DE PERSONIS ET REBUS AULARIBUS NEW BUILDINGS APPEAL PERHAPS the most important event of the year, so far as the Hall is concerned, has been the launching of its long expected Appeal for funds to enable it to carry out the extensions planned for the Forum site. The illustrated brochure giving details of the proj ected buildings and setting out the Hall's monetary requirements was sent to all old mern.bers whose addresses were available early in May, and follow-up letters were dispatched to those who had not as yet responded early in August. The Hall is grateful to the Visitor, Mr. Harold Macmillan, for allowing his name to appear at the head of those ,sponsoring the Appeal.

The total asked for, ÂŁ 350,000, sets an extremely ambitious target, but if the site is to be fully and worthily developed nothing less w ill, on any serious calculation, suffice. The Hall is well aware that in seeking to obtain this large sum it will have to rely almost wholly on its past and present members. The Appeal is naturally being sent to big trusts, industrial firms and other bodies which show a concern for higher education, and it is reasonable to expect that some at any rate of these will make contributions. It must be recognized, however, that there are definite limits to the amount of help which is likely to be forthcoming from such quarters, for literally scores of other colleges and educational institutions, many of them entirely new or with special local claims, are at the present I

moment issuing similar appeals. On the other hand, it is abundantly clear that, if every single Aularian does his best and makes use of the covenant scheme so far as is possible, the target is within our grasp.

As the Hall is an exceptionally close-knit society, it is not extravagant to hope that its members will, one and all, respond to the challenge as an act of piety and gratitude for the happy and profitable years they spent within its walls.

By mid-August, when these words were penned, the Appeal had made a slow but by no means discouraging start. Close on £20,000 had been subscribed, in gifts or promises, and in addition, as reported in the Appeal, the Junior Common Room had m ade its splendid gift of £ ro,ooo. The Aularian Association also had voted a generous donation of £1,000. At the same time the number of Aularians contr~buting to date barely exceeded 200, although there are not far short of 3,ooo on the Hall's books. The follow-up letters have begun to produce a response, but it is obvious that the vast majority of Aularians have not yet showed their hand. In order to tempt them to do so, fresh forms of Deeds of Covenant and Bankers' Orders are enclosed with each copy of the Magazine. Those who are already subscribers are asked to overlook these, but those who have hitherto been dilatory are earnestly requested to use them for forwarding · their subscriptions to the Principal.

The Magazine plans to publish a foll list of subscribers in next year's issue.

THE PRINCIPAL AND FELLOWS

BY THE NOMINATION of the Archbishop of Canterbury the Principal has joined the Church of England Council 011 InterChurch Relations and has become chairman of the Comrn.ittee for Relations with the Roman Catholic Church. He has been reelected to the Dispensation Committee, and has examined in the Preliminary Examination in Theology and also the Honour School of Theology. In January he delivered by invitation a course of lectures on 'The Eucharistic Sacrifice' at University College, Bangor. During the winter he was guest of honour representing the University at Oxford Society dinners at both Cardiff and Cologne.

He distributed the prizes at Bemrose School, Derby, and Merchiston Castle School, Edinburgh.

The Vice-Principal (Dr. G. D. Ramsay) is to be congratulated on the appearance of his edition of the account books of the Elizabethan mercer and merchant adventurer, John Isham. The Senior Tutor (Mr. C. W. F. R. Gullick) has been appointed Secretary to the Senior Tutors' Committee. The Dean (Rev. E. G. Midgley) has preached at Pusey House and the Royal Naval Barracks, Chatham, 2

and presented the prizes at Grange Grammar School, Bradford. He has had the distinction of having the newel post which he carved to his own design incorporated in the staircase of the new dining hall of St. Anne's College. Dr. Yardley has acted as Tutor at the Northern Illinois University Summer School held at Oriel College. He is to be congratulated on the birth of a fourth child, a son. Dr. Series has examined in the Final Honour School of Physics; early in March he paid a brief visit to the U .S.A. to read a paper to a scientific congress. Mr. Allen was Visiting Lecturer at the University of Iowa in February, and during the summer visited Zanzibar in pursuance of research. The Chaplain (Rev. H. E. J. Cowdrey) has examined in the Preliminary Examination in Modern History.

Mr. Barnes was on leave of absence abroad during part of the year.

Professor Hume-Rothery was in America in February attending the 1962 A.I.M.E. Annual Meeting in New York City; he lectured on 'The Problem of the Transition Metals' at the Seminar on Electronic Structures and Alloy Chemistry of Transition Elements.

In July he lectured and had discussions at the Dounreay Experimental Reactor Establishment at Thurso. Dr. Rossotti lectured by invitation at the Seventh International Conference on Coordination Chemistry in Stockholm in June; he also lectured to the Science Masters Association and the Royal Institute of Chemistry in Liverpool in April, his subject being the teaching of physical chemistry at a pre-university level. He is to be congratulated on publishing, in partnership with his wife, The Determination of Stability Constants.

AN HONORARY FELLOW HONOURED IN NOVEMBER, l 96 l, the Governing Body elected Mr. Isaac Wolfson, Chairman and Managing Director of The Great Universal Stores Ltd. and other associated Companies, to an Honorary Fellowship. There could be no more f).tting recognition of the munificent benefactions which The Isaac Wolfson Foundation, which he created in 1955, has made to education in Oxford and elsewhere and to the Hall in particular. About the same time the Junior Common Room, through its Picture Committee, asked and obtained Mr. Wolfson's permission to have his portrait painted in oils by a Jewish artist. Aularians will have noticed with satisfaction that in the New Year honours list H.M. the Queen announced her intention to create Mr. Wolfson a baronet in recognition of his philanthropic services. The Magazine is proud to congratulate an Honorary Fellow of the Hall in thus being singled out for well deserved honour.

3

A NEW FELLOWSHIP has elected D. I. Scargill, M.A., D.Phil., to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Geography. The Hall has had a Fellow in Geography since 1950 in the person of Mr. C. W . F. R. Gullick, but he has had to shoulder in addition to his teaching responsibilities the onerous duties of Senior Tutor. Further, Geography is one of the largest Honour Schools at the Hall, with an average annual intake of fifteen freshmen, and the need to spread the load of teaching and supervision cannot be doubted. Dr. Scargill is himself an Aularian, having obtained a brilliant First in 1957, and, in addition to being Departmental Lecturer in Geography, has been Lecturer at the Hall since 1959¡ The Magazine congratulates him on his promotion and wishes him every success.

THE GOVERNING BODY

VISIT OF A VISITOR ON ST. EDMUND' s DA y' I

96 I' at the invitation of the Principal and Fellows, the Visitor dined in hall at the special banquet with which the feast is amrnally cel~brated. Owing to the limited space .available it was impossible to accommodate all members of the Hall in residence, but most of the Senior Common Room (including Dr. Emden), the scholars and exhibitioners, and a representative selection of commoners were present. Mr. Macmillan, who reached the Hall by car from London shortly after 7 p.m., was in splendid form and obviously enjoyed himself immensely; indeed he stayed in the S.C.R. more than an hour beyond the prearranged schedule.

Without very much persuasion he made an admirable and witty impromptu speech, and in a subsequent letter of thanks to the Principal made it plain that he had fully apprised himself of the present position and aims of the Hall. Historians may care to note that this is the first occasion, according to the records available, on which a Visitor of St. Edmund Hall has dined in hall.

THE JUNIOR FELLOWSHIP v. A. ('DEL') KOL VE, B.A., who has been St. Edmund Junior Fellow since 1958, has been appointed Assistant Professor of English at Stamford University, California, and has therefore resigned his Fellowship. While sorry to lose him, the Hall cannot begrudge him his return to his native land, and warmly congratulates him on his appointment and wishes him every success and happiness in it. In his four years at the Hall he has not only given proof of his qualities as a scholar and a teacher, but has established himself firmly in the .affections of both the S.C.R. and the ].C.R. MR.

THE RIGHT REVEREND HERBERT HENRY WILLIAMS, C.H. , D.D .

To succeed him in his Fellowship (which readers will recall was founded through the generosity of the late Canon Claude Jenkins, D.D.), the Governing Body has elected Mr. Oswyn Murray, B.A., Amelia Jackson Senior Student of Exeter College. Mr. Murray obtained a brilliant First in Greats in 1961, and is at present engaged in research into the decline of Roman and the rise of Greek ideas of government in the first and second centuries of the Roman empire.

The Magazine extends to him a warm welcome to the Hall, and congratulates him on his election to the Pelham Studentship.

MEMORIAL SERVICES A MEMORIAL SERVICE for the late Right Rev. Henry Herbe7t Williams, C.H., D.D., sometime Principal of the Hall and then Bishop of Carlisle, who died on 28th September, 1961, was held in the Chapel at 2.15 p.m. on Saturday, 28th October, l96r. Among those taking part were the Principal and Fellows, Dr. Emden, and representatives of the Junior Common Room and of the domestic staff. Dr. Williams' sister and niece were also present, and representatives came from Hertford College, The Queen's College, and St. Hilda' s College. The choir sang the Russian Contakion for the Departed. ,A memorial service for Dr. Williams was held in Carlisle Cathedral at I2.l5 p.m. on Thursday, 12th October, 1962. The Hall was represented by the Rev. Canon R. T. Holtby, B.D.

BISHOP WILLIAMS LEGACY 'HIS WILL Bishop Williams bequeathed the residue of his estate, following the payment of all debts and certain pecuniary legacies, to the Hall, the disposal of the bequest being left to the absolute discretion of the Governing Body. The actual sum involved had not been ascertained at the time of going to press, but it is understood to be sufficient to provide the Hall with a useful addition to its modest endowments. Aularians will be profoundly grateful to the late Bishop, whose affection for the Hall remained tmdiminished till the end of his life, for his far-seeing generosity.

IN

THE LECTURERS DR. E. G. PHILLIPS, who has been Lecturer in Mathematics for many years, was elected to a Fellowship at Keble College at the end of Hilary Term, and as a result has resigned his appointment at the Hall. The Magazine congratulates him on his promotion. Since the 5

Hall now has a Fellow in Philosophy, Mr. M. A. E. Dummett, who is a Fellow of All Souls, has ceased to be Lecturer in this subject; Dr. Scargill has also ceased to be Lecturer in Geography, having been promoted to a Fellowship as reported above. Mr. N. G. Wilson, who was only appointed Lecturer in Classics a couple of years ago, has been obliged to resign in view of his election to a Fellowship at Lincoln College, on which the Magazine warmly congratulates him. By the time of going to press the Governing Body has not made any permanent appointments in Mathematics and Classics, but the Magazine notes with satisfaction that it has appointed B. W. G. Rose, M.A., D.Mus., formerly Organist of Queen's and now Fellow and Organist of Magdalen College, as Lecturer in Music. The Magazine congratulates Mr. N. Blewett on his marriage in September.

A GREAT HEADMASTER TH E MAG A z IN E

salutes the senior and most distinguished of Aularian headmasters, the Revd. Canon F. J. Shirley, D.D., on the termination this summer of his reign at The King's School, Canterbury. An accomplished historian and a noteworthy preacher, Dr. Shirley has presided over the school since 1935, surely an unprecedented span in modern times. Under his very personal leadership it has grown beyond recognition in numbers, buildings and material fortune, has acquired an enviable reputation for scholarship, music and the arts, and sport, and has developed a mature and friendly atmosphere which few schools can equal. The Hall, to which he has directed a steady stream of boys over the years, wishes Dr. Shirley every happiness in what it is confident will be an energetic and purposeful retirement.

GIFTS of the Hall are due to the following for gifts which they have presented:

THE BEST THANKS

The Aularian Association for a silver tankard to commemorate the sporting achievements of the year, and also for the gift of ÂŁ400 to the Scholarship Fund; Mrs. Browne-Wilkinson arrd family for a collection of books, historical and theological, belonging to the late Canon A. R. Browne-Wilkinson, Precentor of Chichester Cathedral; T. C. Wilkinson, Esq., for photographs of the Torpid of 1910 left by his late 'father, H. A. Wilkinson.

TRAVEL GRANTS from the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund were made to the following to assist them to make enterprising journeys abroad in the long vacation: P. J. Hayes (trip through southern Italy . and Sicily, partly on foot); D. Merrylees (walking tour in central Italy); D. J. H. Smith (bicycle tour in Italy, then back through France).

As a result of careful investment the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund now produces about £45 a year, and the grants which the Governing Body is able to make from it annually are generally agreed to be extremely useful. This year the Aularian Association has generously resolved to place a further sum of £60 at the disposal of the Principal for distribution on exactly the same terms as the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund. It should thus be possible to make somewhat larger, and perhaps more numerous, awards next year, always providing that undergraduates produce holiday projects which satisfy the rigorous standards demanded since the inception of the Ftmd.

MONETARY GRANTS

ST. EDMUND AT ABINGDON STRANGE though it may seem, the town of Abingdon on Thames has so far had no memorial to the most distinguished of her sons, Edmund Rich, who was one of the leading scholars of thirteenth century Oxford and the first Oxford man to sit on the throne of St. Augustine at Canterbury. Owing to the initiative of Dr. Emden, who is a Vice-President of the Friends of Abingdon, steps are to be taken before long to repair this omission. It is hoped that a commemorative stone may be placed in one of the arches on the outside of St. Nicholas' s Church, Abingdon. This is obviously the most suitable place because this is the only surviving building in the town which was partly ·contemporary with Edmund, and also because his mother, Mabel Rich, was originally buried in it. It has the additional advantage of occupying a very central position. No formal appeal is to be issued, but it is hoped that anyone who feels moved to contribute to the cost of the memorial will send his gift to Mrs. Liversidge, 28 East St. Helen's Street, Abingdon.

A PRODUCTION WITH A DIFFERENCE to be generally agreed that the John Oldham Society's production in Trinity Term of Turgenev's 'A Month in the Country' (of which a full report appears elsewhere in this issue) was something quite out of the ordinary for maturity, sophisticated

IT SEEMS

insight and sheer technical accomplishment. The Oxford Mail, usually a discerning critic, applied the adjective 'superb' to it, remarking that it had never seen so polished a show put on by undergraduates. The Times echoed the same note, saying that in this unique case it was not necessary to make the apologies and qualifications normally considered suitable when criticizing amateurs. The Hall is fortunate at the moment in having a group of keen and talented actors in residence. But the chief credit undoubtedly goes to Mr. Michael Rudman, a young graduate of Oberlin College, U.S.A., who entered the Hall last Michaelmas Term and who mastered the problems presented by this subtly elusive play with consummate skill. No greater compliment could have been paid to him and his troupe than to be invited by the Playhouse management to repeat the production early in August.

THE COVENTRY FESTIVAL to the Hall during the summer months must have noticed the altar-piece 'The Supper at Emma us', by Ceri Richards, had mysteriously vanished from the Chapel. This was not because it had fallen a prey to art thieves, still less because the College was having second thoughts about the wisdom of hanging it there. The reason was that the Governing Body, at the request of the Committee of the Coventry Cathedral Festival, had lent it for the exhibition of contemporary paintings, plate, furniture, etc. by contemporary artists held in connexion with the consecration of the new Cathedral. The exhibition was entitled 'The Artist Serves the Church', and was staged in the Municipal Art Gallery (the Herbert Art Gallery), Coventry. It may be of further interest to Aularians to learn that the Honorary Director of the Coventry Cathedral Festival was the Rev. Clifford E. Ross, whom many will remember as President of the J.C.R. in I949-50.

VISITORS

EASTERN ART Department of Eastern Art, housed in the once dingy but now elegantly transformed casts room of the Ashmolean Museum, is reckoned one of the richest, and most imaginatively displayed, collection of works from Persia, India, China and eastern Asia generally in the world. Its opening in Trinity Term by Princess Alexandra was one of those dignified but delightfully informal occasions of which the University luckily possesses the secret. Aularians can take pride in knowing that the Keeper of the new Department, who also supervised the transfer of the collection THE NEW

8

from the old Indian Institute to the Ashmolean, is Mr. P. C. Swann, one of the Hall's ablest post-war graduates. It is fair to add that Mr. Swann has the credit not only for awakening the University to the range and quality of the treasures in its possession, but also for helping it to add many fresh acquisitions through purchase, loan or gift.

FURTHER BUILDING RENOVATIONS made in last year's issue of the Magazine that the restoration work undertaken under the auspices of the O xford Historic Buildings Fund had been completed has proved to be premature. The technical experts who advise the Trustees of the Fw1d decided last winter that the north and west sides of the quadrangle needed attention, and as a result the scaffolding h as reappeared and the Hall has been resounding with the m ason's hammer and the fall of crumbling stonework throughout the year. The fapde of the Chapel and Old Library was the first to be finished, and now presents a brave, attractive appearance, with its graceful lines revealed by a thorough cleaning. The work on the long north frontage is inevitably slower and more laborious, for all the stonework needs careful re-pointing and in many places the dripcourse, the lintels or the window mullions have to be renewed. By midsummer about three-quarters of the necessary renovation had been carried out, and the general effect is agreed to be highly satisfactory.

The opportunity is being seized to have the sw1dial re-painted in glowing colours. Thus, when the operation is finally completed, the ancient buildings of the Hall should have a gay new look, and those who have rooms in them should be able to sleep with an added sense of security.

THE ANNOUNC E MENT

AN AULARIAN BIOGRAPHY THE MAGAZINE draws the attention of Aularians to the publication last autumn of P. E. T. Widdrington, by Maurice B. Reckitt (S.P.C.K., 18/6). Percy Widdrington, who died in 1959, was a priest who will be remembered for his association with the 'Christendom' movement and for his contribution to Christian Socialism, and no more fitting biographer could have been found for him than Mr. Reckitt.

THE SUMMER DANCE that this Summer Ball was the last one to be held in the Forum and to give one night of gaiety and beauty to that grim building. We hope that, if the Building Appeal goes as it should, the demolition men will be in there next year and not the hundreds of dancers who filled the place for this year's most successful affair.

The weather forecasters were right and we had a beautiful evening.

The Quad shone again under floodlights and even our old enemy the scaffolding, overlooking the open dance floor, was transformed into a Bower of Bliss with hundreds of silver leaves curling around it. Paul Burrough' s steel band played there again, in new and resplendent shirts.

The Forum w as again given a redecoration. The whole roof had been painted a deep blue (by one man, in 35 hours of work) and undulating seahorses floated against the blue, suspended from a criss-cross of white cord. Tim Clayton.' s band provided the music and the 'Southlanders' from the Blue Angel night club sang and danced a most lively and entertaining cabaret.

We would like to thank the Dance Committee for the. great amount of work which went into the arranging of this dance, and to congratulate them, the Bursar and the Dean for overcoming a mounting series of crises in the last hectic days before the dance, and still remaining sane.

IT MAY WELL BE

LONDON DINNER,

I962

THIS YEAR's DINNER was held once again on the second Tuesday in January. Whether old Aularians slipping in and out managed to bring the attendance up to the hundred mark is difficult to say, but the cavernous splendours of the banqueting room at Simpson's looked well filled with the diners whose names appear below.

We met, as usual, in a large, leathery, private bar-room (the entrance barred by a sign saying 'No Admission', or something similar) and greeted old friends before going upstairs to regale ourselves with smoked trout and roast duck. In contented mood amid the coffee cups and liqueurs we sat back to listen to the chairman, G. J. F. Brain, propose the toast 'Floreat Aula' . After welcoming the notable Aularians present and recalling with regret the death of Bishop Williams, the chairman referred to the magnificent benefaction that the Hall had received from the Wolfson Foundation.

He felt sure that Aularians would respond to the Appeal that was to be launched and pointed out that ÂŁ50 from every Aularian would II

produce the additional sum needed. Sounding a note of apprehension, with which many Aularians would sympathize, he hoped that an increase in the size of the Hall would not tend to disturb the atmosphere of intimate friendliness which gave to the Hall, centred as it now is in one small quad, its special character. Mr. Brain thought that the country could today do with more of the qualities a society like the Hall was able to engender. After commenting on recent Hall successes (including the Principal' s minor coup in getting our St. Edmund's Day into the University Kalendar) the chairman concluded with thanks to Neville Williams for the work he had done in organising the dinner and a friendly plug for the Coventry Cathedral Festival, whose bonhomous Aularian director the Revd.

Clifford Ross, was present, busily issuing (through the head waiter) propaganda' for that notable ecclesiastical and artistic occasion.

Replying to the toast, the Principal commented on Aularian successes in many fields, including the gaining of nine Firsts, and several appearances in the New Year's Honours List. The Hall's 'vulgarly successful' sporting reputation had, he noted, received a slight setback, but he was sure that, in reality, those concerned were applying the principle reculer pour mieux sauter.

Turning to the building programme and taking up a point of the chairman's, the Principal explained that the Hall family was not to be destroyed but was to be provided with mod. con.; great care would be taken to preserve the intimate atmosphere. Mr. Louis ' Osman, the architect commissioned to carry out the building scheme was noted for his sensitive work and 'good touch'. The Wolfson benefaction was one of the largest single gifts the Foundation had made in recent years. New freeholds needed to be purchased and it was very desirable that the building of both the dining hall and kitchen block and the new living quarters should be carried out at the same time.

The Annual General Meeting of the Association was held in the Emden Room after Chapel.

The minutes of the previous meeting, having been published in the Magazine, were taken as read . .

The Treasurer gave a summary of the accounts (printed at the end of this Magazine) which were approved.

The President announced that the following allocations had been made by the Executive Committee: £225 for the Directory; £225 for the Magazine ; £400 for the Scholarship Fund; £100 for the Sports Grant Fund; £60 for the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund and £30 for a tankard to commemorate the year's sporting successes. £ 1000 had been subscribed to the building Appeal Fund from capital. £100 had been set aside from the Publications Fund to assist the publication of Mr. Ruddqck Mackay' s life of Admiral Hawke.

Messrs. Williams, Brees and Day, the retiring members of the Executive Committee, were re-elected.

It was agreed to hold the next Reunion on Saturday 20 June, 1963.

At the Reunion dinner the toast of Floreat Aula was proposed by the Principal. He said that he surveyed a large and varied company which included members admitted by Dr. Moore. Many had come to Hall during the Principalship of Dr. Emden, whose absence they regretted. He was however happily engaged in collecting obscure wild flowers as a change from his great task of collecting obscure Cambridge men for the mediaeval Who's Who which he had been asked to write for the other University.

The Hall had scored 9 Firsts last year and its reputation was far from being a wholly sporting one. The John Oldham Society's production of A Month in the Country had been praised as the best undergraduate production for many years. We had managed· to assemble a few cups-rugger, athletics and tennis.

The appeal for new buildings had been launched. The Hall had bought the freehold of the site by selling half its investments. The acquisition of this site would give space for a new dining hall of adequate size with common rooms and kitchens, together with a new residential block of 90 new rooms. Thanks to the bounty of the Wolfson Foundation the dining hall block could be erected now, but it was essential for the well-being of the Hall that the building of the residential block should go ahead at the same time as that of the dining hall. The money for this had to be raised by the Hall. If every old member covenanted to give £5 a year for ten years, the L.W.H. object of the appeal would be met.

The Reverend Canon George Branson, Honorary Canon of Southwark, died in August, l96r. Entering the Hall in 1902, he read Modern History and then Theology, and was ordained in the Southwark diocese in 1906.

He published several books and articles on the teaching and life of the Church of England. He was a member of the Executive Committee of the Aularian Association.

The Reverend Atherley Hill-Jones, who matriculated in 1905, died in l96r. After reading Modern History at the Hall, he was ordained in the diocese of Norwich, and after serving a curacy at Norwich became Chaplain and Assistant Master at Trinity College, 34

Glenalmond. He returned south in 1918, and after serving a couple of curacies became successively Vicar of St. Matthew' s, Stepney, and of Steppingly. He returned to Scotland for the last ten years of his ministry, being Rector of Blairgowrie from 1946 to 1956.

Arthur Benjamin Hodgson, for more than twenty years headmaster of Archbishop Holgate's School, York, died on l5th October, 1961, at the age of 62.

HERBERT HENRY WILLIAMS

With the death of Bishop Williams on .28th September, 1961, the Hall lost the senior of its Honorary Fellows and the sometime Principal who had bridged the difficult gap between the pre-1914 era of its history and the epoch of rapid expansion which opened in the twenties. He was 88 when he died, and, inevitably, few, if any, of recent generations of Aularians had more than the slightest knowledge of 'Burglar Bill', as he was familiarly known in Oxford, when they gazed up at his portrait in hall or sat in the lecture-room bearing his name. Nevertheless he counted in earlier days as one of the most vigorous figures in the University, and later as one of the ablest and most influential members of the bench of bishops.

The career of Herbert Henry Williams can be briefly summarized.

Born at Poppleton, York, on l9th December, 1872, he was the eldest son of the Rev. J. Williams, Vicar of the parish. He was educated at St. Peter' s School, York, and then went to Queen's College, O xford, as a Hastings Exhibitioner. At O xford he took a Second in Honour Classical Moderations, and a First in Greats (philosophy was always his chief interest), and was awarded the Aubrey Moore Studentship. Ordained deacon in 1900 and priest in 1901, he was Fellow of Hertford College from 1899 to 1914. In 1913 Queen's appointed him Principal of the Hall, and this position he held until 1920, combining it until 1917 with the Rectory of Gatcombe. In June, 1920, he was nominated to the see of Carlisle, and was consecrated bishop in August of that year. He remained at Carlisle for the rest of his active life, resigning the see in 1946 and retiring to Chester, where he died. He was Select Preacher at Oxford in 1909-ro, 1918-19 and 1938, and at Cambridge in 1921 and 1926. He was elected to H onorary Fellowships at Hertford College, Queen's College, and the Hall; he was also Trustee of the Hall under the old statutes from 1927 to 193 8, and again under the later statutes from 1938 to 1950. St. Hilda's College elected him its Visitor, and in 1945 he was created a Companion of Honour.

As a bishop Dr. Williams devoted himself unstintingly to his diocese and, in spite of a retiring disposition, proved an outstanding leader and a rock of strength to his clergy. He had a shrewd understanding of men, and a real personal interest in them. Many regretted that his absorption in his pastoral duties prevented him from taking that large part in the affairs of the Church as a whole for which his character and talents seemed to mark him out. He became known to a wider public, however, by his chairmanship of the Archbishops' Commission on the Ministry of Women which was set up as a consequence of the report of the Committee on the Ministry of the Church to the 1930 Lambeth Conference; and he 36

was a useful member of the Church and State Commission. Perhaps ¡ even more important, he enjoyed the confidence of the Archbishops, and was one of the small group of bishops whose counsel was immensely valued and who in effect shaped matters of major policy behind the scenes. As a churchman he was distrustful of new organizations, maintaining that 'the Church of England already possesses all the machinery necessary for its life and needs if it had the will to use it'.

Influential, however, though he was as a prelate and much loved as a diocesan, it can fairly be said that at heart he remained the thinker and don of his earlier years. As has already been stated, his interests lay in philosophy, and as a younger man he contributed a brilliant series of articles on ethical subjects to the current edition of The Encyclopaedia Britannica. The most noteworthy was one concenung 'Will', which many considered one of the most cogent discussions of the perennial problem of free will and determinism.

His dunking, however, had been shaped in the critical Idealism fashionable in Oxford in the latter years of the r9th and earlier decades of the 2oth centuries, and as he grew older he found himself increasingly out of touch with, and unsympathetic towards, the new philosophical trends making themselves felt in Britain. He kept himself abreast of plulosophical writing till the last, but often confessed his regret at its surrender to what he could only regard as irrational tendencies. Because he was so honest a thinker, with an approach to life and its problems so rationally based, he was able to exert a remarkable personal influence on numbers of thoughtful men and women of his own generation and the one immediately following it.

Dr. Williams' s tenure of the Principalslup of the Hall coincided, with a small overlap on either side, with the period of the First War. Inevitably it was a time of great difficulty and anxiety, but under his wise guidance the Hall was brought through it successfully and was able to face the era of peace revitalized. Indeed it was ren1arked in the first issue of the Magazine, published in 1920 shortly after the news of his translation to Carlisle, that from the moment of his election Dr. Williams had inspired the Hall with a new sense of its vocation in Oxford, and had impressed this as much without its walls as within. In everything he did he was wonderfully supported by Mrs. Williams, whom Aularians of that time soon learned to love. When he moved north, he built up a strong and lasting connection between the Hall and the Carlisle diocese by attracting thither a succession of able clergy. Nor did his interest in and concern for the Hall in any way dirniiush. As Trustee continuously from 1927 to 1950 he played his part in the critical 37

decisions which were taken in those years, and his counsel was greatly valued by those who had direct charge of its fortunes.

Short in stature, he looked out on the world from under bushy eyebrows which were a little reminiscent (it has been remarked) of Archbishop Lord Davidson. His force of character and clarity of mind, and also his essential kindliness, were at once apparent to anyone with whom he spoke. Here was a man who, if he was impatient of nonsense or sham, understood and valued his fellowmen, and whom they in return could not help admiring, respecting and holding in sincere affection.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE DEBATING SOCIETY FOR THE FIRST TIME in its long history the Debating Society held no meetings. It would appear that lack of enthusiasm or the absence of the organizing spirit caused this. The Magazine very much regrets that it is therefore unable to print its usual report and hopes that in the coming year there will be a revival of what has always been considered the Senior Society of the Hall.

THE ESSAY SOCIETY

MICHAELMAS ¡ TERM President: J. N.

DAVIE

s. c. WILKINSON opened the academic year with his essay 'Applied Archeology', discussing modern architecture. At the next meeting I. M. Walker read his 'Quis Custodes Custodiet', the subject covered by the timeless tag being the psychoanalysis of dreams.

G. E. A. Kentfield followed with pyrotechnics in his essay 'Primitiae', about modern world-politics. D. K. 'Bowen read next, having given his essay the neo-classical title of 'Technicosis', looking deeply into the philosophy of modern science. On the following Sunday the society regaled itself with excellent port and dessert. T. W. Cooper took the essayist's chair at the head of a visibly prosperous table and matched the prevailing mood admirably with his 'The Salt of the Earth', on the rising midle class of Victorian England. F. H. Bird's essay entitled 'Wogs' was a soul-stirring plea for Welsh nationalism.

The Society dined magnificently at the last meeting of term and the President handed over the reins to R. J. Bishop who went for a last canter with his 'Celestial Cocktails'. Inviting guests to a celestial cocktail party he was at a loss to complete his list, especially of . women guests, but the assembled masculinity of the Society came gallantly to his aid.

J.N.D. HILARY TERM President: R. J. BISHOP The term began with 'Standeth afar off' in which J. Walters contrasted the simplicity of the idea of justice with its inconsistent 39

application on earth and with the different idea of divine justice.

J. S. M. Harpham sought the beginnings of revolution in the current atmosphere of public demonstrations and strikes, in his essay 'Wine, Women and Pong'. A. ]. Haydon discussed 'The Probability of Life' with a description of recent chemical evidence on the basic units of living cells. W. D. H. Sellar, in his essay 'Intolerance and Fantasy' begged us to keep an open mind when considering the improbable and mysterious. In 'Missionary Stew' popular and other images of the missionary were discussed by J. D. Kesby. D. F. Braund' s 'The Gentle Word' stressed the need for a spirit of revolution to counter present acceptance of the government's drifting policy. R. J. Bishop's 'North Beach' was a digest of his impressions of a visit to North America.

HIBBARD

In his essay 'A Castle in the Air' E. P. Smith produced a learned explanation of opposing aesthetic and existentialist approaches to literature. H. W. S. Norvill entertained the Society with an extremely humourous consideration of the 'Topsy-Turvydom' of modern values. In 'Rheum Rhaponticum', R.T. Jackson drew a bitter analogy between methods of forcing rhubarb and specialisation in education. On the Sunday after Eights Week the Society enjoyed port and dessert and an analysis oflife in Newfoundland by B. D. Kingstone, ex-President of the Society. B. A. Shayler explained the attraction which certain forms of modern Hindu thought held for him. At the last meeting of term, after an outstanding dinner,]. 1. Hibbard in his essay 'Arcadia', surveyed the validity and implications of forward-looking and backwardlooking philosophies.

THE MUSICAL SOCIETY President: B. K. JEFFERY Secretary: D. M. BOLTON

MICHAELMAS TERM THE MUSICAL SOCIETY continues to produce one concert a term, performed by gentlemen of the Hall of musical inclinations and talents. The Michaelmas Term brought with it a fair influx of

40

musically inclined Freshmen who lent their ready support and enthusiasm to our activities.

This term's concert was performed twice, once at the invitation of the Rev. T. Griffiths to an invited audience at Great Tew church, and once in St. Peter' s in the East for the edification of gentlemen of the Hall who, for the most part, preferred not to come. The main features of the programme were two choral works: 'In Ecclesiis' by Giovamu Gabrieli, and 'Inter Bracchia Salvatoris Mei' by Heinrich Schlitz. The rest of the programme comprised other early seventeenth century music for wind consort and organ.

HILARY TERM This term it was thought that a chiefly instrumental programme would suit best, and so a concert was arranged in which a number of aspiring soloists imparted noises, pleasant and unpleasant, to a small but intrigued audience. Deserving of special mention was J. H. Alexander's work for male voices, 'Two M ediaeval Carols'.

TRINITY TEPM The summer concert was arranged as usual for the Thursday of Eights Week. Fair weather permitted the performance to take place in the Quadrangle and a large audience gathered to listen. With the . exception of a Beethoven Wind Quintet, the p.rogramme featured early music; five pieces for string quintet by Antony Holbourne (d. 1603), two songs for tenor and lute by Robert Jones (Mus. Bae. St. Edmund Hall, 1597), two more songs for tenor and lute, words

by William Shakespeare, music by Thomas Morley (1600) , another song for tenor and lute by John Dowland, and finally five dances by Michael Praetorius (1612) for consort of wind and strings.

The last of these readings was pla1med as a punt party but was transferred indoors at the last minute and a lavish buffet supper provided. We were fortunate in being able to arrange in conjunction with the O.U. Russian Club a lecture by Dr. Freeborn on 'Turgenev the Dramatist'.

The Secretary has been asked to direct the E.T.C. major production next term.

P.S.

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: S. C. WILKINSON Secretary: H. W. S. NORVILL

MICHAELMAS TERM THERE WERE THREE MEETINGS this term. At the first Dr. Schenk of University College addressed the Society on the subject of 'The Romantic Nostalgia for the Past'. On October 3rst, Professor Wernham of Worcester College read a paper on 'Elizabethan Agents and Ambassadors', describing the workings of the espionage

42

system established to thwart the invasion which threatened from Spain at the end of the reign. Dr. Green of Lincoln College, at the last meeting, gave the Society a fascinating introduction to the subject of the health of ministers and rulers in his paper on 'The Madness of Kings'.

HILARY TERM On January 3oth Mr. A. E. Campbell ofKeble College spoke on 'British Foreign Policy since the War', stressing the fact that since 1945 British foreign policy had been dominated by the experience of the Second World War. At the second meeting, two members of the Society, G. E. A. Kentfield and E. P. F. Rose gave a talk on the Graeco-Roman civilisation of North Africa, illustrated with slides. In his presidential paper, Mr. S. C. Wilkinson gave a most interesting account of the influence of the detective stories of the r92o's aD;d r93o's on the political views of their readers.

TRINITY TERM This term there was only Ol1;e meeting-a visit to the Bodleian.

About a dozen members were guided round the underground storage rooms, tunnels, stairs and lifts by Mr. Hanson, an Aularian and Keeper of Western Books, and shown the Duke Humphrey Library now in the process of being restored, and the conveyer system which brings up books from the underground shelves. This enjoyable afternoon ended with a view of Oxford from the rooÂŁ H.W.S.N.

THE LIDDON SOCIETY President: P. G. BRETT Secretary: G. E. A. KENTFIELD

MICHAELMAS TERM THE CUSTOMARY FRESHMEN'S MEETING opened the term's programme and the Chaplain spoke about religion in Oxford and the work of the denominational societies in Oxford was explained by their various representatives. On October 27th Dr. Austin Farrer ¡ addressed the society on 'The why and how of meditation'. A fortnight later 'Liturgy and Society' was the subject of the Rev. Donald Allchin's talk. The Rev. Wolf Miiller, Vicar ofWigmore, gave an illustrated talk on 'Refugees in Europe' the following week.

The subject of the final meeting was 'Salvation' and the views of three denominations were offered by the Minister of Woodstock 43

Road Baptist Church, the Rev. Alec Judd, the Assistant R.C. Chaplain to the University, the Rev. Richard Incledon and the Chaplain of Worcester College, the Rev. Alec Graham.

HILARY TERM The Principal ofWycliffe Hall, the Rev. John Taylor, spoke about 'The Authority of Scripture'. At the Annual General Meeting, G. E. A. Kentfield was elected President and J. M. Folliard Secretary.

The retiring President's father, the Rev. George Brett, gave a provocative talk on 'Are the Clergy really necessary?' Despite the small attendance, an interesting discussion ensued. On March 6th a devotional talk was given by the Rev. Leslie Holden, Chaplain of Trinity College on 'The Death of Christ'.

TRINITY TERM President: G. E. A.

KENTFIELD

Secretary: J.M. FOLLIARD The first n1eeting consisted of a Brains Trust. The Dean and the Chaplain represented the Dons and M. D. N. Mullins and the President the undergraduates. The meeting was well attended and enjoyable. At the second meeting Douglas Hayward, organiser of the Dulverton Youth Scheme, gave us food for thought with a talk on 'Youth and the Youth Service'.

Society prayers were held every Thursday in term.

THE SOCIETY OF COSMOGRAPHERS

President: D. G. WILSON Secretary: C. J. G. ATKINSON THE SOCIETY held two meetings this year. In the Michaelmas Term a cocktail party was given by the members to which guests were invited. The aim of this first meeting is to introduce Freshmen to the second and third year geographers and various members of other faculties. By the Trinity Term it is assumed that all members of the Society are well acquainted with each other and in a true amicable spirit a buffet supper party is given near the beginning of term. This year the supper party was an exclusive meeting at which only members and dons were present.

QUANTA

Chairman: A. J. HILLEL Secretary: J. M. HA WORTH

MICHAELMAS TERM AT THE ONLY MEETING of term the Society heard a talk by Dr. M. G. Adam entitled 'Astronomical evidence for the gravitational red-shift'. Dr. Adam described how this shift was detected and measured, and gave an account of the theory of the shift. She also discussed the physics of the surface of the sun.

HILARY TERM At its first meeting the Society heard a most interesting talk on 'Physics in Physiology', by Dr. R. H. Kay of the University Department of Physiology. Dr. Kay explained in detail the processes of stimulation of nerves and the transmission of information along nerves, using the physical analogy of a transmission line. The second speaker was Mr. P. Heafford, w hose subject was the teaching of science in schools. A number of other science students were guests of the Society, and Mr. Heafford's criticism of many aspects of the present system stimulated one of the liveliest discussions the Society has yet had.

J.M.H.

THE CONTEMPORARY LITERATURE SOCIETY

President: Y. LOVELOCK

MICHAELMAS TERM AT THE FIRST MEETING Mr. Kolve drew a record attendance, well deserved, for his provoking talk on Becket's 'Waiting for Godot'. The second talk on 'The Principles of D. H. Lawrence's criticism' was given by M. van W. Smith. At the end of this term Mr. J. H. Alexander relinquished his presidency.

45

HILARY TERM At the first meeting P. Rothstein of B.N.C. spoke on 'Philosophical aspects of J. P. Sartre's fiction and theatre', after which there was an involved and interesting discussion. P. J. Dale read a paper on 'The Poetry of Stephen Spender' at the second meeting, and the third talk, scheduled to be on Camus but cancelled at the last minute, was finally a paper by the President entitled 'Towards an interpretation of Kafka'. This brought, among others, two St. Hilda' s girls to air their tutor's views.

TRINITY TERM At the first meeting we had a talk on Sillitoe by M. Wilding of Lincoln College, covering the whole aspect of the 'tough working class' school of writers. The . second talk on Lorca was given by F. Garcia-Bravo, a Spaniard learning English here. It was successful but perhaps it was inevitable that the discussion should centre and stick around bullfighting.

We are grateful to the Dean for his kindness in letting us use his room for all the year's meetings except the first; to Mrs. Bucket and Raymond for their patience and alacrity in producing beer when requested, usually at the very last minute. It was gratifying to note that in addition to the small core of 'old faithfuls', there were new faces at every meeting.

THE CHESS CLUB Captain: J. N. Secretary: P. L. AFTER THE CLUB' s success

DAVIE BROWNE

last season, this has been a disappointing year. The cuppers team remained almost unchanged, strengthened by the inclusion of D. Cruden. We were unfortunate to be knocked out of the competition in the second round by the W adham team, whom we had beaten to reach the Final last year.

In the League competition we fared . rather better, the 2nd IV being promoted to the First Division, in which we are the only .

College to have two teams.

G. C. Warner is to be congratulated on playing for the Unicorns against Cambridge. M. 0. C. Joy, J. N. Davie and D. Cruden also represented the University during the year.

P.L.B.

THE SCOPE CLUB Presidents: A. MACLACHLAN; B. ROBSON; J. HINKS Secretaries: K. HINKLEY-SMITH; R. McCuLLAGH; C. ATKINSON ACCORDANCE with the constitution of the Club, members (or rather brothers) have held weekly meetings throughout the last three Conferences. These meetings, as will be remembered, are for the purpose of promoting the scope movement in Hall, and in the execution of this policy we should like to assure all former members that their labours in the early days have not been in vain. This has not meant that we have not confronted many problems. There are certain brothers who seem quite incapable of observing various clauses in the constitution and for this reason the Club was forced to elect a Disciplinary Officer, chosen on the grounds of his ruthlessness, stature and character. During the last two Conferences A. MacLachlan and R. Wilcock have held this responsible position. With their help and that of the majority of the brothers, the minority has, we feel, been brought under control either by expulsion or severe caution.

In a generally democratic atmosphere, however, the club has enjoyed full programmes during each of the Conferences. All scopes have been 'good scopes' of course, and all brothers are familiar with the adverts.

The Hall entered two m1successful crews for the Christ Church Regatta and the Queen's Long Distance Race. Balliol proved to be faster in both events.

J. C. D . Sherratt, who later rowed in the University Crew, coached the winning Junior Trial VIII. J. F. Adey, E. A. Downing and T. R. R . Richards rowed in Junior Trials.

HILARY TERM The First Torpid started training a week before the b~ginning of term under C. E. L. Mather Esq. followed by M. L. Pelham Esq., S. C. Farmer and E. A. S. Hutchinson.

The 0. U.B.C. reverted to Bumping races this year owing to the building of the new Donnington Road bridge. St. Jolm' s held off the Hall's challenge of the first night, but the Hall went Head of the River on Thursday night where they remained holding off the challenge of Christ Church.

The 2nd Torpid, coached by B. T. C. Morris was bumped on the first night by Christ Church II but went up on the Friday night to keep its 29th position on the river.

The 3rd Torpid coached by S. C. Farmer covered itself in glory by making four bumps, and so becoming the highest third boat at 37th on the river. ' Bow

TRINITY TERM The outstanding feature of the Trinity Term was that the Hall had six Eights on the river in Eights Week for the first time.

The first VIII coached by P. J. Reynolds Esq. trained at Kingston for a week before the start of term. Dr. D. H . Richards took over the boat for the next fortnight at Godstow, which then moved to Henley for the final part of its training under D. H. Mays-Smith Esq. Christ Church bumped the Hall on the first night, and in so doing went Head of the River. The Hall remained 2nd on the other three nights.

The 2nd VIII went down three places and the 3rd VIII ended one place up, while the Schools VIII was deprived of making 5 bumps by unorthodox tactics by the opposition. The Novice VIII went up a place while the Rugger VIII gallantly went down 3 places amid memorable scenes of flying spray and sinking boats. Later the Rugger VIII split into two Fours which rowed at Stratford-onAvon Regatta.

THE CRICKET CLUB Captain: A.

MACLACHLAN

Secretary: T.

COGHLIN

in spite of an over-full fixture list, and the pressure of Schools and other examinations on some of its best players, had a successful and enjoyable season. A very positive approach to the game produced some exciting finishes and the minimum of dull draws. When individuals scored it was always in an attractive manner. The only really depressing feature of the season was the repeated inability of the. Secretary to win the toss during a prolonged heatwave when our captain was away playing for the University.

Unbounded thanks are due to G. L. W. Ritchie on running the 2nd XI with such efficiency and success. On one occasion he even talked the 1st XI into cancelling their game so that his side should not be short of players !

Next season's officers are: Captain: J. J. McPartlin; Vice-Captain: K. L. Hinkley-Smith; Secretary: R. Padfield.

The following were awarded their colours: K. L. Hinkley-Smith, R. Lamb, A. Lewin, P. Moody, M. Roberts, R. Padfield, P. Wilson, G. Marsh.

T.C. THE Is T xr

DANISH CRICKET TOUR Denmark may not be very well known for cricketing talent, but nevertheless most of the big towns do boast a cricket team, and with the intention of defeating three of these, a party of nine left Liverpool Street on August 3rd. Thence from Harwich over a calm North Sea to the Hook of Holland where a tenth man, flown from Southend to Rotterdam, joined the party; a long train journey to Hamburg and a further ten hours by train to Aalborg where we met the eleventh member of our team who had been touring in Germany. ¡ The first game, against Aalborg Chang turned out to be the best, probably because the opposition included the Test .Match captain and opening bowler, Peter Christensen, and their leading batsman Klaus Buss. The Danes made 111 and the Hall opening bats managed 10 runs in the 50 minutes before the close of the first day's play. The following day the Hall made 114 for seven declared. The Danes scored 147 for 7 declared, leaving us 145 to win. Thanks largely to 51

fine innings by P. Frost and T. Coghlin, we won. A pleasant evening followed with a friendly and-to many-a welcome exchange of a certain green and yellow cricket cap for a black and white Chang cap.

Our second match was at Hj0rring, which was the farthest north we reached on the tour. We fitted in a swim at the coast before¡ the game in which the Danes made n9 and 47 and we scored 206 for 6 declared, Frost making no not out.

We then returned to Aalborg and thence to Copenhagen for two days' sightseeing. That evening we returned by boat to Aarhus, where we were excellently entertained as we had been at Aalborg and Hj0rring, but rather miserably displayed our gratitude by gaining our third victory. We made 183 for 5 declared and no, while Aarhus reached 121 and 73.

The Danish people we found very friendly, the food not bad (except for the sm0rrebrod), the language unnecessary as nearly everyone spoke English. We only learnt one word very well. This was 'og', which we believe means 'and', but which became the tour password and w as used in a wide variety of circumstances.

We would like to thank the J.C.R. for their generous grant which alone made the tour possible.

MICHAELMAS TERM against Battersea College the largely Freshmen's XV was only narrowly defeated 14-lI. In further friendly games, Bath United and R.M.C.S. Shrivenham were both beaten, 12-II and 3-0 respectively. In the League the Hall started off with a 27-0 win over last year's winners, Trinity, but then lost to Corpus, St. Peter's College and St. John's, to finish fourth.

The second XV won their League yet again. They had a splendid season, capped by beating St. John's 5-3 in the League decider. Their record was l 3l . points for; l 5 against.

The following members of the club were invited by the Captain of O.U.R.F.C. to play against C.U.R.F.C.: M. A. Ware, J. J. McPartlin, T. Cass, J. A. Collingwood and J. A. H. Curry.

After the match J. J. McPartlin was elected Captain of the O.U.R.F.C. for the season 1962-3.

IN A FINE GAME

52

HILARY TERM The .Cuppers XV started off with a friendly match against Durham Colleges whom they beat in splendid fashion. In the first round of Cuppers, St. John's were decisively beaten 45-0. Corpus then produced very spirited opposition to be beaten 5-0. The Hall met Worcester in the semi-final, winning 16-3. B.N.C. were our opponents in the Final and the Hall's 20-6 victory was an extremely satisfactory end to the season. In the friendly games the Hall beat Christ's, Cambridge and Reading University, and lost to Emmanuel, Cambridge.

Colours were awarded to: E. W. Anderson, D. Balchin, I. Carruthers,]. D. Coake, P. Gush,J. Heggadon, R.H. Lamb, A.J. A. Lewin, D. A. McCammon, R. A. McCullough, P. M. Newell, A. Rix, A. Rowland, R.

MICHAELMAS TERM A NUMBER of interesting and enjoyable friendly games were played during the term. Two heavy defeats were received at the hands of Battersea College of Technology and Guy's Hospital.

Two wins were recorded, against Fitzwilliam House at Cambridge and Icarus in the Parks. The game against Imperial College resulted in a draw, whilst the Old Aularians defeated us 4-3.

The League eleven had an average term, gaining six points from seven games and finishing half-way up the League.

The Choughs had a fair term, finishing in third place, with victories over St. Catherine' s and Queen's and a draw at Fitzwilliam House. Two good games were played against the strong St. Peter' s College 2nd XI, both ending in defeat by the odd goal.

In the final game a much depleted side lost 6-1 to Westminster College.

53

HILARY TERM The big disappointment of this term was the failure to retain the Cup. We had a good start in defeating Oriel 6-r, but after two very close victories against St. Peter' s and Brasenose, we were knocked out by Queen's in the semi-final.

Three Saturday friendlies were played during the term, with a draw against the London School of Economics and a narrow defeat at the hands of Emmanuel College, Cambridge.

Some interesting Chough friendly games were played, notable performances including victories over Ruskin, Oriel and St. Catherine' s, with a draw against University rst XL We would like to congratulate the following on being awarded their colours: T.].

THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: G. C. L.

COOPER

Hon. S ecretary: A. MACLACHLAN THIS YEAR the Hockey Club enjoyed slightly more success than last, although the Cup still proved to be elusive. The Cuppers side swept all before it on its way to the final, defeating Christ Church, Balliol, New College and Trinity-scoring 22 points and conceding only 3. However, the inability to score from short corners, and a crowded B.N.C. defence resulted in the Hall's defeat in the Final.

The Hall was however rewarded by winning the League for the first time. We had the same success in friendly games throughout the season, the most noteworthy win being over Nottingham University. On tour at the Folkstone Festival a well-balanced Hall side achieved a creditable record, losing only once to an unbeaten side.

The following played for O.U.H.C. v. C.U.H.C.: M.A. Elmitt, M. Y eger, D. Pi they, M. Roberts, P. ]. Wilson, D. van Coller.

THE LAWN TENNIS CLUB

ONCE AGAIN

Captain: M. YEGER Secretary: G. C. WARNER the Lawn Tennis Club has had a very successful

season.

We started off in April with a short tour around Dublin as last year. All four matches were won and the team enjoyed good weather and wonderful hospitality. We were able to return some of this at the beginning of term when Trinity College, Dublin, on tour, spent two days with us. We had a splendid match with them at Norham Gardens, eventually winning 6-3.

When inter-college fixtures began, it was evident that we were going to be relatively very strong. Sure enough, the League title was retained with five victories out of five.

The Hall also won Cuppers for the third year in succession. After a tense quarter-final against Merton, Trinity were beaten 6-o in the semi-final and St. Catherine' s 9-2 in the final.

Players have done well individually also. J. A. H. Curry, in his third year in the side, captained the University team. M. F. Sproule and C. J. G. Atkinson played for the Penguins against the Cambridge Grasshoppers. A. C. Garrod and M. F. Sproule were elected to the Penguins L.T.C. There are a number of promising freshmen who have mostly played in the secoÂľd VI but should do well next year.

The following have represented the Hall in Cuppers or the League:J.A.H.Curry, M.Yeger, C. D. H. Harvey, C.J. G. Atkinson, A. C. Garrod, G. C. Warner, M. F. Sproule, G. Josipovici, R. C. S. Clark, A. G. Rix, K. Hindle, A. M. W. Graham and P. M. Newell.

Colours were awarded to M. F. Sproule and R. C. S. Clark.

Next year's officers will be: Captain, C. J. G. Atkinson and Secretary, A. G. Rix. G.C.W.

THE ATHLETICS CLUB President: M. RALPH Secretary: H. WHEELER THIS YEAR has been a most successful one. In Michaelmas Term we carried out part of our threat of last year and managed to regain the Field Events cup after a very close fight with Keble. As usual Ralph had no difficulty in beating all opposition in the Hop, Step and Jump and the Long Jump. Ware threw well to win the discus and was only just beaten in the shot by Freshman Sutherns. Unfortunately we did not manage to regain the Track Relay cup.

55

Our real truimph came in Cuppers when after one walk-over we went on to the final round with an easy victory over Balliol, Wadham and Trinity. Owing to bad conditions the final did not take place until the beginning of Trinity Term and, against all the form, we beat Brasenose by a margin of nineteen points. In the final Ralph once again distinguished himself by winning the Long Jump and the Hop, Step and Jump while Ware won both the discus and the shot. We were without Van Dyck for the final, but Smith jumped well to take third place. The greatest performance of all was by Sutherns who, without having run a quarter for many months, came a very worthy second. The rest performed very creditably, especially Blair who did extremely well to come second in both the 880 and the three miles.

H.W.

THE CROSS-COUNTRY CLUB Captain : G. R. Walmsley

MICHAELMAS TERM IT WAS DIFFICULT to maintain good results as we had three University Ist VIII runners, and our next best performer was not in the University's top 40. Consequently, when R. W. Harvey and M. L. Statham were competing for the University and when P. H. Blair was hit by appendicitis, we were only able to shine on a few occasions.

We won against Oxford colleges, but lost to Reading, Bristol and Southampton Universities. In cuppers, without Blair, our best runner, we came fourth.

HILARY TERM This was a more successful term and we performed creditably in the three main events-the Hall Road Relay, the Hyde Park Road Relay and the Culham Road Relay.

We achieved third place in the Hall Road Relay out of 22 teams from Oxford and Cambridge, being beaten by Queen's and Trinity (Cantab.).

At Hyde Park, with a weakened team, we were 35th out of 77 teams.

At Culham the season ended on a note of glory when we finished 3rd out of 60 teams, and Blair ran the second fastest lap of the race.

We would like fo congratulate R. W. Harvey and M. L. Statham on their half-blues and Harvey on his election as Captain of the University Cross-Country Club. M. L. Statham has been elected Captain of the Hall club for next season. Hall colours were awarded G.R.W. to M . 0. C. Joy. 56

THE SQUASH RACKETS CLUB Captain: J. D. Gurney Secretary: R. C. S. CLARK

MICHAELMAS TERM WITH A NUMBER of keen and competent freshmen, in addition to almost all the previous year's players, it was easy to find teams throughout both terms and of almost sixty matches in the season only seven were lost. The League Team, despite a defeat in its first match against Corpus Christi, ran out easy winners of the First Division, including a defeat of Worcester en route.

HILARY TERM The Cuppers Team was the same as the League side of the previous term, and did very well to reach the final, going down 5-0 to a very strong Worcester team. S. R. G. White is to be congratulated on representing O.U. Squirrels S.R.C. against Cambridge Ganders and being elected Secretary of the Squirrels for the coming season.

The following elections for the coming season were made: Captain, R. C. S. Clark; Hon. Secretary, D. E. Timms.

R.C.S.C.

THE BADMINTON CLUB Captain: M. OAKLEY Secretary: J. DrxoN

MICHAELMAS TERM IN THE LEAGUE COMPETITION the Club played 7 matches, losing 4, drawing 2 and winning I. We finished 7th out of eight teams in Division I and were a little unlucky to be relegated.

HILARY TERM We met Wadham in the first round of Cuppers. Though all players had their best game of the season, the team was not strong enough. W adham, in Division I, went on to beat several teams.

A friendly game, no less hard fought, was held against the 0.U.L.B.C. Though dazzled by the Teddy Tin.ling outfits of the ladies, the Hall managed to salvage an honourable draw.

The regular team for League and Cuppers matches was: C. James and M. Oakley, M . Voisey and J. Dixon. Colours were awarded to C . James and M. Voisey and re-awards to M. Oakley and J. Dixon.

THE SWIMMING CLUB Captain: G. B.

KERR

in the Club's calendar of national importance was the traditional race on the Isis from O.U.B.C. to Donnington Bridge, on a sunny Jtme afternoon. There was a record entry of thirteen, including a major portion of the Boat Club.

All the entrants finished, most of them swimming all the way.

Three members of the Rugger team were seen towing a rowing boat containing two young ladies towards the finishing post. These swimmers were last....

The Dean photographed the swimmers before the start, started the race, and followed it at a safe distance in a motor launch. He presented the Farrand Cup to G. B. Kerr, and the tankard for second place to J. F. Adey.

G. B. Kerr has been awarded a half-blue for water-polo. F. Robinson has been appointed Captain for the coming season.

G.B.K. THE ONLY EVENT

THE TABLE TENNIS CLUB Captain: P. C.

SIMPSON

Secretary: R. L. E.

COLLINGS

THE HALL team was in the First Division for the 1961-62 season.

The captain, P. C. Simpson, was joined in this year's first pair by R. L. E. Collings, secretary of the club, and played together in every league match of the season. The other two places were filled by G. C. Warner and two freshmen, G. W. Cleaver and B. A. Hardcastle. We hoped to consolidate our newly gained position in the first division. In fact we did much better than we hoped, finishing a very creditable fourth.

The first pair compared very favourably with some of the best players in the league when they hit peak form, but sometimes had to depend on the second pair to make up for their temporary loss of form, which they generally succeeded in doing. In the Cuppers competition we were unfortunate in the draw. In the first round we beat Regent's Park College 5-4 but in the next round we lost to St. Peter' s College. St. Peter' s went on to reach the final of the competition.

G. C. Warner was awarded his table.:..tennis colours. The officials for next season are R. L. E. Collings, Captain and G. W. Cleaver, Secretary.

THE GOLF CLUB Captain: D. H. Secretary: D. M.

SELLAR

BOLTON

MICHAELMAS TERM A SIZEABLE INTAKE of freshmen golfers this year has proved an invaluable asset to the club. P. Hulmes in particular has done much to keep the Hall flag flying in University golfing circles by holding a regular place in The Divots.

HILARY TERM Golf Cuppers was disappointing. The competition is worked on the basis of the aggregate of holes won or lost by each of the four members of the team, and in the second round against Corpus II, though three men collected a total of ten holes up, the fourth man finished ten holes down, and in the play-off, which was over one hole, we lost one down since the fourth man had to concede the hole because of injury.

TRINITY TERM Our usual matches were played this term, both against St. John's, Cambridge, and against the Ladies' Clubs. St. John's beat us at Huntercombe 6 :2, but we took our revenge at the Gogs in seventh week by beating St. John's st-2t. As usual we were hard pressed by the ladies, but had our first victory over them for two years when we beat Temple Ladies by si:3t.

D.M.B.

THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY SUMMER PRODUCTION

w AS BY COMMON CONSENT a brilliant production of an undeservedly little-known play and must be judged by the highest standards. 'A Month in the Cow1try', for all its fascinating qualities, is nevertheless a play with obvious defects, not all of which could be THIS

59

concealed by the production, however good. The ending leaves us unsure whether there is any point in it or whether the point is uncertainty; the several soliloquies set insuperable problems because we either know what the soliloquist feels before he speaks or his reactions are so conventional as to make their expression superfluous; certain crude devices such as the kite and the raspberry bush with its heavy symbolism cannot easily be successful. And the audience, through sad but natural inadequacies, is somewhat jaded when the denoument begins after some two and a half hours.

The excellence of this production came from consistently fine acting and a sensitive overall conception by the producer, Michael Rudman. The mood of the humorous constantly mixed with something more than humorous was rightly conveyed from the start, partly by the set itself, and by the trivial game of cards on one side of the stage and an intricate circular dialogue between Rakitin (James Smith) and Natalya Petrovna (Louise Black) on the other.

Rakitin' s performance was superb and seemingly effortless, suggesting a character who is so mysterious that at times he mystifies himselÂŁ Natalya successfully conveyed the idea of a woman prone to mystify, to control and arrange things, drawn desperately into the responsibilities of a complex relationship, though it might be said that she was not always able to express fully the emotional climaxes of the part.

Vera Alexandrovna (Annabel Leventon), whose simple and genuine but uncomprehended emotions are ruined by the complexities of the relationships of her guardian, her tutor and Rakitin was superbly realised. The ruthless doctor Shpigelsky (David Aukin) was a character of admirable resource and mobility, though he seemed at times to be in need of a more thoughtful and machinatory turn of mind. This was perhaps because he relied on a jerky gesture rather than on variety of tone and expression. This provided the hilarious Bolshintsov (Terry Jones) w ith an amusing climax when he repeats the doctor's matrimonial advice with a delightful parody of the doctor's gestures. Lizaveta Bogdanovna (Eiluned Jones), the lady-companion of grandmother Anna Semyonovna, starred in the farce with Shpigelsky, making a palpable hit with her snufftaking and being delightfully coy in the summerhouse beforehand.

It is perhaps unfortunate that the plot lays such stress on the character of the young tutor Beliayev (Dick Celeste) whose position is more complex than he is himselÂŁ This slight strain in the action was not improved by his being played in a sports-coat-and-flannels garb nor by his American accent, forcing him into a prominence which neither the character in the play nor the actor could well exploit. Rakitin's aspersions on Beliayev's (French) accent brought one of the biggest laughs of the evening.

60

The minor characters were without exception well done, whether it was the German Schaaf's (Roger Popplestone) wonderfully heavy intonation, Katya's (Lesley Neill) .unwillingness to respond too readily to her seducer, or the hideous leer with which Bolshintsov favoured his dubiously chosen mate. The manservant (John Davie) put in some amusing appearances, whatever one's objections to the superfluous sub-plot as a whole. Semyovna (Margaret Kennedy) well supplemented Schaaf in the card-game scene and assumed full stature in her acid remarks to Rakitin when he has finally decided to leave her son's house. The performance of Natalya's husband Arkady (Graham Morris) was a solid one and, if his final outburst of baffiement was mildly histrionic, it is hard to see how else he is to be conceived to fit into so curious an ending.

The set was a tasteful and simple one in the house, though the double doors sometimes seemed to give some trouble in operation.

The garden was beautifully illuminated and the sound effects of a higher quality than is common in college productions. In the garden scene one felt a deeper stage would have been an advantage, though this was presumably due to some technical difficulty whereby the room-set had to be left assembled behind the Garden backcloth.

All in all, this was an exceedingly fine production and a moving performance. It should be added that the ambitiousness of the John Oldham Society in mounting a production of a long and, in this country, not well-known play, in rivalry with the O.U.D.S. major production of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' was commendable, and fully justified itself in its own standard of achievement and the crowded audiences it drew to the Playhouse.

E.P.S.

THE AULARIAN BOOKSHELF THE FOLLOWING PUBLICATIONS by members of the Hall have come to our notice. We would be glad to have news of any such publications for inclusion in this article. We thank all Aularians who sent us copies of their works which we are especially glad to receive, and have arranged for them to be placed on the Aularian shelves in the Old Library where we are building up a collection of books by Aularians past and present.

THE ENDO-y;MENT FUND DURING THE PAST YEAR the appeal for the Endowment Fund has continued to make steady, if somewhat tmspectacular progress.

Gifts, Deeds of Covenant or Banker's Orders have been received from some new subscribers. By 3l July, when the Hall books were closed, the total receipts for the financial year, including tax recovered, amounted to £ 796 l4s. 8d. As the Fund stood at £12,666 8s. 4d. at the end of the previous financial year, this means that it has now reached the grand total of £13,463 3s. od.

Below is attached a list of subscribers whose subscriptions or gifts had been paid into Lloyds Bank Ltd., Oxford, by 3l July. An asterisk against a name indicates that the subscriber has paid by Banker's Order, and a dagger that he has made a single gift-in several cases a gift annually repeated; all the remainder have completed Deeds of Covenant. It is hoped that if any subscriber's name has by oversight been omitted, he will at once communicate with the Bursary Clerk.

Needless to say, the gratitude of the Hall goes out in fullest measure to all who have so generously contributed.

As readers will appreciate, the fund-raising effort of the Hall for the next few years will be mainly concentrated on the New Buildings Fund, about which a note appears at the beginning of this issue.

It is therefore earnestly hoped that old members who desire either 63

to begin making a contribution to the Hall, or to renew a previous one, will give priority for the next few years to this new Fund. The Endowment Fund, however, will remain the permanent Fund for giving support to the financial position of the Hall. It is largely with the help of the Endowment Fund that the extensive purchases of sites have been carried out in the past few years, and subscribers to it may rest assured that during the next half-dozen years the income of the Endowment Fund, along with the New Building Fund, will go towards the realization of the Hall's large building projects.
