FRIENDS OF TRINITY PICNIC - JUTTODDIE Surprise re-enactment of a famous incident The name of Boyd Munro ('61) has been associated with a number of daring, but skilfully planned, exploits in aviation including a solo race across the Atlantic. His flair was developed in Trinity and goes back to a celebrated hijacking of the favourite, Ian Lowry ('62), from the Juttoddie Steeplechase in 1962. To the astonishment of competitors and spectators alike, a helicopter suddenly landed in the Bulpadock and whisked away the runner in whom most of the punters' money had been invested.

FROM THE EDITOR TRINITY COLLEGE NEWSLETTER NUMBER 47 - AUGUST 1993

Dear Reader There is always a good deal happening in Trinity. The undergraduate student life has a vigour of its own and I am happy to report that the general tenor of College life is both happy and productive. Both the Men's and Women's sports teams have been doing well. An idea of their keeness has been the readiness of many team members to rise at 6.30am for training even when it is cold and dark. The Firsts Football team repeated its success of last year by reaching the Grand Final but, despite a valiant effort, were no match for Newman's larger and more experienced team. The men have, however, won the premierships in Rowing, Swimming and Athletics. The Women are currently in second place in the Holmes Shield. To date the best results have been in Swimming, Athletics, Rowing, Squash, Table Tennis and Badminton and presently both the Hockey and Netball teams are vying for victory. The success of these teams may secure the shield.

There is also a good chance that we will retain the Cowan Cup. The 1993 play Prelude to a Kiss, maintained the high standard of recent years and was well attended by members and friends of Trinity. Eight of the ten performances were sold out. Much of the College is now involved with a production of the musical, Evita. The two stars are again Michael Smallwood and Miranda Barber and they are supported by a very talented cast and chorus as well as by a good orchestra of Trinity players directed by Music Tutor, Peter Tregear. Evita opens on Wednesday 25 August and runs until Saturday 4 September. Do not miss it! Enquiries telephone 349 0336. The Buildings and Grounds of the College continue to improve thanks to the enlightened interest and vigour of the Dean, Mary Chapman, and the excellent supporting staff of the College working in the Buildings House and Grounds. In Clarke, the bathrooms have been completely renovated and so has the TV room. We are now looking for one or more donors to help with restoring the Squash Court at a cost of $15,000. The interest of our many members in the ongoing life of the College is very deeply appreciated.

"I WAS GLAD" - A celebration of Coronation Music Over 1,000 people thronged St Paul's Cathedral Melbourne on the evening of Wednesday, 2 June 1993, for a musical celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. This feast of music was the inspiration of Trinity's Director of Music Dr Christopher Dearnley. The Trinity Chapel Choir and the Trinity Chamber Choir, enlarged by former Trinity choristers, were joined by the choirs of the Canterbury Fellowship and St Patrick's Cathedral. Before the Coronation music began, the combined choirs and large congregation stood to sing Advance Australia Fair in a version adapted from the original by the fourth Warden of Trinity, Dr Robin Sharwood. It is in many ways superior to the original, and we have pleasure in printing it on this page.

Heaven and Earth are full of the majesty of thy glory. The choral works were separated by the playing of two Coronation marches in arrangements for organ - Crown Imperial played by Trinity's Organ Scholar, David Ogilvie, and Orb and Sceptre played by Dr Christopher Dearnley. The congregation also had its part to play in the singing of the prayer Come, Holy Ghost and Ralph Vaughan Williams's much loved version of•the Old One Hundredth All People that on earth do dwell. The celebration closed like the original coronation did with God Save the Queen sung by all in a splendid arrangement by Gordon Jacob. Up to this point the Cathedral had listened in rapt quiet attention, but now everyone broke into vigourous and sustained applause for a memorable occasion.

After the singing of the Australian National Anthem the Reverend Howard Hollis began his vivid commentary which continued at intervals throughout the evening and greatly enhanced the congregation's appreciation of the music and its original setting. Forty years ago he was a Minor Canon of Westminster Abbey and was responsible for training the forty Queen's scholars for their traditional role of being the first to acclaim the new sovereign in the vivats incorporated into Sir Hubert Parry's anthem I was glad sung at the Queen's entry. On Coronation day he carried the sceptre in the regalia procession and later chanted the Litany in procession as the items of the regalia were carried to the Great West Door for the Queen's entry. The combination of commentary and splendid music, within the soaring architecture of the Cathedral, evoked the solemnity and sacramental character of the original ceremony so vividly that many felt almost as if they were transported across time and space to the great service in Westminster Abbey in 1953. A triumphant fanfare from Canzona Brass heralded the singing of Parry's great anthem I was glad. It was at once apparent that we were about to enjoy an occasion of unusual beauty and excitement.

A recording of this concert has been made by 3MBS - FM and is available on cassette with commentary or music only, through the College. To purchase a copy of this recording, please complete the order form on page 18.

A revised version of ADVANCE AUSTRALIA FAIR This version, adapted from the original words of P D McCormick, is by Dr Robin Lorimer Sharwood, fourth Warden of Trinity College. It may be reproduced without permission provided due acknowledgement is made and no alterations are made to the words. O God, who made this ancient land, And set it round with sea, Sustain us all who dwell herein, One people strong and free. Grant we may guard its generous gifts, Its beauty rich and rare. In your great name, may we proclaim, "Advance, Australia fair!" With thankful hearts then let us sing, "Advance, Australia fair!"

As well as the magnificent massed effect of combining all the choirs with organ and brass in the great anthems there were moments of quiet reflection in which each of the participating choirs sang on its own. Perhaps the most memorable was the singing of the opening line of the communion anthem O Taste and See, composed especially for the Coronation by Ralph Vaughan Williams, by Trinity's soprano soloist Jodi Clarke.

Your star-bright Cross aslant our skies Gives promise sure and true That we may know this land of ours A nation blessed by You. May all who come within its bounds Its peace and plenty share, And grant that we may prayerfully Advance Australia fair. With thankful hearts then let us sing, "Advance, Australia fair!".

A major work especially composed for the Coronation was A Festival Te Deum by Sir William Walton. For this, Dr Christopher Dearnley played the restored Lewis Organ of the Cathedral and the combined choirs were conducted by Trinity choral scholar, Julian Liberto. A dramatic effect was gained by placing the boys of St Patrick's Cathedral choir to one side where they provided the sound of angelic voices at the words Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Sabaoth

This is now the official version for use within St Paul's Cathedral Melbourne. 3


Chorister appointed as Acting Director of Trinity Chapel Choir The position of Director of Music in Trinity was nationally advertised in June following Dr Dearnley's departure for Perth. Fourteen applications of outstanding quality were received, and choosing among them has not been easy. The appointments committee includes representatives of the College, the Trinity College Foundation, the Faculty of Music, and the organist of Melbourne's two Cathedrals. An announcement is expected before the end of September. Mr Julian Liberto, an enthusiastic and able chorister who has also been the organising secretary for the Choir, has been appointed Acting Director of Music for the second semester 1993.

Lloyd Webber Musical for Trinity This year the Trinity College Music Theatre Society is staging Evita by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Evita is the story of the rise and fall of Eva Peron during her husband's reign in Argentina. The song "Don't Cry for me Argentina" soared on the charts when the original production was recorded and like all Lloyd Webber musicals, Evita's popularity has continued. Our production of this popular musical promises to be hugely successful with an energetic and talented cast of 36 singers and dancers. Our season of Evita runs from 25 August until 4 September with Gala night on 1 September. Tickets are available from the Union Theatre at the University. Don't miss it!

Julian's choral training began under Dr Ian Holtham at Melbourne Church of England Grammar School where he is still remembered as a boy soprano for his high C in Allegri's Miserere. He graduated as Bachelor of Arts in 1992 reading Music, Geography and Linguistics. He is currently completing a Bachelor of Letters in History. He has been a Choral Scholar with the Trinity Chapel Choir since 1990 and has studied Choral Direction with Professor Peter Godfrey, Mr John Rivers, and Dr Christopher Dearnley. He has directed the Trinity Choir on a number of occasions but perhaps his greatest achievement to date was conducting the combined choirs at the Coronation Concert in William Walton's elaborate Te Deum.

Trinity Members in Winning Moot Team The five members of the Jessup Moot Team from the University of Melbourne and their advisers once again produced magnificent performances in the annual Philip C Jessup International Law Moot Competition. They won the 1993 Australian competition held in Canberra in February, and the World Championship in Washington. The team included two Trinity members Richard Bootle ('90), and Susan Brennan ('88), as well as Alison Duxbury, Byron Ko and Tony Pitman. Richard and Susan, as well as achieving great academic and mooting success, were noted during their College years as stars in Trinity musicals.

Paul Bugeja, Miranda Barber and Michae Smallwood performed in the Trinity College Theatre Society's production of "Prelude to a Kiss" in May this year.

The College congratulates them.

CHANGE AND TRADITION - A portrait of the University of Melbourne Many Trinity members will take pleasure in Melbourne University's latest publication, a full-colour coffee table book entitled Change and Tradition, produced for the University's 140th birthday. The book is a delight to the eye and contains 45 well-written lively articles on various aspects of the University's life. The University expects the book to be in demand from its Alumni as well as a gift for graduating students. A section called "Lively Communities in the Colleges" pays appropriate tribute to Trinity's first Warden, Alexander Leeper, in establishing Melbourne's magnificent collegiate heritage. There are fine photographs of Ormond and Newman and Trinity is handsomely represented by one historic photograph ("A Waggish crowd of 1950's Trinity Collegians in the rig of the day - Fletcher Jones slacks and sportscoats") and three other fine photos taken in Trinity - one showing Bishops', one with a happy group of students in a Cowan bed-study, and one showing a happy couple, newly married, walking down the aisle of the Trinity Chapel The book is available from the Alumni office, the University of Melbourne, for $49.95 and is thoroughly recommended. 6


FRIENDS OF TRINITY PICNIC - JUTTODDIE

Surprise re-enactment of a famous incident (continued from page 1) A dramatic re-enactment occurred this year - thanks to the complicity of Mr Bill Wilson ('61) and Mr David Wells ('61). For safety reasons it was deemed prudent to involve the Warden and the TCAC Committee in confidence. A considerable feat of navigation was called for because of the large numbers attending a picnic lunch organised by the Friends of Trinity on the Bulpadock as well as the space taken up by the races. Juttoddie was run this year with men and women tied to each other in the manner of a three-legged race. When their heat started, Janet Teitzel and Ben Hasker had no notion of the distance they would travel before they reached the finishing line. Bill Wilson and his pilot suddenly landed and with the help of a few students in the know bundled the surprised pair off. Before being returned to College they were generously plied with champagne at some secret location.

Surprised and elated - Ben Hasker and Janet Tetzel return to Trinity after their mystery flight. Boyd Munro and Ian Lowry did not miss out on the fun. Boyd flew in from England just for the occasion and quite a number of those in College in 1962 somehow found their way to the Bulpadock in good time. The TCAC Committee made considerable efforts to return to a more traditional form of Juttoddie without the messiness which has been too prominent in recent years. The eventual winners were Rowena Fary and Simon Phillips.

And the race is on... with a little commentary from residents Miranda Barber, Darren Whitelaw and Adrian Farrer supervised by TCAC Committee members, Ralph Ashton and James Murray

MEMBER PROFILES Three recent Fellows At the end of last year Mr John Gourlay ('54) and Professor Kevin Westfold ('40) were installed as Fellows of the College by Archbishop Keith Rayner, President of the College Council.

Kevin Westfold was Senior Student at Trinity in 1943. He went on to a distinguished career in Mathematics and Physics, culminating as Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy and for a time Acting Vice-Chancellor at Monash University. Kevin is currently resident at Trinity College where he is a Tutor in Chemistry and Mathematics and is an Academic Shepherd for the Trinity Education Centre.

During Choral Evensong on Sunday 25 July, The Honourable Mr Robert Clive Tadgell ('56) was installed as a Fellow of Trinity College by the Right Reverend James Grant, the Senior Fellow of the College.

Robert Clive Tadgell graduated in Law and was an associate to Mr Justice Sholl of the Supreme Court of Victoria in 1958. He has been a judge of the Supreme Court of Victoria since 1980 and the Chancellor of the Diocese of Melbourne since 1981, when he

A Fellowship is the highest honour within the power of Trinity College to bestow. Fellows are elected for life by the College Council and their number must not at any time exceed twenty.

John Gourlay is the Chairman of Governors of the Trinity College Foundation of which he is a Benefactor. He is the former Chairman of McCaughan Dyson & Co (now ANZ McCaughan) Stockbrokers. His son Jono is currently resident at Trinity.

also became Deputy President of the Appellate Tribunal of the Anglican Church of Australia. In 1990 and 1991 he was the President of the Medico-Legal Society of Victoria. Since 1981 he has contributed to academic life as a member of the Council of Monash University. In his spare time, such as it is, he enjoys woodworking and gardening.

Trinity Education Centre enjoys great success The Trinity Education Centre (TEC) directed by Dr Denis White is enjoying success both academically and economically. The Centre was established in the College by the College Council in 1989 and enrolled its first students, all from South East Asia, in its Foundation Studies program in 1990. There was never any doubt about the academic merits of the program. It attracted students of exceptionally high quality and provided them with outstanding teachers and an imaginative curriculum. Two features of the curriculum are unusual and important - teaching English through drama and intellectual independence through a course in the Western intellectual tradition called History of Ideas. In addition, instruction is provided, according to students' needs, in Literature, English for academic purposes, Accounting, Geography, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics. The course lasts for a full academic year of 40 weeks.

in a wide of range of other Australian tertiary institutions. Establishing a new and imaginative venture like this involves considerable risks. As a safeguard against financial disaster a number of keen Trinity supporters acted as personal guarantors for sums of either $10,000 or $20,000. Because of the high standing of Trinity's Foundation Year Program in the University, and a record enrolment of 122 students in 1993, the College Council resolved in May that all guarantors were exonerated from their obligations forthwith. By the end of 1993 the venture will be virtually free of debt. Most of the TEC students are non-resident members of Trinity. There are, however, currently six in residence in the College. These students serve as an important link between the TEC students and the other residents. There have, of course, been growing pains. There is no doubt that Australia's future lies with Asia and the Pacific. Increasing numbers of our graduates are going to positions there. The College Council can take pride in understanding the way that the Australian community, the University, and the College must move in the years to come.

The University of Melbourne offers help and supervision of the course by providing Academic "Shepherds" - Senior members of the University staff who are available for advice regarding curriculum and assessment. Students who achieve the necessary high scores at the end of the year are offered places at the University of Melbourne or 7

FOUNDATION REPORT 1993 Frank Woods Endowment In May this year 106 guests attended a Dinner held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground for the launch of the Frank Woods Endowment in memory of a beloved Archbishop. The purposes of the Endowment are:

Three Archbishops attended this special Dinner Archbishop Dr Keith Rayner, Archbishop Peter Hollingworth and Archbishop Sir Frank Little who spoke of his friendship with Frank Woods:

1. To establish a Frank Woods Visiting Fellowship whereby a Christian scholar of distinction may from time to time

My own most precious experience of communion at a personal level was with my soul friend, the late Archbishop Frank Woods, when heart spoke to heart. So often there returns to my mind his cry of hope, tinged with some despair, when on one occasion he cried out from the depths of his heart: 'It could happen that I die before we can celebrate the Eucharist together.' Such an experience of communion is a treasured memory indeed.

- make available to the wider community in Church and society some of the fruits of contemporary Christian thought, especially as that thought makes an impact on important social and cultural factors in present day Australia

With my encouragement, Frank once wrote to the Holy Father some critical but constructive comments on a theological issue. It was one of the joys of my life to be able to introduce the Holy Father to Frank with the words: 'Here is the Abraham of ecumenism in Melbourne.' He was always to me a Father in faith, one whom I always left further enriched in my own faith.

- contribute to the life and thought of the ecumenical United Faculty of Theology - take up residence in Trinity for a sufficient period to make a contribution to its life and in particular to be known by its undergraduates.

Sir James Darling who was unable to attend on the evening because of ill-health sent a message which was read to the guests by Mr Michael Collins Persse:

2. To ensure the permanence of the Frank Woods Lectureship in Theology at Trinity College in the University of Melbourne.

It probably suffices to say that he was a good man, and almost universally accepted as such. This is an easier reputation to earn if a man is not eminent, and Frank Woods was forced by his position into prominence and by his ability into eminence. Yet his personal goodness is what he will be remembered for by most of us. (continued on page 11)

This full-time lectureship is placed in the Trinity Theological School in order to strengthen the Anglican contribution to the ecumenical study of theology through the United Faculty of Theology.

The three Graces meet together I Archbishop Sir Frank Little, Archbishop Peter Hollingworth, Mrs Audrey Rayner, and Archbishop Keith Rayner. 10


FOUNDATION REPORT 1993 Frank Woods Endowment (continued from page 10) At the heart of it all was humility and the readiness and the capacity to pray, which is to know what to ask for and to recognise the answer. These were the qualities which enabled him to be a leader, and particularly a leader in understanding. Approximately $1 million is required to achieve the purposes of the Endowment. To reach this target gifts at the following levels will need to be obtained. 1 5 10 10 30

$250,000 50,000 25,000 10,000 5,000

$250,000 250,000 250,000 100,000 150,000

Mr David Woods, son of the late Sir Frank, addresses the guests at the Frank Woods Endowment Dinner.

Leeper Society By June 1993, 127 Trinity persons were current members of the Leeper Society. Membership is reserved for those who signify their intention to leave a legacy to the Trinity College Foundation or the College. Some wish to remain anonymous but, as the list below discloses, the time span embraces more than 60 years.

John Frederick Thornton Grimwade A M ('26) who died on 14 November was the bearer of a distinguished Victorian name and Trinity one too. Like his father in 1914-18, John served in the Army. As a member of an AA regiment during World War II, he saw service in Tobruk and New Guinea. Later, he became a dedicated worker for Legacy for which his warm, caring personality well equipped him. He published short monographs on the Drug Houses of Australia, the Grimwade Family, his war exeriences and on the subject of trains, a life-long interest. In thankful spirit, the College Foundation extends sincere condolences to Lorna, his widow, and their family. John's loyalty to Trinity was unwavering and the receipt of his final gift will be celebrated in a future newsletter.

Ian Dejardin Mackinnon, who came up in 1934 to read law, finished his finals with an equal top in the second class honours bracket. His working life was spent solely with Blake and Riggal, where he later became a consultant, and an active one at that, until his death on 5 May, 1992. An artilleryman during WWII, Ian served with the 9th Division in North Africa (Alamein) and afterwards as a Commissioned Officer in Papua-New Guinea. His closest friends describe him as a remarkable person, sensitive and considerate to others and quietly courageous in handling his own misfortunes. With Karin and her extended family, Trinity shares their pride in the quality of his fine Christian life. Ian was a member of the Trinity College Foundation and a bequestor. Kathleen Theodosia Gardner a parishioner of St Paul's, Frankston, who died on 30 September, 1991, has left a benefaction for the funding of a theological student at the Trinity Theological School. The corpus of the bequest now amounts to $27,559 and is held by the Trust Corporation of the Diocese of Melbourne on behalf of the College. Mrs Gardner's generous bequest will go on sustaining the work of theological education at Trinity in perpetuity. In gratitude, she has been designated a Patron of the College Foundation. William Grey Manifold, who commenced Engineering Science in 1939, later enlisted in the RAAF . He gave outstanding service in Bomber Commmand U K, piloting Lancasters and Mosquito "Pathfinders". Decorated with the DFC and bar, he attained the rank of Squadron Leader. In between working the family property at Camperdown, he found time to write two books - "The wished-for land", recounting his family's pioneering settlement in Tasmania and the Western District and "Never a dull!", which vividly describes his Air Force career with observations on contentious contemporary issues. Both books are in the College Library. A person of many abilities, Bill was also a practising Churchman. His affection towards Trinity expressed itself in several donations to the College Foundation and a final bequest.
