OCTOBER 1974

l

EDITOR 1973-74: A. J. WALKER EDITORIAL NOTE The Editor regrets the change from the traditional shape of the Magazine, but assures readers that this has been made necessary by a combination of international standardization and the paper shortage.

THE PRINCIPAL AND FELLOWS ON THE INVITATION of the Vice-Chancellor the Principal is one of the Pro-Vice-Chancellors for the academic year 1974-75. As Chairman of the Curators of the Sheldonian, he had the honour of showing the Theatre to H.M. the Yang Di Pertuan Agong and H.M. the Raja Permaisuri Agong of Malaysia on I I July.

The Vice-Principal (Revd E. G. Midgley), as a special Pro-Proctor, was in the thick of the disciplinary trials, but relieved the routine of his official and academic duties by leading a more orderly riot in the Sheldonian Theatre, where he played the part of Terrae Filius, the academic Lord of Misrule, at a ceremony to mark the restoration of two statues of the Muses on the Clarendon Building. In Hilary Term he preached the Humility Sermon. He has been elected to the English Faculty Board. Dr. D. C. M. Yardley lectured to Government Legal Officers in London, and at the Civil Service College; he gave an address at a meeting of German Judges in London. Mr R. E. Alton has been a member of the English Faculty Board, of the Oxford and Cambridge Joint Board and of the Local Review Committee at Oxford Prison, and Treasurer of the Oxford Authentics; he has examined for the English Honour School, and has engaged in wntroversy in 'The Times Literary Supplement'. Dr R. B. Mitchell was Visiting Professor at the Centre for Medieval Studies, University of Toronto, from 24 February to 5 April 1974¡ While abroad he lectured at Yale University, the Australian National University, and other universities in North l

America and Australia. Professor R. B. Pugh spent part of the winter working at the Folger Shakespeare Library, Washington, D.C. Mr J. C. B. Gosling is to be congratulated on the publication of a study of Plato's thought. Dr D. I. Scargill is to be congratulated on the publication of his book on the Dordogne. Professor J. W. Christian gave the third Hume-Rothery Memorial Lecture in March 1974; in December 1973 he gave several lectures in India. Mr J. P. D. Dunbabin has been elected to the Social Studies Board. Mr N. C. Pollock spent part of the long vacation of 1973 in Kenya doing research on game parks and tourism; he was chairman in 1973-74 of the Geography Honour School Examiners. Professor P. B. Hirsch was presented on 30 November 1973 with a Royal Society medal for contributions to the development of the electron microscope thin film technique. Dr M. S. Child was appointed Acting Professor of Theoretical Chemistry. Mr J. B. Knight, who examined for the Honour School ofP.P.E., was promoted Senior Research Officer of the Institute of Economics and Statistics.

Rear Admiral G. C. Leslie represented the Hall at the centenary celebrations of the Independent Order of Foresters, S. England, Scotland and Wales Jurisdiction. Dr P. J. Collins, when on sabbatical leave in Michaelmas Term 1973, visited several countries, in particular Japan and New Zealand, to give lectures and consult colleagues on a research project. In Hilary Term Professor P. F. Ganz was awarded the Grosskreuz des Verdienstordens der Bundesrepublik Deutschland.

The Magazine congratulates Dr Emden on the publication of A Biographical Register of the University of Oxford A .D. 1511 to 1540.

IN MEMORIAM THE DEATH of Herbert James Hunt on 2 November 1973 brought sadness to all his friends. He was seventy-four when he died, having been born in 1899 at Lichfield and educated there at King Edward VI School and then at Magdalen College. In a full, well-rounded life he taught for four years at Imperial Service College and Durham School, was Tutor and then Fellow in French at the Hall (1927-44) and Professor of French at Royal Holloway College, London (1944-66), and finally became Senior Fellow at the University of Warwick (1966-70).

His major scholarly achievement was in the field of the French novel and epic in the nineteenth century and, more particularly, in his profound assessment of Balzac as man and author. He himself impressed all who knew him as a loyal and kindly man, hospitable and affectionate to his friends, impatient of pretentiousness in any form, with genuine humility behind his robust exterior. The Hall was proud to have him 2

as a Fellow and later an Emeritus Fellow; it was he who laid the foundation of a strong tradition of Modern Languages teaching. The end came swiftly and, it seems, peacefully at his home at Tredington, Warwickshire, where an hour before he had been raking up leaves in his garden. The Principal, Dr Fargher (his successor) and Mr F. H. H. Finch (one of his early pupils) represented the Hall at his funeral at Tredington Parish Church on 7 November, and there was a requiem in the Chapel on 29 November. The sympathy of Aularians goes out to his widow, as to his children (one of them a graduate of the Hall) by his first marriage.

With the death of Sir Douglas Veale on 27 September 1973, at the age of 82, the Hall lost a wise counsellor and an increasingly close friend. A Corpus man with a brilliant career in the Civil Service behind him, he was Registrar of the University from 1930 to 1958, and in that period of unprecedented change and development in the academic world proved one of the outstanding holders of the office.

In January 1938 he was elected a Trustee of the Hall under the 1937 statutes, and remained such until their supersession in February 1957 by the collegiate statutes. As Trustee he interested himself greatly in the Hall, giving invaluable advice and assistance in the early fifties when a charter of incorporation and collegiate status were being sought, and in Trinity Term 1958 was elected an Honorary Fellow in recognition of his services. Although it is not generally known, he was largely responsible for steering the Besse Benefaction to Oxford, and for channelling a substantial portion of it to several less well-endowed Colleges, including the Hall. Administration never quenched his scholarly and humane interests, and in retirement he remained a stimulating companion, frequently dining in hall, impressing all with his multifarious knowledge, wide reading and incisive comments, and proving a doughty opponent on the tennis court.

The Magazine notes with regret the death on 7 April 1974, at the age of 72, of Harold Hugh Keen, Secretary to the Curators of the University Chest from 1946 to 1964. In 1949 he was appointed a Trustee of the Hall, representing the University Chest, under the 1937 statutes, and at once developed an absorbing interest in its affairs.

With his financial experience and meticulous attention to detail he was a most helpful Trustee, pressing his points with a pertinacity which might sometimes be unwelcome but was usually well justified.

An eager, warm-hearted man, he leaves happy memories with those who knew him.

Cyril Albert Jones, Tutorial Fellow and Senior Tutor of Trinity College, died on 2 February 1974¡ He was Lecturer in Spanish at the 3

Hall from 1958 to 1963, when he was obliged to resign owing to his election at Trinity. While his connexion with the Hall was relatively brief, he was an assiduous, incisive tutor who was keenly interested in his pupils and cherished a warm affection for their College. The Hall laments his early passing.

On 26 June 1974, to the genuine sorrow of all who knew him, Arnold C. F. Reeve died in the Royal Berkshire Hospital. Manciple for thirty years, he retired at Easter 1956, living first near Teignmouth, Devon, and then at Frome, Somerset. In summer 1973 he was obliged, owing to deteriorating health, to move into a private residential home at Reading. Here he settled down comfortably and happily for a time, but was overtaken by serious illness involving major operations.

During his years at the Hall he inspired affection and respect in successive generations of Aularians, proving a tower of strength particularly during the war, and adapting himself quietly and successfully to the growth and development of the Hall. He was one of the last Oxford Manciples of the old school, combining the position of chef (a most accomplished and imaginative one) with that of steward of the entire domestic staff His love for, and loyalty to, the Hall were unstinted, and even in his last painful illness he was following the fortunes of the Eight with eager interest.

DEPARTING FELLOWS THE MAGAZINE offers gratitude and affectionate good wishes to three senior Fellows who left the active service of the Hall during the past Long Vacation.

Although he had not yet reached the statutory age for retirement, Dr G. D. Ramsay decided to relinquish his Fellowship in order to devote himself to research and writing. An economic historian of distinction and international recognition, Dr Ramsay has not only been Modern History tutor to successive generations of Aularians since 193 7, but at different times has held the offices of Librarian, Senior Treasurer of Amalgamated Clubs and Vice-Principal. It is interesting to recall that when he joined the Hall it was as Tutor, not Fellow, for the statutes then in operation did not provide for Fellows. He was appointed Fellow by the then Principal in January 1938 in accordance with the statutes approved by the King in Council in December 1937¡ Mr C. F. W. R . Gullick, who had been a Research Fellow (with a period as Acting Bursar) since giving up his Official Fellowship on 3 l December 1969, resigned at the end of Trinity Term in view of

4

the approach of the official retirement age. His services to the Hall as Tutor and then Fellow in Geography, and as Senior Tutor, were recorded in the 1968-69 issue of the Magazine. With Mrs Gullick he is settled at 'Aniwa', Kirk Michael, Isle of Man. In July he was elected Fellow Em.eritus.

Dr D. C. M. Yardley's departure is occasioned by his appointment (on which the Magazine warmly congratulates him) as Barber Professor of Jurisprudence at the University of Birmingham, where he himself was once a distinguished student. Elected in 1953, Dr Yardley was the Hall's first Law Fellow, and in 1964 became the first Proctor to be appointed by the Hall. In his twenty-one years as Fellow he has not only taken a leading part in the tutorial and general life of the College, but has been a prolific author of important legal studies. In Oxford he has been for many years a University member of the City Council, and has also been chairman both of the Thames Valley Rent Tribw1al and of the Oxford National Insurance Local Appeal Tribunal, and President of the Oxford Theatre Guild.

A NEW FELLOW ALASTAIR BLAIR WORDEN, M.A., D.Phil., has been elected to an Official Fellowship in Modern History from l October 1974 in succession to Dr Ramsay. Educated at St Edward's School and Pembroke College (1963-66), where he obtained a First in History, Dr Worden held a Special Studentship at Harvard University in 1966-67, returning to England in the latter year to pursue research in seventeenth-century English history at Pembroke College, Oxford, and then Pembroke College, Cambridge. Since 1972 he has been Fellow, College Lecturer and Director of Studies in History at Selwyn College, Cambridge.

In February this year he published The Rump Parliament (Cambridge University Press), embodying the results of his research. At Selwyn he was Senior Treasurer of the College Dramatic Society, and frequently played hockey for the College; for almost four years he was Senior Treasurer of the C.U. Amateur Dramatic Club. The Magazine offers him its congratulations and best wishes.

LECTURERS HAROLD KENNETH PUSEY, M.A., Fellow of St Cross, an Aularian himself and the senior of the Hall's Lecturers, retired from the position of Lecturer in Zoology at the end of Trinity Term. The Hall offers him sincere thanks for his service over many years. As his successor the Governing Body has appointed Thomas Stainforth Kemp, M.A., 5

Ph.D. (Cantab.), Oriel College, Curator of the Zoological Collections.

In succession to Dr Cummings, Nigel Jonathan Watson Harvey, B.Sc. (Hull), The Queen's College, was appointed Lecturer in Psychology from l October 1973. To both these Lecturers the Magazine extends a warm welcome. It also congratulates Mrs M . A. Twycross, Lecturer for the past three years in English Language, on being appointed Lecturer in English at the University of Lancaster.

NEW STATUTES THE FIRST COLLEGIATE statutes of the Hall were approved by the Queen in Council on 15 February 1957; they formed the Second Schedule attached to the Charter of Incorporation then granted. Since then almost all, probably all, colleges have drastically revised their statutes in order to take account of changing practice throughout the University, and the need to undertake a similar revision of the Hall's statutes was apparent as long ago as 1970. As a result of careful and protracted work completely fresh statutes were framed and, after the consent of the University had been obtained, were submitted to the Privy Council in August 1973· The Queen being at the time in Australia, these were approved by the Counsellors of State (the Queen Mother and the Princess Margaret) in Council on 20 February 1974· Early this year two further statutes, one providing junior members with the right to a fair hearing when serious disciplinary action against them is being considered, were submitted and were approved by the Queen in Council on 29 May 1974· DINING RIGHTS OF M.A.'s the Governing Body took a decision which should be of interest to many old members. This was to the effect that members of the Hall who have taken their M.A. degree should have the right to dine, at their own expense, at the high table up to twice a year.

This should apply to any day of the week in Full Term except Saturday, when high table dinner is not normally served, or a day on which a Gaudy or other special function is being held; it should be a condition that at least one Fellow would be dining. Any old member of Master's status wishing to exercise this right is required, as a matter of practical convenience but also to avoid disappointment, to complete arrangements with the Domestic Bursar at least forty-eight hours before he proposes to dine; he may also ask for guest-room accommodation for the night. This decision clarifies a matter on which there has been considerable uncertainty, and the Principal and Fellows IN TRINITY TERM

6

hope that Aularian M.A.'s will take advantage of it, and look forward to welcoming them.

COMPLETION APPEAL went to press in early August, contributions to the Completion Appeal from old members, parents and well-wishers (by gifts, banker's orders and deeds of covenant) amow1ted to approximately £ ro5,ooo. As the times are exceptionally difficult, this may be considered a creditable total so far, and brings the Hall within striking distance of the target of £125,000 which it set itself to raise from individual subscribers. The first Progress Report was circulated in the spring, and listed the names of contributors up to 4 March 1974; further Progress Reports will contain the names of the many who subscribed after that date. The heartfelt gratitude of the Hall goes out to all who have generously assisted it in this great cooperative enterprise. There is still a gap of £20,000 to be bridged before the target is reached, but it is likely that this will be somewhat narrowed by the time the Magazine is posted to readers. The Appeal, it should be emphasized, is still open, and contributions will be warmly welcomed from the many Aularians who have not so far subscribed. The Principal or the Domestic Bursar will gladly send a form of covenant to anyone who has mislaid the one originally sent to him.

Meanwhile the building goes up apace. In August the north wing was in sight of completion, with services installed and the painting of the rooms begun. Although in such matters fingers must be kept crossed, it was expected that its eighteen study-bedrooms would be in occupation at the beginning of Michaelmas Term. The High Street block has been slower, but a completion date in time for Hilary Term seemed probable. Viewed from the High it leaves the impression of a highly successful design.

GRANTS OF ÂŁ40

THE CHAPEL CARDINAL SUENENS, Primate of Belgiwn, who had spent the night in the Principal's Lodgings and preached the University Sermon at ro.15 a.m.,said Mass in the Chapel at ll.45 a.m.on Sunday 20 October.

After the gospel he gave a short homily. Visiting preachers were the Revd C. J. Bennetts (Oxford Pastorate) and Bishop Colin Winter in Michaelmas Term, the Revd J. Lewis (Chaplain of Graduates) and Dr Morna Hooker in Hilary Term, and the Revd J. C. H. Wilson, 9

Vicar of Kirk Ella, Yorks., and two Aularians, the Revd Professor ]. McManners and the Revd Selwyn Cox, in Trinity Term. Instead of the procession on Whitsunday evening, there was a sung cucharist with a commemoration of the Translation of St Edmund. On Corpus Christi and St Peter' s Day the Holy Communion was said in the crypt of St Peter-in-the-East. The sacristans were P. Betton and A. Sloane.

THE COLLEGE COMMITTEE THE COMMITTEE met regularly twice a term throughout the year. In addition to the Presidents and the Stewards of the ].C.R. and the M.C.R., the junior members were G. Bull, P.]. Fouracre and A. A. Radcliffe in Michaelmas and Hilary Terms, and R. Gretton, ]. F. McGlashan and G. ]. Price in Trinity Term. A recurring item of discussion between the Committee and the Governing Body was the planning of the Summer Ball, the object being to reduce noise and disruption to a minimum and to ensure the swift clearance of mess.

The whole question of visiting hours came under review, and the solution adopted, with the agreement of the Governing Body, was that visiting hours should be abolished, it being understood that guests could stay for one night only and that visitors causing disturbance could be required to leave. In Trinity Term the Committee considered and approved revised fees and charges. The Governing Body also sought its views on the question, submitted by Hebdomadal Council, whether Colleges favoured the establishment of some form of Central Student Union, and (since no University finance would be available) how much capital and recurrent financial provision, including contributions from ].C.R. and M.C.R. income, Colleges would be prepared to make. The general view of the Committee was that, despite the desirability of some form of C.S.U., the ].C.R. and M.C.R. were unable to consider a diversion to other uses of their already severely restricted funds.

A FINE BINDING THE HALL'S Book of Benefactors, bound c. 1685 by Roger Bartlett, was among the 126 items shown, by special request, at the British Museum's exhibition 'English Restoration Bookbindings; Samuel Mearne and his Contemporaries', held in the King's Library from May to September 1974¡ (In 1968 it was number 226 in the exhibition 'Fine Bindings 1500-1700 from Oxford Libraries', held at the Bodleian.) In June the Library was presented with a copy of the splendid catalogue raisonne of the exhibition, prepared by Howard M. Nixon and containing IO

full-page photographs of all the exhibits, the Book of Benefactors being number II8 .

DIRECTORY ON COMPUTER THE DIRECTORY was last year put on a computer, and the first computer-prepared Directory was sent to all old members whose addresses were known. Like all computer programmes, this one will take time to perfect; the first edition inevitably contains many small and possibly some large mistakes. It is intended to produce a supplement in due course, and in this only addresses will be corrected. Later, when the next full Directory is printed, it will include all other corrections to which attention has been drawn.

The programme is a versatile one, and its capabilities may be of use to old members, as groups or as individuals. For example, if someone should wish to obtain a list of the addresses of other Aularians either in a particular geographical area or by matriculation dates, or by a combination of both, it would be easy and comparatively inexpensive to get a print-out of the information required. Any Aularian needing information of this type, or having other comments or queries about the computer programme, should write to the Domestic Bursar, who will be delighted to help.

AFTER THIRTY YEARS IT SHOULD BE recorded that, on the initiative of Canon George T. Brett (Captain of Boats 1934), a small party gathered in the Hearne Room on the last evening of Eights to commemorate the 3oth anniversary of the Ann.us mirabilis when the two Hall Eights made 14 bumps in six nights, breaking all University precedents. There met in the Hearne Room Canon Brett, his wife and a daughter, Andrew M. Urquhart and his wife, George S. Keen, and the Hall's memorable coach, D . Stacey Coleman, then Fellow of Queen's, and A.B.E. THE SUMMER BALL 1974 DESPITE THE RISING cost of first-class air fares, this year's Ball committee has still managed to take its holiday in the West Indies. They would like to thank all those who bought Ball tickets and made this possible.

With the remaining funds, they surpassed last year's great success, providing music, poetry, cabaret, excellent food and wine, and an amiable atmosphere from ten until well after dawn.

Music was provided by such groups as Stackridge, Mungo Jerry, and the ever popular Shakin' Stevens and the Sunsets, as well as II

Jazz bands, pianists, and even a bagpiper. A special attraction this year was Roger McGough's poetry, which was enjoyed by all.

The committee would like to take this opportunity to thank the innumerable Hall members without whose invaluable help the Ball would not have been such a success.

THE LONDON DINNER 1974 was held at its usual venue (Simpson's-in-theStrand) on Tuesday 8 January. Numbers were down slightly on previous years, due no doubt to the railway drivers' industrial action with which the dinner happened to coincide. As a consequence there were only some 78 Aularians present to enjoy Simpson's roast chicken and, more memorably, the speeches of the President of the Association, Sir Claude Hayes, and the Association's guest, the Principal.

In his speech proposing the toast of 'Floreat Aula', Sir Claude noted that 1973 had been an active year for the Association. Another successful Garden Party had been held at the Hall in June, and the longawaited new edition of the Directory had been published. He congratulated Sir Denis Wright on his election to succeed him as~President of the Association, and conveyed to all present the greetings of Dr Emden, who was not able to attend the dinner this year.

In his reply, the Principal congratulated Sir Claude on his muchdeserved knighthood, and Sir Denis on his election. He was glad to be THE LONDON DINNER

15

able to report that the Hall was in good shape despite the current economic and industrial troubles. The intake for 1974/75 promised to be a good one. Owing to a self-denying ordinance imposed by the University, however, the Hall would not be able to admit female undergraduates for at least another seven years. The new buildings were progressing satisfactorily. He was sure that, when completed, they would constitute a wonderful addition of which all Aulariansand especially those who had contributed so generously towards this cost-would be justly proud.

After the Principal's speech Sir Denis Wright rose to thank the Association for electing him their new President. He looked forward to his three years ¡ of office, and hoped that he would successfully maintain the high standards set by Sir Claude.

The following attended the Dinner, in addition to the Principal as Guest: 1922 C. N. Wardle-Harpur; l924J. B. Allan, D . K. Daniels ; 1927 B. M. Forrest; 1929 D. Wright; 1930 C. J. Hayes, E. L.

MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the St Edmund Hall Association was held at Simpson's-in-the-Strand, London, on Tuesday, 8 January 1974, at 6 p.m. Sir Claude Hayes (the President) was in the Chair.

The Minutes of the previous A.G.M., which had been published in the Magazine, were taken as read. They were duly approved and signed.

The President stated that the Allocations had been made-viz. £200 to the Scholarship Fund, £80 to the Graham_Hamilton Travel Fund and £ roo to the Directory Fund. He also referred to the Garden Party held at the Hall in June, 1973, which had been deemed by all a great success.

The Hon. Treasurer gave a resume of the Accounts as published in the Magazine, and pointed out that income was slightly down whilst expenditure had shown a marked increase. This increase was largely the result of the payment of £225 as a Computer Entry Fee (largely to be used for the publication of the Hall Directory) and of the continuing rising cost of the Magazine. Assets, too, were just over £200 down on the previous year. The Hall, however, had agreed to pay half the cost of future Magazines; on top of this, Composition Fees were now being remitted to the Association at the start of each term and were to be increased to £r.50 at the start of Michaelmas Term, 1974· It was anticipated that this should considerably strengthen the Association's financial position, and by extension, enable it to provide added support to the Hall. The Treasurer also pointed out that this was the first increase in fees since as far back as he had been able to trace. The Accow1ts were agreed unanimously.

The President referred briefly to the Allocations made to the Hall.

Although the sums of £200 and £80 were all that could be afforded under present circumstances, they were of continuing value to the Hall and there was every hope of being able to increase them in the future.

Moving to the election of a new President, the Chairman proposed the name of Sir Denis Wright. This was accepted with acclaim. Sir Denis thanked the Meeting for this honour, and on behalf of the Association, congratulated the Chairman on having been made a knight in the New Year Honours.

The retiring m embers of the Executive Committee were all prepared to stand for a further term of office and were duly re-elected .

They were D. K. Daniels, H. A. F. Radley, R. J. L. Breese, I. R. K. Rae, and J. D. Shortridge. In addition, the Hon. Treasurer, Hon. THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Auditor and Hon. Secretary were all unanimously re-elected.

It was reported that the Careers Advice Service had been well received by the undergraduates and was working well.

The question of a later starting time for the A.G.M. was raised once again as it was felt that more people might then be able to attend. It was agreed to try this at the next A.G.M., possibly starting at 6.15.

There being no other business, the meeting closed at 6.30 p.m.

*Fellow

After four days of rain the sun shone warmly for the Garden Party, now firmly established as an annual event in the Hall calendar, and the Reunion followed on one of those balmy June evenings that only Oxford can produce. The Principal, Dr Emden and no fewer than fifteen of the Fellows were present to welcome l l 8 old members to the dinner.

In his speech the Principal congratulated Sir Claude Hayes, representing the Association in the unavoidable absence of Sir Denis Wright, and also spoke of his pleasure at the presence of Honorary Fellow, Professor Wilson Knight. Speaking of the life of the Hall, he drew attention to the forthcoming retirement of Dr Ramsay and Mr Gullick and of Dr Yardley' s move to the Barber Chair of Law at Birmingham. Other changes in the Governing Body included the appointment of the Hall's first Fellow in Medicine. In the sporting sphere the year had been notable for the renaissance of the Boat Club which had achieved three bumps in the summer Eights. The Principal al~o drew attention to the role of undergraduates on College comm1~tees and the generally constructive attitude which they showed to their new responsibilities. He assured old members that the reputation of the .Hall as a friendly college was being maintained.

In his reply, Sir Claude Hayes thanked the Principal and Fellows for 19

the Garden Party, but the most tumultuous applause of the evening was heard when Dr Emden was prevailed upon to make his now classic one-sentence speech.

THE DEATHS

OBITUARIES of the following members of the Hall have been noted

with regret: Arthur Baxter, B.A., who read Modern History at the Hall 1947-50, died on 22 December 1973 . He was a schoolmaster by profession. He was 48 when he died.

The Revd Canon William Robert Moffett C-:haplin, M.A., commoner 1921-24, died on 15 October 1973, aged 70. He was Captain of Boats 1922-23, and rowed in Trials in 1922 and 1923. Trained for

c

33

the ministry at Ely, he served his title at St James', Barrow in Furness, and from 1931 to 1935 was Minor Canon and Master of the Choir School, Carlisle Cathedral. After being Rector of St Peter's, Northampton, with Upton 1935-45, he was Vicar successively of Haverthwaite (1945-52), St Lawrence, Appleby (1952-53), Appleby with Murton and Hilton (1953-60), St John, Workington (1960-66), and Old with New Hutton (1966-69). He was Hon. Canon of Carlisle 1952-69, and Canon Emeritus thereafter.

Alexander Thomas Gaydon, commoner 1948-52, died after a prolonged illness on 2 April 1974, aged 44. His premature death ended a career that might have taken him far had he not been dogged by illhealth, though other factors outside his control also played their part in denying him the first class degree that would have matched his intellectual qualities. However discouraging the circumstances, Alec Gaydon never lacked pluck and resilience. After going down, he trained as a professional archivist. He spent some years as Assistant Archivist in the Bedfordshire R ecord Office and then as Senior Assistant Archivist in the Gloucestershire Records Office. His edition of The Bedfordshire Taxation Rolls fo r 1297 was published in 1959¡ In 1960 he was appointed County Editor of the Shropshire Victoria County History.

In this exacting post, which involved on the one hand a maintenance of strict standards of scholarship and on the other a conciliatory regard for local interests, he proved by general consent remarkably successful.

Two volumes of the Shropshire Victoria County History were published under his editorship: he was additionally a major contributor to each. Before his health broke down, he was for a while Editor of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. (G.D.R.) The R evd Horace Hugh Hook, M.A., commoner 1926-29, died suddenly on 25 April 1973, aged 64. After training at Sarum Theological College, he was ordained in Gloucester Cathedral and served as curate of Coleford with Staunton 193 l-34 and of St Mary de Lode, Gloucester, 1934-37. After being Priest-in-Charge of Bolventor and Temple (1937-39), he was Rector of Wyck Rissington (1939-45) and of Little Rissington (1941-45) . He was then Vicar of Newland with Redbrook (1945-49), Sandford St Martin (1954-59), and from 1959 Vicar of Greenham, near Newbury, Berks.

David Murray John, O.B.E., B.A. , died on 24 May 1974, aged 66.

He matriculated in 1926 and read Modern History under Dr Emden.

He qualified as a solicitor, and, after three and a half years at Halifax 34

and four at Peterborough (as Assistant Solicitor to the City Corporation), became Deputy Town Clerk of Swindon in 1937 and Town Clerk in 193 8. He remained Town Clerk until retirement last March.

Owing to the declining fortunes of the railways Swindon, then a town of only one industry, was threatened with a severe loss of prosperity and population after the Second World War. John persuaded the corporation to reverse both tendencies by attracting both new industries and overspill population from London. He was keenly interested in making the town more culturally sufficient. He promoted the building of an arts centre and the foundation of a museum, and was highly influential in establishing and managing a fund to enable the Victoria History of Wiltshire to be written. His whole life was centred upon the borough, of which he was made an honorary freeman.

(R.B.P.) Donald Canmore Malcom, commoner 1964-66, died in Paris on 5 March 1971, aged 8L A graduate of Yale, he served in World War I first in the British and then in the U.S. Air Force, being promoted to the rank of Captain in the latter. After that war he was active in the international merchant banking business in New York, Canada, France, England and Italy, and was created Cavaliere del'Ordine della Corona d'Italia. In World War II he returned to the United States and engaged in the production of war material, especially for the Air Force. After the war he went back to the international merchant banking business, where he again played a leading role, particularly in Bermuda. In 1964, although over 70, he decided to resume student life, and spent two happy and profitable years at the Hall, attending lectures in economics and consulting professors and tutors in that field. With his wife, Princess Alexandra Troubetzkoy, he was the first to occupy 27 Capel Close, which had just become the Hall's property.

Royce Douglas Paine, who was a Royal Navy Probationer at the Hall in the spring and summer of 1945, was killed in a motor-car accident on 4 July 1970. When he left the Royal Navy, he was keen to return to the Hall, but was obliged to take over the management of his father's farm at Lydd, Kent. In 1962 he gave this up and started a firm of air and travel brokers and consultants, and was a director of this until his death.

Derek Alan Perry, M.A., exhibitioner 1965-68, died as a result of an electric shock at a hotel in Tunisia while on his honeymoon with his wife on I I August 1973, aged 27. At the Hall he read Law, obtaining 35

a good Second, and was active and successful at Athletics, being captain of the Athletics Club, Captain of O.U. Centipedes, and often representing the University and the Achilles Club. On going down he had a brief spell in the hospital service, and became an Assistant Officer in the University Surveyor's office. In November 1971 he was appointed Assistant Registrar in the office of the General Board of the University of Cambridge. In 1972 he incorporated as a M.A. of Cambridge through the Hall's sister college, Fitzwilliam. In reporting his death the Secretary General of the Faculties, Cambridge, commented on 'the considerable hole' which his loss has created in his office, and how difficult it would be to find a replacement of his calibre.

Jonathan Rashleigh, commoner 1935-38, died on 9 February 1970, aged 56. He won his colours for hockey and cricket, and was elected to the Greyhounds in 1938. A life-long bachelor, he was in ill-health for many years before his death, but maintained his keen interest in sport.

Paul James Sandison, B.A., exhibitioner 1924-27, died on 16 February 1974, aged 67. He read Modern History, obtaining a Second, and was both Editor of the Magazine (1926) and President of the Debating Society (M.T. 1926). On going down he joined the Sudan Political Service, and in World War II fought with the Sudan Defence Force in the Egyptian desert. He subsequently returned to the Sudan to become Commissioner of Labour. When the Sudan gained independence, he settled in Dorset and took up pig-farming. In recent years he was deeply involved with the National Farmers' Union, serving on various committees. Shortly before his death he had retired to Dorchester.

The Revd Canon John Colin Stephenson, M.A., commoner 193437, died on 15 August 1973, aged 56. An ardent Anglo-Catholic all his life, he had learned the faith at the Brighton churches, and on leaving the Hall he naturally went to Chichester Theological College. Made deacon in 1939, he spent three years in the vast, difficult parish of SS. Mary and John, Cowley, and in 1942 became a naval chaplain, serving first in Portsmouth Barracks and then at the Royal Marine Barracks, Eastney, before being posted to the newly commissioned cruiser H.M.S. Ceylon. He stayed with her till the end of the war, being awarded the M.B.E. for his service in the Far East. While a chaplain he suffered a severe injury when a fall in the jungle led to the amputation of a leg, and was thereafter seldom out of pain. In 1948 he was back in Oxford as Vicar of St Mary Magdalen, where he exercised a 36

remarkable ministry on uncompromisingly Anglo-Catholic lines. He was also Actors' Church Union chaplain to the Oxford theatresvery appropriately, for as an undergraduate he had been a distinguished actor for O.U.D.S. He was already a Guardian of the shrine of the Blessed Virgin at Walsingham, and in 1959 he was elected as permanent resident Administrator. Under his guidance Walsingham became a magnetic spiritual centre, renowned for its flamboyant devotion. He retired in 1968, but continued his association with Walsingham as Master of the College of Guardians. A splendid, direct and natural preacher, a marvellously humorous raconteur, he wrote a valuable history of the shrine of our Lady in Walsingham Way (1970), and also published a lighter, though revealing, autobiography, Merrily on High (1972). He was an honorary canon of Norwich.

Martin Joseph Thorne, commoner 1970-73, died on 25 October 1973 , aged 2I. Coming up from Shaftesbury Grammar School, he had a very full time at the Hall, obtaining a good Second in Physics, being a successful Captain of Boats 1971-72, playing occasionally for the First XV, rowing in University Trials, and being in 1970 a member of the University Orchestral Ensemble. In July 1973 he went out to Australia to train as a field engineer, lagging oil wells; and then went on to Singapore and so to Brunei. After a few days there he was drowned in a swimming pool while bathing in the evening.

John Frederick Wearing, M.A., comm.oner 1940-41 and 1946-48, died on 24 March 1974, aged 5i. He served in the R.A.F. during the war, and on going down entered the Colonial Office as Assistant Principal. In 1949 he moved to the Foreign Office, and was appointed 2nd Secretary, British Legation, Helsinki, 1950; H.M. Vice-Consul, Amsterdam, 1953; H.M. Consul, Hanover, 1955; lst Secretary, British Embassy, Djakarta, 1959; lst Secretary, U.K. Delegation to O.E.C.D., Paris, 1963; Counsellor and Head of the Economic General Department, Commonwealth Office, 1966; U.K. Alternate Governor, International Atomic Energy Agency, 1967-69, and U.K. Permanent Representative to the U.N.

Diplomatic Service in 1972, but was re-employed in an unestablished capacity in the India Office Library and Records since 1973¡ William Cyril Webber, M.A., commoner 1923-26, died in Johannesburg in November 1969. At that time he was petrochemicals 37

consultant to African Explosives and Chemical Industries in that city.

He was aged 64.

The Revd Vaughan McLean Wilford, M.A., commoner 1938-39, died on 20 October 1973, aged 54. After serving with the Royal Artillery during the war, he emigrated to Canada and taught for a time at Lakefield Preparatory School, Ontario. He then studied at Bishop's University, Lennoxville, Quebec, obtaining his L.S.T., and in June 1955 was made deacon by the Archbishop of Quebec. For two years he was Incumbent of the Mission of Fitch Bay, Georgeville and Tomifobia, in the diocese of Quebec, returning to England in 1958 to become Priest-in-charge of the district church of St Saviour, Reading.

(1964-65), Incumbent of Indian Head (1965-67), of Big Country (1967-68), and of Caster (1968-70). From 1970 he was Rector of Gunhouse with Burringham, Lincoln diocese.

The First Torpid gained four bumps, and the First VIII three-it would have gained four had it not been for a startling reversal in form by the boat just ahead. The performance of the other crews, in Torpids as in Eights, maintained the high standards of the First Boats, every boat after the first ending up at or near the top of its order. The Fifth VIII ('Vikings'), which made four bumps before Dennington Bridge, now has only three Fourth VIII' s above it. Much hard work will have to be done next year if these positions are to be preserved and consolidated. Once again special thanks for these successes are due to Nigel Blackwell and John Colton. As a result of Nigel Blackwell's coaching the First Torpid has piled up eight bumps in two years, while John Colton coached not only the First VIII but the Second and Third VIII's also . He went on to do sterling work for the University as Captain of Isis.

THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: J. R. ISBISTER (Mich. T.); B. D. MEAD (Hil. T.) Secretary: A. W. RILEY Treasurer: A. J. WALKER THIS YEAR once again the Club welcomed several keen freshmen, and this enabled it to field two strong XV' s each week of both terms. The First XV, after a poor start, won four of their League games and drew with Jesus. Outstanding results were the defeat ofWorcester by 45-16 and of Hertford by 34-9. The XV were runners-up in the League. In Cuppers the Hall lost the final after nine years of unbroken successes; 39

it is earnestly hoped that this is only a temporary lapse. The all-round strength of the Club was reflected in the fine season ¡ enjoyed by the Second XV, which once again, w1der the leadership of D. L. Robertson, narrowly missed promotion to the 2nd Division, as well as beating the First XV' s of three colleges. They remain the highest placed Second XV in the League.

THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: P. E. KENT Secretary: F. J. ROBICHAUX THE DECLINE in the Hall's prowess at Football, noted last year, was, regrettably, continued this year, and both the First XI and the Second XI failed to distinguish them.selves to any great extent throughout the season either in the League or in Cuppers. To offset these disappointments was the success of three Hall men in gaining Blues: P. E. Kent, B. Thomas, and M. J. Davies. B. Thomas (a freshman 1973) has the further distinction of captaining the full Blue side next season.

It is greatly to be hoped that this dismal record, the by-product to some extent of apathy, will be reversed next season, for ¡ the serious loss of Cuppers for two successive years must be rectified.

THE HOCKEY CLUB Cuppers Captain: A. A. RADCLIFFE Captain and Secretary: A. W. AYRES ON THE FEW occasions the Hall put out a full team this season it was evident that there was great potential in the side. It was such a team that beat Pembroke in one of the early row1ds of Cuppers by 5-0, and that was very unfortunate, in a later round, to lose 2-3 to Hertford.

It is hoped that this season's players will form the nucleus of next year's team and will not be attracted away by the apparently greener fields of Rugby and Football. Hockey in the University as a whole seems to have increased in popularity in comparison with previous years, and one would like to think that the same will occur in the Hall.

THE CRICKET CLUB Cuppers Captain: P. E. KENT Secretary: D. J. HAMMOND AFTER REACHING the second round of Cuppers, the Hall was knocked out by New College. Nevertheless the Club fared better in the many friendly games it played throughout the season, such as against St Edward's School (lost: Midgley 40); Adastral (drawn: Hammond 60 n.o.); University College, London (drawn; Walters 63: Midgley 46); Erratics (drawn: Midgley 60; Pretty 4 for 48); Optimists (won by 5 wkts: Pretty 6 for 54; Midgley 65 n.o.); the Hon. Society of Troughers (won by 105 runs: Copestake 68 n.o.). Other matches were played against Blenheim (won by ro6 runs: Mahon 4 for 14; Midgley 65 and 4 for rr); R.A.C., Cirencester (drawn); R.A.F. Brize Norton (lost); Haymakers (drawn: Pretty 4 for 68; Galland 43 n.o.) ; Queen's (drawn: Kent 33 n.o.). One of the instrumental causes of the many successes, on and off the field, was the intlux of a large number of keen, able first-year men.

THE ATHLETICS CLUB Captain: R. G. W APLE Secretary: M. L. E. FoxTON THIS WAS A rather mixed year for the Club. The Hall had no trouble in retaining the Relays Cup, and it also won a triangular match with the Bank of England and St Catherine's. Unfortunately, however, the summer Athletics Cup was snatched from the Hall's grasp by St John's (serious efforts will be made to bring it back next year) . Congratulations are due to R. B. Tait, J. N. Goater and P. R. Edwards for their successes in the magnificent O.U.A.C. win over Cambridge in the centenary year of the Varsity match; both the former were awarded Blues, while the last obtained a Half-Blue. J. F. Dykes, M. L. Foxton and C. M. Lizieri also deserve congratulations for helping the Centipedes to triumph once more over Alverstone, albeit by only one point.

THE SQUASH RACQUETS CLUB Captain: I. BRIMECOME Secretary: R. ]. HAMMOND THIS SEASON has seen the long awaited revival of Hall squash, with excellent performances by the team in both League and Cuppers.

Members have been very willing to play, even at short notice, and this made it possible to field strong teams in every match. The League Division 4 title was won by a very wide margin, sound victories over every other team in the Division yielding 32 out of the 35 points possible. R. ]. Hammond and W. L. Eddlestone played in all five League matches and won all of their games. The Cuppers performance included a convincing victory over Corpus, the Division 2 champion, and eventual defeat by Worcester, the Division r champion. This defeat was the only one sustained in the season, including friendly games. Colours were awarded to W. L. Eddlestone and R. B. Tait.

THE TENNIS CLUB Captain: A. S. LOWENTHAL Secretary: R. T. M. MOORE AN INFLUX OF talented freshmen enabled the Hall to field a full team of University players in Cuppers, and an only marginally weaker side in the League. The Club had a very successful season, being unbeaten in the League and gaining promotion to the rst Division. Once again it reached the semi-final in Cuppers, beating last year's winners, B.N.C., on the way. In the final it was defeated, somewhat unfortunately, by St John's. All six members of the 1st team played in either Blues' or Penguins' matches during the season, and A. S. Lowenthal and P. S. Lamb took part in the Penguins' victorious match against Cambridge. For the first time a 2nd VI was in action, and when at full strength proved convincingly the strength and depth that exists within the Hall.

THE BADMINTON CLUB THE YEAR was one of unprecedented success for the Hall Badminton teams. Having themselves obtained Blues, R. C. Wilson and C.

42

Burdon led the Hall to victory in Cuppers, beating Merton 4-0 in the Final and not conceding a single game in the competition. In the League the Hall's strength in depth was shown by the fact that promotion was gained for the second successive year despite having to play without three of the Cuppers team.

G.S.

THE TABLE TENNIS CLUB Captain and Secretary: S. J. BURNETT THE HALL shared the same degree of success and failure as last year.

The lst team maintained its position in Division I, as did the 2nd team in Division III. Next year the latter will be joined by the 3rd team, which gained promotion for the second year in succession. The 4th team continued to make steady progress in Division VIII. In Cuppers the Hall met with precisely the same fate as last year, being knocked out in the second round.

THE CROQUET CLUB Captain: P. S. MALIN Secretary: P. BUTLER THE CLUB had a quiet season, the Secretary's gallant efforts to arrange fixtures with St Hilda's, St Hugh's, St Anne's, etc. being met with the usual indifference. However, a number of friendly internal games were played, although it was sad that the proposed battle between the John Oldham Society and the Music Club fell through.

Officers for 1975-Captain: T. A. Downes; Secretary: D. P. Piper; Technical Adviser: A. G. Shipton.

THE SADDLE CLUB Captain: C. R. WrLSON THE CLUB did not succeed in attracting any freshmen this year, or indeed any members of other years. This was w1fortunate, for the relatively cheap hack, almost always enjoyable even after the odd tumble or two, was consistently worth while, even if only to get away from books and essays.

THE DARTS CLUB Captain: G. HUTCHINSON ITS FIRST season the Club had the success and good fortune to win the 2nd division of the inter-college League. The object now is to complete a double by winning next year the rst division.

THE LIDDON SOCIETY President: A. L. SLOANE THE SOCIETY opened the year with a talk by Fr Christopher Bryant, S.S.J.E., on 'The Religious Life', in which he gave a valuable insight into the role of prayer, both in his life as a monk and in the life of the layman. The importance of prayer was also emphasized at an interesting meeting in Hilary Term at which a returning member, A. R. Craston, spoke of his work among students in Vienna University.

Later that term the Society had the honour of welcoming Professor Sir Alister Hardy, F.R.S., who gave a talk on 'Can we make a scientific study of religious experience?', provoking many questions and much thought. Professor J. Macquarrie in Trinity Term spoke with great clarity on 'The Holy Spirit: Who or What?', discussing the nature of the Holy Spirit as revealed in Biblical imagery. The Society closed the year with its customary annual 'pilgrimage' to Binsey Church and the ancient well of St Frideswide.

A.LS.

THE CHRISTIAN UNION MEMBERS MET TOGETHER regularly during the week for Bible study; in Trinity Term the studies were on the Epistles of Peter, and were considered very helpful. The Christian Union exists not only as one focus of Christian worship in the Hall, but as a means whereby members can share their faith with others in college who may be interested to know about Christianity. On the more active side members were involved in Trinity Term with taking two school assemblies at Cheney School. Twelve members planned to meet for a week in September on a barge on the Oxford Canal as a preparation for Michaelmas Term.

The group expresses gratitude to all leavers who contributed to its work during their time in Oxford, and wishes them every blessing and success.

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: S. G. BRYANT Secretary: J. H. E. COLTON THE SOCIETY continued to provide Hall historians with succulent feasts of learning and scholarship, not unmixed with amusement and enjoyment. In November 1973 A. J. Nicholls (St Antony's) presented an interesting paper on the history of Bavaria in relation to the Weimar Republic, while later that term T.P.C. Stibbs, from the M.C.R., put forward equally interesting views on trusteeship with emphasis on British colonial responsibilities and aims. The highlight of the year, however, was undoubtedly the visit (delayed from the beginning of Michaelmas Term owing to illness) of Dr A. L. Rowse, who retained his controversial image in his wandering and provocative review of his own book, Sex and Society in Shakespeare's Age. This meeting was much the most numerously attended of any winter gathering of the Society, and no one left without having formed some clear opinion either about Shakespeare's society or about Dr Rowse himself The serious business of the year was concluded by a stimulating paper from R. G. Tait (Research Fellow) on 'Rebellion and Class Conflict in the l6th and l7th Centuries'. To crown the year came the annual dinner of the Society in the Old Dining Hall, the most memorable part of which was a solo rendering of old Hall songs by no less an artist than the Dean. Altogether it was a successful and most enjoyable year, marred only by the retirement in the autumn of Dr G. D. Ramsay (who inspired the foundation of the Society in Hilary Term 1950).

He will be missed by everyone, but the Society will go on from strength to strength.

S.G.B .

THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: TONY DOWNES Secretary: DAVE HOLMES THE PAST YEAR has, its members would like to think, established the Society as probably the most active college dramatic society in Oxford.

That its reputation is growing seems to be evidenced by the ever increasing number of people coming to productions.

This year saw the debuts of two Hall directors. Peter Malin's 'Henry V', the major production in Michaelmas Term, was the year's first success. Despite protests from above that 'You can't do that to 45

Henry V', Peter did precisely that, and his interpretation of the play was widely congratulated. Mike Constantine played a large part in achieving this; his Henry was a remarkably well sustained portrayal.

The rest of the cast consisted of old stalwarts plus some new and enthusiastic Hall men who have added much to the Society. Alyn Shipton's directing debut came with 'The Alchemist' in Hilary Term.

This was a more lavish production than the Hall has attempted for some time, and the sustained pace and high and low comedy kept the audience's attention riveted. The writer is sure that he speaks for everyone when he says how much he enjoyed working on this production .

The third major success of the year was Michaelmas Term's revue 'Be a Devil', directed by Eric Presland, which, as word spread through Oxford, attracted immense audiences who came and laughed until their sides ached and the tears flowed down their cheeks. All three productions, it is pleasing to note, made slight profits, and the Society is proud of the fact that, of all Hall societies, it alone borrows money from Amalgamated Clubs which it is capable of paying back.

Trinity Term was relatively quiet. However, the Society remained active by producing two week-ends of readings, one 'From Bed to Worse' from the books of Robert Benchley and directed by Eric Presland, and the simply entitled 'A Night with King Arthur', compiled by Nick Friend. Both made a pleasant evening's entertainment, but the pleasant summer evenings unfortunately seemed to rob the Society of large audiences.

The Society would like to thank (again) Linda Holdaway and Louise Everett for their continued loyalty, especially Louise, who stepped into her role in 'The Alchemist' only a fortnight before it went on stage. It will be sorry to lose them for next year. Others too will be missed, especially Peter Malin and the hitherto ubiquitous Eric Presland.

THE ART COMMITTEE President: A. G.

SHIPTON

1973-74 was a very successful one for the Committee, the main event having been the purchase of two major additions to the collection. These are 'A Street Corner', by John Minton (in pen and ink) , and 'Unsleeping Beauty', by Roland Penrose (a rare example of Penrose's surrealist work, originally exhibited at E. L. T. Mesen's London Gallery in 1947). Both new acquisitions were put on show THE YEAR

46

with the principal works in the College collection at the end of Hilary Term: a rare opportunity to see the pictures together, and for J.C.R. members to view works which had been on loan to the S.C.R. The paintings by Mark Gertler and Lucien Pissarro were subsequently cleaned and restored.

Several exhibitions have been held at the Hall. In Michaelmas there was a show of boldly painted wood and fibreglass sculptures by John Knowles. In the winter, in addition to our own collection, Hall members saw work by Adrian Whittlesea, who has exhibited widely in Oxford. Finally in Trinity Term there were two exhibitions: one of Yugoslavian landscape paintings by Barbara Dorf, from the Ruskin School of Drawing, and one in lighter vein of cartoons by Bill Tidy, John Kent, Martin Honeysett, Raymond Lowry and Hector Breeze.

This was the first cartoon exhibition since the Steadman show six years ago: but it proved extremely popular, and we hope to repeat the venture before long.

Next year it is intended to add one or two ni_ajor works to the collection, and to develop the idea of sculpture exhibitions, possibly with a view to using the crypt of St Pcter's-in-the-East. The loan scheme is still widely used, and two small works (a screen print and a lithograph) have been added.

THE MUSIC CLUB President: G. J. PRICE Secretary P. A. OSBORN has survived its 'little' financial problem, and seems well set to continue flourishing. Trinity Term saw the departure of the founder-members of the Club, a sad occasion but one that is a tribute to all they started in that we are still going. The experiment of involving the members in the programmes has proved successful. In Hilary Term the Club was fortunate in having the composer Bryan Kelly present a programme. At the dinner in Trinity Term the critic and musicologist, Andrew Porter, was the guest speaker. Hopes arc widespread that the Club will long flourish. ¡ G.P. THE CLUB
