EDITORIAL This year the Editor s have approached the College Magazine with the desire of building on the previous committee's efforts, in restor ing the Fleur de Lys to a quality periodical, acknowledg ing its integral role as the record of the recent history of Trinity College.

The College community has continued to both provide and enjoy the rich legacy of sporting, artistic and dramatic achievements. It is these aspects, which are so essential in maintaining the fabric of Trinity life, that we have attempted to capture and record in the 1983 Fleur de Lys.

SECURING THE FUTURE OF TRINITY From time to time, residential Colleges like Trinity come under attack. Perhaps the most serious onslaughts against Trinity were made about fifteen years ago. They were serious because they were made mainly by students, both inside the College and outside it. As a result, there were about twenty empty rooms at the beginning of the 1971 academic year - a very different tale from that of recent years when two hundred applicants have been regularly turned away.

Fifteen years ago, the gist of the case against the Colleges was that they were oppressive and elitist institutions, open only to the few who had the money to pay for a regimented life - which no liberated student would want anyway. Those who were actually experiencing College life at the time, and enjoying it, were often made to feel guilty about the enjoyment.

Governments and Universities were persuaded by vocal student leaders that students no longer wanted to live in Colleges. Aggregations of self-catering units (like Toad Hall at A.N.U.) were one answer. About the time I became Warden in 1974, the Universities Commission in its triennial report to the Federal Government went so far as to include suggestions about how Colleges could be closed down and their buildings handed over to the Universities.

Fortunately, both the Colleges and the general student mood changed. The Colleges adapted to the times by such things as removing the restrictive visiting hours for members of the opposite sex, liberalising the rather formal dress req uirements (until the late sixt ies Trinity men were required to were a black tie and jacket to dinner as well as a gown) and finally by becom ing coresidential.

As the Colleges changed, so did student opinion. The new kinds of non-collegiate residence, which had seemed so good in theory, turned out in practice to be dreary and often lonely places. They were places to live in but not to belong to. They were places where few others knew your name, or seemed to care whether you were happy or sad, sick or well or even alive or dead. A few weeks ago, the Vice-Chancellor of A.N.U. told a conference I was attending that the best thing about Toad Hall was that they built only half of it. Soon afterwards a student spoke to me. She had moved from a College which had been converted to a virtual hostel, with its dining hall turned into a series of shared "cookyour-own-meal" kitchens. She had moved from there to a traditional College and told me what a relief it was "to belong to a place where someone cared about you."

Instinctively, in Colleges like Trinity most students seemed to feel the importance of belonging to a community where they would share t_ heir talents with others (whether these involved academic work, art, sport, music, organising social functions, or just being a 2

good friend) . Since about 1976,Trinity have been on the crest of a wave, with a lively, friendly and infectious "College spirit". The jibes of the detractors were no longer heard. Council bursaries, work bursaries, and a Warden' s "discretionary fund" all ensured that we were not the preserve of only the wealthy few. The number of applicants from State High Schools, although still not large, has been growing steadily. In keeplng with a policy of fostering diversity within the College, ten percent of Trinity places of fostering diversity within the College, ten percent of Trinity places have gone to students of RM.LT., Lincoln Institute and other Colleges of Advanced Education. We have been richer for the valuable contributions to our life.

Despite this story of successful adaption and diversification, Colleges in general, and especially traditional Colleges like Trinity, are once again under attack. In August, the Minister for Education (Senator Susan Ryan)announced a twenty-five percent cut in the Government Grant which, for the past twenty years, has been paid to Colleges, "for administration and ~utorials". A review of the whole system of paying grants 1sto follow. In 1983,Trinity's grant will total $72,000.Next year it will be cut to $54,000- a cut equivalent to $2.50 per student per week The National Association of the Heads of Colleges has been protesting with vigour to the Minister , and to the other members of Parliament - both Government and Opposition. If the recent treatment of grants to independent schools is any guide, the promised review of the Colleges' grant is unlikely to favour any of the Melbourne Colleges, and certainly not the older ones like ourselves.

How should we react to all of this ? My answer is unequivocal ... "We have confidence in the value of the Collegiate experience for as many University students as possible." The kind of academic community which Trinity represents has stood the test of eight centuries.

If offers an enjoyable and stimu latin g environment in whi~h young _adul~s can grow into better stimulating environment in which young adults can grow into better equipped and more aware people. It is a precious inh_eretancewhich m~st be secured from the changing whims of successive ministers and changing governments.

Trinity has come through far worse crises than the one we now face through the reduction and threatened removal o_f the Government Grant. we shall come through this one too, because so many of our past and pres~nt students are grateful for what they have received here. They understand from experience the ~road educational goals and values of the College. The time has come for all members of Trinity, and all who have t~e good of the College at heart, to ensure that the benefi~ we enjoy here will be available for future generations.

The Revd.Dr. EvanBurge September, I 983

SENIOR STUDENT'S REPORT Questions frequently asked of me throughout the year have related to whether I have found being a female, and furthermore, the first female S.S. more difficult Upon assuming office, I must concede to feeling some trepidation at an added impetus to perform and be observed as the first female S.S.,however, on reflection it is with gratitude that I regard the challenge the position offered, t~e opportunity to become involved to such a degree in the life of College, and the College response.

At the end of 2nd term last year we had secured both the Cowan Cup and Holmes Shield jointly for the second corresponding year and genuine College pride was prevalent This year has, in many ways, seen the sporting tradition continue, especially for the girls with victories in the I st VIII, swimming, baseball. athletics and tennis. With a second placement in golf we retained the Holmes Shield. The men also have performed commendably on the sporting fields and our final standing on the Cowan Cup points list, i.e. - 3rd(?). was attributable more to a single college - Newman - being able to capitalise on our losses than any decline in sporting commitment or ability.

The enthusiasm, dedication and gobd will which characterised sporting involvement over the year were not confined solely to sport but. indeed, permeated most aspects of College life. The 1983 0-week will, I'm sure, I ive on in the memories not only of the 1983

freshers but also the 0-week organisers who incredulously underestimated the drinking capacity and stamina of the largest fresher group which has entered College for some years. The highly successful Mystery Tour and Casino Night particularly spring to mind as the organisational highlights of the week.

The social calendar was further enhanced by the more modern traditions of Harraway tennis, the Trike race, the Scavenger Hunt and the Car Rally. Then there was that twice in a life time experience, the Jeopardy Corridor filling party - what can one say except that it was fun while it lasted.

Riding high on the propaganda from Duntroon, perhaps, some people saw Juttodie as Trinity College's own form of'bastardization ' - I believe that nothing was further from the minds of the organisers than to truly humiliate the I st years. I see Juttodie as serving an important function in College, whereby the unifying aspect of tradition is seen in the form of vegemite and bricks rather than gowns and ivy. However, having said this, I feel care must be taken to avoid Juttodie sinking to the level of crude initiation rites sometimes seen in other colleges . I think we are still far from that fresherdom here is not, nor should it be, an intimidating process.

The diversity of College involvement has been seen in a number of ways throughout the year. The prominence and talents of the music society were visible in its support of the much acclaimed Drama Club production of A Came al Cnesseand culminated in the highly successful musical production of Gilbert and Sullivan's Trialby Jury. The Dialectic Society quizzes, the intra-collegiate debates, the Tuesday at Trinity talks and art exhibitions have all been welcome cultural diversions.

Such activities serve as a necessary reminder that to be an active College member should not. by definition , be confined to excellence on the sporting field or prominence in the social arena. So often the pursuit of academic excellence is condemned or downplayed.

We pay tribute to our scholars on one occasion in this year - the Scholars' Dinner which is a recent innovation in itself. To appreciate the full potential of life in Trinity we should tolerate and sample all aspects of the College experience, remembering that it is our academic interests which have brought us together . By this, I do not mean to shield apathy - we get from College only what we are prepared to put in - but simply to suggest that valuable contributions can be channelled in a variety of ways (even in something as seemingly inconspicuous as the stability which a serious working attitude of later year students can bring.)

To have worked and been associated with the 1983 TCAC Committee has been a privilege. Their enthusiasm, approachability and imagination have been a tremendous support and indeed has helped to create one of the friendliest College atmospheres I believe is possible.

Where would we have been without our incredibly

efficient and competent indoor rep. Kate ('Goo'ds') Smallwood. Goods has done a difficult and often thank less job very well thi s year with enthusiasm and good humour. No-one envied her her position as the sounding board for complaints in the early days of 'cook-chill' and it must be pretty tedious to wait for the latest update on the 'Cowan fridge crisis'.

Tim Lindsay has excelled in his role as General Rep. So often throughout the year we were treated to manifestations of his seem ingly inexhaustible imagination and ingenuity. The variety and excitement of 0-week, the class of the 1983 'In the Mood' Ball and t he general organisation of College functions all bear test imony to his enthusiasm and organisational ability .

Our tried and true trusty Treasurer Tim may have entered his position with grandiose fantasies of trop ical islands, golden sunsets, long drinks and short sarongsall on the TCAC expens ¡e account- but the reality of the logistics and statistics of 3 terms of active spe nding have. sadly , reduced his potential travelling allowance more to a one way ticket to Sandringham - half price . All this you sacrifice for accountability and responsibility .

Fi Purnell had the unenviable task of assuming a TCAC position .early in first term this year. Despite her late start. she handled the organisation of Women's Sports Rep. with competence and ease and her personal involvement in many sports no doubt contributed to the unified spirit and cont inued achievement of women's sport this year.

If ev~r I. was seeking to define t he true sportsman it would be Andrew Maughan - his dedication, wide ranging involvement and ability at sport provided a constant source of insp iration for the College teams this year and his reliability in regard to t he more mundane organisational tasks associated with intercollegiate sporting relations.

The less said about Duncan MacFarlane the better we hear enough about him from him . Perhaps references should be made to his capable hand ling of the office of secretary, his ent husiasm and reliability in helping out at the many TCAC functions and the comic relief he provided in so many of the TCAC meetings .

The resurfacing of the tennis courts was an innovation welcomely received by us all. Although the introduction of the 'cook-chill' food system was initially a littl e dubious, this system has, I feel. overall been satisfactory and it is indicative of the remedies constant ly being sought to maintain College fees at a viable level which will allow the College intake to be as representative as it shou ld be. To th is end, the Warden deserves ¡ full recognition for his efforts.

It has been a young College but a good one . Each year the College character changes - sometimes quite dramatically. I feel this year's College spirit has been characterised by a friendliness, responsiveness, enthusiasm and co-operation. To have been Senior Student of Trinity College in 1983 has been a privilege and an honour that I will remember, always.

OUR FIRST LADY In second term 1982 a new page was turned in Trinity Coll ege history whe n Lisa Stewart was elected as our first female Senior Student.

Lisa had an arduous task before her not only to Iive up to the demanding posit ion of Senior Student but to prove to members of the College that a female, only in second year, could cope with the position held previou sly only by males. She did this admirably .

Lisa's fine lead ership welded close bonds between members of the TC.AC. Committee. She was forever willing to assist and back up the Committee in any time of difficulty . The success and commitment of the 1982-3 TC.AC. Committee was due to this unity and frie ndship created by our first lady.

Around College Lisa's friend ly, cheerful pe rsonality made her easily approachable, an important role of the Senior Student. Anyone with a problem or a new idea would have found Lisa an easy and accommodating person to talk to. This increased involvem ent by members of the College and helped maintain a good relationship between the students and the administration.

Lisa's admirable qualities helped promote the friendly atmosphere enjoyed in Trinity which hopefully will continue. She will be described in the history books .not on ly as our first female Senior Student but as a great Senior Student.

THE WIGRAM - ALLEN PRIZE CENTENARY

BEATRIX POTTER A NEW PERSPECTIVE? Beatrix Potter wrote over twenty short books for children between 1900 and 1944. Their innocence , dewy freshness and playful fantasy have struck most critics. Generations of parents have gladly provided their children with these completely respectable stories, safe in the knowledge that from them children could never extract dubious moral standards . In an age when dramatic impact. on television for example, can only be achieved by a loud burst of sub-machine-gun fire, parents have entrusted their children to the gentle imagery of Beatrix Potter's world , confident that anything written by that small, apple-cheeked woman with a lace cap and a kindly disposition , must be harmless. The world of the hedge-row, heath and riverbank they feel , is a haven unblemished by hard modern cynicism , commercialism or educationalists with their 'open-ended imaginatitm thrusts" .

A doubt, however, supervenes . Papers containing alarming McCarthyist accusations against Potter were recently uncovered in the archives of the Cumberland 路 County Council. This anonymous source implies that the remote cottage at Hill Top Farm near Sawrey in the Lakes District of Northern England, which Potter owned from 1905,served as a base for one 路of the first Marxist cells in Westmorland . From it she apparently dispatched pamphlets with delightful watercolour illustrations, floral motifs and little ribbon bindings, tirelessly promoting the glorious cause of the international Trotskyite workers' movement Underneath the outward display of mild beneficience , therefore , we may infer that Potter was a shrewd political agitator .

In the light of these suggestions,Potter's work must be thoroughly and radically reconsidered . A new look at her oeuvre from a marxist standpoint will reveal its substantial significance as revolutionary political philosophy. Such an approach is not altogether new. Dr. Krautheimer's long-awaited and important monograph , "Psycho-sexual Development in Tne Houseat PoonCorner" applies Freudian principles to A.A. Milne's passionate work. Prof. Schonmuller has spent eighteen months tracing the Inda-European .mythic roots of Alic e in Wonderlandand has come to the brilliant conclusion, in a recent article, that Lewis Carroll derived much of his story from Sanskrit earthenware inscriptions .

Beatrix Potter 's stories, however, depict the mighty class struggle in which Potter was, herself, an active participant. Her vividly portrayed heroes and heroines struggle against domination by the upper middle-class and against the remanents of feudal society. The woods, villages and farms in Potter's works constitute a microcosm of Edwardian society in which the greedy forces of capitalism flourish . The suppression of the urban proletarian is movingly depicted in Tne Tale ofMrs. Tiggwinkle. The middle-class of Little -Town bestows degrading, menial tasks, like washing and ironing Tom

Titmouse's shirtfronts, upon Mrs. Tiggywinkle, t he hedgehog, Little-Town's untouchable social outcast.

But other characters in Potter's stories refuse to sub mit to such enslavement and rebel against the values of capitalist society.

In Tne Tale of Peter Rabbit, Peter escapes the bourgeois mentality of Mrs. Rabbit and her servile and conformist bunni es Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail , defiantly entering the feudal estate of Mr. MacGregor. In a later tale Peter and Benjamin Bunny return to the garden to remove quantities of onions in Peter's red cotton pocket-handkerchief while the overlord and his wife (in one of whose pies, we later discover, Mr. Rabbit met a hideous end) are away. The urban proletarians rightfully re--possess and distribute the fruits of their labour among their downtroden comrades . Thus Peter and Benjamin become Potter's key revolutionaries.

Similarly , Tom 路 Kitten and his sisters escape the suffocating atmosphere of Cousin Tabbatha Twitchet's debauched tea-party, in TneTale of TomKitten and venture forth to romp in the freedom of the rockery. As they climb up through the ferns, t hey shed the restrictive , binding pinafores and tuckers of upper middle class morality which society has forced upon them.

Potter's forward-looking feminist attitudes are e-Duck. The particularly evident in Tne Tale of JemimaPuddl farmer's wife will not let Jemima hatch her own eggs farmyard society denies her the right to ducklings and the self-expression of motherhood. In an eclat of revulsion, Jemima abandons the familiar world of repressive conservatism and seek refuge in the wood , far from the tyranny of the farmer's wife . D.H. Lawrence clearly leaned much from Jemima Puddle--Duck's animal instincts . After her near-fatal liaison with the foxy gentleman and her enforced return to the farm, Jemima is at last at liberty to hatch her own eggs. Potter looks ahead to an idyllic society of feminine equality .

Like Marx, Potter was fascinated by the inte raction and rivalry of all social classes, not just the ultimate domination by workers . Hence, the Tailor of Gloucester in Potter's tale of that name, panders to the needs of his aristocratic clients . He produces, for example , a lavish embroidered cherry-coloured satin waistcoat for the Mayor of Gloucester to wear at his wedding. At the same time, on the pretext of illness , he exploits the wonderful but shamefully under-paid skills of mouse labour, taking the credit for himself.

Potter's probing social commentary in the guise of children路s fiction is, indeed , underrated. Her heroes and heroines shed their metaphoric chains and rise against their oppressors . It is certainly no coincidence that Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes were published shortly after the storming of the Winter Palace in October 1917. The outpouring of visionary lyricism in this work can only confirm our new view of Beatrix Potter, the radical political idealist - the marxist revolutionary .

ORIENTATION WEEK

The committee formed to organise 0-Week this year was very large, and although its membership fluctuated, the success of the week can be laid for the most part at their door. Not only for their ideas and enthusiasm. but for the sheer slog it involved . The rest of the credit must go to the freshers who took the word "participation" to new heights. The strategy of the committee was to wear the Freshers out early and so they each received a packed time-table in their show-bags on arrival.

Ultimately they were worn out, but not before the majority of seniors in college for the week were utterly exhausted as well.

There were all the usual events aimed at introducing the Freshers to Colleg e and themselves to others; the drinks parties. the meetings and the tour ending ¡in a apline assault of Behan. There were also some unforgettable days. The more sophisticated activities included the Magical Mystery Tour (see below) and the stroll in the Royal Botanic Gardens. The latter included a step into the I 920's through costumes and the surprise reception at Government House. The scaling of the tower came as a change to those who spent most of the day perambulating and poeticising while amply plied with pink gins or Pimms.

The Royal Botani c GardensWalk

In a more Neanderthal vein. the pub-crawl was an ordeal by imbibi tion and it has been years since even Carlton's well-patronised watering holes have witnessed such scenes of dedication. Congratulations to the graduates (with and without Honours). to those awarded Ph.D's and. of course to our Rhodes Scholar, a truly academic drinker, even if he nearly had to receive the degree postumously.

One of the most successful of all events was when the dining-hall was transformed into "Le Club Toucan", a coppe r casino of roulette wheels, card tables and the smoke-filled dance floor straight out of a Bogart classic.

Over twenty-five people worked for very long hours that day to create a memorable fantasy, an illusion maintained to the last when Smiley announced the Allied victory and that champagne was on the house.

The final day of the week remained just as busy with the sadistic Senior Gents Endurance Stakes and ~hile these fruitcakes returned in dribs and drabs throughout the afternoon everyone else was entertained with winetasting and the Freshers vs. Seniors cricket match. In a close game the Seniors eventually took the initiative and a one run victory (funny that !). The Rock 'n' Roll Jukebox Jive t hat night rounded off an amazing week.

THE MAGICALMYSTERY TOUR

The Trinity College Orientation Week Mystery Tour has become an institution. Therefore the challenge for this year's committee was to make a new, fresh and exciting approach to this excursion. "Let's try a double-decker bus." "Yes, a big, red. double-decker bus."" Fabulous. a big, red, double-decker bus festooned with balloons, streamers and banners ." "Sensational!"

The waiting crowd was impressed as the bus, in all its splendour. struggled in through the college gates. The bus stood beneath the Bishops ' Tower with the host. conductor and waitresses bursting from the plush blue and gold interior to the music of the Beatles' "Magical Mystery Tour ". The arrival had proved sensational indeed .

Having squeezed the last of the of the 75 passengers into the thoroughly overcrowded bus. the tour began; destination unknown . The journey along the Tullamarine Freeway passed relatively unnoticed as we nibbled strawberries and grapes and sipped champagne, so much so. that when the instruction to leave the bus came, it was quite a surprise . It was confirmed that tickets and boarding passes should be picked up from British Airport counter three.

Expressions of genuine sincerity made at least a couple of the members of the upper deck leave the bus. The door hissed and the bus trundled forward, seemingly with the intent to leave but then for humanitarian reasons the bus stopped to pick up lost souls in the

international departure lounge of Melbourne Airport Similar sincere gestures eventually lured the passengers from the bus at the second point of call; Lot 5 I 5 of the Goonawarra Estate. Yet still it was with some reluctance !he the Freshers accepted this brick veneer. gardenless home as the real destination . Had the owners been at home I'm sure they would have been upset at the reluctance shown to have a barbeque under their clothes-line of nappies .

At this stage there were discussions amongst the Freshers as to the competance of the 路o路 week committee . This, however, was all changed when we arrived at the ideal destination of Bolinda Vale, a bluestone homestead built late last century. The lush, English-style gardens were generously opened up to us

by Sir Rupert and Lady Clarke. With the arrival of some seniors by car, we all settled down to enjoy lunch, then lounged by or in the pool or relaxed while practising the art of social tennis . All in all, a great opportunity to recover from the first few taxing days in 路o路 week The return trip was direct with an unprecendented peace descending upon on the crowd. The bus parked outside the College gates to signal the end of a very successful mystery tour . For this, thanks to the committee are due, especially to Deborah Hollingworth, Adam Jenney, Kate Smallwood, John Carruthers, Anna Webb, Tim Lindsey , Andrew Maughan and Jeffrey Sheather.

TI-IESENIOR GENTS' ENDURANCE STAKES Initiation for Freshers can be a very harrowing experieRce, and so as expression of goodwill five seniors volunteered to participate in the Senior Endurance Stakes at the end of 'O' Week. The contestants agreed (a touch too readily in retrospect) to _. ~!IRI' be dumped at an unknown destination, in strange·attire and left to their own resources to find their way home.

Tim Morris as The Nun with the Fish had a rather aromatic day to say the least Dutifully he carried his pungent pair of fish all day, despite numerous entreaties to leave his aquatic friends behind, outside or whatever. Asking one passer-by if he could borrow 60 cents, the man looked at our beloved Sister Tim and said, "t hat's quite funny". And walked off. The stationmaster, a more generous man at heart, said ''I'll shout a;......_,i you a ticket as long as you don't bring your bloody fish into my station." Tim's pilgrimage continued; however, still with fish in hand. This fact might well explain Tim's SeniorGentsEnduranc e Stakes somewhat solitary trip back to Melbourne.

Brecon Darbyshire, as Superman and the Tyre, had a most strenuous day, his super powers being well and truly tested. Superman was dropped at the Bundoora Mental Hospital. and although given the task to find his way from the place, people considerately gave him directions to the hospital throughout the afternoon.

"Michael. Michael. come back! Michael!" The woman's Waiting for a train, despite requests for him to fly, voice nearly cracked as she yelled after the diminishing Superman met an old lady who told him of the hard figure.

blue eyes in an eight year old face.

The woman spat out, "How the hell do I know?" But as the girl stood very still, staring at her, one hand entangled in blond hair so like her own, she mumbled, "He's skipped, bloody left us."

The girl remained for a moment, then turning suddenly, scooped up her young brother wordlessly and ran into the street She ran until she could run no ¡ further, and then she found a haven, scuttling into a tree's narrowed out cavern in an otherwise deserted park. ..At last, she cried. "What now, Billy? What now?

The woman had let them go without worry. She lit a cigarette, and poured some beer into a dirt encrusted glass, swilling it. What the hell, she thought. Michael's gone. I can always find another bloody man. But she looked into the yellowing mirror above the mantelpiece, and she knew she was lying. She cried brokenly for a few moments, and then she drank again.

And again. At last the only movement in the house was the shuddering of her body as she snored.

Her shoulders were shaken severely, and as her head rattled back, her eyes opened blearily.

"What the hell?" The words blurred forth. Dimly she became aware of the sturdy figure before her, of Michael. his alcoholic face looking into hers.

'You 've come back," she said dully.

"Yeah. Reckon you've learnt your lesson," he grunted.

Her mouth tightened. ''Vou know you need me now."

She slapped at him quickly, angrily. "Like a hole in the head, that's how I need you!"

A fight developed, turning into a rough love-making session, and by the time the anger and the passion was all spent. it was dark outside .

"Where 's the kids?" she said suddenly. He looked blank.

"I dunno." He tried to pull her to him again, but she evaded him, pulling her jeans on.

"They've bloody been gone since you left."

There was a knock at the door, and she moved towards it, fastening her shirt as she did so. A policeman stood there, starkly grey-blue against the harsh streetlight. One hand in his, the litt le girl stood . Her eyes were blank, quite blank.

'Tm afraid your son has been in an accident . . ." The policeman spoke with difficulty, finding it hard, as always to break such news. The little girl stared dully ahead, her face expressionless.

And the woman screamed once. Awfully. And the man appeared behind her in the doorway, tucking hist-shirt into his tight blue jeans. His face was terrible in its anguish, as he reached out to somehow share the pain with his wife.

"You and your bloody lessons!" she yelled, hugging her daughter to her. And the weight of the world fell on his shoulders, and he knew the pain of the moment would never leave.

SENIOR COMMON ROOM We have been fortunate in 1983, to retain a large number of tutors from the previous year. This number was also swelled with the arrival of a diverse new group of resident tutors. Thus we have had a productive mixing of experience in the ways of college life with the freshness and enthusiasm of the newer members .

New tutors brought a wide range of disciplines of study - Annie Lai, Phil Smee and Andrew Cole (Engineering), Cathy O'Brien (Vet. Science). Martin Gallagher (Economics) and Terry Gallagher, Janet McKay (Chemistry) and Kurt Esser (Law). Helmut Geib linger was a temporary member for term one and 9

term two, becoming a resident tutor in term three, Bernadette Steele (Law) also jo ined the ranks as resident tutor for term three.

The diversity of the activities of the SCR has been considerable this year, especia lly if one considers that the membership includes non-resident tutors, fellows, directors of stud ies, elected and honary members , officers of the college as well as the resident tutors . The year-to-year permanence of this large group (approx I 00 members) has proven itself to be vital in the history of the college in the maintenance of so many of the ideals and aspirations of the college com munity , as a group outliving the student residency of any year, even of wardenship s. To varying degre es, all individuals of this large group have contributed to the enrichment of college life . Thanks are due in particular , to the resident tutors for their consciencious service in the areas of administration , discipline, the academic program, social events and public relations . It is the ir enthusiasm in performing many vital. but often mechanical, tasks which contribute much to the smooth running of the college.

The life of the SRC has been enriched by a number of notable events in 1983.We were all delighted with the return of the colourful Peter McKay and his new wife Janet. We also congratulated Andrew Cole on his engagement to Susan. Our best wishes are with David O'Callaghan who left at the end of term two to study at Yale University. Mary Perrett completed her M.A. early this year and left on a much deferred trip overseas.

Christine Trahair also complemented her M.A. Social events this year includ ed a picnic in the Botanical gardens, Gourmet Bar-be-que, 'At Home' in the newly decorated SCR,Guest night, SCRteam 011 the walk-against-want, pre-ball drinks at the Melbourne Club (courtesy Bryan). the annual Melbourne Cup Outing, and a memorable 'b ucks turn' for Peter McKay at the Windsor Hotel. All these events involved a considerable degree of organisation and so sincere thanks are due to all who gave their time to make the occasions the successes they were.

The series of seminars organised by Karen and the Tuesday at Trinity talks organised by John Howes have aroused interest and stimulation amongst the college members who attended them. They offered subjects ranging from the more academic to general interest topics. Thanks are due to both Karen and John, and also in particular, to the people who have given of their time and expertise to prepare and conduct the seminars.

We all hope that Jenni McDonald has a speedy recovery from the illness which caused her departure in term one. It is likely that she will be able to return to college towards the end of 1983.

Congratulations to Helen Cooper, the president of the SCR for 1984, and thanks to all office bearers for 1983,especially Kurt Esser (Secretary) and Robert Dean (Treasurer). Finally, thanks are due to all the college staff who have helped and supported t he SCR in all its enterprises.

TI-IE CRIPPS ROOM On the third of September, 1982. Trinity College announced the birth of a new room - the Cripps Room - its function being a common room for the older members of the College . It is my pleasure to announce that our baby is now a t hrivin g toddler. Having celebrated the first birthday, it is possible to review a year of great progress and conso lidation .

An active social calendar has comp limented t he everyday, informal use of the room by its fifty members .

Early in the year t here was the Opening Function and a Sunday Afternoon picnic. Since the beginning of the second term there has been afternoon tea served every Friday, and on Sunday evenings, when it was considered that relaxation was t he key, there have been a diverse selections of events. For example, there was a wine and pate tasting, a film night, a musical recital and a 'Brides head Revisited' party which was a great night of costumes, frivolous conversation and Aowing nostalgia. In third term we held the outrageously successful President's Cocktail party .

The highlight of the year was the inaugral Annual Cripps Room Formal Dinner. We were privileged to have Dr. Robin Sharwood, Fourth Warden , to speak.

This occasion, more than any other, brought the .memb ers together in an atmosphere that is the very essence of the Room - friendship. It should never be forgotten t hat the aim of the Room is to promote the involvement of senior ladi es and gentlemen in College life as a whole. I believe that these senior people have played this role well throughout the year, particularly in the way they have encouraged the participation of the whole College in our activities, leadin g to the subsequent acceptance of the Cripps Room.

The Room has received four gifts this year which are listed below. It is hoped that a precedent has been set for the members to contribute to the on-going improvement of the facility by purchasing something each year.

In closing I would like to thank the memb ers for their support and in particular the committee for their hard work. I wish the Room well and hope that our toddler will continue to prosper through these formative years.

CAR RALLY The 1983Car Rally was distinguished by recklessness of the highest degree. This ranged from the blood duel between the Theolog Ford Dealer Team with the Saab Bad Self Team, to Cecily Ward's Blimpmobile reaching the final destination via a route which never crossed the organiser's mind .

The destination was the Portsea Palace of Mr. Martin Scott, and was revealed through 54 clues. There were also a number of tasks, for example, finding a feather, a McDonalds wrapper, a brick and a boat (Ben Daly found a galleon). However, the hardest task of all seemed to being able to allow for the organiser's dyslexia in reading directions!! (But this was only a rumour, and they did all make it in the end).

Line honours were taken by Mad Max Mitchell after a terrifying battle with Mr. Jeffrey Sheather, including 90 m.p.h. games of 'chicken ' on the Neapean Highway.

They crossed the finishing line with bumpers locked.

However, Sheather's Team had gained more points and were awarded the victory . Mitchell and his Saab team immediately lodged a protest against the intervention of Divine Providence in mortal struggles of endurance .

But omnipitence being stronger than intoxication, the decision went with the Ford Dealer Team. The¡ RacingRed Saab was second , a very good effort for a car registering an absence of petrol for most of the afternoon. Mr. Paul Jeffreywas third. David de Pury, Ben Daly and Cecily Ward filled the last three placings.

Nevertheless champagne was enjoyed by all at formal dinner the next day.

When I have hJd occasion to drive my mother 's 'Hondamatic' into the College car park. I have always scanned the vicinity to see what was going on in the Car World . This year there have been some changes; there are no longer any garages, only the tutors have reserved places and saplings have defiantly emerged between the flat-stones. But it should not be left there. As kicking it is the most important thing about owning a cat, so are cars the most important part of a car park.

One car worthy of note belongs to Mr. Jeffrey Sheather. He returned this year to take on the duties as the Cripps Room treasurer and Dialectic Society Secretary, responsibilities requiring both aesthetic awareness and artistic finesse. All this he put in jeopardy for the sake of his car. In short, the car of a hoon. One cannot miss it, its emetic orange is highlighted by broad vulgar stripes . Its the sort of car one might see parked outside 'Spurs'. I am not alone in this judgement While preparing the Fleur de Lys Dinner under the College Oak, Mr Tony Buzzard was heard to comment that he did not care how, but that the car must be removed from sight Ecumenically, however, the car has been well received. More Bishops have been driven in it than one could shake a crook at When driven from his wedding reception, Bishop James Grant remarked that the car had fine deliverence.

On a more august plane, Mr. Timothy Roberts' Morris continues its happy existence. Tim assures us that this wind-up and most 'wondrous machine ' still holds its head high as it plods past the M.G. (Martha Gardener) specials.

Congratulations to those whose cars are no longer with us, thus having taken to heart the advice of the TC.AC. Secretary in making room for others . In particular to _Mr. Julian Mitchell who has lent the mighty Saab for the last time . The car was inexplicably drawn to a College Crescent lamp -post and suffered massive internal injuries . It seemed thatthe car gave its all atthe Car Rally and could not take the ignominy of defeat Rest in Peace.

TRICYCLERACE REPORT

The Tricycle Race from Portsea to the University is a preview feature of Prosh Week. The Trinity College challenge, which was mounted by a syndicate headed

by Mr Alan Bond, ended in disappointment and with great expense. After a fine start which saw Trinity establish itself as a serious threat for line honours, a series of tragic and unforseeable incidents were to plague and discredit the challengers. For example, mechanical problems included a total absence of brakes, but there were also such hinderances as a deliberate and malicious sabotage attempt when the kamikaze rider on the I.H. trike rammed the Trinity support vehicle.

Despite these setbacks, the team pressed on and third place looked to be ours. Then fate reared it ugly head once more and the tricyle broke in two outside the Richmond Football Ground Repairs in the pits took place but they used up valuable time, se much so that our final position was second last Nevertheless there were some thrilling and

JUTTODDIE Juttoddie is perhaps the strongest and most enduring of Melbourne University's student rituals, and as such something to be treasured and jealously nurtured by generations of College gentry. Since its origin with the donation of the Juttoddie Cup for undergraduate steeple-chasing in 1931 by the now eternally infamous Messrs. Juttner and Oddie, the event has remained in essence unchanged: a handicap steeple-chase that is at once the formal rite of entry and an elaborate ritual festival.

In recent years, elegance and entertainment have grown to dominate the underlying element of trial by ordeal, and rightly so. Trinity (since the efforts of Dick Hamer and his contemporaries) has long been able to boast in the face of many other colleges of an absence of any humiliating or vicious initiation brutalities events frequently and monotonously employed b; critics as evidence of inequities and anachronisms in the life of other collegiate institutions.

Rather, Juttoddie is a day celebrating the frivolities, humour and style of college life . The solemn and liturgical blessing of the bricks, cursing of the tote and opening of festivit ies by the Bishop of Juttoddie (Wayne Weaire) and his train of richly robed theologues amidst clouds of incense and deep chants of "Sursum corda, rock, rock, rock, Rock around the Bulpadok; Ecce freshi, ecce sackcloth, Canat dulce, carmen chorus.

Sursum corda, rock, rock, rock, Rock around the Bulpadok."

12

memorable performances from the Trinity team; Paul Jeffrey's brakeless descent of Oliver's Hill and Tim Vernon's peak-hour negotiation of the five lanes of St Kilda Junction earn them the distinction cif being very silly people. However, brushes with the law were not quite successful as those with the traffic. It seemed that the Frankston constabulary were not in such great humour as the teams. After a display of driving by Mick PickeFingwhich one passenger applauded as being "at high speed", a police constable appeared in person to show his appreciation with a $90 fine. Chris Perry failed to indicate when hanging lanes and came in for similar attention from the police. Such alertness from the policeman prompted Chris to ask why he was not using his talents of awareness for tracking down rapists and murderers. The officer replied by booking him for

$55.

However, it would be safe to say that all the members of the Trinity challenge had an enjoyable time during this year's race; and with luck on our side, next year's line honours might well be ours.

Guardian Weekly, May 1, 1983

Dean defends the value of S&M practices at Trinity "T he growing sympathy in academic circles for the cyclic, repetitious nature of history , is a cause for deep concern", said Dr. Deschamp , Dean of Trinity , in his opening address at a recent history symposium in honour of the contribution of Messrs. J uttner and Oddie to the collegiate life of Trinity.

Dr. Deschamp , a firm proponent of the linear nature of history, denied that his sudden enthusiasm for this view of history had anything to do with his name appearing for the second time as one of the contestants in J uttoddie. Dr. Deschamp reminded his sceptical audience that he had appeared in this event in 1976. " The tendency to promote repeats etc., was a subtle reflection of a cyclic view of history and was to be firmly resisted", the Dean said.

In discussing some of the trends in our society, one of the participants in the symposium asked the Dean

FRESHERREPORT It is somewhat surprising the clarity w.ithwhich one is able to recollect that first impres s ion of College life. We rem e mb e r the gates. the oak and the dist inctly educated look of flowing black gowns. We remember too the warm and welcoming handshakes of those who were there to greet us, and the somewhat relieved look of proud though hes itant paren ts as they discov e red that such and such was also entering College and that their precious offspring was ¡not to be left in an e ntirely unfamiliar world.

We rememb e r the good-byes. But strangely e nough it is here that the clarity ends and a murky haze descends upon our memories - and not. may we add, one of tears .

Short-term me mory loss sets in as we become caught in a whirl of senior gent activity - designed in theory for us, but perhap s more practically for the amusement of others. One fee ls experienced and mature having compl eted their final year at school , but it does not take us long to realise the naivety of this illusion. We thought we had entered College with a rather good notion of what streets. balconie s, and trees we re for. But 14

whether a pervading national boredom was the explanation for the noticeable growth of interest in things military. "It is true that there is a degree of military precision finding its way into events such as Juttoddie; however, I feel that one should look for the explanation of this phenomenon is society's subconscious search for finding ways to legitimise aggession", the Dean commented .

In his 1,1sual understanding and very liberal manner , the Dean went on to say that he felt events such as Juttoddie performed a cathartic role for a college community. " The exorcising of latent sado-masochistic tendencies in young adults through events such as Juttoddie is an important phas e in their psychosexual development; more importan tly, it is helpful if this catharsis takes place in the context of an approving and understanding community", the D ean added.

A participant in the symposium asked Dr. Deschamp whether the exorcising of his own S&M tendencies had been achieved by regular monastic self-flagellation.

While obviously embarrassed to be discussing the more arcane practices of monastic life that are commemorative of the sacred passion, the Dean did reluctantly add: "T here are those of my critics who would say that my sadistic tendencies are still being lived out in my role as Dean; I do know that my masochistic tendencies were quite adequately satisfied by 16 years of monastic selfflagellation and one former appearance at Juttoddie" .

The Dean wished all the participants in the forthcoming Juttoddie (both the afflicted and the inflicting) lots of Freudian fun.

(Address Press Queries: Mr Art hur Hills 347 1044)

disillusionment was not far away, and it did not take us long to learn that streets are for crawling along betwee n pub s, balcon ies for extendin g the legal drin king hours, and trees for holding onto as we stagger through a labyrinth of trenches while making our cautious way home to our respective rooms across the bulpadok.

And with its slightly animal connotations, bulp adok was not the only new word which was to enter our vocabularly . We learn t to cha nge our convent ional definitions of" fire" and "up ", and to .join the two words in a legendary expression of energy. As the yea r progressed we lea rnt the meaning of the word "knobblin g", however unwillingly, and we became accustom~d to the term "sniffing" - although perhaps for some 1t was a custom revisited.

But not all we have come to know is associated with debauch ery. We realise that our initiation activities do not just hap pen , and as we become more familiar with College life we lea rn to apprec iate the time and organ isation involved . While "fres her-shit" has a long period of purification, we do not fare badly .

Gently it begins . The lights dim and the unintelligible hum of our conversation gradually fades.

The weighty maroon velvet is raised revealing the simplicity of the setting; it is an empty stage, except , of course, for the fine instrument , its highly polished surface reflecting the almost mystical light Suddenly, in praise and anticipation there is applause as the young performer strides across the stage towards his piano.

Yet beneath our admiration there is something that is a little more harsh and unrelenting . He gazes back at us and swiftly, indeed confidently, he bows and positions himself.

Hesitating for just an instant . he then begins to play.

The sweet, c;:learnotes charm and lure us. His music reveals a strange vista and we realise a vision ot summer's conception. We are basking and reposing in an atmosphere fused with dappled sunlight and bathed in limitless colou r. But he demands more and pushes our indulgences onwards into the mauve haze of a moonless evening. And so too. we demand more, while over a distant coastline voluminous white clouds gather.

Suddenly his incessant music is loud and discordant and. the clouds illumined from within by a silvery bolt of lightening . Our pleasant reverie is disrupted . His dogged attempts to lead us make us weary and tense.

We long only to trace the gentle ripples of his music and to grasp the unearthly mood distilled from our vision .

The urgency is now painful and the previously rainless clouds replaced by those that are blackened. threatening and insidious. We are insular now. clinging to each other. insensitive to his pleas.

Gently it began and suddenly it ends . From our midst a tall and angular figure stands. while fevered and frantic the music continues . But then . without warning the pianist is silenced as the clouds' sudden fortissimo reaches a crescendo that resounds throughout our minds like no sound ever before.

The scene is now stark. On the stage, still flooded in harsh light, the body of the musician lays slumped upon his instrument A fine trickle of blood runs from his single. fatal wound along the keys and begins to collect in a small pool at his feet There is something cool and sweet in this simplicity .

We are hushed and still only momentarily and then grasp once again at the remnants of our longed for and treasured mood. Ruffling and swaying. gently jostling and mumbling. we gradually turn our backs to the stage and watch the figure slowly replacing the silver pistol into his pocket. It is complete now and our applause begins; and as we continue to wallow in the movement of the thunderous noise. the maroon curtain descends on the blackened stage.

A VOTIVE OBJECT An oriental wooden carving found its way into the collect ion of Dr. Peter Mackay early this year. This observation would be out of place in the College annals but for th e fact that the carving depicts a near-life-size image of th e lord Buddha beaming happily, casting his arms into the air and revelling in an undisguised ob esity. At the very least, this object constitutes a new sp irit ual element in the life of the College . (For things 'sp iritu al' see CHAPEL REPORT,above).

While it resided in the Senior Common Room, it was possible to look upon the figure as the amusing and harmless whim of a chemistry tutor . Its recent removal to Arthur's office, however. points to a proliferation of dark ritual and to the growth of a cult around the Buddha within Trinity College. ,..Jotlong ago I, myself, overhead the Warden advising a spell-bound visitor to t he College to pat the Buddha's bulging stomach "for luck". It is significant to note, in the context of the Warden's comment , that Dr. Burge spent his August holi day enmeshed in the tropical resort of Bali.

Can it be that a schism is developing within the coll ege community? Are members of the College seeking Nirvana by contemplating this pagan object?

Has, in short, Trinity College 's apparently enlightened attit ud e of ecumenism back-fired?

SOLITARYPLEASURES? To enter Trinity College as a student at a somewhat advanced age (relatively speaking) is not to be taken lightly. How is one to cope with all the nubile young nymphs cavorting in the corridors and bathrooms? How does one continue to have a private life amidst the continual conglomeration of the communal life of the College especially after enjoying a private and solitary life for so many years: Is this a conundrum too difficult to solve? Well, I have found that it is still possible to practise solitary pleasures among the varied life forms and styles of College .

Observing the strange behaviour of one's other inmates is one of the chief of these pleasures watching their mating calls and displays, the taking up and the putting down, the tribal dances and the continual interchange of participants - all this is a veritable treasure-trove for the voyeur of life in all its manifestations .

But this pleasure still requires other players in the scene, and my desire is rather to soliloquize . What can one do in the privacy of one's room which is pleasurable?

Reading is one answer to this perlexing question, and in the last two years I have renewed acquaintance with old friends - Austen , Dickens, Trollope , White, among others - and discovered new ones - AN . Wilson, Aiden Chambers, and Morna Hooker (Morna who?). Reading is a solitary pleasure 'par excellence', closely followed by listening to music, preferably opera - very loudly, unfortunately for my neightbours - at all hours of the day and night From the ravishing trios of Richard Strauss to the majestic choruses of Verdi to the plaintive love songs of Puccini! What utter pleasure they all give, especially when one can sing a duet with Sutherland or conduct the Berlin Philharmonic with von Karajan! Or in a more relaxed and mellow mood, to lounge in front of the open fire, glass of single malt whisky in one hand, a volume of John Betjeman's poems in the other, and Strauss's 'Four Last Songs' filling the room with an ecstasy of sound! Can Heaven be far away?

Walking or sitting quietly on the Bulpadok in the spring sunshine; praying or meditating in the Chapel, and watching the sun light up the young warrior saints in the windows; or listening to someone practising on the organ- these are a few more of my solitary pleasures in College.

But, in spite of all I have already said, my greatest and most important pleasures in College have not been solitary, but rather social. They have come from the many and varied friends I have made in my time here the wonderful people whom I have come to know and love. The friendship of these other denizens of sundry College rooms, and the wonderful. stupid, silly and enjoyable activities in which we have shared, and the long and fascinating discussions we have had in the vast stretches of the night, in tears or laughter- thi s to me is

worth more than all the solitary pleasures in which I have indulged . It is what has made my two years at Trinity a time of enrichment. learning and joy. It is what Shakespeare must have meant when he had Richard II say: "I count myself in nothing so happy as in a soul remembering my good friends.'

CHAPEL REPORT Pro Ecclesia ...

Despite suggestions of converting the outside into a hang-gliding launch-pad and the inside into an indoor swimming pool and leisure centre, our chapel of the Most Holy and Glorious Trinity remains in daily use for its consecrated purpose: the worship of God. Although Anglican worship, like hang-gliding. may not be everyone's cup of tea. it nevertheless gives expression to that part of our life which sometimes seems clear. rational and undeniable yet at other times seems difficult, irrelevant , or merely a fanciful fable; that which we variously describe as the spiritual. the transcendent, faith. belief in God. Whether you go to chapel frequently, occasionally or never, people continue to gather at regular times to celebrate God's love for us all. People who go to chapel do so because they feel drawn there; and as St John the Baptist was thought of as a wowser and Jesus was regarded by many as a glutton, a drunkard and a blasphemer. those who dare to darken the chapel doorstep also run the risk of being misunderstood by others .

After nearly seventy years the chapel has undergone extensive renovations this year. This has been possibie due to the generosity of Mr Robert Cripps . The renewal of the building - the stonework and glass - may possibly act as a tangible reminder to us of the renewal process which is at the heart of the Christian Faith.

Going to chapel as an expression of one's faith is incomplete without the accompanying. on-going process of renewal; of allowing oneself to be renewed not only in fajth but in one\ whole life, in opinion, in lifestyle. in relationships, in love. Our thanks go to the Chaplain. Fr Peter. for his work in co-ordinating and leading chapel life for 1983.

enthusiastic freshers turned up at the beginning of Oweek indicates that the system does work! Other ~dministrative duties have included oversight of the library and student keys, and membership of the Executive and Finance Committee and the College Council.

With respect to pastoral concerns. I have tried, whenever possible. to attend all the major sporting, cultural and social activities. in addition to helping a number of students on a one-to-one basis. A highlight of my year was my participation in Juttoddie, from which 1 emerg~d not with egg on my face but a fiberal helping of pomdge thoroughly ground into my beard . Even Lady didn't recognize me!.

Due to the generosity of Mr. Robert Cripps , the fabric of the Chapel is in the process of being repaired and restored. thus enhancing the setting for the daily round of worship, as well as the increasing number of concerts given by musical groups . This year there has been strong support for the Thursday night College Eucharist At these there have been some wonderful musical offerings organized by Alex Scutt and Andrew McGowan. as well as challenging and exciting sermons by a series of distinguished guest preachers.

In addition there have been some inspiring special services in the Chapel, notably the festival of Lessons and Carols (11/ 12/ 82). the Holy Week and Easter services (March/ April. I 983). our Patronal Festival (5/ 6/ 83). and the Valedictory Service and Comm.emoration of Founders and Benefactors (9/ I 0/ 83). The Chaplain has been called upon also to conduct occassional services

CHAPLAIN'S REPORT 1983 has been a busy and fruitful year. As Chaplain. I have three main areas of responsibility - a general pastoral .over sight of staff and students, together with certain aspects of College administration; the Chapel; and the Theological School.

With respect to administration, the main concern has been the co-ordination of the admissions programme.

This has involved much time. especially in the first two months of the year, in interviews. consultation. letter writing, compilation of lists and so on. The fact that 112

for former students of the College, especially weddings, of which there has qeen quite a number this year. One of the most memorable was the wedding of Peter McKay and Janet Anderson in May. Then there is the Theological School. This year has seen the largest numb er of students in recent times ....:.. ten residents, ten non-residents and eight associates.

Thus I have been involved in a busy round of activities - the daily offices, the Friday p rogramme of additional activities and lectures, and the pastoral care of students. Also, for the first t ime, there has been an involvement in the lecturing programme of the United Faculty of .Theology. On Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, I have assisted Dr. Denham Grierson with the first and second year Religious Education programmes. This has been an invaluable but time consuming exercise.

With regard to our own family, Barbara and I celebrated the arrival of our fourth grandchild on the 28th of June. Barbara was in Perth to welcome Trevor into the world, and also to give assistance to our eldest daughter in Boulder, W.A., who spent some time in hospital. Helen hopes to gain her H.S.C this year at University High School and ret urn next year to W.A. to study at Muresk Agricultural College.

All in all, 1983 has been a happy and profitable year.

Barbara and I took forward to our continuing involvement at Trinity.

- sen ior devil to a junior devil Screwtape LettersCS. Lewis The Christian Fellowship really only became a functional group (apologies to the chemists) after our first camp in September last year. Suddenly people seemed actually to want to come to the meetings . After another camp in December, we were looking forward to even better things this year.

In this we were not disappointed, with about 20 people turning up to the first meeting, following on from a successful concert with the Rev. Alan Cadwallader in 0. week. The regular weekly meetings continued to be well attended, even when people started to realise that being at Uni still implied doing a certain amount of study. These meetings saw us discussing issues of mutual importance, often with a Biblical basis, singing songs (to the occasional annoyance of Upper Clarke residents-we do try to sing in tune) and have supper together.

The first camp for the year, near the end which used to be a church. This was a good time for getting to know some of the new members of the group better, and also to rething some of the group's aims. The second camp in September at Belgrave Heights was as successful.

During the year, the CF . has been involved in some activities with the Inter-Collegiate Christian Fellowship .

The most memorable of these activities was the visit to Trinity of John Smith, who spoke on the topic "Eros or Logos - $ex, meaning and Identity" during his two weeks at Melbourne Uni. About fifty heard the talk , and the prolonged time of serious question s at the end suggested that his words had intere sted many of those present This meeting was probably the high point of an enjoyable and fruitful year for the CF.

Amidst the horrifying debasement of the English language, we strive to hold aloft our small light of erudition and suscitation, a lonely David in constant battle with the ever-increasing forces of the Philistines .

We found an ally in the Orientation Week Committee, with whom we joined forces to present a 'Walk in the .Gardens', where in a haze of gin arid Pimms in the gazebo, a tasteful reading of some of the literary gems of our English inheritance took place. On a somewhat less elevated level. but nonetheless successful for all that, an inaugural ·o Week' Trivia Quiz was held, to everyone's amusement and enjoyment. As a completely unexpected bonus, the Senior Gents also defeated the Freshers in the ·o Week' debate: "That lying back and closing ones eyes is no substitute for thinking of England."

A second Trivia Quiz was conducted in second term, where many sciolistic reputations ware shattered, and some made . The vast storehouse of trivia which is Trinity College is a constant source of wonder and delight. Prior to this popular event the General Knowledge Quiz was held in first term, and this year the theological school did not manage to rise to the previous two year's high standard and a somewhat ,more secular team won the excellent champagne.

The 1983Wigram Allen Essay Competition produced some splendid pieces of writing, and the large audience enjoyed the readings by the respective authors, and eagerly agreed with the judge from the University English Department , Fr. Peter Steel SJ, that Angus Trumble' s I ittle exegesis on the works of Beatrice Potter deserved to win the prize . We were also delighted to have the University Chaplain, Fr. Roger Sharr, entertain us with a truly understated reading of his winning essay from 1976.

Debating has enjoyed a resurgence this year in College, with a number of teams competing in an intracollege competition, which took place on Thursday lunchtimes before large and appreciative audiences .

We have again been successful in inter-collegiate debating, and the team , comprising Samantha KirwanHamilton , Richard Hall. Richard Allen and Andrew McGowan has upheld the College's high standard of debating .

Our final event of the year was the Art Show and this produced an exceptionally high standard of work, reflecting . the enormous and varied artistic talents within the college, talents which must be fostered and encouraged .

I would like to thank the committee: Tim Lindsey, Andrew Messenger, Charles Gilles and Robert Sitch for all their help during the year in keeping the standard raised high against the Philistine hordes which continually threaten to engulf us.

THE REVUE 1982

The Revue is unlike any othe r College function; its essence is the impromptu, its strength, inspiration.

Unique among dramatic events it is totally unrehearsed as a show, and its usual saviour is a theme to hold it all together , this time: "the Commonwealth Games". The audience was asked to wear 'Chariots of Fire' dress and munched anabolic steroids while precariously perched on the stacked chairs and tables of the diningroom. The more hardened and foolhardy reprobates even braved the terrors of "CHATEAU LEGOPNRE" made freely available by the wine-cellar as part of a successful plot to rid the world of this delicate and much-maligned beverage forever.

It is impossible and perhaps imprudent to mention every act However, one should recall the more memorable and less tasteful of the performances .

"Donald Duck's Orgasm " by J.J.H. Mitchell can well be placed in both catagories. Wno can. forget the "That's Incredible" slide show? Certainly not Angela Mackie, whose hair (much to the scriptwriters' annoyance) has descended _from its previously lofty heights for good .

The Dean, who bravely sits in the front row at every revue, smiled nobly through his .usual ordeal. taken to new extremes by Andrew Messenger (and dressinggown) in "Bryan and the Beast". Perhaps the most inflammatory sketch of all was the very thoroughly rehearsed "Alex Brothers", with a charming rock 'n' roll number 'DonGrilli Blues·, a performance marred only by a minor bout of forgetfulness and the College chefs resignation at verse two closely followed by his reinstatement at verse four.

On a more respectable musical note Julian Mitchell gave his version of 'Sounds of Silence' with Ruth Hobson followed by some more traditional blues with Andrew Maughan. Will Baylis displayed his hidden yet impressive talent for the piano while the TroianiSutherland-Jobling band (You need a better na~e than that fellas). gave a trip down memory lane for those who could remember the ball.

For more organised drama there was the infamous "Jack High" sketch by Tim Morris, Richard Roach and Richard Allen . We all ought to thank Rice for bringing 19

the power of the Lawn Bowl into our hearts. Then t here was the "Creation of theColleg e" from Margaret Kirby with the immortal Richard "Rota" Roach as a bored and taciturn God. What it lacked in holiness was made up for in colour-paint went everywhere.

Less decorative but just a entertaining was "A Dayin the Life of Ivan Trinitivi ch", in which Tim Klingender revealed himself in his incisive incarnation of "Strudel Head".

The climax of the show was the final appearance of Elvis. Mr Presley's agent, Andrew Lyle, presented to us the epitome of Memphis' favourite son - the dyed hair the tan, the sidies and the sequine-stitched suit. He gave us the classics, "Houndog", 'Hunk of Burning Love¡, and in 'Falling in Love' handed to his screaming fans official souvenir scarves; some over-anxious girls had to be controlled by Mr Presley's body-guards. Rex Pirie, Julian Mitchell and Andrew Cox and the Andrew Cole Singers supported him magnificently.

It was truly gratifying when the hall was cleared away in just thirty minutes by actors and audience alike. The hysterical M.C. would like to thank all involved .

A GAMEAT CHESSE

by Thomas Middleton Vatican Lawn, Trinity College May 4th - 7th, 10th - 12th, 14th

". . . one of the most complete and exquisiteworksof artistic thateverexcit ed oroffended, enraptur ed or ingenuityanddexterity scandalisedan audience of friendsor enemies . . " Swinburne1887 At its conception the spirit of the Drama Society's interpretation of A Game at Chesse was almost as audacious as the nature of Middleton's play itself . This spirit, as it hovered about us through first term, provided ample fuel for the sceptics - was not the play, with its seventeenth century language and political and religious allegory , an unsuitable choice and would not the early days of May bring rain on the outdoor stage?

But the inspiration and imaginative direction of Mark Williams coupled with the magic of theatrical fantasy made the spirit increasingly sustaining for those involved . Throughout nine intense weeks the displays of emotional and creative energy, good humour , dedication, enthusiasm and glimpses at the potential richness of production gave us hope of success.

The value of such a group artistic endeavour was witnessed repeatedly as slowly the characters developed or the scenes were given form, be it on a sunny afternoon at play camp on the rolling lawns of Mawollock, or midst the sleepiness and pain of an early Sunday morning rehearsal. But so too: the entire production was extremely delicate and vulnerable. The 20

involvement of so many of the College's resources required the co-ordination of a diversity of dramatic, artistic, musical and technical talents and skills so that they complimented rather than crippled or inhibited each ot!her. In addition there was the ever present burden of the financial and structural complexities of the ambitious staging; and of course the nagging reminders of potentially poor weather.

The spirit was most domineering in the first days of May. A stage and lighting were eventually erected on a section of Vatican Lawn with the Leeper building forming a backdrop. This was an astounding achievement in itself. Large, painted canvasses served to frame the drama and emphasise the symbo lism of the play. The characters t hemse lves were given the most elaborate and dramatic of costumes. And the whole was given support by members of the Music Society.

Indeed it proved a rich and intricate production . In retrospect it still seems ditficult to imagine how we overcame many of the problems encounted. But needless to say, it would not have been possible without the efforts, contributions and resourcefulness of the cast and crew. To those who gave the final product remains a tribute . Finally I would like to give my thanks to everyone concerned with A Game N Chesse,but in particular Mark, whose fine artistry, wisdom and friendship made him more than a pleasure with whic h to work.

A CRITIC'SVIEW 'We canremarkin passingthatthere is nobetter startingpointfor thoughtthan laught er."

A Game at Chesse by Thomas Middleton was the courageous but exciting . and ultimately successful choice of the Drama Society for their 1983 production .

The play was written in 1624, and deals with the fruitless attempts which were being made to unite the royal houses of England and Spain, but in spite of the play's popularity Middleton was severely admonished for having written it, and was.perhaps imprisoned . He uses a chess game as a metaphor for the two royal houses and their intrigues- a metaphor which is ably sustained throughout the course of the play.

The imaginative costumes continued this Jacobean flavour, effectively setting off the white and black chess pieces, while placing the play firmly in its historical situation. The very professional -musical accompaniment, led by Elizabeth Claxton and Andrew Keck, also contributed to the Renaissance/ Jacobean atmosphere of the play.

A Gameat Chesserelies for its effect predominately on its humour, and there was plenty of it in this production.

Julian Mitchell and Duncan MacFarlane made two wonderfully seedy bishops, with Julian's drunken antics seeming to be a somewhat natural ability, and eliciting loud guffaws of laughter from many sections of the audience . Kate Smallwood, as the White Queen, was diminutive but more than made up for this lack in her enthusiastic acting, especially when she was in danger of being raped by the Fat Bishop.

The audiences especially enjoyed the 'feast' at the court of the Black King, where Andrew Messenger, as the White Duke, did his best to upstage everyone else with a banana. Andrew was a suitable companion to James Griffith's White Knight. a foppish. egotistica l character whom one couldn't quite like, yet one who elicited our sympathy and applause as he outwitted the Black Knight and his rascally companions.

The comic character 'par excellence' was the Fat Bishop, played to the hilt by Tim Lindsey. With plentiful padding and effective make-up, this lecherous , rancid bishop was brought fully to life, and Tim revelled in the role, endeavouring to corrupt all with whom he came into contact. It was a great pity that he too had to be dispatched to the 'bag' - for he was 'much put upon' .

The undoubtedly fully evil creation was that of the Jesuitical Black Bishop's Pawn, played admirably by David Larsen. His scheming and plotting were the mainsprings of much of the action of the play, and David portrayed this Pawn as a suitably evil and corrupt priest, although there was sometimes rather too much caricature involved - a little more subtlety would have been appreciated.

The Black Bishop's Pawn was joined in his devilish 1 schem ing by the Black Queen's Pawn, and in this role Clare Flor ence proved to be a mistress of guile and

deceit Her varied talents were ably displayed and her outwitting of the Black Bishop's Pawn was greatly appreciated by the audience.

Guy Le Couteur a suitably devious Black Knight, although he often delivered his dialogue as if ruminating to himself on the banks of the Yarra. But his characterisat ion was consistent throughout the play, and he did figure in an especially inspired .scene between himself and the Fat Bishop, while seated on a commode. Here we saw some very good comic acting, which moved along at a good pace.

As the innocent in this farrago of deceit, Samantha Kirwan - Hamilton's White Queen's Pawn stood out as a lum inous beacon of purity and virginity, the unwitting plaything of the Black side in this interesting game.

Samantha managed to sustain this character throughout the play, at the same time remaining believable and still innocent - not an easy task in the face of the machinations of the Church!

As for the other membe rs of this enjoyable romp, space allows me only to say that their acting ranged from the very good and more than adequate to those characterisations which had all the flexibility of a telegraph pole.

Yet. as a whole, this produc t ion had more than its fair share of wit, humour, action and style. In spite of the ,complications of the plot, the audience became engrossed in the action on the stage, and was enthusiastic in its applause and commendation.

A Gameat Chesse was a thoughtful and enjoyable piece of theatre, bawdy but not obscene, clever but not overindulgent, intelligent but not obscure - a fitting showpiece for the fine talents of the Director Mark Williams and the members of the College Drama Society.

MUSIC COMMITfEE REPORT When the committe e di scove red that more than e ighty of the freshers had on their Trinity application forms expressed a special inte rest in music, we natur ally d id not believe them. This year, however, it t urned out t nat many of them were act ually telling the truth . Wit h a number of musically-minded seniors also in coll ege, the result has been a great year for the Music Societypossibly the best ever.

The year got off to an unobtrusive start early in February. A clarinet duet added some 18th century elegance (ie. Mozart) to t he Fleur-de-lys pre-dinner drinks around the Oak. Later in February, on the fin al Sunday of 0-Week, a musical setting was given to the wine-tasting on the Bulpadok. Strains of Pachelbel's Canon and Eine Kleine Nachtmusik wafted across t he Bulpadok as a quartet of flute and strings contribut ed to the relaxed tone of the afternoon .

During drinks before the fresher's dinner , John Thorn and Niki Yeo's jazz trio gave us some enervating background music, John doing his best with the then rather dilipidated )CR piano.

Both the quartet and trio contributed to the ·success of the Friends of Trinity picnic in April, playing alternate brackets in a type of open-air concert as the picnic progressed. It was good to have two such diverse styles, each of them good both as background and to listen to.

On the 20th of April occurred the first concert for the year. This was notable for being the most varied concert for some time in Trinity . Items ranged from a romantic flute concerto played by Alison Thomson, to some Asian folks0ngs with the pianist Yi Mien Koh, through to Guy Le Couteur singing 'The birth of the Blues', and John and Niki's jazz group .

At the end of first term the Music Society provided , incidental music to the very successful production of the Drama Club. This was quite a challenge . We had to find (and sometimes write) music appropriate to various points in the p lay, and then arrange it for the instruments available. As A Game at Chesse is an early seventeenth century play, most of the music chosen came from that period. It included music from early baroque operas, renaissance dances, and madrigals.

The ensemble of musicians raised from night to night varied, being a combination of one flute, two violins, two clarinets and a cello. We played on the ground floor of the library , between book shelves, wires, lighting equipment and microphones , directly behind the stage. This not only enabled us to see and hear what was happening on stage, but as an added bonus allowed us to glimpse a side of Guy not often revealed in public! Many thanks to the players (twelve in all) who devoted so much time , to Liz Claxton who arranged muc h of the music, and of course to Mark, Sam, cast and crew for being constantly helpful and appr eciative.

On July 10th a packed Cripps Room listened to an

24

even ing of Renaissance and Baroque music. For th is concert we had the novelty (for Trinity) of a harpsichord, on wh ich Alex Scutt performed several items. One of the memorable moments of the evening was Nina Treadwell and friend's guitar duet, the seat ing arrangement of which quite scandalized the aud ience.

Second term also saw what must have been the musical highlight of the year, the Mus ic Society 's production of Trial by Jury (see separate item).

On September 13th nearly sixty peop le managed to sq uash into the S.R.C.to see Glenn Ridd le's final Trini ty ·concert before his departure to Vien na to study w ith the famous p ianist Paul Badura-Skoda. The evening was a fitt ing salute to Glenn who has done much for t he musical life of col lege in his four years here.

Last year saw a revita li sed Trini ty Mus ic Society. This year coll ege music has been even richer . The only unfortun ate aspects of th is year's mus ic-making have ben t he lack of a choir (alt hough there has certai nly bee n alot of singing) and t he sorry state of the music room pi ano. In 1983 we have heard much more music, and a much greater variety of music than in past years.

St ill more musical happe nings aroun d Trinity includ e the poun di ng rock of 'Red ' emergi ng from the music room every Friday, the playing of organ-scholar Tony Way, and the use of t he JCR pi ano. If the same ent husiasm and variety can be mainta ined , 1984 may see an even bette r year for music in the college.

Thanks must go to all the pe rformers and audiences ~ho made all this possib le (after all, t he Mus ic Society 1s the whole coll ege, not just the committee) . Special thanks also to t he commi ttee for all t heir invaluab le suppo rt and assistance, and for p utt ing up wit h me.

TRINITY COLLEGE ROYALISTSOCIETY To some the events that came to pass on the morning of April 14th, 1983, were equivalent in stature and importance to an audience with the Pope, front-row tickets at a Rolling-Stones concert, or being invited to one of the Aga Khan's America's Cup parties .

Ever since the announcement of the intended walk down the Bourke Street Mall by their Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess Of Wales, the Royalist fraternity of Trinity College began planning their debut before the Royal Couple .

The dinner suites, flowers, suitable selections from the English Hymnal, and deck chairs, were undoubtedly instrumental in the success of our mission . However , we came to realise in the ' early morning absence of any other well wishers, let alone security men; that we were a trifle over-zealous in our 5 am stake-out in the Bourke Street Mal I. Right from the outset I feel it to be only right and proper that I completely quash the malevolent and totally unfounded rumours that the whole exercise was merely a sophisticated media campaign in the efforts of certain Trinity Law Students to secure their articles .

(Mind-you, I did find the photo in the Woman's Day, of the Royal Highness et moi, rather becoming). However, ¡1find such wanton dispersions upon the fine character of the T.C.R.S. bordering on the heretical.

For those who did participate in greeting the Princess of Wales, and even more importantly for those present who firmly believe in a Constitutional Monarchy, the whole morning was a totaly unforgetable and exhilerating experience . The underlying anxiety of whether our preparations would pay off; the exhileration of leading hundreds of people in singing Land of Hope and Glory , and God Save The Queen; and the real hysteria of those within the group and the sea of people pressing in upon us, before the long awaited moment ; were some of the elements which combined together to create the rarified atmosphere of a fantasy come true.

The aftermath was equally memorable . Members of the group still murmured in semi-shock. "J don't believe we did it". while being bombarded with questions from the British and Australian press. That afternoon as the assembled party drifted back to earth in the Windsor Hotel, I felt the deep personal satisifcation of one who had unashamedly achieved a long-term ambition in expressing his devotion and loyalty to both an essential and worthwhile institution and the people who so ably fulfil its offices.

ART ROOM It takes an idea a single year to become an institution in Trinity, two to become a tradition. This is nowhere more true than of the Art Room. From a shaky birth last year among the cobwebs and broken piping of the disused laundry , extensive renovation and popular enthusiasm has created a viably important and .productive facility .

Several weekends of devoted scrubbing, mopping and scraping by dedicated and dusty artists revealed . the full size of the room and its extensive state of disrepair . This problem was eventually solved by the prov lsion of working sinks and plumbing (essential for painting or sculpture), courtesy of Mike Moro's ubiquitous and omnicompetant mates in the R.S.L. This year saw the beginnings of the Art Room's social life, a seamy, flamboyant and visually spectacular world of its own. Notable and notorius in this catagory was the Bohemian Night , a wine and cheese evening (in tlieory) !

This extraordinary event took place in the Art Room, unrecognisable with its heavy drapes, clustered tables, candle-light. light conversation and heavy music. Those who attended wore appropriate 'rive gauche ',

25

bohemian costum es.

Artist ically thi s year has b een successful beyo nd expectations, with a surpri singly large cross-section of College Memb ers making use of th e facility . The College Ball's innovat ive decorati ons, lif esize standin g figurin es and four met re hanging banners in th e styl e of Jazz era, were executed in a frenzi ed communal effort in th e Art Room (with t he help of over twenty peopl e) unde r the inspi red leadership of John Carruth ers, Tiffany McNab and Lisa Landy. A similar situation produc ed the back-drop s for the pl ay 'A Game at Chesse'.

Most memorable of all perhaps was an exhibi t ion of Tiffany McNab's and David Harley's paintings and drawings . This showed the enthusiasm that prevails in Trinity of both the artists and their aud ience, further demonstrated by the Art Show over the last two year.

Finally, remember that th e Art Room is open to everyone and t hat keys may be obtained from the College Office at any time .

THE ART ROOM EXHlBITION From the first to the th ird of August, thi s year, an exhibi t ion of paint ings, prin ts and drawings by Tiffany McNab and David Harley was moun ted in th e Art Room.

The celebrat ion at the op ening of this sho~ by the Warden was surely one of the highlights of Trinity Coll ege's Bohemian calendar . The Art Room and the adjoi1:ingWynne Tutori al Room, both lavishly bestrewn with _japoni ca, provid ed a perfect setting for the wellconsider ed arrangement of the works which attracted the gaze of many membe rs of the college at this glamorous preview.

As the viewer entered the main room, he was confronted by canvasses which quickly conveyed Tiffany McNab's bold use of paint in broad, rhythmic brushstrokes of rich, clear colour. She enjoys using paint for its own effects yet Tiffany uses it to construct substantial, often geometric and well-delineated forms like the old man in her "Oil Study". In her "graphic" work , Tiffany concentrates on fast and expressive drawing of animals and of people. Her interest in Edith Sitwell as a subject (in the vibrant lino-cut of Edith Sitwell based on Cecil Beaton's famous photograph, for example) and in wild animals, reveals the assertive nature of her character and the strong self-confidence of her work Dame Edith, it seems, attracts fervent admirers many years after her death .

David Harley, on the ot her hand, has a much more introverted concentration on the texture of the surface whether it is the ridged and lumpy effect of layers of acrylic or oil paint on canvas finished with glazes; or the delicate effects of the etcher's needle or aquatint. His colours are noticeably darker than Tiffany's, his work more brooding and his portraits, often rather haunting, more revealing of his own character than that of his sitter s. He spends longer on indjvidual paintings and often returns to them to alter, revise or resolve areas with which he is unsatisfied . The tentative gaze of the half-turned heads in David's self-portraits reveals the cautious and reflective way in which he creates. The portraits , still-life and interior studies as well as the cemetery drawings and etchings are all works which come from David's love of the static and of the reflective .

David and Tiffany respond to similar themes required of their course with an un-self-conscious directness and observe each other with sometimes humorous objectivity. Their joint exhibition sets a high standard for subsequent shows, yet succeeded in raising the status of the rustic converted laundry from that of a mere Art Room to that properly attached to a studio.

IN THE MOOD

Amongst the palms stood the figures, the first thing to catch the eye upon entering. Bright young things, enveloped in pearls or snapping open cigarett e cases, contrasted with the negro saxophonists and trumpeters. Between them were chocolates in baskets, a tab le of roses, button-hole carnations and rows of cigars. Then in through the main doors, to the strains of the Trinity JazzQuartet and into the hall itself . The Hall; bedecked with palms, Tuxedo Junction ready to play and the high imposing banners . It conjured up an era, a mood, making an auspicious opening to a night to remember .The Trinity College Ball in many ways was a milestone .

It was the product of a large cross-section of the College, it tried the patience of both the Town Hall and the TCAC close to the limit. Above all it made a statement, showing what could be done with the resources of the College, given the enthusiasm and the support of its members .

The very notion of a Ball is a confused and a confusing one. Most tertiary institutions annually hold what might be described as a Ball, however, these functions have very little in common other than this shared title . At the polar extremes lie the dinner dance and the rock concert; the former when the music is poor, the latter when it is loud. Neither is satisfactory and neither is a Ball in the true sense of the word . The dominating concern of a Ball must be neither the food nor the location nor, as is increasingly the habit. the music.

Rather, it must be the atmosphere, something created by all these factors but not dependent on any of them . It is the .sense of style needed for this purpose which has been allowed to lay waste over the past few years.

This was the policy initiated in many ways by the innovations of I 982, pursued and expanded by the Ball committee of this year. It was not an easy task, given the varying and strongly expressed opir:iions of tho se who had not volunteered to join the committee.

Our ambition s suffered a blow when the World Trad e Centre led us into a booking confusion , informing us in term two that they would not be availabl e. One of the major concerns of the committee had been to find a new and exciting venue . The Town Hall. although convenient. is severely limited in capacity and by very restrictive by-laws; it is also very, familiar to Ball-goers!

Although the Board of the National Gallery generously granted us permission to use their Great Hall and adjoining courtyard, the prohibitive cost forced us back to the Town Hall (hopefully for the last time, as the W.T.C.is provisionally booked for 1984).From this point the efforts of the committee were dedicated to the making of the Ball as different and as stylish as we could. The banners, cigars, chocolates and flowers are the products of their enthusiasm. Thanks, ther~fore, must go to the committee for this image of style in the face of the W.T.C.,Bill Nemuth and me! Congratulations are due to all but especially to John Carruthers , Paul Bower, Tim Roberts and ). Craig Brown.

28

"In The Mood" was amongst the very best of this year's Balls and there are very good reasons for this . It stands well as an exhortation to t he 1984committee: Be stylish, be imaginative, be amb itiou s and, above all. work hard.

LADIESAND GENTIEMEN

Allow me to relate to you a fairy story. It will inevitably begin "once upon a time", however, its conclusion will be for you, the audience to decide.

I shall begin by introducing the two central characters: there is a cast of a thousand but the significance of these two is that they shall conduct our journey, a journey that commences on the night of the I 984 Trinity College Ball.

Our leading male is eighteen and a lanky fresher studying science at Melbourne University. His attire is the traditional black tie; his grandfather's doublebreasted wool coat with well-worn satin lapels, slightly mottled around the edges by silverfish, over a crumpled cricket shirt (collar turned up). He is wearing his brother's clip on bow tie, black trousers with grass stains on both knees and his school shoes which were last polished in 1981. Our young gentleman, named Gordon, is excited' about the prospect of his first ball.

Gordon's partner for t he night is Alice . She is well known around college, especially for her happy smiles, forgetful nature and great legs. Alice is wearing a steely blue tafetta dress with white frills around the neck.

Unfortunately it is stained in two places once on the hem-line at the rear from the Queens Ball, the other most of the way down the right side from when Ralph, a third and less significant character in this story, t hrew up on Alice at the Scholar's dinner.

Gordon leaves coll ege for the Ball, Alice in one hand and his eskie in the other. After a short walk down T in Alley they board a Swanston Street tram with eig hty-five other expectant guests, a somewhat intim ate part of the journey. As the tram and all its passengers cross Collins Street, Gordon is aware t hat for the first time in many years that the Coll ege Ball is not to be held in the Melbourne Town Hall. This momentary diversion soon pales as Gordon realises that the crush of the crowded tram has brought Alice's left bosom within four inches of his face. A sharp jolt, a screech of brakes and the crowd swel Is off the tram and down the steps to the riverbank beside the Princes Bridge. The rendezvous is successful as a launch gent ly edges towards the

docking point, to allow the next group aboard. Gordon and Alice are on quickly and move towards t he front of the boat Champagne is served as they are ferried downstream along the Yarra. Within minutes the World Trade Centre is in sight.

Disembarking from the stationary can be difficult even at the best of times, but from a mobile vessel it is almost impo ssible. The inimitable Ralph lunged shoreward just a moment too soon. He scrambled and scaled his way up the side wall of the jetty to the cheers of the onlooking crowd. Surely it was Divine intervention that had kept him dry, however the ordeal had caused his as yet unopened bottle of Bundaberg rum to slip from his right hand coat pocket to a watery grave. Gordon and Alice console Ralph at his loss as they precede to the entrance.

The path to the door is now clearly visible along the red carpet which folds its way up the monumental waterfront stair. The queue there bustles with excitement, which is enhanced by a fireworks displa y.

The splendour and colour of this spectacle are amplified by the reflections in the river and the glass of surround ing buildings. At the threshold of the Centre the tickets are presented for verification. Two steps before t he entrance level Gordon's clammy palms begin to search for his ticket each pocket in turn. That feeling of panic that comes when on realises that the ticket is back in college, is averted when in a flash he remembers that Alice has been entrusted with both of their tickets. In fact Alice had produced them from her hand-bag almost two minutes earlier; Gordon was not noted for his powers of observation.

Having had the tickets certified and stamped, our couple are exposed to the brilliance of the Galleria . The Galleria is a vast space within t he World Trade Centre, delineated by crisp, white concrete surfaces and the crystallinity of glass. The roof is clear and flooded in light. from it are suspended banners, bold in their green, red and white. While the guests mingle on the two levels of the Galleria, the initial tone is set by the background music of the string quartet. the tempo will be raised later on as swing . and then rock bands follow.

At th is stage we shall leave our young innocen ts, it is up to you to finish their fairy tale, for their story has provided me with the opportunity to deal with the underlying reason for this essay. As a logical extension of the development in the Ball that has occured over the past two years, and to continue the trend towards sophist ication and style. I believe that the opportunity exists to dramatically change the character of the Ball, with a new location fitting for a Ball that has come of age.

At the World Trade Centre, a committee can be bold and creative and I hope that I may have helped to plant an idea, one which could blossom with the new spirit of the Trinity College Ball in 1984. With your 'support, Gordon's fantasy with Alice wi ll come true.

Good luck.

OUTREACH REPORT The Outreach Program has changed in its emphasis this year. Rather than only involving interested students in various work programmes in Community Welfare, we have also concentrated our aid in finance.

This change was not intenc;led to be a "cop out", in fact we believe it was a good decision enabling the whole College to have some level of involvement in Community help. In a lot of ways this is far more realistic as at this stage in our careers we could well be at a loss as to what we can personally do to aid the plight of others less fortunate. And , whilst we are not yet able to give in a professional capacity, we can give our time to raise money in the form of sponsorship and direct aid.

So, this year, Trinity took part in Community Aid Abroad's, "Walk Against Want"; a Relief Appeal for the fire victims and also our continui .ng aid of Raymond Pierre, our Foster Child. In addition to this some students volunteered their time to tutor H.S.C.students from some of the inner city High School~.

Thanks to all who have been involved, particula_rlyto Patricia Luckander, who positively excelled lierself in the "Walk Against Want" by raising over $200.

We sincerely hope that Trinity's Outreach continues, as we bel ieve it important to have a committment and involvement in the surrounding Community.

All the best for next year.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB This has been a remarkable year for the T.C.P.C.It has been one that has seen us produce and sell more photos than ever in the club's short history, and still avoid making a profit The hours at work put in by the committee, in particular Tim Morris, the Honorary Secretary for no reward other than to support their habit (I mean photography, not developer-sniffing), have been almost phenomenal.

The complete re-organisation of the darkroom, including the installation of some controversial new shelving, has not only made it much more enjoyable to use, but has put the club in a posit ion where it can teach members of the college how to use the darkroom.

About fffteen people enrolled in formal classes,taken by Tim, Richard Hill and myself, which began in September. Judging by the response to these classes, 1984 should be the most productive year yet

A CAUTIONARY TALE As 1983 draws to a close, the time has come for a proximate, yet objective, observer to record for posterity one feature of Trinity 1983.I do this, not out of a belief that College life is best encapsulated in this story, but to ensure that the mistakes of history are not repeated. It is a story of a wasted and wanton life of seduction and sedition, and of amusement laced with pathos. I refer to Ralph Ward-Ambler and his Lower Clarke harem.

Pictured above in some of his typical poses Sir Ralph's relationship with the devastating damsels of Lower Clarke, was always an ambivalent one. Setting himself up as a father-figure to the artless freshettes, Ralph soon found himself , to be their innermost confidant Many was the time distressed members of his flock would knock sadly on the slid and secure door of Lower Clarke 7 to seek comfort and reassurance from the strong presence of Lord Ward-Ambler of East Malvern. ¡Lovers came and went but Ralph was eternal.

The broken hearts he mended, the shattered egos he nursed, the morality he guarded .

Unfortunately, the constant flow of attentive fillies proved too much for the legendary self-control of Ayatollah Ralph. Quietly, his heart blackened and his intentions turned foul. Cruelly and callously , he

exploited his position of respect for short-term amorous gains. Showering the unsuspecting with gifts of food and more, Czar Ralph offered Premiums and Port at bizarre mating rituals conducted at two in the morning, his stereo system a technological siren's song.

A simple cherubic face maseked, Dorian Gray - like a sinister character whose evil was recognised by few. As time played out its inevitable game and the Master Plan unfolded, Reichsfuhrer von Ward-Ambler brutally manipulated the emotions . and affections of his changes, dispensing favours to only the select few feeling a spirit of competition and disharmony amongst the lovely ladies of Lower Clarke. The conniving tunes of the Pied Piper of Trinity led a series of emotional virgins through a frenzied initiation, which was watched with ever increasing horror by objective onlookers.

In the end, we must learn a lesson from this unhappy tale of potential and failure . Never again should we allow a young man such as Emperor Ralphanzo I rise to a position of such respect and power amongst the fresher community. Never again can we stain the innocence and purity of our freshettes with the brutal sexual cunning of a Casanova-Ambler. But more importantly, we must strain to encourage a more realistic and accurate perception of the true moral status of those whose friendship we accept

SCAVENGER HUNTING: BEG, BORROW OR KIDNAP

1.00 pm. The judge s are impres sed.

1.05 pm : The judges learn we come from Trinity. We are immediat ely relegated to third place.

3 pm, Wednesday July 30: A group of determined, ruthless scavengers pore over a list of potential scavengees. Bruce Mansfield? Dave and Mabel? The Tattslotto machine? The Crown Jewels - not on the Iist, but surely a big points earner. They split up knowing their tasks - knowing that they must succeed.

It is IO pm : seven hours after 3 pm. Midnight is two hours away. The night is cool, clear and quiet. Too quiet.

Four desperate men board a Royal Parade tram. The conductor stares. The many passengers stare. Perhaps the four desperate men look suspicious because they all pay the exact fare. Perhaps it is because their faces betray their desperation. Or perhaps it is becase they are not wearing trousers.

"What are you guys doing?" asks an innocent girl sitting opposite them.

"That will be revealed in a moment," they reply . One moment later that was revealed. So was everything else.

The camera flashes. The girl orders a copy . The four desperate men . disembark.

It is later, the same night. It is still very dark. Three Trinity men, wearing full face balaclavas and dark glasses are apprehended, driving a car without lights the wrong way up a one-way street. A back seat full of spanners, a boot full of "Russell Street" signs. They attempt to convince the boys in blue that they are doing 'nothing'. They fail. Perhaps they will be more convincing when their case comes up.

Still later: A crack team ventures to ballarat and back, removing the lightning rod from the Creswick School of Forestry during P thunderstorm. Immortalized on film are a City Square fountain skinnydipper, and two "Nuns out of Habit" on the steps of St Paul's. Telephone calls are made. VFL ruckmen are invited to come; Molly Meldrum is invited not to come. A worried college militarist rushes into Scavenge HO: I can't get a cannon, but will two police motorbikes do?"

It is 7 am: The day of judgement dawns. Scavenge HO is laden with items of scavenge - a guide dog here, four black sex dolls ther, and garden gnomes everywhere.

The scene is set for a big score - but a coup de grace is needed!

Three hours later it is IO am: It is overcast. A cool breese blows from the south; perfect _weather for a kidnapping.

12 noon: The Jo Pearson attempt has failed. Lou Richards has escaped to a shopping centre opening.

The judging is at I pm. The desperate men become more desperate . At 12.55 the tension is broken. Two men in overalls and stocking masks lead a bewiidered Chris Randall into the college dining hall. His gag is removed, whereupon he cries: "If you paid full price, you didn't get it at my Book City!" The gag is hastily reapplied.

A Note from the PM* In the efforts of the se fine young men and women of Trinity there lies a lesson for us all. What drives them to beg, borrow and pilfer, to strip, dare and kidnap prominent busine ssmen? Self-indulgence? Never!

Rather, it is an all too rare form of selflessness, aimed only at driving the Trinity Scavenger Hunt team to the top, thus bringing fame and honour to the Warden, the Dean, The Council , The Oak Tree - and yes, dear reader, to you and ME. Some things inspire me about Trinity College - and none more than the altruisic efforts of these fine young people to plant the seeds of noble deed in generations of Trinner-pies to come.

TUESDAY AT TRINITY For me Tuesday at Trinity represents an insistence on open ended inquiry and debate, on grasping and tackling issues, concerns and problems which we owe it to ourselves to consider. To me the impressive variety to be found in the selection of speakers and topics is a statement of the spirit of inquiry which distinguishes the whole endeavour. In giving a brief account of Tuesday at Trinity this year I would like to lay emphasis on the very real benefits derived from the project. both on a general level and with reference to our college .

In any compact community there is always a concern , usually felt by those beyond the confines of its traditions, that perhaps a full awareness of the "real" world, and of "real" people , is somewhat lacking.

Whether this is true of Trinity .is not for me to comment on here, but Tuesday at Trinity exemplifies a very real concern to undermine any such comments, and bring some sort of appreciation of human problems to the attention of those of us, such as the writer, who are prone to let academia dominate our thoughts.

Tuesday at Trinity seeks to add yet another dimension to the intellectual and cultural life of the college. It encapsulates the finest aspect of the academic tradition, not so much by virtue of the material presented for discussion during the year as by the spirit behind the entire venture: the spirit of Inquiry.

THE WINE CELLAR REPORT This year the wine cellar staggered from overdrafts to financial crises in a fashion not unlike that of some past wine cellar presidents after black tie dinners.

Financially, this year has been like most others . Our credit system is such that we are only paid at the end of each term, therefore leading to a rundown in wine cel lar stocks as well as money in hand. Hopefully, the new credit system will overcome this problem and provide a greater turnover and a consequent increase in stock size and variety.

The year started well with an Orientation Week wine tasting. This is the traditional time for the introduction of freshers to the twin functions of the wine cellar; firstly as an opportunity to experience and develop a greater understanding of wine, and secbndly as a good excuse to indulge at any hour.

Unfortunately, due to my poor organisation and a general lack of interest in the College, this year's wine tour did not eventuate . Hopefully this break in tradition will not be extended by next year's committee. The cocktail party is to be held in third term and it is expected that it will be the swan-song, not only of this year's committee, but also of several well known College personalities.

Otherwise, the successful running of the wine cellar has l'een _ due _to the work of committee. Stephen Cottrell has sacrificed much time and effort as stock controller and has taken a keen interest in all aspects of the wine cellar. The able support of Robert Joyce, Richard Allen, David Larsen and Jennifer Inglis has made my job an easy one to perform .

"LIFEAT THE BAR ... " (titlecourtesy of RobertDean) Naughton's Hotel, established 1873, is still standing one hundred and ten years later after two world wars and three hundred and thirty university terms which include three thousand three hundred Friday nights (assuming ten weeks in a term)". It is the University and the Colleges on Royal Parade from which this public house draws most of its income .

Why the attraction to this place? Are people drawn towards the public bar by the beer? It is the same beer that fills the tap in any other pub in the area. Maybe the attraction lies in the smug air of satisfaction that the inexperienced freshers can gain from parking the proverbial tiger on the multicoloured carpet (which appears to be designed so that sailings of such an eruptive origin will not show up).

Maybe the attraction lies in the food which is readily available for purchase from the hotel's genial and helpful staff: CC's,SamboyCnips(Plain,BBQ, Salt& Vinegar,

Cnicken), Twisties, Cneez els, Nobby's Nuts, EtaDryRoast ed Nuts, and .those 'delicious little roast meals with plen ty of vegies' that can be bought for under a dollar? Whil st the above menu makes up for the nutrients that our intercollegiate cook-chill system lacks, I feel that it is n6t the food that is the attraction . Let us keep searching for the answer. We may be looking too much at things material.

Wha¡t ¡about looking at things physical?

Since romance to the collegiate fresher amounts to the frantic osculatory contact often seen at College functions, maybe Naughton 's has a certain aphrodisiacal atmosphere which is attractive to many of its patrons? Having worked in the lounge bar of the

34

establishment and tripped 'innocently ' over peop le with severe cases of this romantic lock-jaw, I somehow think that even if you could take t ime out to ask your partner's name, you probably would not recognise him/ her the next time in daylig ht.

There are a number of our colleagues here at Trinity attracted to t he little, horizontal television sets wh ich provide hours of electronic entertai nment for one or two. Whether playing 'Jungle King' or¡ Pengo' one's wits are set against somet hing which doesn't argue or provide any intellec tual stimulat ion whatsoever - just "what the doctor ordered" after a hard week of so~ialising interspersed with the occasional lecture! If you are very good these machines will give you a bonus game for each million points scored and the chance to write your name on t he screen alongside demigods such as BUZ or AM. Naughton' s is a popular estab lishment for pre-ball drink s, talking football with Frank, competing in Chuga-lug time tria ls (incidentially, the Chug-a-lug boat races were introduced by Naughton's about six years ago after an undergradua te committee detected a lack of such an event in the cultural environment of the area), having a few quiet ales before bed, celebrating a sporting win or loss, or for just 'getting blind ' as the old adage goes.

So far, I cannot really say t hat I have discovered reasons for the establishment 's popularity . Maybe I should just accept the fact that the place is popular and leave you with the words of the bleary-eyed undergrad, who replied when asked why he had been to the pub, "Because it's ther e!"

MEN'S SWIMMING

CRICKET The cricket season began on a successful note when International House failed to turn up for the first match.

In the semi-final Trinity's batting was resussitated from 3 for 5 to 8 for 150 by a majestic 64 n.o. from Simon H¡olloway 's willow, ably supported with a fluent 23 from Russell Kneebone . Then Queens suffered a vicious Trinity bowling attack, brilliantly supported by fieldsmanship of quality, which ripped through the batting team 's top order . The aggressive bowling, spear-headed by Phillips and McFarlane, routed Queens for a mere 71 runs.

Amid controversy Trinity took to the crease in the Grand Final against Newman . It was on a very damp wicket, not conducive to the stroke play displayed by Trinity all season. Again there was early trouble (8 for 48); again the position was rallied (to 79 all out), this time a plucky 25 from David Hallowes .

Last season Newman had been rolled for 70 all out.

This year they look shaky at 6 for 50, but their number three saved them again, for the third time this season.

So Newman won but not before Andrew McFarlane had nearly decapitated a few of their batsmen (and nearly keeper Crummett).

The team performed well in both games and was slightly unlucky not to take out the flag. However our batsmen never really supported our strong bowling Ii ne up. I thank Frank for preparing the final wicket and also the players for their enthusiasm both at training and during the games.

Peter Holloway 36

Having been appoint ed as captain of swimming more in a process of elimination than for any other reason, I set about the task of discovering the talent in Trinity .

With just two of last year's team returning, our hopes were obviously going to have to rest upon the Freshers who had boasted their swimming prowess in a bid to gain entrance to these halls. After a poor turn-out at the first meeting, encouragement was needed and the early morning door-knocks did mean that a majority of those interested did present themselves for the training sessions and the team trials.

Notwithstanding this belated entnusiasm, their were only half a dozen swimmers with fast enough times for the team . This meant that each would have to swim in more than one event, for this Bruce Garratt deserves a special mention . He qualified for two of his three individual events, and would have made the hat-trick had it not been for a rather over-zealous official, who disqualified him.

The finals saw us finish a disappointing sixth , followed by a party in which the men drowned their sorrows while the women celebrated their victory. Thanks to all those who tried out for the team and the best of I uck for 1984.

WOMEN'S SWIMMING After the heats in which Trinity and Ormond seemed to be very evenly matched, the finals gave expectations of being extremely exciting. Pip Smith's great victory at the start of the evening went on a long way to boost our morale and from there, with the valuable contributions of Kate and Min Brodie, we managed to win the title .

With our enthusiastic supporters, some wet, some dry, it certainly turned out to be a lively evening.

FIRST ¡vm MEN'S ROWING

In one of the most daring attempts since Peter Howe announced his heterosexuality, the Trinity Rowing eight embarked on an intense period of preparation lasting four weeks and involving no training until the day of the race. This, of course, meant that there was no chance of 'peaking' too soon, but also meant that if we did not cross the finishing line first then we did not stop rowing.

Despite the efforts of saboteurs , all eight oarsmen and cox arrived at the boatsheds alive, ready to face the Queen's College crew. With one illegal training session under their belt the Queen's lads, obviously reaching their 'peak' too soon and ran out of steam at the I 000 m mark. This allowed the Trinity team to the final knowing that we could only improve on the extremely bad row against Queen's . A highly trained, confident, yet 8/ 9 Catholic Newman College crew emerged as the challenger .

Now was the time for Trinity to remember the long gruelling minutes we had spent together on the water, all those early mornings we didn't have, and the lack of sleep that we did not suffer from . It all was to be over in six minutes of back-breaking physical endurance. We knew Newman had rowed Ormond down in the heat so, once we were in front all we were going to do was to get further in front; the optimal formula for winning .

FIRST VIII WOMEN'S ROWING For three weeks before the finals, the Women's First Crew trained at a consistently hard pace; including some work on the river over Easter. On the day, the semi-final against Queens was a nerve-racking experience, heightened by the opposition's boat falling apart Queens were seen as the greatest threat, however, it was a victory to Trinity and a place in the final with Ormond . This final t ussle proved to be a closer fought affair than expected . Yet the strength and fitness of Trinity dispatched the Ormond eight by one and a half lengths .

Congratulations and thanks to the coaches, Martin 'Why did they invent rowing" Scott and Richard Hall, and to the crew: Ali Moore, Tonia Douglas, Soo Peden, Lisa Stewart, Jenny Inglis, Fi Purnell, Sue King, Lucy Carruthers and Di Gillett .

SECOND VIII WOMEN'S ROWING

It seems fated for the women 's second' s crew to live up to their name and cont inually cross th e line in th e final in second pla ce to th e great er skill (or is it weight?) of the Kendall Hall crew. Despite a clear win in the heat and a valiant effort in the final. first place was not to be .

Next year. girl s - tote a few bale s in the holidays!

Coaches David Wainewright and Helen Purnell did a magnificent job of trying to instill the finer arts of rowing into the crew they lovingly named "the drunken octopus". It was a pity the crew could not give them the first place t heir enthusiastic coaching deserved.

The crew consisted of Marcelle Adamson. Lynette Julian, Edwina Kinnear, Sarah Learmonth, Sally Webb.

Sarah Kennedy, Sue Royle, Kate Smallwood and Julie Burn. They show great potential for the women's I st's next year. Special mention must be made of Jule Burn's tights to accommodate a tight fit in bow seat, and Sue "Auntie " Royle ferrying the crew to and fro in the Auntie mobile.

Best of luck next year!

Kate Smallw ood

It was early in Orientation Week this year when the seconds crew began training for the Malcolm Russell Norton Trophy, to be contested over 1600metres. Geoff Hamilton and Richard Tallis were tremendous in their efforts to coach us. often arriving at the river before us.

Although we lost the heat against Queens. we rowed hard to take out the intermediate final over Newman .

Only then we realised that we had the ability to win. but 1983 was not to be ours.

Thanks to all those who tried out , and to those who rowed, and therefore. had to survive the inevitable dawn hangovers and the spectacular car chases. Best of luck for 1984.

WOMEN'S ATHLETICS

The athletics season once again proved to be a successful one for Trinity . Fourteen women made up the team , a half of that number being as yet undiscovered, however, proving themselves champions on the day. At the start of the finals' afternoon Trinity was up by fifty points on their rivals, a lead which was never lost. A high level of consistency throughout the team was the key to success with everyone gaining high placings in their events .

Particular mention should be made of Mary Hayward's first place in the discus and of Lucy Carruthers for her winning the 400 m (as well being runner-up in both the 100 m and 800 m).

This strength in Trinity sprinting was in evidence again when Lou Eccleston, Lisa Dowd, Rebecca Pitt, and Lucy came second in the 4 x I 00 m relay. It seemed that there was no danger of losing the shield except when the adjudicators announced the Newman mens team as winners of the womens competition. However , an embarassed shuffle of judicial papers put the trophy in our hands.

Many thanl<sto all those who competed and tried out for the team, and the best of luck for 1984.

paying forty cents to drive ourseives through :WOand 400 metre interval training sessions. These sessions paid off in the heats which took place on Sunday, April 17th . Our track athletes qualified in all but three events, and all augured well for the finals ten days later .

Despite the obvious physical dangers of competing on the University Track, which has a surface considerably worse than the average outback dirt track, our athletes lifted well for the finals on Wednesday, April 27th. our sprinters - Jeremy Twigg, Andrew Rouse, Jonathon Coultas and Andrew Maughan demonstrated sheer determination in winning the 4 x I 00; doubtess the highlight of Trinity's day. Each also performed well in their respective individual events giving us places in each of the I 00, 200 and long jump . In addition, Tim Morris and Andrew McFarlane ran very well to place second and third in t he I IO metres hurdles. We did not fare quite so well in the longer events, coming in the middle of the field in each of the 400, 800, 1500and 3000. However, credit must go to the 4 x 800 team of Richard Allen, John Sevior, Charles Gillies and David Jones. They came a respectable third behind Queen's and Newman, both of which had abundant natural talent.

In the field events our athletes failed to place, with the notable exception of Graeme Phillips who won the javelin by an enormous margin, and Duncan McFarlane who came third in the same event Richard Hall and Chris Miller performed well in the shot put and discus but missed out on places by narrow margins.

We were unfortunate this year in that we lost many athletes and failed to fill the gaps, while Newman's recruiting plugged their gaps admirably. All things considered, wed id extremely well to come second and can only hope that some top athletes can be attracted to the green, red and white for next year!

One of the tensest finats in years began with a serve from John Negri. He exuded confid ence, even an air of style, and the crowd rose to this with app reciatory gasps. However, this was short lived. It was uncanny; Richard Crummett and Lisa Stewart rallied their effort just when Negri's reflexes began to malfunction . "Swing now" , shouted John's panel of coaches as the green ball appro ached him. It was useless, the arm could not respond . With a cloudy head and bloodshot eyes, Sue King tried desperate ly to regain their early advantage, but what could she do with a man eligibl e for an Invalid 's Pension? Anyway, Stewie was too far gone to serve a double fault In a short while t he Crummett/Stewart combination had won the day, and the crowd had di spersed . As the sun set. the four combatant s sat on the court trying to work out the meaning of it all.

HARRAWAY TENNIS It is with great honour and sincere reverence that I furnish my report on Harraway 1983 - that tournament of champions. Although present for most of the afternoon I was unable to take in much of what went on, therefore, I apolo~ise, in advance, for any inaccuracies.

It was a cold and windy Sunday afternoon when twenty-three brave couples prepared for the first round . Within an hour only half of them were standing, many having succumbed quickly, unable to gain any advantage from the "optional " refreshments kindly supplied by the organisers. By then the lame had made way for the sixteen desparadoes who had forced their way into the quarter-finals . There had been , no convincing pair in the rounds to date and, therefore, no clear favourite . It was anybody's tournament when the couples in the semi-final emerged, battle-weary and stupid . They had all tasted (or is that 'skulled '?) success and found that they did not like it at all. Realising that the prize was now close at hand, they made determined efforts not to get any closer. Those who were not up to it then accepted the congratulatof)I drinks of the referees and proceded to the final.

WOMEN'S TENNIS ·a

It proved to be difficult task to select the Trinity Women 's Tennis team this year. Sixteen players tried out for the team , many of them being enthusiastic freshers. However, a squad of seven was finally chosen; Kate Armstrong , Susie McFarlane, Sue Murray, Jenny Allen, Cecily Ward, Jeanine Frooines. and myself.

Our first match resulted in an easy victory over St. Hilda's. The semi-final. however, was a much closer battle, and Trinity was neck-and-neck with JCHfor much of the afternoon. In the end the 5-3 score-line putTrinity in the final. Here Queens College were the favourites , but as the day wore ·on their confidence fell as ours rose.

It was left to the final doubles game to decide the winners, a game played under lights, yet still a game of very high quality which eventually went in favour of Susie and Sue. Thanks to the team for a great victory, and to all those who supported us.

FIRST xvm FOOTBALL

The 1983 season commenced enthusiastically with a large number of players taking part in the footb _all camp . Training, in the regular sense, along w1~h basketball and handball matches provide~ daily activities, while films gave light-hearted entertainment (as well as foggy windows) at night. .

Our first practice match saw us go down a bigger and more experienced Old Boys side. The disappointment of this game wa~ soon overc~me by the ·win at Mt Derrimut; we combined we_llagainst the Ag. Scientists on their hilly ground wh1~~ was also covered in cow pats. Trinity looked promising .

After weeks of gut-busting training und~r F.X. Henagan the team was looking very fit. Tha~ w1~h~he second term arrival of an " old" veteran Mike Bnan Doug~· Armstrong the team was starting to shape up quite well.

t?

Our first game against Ormond saw an inspirational Trinity team bounce to a three goal lead in the first quarter, o"rmond being kept to just one point The game was tough one will all the Trinity players fighting hard for the ball. Bill Kelso battled all day taking some impossible grabs, while Andrew Watson showed some flashes of brilliance in the centre, Peter Holloway and John Seviorwere dangerous in front of goals kicking four a-piece . Frank's moving of Phillips to C.H.B. and of Crummett to full-back, saw both these players come into the game. However, it was Ormond's overall strength that saw them as eventual winners.

Scores: Trinity I 0.7.67, Ormond 19.9.123.

Goals: Holloway 4, Sevior 4, Maughan 2.

Best: Kelso, Holloway, Maughan, Sevior. Crummett , Watson.

Our first set-back in the game against Queen 's was the withdraw! of Chris Miller from the side because of a recurring hamstring injury aggravated during the warmup. Nick Holder was, therefore , left with a greater task but coped admirably ruckingwell around the ground all day. Twigg. Crummett and Hayward were solid in defence as was Rouge Armstrong, playing with an ankle injury, Kelso maintained his fine form at CH~. however, on the heavy ground the Trinity team seemed to lack the desparation of the opposition . Queen's deserved to beat a disappointing Trinity on the day.

Scores: Trinity 3.11.29,Queen's 9.17.7I. Goals: Holloway, Wilkins, Sevior.

Best: Holder, Crummett, Twigg. Watson, Kelso, Hayward.

With no chance of making the final Trinity took on Newman on a wet and windy Crawford Oval in the last game. Julian Mitchell was concussed early in the game and had to be taken off. His kamikaze effort was later questioned as being a plot so that he·could start predinner drinks early for the Ball! Paul Jeffrey, in his first senie5rgame, played strongly in defence with Twigg and Crummett (Best on Ground) . Watson and Holder both played well as did a much improved Simon Holloway.

With two goals on the day, Peter Holloway took the Trinity goal-kicking crown with 7 goals. His last effort elluded three players and the goal-post to sneak in for a major, thus winning for him the Canberra Television award for the "Arse of the Year". Although beaten the Trinity players earned them selves a reason to celebrate at the Ball that night Scores: Trinity 4.3.27, Newman 10.7.67.

Goals: Holloway 2, Sevior, Watson.

Best: Watson, Holder.

Overall the season was an enjoyable one despite the lack of success. Congratulations to Richard Grummett , the worthy winner of the best and fairest award. Thanks to all the players for their efforts throughout the season, with special thanks to Frank, whose undivided dedication to Trinity Football has been an inspiration and example for all of us.

I 983 looked to be a very promi sing year for Trini ty Coll ege Rugby wit h a squad consist ing of many regular club pl ayers from wh ich to choose. The first match was against a hasti ly arranged Old Boys tea m and was won 12 - 8 by t he Trini ty tea m. Best "o n ground " we nt to Jeremy Twigg for his d ete rmin ed pl ay in the mu d . Other good performances were seen in the afte r-match drin ks on t he balcony . The first inte rcoll egiate game was 36 - 0 against a Ridl ey/ St Hilda 's compo site team who never looked like being anythin g more th an Australian Rules Footballe rs on a diff erent sized field .

The Trinity team then travelled down to Geelong Grammar for a practice match, minu s most of the players in the back-line . Despite som e good t ight play from the forwards , the improvised back-line had little experience of the game 's finer necessitie s such as tackling . The scoreline (five trie s to nil) was as forgettabl e as the eskies were full. Many thanks must go to Geelong Grammar which continue s to show great hospitality to Trinity teams.

After winnin gt he first round game against th e Ridley/ St Hilda' s composite team, Trinity met Newman in th e first semi -final. Despite strong p erforman ce from Grant Mason, John Stretch and Peter Wiseman, t he team lost 3 - 0 in a very close match . It was a di sappoin ting result in light of the tal ent and dep t h in the te am but adequately highligh ts the need for less talk and mor e act ion both at training and in games.

1HE ALL-STARS

The All-Stars approached this year's season with high expectation , encouraged by the successful blend of the experience of players like Will Baylis and John.

Carruthers with the youthful determination of the freshers . Our hopes were only realised when the AllStars, a team sprinkled with potential I st XVIII players, won their first game against St. Mary's. After two wellfought games against St Hilda's and Ormond, however , in which we were defeated, but by no means disgraced , the All-Stars were depleted for the last two games through injuries and other distractions (prac.s!).

We lost by ten goals to ).C.H. (they only scored ten!) in appalling conditions . At three quarter time in our last game , against University College, we had not posted a major on the board and it looked as though we would finish the season ignominiously had it not been -for the efforts of Tim Roberts and David Beischer in the last quarter and the inspired leadership of Captain Chds Peny.

MEN'S HOCKEY

Despite a concerted effort by players in pre-season training, 1983will not be recorded in the College annals as a match-winning year. The team was di splaced in the first round of the competition by St. Hilda's in a 2 - 0 defeat suffered in spite of our tenacious, yet beleaguered defence. The squad showed , throughout .-..._ a high degree of enthusiasm and professional ism which included a Hockey camp in the final week of the May Vacation. We were not as resourceful as the footballers with their "motivational film " night during their camp. I hope this valuable experiment continues in years to come.

The season ended on a happy note with a very high standard social match against the wily Old Boys' team, captained by David Barnes. An honourable 4 - 4 draw was the result.

Tim Sligo showed skill and coolness in a pressured Standing: L. Carruth ers. L. Stewart.S. Webb, P. Smith. defence throughout the season and well deserved the Seated: F PurneU. S. Turnbu{{ , K. SmaUwood,C Ward. J. title of the "best and fairest" p layer of 1983.

It was quickly realised by this year's hockey team that not only did the 7 am practices require tremendous dedication. but also lent themselves to convenient viewing of trans-Bulpadok and even trans-Crescent crossings. To alleviate further embarassment the time was swiftly changed to 7.30 am twice a week. The practices were marked by great enthusiasm and ability which made squad selection difficult. After two practice matches with PLC and Queens we easily defeated Whitley IO - 0. An unfortunate draw left us to face Ormond next who had many girls playing in regular Agrade competitions. Not to be discouraged, however, we took the field and with a show of determination proceed to worry them with a I - 0 lead at half-time .

Although Trinity never gave up , Ormond managed to score two goals in the second half.

Many thanks to all the girls who tried out and to the team itself for a spirited (if short) season. Good luck in 1984.

MEN'S TABLE-TENNIS

Socce r

I hate to break tradition , but it has turned out to be quite a good year for table- tennis. For possibly the first time the'team succeeded in arriving to within one step of the finals; maybe next time we will win. The four man team starts with Tony Troiani at No. I, describing his visions of defeat between smashes and silly questions like, "why aren't I hitting it right?" Ben Daly preferred to smoke with the Ormond boys than play against them, while Ralph Ward-Ambler adopted his own brand of Bogart coolness in the physchological war-fare of the matches. Lastly me, (can't say any more) .

Thanks to the loyal supporters for their ball retrieving and glazed stares of boredom; and good luck for next year.

SOCCER

With nine of last year's victorious team having left College. the 1983 attempt for the soccer title was obviously going to be more of a challenge. It was, however, a challenge met with fanaticism by Trinity, especially on the part of footballers like Richard Allen and John Sevior. Added to this the Fresher talent. notably Paul Jeffrey and Darren Holder which holds great promise for the future .

After nearly seven weeks of hard (7 am) training came our first match. Trinity outplayed the University College eleven. (well, actually it was ten when one had to leave for a lecture). and were unlucky not to score more than three goals; but one was a spectacular effort by Tim Morris.

The semi-final against Newman was a tighter tussle during wnich our defence. marshalled by Steven Grant, played extremely well. A I - 0 victory to them was, alas, a fair result on the day, largely because of their dominance in the air and their greater experience .

Thanks for all the support that the team received. helping to make a lot of effort worthwhile .

WOMEN'S TABLE-TENNIS The Women's Table-Tennis team had a glorious beginning to the season¡, showing their true style and skill with a victory over Ormond in the qualifying round .

Lou Bayley proved to be a formidable opponent and the aggression and determination of the other players, Susie McFarlane, Sarah Learmonth and Pip Smith, certainly held us in good stead. However, in the first round we were not so fortunate, conceeding defeat to the less charming but more professional team at Queens.

Despite this slight drawback the team played well and, with Susie's comic side-show, made our rather short stay in the competition an enjoyable one.

WOMEN'S GOLF Women's intercollegiate golf was played at Rosanna on the first of August Annabel Plummer, Jenny Allen, Di Gillett and a reluctant caddy rose atthe crack of dawn in eager anticipation for the day's competition.

Annabel and Jenny played like budding Jan Stephensons. I, however, did not perform as well and my caddy deserted me after nine holes. Despite this set-back, our top two scores enabled us to gain a welldeserved second place.

T'was a dark and gloomy mom. A hint of fog pervaded the College cloisters as the golf team, together with the indomitable Tim Sligo as team manager, scampered out of bed, thrilled at the prospect of clashing niblicks with other members of the College Crescent We savoured the delights of a cook-chill breakfast before motoring down the Eastern freeway to Rosanna golf course: - an oasis of fairway, tee and green: the mecca of North-Eastern Melbourne.

The course had a decidedly ghoulish appearance as we arrived, the fog having settled in the dales as the sun arose to mark the beginning of another inter-collegiate golf day.

To use a 'Lucas-ism ', we gave our balls a few 'perfunctory nudges' about the practice putting green before heading for the first tee and into battle .

The course was very wet and the consequential errors in judgement led to the venting of frustration albeit quietly! Many words were muttered, hardly befitting the gentlemen's game of golf, as drives found the rough approach shots fall short and putts slid tantalizing ly past the holes. ¡ There is nothing more pleasurable in the game than hitting a drive, perfec tly timed , travelling arrow-like (with a hint of draw) towards its ultimate destination.

Likewise the approach shot. hit with a touch of fade, settling at the base of the pin and the resulting putt sunk with authority, will send a golfer of any form into convulsions of delight The Trinity players found such exp~riences few and far between and,. save for David Lowe whose 87 was highly commendable given the conditions , our scores were servicable without being startling . The first qualify ing round was decided by Paul Jeffrey, our number six-player, who shot IOI . We made the final by two shots and qualified to play Queens : the final being decided by five pairs playing match play.

The Trinity unit, adapting well to the drier conditions in the afternoon, produced some inspired golf which saw us give Queens, a formidable team itself , a regular hiding . The end result- 5 to O- was not only a reflection of the superb play on the course, but a measure of the team management and organisation off the course, engineered by Tim 'Ty-nee Tips' Sligo. He not only marshalled the troops with business lik e efficiency at the first tee , but caddied for two rounds selecting clubs with unerring judgement Great cred it must be given to the six players who recorded Trinity's second victory in male sport during what has been a comparatively lean year.

MEN'S BASKE1BALL The basketball season began amidst some controversy, as players reacted strongly to the captain's choice of colours for the basketball singlets . Comments ranging from the possibility of playing in rugby jumpers to the more ridiculous suggestion that players and umpires be supplied with sunglasses in self-defence, had to be endured . It was obvious that I had been lumbered with some exceptionally witty minds.

Nevertheless, the first match against Uni. College resulted in a large victory. The opposition, initially bedazzled, proved to be undermanned and the score of 49 - 16was pleasing . Nick Holder demonstrated his dominance inside the key and the general play was skilful, though perhaps a bit confused.

After several postponements, we finally dragged JCH onto the court, who proceded to beat us by a point The match was marred by inclement weather (it was raining more heavily in the Beaurepaire Centre than outside) and by an 8'6" tall JCH player who· tended to dominate.

Following an easy win over St Mary's, we played Whitley in the final game of the elimination rounds.

Whitley led by ten points at the change, but a spirited second half saw that lead reduced to just two points.

David Jones, Ross Stephens and John Thorn (who sacrificed a chem. prac.) were all in good form. This loss saw us eliminated from the competition. A special thanks to John Forsyth, who was not only a great baseline player, but also a tremendous help at training to myself, a captain with limited experience .

WOMEN'S BASKE1BALL The 1983 Basketball season began with many new female basketball players in college. This year the competition was changed from a knock-out to a roundrobin one. Morning practices made an early start to the day for some but for others, they were unknown!

Matches soon got under way and we were all ready to challange Medley Hall, when they forfeited. Our next match was against Kendall Hall which was an extremely close encounter resulting in a draw. So it was on to play University College, whose team, unfortunately, proved to be the better one. The skills of Julie Thomas, Mary Hayward, Kelly White and Karen Forsyth were very impressive and contributed to ultimate victory in our final match against Ormond College .

The outstanding improvement , in such a short season, of Kate Smallwood and Fiona Story is worthy of note. Pip Smith and Sally Webb proved to be useful players as well. Thanks must go to Duncan McFarlane and Ross Stevens for their coaching and to Kelly White and David Jones for their valuable umpiring. Special thanks to Kate Smallwood for her enthusiasm both at practice and at matches. I hope the exceptionally high standard shown by this year's team will be maintained in the future .

MENS VOLLEYBALL The 1983 college volleyball season was a short and sharp one for Trinity. I think it would be fair to assume that the pJospects for the team were always dim, with one recognised player -Andrew Kindred (a veritable Peter Daicos of the volleyball court) and a captain who does not know the difference between a spike and a dig.

Yet in our only match of the season it was with vigour and enthusiasm that the team pushed ( 14-16 in the final set) a well-drilled and technically superior I.H. side. My thanks to the players for their efforts and to Andrew and Rob Sitch for coaching the team.

NETBALL

The Trinity firsts netball team selected from a group of twenty-five enthusiastic girls. trained consistenly as united team for several weeks in preparation to stun the other competing teams at our high standard of netball. Despite this encouraging approach, we were beaten by both Ormond and Unviersity College (last year's premiers). Having won four of the six rounds we only narrowly missed (by one point) making the finals . I believe that this enthusiasm will prevail for a successful season in 1984.

In 1983 womens volleyball was enjoyed by a team of dedicated recruits . Although we were inexperienced, training sessions were fun for us and others who joined in the lunchtime practices .

The result of the first round surprised a tentative Trinity team. Ridley found they couldn't return one serve in the opening game. The second set was ours at 15 - I , securing the match for Trinity . The quarter finals were not as successful. Janet Clark Hall had more experience and strategy than we did, beating .us 17 15, 15- 12.

The enthusiasm present and experience gained in 1983 should combine to make the 1984 season the success for which we hope.

MEN'S SQUASH Although Trinity College is renowned both here and abroad for its fostering of many squash stars, this year not a particularly good ¡Oscar' winning year. There was a distinct failure to capitalise on the five match points ripe for the taking in the first (and last) series of rubbers.

However, the sequel to last year's immense success, "Piranha II" is available on video, with complementary soundtrack and stars: Hamish Murphy, David Beischer, David Hallowes, Steve Eddie, Jon Coultas and Jeremey Bell.

We set out, this year, determined to repeat our 1982 badminton victory. This was no easy task without last year's number one and number two singles players. We had met Inte rnational House in the final each of the previou s three years and, apparently, our arch-rivals were very strong once again.

We lined up with Yuhan Lim play ing number one, John Forsyth number two , Nick Brasington number three and Simon Walkernumber four. Following a 'by' in the first round, courtesy of last year's win. we . then played Queen's and recorded a comfortable and morale -boosting 3 - 0 win. The next match was the sem i-final against Newman's impressive team. In what proved to be an extremely close and hard-fought struggle we went down 2 - 3, with the socre in one of the losing sets being one game all and 13 - 15 in the decider. There, but for two points went a position in the grand final. and another crack at International House.

My thanks to all players for their excellent effort in the matches and for an enjoyable season. Thanks also to the other members of the training squad, namely Andrew Maffett, Andrew Watson, Poh Sun Goh, Dow Long and Alistair Maclean.

WOMEN'S SQUASH Once again, this year. positions in the women's squash team were hotly contested. After numerous play-offs, the team was eventually picked as Annette (Beater) Mcilroy, Jenny (Bunsen) Allen, Sue (Chocky) Royal. Lisa (May) Stewart and yours truly, who was nearly the first non-playing captain of women's squash.

Firstly, we came up against Medley Hall at International House, where we triumphed taking the night 3 - 0. Next we defeated St. Hilda's 3 - 2 with some very close games and excellent play.

Unfortunately our winning streak was halted by the girls from ).C.H. Once again, however, the Trinity team played very well.

Thanks to all the team and to those hardy spectators who cheered us on and were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of our wonderfully white winter legs!

WOMEN'S BASEBALL When I asked our esteemed coach, Timothy Morris, for some help in writing the baseball report, he handed me an absurd looking table-affair , with all sorts of batting averages and runs and times at bat and bases gained and Winston Churchill's age at birth and his great-aunt's bust measurement and the like ...

Being as adept at reading figures as I am, I would just like to say that it was very encouraging to have so many talented players turn out to the practices and that although the team was a nervy lot it all turned out well in the end. For, in the words of the immortal Panda: "The Trinity College Baseball team had a great season this year . . . WE; WON!!"
