PRINCIPAL'S REPORT

N

the end of Trinity Term the College said goodbye with regret and gratitude to Dame Kathleen Kenyon, Principal from 1962 to 1973, and wished her every happiness in her retirement to the borders of North Wales, and to a life which we have no doubt will be as active and fruitful as her previous professional years. We hope to welcome her back often in her new capacity as Honorary Fellow of the College.

Miss Gray also retired in Trinity Term 1973 after 38 years as Tutor in Classics, and becomes an Emeritus Fellow.

Both of them are celebrated pictorially for us—Dame Kathleen in Carel Weight's portrait in oils (now hanging in the dining hall) which was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1973, and Miss Gray in a pencil drawing by Michael Noakes, commissioned by her former pupils. There will always be argument about likenesses, but there can be no dispute about the artistic quality of the portraits, or the affectionate recollections and responses they will arouse.

We have to record sadly, but with pride, as we go to press, the death of Barbara Elizabeth Gwyer, Principal of the College from 1924 to 1946, at the age of 93. We shall miss her indomitable presence, but her lasting memorial is the College itself, to the moulding and direction of which she contributed so much and at such a crucial period.

One other Honorary Fellow was elected during the year: Mrs. Helen Suzman, Hon. D.C.L., B.Com. Witwatersrand, Member of the House of Assembly of the Republic of South Africa. We are happy to have her associated with the College among the many other distinguished scholars and women in public life who make up our Honorary Fellows.

We congratulate Miss Kemp on her appointment to a Special Lectureship in the Faculty of History and hope that this will give her the time to add yet more to her outstanding list of publications. Miss Annas, Tutor in Philosophy, was distinguished this year by the award of the George Plimpton Adams Prize at Harvard University for her Ph.D. thesis.

We welcome Mrs. M. S. Butler, who was appointed Probationary Fellow and Tutor in English in Michaelmas Term 1973. Her biography of Maria Edgeworth, published by the Clarendon Press in 1972, has delighted general as well as professional readers.

New lecturers appointed this year include Mr. J. V. Femia of Nuffield College, part-time Lecturer in the Theory of Politics; Dr. B. C. Loughman of University College, part-time Lecturer in Plant Sciences; Dr. K. G. Cox of the Department of Geology and Mineralogy, part-time Lecturer in Geology.

Resignations this year include Mrs. Whitworth, for reasons of health, from her appointment as probationary Fellow and Tutor in French; Dr. Eric Heaton (St. John's), Lecturer in Theology, who has been appointed Dean of Durham; the Revd. G. E. Gorman, and the Head Gardener, Mr. Roger Phipps. The Revd. R. Lloyd, Chaplain of the Dragon School, has agreed to become acting Chaplain for the remainder of the academic year. The restoration of the fountain in the Dell, (financed by a group of Old Students who came up in 1923), the replanting of the terrace and of the Fellows' garden, are the contributions to the College of the Head Gardener during his brief 6

tenure of office. We are indeed sorry to lose someone who has done so much excellent work in so short a time. A Garden Fund has been established, and we hope to continue the tradition that has made the garden such an outstanding part of the College and its life.

74 Woodstock Road has been converted into four self-contained flats; in spite of unfortunate delays and delapidations in the course of this reconstruction, we now hope to be able to benefit by the conversion.

The College is grateful for three benefactions in the year: a legacy of ÂŁ50 from Miss I. I. Smith for the Building Fund; an anonymous gift of L2,000 which has been used to establish a Garden Fund; and a gift of ten Hepplewhite-style chairs from the executors of Mrs. M. M. Burkhardt which the College has donated to the Principal's Lodgings.

Miss J. A. Glover, B.A., formerly commoner of the College, was elected to the Joanna Randall—Maclver Junior Research Fellowship from Michaelmas Term 1973. Miss Glover's production of Cavalli's Rosinda from a score she edited, and which she directed and conducted, was one of the outstanding performances at the Playhouse, and one of the most important Oxford musical occasions of 1973.

Miss Veronica Kerr of Whitehaven Grammar School was in residence as Schoolmistress Student to Trinity Term 1973. She left to the S.C.R. a most ingenious Victorian reading machine which has added much to the entertainment and the appearance of the Common Room.

The year has been a good one for academic results in the College. The number of undergraduates reading for a first degree in residence in Michaelmas Term 1973 was 324. Of these 309 were undergraduates coming straight from school, 7 were qualified for senior status and 8 were classified as mature students. Sixty-one candidates were in residence reading for higher degrees, of whom 29 were Oxford graduates and 32 graduates of other universities.

Of these z6 are candidates for a B.Litt., 7 for a B.Phil., 5 for a B.M., 3 for an M.Sc., 14 for a D.Phil., 3 for Chemistry Pt. II, and 3 for Biochemistry Pt. II. Five graduates of other colleges are taking diplomas; 6 graduates of the College and 4 graduates of other universities are taking the Certificate of Education.

In the Final Honour Schools in 1973, 9 candidates were placed in the First Class, as follows: J. D. Livingstone in Geography, D. V. M. Bishop in Experimental Psychology, V. M. Brennan in Modern Languages, M. A. Game in Physics, B. A. Taylor in Mathematics, C. I. Reynolds in History, J. K. Russell in Chemistry Pt. II, and A. C. Dolphin and V. J. Leggatt in Biochemistry Pt. II. Seventy-three candidates were placed in the Second Class and 12 in the Third; there was one Pass.

In Honour Moderations 4 candidates were placed in the First Class, as follows: A. Brackenbury and A. Marslen-Wilson in English, and M. E. Oliver and S. J. Sworn in Mathematics. Twenty-four candidates were placed in the Second Class, and 6 in the Third.

THE JUNIOR COMMON ROOM, 1973 OLLEGE seems to have had a stormy year in 1973. The political harangue in the Junior Common Room has been a constant feature of J.C.R. meetings. Many undergraduates feel that the J.C.R. should remain apart from national student issues and would not lend support to proposals for a Central Students' Union in Oxford. The vocal and politically conscious minority in St. Hugh's appear to be fighting a losing battle against the stolid majority.

A touch of sadness crept over College toward the end of Trinity Term, despite summer sun and punting, as Dame Kathleen neared the end of her term as Principal of St. Hugh's. We were glad she had been able to give a lecture on 28 May on Jericho, for members of College. So rarely did we have the opportunity to hear about her academic work that this lecture was much appreciated, and everyone enjoyed it very much. The J.C.R. held a farewell party for Dame Kathleen in June and we all wish her happiness in her new home.

Miss Rachel Trickett made her first official speech as Principal before the members of the College on St. Hugh's Night, 13 November. Drawing subtle parallels between A Midsummer Night's Dream and her new position in St. Hugh's, Miss Trickett's speech made a profound impression. We welcome Miss Trickett as Principal and wish her every success in office.

The social aspect of J.C.R. activities has flourished this year. We held a party at Christmas which was, as always, a most enjoyable occasion. Several members of the J.C.R. are taking leading parts in the dramatic world in Oxford, especially 'behind the scenes'. Mary McEntegart continued to be Stage Manager for a large number of productions including The Boy Friend at the Playhouse and the O.U.D.S. Major, Mother Courage. Joyce Hannam played Principal Boy in the Balliol Pantomime.

The J.C.R. Art Committee organized an exhibition of the work of three female undergraduates which was held in the J.C.R. It is hoped to repeat this event annually. Our University Challenge team, whose early successes were reported in last year's Chronicle, managed to reach the quarter finals but lost to Glasgow University in the next round.

The musical tradition in St. Hugh's continues. The St. Hugh's—Keble Music Society gave a concert in Michaelmas Term in addition to the Christmas Carol Service. Also St. Hugh's now provides an overwhelming majority of the membership of the Kodaly Choir, whose performance this term was Elgar's The Music Makers. No wonder the corridors of College, darkened by the electricity economies, resound with singing!

At the beginning of Hilary Term the new J.C.R. Committee came into office with exciting propaganda for the first meeting of the New Year. Punch was served, which encouraged a larger attendance! The J.C.R. will no doubt continue to be beset by political problems as calls for a Central Students' Union increase their fervour. Nevertheless domestic matters remain close to our hearts. After all, the most familiar motion at J.C.R. meetings in recent years has always been a plea to repair the washing machines!

J. LESLEY HANNAM (Vice-president) Games Report. St. Hugh's continues to contribute its fair share of players and officers to the major University sports clubs. Linda Nixon was Captain of Hockey, Claire Wickham Secretary of Hockey and Cricket, Charlotte Moss Treasurer of Cricket, Pam Smith Treasurer of Badminton, and Jennifer Greenwood President of the Women's Boat Club.

Claire Wickham, Barbara Taylor, Linda Nixon, Mary Underhill, and Helen Priday played in the University hockey team which lost narrowly to Cambridge. Mary Underhill played in the University Badminton Team and Jan Chambers was in the swimming team. Barbara Taylor and Linda Nixon played in the University Tennis Team which was unsuccessful against 18

Cambridge. Gwen Lord, Claire Wickham, and Charlotte Moss played in the Cricket Team.

The College Hockey and Tennis Clubs continued to flourish, with regular social matches against men's colleges, but, despite five blues, the hockey team lost to L.M.H. in Cuppers. This year saw the founding of the St. Hugh's Boat Club, due to the enthusiasm of Julia Winterbottom (Captain), Jennifer Greenwood (Secretary), and Judy Bartlett (Treasurer). They now have sixteen members and regular outings arranged. They are making good progress, coached by members of Brasenose Boat Club, and hope to enter a IV in the University Women's Rowing Association IV's Regatta at Cambridge in May. Five members are in the women's 'blue' boat, Jennifer Greenwood, Jane Maggs, Beverely Mather, Julia Winterbottom, and Margaret Lee (cox).

Squash enthusiasts will be sorry to learn that the St. Hugh's Squash Court Fund, launched last year, has become defunct, partly due to lack of support and partly to the rapidly rising cost which any such project would be bound to entail.

LINDA NIXON

THE MIDDLE COMMON ROOM HE St. Hugh's M.C.R. consists of eighty-two members involved in a great variety of academic fields. Sixteen members are taking undergraduate degrees; seven of these are working as Mature Students for their first degrees. The research topics of the Advanced Students range from the disciplines of fairly immediate social usefulness through the traditional humane and scientific subjects to what some misguided people like to call 'irrelevant' fields. In rough figures, we have ten people working for Certificates in Education, five for Bachelors of Medicine, nineteen for degrees in various branches of the social sciences, eighteen in History, English, Classics, and Modern Languages, eight in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, not to mention three Orientalists, two Musicians, and one Theologian. This apparently dull statistical breakdown is of interest not only because it proves how far from being academically one-sided the M.C.R. is; it also gives the encouraging information that our membership is not concerned primarily in the usual `feminine' subjects. For example, in addition to our three theologians (including undergraduates) and five would-be doctors, we have Angeline ElHelou, who is working for a B.Phil. in Management studies.

Another aspect of the M.C.R.'s diversity is that twenty-five members come from countries other than the United Kingdom. It is hardly surprising that several of these people work on topics connected with their homelands. To single out three of them: Blanca Bartosova, a Czech who is well known for her concerts of lute and vocal music, is studying medieval Bohemian music; Olga Palagia, from the University of Athens, is working on Euphranou, an artistic countryman of hers who flourished in the fourth century B.c.; Kathy Burk, one of our American members, is researching into Anglo-American diplomatic relations during the First World War. It is obvious then that a certain amount has to be done to bring together the M.C.R.'s heterogeneous membership and provide a welcome break from

T

19

academic work. The M.C.R. officers hope that the social and cultural events of 1973-4 fulfilled that need satisfactorily.

Early in Trinity Term, a successful (and very noisy) disco was held in the M.C.R. This was followed in ninth week by a champagne and strawberries party which littered the M.C.R. lawn with lots of corks. A somewhat more cosmopolitan affair was the buffet supper to which Queen Elizabeth House invited us. Queen Elizabeth House is a centre for foreign and Commonwealth students, many of them on leave from their jobs, often quite high-powered, in government, and academics. They enjoy the chance to meet the older students of an M.C.R. and to discuss reactions to English life with their fellow foreigners. Their hospitality was returned by an extremely well attended wine and cheese party held this Hilary Term in the Mordan Hall.

Social events in Michaelmas Term were equally varied. It started off with a tea, to which Wadham M.C.R. was invited and came in great numbers.

There was also a Guy Fawkes celebration, complete with fireworks, with B.N.C., and yet another champagne party, with New College. (We felt obliged not to waste the champagne left over from June.) The M.C.R. is grateful to the Vice-Principal and the Dean for the opportunity they gave us at the beginning of the year to meet the undergraduates and each other. We intend to reciprocate later this term with an S.C.R./M.C.R. sherry party.

In October, St. Hugh's and B.N.C. kept up the tradition of a joint trip to Stratford, where we enjoyed seeing As You Like It. The previous term an Egyptian member of the M.C.R., Esmat Allouba, who was then studying for a B.A. in History, gave a most interesting lecture, with slides, on 'Islamic Architecture in Egypt'. Both J.C.R. and M.C.R. members came to this. We are glad that there is a scheme afoot for the M.C.R. and J.C.R. to co-operate further this way in a termly lecture.

In conclusion, we should like to thank Chef for doing so much to make our parties and Guest Nights the successes they have been. It should also be mentioned, while we are on the subject of food, that attendance at the weekly dinner in Hall has stepped up since we were given the option of dining on Tuesday or Friday. These dinners and the sherry which precedes them are one of the main ways in which the M.C.R. is brought together, so we are very pleased by this.

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION OF SENIOR MEMBERS 71HE forty-eighth Annual Meeting of the Association of Senior Members 1 was held in the Mordan Hall on Saturday, 3o June 1973, at 3 p.m., the President, Miss Cowderoy, in the chair. Seventy-four members were present.

The President called on the meeting to stand in memory of those who had died during the year.

The Minutes of 1 July 1972 were signed, and there was no business arising from the Minutes.

1

The President's Report. The President addressed herself first to the Principal, and expressed the Association's pleasure at the appearance of her name in the New Year's Honours List.

The Committee of the A.S.M. had met three times during the year, and a sub-committee of London Members, entrusted with the task of arranging a dinner in London in honour of Dame Kathleen on her retirement, had also met three times: the President thanked them for their work and said that we were looking forward to that occasion, the following weekend.

Following the opinions expressed at the last Annual Meeting, about the value to Members of the Address List, the topic had been discussed further by the Committee, but any decisions on the long-term future of the Address List must rest with the Governing Body.

The President then asked Members to think ahead to the elections next year of Officers and Committee members. The Committee should ideally be representative of all ages, but recently it had been lacking in younger members, and we were asked to bear this in mind when making nominations next summer, and to try and ensure that a few younger members were elected— the duties of a Committee member were really not very onerous.

The President then expressed thanks to Dr. Bradbury as Editor of the Chronicle, and to Mrs. Cockshoot who, as Hon. Secretary, had to keep a watchful eye on the Association throughout the year, and whose continuing care was warmly appreciated.

The College Report. The Governing Body Representative on the A.S.M. Committee, Miss M. Jacobs, began by saying 'Among the many things which have been said by Fellows, S.C.R. and J.C.R., and still remain to be said of the Principal on her retirement, perhaps she will allow me to contribute one thing in this report, that she has this term scored a "first": she is, as far as I know, the first St. Hugh's Principal to be asked by the J.C.R. to give a lecture for the whole College—which she did this term here in the Mordan Hall, a place she looks on with affection as completed within her reign. Dame Kathleen's portrait has been painted by Carel Weight and was exhibited at a party in St. Hugh's on 22 March, and then at the Royal Academy. `Miss Rachel Trickett, Fellow and Tutor in English, has been elected Principal, and takes up her office on I August 1973. `The College has elected to an Honorary Fellowship Mrs. Helen Suzman (B.Com., University of Witwatersrand) who is a member of the House of Assembly of the Republic of South Africa; she was the only member of the Progressive Party to be returned in 197o. An Honorary D.C.L. was conferred on her by the University of Oxford at Encaenia.

`Professor Alexander d'Entreves delivered the Henry Rowlatt Bickley Memorial Lecture for 1973 on Tuesday, 29 May, in the Mordan Hall. His subject was 'New reflections on the history of Italy'. `Miss Kemp has been appointed University Special Lecturer in Modern History. Miss Lunt has been on leave for a year, working in Brussels, and Miss Trickett, Miss Cooper, and Mrs. Green have been on leave during Trinity Term. `The College has elected to a Tutorship in English Literature and Probationary Fellowship, Mrs. Marilyn Butler, M.A., D.Phil., Gamble Research Fellow at St. Hilda's College. Miss Julia Annas has been awarded the George Plimpton Adams Prize at Harvard, for her Philosophy thesis. `Miss Veronica Kerr, a biologist from Whitehaven Grammar School, Cumberland, has been in residence as Schoolmistress Student. `The Elizabeth Wordsworth Junior Research Fellowship has been awarded to Mrs. Christiane Sourvinou-Inwood ; she gave a lecture on 29 May in the Randolph Lecture Room, Ashmolean Museum, on the subject of "The Boston Throne and the religion of Locri Epizephirii". `Miss Jane Glover has been elected to the Joanna Randall-Maclver Junior Research Fellowship, 1973. She has prepared a modern edition of a seventeenth-century Venetian opera, Rosinda, by Cavalli, from the autograph manuscript in Venice, and has conducted this opera, in an English version by Anne Ridler, performed by the O.U. Opera Club at the Playhouse in March, and later in London.'

After giving us various items of news about a number of Senior Members (details of which appear elsewhere in this Chronicle), Miss Jacobs concluded by telling us of a party which was held in honour of members of the staff who had been working for the College for 25 years or more, namely Miss Madge Lucas, Miss Phyllis Danbury, Mrs. Harrowsmith, Mr. and Mrs. Westbrook, and Mrs. Thomas, all of whom received a gift in silver.

Miss Cowderoy thanked Miss Jacobs for her interesting account of College news for the past year.

Resolution. The President then proposed the resolution that the College Secretary, Miss G. A. Easterbrook, be elected an Associate Member of the Association. She was declared elected, and the President welcomed her to the Association and thanked her for the work she did for Senior Members and the help which she gave the Hon. Secretary.

Presentation to Miss Gray. The President then called upon Mrs. Catherine Morda Evans, a former pupil of Miss Gray's and a member of the Committee, to make the presentation of a cheque to Miss Gray. Mrs. Morda Evans, in her tribute, said that `. . . none of us . . . could fail to realize that our tutor was a person of rare intellect and scholarship. This realization has deepened over the years, as we have followed with pride Miss Gray's distinguished career as College Tutor, University Lecturer in Homeric Archaeology, and scholar of worldwide reputation.' Mrs. Morda Evans expressed pleasure at the news that Miss Gray's long association with 'The Lawn' was not to be broken by her retirement, and asked her to accept the cheque, as a token of the great esteem in which we all hold her.

In her reply Miss Gray spoke of the changes which she had seen during her fifty years connection with Oxford, forty of which had been at St. Hugh's.

24

There had been a great improvement in material surroundings and in the position of women in the University. They were no longer regarded patronizingly but on their own merit as individuals; graduates of St. Hugh's could now be found in the S.C.R.'s of other colleges and universities, whereas when Miss Gray first came up this was not so. Miss Gray was very pleased to see so many people that she knew: she felt overwhelmed by the kindness shown to her and thanked the Senior Members very much.

Other Business by leave. (i) The President thought that the meeting should not pass without proper mention of the retirement of the Principal, although Members were aware that a dinner was to be held in London in her honour next Friday. She therefore asked the Hon. Secretary to add a few words on behalf of the Association. Mrs. Cockshoot referred to Dame Kathleen's work as an archaeologist of international repute, as well as to her position as Principal of the College: in particular to the interest she had always shown in the Association. Many people had expressed their enjoyment of the Gaudies and other functions of the Association, and the friendly atmosphere to which they referred was in no small measure due to the lively support and interest of the Principal herself. Mrs. Cockshoot offered her our very best wishes on her retirement and hoped that we should see her at many future meetings of the Association. (ii)We were told that a letter had been received from the College Treasurer informing the A.S.M. that the Governing Body has raised the College M.A. degree fee from £3 to £5, with effect from October next. The fee for A.S.M. membership for those who decided not to take their M.A. degree would also be increased to £5. These fees had remained unchanged since 1963. (iii)Dr. Busbridge, who had visited Miss Gwyer earlier in the day, brought greetings from her to the Association. She also asked whether any member could be of assistance in finding a suitable resident nurse to live at Miss Gwyer's bungalow and help in looking after her.

The meeting was then closed.

THE DINNER IN HONOUR OF DAME KATHLEEN KENYON HE retirement of the Principal, Dame Kathleen Kenyon, was marked by a dinner held in London on Friday, 6 July 1973, by the Association of T Senior Members. One hundred and four Senior Members gathered together at the Rembrandt Hotel, Thurloe Place, that evening: some were very eminent and senior Members, but it was very pleasing also to see so many of the younger generation, who often cannot manage to come to Oxford for Gaudy weekends. The years 1963 and 1964 were particularly well represented.

Before dinner there was ample time and space in the foyer to meet and chat over sherry: the elegance and attractiveness of the dresses was remarked on by quite a number of people, and the menu at dinner was correspondingly grand. In keeping with the fact that so many younger Members were present, 25

the top table had a youthful air about it; apart from the Principal herself, the President of the Association, and the Rt. Hon. Barbara Castle, there were five young graduates, who had gone down only recently.

After dinner and the loyal toast, our President, Miss Brenda Cowderoy, made the opening speech, and thanked Dame Kathleen on behalf of the Association for all that she had done for us during the past few years. In particular she had attended so many functions of the Association, had got to know so many of us, had presided at so many Gaudies and had ensured that our Gaudy dinners were such splendid occasions.

The Rt. Hon. Barbara Castle then made a most entertaining speech, in which she gave the younger Members a fascinating glimpse into the life of the College at the time when she was an undergraduate: the days of chaperones, and of climbing into College undetected after hours (the dons slept lightly in those days, we were assured!). Such reminiscences were not made merely to amuse us, but also to make us realize what great changes in undergraduate life had occurred since then, particularly during Dame Kathleen's time, and how much more flexible and adult the whole atmosphere had become.

Miss Myra Harvey, a final-year medical student, then spoke, on behalf of those who were undergraduates at the College during Dame Kathleen's term as Principal. The opening of both New Building and Wolfson Building during that time was a great achievement, and the resulting improvement in accommodation was very much appreciated. Miss Harvey concluded by presenting Dame Kathleen with a cheque, as a mark of the esteem in which she is held by the Association of Senior Members.

Dame Kathleen then thanked us very much for the gift, and said she was very deeply touched to see how many people had come together on this occasion, so many of whom were not at St. Hugh's during her time there. She felt that some of the achievements with which she had been credited were really the work of the Governing Body as a whole, but certainly it had been most exciting to be involved with the expansion of the College in recent years.

The College had had a few ups and downs in her time but the atmosphere at the moment was a very happy one.

Certainly the atmosphere at the dinner was a happy one also, and we wish Dame Kathleen a long and rewarding retirement.

A LETTER FROM DAME KATHLEEN KENYON

O

UR President has received a letter from Dame Kathleen, from her house at Wrexham, and the following is an extract from that letter: The reason for writing is to tell you what daily pleasure the gift of the Association of Senior Members gives me. As I told you would probably be the case, I used the cheque to buy a carpet for my library here. The mere buying was most exciting, at a warehouse in the City, where thousands of carpets were stacked, and dozens turned over for my inspection. The selected one is a Balikh, 14 foot by i8 foot, mainly dark red, and it looks gorgeous. z6

BARBARA ELIZABETH GWYER

A

MEMORIAL Service for Miss Gwyer was held on Saturday, 16 March 1974, in the College Chapel, which was full to overflowing. The following Address was given by Miss E. A. Francis. `Barbara Gwyer became Principal in June 1924. I had come to the College as Tutor at the beginning of that Trinity Term. There were a good many changes in the composition of the College in the course of the next year. Just before the beginning of Michaelmas Term 1925, Miss Gwyer and I were alone in the Senior Common Room, waiting; I well remember her saying to me, with the sprightliness soon to be familiar to all of us, "well, here we go"— she never looked back. `The next fourteen years, until 1939, were the years when the College "grew up", with a Charter and Statutes like the older colleges. St. Hugh's gained immeasurably in these years from having at its head a person of Barbara Gwyer's independent-mindedness, integrity, and constructive intelligence.

The College did not grow much in these years, but it grew greatly in amenities : The Mary Gray Allen Wing and the Library Wing provided new undergraduate rooms, a pleasant Junior Common Room to replace a poky one, and a handsome Library instead of the cramped Mordan Hall. `The College grew in achievement, too, and produced scholars, administrators, politicians, and writers. It also produced headmistresses, many of them in office now. Barbara guided all this—indeed she led it—with dignity and discrimination. All of us, dons and undergraduates, remember her drive, 30

her tireless energy, her absolute fair-mindedness, and her wit. She hit the nail on the head with remarkable precision, and without rancour, but sometimes with disconcerting frankness and—if she chose—with sharpness. `Barbara Gwyer was liberal-minded: "pink", it was sometimes said. I remember very well her popularity with a group of young left-wing men dons.

One of them (now a distinguished historian) once remarked to me, with some surprise and great pleasure, "She is not at all like the other women Principals, is she ?" `During the war Barabara Gwyer was established in Holywell Manor, with as many undergraduates as could be crowded in there. I found myself again alone with her in the Senior Common Room. In the war years she held the College together, and made it feel a college, though it was scattered in seven different places. She visited its outposts as often as she could, and she even managed, every November, to collect all its undergraduates together to celebrate St. Hugh's Day. I can picture her, as I am sure all those who lived in Holywell Manor can, manning the Porter's Lodge when there was no-one else to do it. I also recall her misery when she had to decide whether we could do without an extra maid, in order to take an extra undergraduate. Things were not easy in the first years after the war, but at least she was happy in being back in College for one year before she retired. `Barbara's handling of portrait painters always seems to me very characteristic of her. She knew the College would want a portrait of her, but she herself did not much want it, though she knew that it was her duty to acquiesce.

So she conceived the happy idea of a group portrait—a conversation piece— and she commissioned Henry Lamb to paint it. His technique was to make a preliminary sketch of each of the people in the group. She faced this dutifully, but with trepidation and even some smothered indignation. She was only half mollified by Henry Lamb's racy gossip about other Oxford figures he was painting at the same time. She was rather more mollified, ten years later, by Andrew Freeth's strategy of feeding her with crossword puzzles, as well as gossip. `What I shall always remember about Barbara Gwyer, and what I am sure other people will remember, is a rare combination of individuality and forgetfulness of self. She did not fear to censure things she thought wrong.

But she never despaired, and she never lost her belief that, with hard work and determination, these things would be overcome. This belief is her legacy to the College and to her friends.'

HELENA CLARA DENEKE ELENA DENEKE came to St. Hugh's as an undergraduate in 1900, and was a Tutor of the College from 1909 to 1913: she was afterwards appointed Bursar and Tutor in German at Lady Margaret Hall. At this time, teaching in Modern Languages was mainly organized through the Taylor Institution and not, as later, through the Modern Language Faculty. In consequence, nearly all undergraduates at the Women's Colleges were directed and taught by Miss Deneke. Her family home at Gunfield was a centre of musical activity and though she herself was less prominent in this, all her pupils received a welcome at the concerts there. She had a very kindly

H

31

nature and all those who were tutored by her appreciated this to the full.

She often preferred to hold her classes in St. Hugh's College, and dined frequently at the High Table. Miss Deneke, in conjunction with professor Fiedler, made a great contribution to the study of German in the University.

However, her talents were by no means confined to the teaching of German or to the life of the University. Among other things she was a Governor of Banbury County School; Chairman of Benenden School Council; Chairman of Holton Park Girls' Grammar School at Wheatley; Chairman of the Oxfordshire Federation of Women's Institutes; and member of the L.E.A. Further Education Committee for Oxfordshire. Her book Grace Hadow was published in 1945, and also a Report on The Women of Germany for the National Council of Social Service. In her late seventies she visited the Saar at the request of the Saarland Government to lecture on Aspects of English Life.

SIR DOUGLAS VEALE IR DOUGLAS VEALE (Registrar of Oxford University, 193o-58) who died at the age of eighty-two on 27 September 1973 was a good friend of St. Hugh's College and was closely connected with its affairs for 21 years.

Mr. Veale (as he then was) was elected a member of the Council of St. Hugh's College (at that time its Governing Body) in 193o and in 1937 became its Chairman. He held this office until 1948 and continued to serve as a member of the Council until 1951.

As Chairman, it fell to him to pilot the College through the problems and vicissitudes created by the requisitioning of the College buildings for use as a Head Wounds Hospital in 1939. It was extremely fortunate for St. Hugh's College that during those difficult war years it had as the Chairman of its Governing Body the Registrar of the University. That its prosperity was neither harmed nor retarded during that disruptive period was to a great extent due to the Chairman's wise guidance. When in the Summer of 1946 it became apparent that the demolition of the six 'huts'—in fact substantially built hospital wards—in the College garden could not be carried out for a period of some years, Mr. Veale was concerned, both as Registrar of the University and as Chairman of St. Hugh's College Council, with negotiating the tripartite agreement between the War Office, the University, and the College by which the War Office relinquished the 'huts' to the College, and the College leased them to the University for the accommodation of various University institutions. This agreement certainly saved the College from having the 'huts' occupied by squatters. Mr. Veale's support and help were also invaluable to the College when the time finally came for the demolition of these buildings.

Throughout, Mr. Veale took the greatest interest in the constitutional development by which St. Hugh's became a completely self-governing corporation and finally a full College of the University. In 1948, as Chairman of the Council he proposed the alteration in the Statutes of the College by which the Principal became ex officio Chairman. This was a necessary first step in this development. He also gave help and advice in the further and more farreaching revision of the Statutes by which the membership of the Governing Body was restricted to the Principal and Fellows—again a necessary step, if

S

32

St. Hugh's was to obtain full College Status. At all times, Mr. Veale gave unstintingly of his time and the benefit of his experience to the affairs of St. Hugh's. An extremely busy man, he yet always seemed at hand to help and advise in times of difficulty. The debt of St. Hugh's to him for all he did for it is incalculable.

SISTER MARY MARGARET, C.H.C. (MARGARET ANNIE ISABELLA SPICER) HE Assistant Superior of Holy Cross Convent, Haywards Heath, has written to tell us of the death of Sister Mary Margaret. She says 'Sister died very peacefully on 4 January 1974; she was in her eightieth year and had she lived another eighteen months would have celebrated her golden jubilee of profession. During her long life as a religious she was Novice Mistress for thirty years and Mother Superior for eight, retiring in 197o because of her health. `Many people in all spheres of life knew and loved Sister Mary Margaret; her character was outstanding and we feel sure her college would be proud of her.'

T

GERTRUDE MARY CHAPPEL ERTRUDE MARY CHAPPEL, third daughter of Canon Chappel, Headmaster of King's School, Worcester, entered St. Hugh's College G in October 1915, as Alice Ottley Scholar, to read English.

Though devoted to her subject, with a particular love of Wordsworth, Mary entered fully into all aspects of College life. She was specially interested in the Debating Society and in the Student Christian Union. She was a member of the Oxford University Women's Hockey Team, and played against Cambridge in 1916. Boating on the Cherwell delighted her, and she helped to train other students in the art.

After postgraduate teacher-training in London, she took a post at a High School in Bermondsey. The work was hard, but she taught there for five years; and she managed to find time and strength to run a Girl Guide Company for the school and another in connection with the University Settlement where she was living. From Bermondsey she went to the High School at Lincoln as Senior English Mistress, and five years later she was appointed Headmistress of Romford County High School.

Thenceforward her school was everything to her, and generations of schoolgirls and Old Girls came to realize how much their personal concerns meant to Miss Chappel. It was a severe blow to the Headmistress when ill-health forced her to give up her work several years before she had expected to have to retire from the school.

Mary did not give up working. In spite of having to live a restricted life, she sought out children who were failing in school because of weakness in reading or arithmetic, and gave them individual lessons, free, in her own home. As a result many boys and girls were enabled to take their proper place among their schoolfellows.

33

Up to the end of her life she was lending her home for weekly study circles, in which she took part, and for monthly meetings to listen to tape recordings on missionary matters.

She died peacefully on Sunday, 11 November 1973.

Mary had a great love of Nature—mountains, trees, streams, and the sea.

The garden she made in Essex was a perennial joy to her and to her friends.

PHYLLIS MARGUERITE MARIE GRAHAM

P

HYLLIS GRAHAM came to St. Hugh's in 1925. As the family tradi-

tions did not include the idea of University education, she had to leave school before reaching the Sixth Form. Nevertheless she quietly persisted, and prepared herself alone at home to take the St. Hugh's Entrance Examination. It was not until halfway through her first year that I discovered that she suffered from asthma, and always had to sleep sitting up. She wished to train for the teaching profession and Miss Gwyer suggested to her that she should apply for a scholarship to the Training Department of Grahamstown, South Africa, and benefit by the change of climate. This she did, and was at last cured.

She then decided to take a more advanced training course at a Training College attached to London University. With the outbreak of the war this Training College was evacuated to the Midlands, and not long afterwards Phyllis was asked to go with the Head of Marlborough School to inspect and report on the Training Department of the new University College of Makerere in Africa. She was asked to stay and join the staff, and she also took charge of the Women's Hall of Residence. This experience helped in her study of `communication'—a topic of great interest to her.

Her next appointment was to the Church of England Women's Training College at Fishponds, Bristol. Before long the corresponding Training College for Men there was combined with it and she remained the Principal.

On her retirement she came back to Oxford and at last was able to start her long-postponed research and started working for a D.Phil. She made her home at Aldsworth, but lived also in Oxford. When I visited her at Aldsworth she was recovering from a minor illness, but the specialist had told her that she could now do 'whatever she pleased'. She had just found that there were useful documents at a Swiss university, and she was on the point of travelling there. On the eve of the day of departure she suddenly died. She was a very efficient organizer and her funeral at Burford was attended by the representatives of a great many institutions which she had served in her lifetime.

MRS. LEONARD CAPLAN (TATJANA FINKELSTEIN) T St. Hugh's, which she loved, Tania Caplan found an ideal climate to nurture the qualities which made her personality unique and her friendship precious in a world at spiritual war. She stood supremely for those values for which Oxford has always been honoured.

A

34

The girl Tatjana Finkelstein and her mother who came to England were representative of one of the heroic and tragic phenomena of our epoch in Western Europe: the migration of those of high gifts from the countries they loved and graced. Her mother was a concert singer of quality. Her father, a distinguished lawyer in Riga, would later be a victim of a mass massacre by the Nazis.

Tania came up to St. Hugh's with a London LL.B. to do her B.Litt. thesis in International Law. Called to the Bar by Gray's Inn, she went on to further study in the Chambers of Maitre Gide in Paris, and then became a pupil in those of Hubert Parker, later Lord Parker of Waddington, Lord Chief Justice. Fluent in French, German, and Russian, she joined the B.B.C. on the outbreak of war, to monitor foreign-language broadcasts. Later she became Educational Director of the American Red Cross Club, U.S. Army Southern Command Headquarters, at Salisbury, to be near her husband, who was by then on the D-Day Planning Staff of Southern Command.

She and Leonard Caplan, Q.C., her brilliant fellow-spirit, and adoring and adored husband, were shining exemplars of the joyousness that a perfect marriage can bring, and of the beauty of dedication and achievement in two of the most responsible and exacting fields in professional and public life— the law and politics.

Husband, wife, and elder daughter were respectively and contemporaneously (thus creating a record) a Master of the Bench, a Barrister, and a Student of their Inn, and Tania was the ideal comrade-in-arms in her husband's Conservative Parliamentary candidature in three memorable General Election campaigns.

Tania Caplan was so selfless and modest that it was possible to know her for years without being aware of all her many talents—she was, for example, an accomplished pianist, and a more-than-amateur photographer, and only the evidence of their eyes would have indicated to acquaintances that her knowledge and appreciation of art and antique furniture were profound and discerning.

Translucently incapable of any kind of meanness, she will be remembered for her completely feminine charm; her kindness with sound good sense; her fastidiousness of spirit; her serene courage; and her gentleness.

NORAH KATHLEEN MAY GURNEY (née DEWAR)

N

ORAH came to St. Hugh's at the outbreak of war, living first in Holywell Manor where—unlike the favoured Balliol male occupants before us—two students shared two rooms! The war brought its limitations, but these were not too severe in our first year and we, too, had our 'golden Oxford afternoons' in 1940. But in 1941, social life necessarily had to lessen, and we settled down to a quiet but happy existence in one of the 'outstations' —for our 'set' in 8z Woodstock Road, where Mr. and Mrs. Johnson cared so well for our material wants and Mrs. Martin Clarke guided us through the mysteries of A.R.P. Being such a small group, and very much in each other's company, we were perhaps rather closer than most students and have kept 35

in touch ever since, letting each other know of all important news and fitting in the occasional visit whenever possible.

After her degree (in Modern History) Norah took some time to find her mĂŠtier. She had married while still an undergraduate, but things did not work out, and her later wishes to enter the contemplative religious life were not fulfilled. But with her entry into historical records work at Sheffield City Library she took her first step as an archivist and never looked back. Her eventual intellectual home was the Borthwick Institute of Historical Research at the University of York, and her work there has met with wide acclaim.

The obituary in The Times (itself an accolade to her brilliant scholarship) has referred to her widely recognized achievements.

Wherever she went, Norah was able to create a beautiful home, whether in a small flat or, eventually, in her own elegant house in York. She had exquisite taste which was reflected, not only in her own home but in her design of the beautifully tended garden adjacent to the Institute. Although of quiet disposition (perhaps rather withdrawn at times) she was one of those friends who are `always there'. So many of us will miss her very ready interest and sympathy in our fortunes, good or less good, and she kept up her usual delightful correspondence to within a few weeks of her death.

It is tragic indeed that a serious illness struck when she was at the very zenith of a brilliant career, but, as would be expected, she met suffering with patience, courage, and unshakeable faith. As the words of her funeral service ran: 'God tested her like gold and accepted her . . . She is buried in the grounds of the Carmelite convent near Sheffield, to which she was so much attached. `In the Lord's own house shall she dwell, for ever and ever.'

ZITA M. JAMES ITA DIGGINES was one of the generation of undergraduates who arrived in Oxford in October 1939 to a hastily evacuated college transZ ferred in part to Holywell Manor. It was an active time and Zita, with her bright red head and vivid personality, soon had a wide circle of friends. She graduated in Modern Languages in 1942 and went to the Ministry of Fuel and Power, transferring a year later to the Factory Inspectorate, where she worked for eight years. This gave her an admirable opportunity to develop her talents. Miss A. S. Bettenson, former Deputy Chief Inspector of Factories, with whom Zita worked for a number of years, writes of her: About 1948 she was selected for a job at Headquarters. New requirements about seating in factories meant that a great deal of propaganda and information had to be put across not only to management and workers but also to the inspectors themselves. The job required a lively, intelligent inspector who would be persona grata with people in industry and with her colleagues throughout the country. The choice of Zita was a brilliant stroke. She went down well at meetings, earned a good deal of publicity, and was welcome everywhere.

She married Hugh James, whom she met at Oxford, in 1947, and left the Factory Inspectorate in 1951 when her husband went into general practice

36

near Norwich; they settled in Hethersett, where Zita set about being an efficient doctor's wife and a positive countrywoman in the modern manner, gardening, preserving, cooking, and later freezing. She joined the Hethersett Women's Institute and was easily recognized as a valuable committee member and a forceful and lively speaker with good ideas on the role of women in a changing countryside. She was elected County Chairman in 1969 and in 1971 edited `Within Living Memory', a delightful collection of Norfolk reminiscences gathered from a W.I. essay competition. This sold Io,000 copies and has paid for refurbishing the Institute house in Norwich. Her other great W.I. activity was to link the Institutes with countrywomen's organizations in Holland, Denmark, and France, with many successful exchange visits. The Norwich—Rouen twinning scheme owed much of its success to her interest and she also organized and led parties of magistrates and doctors on exchange visits to France.

She was a magistrate, a member of the B.B.C. Advisory Panel, a founder member of the Norwich branch of the Association of University Women, and, to her especial pleasure, a Member of the Council of the University of East Anglia. For twenty years she taught French part-time at Hethersett Old Hall School, building up a practical course from junior level to C.S.E. which her pupils took with great success.

Zita filled her busy life with activities for many people, but it is for her friendship that we shall remember her. She and Hugh kept open house for convalescing friends, whole families staying for Christmas, and a stream of nieces, nephews, and godchildren arriving for precious visits full of fun and non-parental understanding, with a good mixture of French youngsters coming and going to exchanges and jobs, usually found by Zita. For many of our year at Oxford she was the link, writing long and entertaining letters with news of our old friends. The red hair faded a little, but never the vividness of the personality or the warmth of the welcome. Norwich Cathedral was full, at her memorial service in January, of people who not only recognized an outstanding member of their community, but who mourned, as we did, the loss of a good friend. She died untimely, and is sorely missed.
