DE PERSONIS ET REBUS AULARIBUS THE ST. ED.MUND HALL ASSOCIATION

w AS AT the second Reunion, on 22 April 1924, that the Aularian Association was instituted, with the obj ect of 'rallying round the Hall all old members who wish to uphold and assist the Hall in every way that they can'. Since then it has been a source of immense strength to the Hall and the focal point of Aularian activities, but its constitution, minor modifications apart, has remained virtually unchanged. Last winter, as a result of a suggestion put forward by Dr. Emden (on whose initiative it had been founded), the President and Executive Committee decided that the time had come for certain major constitutional changes designed to take account of its maturity, the greatly increased number and distinction of its members, and its consequent preparedness for the autonomy which societies of this kind normally enjoy. The major reform which seemed desirable was that the rule that the Principal of the Hall should always be President (an arrangement which was natural enough during the Association's formative years) should be abrogated and provision made that the Presidency should be held by an Aularian. At the same time it seemed appropriate to tidy up a number of small anomalies and introduce other minor changes in the interests of clarity and efficiency. A sub-committee was accordingly invited to submit suggestions for a new constitution, and these were discussed and amended at meetings of the Executive IT

l

Committee on 12 January and l l February. As a result of these discussions a draft constitution was prepared, circulated to all members of the Association whose addresses were available, and submitted to the Annual General Meeting on 26 June. With two amendments previously agreed by the Executive Committee, this constitution was unanimously approved, and it was agreed that it should come into operation on I I January, 1966, immediately prior to the London Dinner. For the convenience of members the text is appended.

THE PRINCIPAL THE MAGAZINE congratulates the Principal on being elected, in July, a Fellow of the British Academy. In Michaelmas Term, 1964, he was admitted as a Pro-Vice-Chancellor, and in that capacity has represented the Vice-Chancellor at numerous functions, including matriculations and degree ceremonies. In the same term he was appointed a Delegate of the University Chest, a member of the Visitatorial Board, Chairman of the Delegates of the Department 3

of Education, and Chairman of the Delegates of the Institute of Education. In Hilary Term he was appointed -Chairman of the Curators of the Oriental Institute and, on the nomination of the Senior Proctor (Dr. Yardley), a Delegate of Privileges. In Trinity Term he joined the Building and Development Committee, and was made Chairman of the ad hoe Committee for the development of the St. Clement's area. In November, 1964, he resigned from the prebend of Wightring in Chichester Cathedral, which he had held for fourteen years and which carries the obligation to give an annual course of lectures, and was immediately appointed by the Bishop to the less onerous stall of Highleigh on the opposite side of the choir.

In July he distributed the prizes at Magdalen College School. In the course of the year he preached at St. Edward's School, Lancing College and The King's School, Canterbury; he was also guest speaker at a branch dinner of the Oxford Society in Chester in March.

THE FELLOWS Mr. C. W. F. R. Gullick, Dr. R. B. Mitchell and Mr. J. C. B. Gosling were absent, for the whole or part of the past academic year, on sabbatical oi; study leave. Dr. R. Fargher acted as secretary to the Governing Body during Mr. Gullick's absence, while Dr. F. J. C. Rossotti performed some of his senior tutorial duties; Dr. I. D. Scargill acted as Dean of Degrees in place of Mr. Gosling. The Dean (Revd. E. G. Midgley) and Dr. Scargill were nominated as Pro-Proctors by Dr. D. C. M. Yardley when he was admitted as Senior Proctor on 17 March. Mr. Midgley has continued to be Chairman of the Faculty of English Language and Literature and a member of the English Faculty Board. He preached at Gresham's School, Holt, and once again shared in running a camp for Borstal boys and undergraduates in Yorkshire in July. Dr. Yardley gave four lectures on Administrative Law to visiting Attorney Generals and Solicitor Generals from the Commonwealth .at Marlborough House in December, 1964, and read a paper on Matrimonial Law to the Justices' Clerks Association at Wadham College in April. He examined for the Winter Williams Law Prizes in February, and was re-elected a member of the Board of the Faculty of Jurisprudence in Trinity Term. He was also appointed a Foundation Governor of the School of St. Helen and St. Katherine, Abingdon. Mr. R. E. Alton was selected as their spokesman by representatives of the financially least affluent men's colleges and the women's colleges, and in that capacity led the evidence which these colleges gave to the Commission of Inquiry in June. Dr. G. W. Series was appointed the University's representative on the GovernDR. G. D. RAMSAY,

4

ing Body of Reading School, and was Secretary of the Organizing Committee of the Conference on 'Atomic Spectra and Radiation Processes' held at the Clarendon Laboratory in April. He examined in the Final Honour School of Physics in Trinity Term. Dr. R. B. Mitchell examined in the Final Honour School of English Language and Literature in Trinity Term. The Magazine congratulates the Chaplain (Revd. H. E. J. Cowdrey) on the birth of a daughter, Elizabeth; he was examiner in the Pass School. Professor W. HumeRothery delivered the l7th Hatfield Memorial Lecture at Sheffield on 19 May. Dr. J. D. Todd acted as Deputy Professor of Engineer-' ing from July to December, 1964, and was co-opted a member of the Board of the Faculty of Physical Sciences in April. Dr. Rossotti examined in Part II of the Final Honour Schools of Chemistry and Metallurgy in Trinity Term; he also examined for the Gibbs Scholarship in Chemistry. He acted as chairman at sessions of the VIIIth International Conference on Coordination Chemistry in Vienna and at the Hungarian Chemical Society's Symposium on Coordination Chemistry at Tihany in September, 1964. He lectured on 'Complex Ions' to the Science Vlth Form at Bromsgrove School in May. Mr. P. Swann paid a visit to Canada and the United States and lectured at Toronto and New York on Chinese painting. We congratulate Mr. J. P. D. Dunbabin on the birth of his daughter Bridget. Mr. R. Oxburgh examined in the Final Honour School of Geology in Trinity Term. Last April he spent a fortnight at the University of Vienna under the British Council's research workers exchange scheme and read a paper to the Geologische Gesellschaft in Wien.

AN HONORARY FELLOWSHIP notes with delighted satisfaction that the Governing Body has elected George Wilson Knight to an Honorary Fellowship. Professor Wilson Knight (he has held chairs in English at Trinity College, Toronto, and, more recently, at the University of Leeds) is an Aularian born and bred than whom no one alive today has made a more illuminating contribution to the deeper interpretation of literature and, more particularly, of Shakespearian drama.

Not only is he the most distinguished scholar in the field of English studies whom the Hall has produced, but his books on Shakespeare (especially The Wheel of Fire and The Imperial Theme) have turned!

Shakespearian studies into wholly new lines and have affected all subsequent Shakespearian criticism. His more recent work on Byron has added to his reputation. The width of his knowledge and investigations can be assessed from the ¡two inches of close print assigned to the list of his publications in Who's Who; while only THE MAGAZINE

5

those who have seen the plays which he has produced or in which he has acted can appreciate the brilliance of his insight into the problems of drama or his zest in its performance. It is gratifying to have a scholar who is also a creative critic and something of a prophet added to the small and distinguished list of the Hall's Honorary Fellows.

THE PROCTORSHIP WEDNESDA'Y' 3 FEBRUARY' was a notable date in the Hall's history, for at 2 p.m. that afternoon (in the language of the Statute) 'the members of the Governing Body, being members of Convocation, together with all members of the College who are also members of Congregation' (or such of them as were able to be present) met in the dining hall and elected a Proctor. In earlier ages, it will be recalled, the Hall, .as an unincorporated society, did not possess the privilege of electing to this great University office. This belonged exclusively to the Colleges, but the Hall was granted it by special legislation in 1954, that is, some years prior to the granting of the charter. As the colleges are arranged in pairs for the purpose of electing Proctors, the Hall as a newcomer naturally had to wait a number of years before its turn came round. The person chosen at this historic election was Dr. D. C. M. Yardley, senior Fellow in Jurisprudence, and as he was senior in standing to his fellow Proctor from St. Peter's College, he assumed office as Senior Proctor.

Aularians wish Dr. Yardley every success in carrying out his extremely arduous, and often delicate, responsibilities. ' NEW FELLOWSHIPS has been the most fruitful in the Hall's history in the creation of Fellowships. First, in Decem.ber, 1964, Ernest Ronald Oxburgh, M.A., University Lecturer in Geology, who had been the Hall's Official Lecturer since 1963 and had given tuition to Aularians for some years before that, was elected to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Geology. Then in February, 1965, Norman Charles Pollock, B.Litt., M.A., Lecturer in the School of Geography and since 1956 Lecturer at the Hall, was elected to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Geography. A graduate originally of Cape Town, Mr. Pollock is himself an Aularian, having entered the Hall in 1945 after demobilization from the South African Army; for a time he was Lecturer in charge of Geography at Fort Hare University. Thirdly, in April this year Richard Good Smethurst, B.A., Student of Nuffield College, whose appointment as Lecturer in Economics was announced in last year's issue of the Magazine, was elected to a Fellowship and Tutorship in that subject. Finally in Trinity Term the THE PAST YEAR

6

Governing Body elected Vivian Hughes Ridler, M.A., Printer to the University, to a Professorial Fellowship. The Magazine congratulates all four, and extends to them its very best wishes. Friends of the Hall will note with awed interest that, as a result of these elections the Governing Body consists, at the date of going to press, of twenty-six members.

THE LECTURERS the Hall has lost the services of two of its Lecturers.

Dr. B. W. G. Rose, Lecturer in Music, felt obliged to resign his appointment in Trinity Term owing to the exceptional pressure on his time as both Organist and Tutor in Music at Magdalen College.

Dr. G. D. Meakins has resigned his Lecturership in Organic Chemistry on his election to a Fellowship at Keble College. On the other hand, the Governing Body has appointed E. P. Wilson, B.A., of New College, to be Lecturer (jointly with University College) in English Language, J. A. D. Welsh, M .A., D.Phil., to be Research Lecturer in Mathematics, and R. T. Aplin, D.Phil., B.Sc. (Lond.), Departmental Research Assistant in the Dyson Perrins Laboratory, to be Lecturer in Organic Chemistry. The Hall congratulates Dr. Welsh on his marriage on 10 July.

TO ITS REGRET

GOOD AND FAITHFUL announces with the deepest regret the death of Mr. Alfred Percival Blay, known to generations of Aularians as Alf. He died, after a brief but trying illness, on r4th May, and his funeral took place on the afternoon of r8 May; it was conducted by the Principal, and a large gathering of Fellows, members of the staff and undergraduates were present. Alf Blay was aged 63 when he died, and joined the Hall as Head Scout in October, 1926. His exceptionally long period of service was only interrupted by the war years, when he served as a full-time member of The Royal Observer Corps. He was a skilled gardener, and his garden in the season was always full of beautiful blooms; and he was also a wellinformed collector of stamps. There can have been few scouts in the Oxford colleges who were more accomplished masters of their art in all its aspects; and with his high standards, his meticulous performance of his duties, and the warm, very human nature which lay behind his outward reserve, he won the respect and affection of all those with whom or for whom he worked. He leaves behind him his wife, a son and a daughter, and to these the sincere sympathy of Aularians everywhere goes out.

DESIGN FOR GRACIOUS LIVING THE PLANS for the new buildings, as Aularians attending the summer Reunion were informed, have now been passed by both the City and the Fine Arts Council, and (by courtesy of The Times, whose copyright it is) a photograph of the model prepared by the architects is published in this issue. The challenge which Kenneth Stevens and Associates had to face was a testing one, for the Forum site is by no means spacious and the Governing Body requested them to place a lot on it. The main features of their design are clearly discernible on the photograph, and it is the view of the Magazine that they have surmounted the difficulties in an ingenious and attractive manner.

At the lower, right-hand corner the existing quadrangle can be glimpsed, with the tree standing out and the Canterbury Buildings behind it. The main block rises prominently in the middle, with the Wolfson Dining Hall supported on slender concrete columns and forming the ground floor. Above it are four floors of study bedrooms for undergraduates, each comprising six units on the west side (visible on the photograph) and six (not visible) on the east side.

The approach to these floors is by staircases in the two towers at the north and south ends of the building respectively, and they are fully equipped with shower baths and washing and toilet facilities.

The single-floor construction projecting at first floor level from the north-east face of the dining hall and resting at its north end on the wall of New College garden houses the Senior Common Room and Fellows' lunching room.

At the extreme left of the picture can be seen the second main residential block. Occupying the site of the premises at present known as 55A High Street, it runs parallel to Long Wall Street and immediately behind the lodging houses along it. The towerlike structure in which it terminates and which forms a minor climax in the plan marries gracefully with the old city wall (not visible on the photograph) and is intended to accommodate graduate students.

The remainder of the block will be assigned to 28 study bedrooms of similar design to those above the dining hall and similarly equipped. The low, single-floor building which fills the space between this block and the dining hall block contains on the far side spacious kitchens, washing-up rooms, store-rooms, servants' offices and dining room, etc. ; on the nearer side it is occupied by a new J. C.R. and a room for club dinners, parties, etc. The J.C.R. will have an attractive outlook on a small grassed court. One of the most original and delightful features of the design is that the whole extensive roof of the low building housing the J.C.R., kitchens, etc. is planned as a

8

deck to which all members of the College will have access and where they can freely walk and disport themselves.

For the purpose of gaining access to the building site, it has proved necessary to demolish temporarily No. 49 High Street, which has been occupied by Hall undergraduates since the early 'thirties and known as Staircase IX. The plans envisage the eventual rebuilding of this house on altogether new and more efficient lines, and the complete reconstruction of the adjacent house (Staircase X); and the small block at present known as Staircase XI, in which are placed the surgery and guest-room, will also be refashioned as part of the same scheme. An impression of what the architects have planned for this area can be seen at the top right-hand corner of the photograph of the model.

The main Besse Building, as the photograph shows, will remain virtually untouched, although the protruding mezzanines will be removed. As they study the plans, readers will observe how skilful the architects have been in contriving, in spite of the limitations of the site and the amount of accommodation required, a variety of pleasant small courts in addition to the spacious deck above the J.C.R. and kitchens.

WELCOME DESTRUCTION (lxxv. 7) was understandably distressed by the sound of axes and hammers smashing the carved work of the sanctuary, but a not dissimilar clangour brought jubilation to Aularian breasts in July, August and September. At long last the Forum was coming down. Built in 1904, it had a long and honourable history and had sheltered a host of varied activities under its ample roofs. All things to all men, it had served at different times as a meeting place for Masonic lodges (the buildings included a temple), a hostel during the two wars for the staffs of the hospitals located in the Schools, a dance-hall and a restaurant, the venue for receptions of every kind, and (last ignominy) a bingo hall. Its demolition, along with the clearing of the area it occupied, was undertaken as the necessary prelude to the start of work on the new buildings. Equally necessary, though in the short term more painful to the Hall, has been the destruction along with it of adjacent premises (55A High Street, the mezzanines of the Besse Building, Staircases IX, X and XI, and certain offices) which have hitherto been in occupation by the Hall.

Their temporary disappearance will drastically reduce accommodation available for undergraduates for the next three years or so. It should be regarded, however, as a surgical operation which, awkward at the time, is bound to open the way to a richer and healthier life for the Hall and its members. The Magazine includes photographs of the gaping wounds.

NEW BUILDINGS FUND WITH THE APPROVAL of its architectural plans by the responsible bodies and the demolition of the Forum and adjacent premises, the Governing Body fully expects that a start will be made on the new buildings next summer. As a result it is clear that the Hall has reached the final and decisive lap of its campaign to raise funds to finance these great developments. The overall cost is estimated to be in excess of ÂŁ500,000, and the Magazine is glad to report that, through the generosity of the Wolfson Foundation, the support of the Hall's existing Endowment and Extension Fund, and carefully planned transfers by the Governing Body, the larger portion of this, approximately ÂŁ3 50,000, has already been raised. The gap which remains to be bridged, however, is a formidable one, and Aularians do not need to be reminded that no assistance can be expected from the University Grants Committee or other public sources. The Hall therefore decided, as many will already have heard, to revive the Appeal this winter, and engaged the services of a professional firm (Hooker Craigmyle and Co. Ltd.) which has had considerable experience and success in raising funds for schools and colleges. The Magazine is confident that all Aularians, whether they responded or not to the 1962 Appeal, will cooperate with this final effort so that the Hall may be spared the burden and embarrassment of extensive borrowing. By the time the Magazine reaches members, the campaign will have been well under way; but if any have wavered or been dilatory, it is hoped that this notice will stir their consciences.

In the meantime due and grateful acknowledgement should be made of the donations made to the N ew Buildings Fund between l August, 1964, and 31 July, 1965. The following have made out deeds of covenant: J. D. Andrewes; C. G. Burnham; J. H. D. Campbell; J. C. Cain; J. Hackney (Fellow); C. G. Hadley ; G. E. Janson-Smith; Revd. W. A. W. Jarvis; D. V. Jones; J. H. W. Lapham; M. G. Lewis; R. B. Mitchell (Fellow); P. M. Newell.

The following have made single gifts or donations: J. N. Appelbe; G. Barner (in 1963); A. K. Barton; G. J. Carey; B. R. Coates; W. H. Couzens (third gift); C. A. J. Cox ; J. A. K. Erskine; Revd.

I. Evans (a third and a fourth gift); P.R. Evans (in 1962); D.J. Henwood; M. J. P. MacNair; G. W. McNaught; The Queen's College; E. D. Sprague (further gifts); C. G. Thorne; P. D. Wilson.

LONG WALL EXTENSION is glad to report that the Hall has been able to obtain a 21 years' lease of 7 Long Wall Street from Magdalen College. The premises have for many years been used for undergraduate lodgings, and the Hall's plan is to turn them into a graduate THE MAGAZINE

10

hostel; the accommodation availabk is sufficient for at any rate six graduate students, and there is also space for a large common room, a writing or dining room, and kitchen facilities. In the long term, having regard to the increase in the number of postgraduates, this house should provide the Hall with a very valuable amenity; while in the short term, when the Hall has temporarily lost a number of its existing rooms owing to the demolitions connected with the development plans, it should help to ease the accommodation problem.

ECCLESIASTICAL PATRONAGE in the 1959-60 issue of the Magazine, the Hall is now patron, for one turn in three, of the combined living of St. Oswald's, Hooe, with St. Mary's, Ninfield, Sussex. The two benefices fell vacant last year, and it has therefore fallen to the Governing Body to appoint an incumbent. Its choice has fallen on the Revd. F. J. C. Turner, until recently Rector of Lynch, near Liphook. Mr. Turner was instituted by the Bishop of Lewes on 21 July, the Hall being represented by the Dean, who read the presentation deeds.

ANNOUNCED

AMENDS TO DR. MOORE Octogenarian enterprise of his youngest daughter, Mrs. Robinson (the mother, it should be recorded of the present Bishop of Woolwich), the Hall has at last obtained a worthy portrait in oils of Dr. Edward Moore, the scholarly and determined Principal who by his protracted reign (1864-1913) saved it from absorption in Queen's. When Mrs. Robinson learned that the only representation of her father that the Hall possessed was a crude and flat copy of a highly unsatisfactory original, she commissioned Mr. John Ward, A'.R.A., well known for his drawings and watercolours of the Royal Family, to prepare, with the aid of photographs which she supplied, a portrait which would be distinguished in itself and would convey a more adequate impression of its subject. The Aularian Association (as reported elsewhere in this issue) has made a handsome contribution towards the cost, and several Aularians who were at the Hall in Dr. Moore' s time, as well as his two living successors in office, have also rallied round; the Governing Body has generously agreed to meet the balance. The portrait itself, which appropriately was undertaken and completed in the centenary year of Dr. Moore' s appointment, is a fine, vigorous work, and those who recall Dr. Moore in his old age at Canterbury pronounce it to be a striking likeness.

THROUGH THE

II

BEQUESTS Miss Lucy Emma Chick, of Bognor Regis, has made a bequest to the Hall of the residue of her estate, amounting to £3 ,160 19s. 9d., for the purpose of establishing a scholarship in memory of her deceased friend, the Revd. Arthur Dry, a graduate of the Hall.

The late Revd. Canon Clement Leeper, M.A. (matric. 1900), has left the sum of£ 100 to the Hall.

The late Charles Frederic Todd, B.A. (matric. 1912), has left a collection of books (n1ainly dealing with Wordsworth, Coleridge, Southey and their circle) to the Hall; also the sum of $1,000, which is to come to the Hall after the death of his widow.

The Hall is deeply grateful for these valuable bequests.

THE LATE

GIFTS THE BEST THANKS of the Hall are due to the following for gifts which they have presented: .

A. F. Colborn (matric. 1928) for a copy of his book Hali Meidhad (Copenhagen and London, 1940).

F. H. H. Finch (matric. 1933) for a silver tankard, inscribed, in memory of the late M. Y. Ffrench-Williams.

Group Captain P. W. Lowe Holmes for a gilded name plate for the portrait in oils of his great-great-great-great uncle, the Revd.

Dr. Thomas Shaw, sometime Principal, in the dining hall.

A. Marsh (Research Fellow) for a silver cigar-cutter.

E. S. Trippe (matric. 1964) for a painting in oils (Crisp) of the Boat Race, March 1965, with O xford leading.

R. T. C. Worsley (matric. 1936) for miscellaneous Hearniana and a set of records of inaugural addresses by recent Presidents of the United States of America.

FRANCIS BENNION PRIZES the subject of the Francis Bennion Prize Essay was 'The Place of the Doctrine of Privity of Contract in Modern English Law'. The first prize of £20 (divided) was awarded to P. A. Gelles and J. A. Reid; the second prize of £ IO (divided) went to P. Hodson and D. King-Farlow.

THIS YEAR

GRAHAM HAMILTON TRAVEL GRANTS o N CE A GAIN the incorn.e of the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund was generously supplemented by a gift of £60 from the Aularian Association. As a result the Governing Body was able to make grants of between £10 and £20 to the following undergraduates for trips planned for the Long Vacation: P. F. Allen(journey to the Meteora and Mount Athos on a donkey); P. A. Coleridge (journey along the north coast of Africa from Morocco to Egypt); T. D. Hawkins (a 12

rock and ice course in the Oetztal);]. F. Mew (an equestrian trip in S.W. Ireland); N.]. Morley (a U.N.S.A. trip to Japan); T.]. Picton and M. ]. C. Streatfeild (bicycle journey to and from Saas Fee, followed by climbing in the Alps.)

RECORDS ON THE RIVER THE ACHIEVEMENTS of the Boat Club last summer deserve to be singled out for special mention. Not only did the First VIII retain the headship of the river with unchallenged mastery, but at Henley the Hall VIII won the Ladies' Plate and the Hall IV (composed of members of the VIII) the Visitors' Cup. In addition the record-breaking Isis crew which carried off the Thames Cup was strengthened by two Hall oarsmen, as was the Leander IV which won the Prince Philip Cup in such convincing fashion and in record time. According to historians, the last time an Oxford double was achieved was in 1923, and on that occasion two colleges shared the distinction together.

The last double triumph by one O xford college was in 1883, when Christ Church won these two events. Altogether it was a week without parallel in the rowing annals of any Oxford college.

THE OFFICERS

THE SUMMER DANCE AT LA s T the Editors can say with perfect certainty that the last Summer Ball has been held in the Forum for, as this report is being typed the sound of the hammers of the demolition men echoes from the Back Quadrangle !

Freed from any inhibitions, in the knowledge that the place was never to be used again, the decor specialist painted the whole Forum sky blue and set sailing against this clouds and zodiacal signs which in the subdued light proved a most effective setting for music by Trevor Hall and the Jetset and for an amazing performance by Miss Peggy Phango in the early hours of the morning. In the front Quad beneath the awning a variety of music and noise was provided by a galaxy of bands, The Seven Stars, the Jetset (allowed out for air). Them and the Blue Monks! In the Hall the smoochy dancers had their own juke box to play. Every ticket was sold and we could have sold more if there had been room for more on the packed floors. The weather was kind and spirits were high. We would like to congratulate the Committee on making this Last Night of the Forum a worthy one. It was pleasant too not to have to organise a clearing-up party on the morning after. The old place went down with all her streamers flying .

THE LONDON DINNER was in the chair at Simpson's on January 12th, when approximately 100 Old Aularians sat down to a traditional Simpson's di1mer. Before proposing the toast, Floreat Aula, Mr. Day welcomed the Principal and Fellows and responded to the felicitous message from Dr. Emden with customary affection. The Chairman moved on to remind us of some of the virtues of the guest of honour-commending the Principal for his astute political bivalence. He had been wearing spectacles of the same design as Sir Alec Douglas Home for a year or more, and only recently had been seen ploughing his way up the High in a Gannex raincoat identical to that worn by the Prime Minister.

Mr. Day had been doing a little research recently; among University Statutes he had come across references to Principalian duties -'he might travel in order to nourish his family' -the Chairman assured us this evening we were doing the nourishing.

He congratulated the Principal on his appointment as Chairman of the Commission on Relations with the Roman Catholic Church -any man who could deal as adroitly with the Athanasian Creed as did the Principal, was surely a match for Rome. He also congratulated the Honorary Secretary of the Association on his election to a Fellowship at Worcester College.

Mr. Day concluded by speaking of the New Building Appeal for which 1965 would very probably be a crucial year. About the forthcoming building, he hoped that it would not destroy the intimacy achieved by the present structure of the Hall, since this was the essence of the spirit of our foundation-fitting sentiments with which to propose the toast.

Replying the Principal thanked Mr. Day for his kind words, but was nevertheless anxious to correct what he regarded as a mistaken impression. It was not he who kept up with Prin1e Ministers, but they who kept up with him. When visiting his sister (a neighbour of the ¡former Prime Minister), he frequently took a Sunday afternoon walk round the Hirsel. On these occasions, he sometimes stopped to chat with Sir Alec Douglas Home and had come to the conclusion subsequently that the latter had copied the Principal' s spectacles. The Prime Minister, whom the Principal had known as a junior colleague in years gone by, was always quick to notice who and what was on the make. He had, he assumed, now seen fit to follow the fashion in protective clothing set by the Principal.

The Principal next dwelt on the Hall's recent sporting achievements. Last December's match at Twickenham had been one of the most exciting, due largely to those members of our Society w~o played in the XV, and particularly to the efforts of the Captam DESMOND DAY

r8

who had been (the Principal added) personally selected by himself for entrance to the Hall.

Turning to academic matters, Dr. Kelly said that it was a matter of some satisfaction that at the Scholarship Examinations last October, St. Edmund Hall had a larger number of first choice applicants than any other college in the University.

The Principal concluded by also referring to the New Building Appeal. An Old Aularian, Michael Hooker, had undertaken to put his professional resources behind the Appeal. New plans had been fully approved by the Fellows, and were before the City Planning Committee. It was therefore only a matter of time before the Forum -scene of many an Undergraduate adventure-would be no more, and the new Hall would begin to rise.

Among those present were: The Principal, Dr. R. Fargher, the Reverend J. S. Brewis, Mr. C. F. W.R. Gullick, Professor H.J. Hunt, Mr. R. B. Pugh.

The Executive Committee met as usual in the Principal' s Lodgings at 3.30 p.m. Evensong was at 6 p.m., and at 6.30 p.m. the Annual General Meeting*was held.All members of theAssociation had been invited to attend to consider the new Constitution, which had been circulated to them. The new Constitution was approved unanimously with one or two amendments previously agreed by the Executive Committee.

At the Reunion Dinner the toast Floreat Aula was proposed by the Principal, who said that all who knew Alfred Blay would mourn the death of a most loyal scout who had served the Hall well. He welcomed Dr. Emden, Canon Lamb from Ireland, and Professor Allen Walker Read from New York. He also welcomed the triumvirate of the Establishment now centred in the Hall, Proctor Yardley and Pro-Proctors Midgley and Scargill.

Last year had been one of reasonable academic success and of great distinction in the cultural activities, which had caused the Hall to be the subject of a fourth leader in The Times. The performances of the Musical Society and the John Oldham Society's production of 'The Cherry Orchard' had been outstanding. The sportsmen had lost the Rugby cup, but there was still a great deal of university silver ware about to offend the aesthetic susceptibilities of those on high table. On the river the successes had been remarkable, and the Eight had retained the headship of the river.

Turning to the future, the Principal announced that the plans for the new buildings had been approved by all the necessary administrative and aesthetic bodies. The Forum's days were numbered. On 6th July the hammers and axes would appear and that elegant and fragile building would begin to be demolished. A new building would arise in the spring which would contribute not only to the pride of the Hall but to its convenience. A great deal of money had yet to be raised. The revived Appeal had been placed in the hands of a skilled professional firm whose managing director was an old Aularian. If the money could be raised, in three years' time the ideal for which they had striven could be realized.

L.W.H. *The Minutes of the meeting are printed on p. 65 before the Accounts; the text of the Constitution appears on p. 2.

A graduate in modern languages, he held a number of teaching appointments, mainly abroad, but in the middle 'fifties joined the Foreign Service, his first post being at the British Consulate General at Dusseldorf After a spell in Paris, he moved to the Lebanon, but some two years ago was invalided Home from the Embassy in Beirut with an acute tropical fever which, with its after-effects, kept him in hospital for several months. He had apparently made a good recovery, and his sudden collapse in April was a great shock.

Charles Frederick Todd, B.A., died at Milltown, New Brunswick, after a long and painful illness, on 6 October 1964. A graduate of Yale, he entered the Hall in 1912, and in October 1916, enlisted as a private in the 28th Battalion, London Regiment, but was discharged in May, 1917, owing to illness. In 1918 he returned to Milltown, his native place, where he became a leading citizen, being much interested in the work of St. Paul's Anglican Church and also a member of the Mill town Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.

Hubert Turpin, B.A., who came up to the hall from Stamford School in 1921, died at Stamford on 15 March 1965.

Alan William Wilson Watson, who came up to the Hall from Highgate School in 1935, died of cancer early in April 1965.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE DEBATING SOCIETY President:]. R. EISER Secretary: L. L. PRESSLER AFTER TWO and a half terms in which no debates were held, the Society was revived in Hilary Term with P.]. E. Jones as President and]. R. Eiser as Secretary. Two debates were held, one being a balloon debate.

The present Officers took office in Trinity Term, when four debates were held, bringing the official number of meetings of the Society to 724. Three of these debates were joint meetings with other college debating societies, the first being joint with the C. ]. Fox Debating Society of Hertford College, in the garden of the Turf Tavern, and the second being joint with the Twenty Club of New College. The last was a tripartite affair with the Cardinal Society of Christ Church and with St. Hugh' s College Debating Society.

The officers elected for next year are: President, L. L. Pressler; Secretary, J. A. D. Nesbitt.

THE ESSAY SOCIETY THE ESSAY SOCIETY apparently exhausted its creative energy in the production of what were no doubt brilliant weekly essays, as no report was forthcoming from any of the Presidents for the past year. We very much regret this gap in the recording of the history of the year, and hope that the Society in its next session of general business will censure its officers and exhort them to greater efficiency next year.

THE MUSICAL SOCIETY President: J. D. SHIPPEN Secretary: A. ]. Gourn IN MICHAELMAS TERM the Choral Society grew to its largest-ever proportions, although it was disappointing that few of the freshmen turned out to be instrumentalists. The term's concert consisted of Britten's 'Ceremony of Carols' with Ann Hackney and June Boyce as soloists, accompanied by John Gould, Handel's Organ Concerto Op. 4 No. 3 in which the soloist was D. ]. Dilks, and Vivaldi's 'Gloria' in which the solo parts were sung by Ann Hackney, June Boyce and Nicholas Arnold. The concert was held in St. Michael's, 41

Northgate, and its only disappointing aspect was the lack of members of the Hall in the audience.

The Hilary Term programme was an adventurous one notably in the case of Copland' s 'In the Beginning', a difficult work requiring a large chorus, and also something of an occasion as, for the other main work, John Joubert' s cantata 'Leaves of Life' we were fortunate to have the composer himself as conductor. He said that this was the best performance of his work which he had yet heard and, at his request, was sent a recording of the whole concert. The programme was completed by a Buxtehude cantata and Arnold's Piano Trio.

TRINITY TERM President: A. J. GouLD Secretary: P. L. LITTLE The main event of the term was the Concert in the Quadrangle in Eights Week. The programme included a work by a Hall composer, C. W. B. Johnson's 'Trifle for Four' as well as a repeat of the Divertimento by the Oxford Professor of Music, J. A. Westrup, an arrangement for two pianos of Malcolm Arnold's 'Scottish Dances', and a selection of madrigals and part songs. The concert was concluded in the usual manner, with a Toy Symphony, this year by Michael Frey han.

THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY

MICHAELMAS AND HILARY TERMS President: D. J. DODD Secretary: I. D. MARTER THE so CIETY' s production for the 1964 O.U.D.S. Drama Cuppers was 'The Public Eye' by Peter Shaffer, directed by M. J. A. Scannell and designed by D. Outhwaite. Members of the society appearing were J. J. Fox and D. J. Morriss; Miss Jenny Moss (St. Hugh's) was guest actress. The production was selected for the Finals which were held in the Playhouse, the other competing colleges being Merton and Brasenose. The adjud1cator, Mr. J. W. Lambert, literary editor of The Sunday Times, placed the society's production first.

TRINITY TERM President: N. R. THORP Secretary: M. J. A. SCANNELL The Society's annual major production was performed in the Playhouse. This was a joint production with the Eglesfield Players of

42

Queen's College of 'The Cherry Orchard' by Anton Chekhov, produced by M. J. A. Scannell and designed by David Elliott (Oriel). Guests of the societies were Miss Maria Aitken (St. Anne's), Miss Janet Watts (Somerville), Miss Gayle Hallon and Miss Jenny Moss (St. Hugh's) and Miss Angela Strange. Eglesfield Players appearing were Mr. Barry Taylor, Mr. Mark Penfold, Mr. John Gregory, Mr. Alan Ladd and Mr. John Marsilier. Members of the society appearing were I. D. Marter, D. J. Morris, J. J. Fox, N. R. Thorp, T. C. Grove, N. Elliot and R .J. V. Holloway.

M.J.A.S. THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: J. HILL Secretary: P.J. WEBB

MICHAELMAS TERM THE SOCIETY opened the academic year with a pleasantly convivial freshmen's meeting. At the second meeting we enjoyed the insight into r4th century London which E. J. M. Williams the previous President provided in his presidential paper 'Like the Tail from a Cow'. At the other meetings another member of the society, M. Morrow, in his paper 'The Greatest Communist Victory' suggested a reassessment of Franco, while Mr. H. Felling of Queen's College transferred our thoughts from present to past General Elections in his discussion of'Electoral Geography, r885-r9ro'.

HILARY TERM The term's meetings saw a concentration on the r7th and r8th centuries. Dr. G. V. Bennett of N ew College examined political ins and outs in his paper on 'High and Low Church Parties in the reign of Queen Anne' and Mr. Christopher Hill gave us an enlightening account of 'The Position of Women in the r7th century'.

TRINITY TERM There was one meeting this term when E. f M. Williams returned to read his paper entitled 'The Ragged Schools-a Godlike enterprise'. The officers elected for the coming year are: President, P.J. Webb; Secretary, A. Metters.

P.J.W. THE LIDDON SOCIETY THE HALL FELLOWSHIP finally went into liquidation during Michaelmas term. Attendance and enthusiasm had been diminishing for some time and this seemed the most realistic course to take. In its place the Liddon Society was revived, inheriting what was of 43

value in the Fellowship policy. Formerly the Liddon Society had been the Hall theological society: now it is directed towards a broader segment of the Hall, being nothing more specific than a Christian society.

The success of the experiment-for such it has been so far-has been generally encouraging. Attendances have fluctuated but meetings have always given rise to spirited discussion. Talks have considered the Christianity of marriage, welfare and education, the modernisation of the religious communities, the individual problems of the absolute moral standard, and the element of myth in the Gospels. Speakers have included the Rev. Leslie Boulden, Fr. Michael Hollins, the Dean, and Miss Violet Wilkinson of the Education Department.

L.G.M., G.J.C.

THE COSMOGRAPHERS THE cosMOGRAPHERS were no doubt too exhausted by the social side of geography which it is their aim_ to foster. Some were no doubt tired by the study of geography. Whatever the cause, no report was forthcoming from their officers, and their activities both social and intellectual must go unrecorded.

THE CONTEMPORARY ARTS SOCIETY President: J. R. EXTON THIS YEAR the old Contemporary Literature Society started with a new name which led to a much wider range of subjects for speakers to choose.

M. J. Scannell gave the first talk of the year, on Tennessee Williams and at the following meeting J. R. Exton read a paper on the novels of William Golding. A lively discussion followed which was only curtailed by the entry of the Dean who wished to go to bed. In the Hilary term the meetings embraced two of the sister arts. E. D. Bourne played records of Kurt Weill, and put him in context with records of Carl Orff's 'Carmina Burans' and Lionel Bart's 'Maggie May'. Later in term J. L. ;Still gave a talk on the contemporary French cinema. Only one meeting was held in Trinity term when P. J. Day talked on 'Masturbation and the Press' (drawing his title from Richard Hoggart's 'The Uses of Literacy'. The discussion was stimulated by the presence of the Business Manager of Cherwell!

Despite the quality of the papers read, attendance has been disappointing. Perhaps next year's freshmen will not be so cynical, or at least stop complaining about 'Ancient' Oxford when they will not support 'contemporary' Oxford.

THE SCOPE CLUB ONCE AGAIN Oxford cinemas have had the pleasur.e of regular Monday evening visits from the Hall Scope Club. Under the Presidency of Brothers Marsh, Charman and Oliver activities have continued as usual, although Brother Charman did seem rather keen to fine everyone for everything. New mem.bers for the year were Brothers Megill, Zeltonoga, Scott, Bucknal, Barker and Broughton, although Brother Scott, owing to very irregular attendance was very fortunate to maintain his honourable position and there was rather a delay in the appointment of Brothers Megill and Zeltonoga who were unable to answer one or two questions on the 'Mag. 7'.

The scopes for the year were all good with some considerably better than others. On several occasions the Brethren had the pleasure of the company of their Senior Brother, the Bursar. An excellent year's scoping was concluded with an extremely good meal at the Dog House attended by all the Brethren with the Senior Brother as honorary guest.

THE HALL HUMANIST SOCIETY

Chairman: A. A. BRIGDEN Secretary: N. H. BULMER IN MICHAELMAS term there were three meetings. Denis Noble gave a clear exposition of the philosophy behind the use of the scientific method in questions of truth and of rationality in making judgments. The Dean and Lord David Cecil were amongst the members of a Brains Trust on 'Society and the Arts' which provoked a lively meeting. Professor Halsey led a lively discussion on 'The British Idea of a University'.

Dr. Brown, from London University addressed the first meeting of Hilary term on the subject of 'Neurosis and Society' while 'The New Morality' came under scrutiny at a later meeting, being advocated by Canon Rhymes of Southwark.

Attempts were made to arouse some enthusiasm for social work with a somewhat disappointing result. Charity parties were successfully held at various times, obtaining money for charity from the enjoyment oflargenumbers of people.

THE BOAT CLUB

Captain: R . D. CLEGG Secretary: N. McN. JACKSON MICHAELMAS TERM THE YEAR began with an augury which pointed the way the rest of the year was to go; the Hall provided three of the four finalists in the Coxswainless Fours, and the fourth crew failed only by a split second after hitting the bank once or twice. In the second division final the third four beat a Keble four easily, whilst in the senior division S.E.H. I beat S.E.H. II by thirty seconds and set a new record of 6 ruins. 28 sees. for the course. As if to underline our dominance of Oxford rowing this year the pundits of the national press agreed that not only was our second four good enough to win in a normal year, but that they were faster than any of the Cambridge crews. The members of the Hall boats were: I S. R. Morris 2 H. W. Howell 3 R. D. Clegg (Strs.)

Driscoll all performed very creditably, whilst in Senior Trials a total of nine Hall oarsmen were invited by the President to row in the Blue Boat or Isis. They were, T. G. Dixon, D.]. Mills, D . M. P. Barnes,]. K. Wolfenden, S. R. Morris, H. M. Thomas, R. D. Clegg, H. W. Howell, E. S. Trippe.

HILARY TERM The Torpid this year was another of those crews the Hall seems to have had a penchant for producing in this event in recent years; it had that ability to extract maximum speed for minimum effort. So convincingly did they do this that a great many people forecast that they would be toppled from their position at the Head of the River. However, the Torpid came home well outside their distance on all except the Friday night when they struck a buoy in the Gut. The second and third Torpids made one and two bumps respectively.

The Blue Boat and Isis Three Hall men rowed in the Isis crew against Goldie just before the Boat Race proper, and won their race by the substantial margin of seven lengths. These three were J. K. Wolfenden (2), D. M. P. Barnes (5), and M. S. Kennard (stroke).

A further five got their Blues by beating Cambridge by four lengths; this crew was clearly the fastest in the country, which has not always been the case recently. These were S. R. Morris (bow), who was also the secretary of O.U.B.C., D. J. Mills (2), R. D. Clegg (3), H. W. Howell (6), and E. S. Trippe (stroke).

TRINITY TERM By the time Summer Eights came along again the Hall so clearly dominated the river that the main obstacle to success might well have been complacency, but luckily every one realized this and in fact it ¡became something of a spur to further effort. The Hall had a record number of nine eights practising for Eights (which created quite an administrative problem, one boat being shared by four crews), and only the unlucky Rugger Eight failed to get on.

Far,and away the most spectacular day's racing was on Wednesday, when three Hall crews made overbumps, including the second eight's one on Trinity which helped put them into the First Division. The Summer Eight stayed Head with no difficulty at all, finishing at least four lengths clear each night.

Georgiadis Henley Royal Regatta 1965 After Summer Eights the first two crews amalgamated to form a crew for the Regatta, because a number of people had other commitments, and after a week in the wilderness were fortunate enough to secure George Harris as coach. The crew recorded some fast times at Oxford, but nobody really believed them until Marlow Regatta, when it reached the final of the Thames Cup despite very rough rowing.

At Henley the crew improved so rapidly that on the Friday before the racing it was able to beat the University of London Grand Eight by a length over half a mile. In the actual regatta the Hall beat B.R.N.C., Dartmouth, Emmanuel, St. Catherine's, and Jesus, to win the Ladies' Challenge Plate. It also achieved a double not emulated by an Oxford crew since r 88 3, by winning the Visitors'.

THE CRICKET CLUB Captain: R. C. PADFIELD Secretary: J. S. H. NORTH ¡The record tells its own story:Played 24: Won 7 Lost 4 Drawn rn Apart from one or two notable exceptions, teams which looked strong on paper performed indifferently on the field. A. R. Garofall and A. Abbasi were two delightful bats upon whom we depended heavily and who responded splendidly. Abbasi and G. Crossley formed a very solid opening pair, although tending to be rather slowscoring at times! T. J. Machin's lusty hitting brought him many runs, including the only century of the season-105 not out against Oxford City.

R. Truelove was again the mainstay of our opening attack and was a model of accuracy-his 32 wickets cost I I runs each. The Secretary collected 40 wickets but tended to be rather erratic. The fielding was generally moderate but was not helped by the foul weather encountered throughout most of the term.

THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: G. MARSH Secretary: P. HODSON

MICHAELMAS TERlvl OF THE FRIENDLY games played, only three were won, with one drawn, a disappointing record explained partly by the large number of injuries throughout the University and partly by the necessarily experimental nature of the team at this stage of the season. However there was complete success in the Leagues, both of which were won by convincing margins, the Second XV scoring an average of over thirty points in each game.

HILARY TERM The Ist XV played only five friendly games and the 2nd XV only two, but neither team suffered a defeat.

The black spot of the season was, however, Cuppers. In this competition, with once again potentially the strongest side in O xford, we were first held to a draw by Corpus Christi and then beaten o-6 in the replay.

Colours were awarded to: R. Anderson, D. A. Ashworth, A. C. Barker, A. L. Bucknall, D. J. Charman, M. J. Clarke, P. R. Cowles, J. W. Hartley, R. D. Hearn, C.R. Holdsworth, P.R. E. McFarland, K. P. Malone,]. H. North, R. B. Wilson.

THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: S. 0. BURGESS Secretary: J. A. HALL MICHAELMAS TERM THE LEAGUE XI won their competition with six victories in seven matches, clinching the championship with a decisive 8-o defeat of hitherto unbeaten rivals, St. John's. The performance in friendly matches was variable, the highlights being a 4- 2 defeat of the Old Aularians and a creditable 3-3 draw with ten men against Emmanuel College, Cambridge. The second XI were also victorious in their league, losing only one of the matches.

In the Varsity match the Hall was represented by D. F. Baxter and B. A. Hardcastle and in the O .U. Centaurs v. Cambridge University Falcons by A. R. Garofall and A. Pentecost. ¡ 50

HILARY TERM The Cuppers trophy was retained with a thrilling 2-0 victory against Brasenose in the final. All the previous matches were closely fought. In friendly matches 2 were won, 3 drawn and 3 lost. The second XI were unbeaten throughout the term.

Colours were awarded to A. R. Garofall, J. Hill, C. Kinder, D. Lade,J. Mcintyre, D. M. Meredith, A. Pentecost and R . Truelove.

THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: C. B. HARMER Secretary: A. L. Bond ONCE AGAIN there was a considerable difference in the results obtained by the Cuppers XI and the League XL The Cuppers XI reached the final without extending itself and eventually beat University College 2-1 at the third attempt. This avenged our defeat by University College in the final of the Keble six-a-side competition. The League team managed to draw one match and lose the rest and were relegated to the Second Division.

Only three second XI matches were played, all in the Michaelmas Term, two being lost and the other won in very convincing style, 7- l against New College.

R . M. Oliver was capped for England and J. D. Martin, R. P. Meares and P. J. Wilson for Wales.

The Hall had five representatives in the University match-P. J. Wilson, R. P. Meeres, D. A. T. McCammon, R. M. Oliver and R. C. Padfield.

Hall colours were awarded to I. H. Bennett, J. R. Corrie, R. Goodall and T. J. Machin.

THE LAWN TENNIS CLUB Captain: I. H. BENNETT Secretary: R. P. MARDLING THE TENNIS CLUB met with mixed success this season, the main enemy being the weather. It was a considerable problem trying to complete all the fixtures, which is shown by the fact that 51

the semi-fmal and the final of Cuppers were played on successive afternoons right at the end of the eighth week. Largely owing to the efforts of two outstanding freshmen, R. A. Dolman and K. St. J. Wiseman-both awarded their Blues-Cuppers were won, University College providing the stiffest opposition in the semi-final.

The League side was unable to complete its fixtures.

The following have represented the Hall in Cuppers and the League: R. A. Dolman, K. St. J. Wiseman, C.R. Kinder, D. Sudlow, P. C. A. Morrison, P.R. Cowles, M. M. Quail, R. P. Mardling, G. Crossley, R. B. Wilson, R. P. Meeres, D. C. Morton, J. E. Chamberlin and A. M. Pratt.

has again had a successful year although missing many oflast year's experienced athletes.

In Michaelmas term we retained a half-share in the Inter-college Relays Cup, drawing with Wadham. In the Field Events competition, however, we were narrowly defeated by Keble. The Crosscow1try Cup was regained from New College and much of the credit for this must go to D. H. Davies and M. Craven who fmished first and second respectively. Most of the rest of the team came in the first twenty.

There was no competition in Hilary term, the Hall being given a walkover in the first round of Cuppers. In Trinity term little trouble was experienced in the semi-final, and we reached the final along with Jesus, Keble, St. Catherine' s, St. Peter' s and Wadham. ¡This we won by a slender one point margin from St. Catherine's, the result being in doubt until the last event.

Colours were awarded to M. Craven, D. Davies, D. Lade, P. Liversidge and D. Tearle. ' The officers for 1965-6 are: President, R. A. S. Offer; Secretary, P. W. Liversidge. .

THE SQUASH RACKETS CLUB Captain: M. G. M. GROVES Secretary: D. KING-FARLOW THIS HAS BEEN quite a successful season for the club. In Michaelmas term we came second in Division I of the League being beaten by Corpus Christi by one point.

In Hilary term we avenged our defeat in the League by beating Corpus Christi decisively in the semi-final of Cuppers, 4-0. In the Final against a very strong University College side, however, consisting of 3 Blues and 2 Squirrels, we were defeated after a very gallant fight, 5-0.

Colours were awarded to R. Dolman.

D.K.-F. THE BADMINTON CLUB Captain: C. D. STATHAM Secretary: B. J. R. BAILEY IN MICHAELMAS term we beat Keble and drew with St. John's in Division I. A friendly match was played against Westminster College but the six man Hall team, claiming lack of acqua,intance with the surroundings, went down a disastrous 8- l. ' In Hilary term, in the League, we beat Hertford and Christ Church and drew with Brasenose. Although remaining unbeaten in the Le~g ue we finished runners-up to Brasenose who won all but their drawn match with us. In all the League matches the Hall lst pair, M. J. Boylett and C. D. Statham remained unbeaten.

In Cuppers we reached the quarter-final where a close game against St.John's was lost 3-r.

Colours were awarded to B. J. R. Bailey and M. J. Boylett.

The officers for 1965-6 are: Captain and Secretary, M. J. Boylett.

M.J.B. THE SWIMMING CLUB Captain: M. FoxoN THIS HAS NOT been a good year for Hall swimming. It proved impossible to form a team for either the swimming or water-polo League and cuppers events.

In Trinity term the annual race from the 0. U.B.C. to Donnington Bridge was held, as usual under the watchful eye of the Dean.

The sun was shining brightly as he photographed the five compe53

titors at the start. In the absence of A. Cowan, M. Foxon had quite an easy swim to victory, P. Hodson being awarded the tankard for second place. The winner's time of 'under thirteen minutes' beats by over half a minute the record set last year. All the gallant competitors finished the course.

A. Cowan and M. Foxon were awarded half-Blues and A. Cowan was elected Captain.

THE GOLF CLUB Captain: P.H. SwcocK THE HA LL had a new fixture this year in Hilary term against A. T. Barber's side at the Berkshire. In spite of sub-zero temperatures we had a most enjoyable day. We played reasonably well but the veteran campaigners won the day.

In Cuppers we won our first-round match against Keble and put up a good show against Corpus Christi in the second round, losing by only a small margin.

In Trinity term we played our usual matches against the Ladies' Clubs. We lost against Huntercombe and Goring and Streatley, but ended the season on a good note by winning against Temple.

ENDOWMENT FUND AL THO UG H FO R THE MOME NT 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 57

made, and will continue to make, valuable contributions to the realization of the building 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 : J.B.
