THORP,

Assistant Editor

DE PERSONIS ET REBUS AULARIBUS THE -PRINCIPAL congratulates the Principal on the publication of The Athanasian Creed (A. and C. Black), being the course of Paddock Lectures which he delivered at The General Theological Seminary, New York, in March 1963 . Dr. Kelly again visited the United States this year, preaching in St. Thomas', Fifth Avenue, New York, .in Holy Week, giving the Three Hours addresses and the Easter sermons at St. James', Baton Rouge, La., and delivering the Hale Memorial Sermon-Lecture at Seabury-Western Theological Seminary, Evanston. At the President's invitation he lectured to the Faculty of the Princeton Theological Seminary. In the course of the year he also preached at The King's School, Canterbury and at Charterhouse, preached the Tindall Memorial Sermon on 23 April for the Armourers and Brasiers' Company, and distributed the prizes at Ipswich School. Early this year the Archbishop of Canterbury invited the Principal to become Chairman of the newly formed Commission on Relations with the Roman Catholic Church. In this co1mection Dr. Kelly gave, by invitation, a lecture on the background and prospective work of the Commission at Blackfriars, Oxford, on 7 March (the feast of St. Thomas Aquinas), and also acted as chairman of a conference of Anglican and Roman Catholic theologians held in The Queen's College in July. THE MAGAZINE

I


THE VICE-PRINCIPAL DR. G. D. RAMSAY, who in date of appointment is senior Fellow, has been Vice-Principal since l April 1961, when he succeeded Dr. (now Professor) H. M. N. H. Irving. It was agreed at that time that the appointment should be for four years, and that the VicePrincipalship should not be restricted to the senior Fellow but should rotate among members of the Governing Body. As he will be absent on study leave for the academic year 1964-5, Dr. Ramsay has resigned his tenure of the office, which would in any case have terminated at the end of March next year, and the Governing Body has elected Dr. R. Fargher as Vice-Principal for four years from l August. The Magazine expresses its appreciation to Dr. Ramsay of the dignified and punctilious manner in which he has maintained the traditions of this ancient office, and offers to Dr. Fargher its congratulations and good wishes.

THE FELLOWS congratulates the Vice-Principal (Dr. G. D. Ramsay) on being awarded a grant by the Levcrhulme Trustees to meet the expenses of a year's study leave during 1964-5. The Senior Tutor (Mr. C. W. F. R. Gullick) deserves congratulation on the publication of the very remarkable The Atlas ofBritain (0. U .P.) , of which he is one of the editors; he has been responsible for the section on communications, and for advice on economic aspects generally. Mr. Gullick was last year appointed a governor of Clayesmore School, and this year has examined in the Final Honour School of Geography. His term of office as Secretary of the Senior Tutors' Committee has ended, but he remains on the standing committee. The Dean (Rev. E. G. Midgley) has been elected chairman of the English Faculty. He has acted as Moderator in the Preliminary Examination in English, has preached at Cheltenham College, St. Edward's School and Giggleswick School, and has once again taken part in an Oxford-Borstal camp. Dr. D. C. M. Yardley delivered a paper on 'The British Constitution and the Rule of Law' at a joint meeting of the German and British sections of the International Commission of Jurists held at Bad Neuenahr, Germany, in September 1963. He has once again examined for the Ceylon Public Service examination. Dr. G. W. Series spent Hilary Term at the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, University of Colorado. In September last year he was present at the Inauguration of the Academic Year at the University of Warsaw. Dr. R. B. Mitchell examined this summer in the Final Honour School of English Language and Literature. He has been appointed University Lecturer in English Language. Professor Hume-Rot:hery gave the THE MAGAZINE

2


introductory lecture to the Conference on 'The Electronic Structure of Alloys' held in Sheffield in September 1963. Mr. R. B. Pugh spent the winter and spring at the Institute for Advanced Studies, Princeton, engaged in historical research. Mr. Gosling is to be congratulated on being invited to be Barclay Acheson Professor at Macalester College, Minnesota, during the academic year 1964-5. Dr. P. J. C. Rossotti has examined in the Final Honour School of Chemistry, and in the Gibbs Scholarship in Chemistry; he has also lectured at the University of Wales (Aberystwyth). Dr. D. I. Scargill has been appointed University Lecturer in Geography; he is to be congratulated on his marriage in August to Miss Mary Branch. Mr. Swann visited the Far East (Japan, Korea, Hong-Kong, Formosa, Cambodia, and Siam) last winter on a study tour. GEORGE ROLLASON ALLEN THE MAGAZINE LEARNS with much regret of Mr. G. R. Allen's resignation and departure from the Hall this summer, but congratulates him on what it understands to be a highly responsible appointment with the important American firm of W. R. Grace. Mr. Allen, who has also been University Lecturer in Agricultural Economics, joined the Hall as Lecturer in Economics in 1950 and was promoted Fellow and Tutor in 1956. Throughout all these years he has rendered the Hall splendid service for which it is profoundly grateful. A keen and stimulating tutor, he has always shown a concern for his pupils' general welfare; and his special knowledge and radical freshness of approach have made his counsel particularly valuable on the Governing Body. In moving from the academic to the business world Mr. AHen is embarking on a venture in which his many friends, old and young, will wish him, and along with him his wife and family, every success and happiness. W. R. Grace is one of the hundred largest corporations in the U.S.A., a leading producer of agricultural and industrial chemicals, with other activities including shipping, sugar; cement and paper manufacturing, and food. With his specialized studies in several of these departments, Mr. Allen should be able to make an important contribution to it, and one of his major responsibilities will be in the field of planning and reviewing the firm's subsequent development. His office will be in New York 5, at 7 Hanover Square-a block o:ffWall Street. DR. A. B. EMDEN will join in offering Dr. Emden. a double meed of congratulation. First, the appearance last autumn of his A Biographical Register of the University of Cambridge to 1500

A ULARIANS EVERYWHERE

3


(C.U.P.) marks an outstanding contribution to the history ofEnglish, indeed European, universities. Following the pattern of his Oxford Biographical Register, it presents the sister University, for the first time and in masterly detail, with as complete a survey of its medieval magistri as the evidence available makes possible. Secondly, the University of Cambridge expressed its grateful recognition of Dr. Emden' s achievement in the most splendid fashion by bestowing on him the degree of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa) at the special degree ceremony held in the Senate House on l l June. In the Latin speech introducing him the Public Orator not only expatiated on Dr. Emden's pioneer work on the history of medieval universities and on such personal characteristics as his love of flowers and birds, but also stressed his twenty-two years' Principalship of the Hall, using words(' cuius vero quasi alter conditor exstabat') which its members will gratefully echo. BISHOP ALLEN: A MEMORIAL of St. Birinus, the seventh-century first Bishop of Dorchester, near Oxford, also known as the Apostle of the West Saxons, was dedicated in Dorchester Abbey by the Bishop of Oxford on Saturday 20 June. Most fittingly, the restoration was carried out in memory of the late Gerald Burton Allen, D.D. , Principal of the Hall 1922-8, who was the first Bishop of Dorchester in modern times, the title having been extinct from rn86 w1til it was revived in 1939 for one of the suffragans of the Bishop of Oxford. Since the occasion took the form of a diocesan pilgrimage, a very large company assembled in the church, the main body walking through the town in procession with banners. Mrs. Allen, the late Bishop's stepmother, was present, and the Hall was represented by both Dr. A. B . Emden and the Principal as well as by several Aularians. THE RESTORED SHRINE

A JAPANESE OCCASION which was equally historic and felicitous took place in Tokyo on 9 October last year. At the request of the Govenli!1g Body Mr. P. C. Swann, Keeper of the Department of Eastern Art and Professorial Fellow, who happened to be visiting the Japanese capital for purposes of study, formally admitted Mr. Sadao Iguchi to the Honorary Fellowship to which he was elected in Trinity Term, 1963. In the unavoidable absence of the Ambassador the ceremony was carried out in the house of Mr. Dudley Clarke, Charge d' Affaires, and followed the traditional form, Mr. Swann taking Mr. Iguchi by the hand and pronouncing the formula of admission in impeccable Latin supplied by the Principal (whose A FUNCTION

prerogative it is normally to admit new Fellows). A specially bound volume containing the Statutes of the Hall had been prepared in advance, and Mr. Swann handed this to Mr. Iguchi. Two photographs of the scene are published in this issue. NEW BUILDINGS: A STEP FORWARD AS THE MAGAZINE GOES TO PRESS, the encouraging news has become available that a useful step forward has been taken with the plans for the development of the Forum site. Until recently progress was frustratingly held up, first because the original designs for a lofty building were thwarted by the unexpected imposition of a height limit by the City Council, and later because the College (as the Principal explained at the London Dinner in January and again at the Reunion) found itself reluctantly obliged to part company with its architect. The new architects engaged are Kenneth Stevens and Associates, the Oxford firm which has looked after the Hall's buildings for many years and which in fact, under an earlier name, was responsible for designing the Canterbury Building. Since they took over, the situation has dramatically changed and they have prepared, with admirable speed and efficiency, plans which have impressed the Governing Body as at once attractive and workmanlike, and which provide all the accommodation stipulated. Subject to the discussion of points of detail, the Governing Body has approved a model based on the plans, and the next step will be the submission of this to the planning authorities for their approval. If this is obtained, a brochure containing illustrations of the plans and explaining what is involved in them will be circulated to all Aularians, probably in the early part of next year, and it is hoped that this, and the promise of the early commencement of demolitions and building operations, will stimulate interest in the Appeal. NEW FELLOWSHIPS THREE NEW FELLOWSHIPS have been created in the past year. In Trinity Term John Paul Delacour Dunbabin, M.A., who was appointed to a Lecturership last summer (particulars of his career were given in last year's Magazine), was elected to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Politics and Modern History. In Hilary Term the Governing Body elected Jeffery Hackney, B.A., Honorary Scholar of W adham College, to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Jurisprudence. Mr. Hackney obtained a First Class in the Final Honour School of Jurisprudence last summer; this year he obtained a First Class in the examinations for the B.C.L., and was also awarded the great distinction of the Vinerian Scholarship. In 5


addition, through the imaginative generosity of the Pressed Steel Co. Ltd., the British Motor Corporation, and S. Smiths & Son (England) Ltd. (to which the Hall is deeply grateful), a Senior Research Fellowship in Industrial Relations has been established at the Hall for seven years; the Governing Body has appointed Arthur Ivor Marsh, M.A., formerly of the Extra-mural Delegacy and an acknowledged expert in the delicate field of ¡industrial relations, to be its first holder. The Magazine extends a warm welcome to all three new Fellows, and Aularians will note with satisfaction that the Hall now has two Fellowships in Law. ECONOMICS TEACHING THE HALL has been fortunate in the arrangements it has been able to make for the teaching of Economics during the next three years, following the resignation of Mr. G. R. Allen. Mr. R. G. Smethurst, B.A., formerly of Worcester College and at present Student at Nuffield College, who obtained a First Class in P.P.E. in 1963, has been appointed Lecturer in Economics for the academic year 1964-5. As from the end of Trinity Term 1965, when his Studentship at Nuffield comes to an end, the Governing Body has pre-elected him to a Claude Jenkins Research Fellowship for a period of two years in the first instance. A MEMORIAL TO ST. EDMUND s u ND A Y 7 Ju NE was a noteworthy day for Abingdon-on-Thames and for all who respect the name of St. Edmund. After morning service a tablet in memory of the Abingdon scholar who was Oxford's first recorded Doctor of Divinity, and also its first Archbishop of Canterbury, was unveiled and dedicated on the west wall of the parish church of St. Nicholas. Earlier in the service a sermon had been preached by the Ven. C. A. Plaxton, Archdeacon of Wiltshire, himself both an Aularian and an authority on St. Edmund; and the tablet, provided by the Friends of Abingdon, was unveiled by Mr. A. L. Norrington, President of Trinity College (which is patron of the living). The Bishop of Oxford performed the act of dedication. In the unavoidable absence of the Principal the Hall was represented by Dr. D. C. M. Yardley, senior Law Fellow; Dr. A. B. Emden was also present. The lessons had been read by Canon R. C. Dawson, Treasurer of Salisbury Cathedral (an office held by St. Edmtmd after his departure from Oxford) and the Revd. Dr. A. M. Farrer, Warden of Keble College and sometime Chaplain of the Hall. The Mayor and Corporation of Ab¾igdon attended, as did a large congregation, and a reception was later held in the house of Mrs. Liversidge, to whose initiative and efforts the 6

erection of the memorial was largely due. In his sermon Archdeacon Plaxton emphasised that the occasion was no mere commemoration of the past, for at every turn of his life St. Edmund had a message for present-day English society. PUBLIC HONOURS IT IS PLEASANT TO RECORD that Mr. N. R. Wylie, Q.C., who entered the HaD after serving as a Naval officer in 1946, was appointed Solicitor General for Scotland in April. After leaving Oxford, Mr. Wylie continued bis studies at the Universities of Glasgow and Edinburgh, and in 1952 was admitted to the Faculty of Advocates. He has practised at the Scottish bar ever since, and has also lectured in Law at Edinburgh University. At the time of going to press he was Unionist candidate for the Pentlands division of Edinburgh. Aularians will also have noticed with great satisfaction that Mr. H. C. Shearman (matric. 1919) was in April chosen as first Chairman of the new Greater London Council. Mr. Shearman is of course not unversed in the government of London, having served for many years on the London County Council, which is now giving place to the G.LC., and having recently been its Chairman; he was also a member of the Robbins Committee. By a happy coincidence the photographs of Mr. Wylie and Mr. Shearman both appeared in The Times on 28 April. A DINNER WITH FRIENDS ONE OF THE HALL'S most recently founded societies is the dining club known as the 'Amici Aulae Sancti Edmundi'. The foundation members hail mainly, though by no means exclusively, from overseas (South Africa, Malta, the United States of America, Canada, etc.), and they have bound themselves throughout their lives to devote their efforts to the support and welfare of the Hall. The Visitor dined with the Amici on Friday 6 March, as their guest and enjoyed what he described as 'a Lucullan banquet'. In spite of his recent illness he was in good form and cheerful spirits, and made an excellent speech. A photograph taken in the course of the dinner, which was held in the Emden Room, appears in this issue of the Magazine. As a token of their resolve to help the Hall to the best of their ability, the Amici present at the dinner presented the Principal with the sum of ÂŁ66 to purchase books for the Library. AN INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY THE HALL HAS AL w A YS GIVEN

a warm welcome to overseas members, and it is therefore gratifying to record that its international flavour has been richer and more variegated during the 7


past year than ever before in its history. Undergraduate or postgraduate students hailing from the following countries have been in residence: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Iceland, India, Italy, Kenya, Lebanon, Malta, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, N. Rhodesia, S. Rhodesia, South Africa, Turkey, and the United States of America. FONTIS REPARATIO but graceful piece of restoration and embellishment that has been carried out in the past year is the re-incising of the inscription on the well and its transference to a less vulnerable position. Since it was constructed in 1927 the well-head has become, to a degree that could not then have been foreseen, a place where people sit and talk, eat their lunches, drink their beer (or champagne after Schools), and pose for photographs. As a result the glowing words of Isaiah xii.3 ('You shall draw water with joy from the Saviour's wells'), which are recorded as having been among the last uttered by St. Edmund on his death-bed, had become almost illegible. Now they have been removed altogether from the top of the well-head, which has been rubbed smooth, and have been re-cut, in splendid Roman capitals picked out with gold leaf, round its inside wall. A MINOR

THE BEST THANKS

GIFTS of the Hall are due to the following for gifts

TRAVEL GRANTS ONCE AGAIN, as a result of the Aularian Association's generous gift of £60, the money available for distribution from the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund was more than double its income from investments. Grants of between £5 and £20 were accordingly made in Trinity Term to the following undergraduates for trips planned for the Long Vacation: D. J. Cox (O.U. Exploration Club expedition to southern Turkey); J. Brockbank (visit to the U.S.A. to study the conditions of negro life in the southern states and in Harlem); M. Buckley and R. Daugherty (land survey in Greece under the auspices of the North Euboea Foundation); J. Allan (mountaineering in the Alps); A. Daulton (bird study in Devon) ; J. Still (visit to Syria and Israel, with work on a kibbutz); R. H. Smith (motor bicycle trip to Istanbul); C. R. Holdsworth (motoring and camping in Yugoslavia); J. N. Brown, M. D. Buttler, A. D. Cowan and R. Holland (car trip to Istanbul and other places). FRANCIS BENNION PRIZES TWO PRIZES, one of £20 and the other of £10, were offered for the best essays on 'The Reform of the Common Law'. Awards were made in Michaelmas Term, the first prize going to R. H. Smith, and the second prize being divided ·between C. L. Brown and S. J. Burnton.

Hodson. THE SUMMER DANCE was held once again in the Forum-despite the Magazine's prophecy of the year before, and the year before!and in the Dining Hall and in the Front Quadrangle. The experiment of last year was repeated in the awning which covered most of the Front Quadrangle, although we were never threatened with the rain which had been the terror of last year's organisers. Instead the evening turned very cold, too cold for comfortable sitting out but not too cold for the great crowd dancing to a variety of bands, to Norman Dovey in the Forum-appearing this year in a hall decked out as a big top, complete with striped roof and trapezes-to a steel band and a Liverpool rock-group, the Pathfinders, in the Front Quadrangle, or to the music of the Conrad Hyman quartet in the Dining Hall. Later Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames kept the party going loud and clear until long after the scheduled closing time. This must have been one of the most successful Hall dances ever, to judge by the crowds and the gaiety of the evening, and the Magazine would like to congratulate all those who helped to organise it. THE SUMMER DANCE

LONDON DINNER, 1964 SUR VEYING, on 14 January, a body of Aularians replete with smoked trout and Simpson's roast saddle of lamb, Mr. John Clarke was able to announce with characteristic relish, in proposing the toast 'Floreat Aula', that the London Dinner had at last registered the 'ton-up', a statement that may be verified from the subscribed list of those attending. After welcoming the Principal and the Fellows present, the Chairman regretted to have to bemoan yet again the absence of Mr. A. B. Emden, who, although he had now decided that his age entitled him to be entirely reckless, had wisely decided that the onset of a¡chill should keep him at his fireside. Promising us that 'financial and commercial' considerations would be the province of the Principal later, . Mr. Clarke turned IO


to expressing his serious concern over the disastrous last five years at Twickenham (surely because an insufficient number of Aularians had appeared with the dark blues) and the passing of 'executive authority' from the Vice-Principal to the Dean-a step Mr. Clarke felt to be a 'retrograde advance'. Our Chairman concluded by affirming that he came with a great love of the Hall and the affinity and brotherliness it engendered -the key to the small Oxford College. The Hall would, he hoped, remain small in this sense, however large it grew. The Principal rose to reply, glancing keenly yet benevolently over half-spectacles in the fashion of the (current) Prime Minister. After a passing reference to the physique that Mr. Clarke at one time revealed, and to the latter's prowess with a golf club, the Principal expressed in his turn his regret at the absence of Mr. Emden (who having dealt with Oxford was now writing up the medieval records of Cambridge) and obtained by acclamation the good wishes of those present, which he undertook to convey. The Principal remarked on the Hall's successes in the field of sport-particularly in hockey and rowing fours, and its representation in University teams and the practice boat. The President of 0. U.D.S. was, moreover, a Hall man, and was responsible for the major production in Hilary Term. In spite of what published figures might have led Aularians to think, the Hall had had a considerable success in Schools: Hall men did not on the whole, however, pursue the 'arid eminence' of the top flights of academic distinction. After reporting on progress with the building scheme (about which more will no doubt appear else where in this issue), the Principal referred to the Hall passing with holds barred (or was it hatches battened) between the Scylla and Charybdis of Robbins and Report. He feared that too much pressure to improve the intellectual side might militate against the true function of a great University which was to bring together people of varied interests and talents. He hoped that the Hall, at least, would continue in this tradition and contribute to the larger side of life. He felt sure that the colleges which in future would contribute most to the life of the country would be those producing excellence in every sphere and not merely in one. Thanks were expressed to Mr. Neville Williams for the work he had done, as Secretary to the Dinner Committee, in making the arrangements. Among those present were: The Principal, the Reverend J. S. Brewis, Professor H. J. Hunt, Mr. C. F. W.R. Gullick, the Reverend E. G. Midgley. II

The Annual General Meeting of the Association was held in the Emden Room after Chapel. The Treasurer read the accounts (printed at the end of the Magazine) . These were approved. The President announced that the Executive Committee had allocated £250 for the Magazine and an additional £150 for the Directory. £400 had been given to the Scholarship Fund; £100 to the Sports Grant Fund; £60 for travel grants and £50 to the library. The Association had also agreed to pay up to £100 for a piece of plate to commemorate the sporting achievements of the year.

The retiring members of the Executive Committee, the Ven. F. McGowan, J. ]. E. Walkinton and D. K. Daniels were re-elected. The Hon. Treasurer and the Hon. Secretary were re-elected. It was agreed to hold the next Reunion on Saturday 26 June 1965. At the Reunion Dinner the toast of Floreat Aula was proposed by the Principal. It was, he said, the largest Reunion that had ever taken place. He regretted that Mr. Hamerton, who matriculated in 1892, did not feel able to come, but he had sent his good wishes. Mr. Emden was another absentee whom all would miss. After receiving an honorary degree from Cambridge, he was relaxing in Cornwall, cataloguing the plant life of the Lizard. The year had been reasonably successful. Six Firsts had been gained and in the sporting world all the major cups had been won, except tennis, and of course the Hall was Head of the River in both torpids and eights. The Hall theatrical productions continued to be of outstanding merit. Luther had been judged by- professional standards. Musical ability had been demonstrated in a concert in which many of the pieces had been composed by Hall men. They were trying to cultivate the many arts and crafts which made up university life at its fullest and best. The Appeal has to some extent been held up owing to difficulties about the plans. But more money was needed. Only about onesixth of the members of the Hall had contributed. A much larger proportion than this was necessary if a successful appeal was to be made to the outside world. But, however inclement the financial climate might seem, the great tradition of the Hall was being and would be carried on. L.W.H. SCHOLARSHIP ELECTIONS AND EXAMINATIONS THE FOLLOWING ELECTIONS

beginning 30 November. The three groups into which all the men's colleges have been divided will examine at the same time-and at the same time as Cambridge-and candidates will be considered first by the colleges in their chosen group and then any narrowly rejected candidates will be considered again in January by means of a pool operated not only between the groups in Oxford but between O xford and Cambridge.

OBITUARIES Major General Alan Bruce Blaxland, C.B., O.B.E., B.A., Indian Army retired, died at the Victoria Hospital, Deal, on 2 September 1963, aged 70. After being at school at Shrewsbury, he entered the Hall in l9lI. After taking his degree in 1914 he was commissioned into the Indian Army and during W odd War I served in France and Flanders, South Persia and the West Persian Gulf; he was mentioned in dispatches. Between the wars he served in Waziristan and in the North Frontier, and was military adviser to the Central India States Forces. At the outbreak of W odd War II he was in command of 4/7 Rajput Regiment. He became second in command at Mersa Matruh in the Western Desert in 1940, and in 1941-2 he commanded the 27th Indian Infantry in Iraq and Persia. He also commanded the loth Indian Infantry Division in the Western Desert and Cyprus, and the 25th Corps in Cyprus. He was invalided back to India in 1943, and for the next three years was G.O.C. Lahore. He was made O.B.E. in 1926 and C.B. in 1945¡ After retirement he settled at Deal, and was for many years a keen and active member of the Executive Committee of the Aularian Association. Newton Edward Ensign, M.A., died on 19 March 1963. Born on 3 June 1882, he attended Altamont High School from 1896 to 1900, and McKendree College, Illinois, from 1901 to 1905. On graduating A.B. at the latter institution, he was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship and entered the Hall in 1905. He remained in residence until 1908, reading for honours in Mathematics and taking his B.A. in 1908 and his M.A. in 1932¡ From 1908 to 1910 he was a student at the University of Illinois and received his B.S. (Civil Engineering) in l9lI. From 1910 to 1950 he taught at the University of Illinois as Instructor, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and in 1945 Professor in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. He was nominated Professor Emeritus in 1952. In 1908 he married Flossie Bundy, and had two sons. He published, in collaboration with F. B. Seely, Analytical Mechanics for Engineers. 39


Mostyn Yanto ffrench-Williams died suddenly at Fowey, Cornwall, on I I November 1963 at the age of 49 and was cremated at Truro on 16 November. While a schoolboy at St. Paul's, he already showed his remarkable gifts as an athlete and swimmer, and represented Great Britain at the Olympic Games at Los Angeles in 1932, finishing third in the 100 metres. Entering the Hall in 1933, he was awarded his Blue for swimming in his first term, and subsequently became Secretary and President of the O.U.S.C. He represented Oxford against Cambridge in 1934, 1935 and 1936, took part in the Empire Games at Wembley in 1934, and represented Great Britain at the Olympic Games in Berlin in 193 6. In 193 5-6 he had a successful term of office as President of the J.C.R. In 1936 he took his degree with honours in Physics and joined the Civil Service as a member of the Traffic Board at Scotland Yard. In 1939 he joined the R.N.V.R., and when the war came he entered the Navy as Ordinary Signalman, R.N.V.R.; he was commissioned Sub-lieutenant in 1940 and promoted Lieutenant in 1941. He served in H.M. Destroyer 'Whirlwind' from February to July 1940 on escort and anti-submarine duties off north-west Europe, including Narvik. 'Whirlwind' was torpedoed and sunk in the Atlantic in July 1940, and he was one of some 30 survivors out of a total complement of 130. He subsequently commanded M.L.s 221 and 297 engaged in operations in the Channel and off the coasts of Northern Europe, ending his war career in Denmark in 1945¡ After demobilization he returned for a short time to the Civil Service, but soon resigned and went into business on his own account. His death at such an early age is a great blow to his many friends. The Reverend Canon Thomas Gerald Le Mesurier, B.A., died at Ronde bosh, Cape Province, on 24 August 1963, at the age of 89. Educated at Hurstpierpoint, he entered the Hall in 1893, and thus was one of its very oldest members. He was in residence from Michaelmas Term 1893 until December 1896, and his memory was richly stored with anecdotes of Hall life in that often stormy period. A devoted son of Cuddesdon as well as the Hall, he was ordained by Bishop Edward King at Lincoln in 1890. After working at Grimsby and at Wolverton, Bucks, he went out to South Africa in 1910 as Chaplain of Robben Island, then a leper colony. The whole of his active ministry from this time was in Cape Province, most notably as Rector for 15 years of St. Saviour's, Claremont, where he was greatly loved and respected by his parishioners, coloured and European. He proved a remarkable pastor, with wide sympathies and many friends. His independence of mind and impatience with mere organization sometimes brought him into collision with dignitaries, ecclesiastical and civil, and he considered it a somewhat ironic judgment when he was made honorary Canon 40


of Cape Town Cathedral in 1930. Since his retirement in 1948 he came frequently to England, visiting members of his family and his numerous friends, and making a special point of staying in Oxford about the time of Eights Week. He was immensely fond of the Hall and an enthusiastic supporter of it in all its enterprises; two of his sons and one son-in-law followed in his steps as undergraduate members of it. In his long, full and active life he brought happiness to many people, and his wise counsel and kindly encouragement are much missed. Peter Clephan Palmer, C.B.E., B.A., died on 28 November 1963. Educated at St. Paul's, he was the son of E. Clephan Palmer, who was the Parliamentary correspondent of The Daily News and The News Chroncile and doyen of the Press Gallery of the House of Commons. He entered the Hall in 1931, was awarded his hockey colours, and took his degree in 1934 with Class II Honours in Modern Languages. He chose schoolmastering as his profession, and held appointments at Mill Hill, St. Lawrence, Ramsgate, and Merchant Taylors. He joined the Army immediately after the outbreak of war, and served in the Intelligence Corps, reaching the rank of Major. After demobilization he returned for a spell to Merchant Taylors, but in 1948 joined G.C.H.Q. In this sphere he did distinguished work and his service with the department took him to many parts of the world. From 1956 to 1959 he was stationed in Washington, and while there he was awarded the C.B.E. He became an Assistant Director of the Department in June 1960, and had he lived might well have attained higher promotion. His quiet friendliness and great sense of humour endeared him to a very wide circle of friends not only in this country but in the other parts of the world where his duties carried him. A memorial service was held for him in Cheltenham, and it is significant that the church was crowded for the occasion. The Reverend Eric Arthur Shattock, M.A., B.Litt., died in 1957¡ After going to school at Dulwich College, he spent three years in an insurance office, and came up to the Hall in 1897. He read for the Honour School of Modern History and graduated with Class II Honours in 1900. After training at Cuddesdon he was ordained deacon and priest at Winchester in 1906 and 1907 respectively. After serving curacies at St. Peter's, Bournemouth, St. Barnabas, Southfields, and Woodmansterne, he was appointed Diocesan Inspector of Schools for Southwark in 1912, being licensed to officiate at St. James', Coulsdon. From 1922 to 1939 he was Vicar of St. Mark, Woodcote, Purley, and in 1927 he submitted a thesis on 'The Relation between Morality and Religion in Primitive Society' to the Board of the Faculty of Theology; on the strength of it he was awarded the degree ofB.Litt. He was Vicar ofDormans41


land from 1939 to 1947, and after his retirement in the latter year went to live at Kingston St. Mary, Taunton, Somerset. The Reverend Reginald Shepheard, M.A., died at Grassington, near Skipton, on 7 August 1963 , aged 79. Born at Daventry, Northants, and educated at the Grammar School there, he entered the Hall in 1903 and read for honours in Modern History. A keen sportsman, he captained the Cricket and Football XI's and rowed in the boat. After a spell at Ely Theological College, he was made deacon in 1908 and priest in 1909 in London and served his first curacy at St. John's, Hammersmith. After three years as Chaplain to St. Paul's College, Burgh, he went out to Canada on the followup of the Archbishop's Mission and for a time was Priest-in-charge of St. George, British Columbia; On returning to Engl_and, he was successively curate of Muckton with Burwell and W almsgate and of Romaldkirk. From 1928 to 1933 he was Rector of Maidford and Vicar of Adstone, in Northants, and then moved to Yorkshire to be Vicar of Hartwith with Winsley (1933-8). After his retirement he lived for some years at Ripon, but latterly at Grassington. Maurice Patrie Vidal-Hall, B.A. , died at El Obeid, in the Sudan, on 5 February 1964. He came up to the Hall from Exeter School in 1930 and read Forestry, taking his degree in 1933¡ At the same time he proved a noteworthy sportsman, obtaining his colours for Hockey and winning the Matthews Cup for swimming. On going down he entered the service of the Forestry Commission, and in 1934 was appointed assistant manager of the Ecuador Land Co. hi 1937 he transferred to the Sudan Forestry Service, and spent the remainder of his life in that country. When he died, he was on a contract for the Sudan Government and was concerned with the development of gum arabic. The Reverend Father Arthur Edward Webb, B.A. , died on 27 May 1963. After going to school at Denstone, he entered the Hall in 1903 and took his degree with honours in Modern History in 1906. After being ordained to the ministry of the Church of England, he changed to R oman Catholicism and became a Roman Catholic priest. He worked for most of his ministry in the Roman Catholic diocese of Southwark, and after his retirement settled with the Little Company of Mary at St. Leonard's-on-Sea. David Russell White, M.A., died as a result of a tragic accident at Chilton Cantelo private school, near Yeovil, on 26 April 1964. The son and younger brother of Aularians, he came up to the Hall from Tonbridge School in 1952. A fine oarsman, he was awarded his colours for rowing, and rowed regularly in the First VIII. He read for the Honour School of Geography and took his degree in 1955¡ At that stage he felt called to the ministry of the Church, and after leaving the Hall went to Cuddesdon for training. He later 42


decided that his vocation did not lie, for the moment at any rate, in the ministry, and he turned to schoolmastering. In this capacity he held several appointments in preparatory schools, and for a time worked in a school in Canada. During these years he also showed distinct talent as a poet, and published several small volumes of poems which, often loose in rhythm and a little stereotyped in phrase, gave expression to his joy in nature and to his faith in his country and its institutions and in life itselÂŁ When he died, he was only 34 years of age.

NEW BUILDINGS FUND s 1 N c E 3 I Ju LY I 9 6 3 , when the first list of subscribers either by gift or under deed of covenant was printed in the Magazine, the Fund has been hanging fire in a rather disappointing way and only a trickle of new subscribers have come forward. Efforts are being made, by personal approaches on a local or regional basis, to press the claims of the Fund, on which the whole development of the Forum site depends, on the army of Aularians who have so far hesitated to contribute, and it is confidently hoped that there will be a keen revival of interest when, as will probably happen early next year, the plans at present in process of being worked out are made public.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE DEBATING SOCIETY THE SOCIETY maintained its high standard this year under the Presidencies of]. J. K. Taylor, A. Hughes and S. B. Duncan. The average attendance of the fortnightly meetings was 52, an improvement of IO on last year's figures. Outstanding attractions offered this year were: The Principal's opposing 'It's the Principle that counts'. The St. Hilda' s belles, Misses Kathy Villiers, Judith Okely and Chloe Stallibrass discussing 'Men are made of day and women make mugs of them'. Miss Anabel Leventon (St. Anne's) with D. Dodd debating the relative merits of Theatre and Cinema with M. Rudman and R. Oliver of the Hall. Other crowd-drawers proved to be three Union Presidents, the Hall's three kading wits, N. Pegram, S. Benson, I. R. K. Rae, and our friends from across the ocean, M. Neely, D. Keeler, P. Israelson and M. Hamilton. A.H.

THE ESSAY SOCIETY

MICHAELMAS TERM President: R. T. JACKSON NOT A VINTAGE TERM, I fear. Perhaps the most memorable event was the substitution of detergent for sugar by some undetected assassin. The essays? Mr. Inglis did the impossible and was tersely vague. That I remember. Mr. Jackson drooled, Mr. Allen worried about his future, Mr. Cooper rambled, Mr. Low encyclopaedified, Mr. Andrew Graham's essay on novel writing was the most interesting all-round contribution, for it attracted several lady guests as well as a good discussion. Someone else must have contributed but I cannot think whom. To him I must apologise: at least I cannot slander him. We did have two good meals. R.T.J.

HILARY TERM President: H. REDINGTON For the first meeting of term Mr. Hindle read an essay, over whose title there was some confusion, but which eventually turned out to be about sport. He was followed by Mr. Whitton whose 45


'Twinkle, twinkle, little star' had as its subject industrial disputes, and by Mr. Daniel on 'Men in armour'. Following these, Mr. Martin Smith shuddered to think, and Mr. Lynch and Mr. B. R.H. Hall considered respectively 'Transcendence' and 'Perception'. For the last meeting of term Mr. Redington wrote about 'England, their England'. H.R.

TRINITY TERM President:

MR. ALEXANDER

Mr. Alexander provided a complete and authoritative guide for the man about Bodley. Franco's character, war and civil record were reassessed by Mr. Morrow. At the port and dessert meeting Mr. Gorringe talked about 'Common Sense' and other things. Mr. Manners in 'A native son', discussed James Baldwin as a novelist and a civil rights leader. The Muse of the Theatre was pursued by Mr. Sandringham, while the Society tried to dispose of her. Mr. Griffiths worried about the evils of tourism and at the Dinner Meeting Mr. Christopher Graham worried about primitive man. C.F.G.

THE MUSIC SOCIETY President: J.

SHIPPEN

Secretary: J. Gourn has had a very successful year both on the choral and instrumental side, during which it has been able to stage four concerts. In the Michaelmas Term a concert was put on in the Hall, reflecting a fairly festive Christmas spirit, to try out new talent, in which both choir (men's voices) and instrumentalists took part. The Vaughan Williams 'Fantasia on Christmas Carols' reflected the seasonal atmosphere, and among the more unusual works performed were a witty Divertimento by the Oxford Professor of Music, J. A. Westrup, Debussy's 'Petite Suite' for four pianists, SaintSaens' 'Elephant' as a tuba solo, a self-composed piano Burlesque by David Bourne, and culminating in Malcolm Arnold's Toy Symphony, In the Hilary Term, with some recruiting from the women's colleges, a choral concert was held in St. Martin's, High Street, in which the Faure Requiem, together with two Britten canticles and Vaughan Williams' 'Lord, Thou hast been our refuge' were performed, with organ solos. This was so successful that it was repeated at St. John's, Cowley, at the beginning of Trinity Term. THE SOCIETY

46


The arumal summer concert in the quadrangle in Eights Week was a great success, and further had the distinction of including four works by Hall composers: Brian Bailey, David Bourne, John Gould and Colin Johnson. Saint-Saens' 'Carnival of Animals' and Borodin's 'Polovtsian Dances' were the two 'classical' items. The weather was fine, despite ominous mutterings about thunder by the Met. Office, and it was a most enjoyable occasion. The year has seen the formation and gradual development of a reasonably competent choir, and the summer concert saw the debut of a small orchestra with a minimum of players (only three) from outside the Hall. It is hoped that with the influx of next year's freshmen it will be possible to form an orchestra capable of playing with the choir in substantial choral works. J.D.S., A.J.G.

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: E. J. M. WILLIAMS Secretary: J. HILL

MICHAELMAS TERM AFTER THE USUAL Freshmen's meeting in October, the S(JCiety presented three mediaeval sessions. J. M. W allace-Hadrill of Merton read a paper on 'Charlemagne and England' and outlined the contacts between the Mercian kings and the continent in the eighth century. R. M. Jeffs of Trinity investigated 'The Gentry between 1400 and 1700' and provided an element of controversy in this difficult subject. C. J. Morris of Pembroke brought us firmly back into the Middle Ages with a paper on 'Christianity and Christendom' in the twelfth century.

HILARY TERM Two speakers from All Souls talked at meetings this term. Dr. Hoskins spoke on 'Famine and disease in Tudor England' an unusual and enlightening approach to economic history, and Professor Cribbs sparu1ed 1939-45 with 'The strategic bombing of Germany'. The only member to read a paper this term was C. J. Tromans, who traced the connection between 'Wesleyans and Teetotallers'.

TRINITY TERM There were no meetings this term. The officers elected for next year are: President, J. Hill; Secretary, P. J. Webb. J.H. 47


THE HALL FELLOWSHIP cannot yet be said to have adapted itself to the situation it faces. There is a necessary tension in its aims which makes programme arrangements difficult. The Fellowship must concern itself with living as a body of Christians and at the same time be outward-looking in problems that concern all, whatever their belieÂŁ In the last year there have been difficulties over common worship and common activity: the War-on-want lunches have not gone too well: the Youth Club has suffered from too many helpers, though not from the Fellowship. Meetings included films on Nigeria and India, and a successful Brains Trust on the church and social problems. Perhaps the most interesting meeting was a discussion of Christian traditions, and the more of meetings which provide greater knowledge and tmderstanding among Christians and/or non-Christians, the better. J.W.M.

THE HALL FELLOWSHIP

THE SOCIETY OF COSMOGRAPHERS ALTHOUGH THE ENTRY in last year's Magazine was made without an actual report being sent in, it was nevertheless accurate in its estimation of the Society's activities. Similarly this year has seen an identical pattern of events on the theme of eating and drinking. The Cosmographers were brought together for the first time this year at a sherry party in Hall in Michaelmas term, which effectively initiated cosmographical Freshmen into the more lighthearted aspects of social geography. The only other event was a dinner held in the Copper Kettle in Trinity term at which D. J. Fitzwilliams and R. A. S. Offer were appointed President and Secretary respectively. R.A.S.O. THE CONTEMPORARY LITERATURE SOCIETY President: A. J. McNAMEE MICHAELMAS TERM TWO MEETINGS WERE HELD. A. w. Binks read a paper on Conrad which was very well received and A. Gorringe read a paper on Thomas Mann's 'Death in Venice', attracting a large number of modern linguists and giving rise to a very lively discussion. HILARY TERM I. Alexander started us off with a scholarly paper on Wallace Stevens. B. R. H. Hall gave an 'Introduction to modern American literature' and at the last meeting of term A. J. McNamee gave a paper on David Storey.


TRINITY TERM Two meetings were held in the latter part of term. J. Williams departed from tradition in speaking from notes in his talk on Brechtan innovation which was most successful. To complete the term A. Doulton gave a paper on Virginia WoolÂŁ This attracted a number of Freshmen and these new voices added much to the life of the discussion. We would like to thank all our contributors and supporters: the Dean for so kindly lending us his room on a number of evenings: Dr. Mitchell for lending us his room on one occasion at extremely short notice. A.J.McN.

THE CHESS CLUB President: A. J. GRIFFITH ONCE AGAIN the club has had a successful season. The Cuppers team, frequently consisting of P.A. Gelles, A. J. Griffith, D. Cruden, R. A. Chapman, A. A. Brigden and A. Lambert, achieved a run of narrow and unexpected victories which was only broken in the semi-final. In the inter-college lightning chess tournament we finished fourth, Griffith and Gelles each scoring 4 out of 5 on the top two boards. A more casual approach to league matches resulted in little progress, but provided an occasional game for anyone who was willing to play, as well as for one or two who were not. The officers for next season are: Captain, P. A. Gelles; Secretary, A. A. Brigden. A.J.G.

THE SCOPE CLUB Presidents: R. WILCOCK, R. LAMB, S. BENSON Secretaries: G. MARSH, D. McCAMMON, D. CHARMAN THEIR THREE OMNIPOTENCIES, Wilcock, Lamb and Benson, presided over the weekly meetings of the three conferences in accordance with what may now be termed tradition. The customary democratic means of selecting 'the scope of the week' ensured the brotherhood of excellent Monday evening entertainment. Naturally 'all scopes were good scopes but some were better than others', although certain unwary comments from new brethren and unwary older D

49


brethren warranted the attentions of the Disciplinary Officers who , under the direction of the President fined them as heavily as possible. It is not the custom to single out any one brother ... however, Br. Gush managed to accumulate fines which, in total, would have kept the brotherhood in interval ice-creams for a whole conference. With the cunning expected of him, Br. Gush tendered his resignation in the nick of time. The many memorable scopes attended included such classics as 'Tom Jones', 'Bugs Bunny No. 2', 'Richard III', a new Gillette advert and 'The Prize' starring Elke Somner and Elke Somner. Finally may we abhor the decision in all the Oxford scope houses to omit the National Anthem at the end of the day's scoping. D.J.C.

THE HUMANIST SOCIETY

Hon. President: T. M. SCHULLER Chairman: M. R. PAGE

HILARY TERM THE ST. EDMUND HALL Humanist Society was formed in Hilary term to provide a forum, broadly humanist in outlook, for the discussion of questions of interest, opportunities for social work and parties to raise money for charity. At its inaugural meeting some 25 people heard explanatory talks on humanism given by Commaire Kensit and Josephine Newcombe. At the second meeting a large audience heard the Dean on 'The (very) idea of a Christian University', a topic chosen in view of the Dean's somewhat controversial sermon on sex and discipline in the University. At further meetings Dr. Paul Kent talked on 'A Biochemist's view of man' and Simon Downie (S.E.H.) spoke on 'Contemporary African Problems'.

TRINITY TERM In the first week Mr. G. B. Masefield gave a brilliant talk on 'Famine-a human problem' and a party visited a local youth club. In the following week there was a discussion on 'Christian unity and man's future' led by Dr. Nicolas Zernov and Mr. Hector Hawton, editor of 'The Humanist'. In third week Robin Dixon followed up a film with a talk on Danilo Dolci. Professor H. ]. Hunt gave a talk on French Humanism from Montaigne to Sartre and in fourth week Alisdair Macintyre spoke on 'Understanding 50


human behaviour'. In the following week John Sparrow came to talk on 'Pornography and the Law'. Our piece de resistance, however, was the meeting when more than 150 people packed the Dining Hall to hear Professor A.J. Ayer, Marghanita Laski, Professor Zaehner and Dr. Austin Farrer hold forth on mysticism. The following week the study group presented its paper on 'Objections to Humanism' presenting a critical analysis of the work which was then defended by its editor, H. J. Blackham. The charity parties have now raised a total of nearly ÂŁ 70 for Oxfam, Cancer research, muscular dystrophy and the Danilo Doki Trust. M.R.P.

THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY has been received from the officers of the Society, the Editors of the Magazine have been obliged to improvise lest a distinguished record should pass into oblivion. The event of the year was the production of John Osborne's Luther in the Playhouse in Trinity Term. The production was directed by Ian Marter, and the name-part was taken by Nick Elliott. Although both these and the majority of the supporting cast were in their first year, the whole performance had a polish and maturity which won admiration; more than one critic remarked that it forced one to judge it by professional rather than amateur standards. Those who saw it will long remember the dignity and poise with which Nick Elliott played the great reformer; if he did not quite succeed in getting across his greatness as a religious genius, this was probably much more John Osborne's fault than his. He certainly gave unity and life to a play which tends to break up into a series of episodes and which tails off on a diminuendo note. Among the smaller parts David Dodd brought Luther' s coarse-mouthed, wine-swilling father to life with relish, and was ably abetted by John Dodgson in the role of Lucas. Roland Oliver, cultivating broad appeal rather than finesse, brought the house down with his interpretation of Tetzel, while Michael Scannell and Michael Morrow presented, with subtlety and insight, the very different types of Renaissance churchmen symbolized by Cajetan and Pope Leo respectively. One of the most sympathetic performances, although at times his voice was so low as to be almost inaudible, was that of Nigel Thorp as Staupitz. Altogether Luther must be reckoned the most noteworthy College production of the year, and for once merit was recognised by gratifyingly full houses.

Dixon and S. R. Morris reached the final of the 0. U.B.C. Senior Pairs and lost to a very fast Keble pair, both crews once again beating the existing record.

Driscoll getting Junior Trials. HILARY TERM The First Torpid soon showed itself during training as the fastest crew -on the river. It held its place at the head of the river with effortless ease and was in a class of its own. The Second Torpid held its position and the Third (Novice) eight did very well to make four easy bumps and so gain their oars. Bow 2

TRINITY TERM Once again the Hall set up a record by having seven boats on the water during Eights Week. On the first two nights of Eights the Hall bumped Christ Church and Keble, both without difficulty, thereby going Head of the River. The Hall rowed over in grand style on Friday and Saturday. This must surely have been one of the most successful Eights Weeks ever for the Hall Boat Club. The second VIII made four bumps to become the highest 2nd VIII on the river; the 3rd VIII made five bumps and was the highest 3rd VIII; the 4th VIII made five bumps; the 5th VIII made three bumps; the 6th VIII held their position and the Novice VIII made one hump-a¡ total of 21 bumps!

The eight had to row an eliminating round on the Saturday before the Regatta, which it unfortunately lost to Emanuel College, Cambridge, by only two feet. The Four won through the first round of their event, beating St. Thomas's Hospital, London, but lost by two and a half lengths to an experienced St. Catherine's College, Cambridge crew in the second round.

The 1964 season was most certainly a successful one. Nineteen first eleven fixtures were played of which seven were won, two lost, and ten drawn. The inost testing of the new fixtures-against Leicester University-ended in a thrilling draw. There were many good performances during the season. P. J. Wilson topped the batting averages with 64, followed by A. A. A. K. Abbassi who scored over four hundred runs at an average of 44. The leading wicket takers were J. R. Taylor (29),]. H. North (27) and R. Truelove (22). The second eleven played eight fixtures with very mixed success. Hall colours were awarded to A. A. A. K. Abbassi, N. A. Boucher, Haines, M. ]. Notley,]. H. North, S. Benson and R. Truelove. The election of new officers was postponed until Michaelmas Term. J.R.T.

THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: E. P. GusH Vice-Captain: A. Rix Secretary: G. P. WILLIAMS

MICHAELMAS TERM THE FIRST MATCH against Battersea College was won in fine style and revealed some promising Freshmen. During the term we won 7 matches, lost 7 and drew I and finished second in the First League. The second XV, led admirably by the veteran Rae, finished at the top of their league. HILARY TERM The term started with a highly successful tour to Belfast where two matches were won and one lost. The first game against Queen's . University, Belfast, in which we narrowly won, provided some of the best rugby seen in Northern Ireland for some time. Special thanks are due to S. R. Hogg for magnificent hospitality, without whom the tour would have been impossible. During Cuppers the Hall played excellent rugby to win the Cup without our line being crossed. In five games we scored 144 points and had only six scored against us. In the friendlies we lost to Emmanuel and St. John's College, Cambridge, but beat Christ's College, Cambridge in a hard match at home. Colours were awarded to R. J. Brewer, R. C. Broughton, F. B. Day, R. G. Farbrother, D. J. L. Fitzwilliams, J. Gormally, E. J. Gould, P. Hodson, J. C. Long, G. Marsh, D. C. Morton, J. W. Musther, R. N. Oliver, I. R. K. Rae, M. S. Simmic and A. G. D. Whyte. Officers for the season 1964-5 are: Captain, G. Marsh; Hon. Secretary, P. Hodson. E.P.G. THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: J.

P~

MARSH

Secretary: S. 0. BURGESS

MICHAELMAS TERM IN THE LEAGUE only three of the seven matches were won, but in friendly games the Hall gained impressive 3-2 victories over Caius, Cambridge and Guy's Hospital. We also beat Emmanuel College 56


and Fitzwilliam House, Cambridge and the London School of Economics. Icarus and the Old Aularians both succeeded in overcoming weaker Hall sides . . During the tour of Paris, immediat~ly after the end of term, all three matches were lost, to Ecole des Cadres 3-2, E.N.S.E.P.S. 3-0, and S.H.A.P .E. 4-2.

HILARY TERM Games were won against Jesus College, Cambridge, L.S.E. and in a return fixture against the Ecole des Cadres, but there were also some heavy defeats, to Westminster College 8-2, Imperial College 6-1, and Battersea College 4-0. Victory in the final of Cuppers, however, regained for the Hall the trophy lost in 1962. After a comfortable first round win over University, 7-0, there were many anxious moments before a 2-1 victory was gained over Corpus. The second XI performed most capably throughout the season, losing only three games-all friendlies-and winning the Second XI League. Colours were awarded to D. F. Baxter, E. I. F. Roberts, J. C. Sherman, W. C. T. Rogers,]. A. Hall and G. W. P. Barber. S. 0. Burgess and]. A. Hall were elected Captain and Secretary respectively for 1964-5. S.O.B.

THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: P. W. MooDY Secretary: R. P. MEERES THE DIFFERENCE IN RESULTS obtained by the Cuppers team and by the League team was phenomenal. The Cuppers team had only one fright in its steady progress to winning the cup for the second successive season, beating W adham, Merton, University and Keble. The League team, however, was very lucky to stay in the first division, beating only New College and losing to Corpus, Worcester, Lincoln and Oriel. The second XI played always with gusto if not with delicate poise and enjoyed moderate success. The Hall had eight representatives in the University match. Hall colours were awarded to R. M. Oliver, A. L. Bond and R. G. Begy. C. B. Harmer was elected Captain and A. L. Bond Secretary for 1964-5. R.P.M. 57


THE LAWN TENNIS CLUB Captain: A. G. Rix Secretary: I. H. BENNETT THIS YEAR the Club has again had a less successful season than it might have expected. Our fairly successful side of last year was largely occupied with work and unfortunately there were no outstanding freshmen except M. Nealy. Of six league matches played we won only two. In Cuppers we were seeded to meet University in the final. In the early stages our passage was easy until we met Brasenose in the semi-final. With Nealy away playing in an outside tournament and with M. Sproule and T. Benoy occupied with Schools, we were only able to field half our full side. The result was a disappointing 5-3 defeat. The following have represented the Hall in Cuppers or the League: C.J. G. Atkinson, M. Nealy, G. C. Warner, M. F. Sproule, R. P. Meeres, A. G. Rix, T. J. Benoy, K. Hindle, J. Parr, I. H. Bennett, R. P. Maudling, D. C. Morton and P. Israelson. Colours were awarded to I. H. Bennett. Next year's officers will be: Captain, I. H. Bennett; Secretary, R. P. Maudling. I.H.B.

THE ATHLETICS CLUB President: M. L. STATHAM Secretary: A. J. HAWKES MICHAELMAS TERM the Inter-College Relays Cup was regained from Brasenose with considerable ease, and the Field Events Cup was retained two weeks later by a very much narrower margin. In the relays the Hall won each of the seven events by clear distances. The Field Events Cup was won by one point from Keble. The first round of athletics Cuppers was held in Hilary Term and the Hall was given a walk-over in the absence of opposition. In the Trinity Term the Hall reached the final against Trinity, University, Keble, Oriel colleges and Christ Church, and defeated all opposition once again with ease, by 22 points over Trinity. M. Simmie' s sprint double deserves mention, especially his rno yards time of 9.8 seconds, the fastest time by an Oxford athlete this year.

MICHAELMAS TERM ALTHOUGH THE CLUB was not overflowing with talent, remarkable determination was shown in first V and second V fixtures, and was rewarded by the success of the first V in winning the first division league competition.

HILARY TERM In Cuppers we reached the finals to be defeated by an extremely strong team put out by University. The score was 0-5 in matches. Colours were awarded to M. G. Nealy, D. King-Farlow and R. Pelham. Officers for the coming season are: Captain, M. G. M. Groves; Secretary, D. King-Farlow.

M.G.M.G. THE BADMINTON CLUB Captain: C. J. B. JAMES Secretary: C. D. STATHAM

MICHAELMAS TERM HAVING BEEN PROMOTED to Division I at the end of last season, the Club did particularly well to finish third in this division. We were victorious against Hertford, Lincoln and Queen's but lost to St. John's and B.N.C., the eventual winners of the league.

HILARY TERM In Cuppers we were defeated in an exciting second match with St. Peter's, the final result depending on a deciding singles match. Four other matches were played, two against Westminster College and two against Culham College. Of these one was won and three were lost. Colours were awarded to C. D. Statham. Officers for 1964-5 are: Captain, C. D. Statham; Secretary, B. Bailey. C.D.S. 59


THE SWIMMING CLUB Captain: A. J. CowAN INSTEAD OF THE GLORIOUS WINS of the previous year, the Hall had to be satisfied with a seemingly endless succession of fourth places. We were placed fourth in the league swimming and waterpolo competitions. In Cuppers the Hall reached the semi-final of water-polo to lose to the eventual winners, W adham, whilst in swimming Cuppers we were placed fourth behind a strong St. Peter's team. On an overcast Tuesday in early June, ten brave men and true gathered at. the O.U.B.C. to. do battle in the Annual Hall River Race. As usual the Dean was on hand to see fair play and rescue those in mortal danger. The race was a close battle all the way, with Faxon leading until the last few inches, when he was caught by Cowan. The time of 12 minutes 34.9 seconds for the course from the 0. U.B. C. to Donnington Bridge was probably a record although ¡ none could remember exactly. The Captain for next year will be M. B. Faxon. A.J.C.

THE GOLF CLUB Captain: P. M. HULMES Secretary: J.

c. w.

CRAYSHAW

THE FIXTURE LIST FOR THE CLUB was shorter than usual this year, the match against St. John's, Cambridge and that against Frilford Heath Ladies failing to materialise. Regretably we lost our three matches, at Huntercombe, Temple and Goring and Streatley, though it must be said that it was solid play from the opposition combined with over-generous handicap allowances, rather than poor play on the part of the Hall, which caused our defeats. Results:

v. Huntercombe Ladies. Lost I~ si v. Temple Ladies. Lost 3-6 v. Goring and Streatley Ladies. Lost 3-4 J.C.W.C. 60


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, 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.

ENDOWMENT FUND ALTHOUGH FOR THE MOMENT the N ew Buildings Fund takes precedence in the Hall's money-raising efforts, the Endowment Fund retains its central and vitally important position in our permanent financial strategy. Indeed, since one of its specified objectives is the extension of the Hall's buildings, the Endowment Fund has played a notable part in the purchase of the new site, and it has also made, and will continue to make, valuable contributions to the realization of the briilding plans. It is therefore satisfactory to record that subscriptions to it, by gift or under deed of covenant, have been maintained throughout the past year. The following is the list of subscribers:
