served to boost morale after a rather disastrous week of racing in Torpids. This year, as last, the crew was fated from the first day when it had a collision with B.N.C. before the race, damaging the boat and giving one of the crew an involuntary swimming lesson. After this the crew was rather shaken and did well not to fall much further in the following three days.

For the first time in the last thirty years or so a new Eight was officially launched. The College was generous enough to provide champagne at the launching party and all who came found it an enjoyable occasion, especially those who stayed long enough to see the unplanned launching of the Captain of Boats. The Boat itself is a very fine Eight built by George Harris of Oxford and named the 'William Smith' after our present boatman who has served the Hall for over twenty-five years.

As well as training for Eights Week, various members of the crew competed at open Regattas during Trinity Term. Our greatest success was at Wallingford when a novice four brought back the first 'pots' the Hall has seen for a few years. Less successful, but nevertheless pleasant, excursions were also had at Hereford and Oxford City.

Alas, in Eights Week the crew never really settled down to rowing its optimum and went down a total of three places. A crab, by courtesy of one of the crew, lost us a certain bump on St John's and enabled the Eight behind to gain another place.

This year there have been creditable performances by novices.

In Michaelmas Term they won the Godstow Long Distance Race and came second, after a fateful shipwreck, in Christ Church Regatta.

Two of the Novice Eight, C. G. McGrail and G. N. Booth, were 45

selected for the first crew and were also appointed to the posts of Captain and Vice-Captain respectively for next season.

THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB Cuppers Captain: S. H. BEAMISH League Captain: D. S. J. RUSZALA MICHAELMAS TERM from what one can only describe as an unfortunate match against Jesus and an unlucky one against lowly Exeter, D. S. J. Ruszala ably led his team to a comfortable position as runners-up in the First Division.

Later in the term the team reached its peak-ruthlessly disposing of University and the much-fancied Worcester and Corpus Christi.

RECOVERING

HILARY TERM S. H. Beamish proved to be another inspiring Captain, and Cuppers victory was attained yet again-although the final against Jesus (22-7) was, as anticipated, far from a walkover.

In addition, an important victory was gained over St Catharine's, Cambridge, by 16-3-a team with an indisputable claim to being the best Cambridge College.

Both Captains fostered an excellent spirit within the Club, and we approach next season with confidence.

Colours were awarded to: S. H. Beamish, C. R. Evans, T. J. Donovan, A. Jenkins, B. J. L. Lowe, B. F. W. Cottrell, D. W. Mackenzie, B. D. Mead, P. M. E. Temporal, R. M. C. McGrath, B. R. Spaven, L. A. Jackson, P.A. Lever.

Next term's Committee: Captain: M. Stallworthy; Secretaries: D. W. Mackenzie, B. F. W. Cottrell.

THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: P.R. EMMOTT League Captain: M. J. BIRKS Secretary: M. J. DUBRANT 2nd XI Captain: W. N. DAVID went one better than in the 1970--71 season by winning the Cuppers double. The lst XI, under the aggressive leadership of

THE HALL

46

P. R. Emmott, won Cuppers by beating The Queen's College 1-0 in a dour, and at times rowdy, final. It was the Hall's tenth consecutive Cuppers triumph; it was achieved without conceding a goal, and yet without really playing to their full potential. The Cuppers triumph reflects well on the six freshmen in the Ist XI squad, who made the loss of five of last year's Blues less devastating than might have been expected. The side indeed was a good mixture of youth and experience, and with only P. R. Emmott and G.]. Coates definitely absent from next year's line-up, the future appears to be bright. The Ist XI had a good league season as well, finishing third after losing in a championship-deciding last match against the eventual champions, Magdalen College.

The 2nd XI beat University College 3-2 in a good final to win Cuppers for the first time. They maintained their league position by finishing fourth, and ended the championship on a rousing note by soundly beating the champions, Queen's. The 2nd XI played some excellent soccer, and would have done well against many a Ist XL There are many good players left for next season, and perhaps now the time is about right for a total monopoly of University soccer.

Officers for next season: Captain: M. J. BIRKS Secretary: M. R. CHAPLIN wd XI Captain: S. M. JoNEs M.J.D.

THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: P. M. GRIMSDITCH Secretary: J. L. MALLETT THE HERALDING of a new league system in last year's hockey report proved to be rather premature. As it is the old system still prevails and it is from this and from numerous difficulties of team-raising that our lack of success largely springs: our descent from Division I to Division 2 can be expected to continue unless a great deal more enthusiasm is shown in the Hall towards hockey. At the moment we are in the unenviable position of being able for a Cuppers match to field a side containing three Blues and two Greyhounds on the one hand, and in a league match suffering a crushing defeat at the hands of a less skilful, but more enthusiastic and more cohesive team. Our success in reaching the Cuppers final (although we did in fact lose this) was thus equalled by our singular lack ofit in league

47

fixtures. At the moment hockey is in danger of becoming the only minority sport in the Hall which needs a majority to provide a regular and hard-working team. The obvious paradox here has produced the present situation in which a captain is rarely sure of having a team, and never certain it will be one worthy of the name.

However, talented freshmen did emerge, amongst them a full International and one Junior International, and deserved colours were awarded to:J. C. Fazackerley, A. T. Stockley, R.J. Ashby, P. N. H. Foot and A. A. Radcliffe.

Officers for next term are: Captain: P. V. COPLEY Secretary: P. N. H. FOOT J.L.M.

THE ATHLETICS CLUB

President: A. ScARFE Athletics Secretary: C. ]. EYRE Cross Country Secretary: G. M. ALDRIDGE THE CROSS COUNTRY SEASON was a little unfortunate, the run of success ending with seconds in both Cup and League. A. T. Moore, however, won the Varsity match for the second year.

On the track we were a little more successful, winning the Relay Cup in Hilary Term by half a point, on a very close finish to the last event. The Athletics Cup, sadly, stays in residence at St Catherine' s, as there the last event went to them in another close finish.

K. R. Raine, A. T. Moore and P. M. E. Temporal (the new President of the University Athletics Club) represented O.U.A.C. against Cambridge.

C.J.E.

THE CRICKET CLUB

Captain: W. B. TRAVERS Secretary: F. G. HANSOM FROM A RESULTS point of view, this season's record for Teddy Hall does make rather depressing reading. Not only in club cricket but also in Cuppers we have failed, being knocked out in the latter by Keble in the third round, because of rather indifferent batting. It should be strongly urged that for next season the fixtures should not be too congested, since the number of those in college who are prepared to play cricket regularly seems to have declined. The weather, perhaps, has been another mitigating factor, and with 48

third-year people understandably unwilling to play, and 'ties players regularly unavailable, trying to recruit eleven people has been very difficult on occasions.

On the credit side those who have played might have enjoyed it a little more than they would admit, and people have tended to overlook our resounding victory over St Peter's. Also G. Hutchinson perhaps should be singled out for his continued efforts. Our thanks should also go to Frank Grace for scoring, to Norman Morris, the Parks Groundsman, for providing the kit, and grudgingly to Martin White, who on the one occasion he condescended to umpire made two quite appalling decisions. Next year's Captain has yet to be decided upon, and next year's Secretaries will be C. S. H. Townsend and P. N. H . Foot.

F.G.H.

THE TENNIS CLUB Captain: I. WILSON Secretary: B. R. PARKHURST MY THANKS to all those who helped to make this an enjoyable season despite the appalling weather and the last-minute cancellations. Out of 10 matches played we won 5-or, to put it another way, out of 10 matches played we only lost 5. The Hall does have a considerable number of talented players, but it is unfortunate that they can never be persuaded to play all at the same time (except, perhaps, in Cuppers). So, I wish next year's Secretary more luck at rounding up the temperamental geniuses and reluctant heroes hidden away amongst the ranks of Hall men.

Next year's Secretary: A. P. MARTEL B.R.P. THE BADMINTON CLUB Captain: R. C. WILSON WHILST MORE PEOPLE seemed interested in Badminton this year, there was still an appalling shortage of real talent. This, coupled with non-availability, produced a poor season for the team, and, in fact, marginal relegation from Division 3 to Division 4. Undoubtedly the lack of practice facilities is largely to blame for this situation.

In the Cuppers we were slightly more successful, progressing one round further than last year. We beat Corpus, but lost in the second round, despite the presence of our Blues captain, R. C. Wilson.

THE CROQUET CLUB Captain: G. M. M. DALZELL-PAYNE Secretary: P. H. R.AsPIN Technical Consultant: unnecessary ONCE AGAIN the Hall croquet team had an unbeaten season, although this was principally due to the fact that no matches were actually played. One fixture was arranged against St Hilda's, but the inefficiency of the opposition meant its eventual cancellation. Nevertheless there is still great interest within the Club. There are now over thirty members, and it is to be hoped that between them next year's Captain and Secretary will be able to secure a lucrative fixture list.

THE TABLE TENNIS CLUB Captain: W. G. WALLIS Secretary: A. R. CRASTON THIS YEAR the Hall was able to enter four teams for the University Table Tennis League-a feat equalled by only one other College.

A large influx of freshmen of a high standard meant that the teams were never short of players. Throughout the year, a high standard of play was maintained. The first team finished near the top of Division I ; the second team did very well in Division 3, and the third and fourth teams have probably won promotion from Division 5 and 7 respectively. Altogether some 40 or so matches were played during the year with very few defeats. We look forward to meeting stronger teams next year.

A.R.C.

THE CHESS CLUB that the Chess Club has purchased a new board and set of chess pieces. Unfortunately your editor has received no report of the Club's games and cannot therefore judge the impact of this investment. It is believed in some quarters that the team is refusing to play anywhere but in Iceland, and since television cameras have been banned from their games, there is a continuing air of mystery about the Club's activities.

A. PAWN RUMOUR HAS IT

50

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: G.]. McGRATH Secretary: R. H. ROBINSON has seen the revival of College societies, and the Hearne Society has been no exception. Indeed it has enjoyed one of its most successful years ever, reflected in the large audience which came in Hilary to listen to Dr Hans Schenk of Wolfson College present a typically thoughtful paper on Nietzsche. Dr Penry Williams of New College delivered the opening paper of Michaelmas, a fascinating examination of Tudor methods of communication.

Miss Rachel Wall of St Hugh's spoke on Japanese politics following the First ¡world War. David Kiernan of the M.C.R. presented a paper on the English copper industry at the end of the seventeenth century. The year closed with the Annual Dinner, at which the President's guest was Dr V. H. H. Green, Sub-Rector of Lincoln.

Dr Green spoke briefly and amusingly to the Society, on 'the veracity of the Historian'. His talk marked the end of a highly successful Presidential year for G.]. McGrath.

R.H.R. THE LAST YEAR

THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: P. S. WIGHT Secretary: J. M. NAISBY President-elect: E. J. MEYNELL OVER THE PAST YEAR the John Oldham Society has established itself as one of the major University dramatic societies. Three controversial plays have been staged, one of which was the Society's first run at the Playhouse for many years.

Our Cuppers entry, 'Pax' by Christopher Logue, directed by Richard Jacobs, also reached the Playhouse in the final round of that competition. The play was praised by the Judges as being by far the most successful of several entries depending on a ritual style for their effect.

Also during Michaelmas Term the Society staged a production of the 'Ubu' plays, by Alfred Jarry, in the Old Dining Hall, and it is believed to be the first time that all three plays have been presented together in England. During the week-long run of the plays the Old Dining Hall saw sights which it had never seen before-Ev Meynell (alias Pa Ubu) extracting his own intestines-an exceedingly thin gentleman from Brasenose being flushed down a lavatorythe Dean being threatened with a razor and Mike Rohan encased in plaster, wearing a fez, seducing Pa Ubu's diminutive and forocious

SI

wife (Alice Blakeway). The plays, directed by Frank Spooner and Wilf Judd, proved an outstanding success, playing to large and enthusiastic audiences, and were described by the Chairman of the English Faculty Board, and independently by one of the Governors of the Oxford Prison, as 'Shit ! but well-cooked'.

The Hilary Term production was in complete contrast: 'Saved'

by Edward Bond, a play which deals so openly with the nature of violence that the original production was banned as recently as 1965.

Because Bond's play 'Early Morning' was given a disappointing production at the Playhouse the previous week, audiences for 'Saved' were smaller than hoped for. The production by Frank Spooner, made effective use of the intimate atmosphere of the Old Dining Hall, and while all performances were of a high standard, special mention may be made of those of Louise Everett as Pam, WilfJudd as Len, and Peter Malin as Harry.

Trinity Term saw the premiere of 'And What about Me?', a new play by Nigel Pinn, who is a former member of the College. The play deals primarily with a complex relationship involving homosexuality, and this aspect of the play led to discussion in some quarters as to the questions of suitability and reputation. But the sensitivity and dignity of the writing were matched throughout by the acting and the play was again successful. Production was by Eric Presland, and the leading part was taken by Mick Wallis of Hertford College, a veteran of the previous two productions.

In addition to acknowledging with gratitude the help it has received from many quarters throughout this year, the Society wishes to give special thanks to the Dean and to its Senior Member, Mr Reg Alton, for their enthusiastic support and assistance.

THE MUSIC SOCIETY

President: C.R. WILSON Secretary: A. P. MARTEL Treasurer: S. G. BRYANT proverbial phoenix arose from the ashes to new life, so the dormant (for it was surely not deceased) Music Society burgeoned and blossomed in Hilary Term. This inevitable renaissance was inspired and nurtured by the indefatigable President, Christopher Wilson, who, aided and abetted by the like-minded

JUST AS THE

52

thespians, managed some moderate successes in lunch-hour recitals, but whose chief delight was in the superb performance given by Janet Craxton (oboe) and Alan Richardson (piano) in sixth week.

Undaunted by such mercenary considerations as financial deficits, the Society pressed on in Trinity Term, determined to re-instate the Hall's once-proud musical tradition. Concerts in the University Church (a baroque recital by the Aularian Chamber Orchestra) and in the Old Dining Hall (an adventurous Jazz and Bach evening, given by Peter Ind and Bernard Cash) were staged, and once again a guest performance was arranged. Unfortunately, due to a lastminute accident to the harpsichordist, the Galliard Harpsichord Trio were w1able to come as advertised. However, the show went on with Stephen Preston (flute) and Colin Tilney (harpsichord) giving a fine display of virtuoso baroque music.

Needless to say, the Society intends to carry on in its endeavour and calls upon all Hall men for continued and increased support in the coming year.

A.P.M.

Postscript: The Music Society is in urgent need of a replacement piano for the new Music Room. If any former member of the Hall has such an instrument, Arthur Marsh, Senior Treasurer of Amalgamated Clubs, would be very glad to know about it.

THE MUSIC CLUB President: C. R. WILSON Secretary: S. G. BRYANT A HALL NEWCOMER, the Music Club was formed last Michaelmas Term from a mainly fresher element, and has met every week since its origin. Meetings are held every Monday and involve the very informal enjoyment and discussion of classical gramophone records.

Over the three terms, these have covered most major composers from Monteverdi to the twentieth century, including a great variety . of works as well as standard classics such as Beethoven's ninth.

Apart from collaboration with The Music Society over the organisation of concerts, the highlight of the Club's first year was the most enjoyable dinner held in Trinity Term.

THE ART COMMITTEE

President: E. J.

MEYNELL

IN LAST YEAR' s REPORT

the Art Committee President commented on the increasing number of exhibitions in the Hall and suggested 'that they (the exhibitions) show that the Hall is as aware and active in cultural matters as it is in the field of sport'. This year has proved that there is indeed a growing appreciation and concern for art throughout the College. The Art Loan Scheme, started last yearwhich enables members of the College to borrow paintings from the growing Hall collection, to hang in their rooms-has thrived.

The response to this scheme has been so great that the Committee has slightly adapted its policy in favour of buying more smaller pictures, rather than withholding all their money for large and valuable purchases.

We have had two exhibitions this term. The first consisted of etchings by the student artists Antony Kirk, Antony Dufort, and Alexander Beleschenko, which lasted from 23 April to 14 May. Its long run was entirely justified by the enthusiastic response it received -over 40 etchings were sold. It was given an eager write-up by The Oxford Times, and the Art Committee chose eight etchings for the Hall collection, including a series of four delightful studies taken from a Spanish fairy tale which had been very popular.

The second exhibition of the term-paintings by Malcolm Miles and Francis Higby-which ran from 14 May to l June, was much more controversial, and was received by mixed voices of approval and criticism. The J.C.R. suggestions book contains twenty pages of energetic criticism, both for and against the paintings: the violent colours and apparent carelessness of the work were utterly uncompromising, and perhaps many members of the College felt their conceptions of 'art' to be somewhat intimidated. But the liveliness and intensity of the discussions suggest again the awareness and interest that the College is taking in 'cultural' matters, an interest that is being reflected more and more vividly in both the Dramatic and musical activities of the College.
