ST. EDMUND HALL MAGAZINE Vol. IX, No. 3

OCTOBER 1968 EDITORS 1967-8: Two GHOSTS

DE PERSONIS ET REBUS AULARIBUS IN MEMORIAM IT IS WITH DEEP REGRET that the Magazine records the death of Charles Broadhead on 4 October 1967. One of the most respected and widely loved members of the Hall, he served for many years as a member of the Executive Committee of the Aularian Association, and when it was re-formed as the St. Edmund Hall Association in January 1966 his election as the first President wider the revised constitution was at once a recognition of his signal qualities of leadership and a well merited tribute to his long devotion to the Hall.

Charles Broadhead had a remarkably varied and successful career which was at all stages marked by his vigorous and independent personality. A Yorkshireman by birth, he came up to the Hall from Penistone Grammar School in 1928, read Modem History, and played Football for the First XL After going down he held appointments for several years in grammar schools and technical colleges, proving a stimulating teacher and lecturer and already revealing his qualities as an efficient organizer. Shortly before World War II he turned to personnel management, becoming Staff Manager of Harrods Ltd.; and throughout the war he was Personnel Manager of Vickers Armstrong Ltd. In 1945 he joined the Imperial Tobacco Co. Ltd., Bristol, and from that date onwards held a series of distinguished appointments in the Company and its subsidiaries. He was Personnel Manager of the Company from 1949 to 1957, and Director from 1951; and after a period in Ipswich as Director in charge of Churchmans and in Nottingham as Assistant Managing Director of John Player and Sons, he returned to Bristol to become Chairman of the Distributive Trade Division Board of I.T.C. He was appointed a member of the Group Policy Committee on its l

formation in March 1967, but later that year was compelled to retire on grounds of ill-health.

An aspect of Broadhead's life of which most Aularians were unaware was his wonderful work on behalf of the elderly. He was for ten years Chairman of the Bristol Council of Social Service, and was largely responsible for establishing Bristol Old People's Welfare as a voluntary organization providing the most comprehensive service to old people in the city. Many old people throughout Bristol have cause to be thankful to his foresight, enthusiasm and dynamic energy for setting on its feet what is now a large, expanding and flourishing enterprise.

Charles Broadhead was only 57 when he died. The last couple of years of his life were overshadowed by serious illness, and there is little doubt that a contributory factor was the unsparing way in which he threw himself into his manifold activities. The sympathy of the Hall goes out to his widow and daughters.

THE PRINCIPAL has continued his participation in the Theological Sub-commission on Catholicity and Apostolicity of the World Council of Churches and the Roman Catholic Church, attending its second meeting at Kasteel Oud-Poelgeest, Oegstgeest, near Leiden, in December (at which he contributed a paper), and its third (the last) at Rome over the Whitsun weekend. As a member of the Academic Council of the Ecumenical Institute for Advanced Theological Research, Jerusalem, he joined the meeting of the Executive Committee held at Westminster Abbey in May, and took part in an important meeting of the whole Council in Venice from l to 5 September at which plans for the opening of the Institute in October 1970 and the programme for the first three years were formulated.

On this occasion the Council were the guests of the Municipality of Venice. He preached in Westminster Abbey on Easter Sunday.

THE MAGAZINE

GEORGE WILLIAM SERIES warmly congratulates Dr. G. W. Series on his appointment to a Chair of Physics at the University of Reading.

His departure from Oxford (which strictly will not take place until l April 1969, since he will be on sabbatical leave during Michaelmas and Hilary Terms) will be an immense loss, academically and personally, to the Hall. Appointed Lecturer in Physics in 1953 and Fellow in 1954, he has built up a strong and successful school of

Physics, has given wise and helpful counsel to the Governing Body, and has endeared himself to his colleagues and pupils. His promotion, which incidentally will bring him back to the city where he went to school, will offer him the opportunity and the facilities to develop his research in the fields of atomic physics and light in which he has already made distinguished contributions. The affectionate wishes of the Hall will accompany him, his wife and his family.

FELLOWSHIP IN METALLURGY the Governing Body elected John David Hunt, B.A., Ph.D. (Camb.), to a Fellowship and Tutorship in Metallurgy, to take effect from 1 October 1968. He thus succeeds Dr. J. W. Christian, who on his appointment last year to an ad hominem Chair of Physical Metallurgy ceased to be a Tutorial Fellow and became a Professorial Fellow. Dr. Hunt, who has been University Lecturer in Metallurgy since 1966, was with Bell Telephone Laboratories, New Jersey, U.S.A., from 1963 to 1965, and then spent a year at the Metallurgy Division, A.E.R.E., Harwell. In 1967 he was awarded the Champion Herbert Mathewson Gold Medal of the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers. His research interests include solidification and nucleation phenomena (eutectics and mechanical properties of fibre structures), and he has published a number of learned papers in this field. He is no stranger to the Hall, for he has given valuable assistance with the tuition of men reading metallurgy. The Magazine extends a warm welcome to him in his new capacity as Fellow.

IN TRINITY TERM

ST. EDMUND JUNIOR FELLOWSHIP LAST YEAR the Magazine reported that Mr. Oswyn Murray, St. Edmund Junior Fellow from 1962 to 1967, had been appointed a Senior Research Fellow at the Warburg Institute. Now it has the agreeable duty of congratulating both him on his election, as from Michaelmas Term this year, to a Fellowship at Balliol, and Balliol on securing a Fellow and Tutor in Ancient History who seems marked out to add lustre even to a College with so famous a reputation for classical scholarship. He is also to be congratulated on the award (shared) of the Cromer Greek Prize by the British Academy.

To succeed him as St. Edmund Junior Fellow the Hall has elected Peter Jack Collins, B.A., Senior Scholar of Corpus Christi College, who has been Research Lecturer in Mathematics since 1966. Mr. Collins is engaged in research in the field of pure mathematics known as topology, and the distinction and originality of his work

5

have already been recognized by his being invited to present a paper at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Moscow and to give a seminar in topology at Harwell in 1966, and also to read a paper in 1967 at the Nineteenth British Mathematical Colloquium.

At Corpus he was responsible for formulating plans for the establishment of a Middle Common Room and became the first President of what is now a flourishing M.C.R.; and he has been Chairman of the Committee of Middle Common Room Presidents in the University. Until such time as permanent arrangements have been made for the teaching of Mathematics at the Hall, he will continue as Lecturer and, within the strict limits imposed by his research, will give supervision to men reading the subject.

A NEW PROFESSORSHIP ON 2 JULY Congregation approved the Statute setting up a Chair of Clinical Neurology, the endowment for which has been provided by the National Fund for Research into Poliomyelitis and other Crippling Diseases; and on 24 June Hebdomadal Council agreed that, when established, the new Chair should be allocated to the Hall. This means that the Professor, when elected, will be a Fellow of the Hall and a member of the Governing Body, and that two members of the electoral board (the other five will be the ViceChancellor, two persons nominated by Council and the General Board respectively, and two by the Board of the Faculty of Medicine) will be the Principal and a person appointed by the Governing Body. The Hall did not become eligible to have chairs allocated to it until it became a full College, and so far only one, the Isaac Wolfson Chair of Metallurgy, has been assigned to it. Association with the Chair of Clinical Neurology is particularly welcome because, while the Hall has over many years taken an average of two medical students annually, and these have almost invariably acquitted themselves creditably in the Schools, it has hitherto had no representative of the Faculty of Medicine on its academic staff.

ST. PETER'S AND THE HALL SINCE LAST SUMMER the process of incorporating the church and churchyard of St. Peter-in-the-East with the Hall has been carried several stages further. Following the initial work of clearance reported in the last issue, the churchyard has been transformed into a garden with the assistance of a firm of professional landscape gardeners. With great skill they have laid down a broad, stone-paved terrace along the east wall dividing the churchyard from New

6

College garden, with its terminal point at the bottom of Staircase 41 where a direct entrance from the quadrangle is to be prepared. A second stone-paved path, this time elegantly serpentine, has been made from the porch of the church, where the new library will be, to a point facing the buttery, where another direct entrance is planned. The whole area has been rotorvated, raked and reduced to a fine tilth, grass seed has been sown in the spring, and this has resulted in a healthy and firmly established lawn. During Hilary Term the garden was in regular use by undergraduates and dons for study and sunbathing, tutorials and social recreation.

Meanwhile the interior of the church itself has been completely stripped and a home found for its furnishings. The organ has gone to Bicester Parish Church, and St. Mary's will be taking the altar.

The font cover and pews have been gratefully appropriated by St. Giles' Parish Church, while the bells are being stored by the diocesan guild of bellringers in the confident hope that their music, silenced for so long, will once again be heard. At the same time the opportunity has been taken to carry out an extensive excavation of the floor of the church, including the ancient stairways down to the crypt, and during July and August Mr. D. S. Sturdy, Lecturer in Archaeology at Liverpool University, was in charge of these, assisted by a team of his students. At the time of writing it appears that they have established the original Norman outline of the church, and their finds include a Norman window in the north of the chancel which formerly gave light to the crypt, a fine lJth century stone coffin with remains, and numerous medieval tiles. Dr. Emden has collaborated in the work, and it was his hammer which discovered an interesting Norman door in the north transept and his sharp eye which detected fragments of medieval wall-painting which had been concealed by the organ. A tribute is due to the Revd. ]. S. Reynolds (matric. 1938), who has made a complete transcription of all the floor and wall monuments.

The plan for 1968-69 is to make a start with necessary repairs to the fabric of the church and, if possible, with the installation of the heating, lighting and other adaptations which are required for its conversion to a college library.

THE NEW BUILDINGS has been made with the new buildings since the Magazine reported that in July last year the Forum site had been cleared and preliminary work carried out below ground.

The programme, it has to be admitted, has lagged badly behind schedule, and the contractor's optimistic promise that the job would

IMPRESSIVE PROGRESS

7

be completed by October 1968 has had to be put back a year. Nevertheless, if the Fellows and other resident members are tempted to grind their teeth at the leisurely methods with which the British building industry operates, visitors are pleasurably surprised at the transformation of the scene as the main features of the plan assume identifiable form. The site has been dominated since December by a giant yellow crane which is visible from Magdalen bridge to Carfax, and around its base the walls of the new J.C.R. can be seen rising. On its far side, abutting the Longwall Street houses, the east residential block had reached its fourth storey at the time of writing (July), and only the fifth or penthouse storey remained to be superimposed. The octagonal graduate tower at its north end was developing as an attractive corner feature. On the west side of the site the Wolfson dining hall, with its slender pillars and graceful arches of pale yellow shutter-board, had risen to roof-level; and hopes were high that, once this exceedingly complex and difficult part of the structure had been finished, the residential quarters on top of it would go up reasonably quickly. The single-storey kitchen and service area between the hall and the east block had already been roofed over, and the deck quadrangle of which this is planned as the basis promised to be an even more spacious and generously sunlit area than had been anticipated.

ST. EDMUND'S CHAPEL, DOVER of the chapel of St. Edmund at Dover should be an event of special interest to those members of the Hall who value links with its patron. Ralph Bocking, the Dominican biographer of St. Richard de Wich, bishop of Chichester, St. Edmund's pupil and chancellor, records that on 30 March 1253 St. Richard, in response to a request from the master and brethren of the Maison Dieu in Dover, consecrated a little chapel in their cemetery for the poor and dedicated it to his former master.

It was his last episcopal act, as four days later the bishop died.

After serving several secular uses since the Reformation, this chapel has miraculously survived, encrusted about by more modern buildings. During the German long-range bombardment of Dover in the Second World War some of this encrustation was destroyed and the existence of the chapel disclosed. Fortunately it claimed the attention of the Rev. Father T. E. Tanner, priest in charge of Dover's Roman Catholic community, and it is due to his unremitting efforts that it has escaped demolition in the cause of urban development and now stands, most faithfully restored, as a claimant to the dual distinction of being the smallest church or chapel in England THE RESCUE AND RESTORATION

St. Edmund's Chapel, Dover

and the only one dedicated by one English saint to the memory of another. It was re-consecrated on 27 May by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Southwark, a ceremony attended by the Anglican Bishop of Dover. A booklet descriptive of the chapel and its history can be obtained from the Rev. T. E. Tanner, 109 Maison Dieu Road, Dover, Kent, for the sum of 6s., including postage.

A.B.E. ST. EDMUND'S DAY 1967 is always observed as the annual Feast of the Hall, but this year a special interest, historical and sentimental, surrounded the celebrations owing to its being the inauguration year of the recently established alliance with Fitzwilliam College.

The Master and Steward were guests of honour at the banquet in hall, Dr. Emden was present, and Mr. J. B. Allan represented the old members. The Open Scholars of the Hall were also invited, as well as the J.C.R. and M.C.R. officers and a selection of postgraduate students including several from other universities at home and overseas. A goodly company dined by candlelight, and in proposing the toast 'Floreat Aula' the Principal congratulated the two societies on their sisterly relationship and warmly welcomed the guests from Fitzwilliam College. Although he had not been warned that there might be speeches, the Master responded with adroit eloquence and wit. Early in January the Principal and Dr. Rossotti paid a return visit to Fitzwilliam, making the perilous journey to Cambridge by car over snow and ice to dine at the College's foundation gaudy.

Among other fruits of the alliance there have been occasional visits of Fellows of the Hall to Fitzwilliam, the exchange of postgraduate students moving from one University to the other, and a cricket match between the College XI' s on 6 June.

THE SIXTEENTH OF NOVEMBER

SENIOR SCHOLARS, HONORARY SCHOLARS, ETC. for the first time, the Governing Body decided to offer a small number of Senior Scholarships to recent graduates or prospective graduates. As a result of the competition the following were elected, to take up their awards in Michaelmas Term 1968: R. V. Jackson, in Modem History; J. Prebble, in Jurisprudence. Mr. Jackson has been an Open Scholar of the Hall 1965-68; he won the H. W. C. Davis Prize for History in Michaelmas Term 1966, and last Michaelmas Term was President of the Union. Mr. Prebble is a graduate of Auckland University, N.Z., holding the degrees of B.A. and LLB. He was last year first in the Auckland Law School THIS YEAR,

9

and was awarded the Law prize by the Law Society of Auckland; in addition he was President of the Auckland Students' Association.

In Michaelmas Term 1967, M. H. Butcher, B.A., and J. R. Carruthers, B.A., were elected to Honorary Scholarships. Both had obtained Firsts in their Final Honour Schools (English and Chemistry respectively) in July 1967, and have remained in residence to pursue research.

Two commoners, N. A. Edgar (1967: P.P.P.) and C. T. W. Humfrey (1966 : P.P.E.), have been promoted to the rank of Exhibitioners because of their distinguished academic work.

THE CHAPEL of Michaelmas Term 1967, the Holy Communion has been celebrated on Sundays and weekdays according to the Series II experimental rite. The practice has been adopted of the priest reading the earlier parts of the service from the stalls, with a layman reading the epistle, and standing east of the holy table, facing the people, to conduct the central part. On great festivals and other appropriate occasions there has been an additional celebration in the late evening. Once each term there has been a Roman Catholic celebration before Evensong.

A chapel committee has been formed and meets each term to consider the arrangements for services. Apart from the 'home team', sermons have been preached by The Revd. M. Everitt (Merton College), Canon W. R. F. Browning (Christ Church), the Revd.

R. Faulkner (S.E.H., Vicar of Thame), Dr. J. Packer (Latimer House), the Revd. D. Lane (Pembroke College) and the Revd. D. R. Evans (Magdalen College School). The sacristans were D. F. Easton and T. J. Gorringe.

FROM THE BEGINNING

SOME LEGAL ITEMS THE FIRST of the Francis Bennion Prizes (ÂŁ20 in books) was awarded to R. J. Levine, and the second (ÂŁ10 in books) to R. M. Williams, in Michaelmas Term. The subject prescribed for the essay (Hosea, xiv. 9: 'Whoever is wise, let him understand these things') was: 'Lumley and Gye, Lumley and Wagner, and De Mattos and Gibson'.

The recipients of these awards, which for a number of years have acted as a stimulus to legal studies at the Hall, as well as other Aularians, may care to know, or be reminded, that the generous donor, Mr. F. A. R. Bennion, was Lecturer and Tutor in Jurisprudence from 1951 to 1953 . A graduate himself of Balliol, he served 10

in the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel 1953-64, being seconded both to Pakistan and Ghana to advise on constitutional drafting, and since 1965 has been Secretary, Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, and a Governor of the College of Estate Management.

The Magazine has learned with pleasure that Mr. David C. Jackson, who gave valuable assistance to the Hall as a weekend Law tutor from 1958 to 1963, was in 1965 promoted Sir John Latham Professor of Law at Monash University, Australia. After leaving Oxford in 1963, he went out to Singapore for a year, and in 1964 moved to Monash University as a Senior Lecturer.

TWO NOTABLE REPRINTS

by Principals of the Hall have been reprinted by the Oxford University Press this year. The first is Dr. Edward Moore's (Principal 1864-1913) Studies in Dante, which was first published 1896-1919 and has been out of print since 1934. This work, which is still of fascinating interest to Dante scholars, is in four volumes comprising 1,523 pages (£12 ms. od. the set). The second is Dr. A. B. Emden's classic An Oxford Hall in Medieval Times, first published in 1927 and out of print since 1942. This single volume of 356 pages, with 6 plates, covers in the most exhaustive manner the history of the Hall from the beginnings down to the Composition made between the University and Queen's in 1559 and includes transcriptions of the original texts of numerous documents relating to the canonization of St. Edmund, the medieval Principals, the site of the Hall, etc. As scholars are aware, it not only traces the fortunes of the Hall but throws a great deal of light on the history of the University in the centuries prior to the Reformation. Dr. Emden has enriched the new edition by adding some fresh material. The book should make a special appeal to members of the Hall, and copies can be obtained (the price is remarkably low at 48s.) from any bookseller or from the Oxford University Press Depository, n6 High Street, Oxford.

TWO FAMOUS WORKS

GIFTS THE HALL is grateful to Mr. V. W. Miles (matric. 1921) for presenting a set of past issues of the Hall Magazine.

It also acknowledges with thanks the generosity of the St. Edmund Hall Association in giving £200 to the Scholarship Fund, £60 towards the supplementation of the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund, and £60 to be used at the Principal's discretion for the financing of sporting tours and regattas.

LIBRARY NEWS THE MAGAZINE has received the following report from the Librarian: 'Within the last two years we have re-classified, repaired, re-labelled and generally tidied up all the books in the undergraduates' library, and we have now begun to re-catalogue them. This work, perhaps with the addition of shelf lists, should be completed by the time we move into St. Peter' s Church. We are presently purchasing about IOOO books a year at a cost of over ÂŁ2,000, and we shall completely fill our present premises within 18 months. The church should provide us with a library with 50 reader places and at least 20,000 book spaces. Recent heavy expenditure and the continuing generosity of donors means that we now have a medium.sized college library which is rapidly expanding.

'Some work has also been done on the Old Library. The Aularian Bookshelf has been divided into pre- and post-1900 works, and we have re-catalogued all post-1900 volumes. There are 683 items in this collection representing the work of 201 authors. Work on the pre-1900 collection is planned. The Governing Body has made available ÂŁ200 for the repairing of leather-bound volumes in this library. We have selected a number of particularly notable volumes for repair, but it is a slow and costly job and very large numbers of books are in a poor condition.

'The Librarian would like to record his gratitude for all gifts of books received. The Hall does not have the massive book endowment of many colleges, and even the smallest gift can make an enormous difference in some sections of the library. We have been fortunate this year to receive several large gifts. The Clarence Woodbum Pugh Fund was used to purchase all back volumes of the Selden Society series, and we received large numbers of books from Mrs. H. G. Barnes (190 vols.), Mr. C. W. F. R. Gullick (140 vols.), Mr. V. Ridler (87 vols.), and Dr. R. T. C. Worsley (15 vols. and I I parcels). Others who have presented books are Mr. S. J. Advani, Mr. K. A. Bulgin, Mr. M. S. Child, Mr. N. J. Cross, Dr. A. B. Em.den, Mrs. H. G. Fiedler, and Dr. G. D. Ramsay.

'Finally our thanks are due to our Senior Assistant Librarian, Mr. D. F. M. Horsfield, without whom much of the foregoing would have been impossible.'

CLARENCE WOODBURN PUGH FUND SINCE 1961 THE INCOME of this fund, which was established in 1957 by Mr. R. B. Pugh, then Lecturer in Administrative History, out of a legacy received from his late uncle (whose name it bears), has been expended on the purchase of current and past volumes of 12

the Selden Society. In October 1967 the Governing Body decided to use the larger part of the capital, amonnting to ÂŁ204, on buying the 5l past volumes which the Hall did not possess. As a result the Library now owns a complete set of the volumes so far published in this famous collection, which is valuable to students both of Modern History and ofJurisprudence, and arrangements are in hand to continue with the purchase of new volumes as they come out year by year.

TRANSATLANTIC TRIUMPH offers inevitablv belated, but none the less warm and delighted, congratulations to 'Geoffrey Williams on the magnificent feat of planning, seamanship and endurance which brought him in his 57 foot ketch Sir Thomas Lipton into Newport, Rhode Island, on Thursday 27 Jnne, victorious in the single-handed yacht race across the Atlantic. Since he was usually described in the press as 'the 25 year-old Cornish schoolteacher', only his contemporaries and a few others were aware that he is in fact the G. J. Williams who came up to the Hall from Redruth Grammar School in 1962, read Geography and obtained an excellent Second, and had an outstanding record in sport, particularly Rugby and Athletics. Even as a first-year nndergraduate he was giving proof of many of those qualities which were to contribute so splendidly to his success in the single-handed race, for he was responsible for organizing, and shared to the full in the hazards of, the Oxford University Expedition to Northern Persia in the summer of 1963. Since going down he has been teaching Geography at St. Bernard's School, New York, and deepening his own studies in the subject at the research level; but it has been evident from his letters that all the time he has been planning and preparing for the great enterprise. The press at the time gave ample coverage to the exciting transatlantic contest, and there is no need to repeat the story here. But it is worth setting down that each of the first three yachts in the race to finish beat Eric Tabarly' s 1964 record of 27 days, 3 hours and 56 minutes for the crossing. Geoffrey Williams' s time was 26 days, 20 hours and 32 minutes. The Geography tutors at the Hall take a modest measure of credit for the achievement, for it is clear that in his skilful dealing with tides, winds and currents he has profited by their instruction.

The Hall can take pride in this great feat accomplished by one of its members, and there is little doubt that he will follow it with others.

HALL ARTISTS the St. Edmund Hall Art Committee arranged a highly successful exhibition of work by Hall artists in the Emden Room. The catalogue contained some sixty titles, and the undergraduates who contributed included Hugh Anderson (1st year), John Mabbett (1st year), Rodney Munday (1st year), Nigel Osborne (2nd year), Michael Shaw (3rd year), Richard Sibley (2nd year), Roger Vaughan (4th year), and John Williamson (1st year). The Senior Common Room was not behindhand, being represented by a water-colour by Emeritus Professor W. HumeRothery and a piece of sculpture in elmwood ('Pentheus') by Graham Midgley. There was great diversity of material, and penand-ink sketches, ink-and-crayon drawings, water-colours, lino-cuts, oil paintings, and posters could all be seen-and, if coveted, purchased. Style, treatment, and approach were equally varied, and the viewer moved from a quiet landscape to a symbolic composition of tempestuous or geometrically ordered colour, from the artist's vision of the world as he saw it to the enigmatic statement of his liberated subconscious.

IN THE LAST WEEK OF JANUARY

AMALGAMATED CLUBS c. M . YARDLEY resigned from being Senior Treasurer of Amalgamated Clubs at the end of March. He had held this office for about twelve years, and junior members are grateful to him for his wise counsel and prudent financial supervision over that lengthy period. Mr. A. Marsh, Senior Research Fellow in Industrial Relations, has taken over as his successor.

TRAVEL GRANTS ONCE AGAIN the St. Edmund Hall Association has generously supplemented the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund by a contribution of £60 voted by the Executive Committee at its meeting in June last year. As a result the Governing Body has been able to make grants of between £12 and £20 to the following undergraduates to help them to finance trips to be undertaken in the Long Vacation: R. E. J. Darby (photographic trip along and around the mountain chains of central Europe, extending through Turkey to the Middle East); D. Cottington (visit to the Soviet Union); P. J. Hall (exploration of some less known islands in the Adriatic and Mediterranean); C. T. W. Humfrey (trip by van to the Atlas Mountains); S. Manners and G. N. M. Richardson (extensive study tour of the U .S.A.); J. P. Platt (Oxford Geological Expedition to Finnmark in Arctic Norway).

A BARRIER SURMOUNTED SOME YEARS AGO the Fellows began inviting ladies to dine at the high table on guest-nights, and the intriguing notices 'Ladies' Guest-night-Dressed' and 'Ladies' Guest-night-Undressed' started appearing in the Senior Common Room dinner book. Recently the practice has been extended, and ladies may be observed dining with the dons on almost any evening. Curiously enough, the Junior and Middle Common Rooms proved more conservative, and when they were asked a couple of years ago whether they would welcome the opportunity of offering similar hospitality to the opposite sex, they turned the proposal down. In Trinity Term, however, they decided to have second thoughts, and it was agreed that junior members might invite guests, male or female, but not more than two with each host on any one occasion (space, not fear of a feminine influx, being the limiting factor), to dine in hall, and that there should be occasional guest-nights with a menu calculated to allure the female palate. The Magazine, which attempts to list Aularian events which might interest the historian, notes for the record that the breakthrough was inaugurated on Monday 27 May 1968.

SHELL SHOCK ON 12 DECEMBER 1967 the workmen carrying out the demolition of Culpeper House and the other Queen's College property adjacent to the Principal's Lodgings came across an 18-pound shell ensconced almost immediately under the south wall of the Lodgings. A R.,A.O.C. Bomb Disposal unit, under the command of Captain F. Cantrell, was at once summoned and conveyed the shell, with a police escort, over Magdalen Bridge to waste ground near Donnington Bridge, where (according to the official report in the Oxford MaiQ they exploded it. Captain Cantrell is recorded as stating that it was a World War I type and that 'This shell was what we call "fired", that is to say, the fusing mechanism and safety device had been destroyed. Therefore it was in a dangerous state.' Not unnaturally, good people have been marvelling at the special Providence which must have watched over successive Principals, as well as the undergraduates lodged in the attics above, all these years.

The Magazine is more sceptically inclined, and is disposed to wonder whether perhaps the shell might not be traced to a junk shop in the King's Road, London, and even whether a hand more youthful than that of a First War veteran may not have planted it in its lair.

THE SUMMER DANCE THE COMMITTEE having failed to provide a report, a non-dancing resident has been conscripted to prepare a brief note on the Ball which took place on Friday 21 June. Once again it was held in the quadrangle, which was entirely covered by a vast marquee and adorned with massed flowers, arranged by skilful, albeit masculine, hands; and the dining hall, decorated with fantastic birds floating in mid-air and looking (according to taste) like either vultures or doves of peace, served as a more intimate dancing area. Two bands, Sounds Incorporated and Tuesday's Children, provided the music, and in the intervals Lucas King and his group gave some relief to the ears of the company with their songs. It is interesting to speculate on the reaction of neighbours to the strident brass of the music, but it certainly served to excite the dancers to Terpsichorean ecstacy.

The weather, which had been threatening earlier in the week, remained propitious throughout the night, and to judge by their hollow-eyed, ashen grey faces next day, all the participants seemed to have had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

Neville Williams presided and made a ' "mini" speech meant to be provocative by covering only a portion of its subject'. He rejoiced at the presence of the Principal, now fit after a serious and sapping illness; but one which had earned him a place in the records as the Lady Jane Grey of Vice-Chancellors! He also propounded the Williams plan; 3 : 4 : 5 (money not cuppers). If each Aularian were to give the Hall 3 gns. on taking up a new appointment; 3 gns. on marriage; 4 gns. on the birth of a child; and 5 gns. on the publication of a book (all joyous events, all worthy of commemoration and all, with one possible exception, potentially lucrative), such gifts would, on the evidence of the announcements in the Magazine alone, net some 2,000 gns. a year. He hoped the Executive Committee would devise a practical mechanism for implementing such a scheme; one which would help remedy the Hall's financial problems but not the population/information explosion.

The Principal, like Neville Williams, spoke of his deep regret at the death of Charles Broadhead-and of the Association's good fortune in the succession of Jack Allan as its President.

He confessed he found the first speech 'so mini as indecently to expose its subject', and regaled us with his own infinitely more decorous phrases. 'The Hall is no longer a one-armed-bandit winning the sporting loot of Oxford, but a two-armed ditto getting the academic swag as well'. Vigorous applause. 'Twickers too would have been O.K., but for the lack of a Hall man'. Being fair to Cambridge can be the only decent motive for letting men from other colleges into Varsity sides. Nor was the opportunity to liken the half-clad condition of the new buildings to various states of nature allowed to pass.

Jack Allan spoke briefly of the great honour which he felt had been done him by his election as President of the St. Edmund Hall Association. He thanked Neville Williams for overseeing the organization of the Dinner and Claude Hayes for presiding over the Executive Committee.

The mini speeches were followed by some shamefully mini drinking. Terrified of being trapped all night in Simpson's downstairs bar, some left before it had been officially closed. Gentlemen all, they protested their regret at having to go and their courage and pleasure at having come. Neither matched that of those who stayed.

The Executive Committee met in the afternoon in the Principal' s Lodgings and worked out the Agenda for the A.G.M. to be held before the London Dinner in January 1968. Evensong was held in Chapel and the large company drank sherry on the lawn in the sunshine of a beautiful evening.

A packed Hall, Gallery and Hearne room enjoyed a particularly good meal beneath the gaze of several large and colourful cardboard birds left flying from the dance decorations. The Principal, not only restored to health as we reported last year, but no longer a stranger to the blud reid wine, was in good form as he reviewed the events of the year and looked forward to the exciting but money-needing future. Dr. Emden looked the picture of rude health and made it almost impossible to believe that he approaches his 8oth birthday.

Nearly a hundred old members responded to the toast of 'Floreat Aula'.

The following morning the Dean took a conducted party around the new building site and round St. Peter' s-in-the-East, guiding it around the already extensive buildings and explaining what was still to be done. Those present seemed well satisfied that the money they had already given was being well spent and could see only too clearly how much was needed.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE ESSAY SOCIETY

MICHAELMAS TERM President:

W.

B.

WALKER

THE ANCHORMAN for Hilary Term, Mr. Neil Jackson gave us a valedictory which was a strange blend of Marxism and nostalgia.

For Teddy Hall, academic elitism is not enough; the old hit-or-miss method is more democratic, and produced a more dynamic society.

In Michaelmas, we proved him wrong. For the Society still contains venerable as well as youthful members. The papers revealed a wide and deep spectrum of interests and passions, with a large measure of common enjoyment.

Our artists, if not our eccentrics, were represented by Mr. Frank Hanbidge, dramatist and OUDS actor. In his paper, 'I, Tragedian', he gave us much blank verse, allegedly of his own composition, but sounding suspiciously like the works of the playwright Bacon.

The Muse-I have forgotten which one-favoured us with Mr. Nigel Osborne. Last Michaelmas was the Age of the Emergence of Marshal McLuhan. Mr. Osborne attempted to discuss the validity of that gentleman's concepts, 'visual' and 'audio-tactile', but we soon settled down to a discussion of Eastern and Western music, which is Mr. Osborne's field.

Mr. Little, the father of the society, entertained us with the Perfect Murder.

Mr. Tim Machin, with 'Heah me talkin' to yah' (sic), played us selections of jazz, in an evening which most captivated me.

Mr. Brian O'Dwyer was more profound. But his analysis of World Famine is as valid today, now that the Biafran situation has burst upon us.

Then followed the Dinner Meeting and Mr. Robin Day, Aularian.

He talked, with pith and at length, about himself and Television.

His audience was not captive and closely questioned him about his relations with the Great. He parried the questions, however, with a skill which would have done credit to his chief mentor, Harold Wilson.

It was an evening which Harold Nicolson would have been proud to have attended. The next meeting was my successor's Inaugural.

W.B.W. 42

HILARY TERM 1968 President: R. SIMMONDS DESPITE THE APATHY traditionally expected by any society during the Hilary Term, meetings were, without exception, very well attended. R. M. Ridley 'opened the batting' with an enchanting and entertaining paper 'When we were very young'. J. R. Kilbee' s 'Many Splendoured Thing', on a more serious note, dealt with the differences between Communist and Capitalist Chinese. S. R. Forrest rejected both doctrines, explaining the ways of 'Anarchism'.

Less serious topics were R. M. Williams' 'Lo from the North I Come'-which explains itself-, and P. M. Fickling's essay 'Flights of Fancy', which dealt with hangmen.

The guest at the Dinner Meeting was Mr. Felix Markham, Senior Tutor of Hertford College. He addressed the meeting informally on the subject of his recent book on Oxford. This varied and interesting collection was rounded off by the President's paper 'Go back to Old Kent Road', at the Port and Dessert Meeting.

R.S.

TRINITY TERM President: D. F. EASTON Despite the lure of other, more summery activities, meetings this term have been well attended. Mr. Spencer-Ellis started the term with a denial of the existence of any true meritocracy in England in 'Who's the King of the Castle?', and Mr. Smith followed hot on his tail with corporal punishment in 'Don Leon and the Unbottomed Cherubs'. Mr. Qureshi had some difficulty completing his essay in time, largely as a result of apathy, about which he also chose to write in 'The Difficulties Of . . .'. The Dinner meeting was greatly entertained and stimulated by Dr. R. B. Mitchell's essay on 'Other Universities I Have Infested'. Mr. Montgomery got his 'cut' the following week when he spoke about 'The Lawyer in Society', and the sixth meeting was addressed by Mr. Tereshchuk who attempted to discern a connection between Swinging London and the Permissive Society in 'Sixth Night or What You Will'. At the Port and Dessert meeting the President spoke on fairy tales in his essay 'Go Lightly, for you tread on a couple of bones'. It appeared to be kindly received. The society was adjourned for the long vac., looking forward to meeting in the Michaelmas Term under the magisterial leadership of Mr. Hanbidge.

D.F.E. 43

THE MUSIC SOCIETY President: N. OSBORNE Secretary: B. C. THOMAS THIS YEAR the Music Society was responsible for putting on three public concerts and three 'Happenings'-entertainments of music and poetry devoted to the Renaissance, Medieval and Baroque periods respectively, with music largely on authentic instruments such as recorders, crurnhorns, cornetto, lute, clavichord and others.

The fast of the public concerts, in Michaelmas Term, took place in the University Church, and consisted of Choral works by W eelkes, Redford, Britten, Fricker, Gardner, and Joubert, mainly appropriate to Christmas, interspersed with organ music by Messiaen, played by John Deathridge. A group of fifteenth-century English carols was performed by James Bowman (counter-tenor), Derek Harrison (tenor), and William Robinson (bass).

The Hilary Term concert was perhaps a more ambitious affair, consisting as it did of three large Baroque works-a choral church cantata by]. S. Bach, 'Ich hatte viel Bekiimmernis' (BWV 21), and a solo cantata 'Meine Selle riihmt und preist' (BWV 189), in which the soloist was Nick Thorne (tenor). The other work in the programme was Telemann's Suite in A minor for recorder and strings in which the soloist was Bernard Thomas (recorder). Considering the musical value of the works, attendance at this concert was somewhat disappointing.

The summer concert, traditionally held in the front quad, had to move to the hall owing to heavy rain. The main focus of the concert was Kurt Weill' s school opera 'Der Jasager' based on a Japanese Noh-play and scored for the curious (but effective) combination of flute, clarinet, saxaphone, banjo, pianos (2), harmonium and strings without violas. The rest of the concert consisted of works by Bart6k, Seiber, Faure and Hertber Chapell's 'Daniel Jazz', which seems to have achieved its aim of entertaining the audience.

It is thought by members of the committee that our efforts deserve considerably more support from other members of the college.

Could we appeal for larger audiences?

B.C.T. THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: FRANK HANBIDGE Secretary: DAVID CoTTINGTON THE ONL y DISAPPOINTMENT this year has been the lack of freshmen interested in acting. Productions have not suffered but unless more First Year men are interested than the three who performed 44

for the Hall during the Michaelmas and Trinity Terms, there could be a shortage of actors.

Apart from this, the Society has been quite successful. In the Michaelmas Term the Drama Cuppers entry, Harold Pinter's, 'A Slight Ache', directed by David Cottington, did fairly well, although it did not reach the final. The performance suffered by being the last of an evening of Pinter plays, one of the judges himself remarking that four plays by one author was somewhat trying. Nevertheless, the cast of Charlotte Burns (St. Anne's), Jeremy Rycroft and Michael Mitchell were individually praised.

For the Trinity Term production, Michael Scannell produced 'The Dutch Courtesan', by John Marston. The play was presented in the front quadrangle, the first time that this has happened since before the war. The Society would like to express its thanks to those who enabled this to be so. The production was successful, despite the adverse weather and the consequently small audiences; those who did come to see it are reported to have enjoyed it, and a modest profit was made. The guest artists were: Joanna De Grott (St. Anne's), Flavia Morrison (St. Hugh's), Sue Law, Melanie Fennell, Hilary Breeze (St. Hilda's), Chris Ball (Oriel), Richard Young (New College), and Suman Bery (Magdalen). They were, however, outnumbered by Hall actors.

At the end of the Trinity Term the society gave a short and amusing 'Smoker' for the benefit of the Hall, at which the standard of acting was of the high level which characterised all the productions of this year. The society continues to flourish.

D.C.

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: C. S. HART Secretaries: W. B. WALKER; D. W . ALDER ON THE WHOLE it has been an encouraging year for the Society.

The traumatic start (an attendance of three at the first meeting, including officers) was thankfully an isolated event and attendances henceforth were average or above. True, a slip of the abacus meant that only two meetings were held in Michalemas Term, whilst non-historians, as is their wont, tended to shun meetings. However, there is cause for optimism as we have belatedly been recognised by the Amalgamated Clubs as a non-departmental society. Besides the prestige attached, our finances have been given a much-needed boost!

Mr. P. D. Skelker (St. Catherine's) opened the programme with an interesting talk on '18th Century Society through the Propagan45

dist's Eye'. There followed a long, but lucid, paper by Mr. J. Lively (St. Peter's) comparing the political philosophies of Marx and de Tocqueville.

Hilary Term saw a welcome concentration on more concrete and more topical themes by two speakers from St. Antony's. There was a reasoned criticism of much of British Southern Africa policy entitled, 'Imperial Inertia, 1850-1968' by Professor K. Kirkwood and fascinating case studies of three Political Assassinations, including a denunciation of the Warren Commission's Report by Mr. G. F. Hudson. Mr. G. A. Metters, the ex-President, tried gallantly, with the help of the inevitable mulled claret, to interest us in finding out what history was, how it was, and why it was.

The Annual Dinner in March, with an excellent menu, once again proved the climax of the year's activities. Mr. Christopher Hill, Master of Balliol, turned his back on Marxist themes and declared that Alchohol was the real determinist factor in historical development. It was certainly a considerable determining factor in the liveliness of the ensuing discussion! The Society's thanks are due to all who have helped to keep it afloat, especially the retiring President.

Next year's officers are D. W. Alder (President) and D. Postles (Secretary).

D.W.A.

THE LIDDON SOCIETY President: T. J. GoRINGE Secretary: D . F. EASTON THIS YEAR has been something of a reorientation of the society.

We have heard talks on the Religious Novel, S0ren Kierkegaard, Travels in Turkey, and 17th Cent. Religious Poetry, from Lord David Cecil, Dr. Henry Chadwick, The Principal, and Dame Helen Gardner respectively. The Ghost Talk has now become an annual event and was again given in Trinity Term, this time by the Rev. P. E. Brassell. The great success of this was further increased by the Dean's generosity in allowing us to meet in his room.

At the same time we have indulged in other activities: Compline has been revived and is now held after meetings. Similarly the Thursday afternoon pray-in has come to life once more. In Michaelmas Term we wrote and produced a Nativity Play, which was performed in the University Church. We have held a pilgrimage to Binsey, and have laid on two parties, the former a Christmas Party and the latter a midsummer Goblin Party, both for underprivileged children.

We hope to maintain this style in the future.

THE HUMANISTS SOCIETY Chairman: ALAN BRIGDEN Secretaries: PHILIP BOWER (Michaelmas) FRED HOLROYD (Hilary and Trinity) AFTER A YEAR of underground inactivity, Michaelmas 1967, saw the revivification of the Hall Humanists, with their avowed aim of providing 'a broadly-based forum, chiefly humanist in outlook, for the discussion of philosophical and moral questions'. It was also hoped to raise money for charity through dances-one of the most important functions of the original society (using the now-defunct Cellars)-but this proved impracticable; and without this social function the society found difficulty in attaining an active rhythm.

Nevertheless, all the speakers who visited the Society prompted interesting and worthwhile discussions. Denis Noble, Fellow of Balliol, started off the year with a high-powered discourse on the philosophy of rationalism and the basing thereon of a morality. The rarified atmosphere of that occasion was well balanced by the soundly practical refutation of the necessity of marriage put forward by a prominent Cambridge humanist, Joan Harvey. The final meeting of the Michaelmas Term was a discussion on the inevitability of race conflict, with Kenneth Kirkwood, Professor of Race Relations, as a guest speaker.

The meetings in Hilary Term were notable for the intense interest shown by a tremendously small number of people. The term began with a talk on humanism and politics by David Pollock, chairman of the British Humanist Association's political committee. Roger Ingham of the Institute of Experimental Psychology talked in Somerville-the Society having been exiled from the Emden Room by the advent of some Bacchanalian orgy-to a very select audience, on Industrial Psychology. David Flint, secretary of the Student Humanists Federation, rounded off the term with his own special interpretation of Drugs and the Technology of the Emotions.

With the advent of the examination term, the committee members returned to their underground cells to draw up new strategies.

P.B. A.B. THE BOAT CLUB Captain: N. S. BLACKWELL Hon. Sec.: A. D. HILL Treasurer: A. J. BUTLER MICHAELMAS TERM DESPITE THE FACT that there was no training before term began the Hall again produced three crews for the O.U.B.C. Fours com47

pet1t1on, which was rowed against a heavy stream. In the First Division the Ist IV defeated New College and Keble II, and in the final against Keble I rowed strongly over the second half to win by three seconds, and avenge last year's defeat. In Division II the Second Four defeated Keble III and Trinity II. In the Final, against Trinity I, a steering lapse cost them the race. Hall III defeated St. Peter' s, but failed against Trinity I.

HILARY TERM This year there was no wealth of experienced 1st and 2nd year oarsmen for the college to draw on to form the Ist Torpid. Nevertheless a reasonably competent crew was got together, with a strong novice element. Unfortunately they were unable to get enough time afloat-not boating the full six days a week-and were also short of conditioning. The Hall maintained fifth position in close races on the first two nights, but the station and failing fitness contributed to being overtaken by Worcester, and bumped by New College, on Friday. The Second Torpid fell two places also.

The Hall VIII, noticeably short of Isis colours and rowing with two complete novices, lost to Tyrian B.C. in Senior-Junior VIII's 48

by a length, in a constructive row, gaining valuable experience.

Eights Week rowing was close and exciting. On the first night the Hall closed to within a canvas of Keble; on Thursday the deficit was reduced to four feet. On Friday the Hall was three feet away from the Headship, and on Saturday the Hall were a canvas away from Keble, with Oriel a canvas behind them. There can be no doubt of the Hall's superiority in speed to Keble, and also no doubt about their lack of luck. rst VIII A. D. Hill Bow. C. J. C. Palmer H. G. Nicholls D. H. Anderson N. S.

J. R. Bockstoce and M. S. Kennard rowed for the University Summer VIII, successful at Ghent and Ostend Regattas.

ELECTIONS G. P. Lewis has been elected Captain of Boats for next year, with D. H. Anderson as Secretary and S. J. Maxwell as Treasurer.

The Boat Club would like to thank D. E. Hardy, P. H. Shaw, J. R. Bockstoce, M. S. Kennard and J. K. Wolfenden for their help with coaching-and also bid a fond farewell to Neil Jackson who has been an invaluable asset to the Hall as oarsman, coach, administrator and soothsayer, for so long.

N.S.B.

THE CRICKET CLUB Secretary: P. G. A. MONTGOMERY Captain: A. J. PENTECOST NO DOUBT STUPEFIED by success or celebration the officials of the Cricket Club have failed to send in a report. It has therefore fallen to an anonymous amateur of the game to record that in club matches the most notable performance was a long journey at the end of which it was discovered that, thanks to our secretary, the projected opposition were already playing another side. In the inter-college cup the story was rather different: the opposition were always there, but not for long; and a series of crushing wins culminated in a magnificent final in the Parks. The Hall batted first, were given 49 D

a splendid start by Goldstein (until the attractions of the beer-tent proved too strong), and Garofall, Wilson and others continued to such effect that the astonishing (and record) rate of st runs per over was maintained over the whole sixty overs. New College were brave, but the task (as the saying goes) was beyond them. The Hall bowling and field-playing were admirably handled by Pentecost, who even contributed a few telling overs himself, and by six o'clock New College were all out and about 200 runs short. The Hall had won the cricket cup for the first time in its history.

THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: A. H. MORGAN Secretary: M. W OSSKOW THE CLUB again had a very good season. In Michaelmas Term the League XI had an indifferent start, but by winning their last three games they finished in a respectable position. The team's most commendable victories were over Pembroke and Lincoln, 3-2 and 7-0 respectively.

The Second XI suffered the same poor start to the season as the First XI, but similarly picked up well at the finish of the Michaelmas Term.

In Hilary Term the College Cuppers was retained, for the fifth successive year without much difficulty. St. John's were beaten 1-0 in the final, and the team only conceded two goals throughout the competition, scoring 1 5.

Despite the loss of players to the University and the Centaurs, good performances were also seen in Saturday friendlies, particularly a 4-3 victory over Trinity College, Cambridge. The Hall also gained a notable victory over an Old Aularian side, 3-I. ¡ Hall colours were awarded to: G. Summers, C. Hawksworth, H. Jennings, I. Robertson, M. Goodfellow, J. Milner, and T. Cowlard.

Officials elected for the season 1968-9 are: Captain, I. Robertson; Secretary, M. Goodfellow.

M.G. THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB President: P. A. D. GRIFFITHS Captain: J. M. DENNIS League Captain: C. J.C. PALMER Secretaries: J. D. SHORTRIDGE and C. W. KEMP MICHAELMAS TERM THE LEAGUE SIDE had a very successful term. The League Championship was retained convincingly. Of the sixteen matches played, 50

fifteen were won and the other was lost 3-6. A total of 362 points was scored. The success of the side was due not only to the high level of skill but also to the team-spirit inspired by the enthusiasm of the captain, C. J. C. Palmer. The 2nd XV winning three and losing three did not repeat the success of the previous season.

HILARY TERM Cuppers were again won with a convincing victory over St. Peter's in the final. The hardest match was a fine 14-0 win against Brasenose in the semi-final. As he was unable to play through injury, P. A. D. Griffiths became our coach and J. M. Dennis was elected captain. During the vac. P. R. E. McFarland organized a sevens team which competed in the Murrayfield sevens losing the final; and which reached the quarter-final of the Oxford sevens and lost 8-rn to Rosslyn Park, who were to reach the semi-final in the Twickenham Preliminaries.

Colours were awarded to: N . Badham, J. Cooke, P. Frawley, P. Hathaway, M. Littleton, J. Macintyre, D. O'Regan, E. Osborn, L. Toye.

P.G.F. THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: S. J.

MANNERS

Secretary: J. R.

KILBEE

THIS WAS AGAIN a good year for Hall hockey, although we were knocked out in an early round of Cuppers by one of the eventual finalists, Keble. On the credit side, the club once again won the Division I League and the Keble six-a-side competition. The latter competition was won once again by an all Freshmen side, apart from F. S. Goldstein. During both terms, calls from the University and the Occasionals often weakened the team, but the emergence of a number of Freshmen helped to maintain the high standard expected of Hall hockey teams. This proved invaluable in the Easter term when the League was won outright, the Hall being the only unbeaten side despite a very lucky draw against our main rivals Jesus. The leadership and example of S. J. Manners at centre half was decisive, who apart from holding together the defence, managed via short corners to make himself the leading goal scorer.

Officers for next season are: Captain, P. Ebden; Secretary, C. Gautrey.

THE HILARIANS Captain: B. G. O'DWYER Secretary: D.R. H. O'REGAN ONCE AGAIN throughout the 1967-68 season the Club was disappointed by the 'jackability' of opposing teams although eleven matches managed to get off the ground, and with the shared lst XV buses several away fixtures were played. The most enterprising games were performed with Cambridge opposition, notably Emmanuel Pegasus, providing the Club with a none too usual win. The Old Hilarian proved to be far too skilled, their score being so stupendous that no real record of it was ever kept. Unfortunately, the long-awaited fixture with L.M.H. was cancelled, owing to now compulsory pre-match sex-tests.

The climax of the season came with the Club playing the Cupwinning S.E.H. Soccer Eleven, the former eventually succumbing to superior fitness and ball-play, but being by no means eclipsed, losing by only one goal in a five-four duel.

Officers elected for 1968-69 season are: Captain, D.R. H. O'Regan; Secretary, G. A. D. McPherson.

D.R.H.O'R.

THE ATHLETICS CLUB President: M. C. JOHNS Athletics Secretary: E. C. OSBORN Cross-country Secretary: R. GREY THE ATHLETICS TEAM did not have a very successful season, mainly because of a weakness in field events which was aggravated by the absence of any field events exponents among the freshmen. In events which relied solely on running the team had greater success.

During the cross-country season the Hall came fourth in the league and third in Cuppers. M. C. Johns ran in the Varsity Cross-country Race and D. Perry and A. Clegg ran for the Tortoises. At the end of the season M. Johns was elected Secretary of 0. U. Cross-country Section.

The first track event of the season was relays cuppers, and a splendid team effort enabled us to regain the trophy we had lost the year before to the powerful St. Catherine's team. Next came field events cuppers and our effort was dismal-our third place (with an incomplete team) merely showed other colleges suffered from a greater lack of interest. This weakness in field events proved our undoing in cuppers itself where, for the first time for many years, we failed to reach the final despite the valiant efforts of D. Perry, who won the 440 and 880.

52

In the Varsity Match D. Perry timed his effort superbly to win the 880 in a very fast time considering the appalling conditions. R. Speed competed in the shot and discus and R. Coates in the 440.

Clegg, Johns and O'Regan were selected for the Centipedes match against Alvertone. Colours were awarded to A. D. Clegg and D.R. H. O'Regan.

M.C.J. THE SQUASH CLUB Captain: N. 0. BARAK Secretary: ]. S. LEE AFTER THE PREVIOUS YEAR'S SUCCESS, the squash club had a high reputation to live up to. Unfortunately we only finished equal second to University College in the League. Nevertheless in the Hilary Term we gained our revenge by beating University in a very tense Cuppers Final after we had started disastrously.

The 2nd V also had a very successful season, and it was never a problem to field a team as the Hall abounds with 'social' players.

J.S.L.

THE LAWN TENNIS CLUB Captain: D. M. HUXLEY Secretary: P. M. CRYSTAL LAST SEASON the Hall had another successful innings, although it was not without disappointments. Principal among these was the failure to retain Cuppers for the 4th year in succession. The team lost to a very strong Merton VI in the Semi-Final, and on the day Merton were certainly the better team.

However, the League team, after a shock defeat in the first match to New College, pulled themselves together and won all their remaining matches very convincingly to gain promotion to Division I, having gained promotion to Division II only the previous season.

As in most sports, the ability of the club to obtain much above average replacements when regular team members were unable to play gave the team regular• strength in depth to defeat the other Colleges.

The Principal' s Doubles Competition was won by Gautrey and Murray, who defeated Speed and Brown in the final, thus gaining a just reward for their many hours of practice and consequent improvement. As usual, the competition provided all those who entered it with a great deal of pleasure, and it is a pity that the strict schedule which had to be maintained to ensure the tournament's completion meant that several matches could not be played in time and byes had to be given.

53

Hall Colours were awarded to P. M. Crystal, R. M. Weinberg,

J. Davis and K. MacKenny. For season 1969 P. M . Crystal has been elected Captain and R. M. Weinberg Secretary.

P.M.C. THE BADMINTON CLUB Captain: S. K. OSBORNE HAVING GAINED PROMOTION last season, the team had a successful season in Division I. The IV were perhaps unlucky in losing the vital match against Exeter, thereby finishing runners-up in the league.

The Cuppers matches, however, did go to form and the Hall lost to a strong St. Peter's side in the semi-final.

Those old stalwarts, M. J. Boylett and D. Statham provided a hard core for the team, and were supported by N. Boucher, S. K. Osborne and C. Marmont.

C. Marmont played for Oxford against Cambridge.

C.M. THE TABLE TENNIS CLUB Captain: J. E. DAVIS Secretary: A. J. MIDDLETON SINCE RECOMMENCING TABLE TENNIS in Michaelmas 1966, the Hall has done exceptionally well. Both the first and second teams have won promotion twice, the former being unbeaten. This has been achieved without any home facilities and it reflects the enthusiasm of all members of the teams. I should like to thank them. · With the prospect of facilities being available in the new buildings; I sincerely hope Hall table tertnis will continue to grow in this way.
