ST EDMUND HALL MAGAZINE VOL. XI, No. 2

OCTOBER 1975 EDITOR 1974-75: RICHARD GRETTON

THE PRINCIPAL AND FELLOWS ON 8 OCTOBER 1974 the Principal was once more admitted as a Pro-Vice-Chancellor for the ensuing academic year. The Magazine congratulates Professor J. W. Christian on his election in March as a Fellow of the Royal Society, and Professor P. B. Hirsch on being awarded a knighthood in the Birthday Honours.

The Vice-Principal (Revd E. G. Midgley) has been elected to the General Board. Dr R. B. Mitchell, who has been elected to the English Board, lectured in April at the University of Bologna and the British Institute, Bologna. Dr F. J. C. Rossotti lectured in June at the NATO Advanced Study Institute held near Pisa on nuclear magnetic resonance. He serves on the Analytical Chemistry Panel of the British National Committee for Chemistry. Dr D. I. Scargill has been appointed Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Oxford Preservation Trust.

Mr N. C. Pollock lectured in October 1974 on animal ecology at Adelaide University, South Australia. Dr M. S. Child has continued as Acting Professor of Theoretical Chemistry. Dr P. J. Collins was chairman of the organizing committee for the International Conference on Analytic Typology held in Oxford in April.

AN HONORARY FELLOW THE SMALL but distinguished band of Honorary Fellows has been increased by the election, in January 1975, of the Right Hon. Lord Wylie, P.C., Senator of the College of Justice in Scotland. Before coming to Oxford Norman Russell Wylie was 1

at Paisley Grammar School and Glasgow University; he entered the Hall in 1946 on being demobilized from the Fleet Air Arm. After reading Modern History he returned to Glasgow, where he took the LLB. degree, and was admitted to the Faculty of Advocates, Edinburgh, in 1952. As Member of Parliament for Edinburgh, Pentlands, he became Solicitor-General for Scotland in 1962, and was Lord Advocate from 1970 to 1974. He has been described as 'one of the most significant reforming Lords Advocate of this century'.

EMERITUS FELLOWS and Professor D. c. M. Yardley, whose retirement from their Official Fellowships was announced in the previous issue of the Magazine, were elected Emeritus Fellows of the Hall in October last year. Of those who were already Emeritus Fellows the Magazine notes with satisfaction the marriage of Professor H. M. N. H. Irving and Dr Anne Mawby on 17 June; the election of Professor G. R. Allen to a Senior Leverhulme Research Fellowship (subject: the World Food Situation till 1985, with special reference to S.E. Asia); and the choice of the Revd Professor J. McManners to preach the Commemoration Sermon before the University on 22 June.

BOTH DR G. D. RAMSAY

NEW FELLOWS extends a warm welcome to Stephen Wigham Richardson, M.A., D. Phil., and Robert Venables, M.A., Ll.M. (Lond.), who have been elected to Fellowships in Geology and Jurisprudence respectively, and also to David Richard Timothy Jones, M.A., D.Phil., who has been elected to a Junior Research Fellowship in Theoretical Physics in association with an Oxford University IBM Research Fellowship. Dr Richardson, whose Fellowship took effect on 1 June, is no stranger to the Hall, having been a Lecturer since 1970. Originally a New College man, he studied at Princeton, where he obtained his Ph.D., has been a Lecturer at Edinburgh University, and holds the position of University Lecturer at Oxford. Mr Venables, who took up his appointment on 1 October, is Professor Yardley's successor.

A classical Postmaster of Merton, he read for Honour Moderations in Classics, Greats and finally Jurisprudence at that college. Among other distinctions he was awarded the Charles Oldham Classical Scholarship and the Chancellor's Prize for Latin Prose. A barrister of the Middle Temple, he won the

Astbury Law Scholarship. Since 1972 he has been part-time Lecturer at Merton (with Corpus), and since 1973 Lecturer at University College, London. Dr Jones was a Welsh Foundation Scholar of Jesus College, and obtained Firsts in Honour Moderations (Physics and Mathematics) and Physics Finals. He has recently been lecturing at the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, University of Sussex.

LECTURERS IN THE academic year 1974-75 the following were appointed Lecturers of the Hall: in Biochemistry-Dr D. G. Wild, Fellow of Corpus Christi; in Psychology (in succession to Mr N. Harvey, now Lecturer at St Andrews)-Dr R. E. Passingham, Balliol College, Research Officer in the Department of Experimental Psychology; in English Language-Mrs S. J. OgilvieThompson, St Hilda's College.

TWO HAPPY OCCASIONS THE HALL congratulates the Chef, Mr Gabriele Cavalieri, and Mrs Maria Cavalieri on the birth of triplets on 8 February 1975, and the Manciple, Mr Donald Filer, on his marriage to Mrs Marjorie Tofts on 22 March 1975. The triplets, two boys and a girl, are named Ricardo, Vincenzo and Maria Assunta; they have two older brothers, aged four and two respectively.

Mr Filer, who has played bowls for Oxfordshire, is a member and former president of the East Oxford Bowls Club, and his bride is Vice-President of the Oxford City Supporters Club.

WHITE HALL expressed in last year's Magazine were not frustrated, and the north wing of the Phase III building, comprising eighteen study-bedrooms, was brought into occupation at the beginning of Michaelmas Term 1974. The residental part of the High Street block was completed on the eve of Hilary Term 1975 and at once came into occupation. It contains a further sixteen study-bedrooms and, on the top floor, a suite for a resident Fellow and a large teaching-room shared by two Fellows. At the time of going to press the remainder of the building, except for one shop on the High Street, has been brought into use, thus providing a launderette, a drying-room, a furniture store and a large general-purposes room, as well as THE HOPES

a shop. The whole building has been designated White Han after a medieval hall of that name which occupied the same site and which was annexed to St Edmund Hall by 1399 /1400, still belonged to it in 1469, but probably passed out of its possession after 1471. The penthouse apartments have been named the Hoover Rooms in commemoration of the munificent benefaction given to the Hall by the Hoover Foundation. Three studybedrooms on the ground floor have been named the Tennant Room, the Mizen Room and the Elaine and Neville Blond Room because their cost was met out of generous gifts from John Spencer Tennant (1909-12), Raymond Mizen (1957-60) and the Neville and Elaine Blond Charitable Trust respectively.

Eight study-bedrooms on the first floor have been named the Colocotronis Rooms in recognition of munificent donations to the New Buildings Fund which the Hall has received from Dr Minos Colocotronis, his son John Colocotronis (1971-74), and his nephews Alexander Georgiadis (1961-64) and Antony Georgiadis (1964-67). Plaques recording these names and the names of the benefactors whose generosity made the construction of these rooms possible are being prepared.

RESTORING THE ROOFS BETWEEN SEPTEMBER 1974 and March 1975 scaffolding enshrouded the north range of the old quadrangle while its roofs were extensively restored. On the side facing the churchyard the Stonesfield slates, which had been either re-hung or freshly affixed in 1913, were replaced, the battening beneath them and, where necessary, the old trusses were renewed, and felting was inserted for the first time. On the side overlooking the quadrangle, where the slates and supporting roof dated from the 1931 restoration and were in a much better condition, a thorough re-patching job was carried out. The dormers on the churchyard side were taken down and rebuilt, while those on the quadrangle side were renovated. Fire-breaks were constructed up to the level of the eaves, dividing the roof by staircases, and the ceilings and sides of top-storey rooms were lagged with fibre-glass. All chimney stacks, including the one rising above the gabled north end of the Queen's Lane building, were carefully restored. The operation, which cost approximately ÂŁ10,000, has greatly enhanced the appearance of the north range, especially as viewed from the churchyard.

STAIRCASE VIII THE NEXT TASK facing the Hall, now that Phase III is virtually complete, is the refurbishing, or rather internal reconstruction, of the house once known as No. 48 High Street and since its annexation by the Hall in 1930 as Staircase VIII. In recent years its staircases and rooms have become shabby and run-down, and it has become urgently necessary to bring its studybedrooms up to an acceptable standard, instal modern facilities, and link the house with White Hall. Work started on this in July and will, it is hoped, be finished in time for the opening of Michaelmas Term 1976. Meanwhile the temporary loss of thirteen undergraduates' and four Fellows' rooms has caused an awkward problem of accommodation.

THE HALL

GIFTS warmly thanks the following :

Mrs M. Barnes, of Nether Westcote, Kingham, for the gift of a second shrub, this time a Witch Hazel, for the Library Garden; H. Beresford Barrett (matric. 1919) for his old M.A. gown, to be kept by the Principal for the use of gownless graduate visitors; Chen Shing-jen (matric. 1971) for a peacock and peony screen made by Korean artisans, originally the property of I. H. Kim (matric. 1970); the late Herbert Cook (d. 1 Jan. 1967), father of H. F. Cook (matric. 1932), for the gift of a silver inscribed tankard for use in the dining-hall; M. W. Gallop (matric. 1919) for presenting a print depicting Thomas Hearne and formerly owned by a descendant living at Church Stretton, Shropshire; the late Canon W. E. Lambeth (matric. 1914) for presenting two prints of the Hall; Mrs D. C. Malcom for the gift of the Hall scarf used by her late husband David C. Malcom (matric. 1964); the St Edmund Hall Association for the donations to the Scholarship Fund, the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund ¡and the Directory Fund voted at the A.G.M. in January.

ACADEMIC DISTINCTIONS FOUR HALL MEN obtained Firsts in Final Honour Schools in Trinity Term: S. A. Fell and D. A. Leggatt in Chemistry, N. P. Gregory and R. W. Series in Metallurgy. R. W. Series was also awarded the International Nickel Prize. S. S. Chandler (Geography) won the Herbertson Memorial Prize for the best geographical dissertation. K. A. Ford (second year) won the Trabutt Prize for excellence in practical organic Chemistry.

Firsts in Honour Moderations were obtained by L. J. Hall and T. B. Robinson (Physics, Mathematics and Engineering), and

by R. A. Kelly (English). The following were awarded Distinctions in the First Public Examination: I. H. Macleod (Law), M. J. Hooton (German), S. P. Edrich (Geology) and C. A. Penwarden (P.P.E.). Two scholars won Heath Harrison Junior Scholarships in Hilary Term: E. G. Maddocks (for the second time: in French) and M. J. Hooton (in German). T. S. Maxwell, a graduate student (Oriental Studies) in his first year, was granted an award from the Boden Fund to engage in field work in India and was pre-elected to a Junior Research Fellowship at Wolfson College (for 1976).

K. M. Fisher, R. M. Jacobs and D. C. Wilson, who obtained Firsts in 1974 and remained in residence, were elected into Honorary Scholarships in Michaelmas Term 1974. S. J. C. P. Phlipponneau, a graduate of the University of Rennes, was elected into a Besse French Scholarship.

COLLEGE COMMITTEE THE COMMITTEE had a busy year, with five regular meetings and one emergency meeting. As usual, a number of practical matters- the effect of rising prices on central heating and the hot water supply, the provision of facilities in the vacations, the use of and charges for rooms in the vacations, the structure of fees and charges for 1975-76- figured on the agenda. The emergency meeting was called (11 February) to deal with the short-fall of rooms in 1975-76 for third-year men caused by a higher-than-usual intake in 1974 and the temporary loss of Staircase VIII owing to reconstruction. In addition certain items of wider importance were discussed at regular meetings, notably (a) the question of the sale of alcoholic liquor in colleges in the light of the acceptance by colleges generally of the view that this should be confined to genuine members of 6

colleges, and (b) the sending down of an undergraduate for academic reasons and the representation of it in interested quarters, chiefly outside the College, as politically motivated.

The Committee addressed itself to these very varied issues in a constructive fashion which contributed greatly to the smooth functioning of college life. The new junior members in Trinity Term were R. Gretton (J.C.R. President), J. S. Herlihy (J.C.R. Steward: co-opted), and (elected) T. N. Hart, R. J. Lane, and I. F. C. Murray.

GRAHAM HAMILTON TRAVEL FUND GRANTS OF ÂŁ25.00 each were made to the following from the Fund (augmented by a generous donation from the St Edmund Hall Association) in order to help them to make trips in the long vacation involving 'some measure of enterprise, initiative and endurance': T. P. Cripps (climbing in the Alps-he was unable to take up the grant made to him in 1974); R. C. Moore (hitch-hiking through Italy, ferry across the Adriatic to Greece and Crete, camping and sleeping rough); P. Phillips (walking in the Pyrenees and N.W. Spain); P. J. Rogers (walking the Pennine Walk); D. L. Rosen (orienteering competition and a week mountaineering, in Switzerland); J. J. Tholstrup (walking and living in primitive conditions in S.W. Turkey); J. M. Wien (one month F.0. course on spoken and written Arabic in Beirut; then overland to Damascus).

HALL BALL 1975 GLIDE OVER THE LAWN, past the crazy croquet, past the meats and delicacies and the invisible food marquee. Start an avocado with Lol Coxhill serenading on alto-sax; finish your strawberries and cream to the fine strains of an orchestral waltz. Gaze at the front quad bathed in floodlight; listen to Richard Stilgoe's musical revue; dance to Alyn Shipton's jazz band . . . . Time for some action-follow the signs to the Main Hall and bop to Johnny Johnson and the Bandwaggon. Then the highlight of the evening, 'Osibisa', 'criss-cross rhythms that explode with happiness'. Wind down in the Folk Cellar, doze in Paddington's room. Revive, it's time for breakfast, eaten to a wind ensemble, digested to a steel band. Dawn piper and madrigals to introduce the spectacular 7

finale, Shakin' Stevens and the Sunsets. Over 400 revellers rocking at six in the morning ....

Where else but the S.E.H. Ball? A night to remember: I hope there are many more.

R. J. GOLLAND J.C.R. AND M.C.R. OFFICERS P. J. LIVESEY was elected President of the J.C.R. at the end of Michaelmas Term 1974. On his resignation at the beginning of Trinity Term 1975 R.

just to see those white clad figures carving joints of dickensian proportions.

Before proposing the customary toast of 'Floreat Aula' the President, Sir Denis Wright, welcomed the Principal and the President of the Junior Common Room, Peter Livesey. He also conveyed 'grandparental safotations' from A.B.E. whom he had visited a few days before. Replying, the Principal recalled the earliest London Dinners held in purple and green surroundings in Soho. He then spoke of the year's achievements at the Hall, the completion of White Hall, the eight Firsts gained in Schools, and the revival of the Boat Club with its successes in Eights and the Christ Church Regatta. Clearly these had not gone unnoticed in the world at large, the Hall having had the largest number of applicants amongst the men's colleges of the university in the November scholarship and entrance examination.

The London Dinner is held every year on the second Tuesday in January at Simpsons. Why not get up a party and join us?

MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the St Edmund Hall Association was held at Simpsons-in-the-Strand, London, on Tuesday, 14 January 1975, at 6.15 p.m. The President, Sir Denis ·W right, was in the Chair.

The minutes of the previous Annual General Meeting, being published in the Magazine, were taken as read. They were duly approved and signed.

The President announced that, to bring the Association's financial year into line with that of the Hall, it had been agreed by the Executive Committee that the current financial year should end on 31 July 1975 and not on 30 April. This proposal was accepted by the Annual General Meeting.

The Hon. Treasurer drew the members' attention to the Accounts as printed in the Magazine, and briefly explained one or two salient points, viz. the Association's income was up by £76 and, despite increases in the costs of the Directory, postage and stationery, the overall level of expenditure was down by £ll5. This was largely the result of the lower computer costs for future Directory Supplements, and the Hall's generosity in agreeing to pay half the costs of the Magazine.

This left a deficit of £130 compared with £321 the previous year. Investments stood at £1,400 and the Bank Balance was £113. The Allocations had been made as authorized-£200 to the Scholarship Fund, £80 to the Graham Hamilton Travel Fund , £300 to the Directory Fund. The former Publication Fund had been transferred to the General Fund. The current financial year would be of fifteen months duration, which would mean that the next accounts would be published sixteen months 'late'.

Should anyone wish to see the Accounts prior to publication, he should write to the Hon. Treasurer. The Accounts were accepted nem con.

The President congratulated the Hon. Treasurer on his stewardship and said that, as the subject had been so well covered, he had no further comments to make.

As no other nominations had been received, the retiring Members of the Executive Committee (up to 1934, R. Waye; up to 1944, Revd E. G. Midgley; up to 1954, D. J. Day; up to 1964, M. G. M. Groves) were proposed en bloc, seconded and unanimously elected. J. B. Allan was also proposed, seconded and elected without opposition, to replace the late N. G. Fisher on the Committee.

The Hon. Treasurer, Hon. Auditor and Hon. Secretary all declared themselves willing to stand for a further term of office and, with no other nominations having been received, were duly elected.

There was no other official business, but the President took the opportunity of thanking Sir Claude Hayes for deputising for him at the previous year's June Meeting, and the Officers and Members of the Executive Committee for their help during his year of office.

There being no further business, the Meeting closed at 6.35 p.m.

Secretary: T. R. LucAs

Treasurer: S. C. BUTLER

Steward: N. C. G. RoDLIFFE

ALTHOUGH THE 1974-75 season will not count as the most successful in the Hall's history, there were some notable achievements. In November the First VIII won the Christ Church Regatta in convincing fashion, but owing to an accident at the start on the third day failed to maintain this form in Torpids. Eights Week also proved disappointing for all Hall eights, although bumps were made by the Sixth, Fifth and Third ('Vikings'). There was universal rejoicing, however, when J. N. Calvert was chosen to cox the Blue Boat against Cambridge. ¡Officers for 1975-76- Captain: C. M. Jones; Vice-Captain: J. G. Ibbotson; Secretary: R. D. Warren; Treasurer: A. R. Hargreaves; Steward: F.

MACKENZIE

League Captain: A. J. WALKER Secretary: A. P. JORDAN Treasurer: R. GRETTON UNFORTUNATELY, THIS proved to have been probably the least distinguished season for the Club for over ten years. Injuries dogged it throughout both terms , compounding the gaps caused by the demands of the O.U.R.F.C. As a result the First XV finished fifth in Michaelmas Term, and the only high spots were the Blues won by D. W. Mackenzie and J. A. Taylor. In Hilary Term Cuppers again eluded the Hall and it was disappointing, after the excellent victories achieved earlier in term over Oxford Thursdays and Brize Norton (R.A.F.), to have to yield to Keble in the semi-final. As usual, however, the Hall's strength in depth was reflected, first, in the continued reign of the Second XV as the best in the University and, secondly, by winning the University Sevens in great style.

THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Cuppers Captain: D. P. WALTERS League Captain: C. L. AMOR Secretary: N. D. LAING IT IS FAIR comment that the Hall dominated University Football during the 1974-75 season with B. Thomas captaining the Varsity at Wembley, M. J. Davies winning his second Blue for football, and P. E. Kent succeeding to the Varsity captaincy for the next season. In the League the First XI lost only one match and finished runners-up in the final table, ¡ while the Second XI recovered from a poor start to take third place in their competition. In Hilary Term the Hall completed a Cuppers double, winning both the First and Second XI events. As enthusiasm is high among players and supporters, and as few are leaving, prospects for next season seem bright.

Officers for 1975-76- League Captain: J. W. Ramsey; Secretaries: J. A. B. Gray and G. M. Preston.

N.D.L.

THE HOCKEY CLUB Captain: M. SLATER S ecretary: C. E. A. REDDICK THOUGH ENJOYABLE, the season was not as successful as hoped. In Cuppers, after convincingly disposing of Christ Church, the team was unlucky to lose to Worcester in the quarter-final on penalty strokes.

Despite atrocious weather, some League matches were played and it was evident that the full team, when fielded, was capable of gaining promotion, but too often other activities took precedence and the Club had to be content with holding its place in the Second Division.

Officers for 1975-76--Captain: M. Slater; Secretary: R. J. Lane.

C.E.A.R. THE CRICKET CLUB Cuppers Captain: D. P. WALTERS Secretary: I. J. MIDGLEY THE CLUB had a disappointing season, winning only two matches, against the Troughers and the Waggoners. The dilemma, as always, was to find a balance between picking capable teams and giving a regular game to all the keen players. In Cuppers the Hall was eliminated in the second round, having had a bye in the first. The blame for failure to impress throughout the rest of the season can be laid at the door of established players who proved unreliable in either performance or availability. There were some noteworthy individual performances: D. P. Walters (103 * v Churchill, Cambridge); I. J. Midgley (53* v.

Troughers and 47 v. Stoics); F. L. Barber (35 v. Mansfield) and T. Ryder 27

(5 for 8 v. Churchill); C. A. Penwarden bowled encouragingly without a great deal of support. F. L. Barber and C. A. Penwarden have been appointed Captain and Secretary respectively for 1976 season.

I.J.M. THE ATHLETICS CLUB Captain: M. L. E. FOXTON Secretary: C. M. LIZIERI EVEN BY HALL standards, the Club had a remarkable season, completing a Cuppers double. In Hilary Term the Relays Cup was easily retained, while the Athletics Cup itself was recovered in June after a year's absence. The victory was close, being secured, against the combined Merton/Mansfield side, by a mere point and a half in the last event. Colours were awarded to J. N. Goater, P. R. Edwards, J. F. Dykes, J. D. T. Rose, C. M. Lizieri, M. A. Perryman, G. W. Chapman, M. L. E. Foxton, A . P. Jordan and P. H. Tudor.

C.M.L. THE SQUASH RACQUETS CLUB Captain: w. L. EDDLESTONE Secretary: R. J. HAMMOND THE REVIVAL OF Hall squash which began last year was continued this season; the game has grown more popular in college, and a ladder which has been started received enthusiastic response. For the second season in succession the Club remained unbeaten in the League, and this season won the third division title, dropping only three points. In Cuppers it was unlucky in meeting the favourites in the early stages, and suffered its only defeat of the season. Colours were awarded to K. H. Auckland and W. R. Cooke, and the former will take over as Secretary next year.

W.L.E. THE TENNIS CLUB Captain: A. s. LOWENTHAL Secretary: C. H. M. OULTON THE CLUB maintained the high standard of previous years, all five University players of last year being still up and several talented freshmen adding strength in depth. Owing to Schools, it was unfortunately obliged to concede the last three League matches and thus bring its unbeaten run to an end. The Hall, however, convincingly won Cuppers, defeating last year's victors (St John's) 5-1 in the Final.

THE BADMINTON CLUB

Captain: c. BURDON Secretary: G. J. SHAW THIS PROVED to be a most successful season for the Club, and the Hall retained the Cup for a second year. In spite of the enforced absence of the Captain (who was also Captain of the Blues' side), the Club showed strength in depth by gaining promotion for the third year in succession, this time to the First Division.

G.J.S.

THE TABLE TENNIS CLUB

Captain: R. T. M. MOORE Secretary: R. I. CORNER THERE wAS little success for any of the four teams this season, there being only a very small pool of players keen enough to play each week.

In Cuppers, for the third year running, the Hall got no further than the second round.

Officers for 1975-76- Captain : S. J. Burnett; Secretary: G. Vanes.

THE CROQUET CLUB

Captain: T. A. DOWNES Secretary: D. P. PIPER Technical Adviser: A. G. SHIPTON THE CLUB had a more lively season than for several years, entering two pairs for the revived Cuppers competition. Both were quickly eliminated, but the improved understanding of the subtle, tactical nature of the game made the humiliation bearable.

R. WILSON

PERHAPS THE only purpose of this report is to say that the Club is, at the moment, 'standing still'. There has not been much activity down at the old corral this year; no adventurous rodeo riders have come forward; we seem to have been flogging a dead horse (Editor sic!).

THE DARTS CLUB Captain:

J. F. DYKES

IN THIS, only its second season, the Club showed itself to be one of the strongest college teams, finishing near the top of the First Division of the Inter-college League. An early defeat in Cuppers by Queen's should spur us to greater efforts next year.

Captain for 1975-76: A. M. R. Stone.

THE CROSS-COUNTRY CLUB Captain: J. C. LEWIS Secretary: D. L. ROSEN THIS WAS a mixed season for the Hall. In Michaelmas Term there were some poor turn-outs in the League races, and the Hall was narrowly defeated in Cuppers by St Catherine's. In December, however, four members of the Club, financially assisted by Amalgamated Clubs, took part in an international competition in Paris. In Hilary Term the Hall achieved fourth place in its own relay, being the highest placed Oxford college, and fourth place again in the Selwyn relay at Cambridge.

At Hyde Park the Hall was 71st out of over one hundred teams from at home and abroad. The Club also repaid the hospitality received in Paris, entertaining and racing against some thirty Frenchmen.

Officers for 1975-76- Captain: J. Taylor; Secretary: L. J. Hall.

D.L.R.

THE ST EDMUND HALL ROAD RELAY THIS YEAR'S relay, held on 5 February, attracted 24 teams from places like Bristol, Guildford and Warwick, as well as from a good number of Oxford Colleges and from Queens' College, Cambridge. The 2t mile lap started and finished in the Parks. The Hall team were only fourteenth after the second leg, but J. Goater, who ran the fastest lap of the day, pulled up to fourth position. J. Taylor retained this on the last leg, and the Hall was the first Oxford college home in overall fourth position.

D.L.R.

THE SAILING CLUB Secretary: J. N. GANNAWAY THE CLUB had another very quiet season this year, but in Cuppers, although the team was assembled at short notice, the Hall came third out of the four in its group.

J.N.G.

30

THE CHESS CLUB Captain: P. M. SAINS FOR THE second season running, despite an influx of enthusiastic freshmen, the Hall found it difficult to muster a full-strength team on all occasions. In the League erratic play kept the team not far above the middle of the competition, while in Cuppers a sub-strength team was unlucky to lose 3t-2t to Jesus College.

P.M.S.

THE BRIDGE CLUB Captain: D. ANDERSON Secretary: P. DESMOND DESPITE THE wealth of talent emerging from a Freshmen's team, the Club did not find adequate form for Cuppers this year, its teams being knocked out by St John's III and Brasenose II in the first round.

P.D.

THE LIDDON SOCIETY President: A. L. SLOANE AT THE first meeting of the year a large and diverse audience heard Bishop John Robinson discoursing on 'Which way will the ball roll?', a title which he made refer to the future of society. At another meeting Miss Denlegh-Maxwell, of the Church Army, highlighted the problems of our present society. Although the meeting was poorly attended, those who were present were given a vivid picture of the varied work of the Church Army ;ind of the extent of its activities. It is perhaps a sign of the times that current social problems were again the subject of the final meeting, at which Professor Sir Hans Krebs reviewed the attitude of authorities (including those of the Church and theology) towards criminology, and reassessed the influences which contribute to criminal tendencies. The annual visit to the church and well at Binsey had to be omitted owing to the President's involvement with Schools.

A.L.S.

THE CHRISTIAN UNION AMONG THE specific activities of the Hall group was an evening of Christian entertainment entitled 'The Shores of Galilee'. The link-up at Cheney School was continued, with much closer ties between the two Unions, which have jointly put on two assemblies and some lunchtime meetings. A graduate member of the College, the Revd P. Rogers, gave much useful help.

THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: J. H. E. COLTON Secretary: J. c. SAUNDERS THE YEAR started on a rather sombre, though somehow witty, note, with the Revd Professor J. McManners (Ch. Ch.-but Emeritus Fellow, S.E.H.) presenting a paper on attitudes to death in eighteenth-century France, the subject of the inaugural lecture he was to give later in term.

He was followed in November by Michael Howard (All Souls), who drew far the largest attendance of the year when speaking ('Can wars be just?') about attitudes to warfare through the ages. Michaelmas Term ended with a wide-ranging paper, 'Oliver Cromwell in History and Legend', from Blair Worden, who has magnificently filled the gap left

by Dr Ramsay's regretted departure at the end of last year. Trinity Term saw the welcome appearance of Dr Max Hartwell (Nuffield), defending his 'optimistic' view of the Industrial Revolution. The year's discussions were concluded with a visit by Dr Piers Mackesy (Pembroke), who talked of problems encountered in the conduct of maritime operations at the turn of the nineteenth century. The end of Trinity Term saw the highlight of the Society's activities, the annual dinner, with short and scintillating speeches from Dr Worden, the Revd H. E. J. Cowdrey and the President.

J.C.S.

THE MUSIC SOCIETY President: P. J. Gow Secretary: B. ST. J. TRAFFORD Treasurer: C. W. HIND A wiDE VARIETY of musical styles was presented in the three concerts which the Society mounted during the year. The first, in Michaelmas Term, was a performance of Songs of Yale for close harmony and Scott Joplin Rags arranged for a small band. Hilary Term saw the staging of a larger venture altogether. A guest conductor, Michael Smedley, directed a programme consisting of Handel's Concerto Grosso Op. 6 No. 9, Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante and Haydn's 'Hornsignal' symphony. The orchestra included some of Oxford's best players, and throughout Oxford the concert was reckoned one of the outstanding college performances of the term. A third, more ambitious orchestral concert was mounted in Trinity Term. It consisted of a programme of Classical and Romantic music: Beethoven's 'Egmont' Overture, Weber's Bassoon Concerto, with Ian Leckie as soloist, and Schumann's 'Rhenish Symphony'. P. J. Gow conducted with the greatest of skill, and indeed it was as a result of his direction that the Society came to life again during the past year.

THE MUSIC CLUB President: A. R. McGREGOR Secretary: c. R. RUSSELL AFTER A tentative start in Michaelmas Term the Club's amalgamation with Lady Spencer Churchill College Music Society was finally put on a firm footing. Of the fortnightly joint meetings at both colleges several were particularly successful, including two musical quizzes run on the lines of television's 'Face the Music' and two guest evenings given by the Dean. The highlight of Trinity Term was the annual dinner, for which the Club was fortunate to have the composer, Bryan Kelly, as guest speaker. Further, in Trinity Term a journey to the Royal Festival Hall was arranged (by hired coach), and proved so successful as to suggest similar trips, at least once a term, in the future.

A.R.M. and C.R.R. THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: D. N. HOLMES Secretary: R. A. HUFTON THE YEAR began with a slight set-back when the previously arranged production for the term, Measure for Measure, fell through. An alternative production, however, was proposed by P. M. Sains, who made his directing debut with the little performed Restoration tragedy, Venice Preserved, by Thomas Otway in the eighth week. Hilary Term saw another directing debut, that of Rajiv Mehrota. Breaking completely with the Society's growing tradition of performing Elizabethan and Jacobean plays, he directed a production of Charles Marowitz's An Othello. This exciting, almost workshop production proved an unqualified success, in terms both of acclaim and reaction and of size of audience (people having to be turned away on both the last two nights).

In Trinity Term the Society remained ostensibly inactive. In fact, however, a large number of its members were 'hiding out in the Playhouse' under the disguise of the E.T.C., which had accepted R. Mehrota's project for its summer major (a success which was, in no small way, due to the reputation gained for him by An Othello).

The experience of having a major production, while highly enjoyable and interesting, does serve to emphasize the advantage of playing an active part in a small, compact Society like the John Oldham, in which one can act one term, work the lights the next, and be Production Manager in the third. The Society expresses thanks and good wishes to T. A. Downes and A. G. Shipton.

D.N.H. THE ART COMMITTEE President: A. G. SHIPTON Secretary: A . J. WALKER ONLY ONE exhibition was held during 1974-75, owing to the postponement of the scheme to hold exhibitions of sculpture in the crypt of St Peter-in-the-East. This was a show of oil and pastel landscape paint33

ings by a Cambridge artist, Allan Dorian Clarke, which proved successful and attracted many visitors. The Hall collection itself was considerably increased, in Michaelmas Term a fine collage by Ian Black, entitled 'Large Artefact', being purchased, and at the end of Hilary Term a set of lithographs for permanent display in the J.C.R. These latter included 'Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night' by Ceri Richards (an interesting complement to the Chapel altar-piece), a 'Horse and Rider' by Elizabeth Frink, a strange design by Graham Sutherland, and a large lithograph by the late Dame Barbara Hepworth. Next year it is hoped to return to the full programme of two exhibitions every term. The new President is A. R. Hargreaves and the new Secretary C. W. Hind.

A.G.S. THE COSMOGRAPHERS President: J. P. ROBERTS ALTHOUGH THE activities of the Cosmographers as a whole have declined in recent years, a pleasant and sober evening was spent in Hilary Term when the geographers of the Hall and of the women's colleges met for their annual cocktail party.

THE AULARIAN BOOKSHELF THE LIBRARY has been enriched during the past year by a number of very acceptable gifts.

ST. EDMUND HALL ASSOCIATION ANNUAL ACCOUNTS to bring the Association's accounting procedure into line with that of the Hall, the Annual General Meeting on 14 January 1975 approved the Executive Committee's decision that the Association's financial year should in future end on 31 July and not, as previously, 30 April. To make this adjustment, accounts for the year 1974-75 will cover the fifteen month period from 1 May 1974 to 31 July 1975 and, after auditing, these will be published in the 1976 Magazine. Subsequent accounts for the twelve month period will be published annually in the Magazine.
