ST EDMUND HALL MAGAZINE VOL. XII. No. 2.

October 1982 EDITORIAL

EITHER THE EDITOR is improving or his readers are casting a less censorious eye on his work, for we have very few corrigenda submitted this year. The one we have is a pleasure to report. R. C. S. Clark (1960) commenting on the statement on Squash Cuppers that our victory was 'believed to be our first ever Squash Cuppers success' writes 'I would just like to put the record straight on one small point . . . The Hall has lifted the coveted title at least once before. A merry band beat Jesus - if my memory serve me right - in the 1962-3 final'. Our apologies to him, and to M. G. M. Groves, J. D. Gurney, J. L. Parr, S. R. G. White and C. J. Atkinson. He suggests that these, the old crew, 'should take the present team on, provided the latter played with their ankles tied together to reduce them to our current level of immobility'. We merely set the record straight and pass on the challenge without comment.

Once more the Editor thanks most warmly his Assistant Editor for so calmly and competently gathering in the Club reports.

Jessica Davies had an almost magical persuasive touch. Thanks too to Miss Mary Boake the Principal's secretary, who never misses an item of Aularian interest, and to the ladies of the College office and to the Librarian for their complex contributions.

VALEDICTORY A LETTER FROM SIR IEUAN MADDOCK

BY THE STANDARDS that prevail in ancient and distinguished academic institutions, three years must be judged as a very short time to be the head of a college. Yet compared with the necessarily declining number of years that remain when one reaches the autumn of one's life, three years is a significant period. However short the period may appear to many, it was long enough to savour the delights of St. Edmund Hall, to enjoy the warmth of its corn-

panionship and to sense the excitement of the young. Oxford University is unblushingly a cloister, but then nearly all of us live in cloisters of one kind or another. In my own case, I have spent long periods in three cloisters, each different to each other and all different from Oxford. First there was that very strange kind of cloister that exists in large government scientific research laboratories. Then came the even stranger cloister of Whitehall and the very enclosed community of the Civil Service mandarins.

Sandwiched between there was a less obvious cloister, that of manufacturing industry. In each of these cases there was a particular and unique way of working and of thinking, a close set of relationships and a limited number of people interacting with each other. Those who ultimately make their careers in 'the City', in Fleet Street, in Tourism, in the Armed Forces or in Parliament will also become members of cloisters of some kind.

As I moved from one of these cloisters to another, I found the differences to be striking and in each case acclimatization took time. Yet in each case they became familiar and agreeable and a large company of friends and close colleagues were ultimately to be gathered and enjoyed. Oxford proved to be no exception. Initially there was the problem of becoming familiar with yet another cloister, its customs, its procedures, and its human relationships.

Then gradually as these became less strange, there came the ,pleasure of savouring much of the beauty and the style of a high academic society. To have had the privilege of doing this at all was a piece of good fortune but to be allowed to do it in the environment of Oxford's happiest and friendliest college was singularly so.

I take this opportunity to thank my colleagues in the Senior Common Room for the patience and the kindness they showed to one from such an alien background. I carry with me some very pleasant memories. I thank the college staff for the quiet and amiable efficiency they showed at all times. Above all I must thank those members of the two junior common rooms who allowed me to share in their joy in being young and their hopes for the future.

Even when occasionally they lapsed into their particular brand of naughtiness I never failed to enjoy their company - a behaviour which I am sure is improper in any really well-behaved Head of House.

Finally I must thank that multitude of Aularians who wrote to me in such friendly terms and gave me such a welcome into their midst. Hardly a day went by without a letter from someone who had studied at the Hall, sometimes many years ago and frequently 2

from some far off land. I accumulated a large number of invisible friends and I send them my warmest greetings.

It was an exciting and very pleasant three years and I am grateful for the privilege.

Floreat Aula.

THE NEW PRINCIPAL IT IS PERHAPS most revealing of the new Principal that when the Vice-Principal drove to Abingdon to bring the momentous news of the election, Justin Gosling (who as a candidate had not, of course, taken part in the process) was out with his .wife and three of his four children at an Arts Festival, and that when they had returned and the message had been given, the Vice-Principal was immediately roped in to join in bowling at young Thomas Gosling in the garden, where a net had been cunningly arranged to give maximum protection to the flower beds. In short the new Principal is a family man with wide interests, devotedly, almost professionally indulged. He is indeed often to be seen of an afternoon in the Ruskin School, aproned and burined, working away at the intaglio printing which joins recorder music and gardening as his chief extra-curricular activities. The last of these he shares with his wife Margaret who is something of an expert on gardens. She has also been working on local history in Abingdon (where they have lived for twenty years), and she is already known to some Aularians because she looked after the library a year or so ago while Sasha Wernberg-M0ller was on leave.

Justin married in 1958 when he was twenty-eight. He was at school at Ampleforth, read Classical Moderations and Greats at Wadham, took a B.Phil. in Philosophy, and was elected in 1955 to a Research Fellowship at St. John's. While there he visited Princeton, and was appointed to a Lectureship at W adham and Pembroke which he held from 1958-60. In 1961 he was elected as the Hall's first Fellow in Philosophy and he has since, at various times, served on most of the committees and has held a number of the important offices of the College: Dean of Degrees, Secretary of the Governing Body, Deputy Dean, and Senior Tutor. The Fellows thought so highly of him as a man and as an administrator that in 1977, when the Hall's turn last came to elect the Senior Proctor, Justin Gosling was the obvious choice. As Senior Proctor he had the reputation of being an excellent chairman and of maintaining admirable relations with undergraduates and with staff 3

a reputation which will not surprise his friends in St. Edmund Hall. In University administration he has been since 1978 a Delegate of University Police.

He has not, however, let this busy College and University life interfere with his productivity as philosopher and scholar. Indeed he took a year in 1970 as Visiting Research Fellow at the Australian National University in order to write. Apart from numerous articles, he has published two major books and an edition. He edited Philebus for the Oxford University Press Clarendon 'Plato' series, wrote Plato for Routledge and Kegan Paul's 'Arguments of the Philosophers' series, and Pleasure and Desire for the Oxford University Press. His Greeks on Pleasure will follow in November of this year.

Whether 'Desire' has disappeared for ever is not known. What is certain is that Mr. Gosling wears his scholarship lightly, joking about Pleasure and Desire that the effect of the title was ruined by Oxford University Press's chaste dust jacket. Indeed his sense of humour augurs well for the speeches he will have to make, as does the fact that his Proctorial Oration was the wittiest in living memory and was delivered extempore. Finally, to come full circle, the new Principal is fifty-two, fit (he cycles daily from and to Abingdon), and bowls a good length.

AU REVOIR records with regret the retirement this summer of Dr. Richard Fargher, Fellow and Tutor in French and University Lecturer in French.

Dr. Fargher was a member of the Queen's College and, after a distinguished career there as undergraduate and graduate, he left Oxford to become a Lecturer in French at Southampton University where he worked for three years. On Dr. Hunt's moving to a Chair in London, Dr. Emden invited Richard Fargher to become a Fellow of the Hall and Tutor in French. In October 1949 he took up his Fellowship and University Lectureship, and for thirty three years devoted himself to the life and teaching of the Hall.

Many generations of Hall men will remember him with affection and gratitude as a friend and teacher. His enthusiasm and humour and often iconoclastic opinions when faced with stuffiness or pedantry made him a stimulating tutor, and his sympathy and understanding care of his pupils was given to black sheep and prizewinners alike. His colleagues will miss him very much indeed, not only for his moderation and wisdom disguised by him as 'simple common sense' , but for his impish sense of mischief and an occasional maverick act or opinion which made working with Richard Fargher an interesting and not always predictable experience. They will also remember with gratitude the quiet and

efficient way in which, as Vice-Principal, he took on the burden of the Hall during Dr. Kelly's serious illnesses.

His departure removes one more of the original little group of Fellows in the Hall's post-Emdenian new life. The old pack is broken now, and only the odd Joker remains. Fortunately the break is not as serious as it might be. The Governing Body elected him into an Emeritus Fellowship immediately upon his retirement, and for the next year he will act as Organizing Tutor in French until permanent arrangements can be made.

The Magazine is certain that it speaks on behalf of all Hall men in wishing Richard Fargher a long and happy retirement, and in coupling with this toast the name of Mary his wife, whose kindness and charm and generous hospitality have made the Maison Fargher part of their gift to the life of the Hall.

NORMAN MORRIS whom many generations of Aularians will remember with great affection, retired last summer. His reign as Head Groundsman in the Parks stretches right back to the immediate post-war years, and throughout that time he has been in effect the Hall's groundsman as well, and a very great friend to the Hall. To mark his retirement, Norman and Mrs. Morris dined as guests of the Governing Body, and there was a presentation of cheques from the Senior and Junior members and of a drawing of the Hall. Norman is continuing to live in Oxford and we all wish him a happy and well-deserved retirement.

M.S. NORMAN MORRIS,

THE HISTORY OF THE HALL THE COLLEGE still has a number of copies of An Oxford Hall in Mediaeval Times, autographed by the author Dr. A. B. Emden.

The early history of the Hall is traced down to 1559, and fascinating light is shed on life in the mediaeval university. The book was-originally published by the Clarendon Press in 1927, but revised in , 1968.

Copies are available on application to The Librarian, with a cheque for ÂŁ8.50 (which includes packing and postage), made payable to St. Edmund Hall.

THE CHAPEL fashionable to question the purpose of and indeed the need for a chapel and a chaplain in a college and in a university where practising Christians are in a minority, and where the City provides an abundance of churches of all sizes and altitudes. At the moment we would reply that if we have a regular number of some thirty to forty communicants out of a population of four hundred, the need for a chapel here is greater than that of many parish churches, where not many more than that are drawn from parishes with thousands in their boundaries.

The evening services have continued to be evenly divided between Evensongs and Sung Eucharists and we are now quite familiar with both Rite A and Rite B of the Alternative Service Book, both of which are in regular use. The Chaplain has, however, responded to a complaint that there were now two A.S.B.'s - the Alternative Services Book and the Abandoned Services Book - and from next term we will be using the 1662 Rite at least once a term. The usual large congregation attended the carol services for Advent and Passiontide and again a large procession moved from the Chapel to the Crypt to celebrate the Translation of St. Edmund. The preachers this year have included the Revd. Timothy Ratcliffe, O.P.; the Revd. Peter Southwell; The Revd. Charles Marnham, the O.I.C.C.U. missioner; the

Revd. E. J. C. Davis, Vicar of South Hinksey; the Revd. Howard Biggs; the Revd. Michael Hollings; R. P. H. Davies Esq ., Secretary of the Anti-Slavery Society; the Revd. R. A. Mason, senior tutor of Regent's Park College; and the Chaplain and the Revd. John Cowdrey.

There have been other special occasions, two of them very sad, the other joyful. In the course of the year two young Aularians were killed, Simon Dyke-Wells in a mountaineering accident and Donald Crawshaw in a car crash, and for each of them a Requiem was said in Chapel, attended by their parents, relations and friends. The very large congregation on both occasions testified to the affection they both commanded and to the sorrow their early deaths had caused.

But there was also a time for rejoicing. Three hundred years ago, this past 7th April, in 1682, the Chapel, built by the then Principal, Stephen Penton, was consecrated. As this date fell during the Easter Vacation we decided to celebrate it at a Sung Eucharist on the fourth Sunday of term, with festal music by the choir, and an address by Mr. Cowdrey on the Chapel and its past in these three centuries of Christian life in the Hall. Chapel was full for the occasion and after the service we had on view for the first time the Burne-Jones drawing for one of the panels in the East Window, the splendidly generous gift of the Junior Members in celebration of this occasion.

We also record that since the last Magazine three Aularians have returned to be married in Chapel by Archbishop's Special licence, and two Aularian babies have been carried to Chapel to be baptized.

Pete Burrell retired as Chapel Warden at the end of Michaelmas Term after a year of cheerful and loyal service, and his place was taken by Andrew Burns. Christine Beynon has continued to hold together and train an excellent choir and, with her mastery of the new organ, provided fine music at both Evensong and the Eucharist.

EVEN HOMER NODS ... foibles and faux pas of the great have always been a matter of interest and pleasure to lesser mortals, not only because it pleases us to see pedestals shaken a little, but because they reveal the humanity behind the sometimes forbiddingly perfect public front. Because of this- and also because we believe he himself would be rather d.elighted with a relic so carefully preserved- we venture to publish a shocking revelation about that

great Aularian Principal Dr. A. B. Emden. Little did we suspect that the A be had a record and had once been 'dealt with according to Law' , but our Archivist has discovered a document of which we give a transcription.

'In the County of Berks.

Petty Sessional Division of Abingdon .

To Alfred Brotherston Emden of Lincoln College Oxford.

Whereas Information and Complaint hath this day been laid and made before the undersigned, one of his Majesty' s Justices of the Peace in and for the said County of Berks., for that you on the 14th day of June 1911, at the Parish of North Hinksey in the said County, Being the rider of a certain carriage to wit a bicycle upon a certain highway there situate during the period between one hour after sunset and one hour before sunrise unlawfully did not carry attached to the said bicycle a lamp so constructed and placed as to exhibit a light in the direction in which you were proceeding and so lighted and kept lighted as to afford adequate means of signalling the approach or position of the said bicycle contrary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided.'

At one o'clock on the 26th June 1911, the Abe appeared before the Justices of the Peace at the Guildhall in Abingdon to 'answer the said Information and Complaint', but there the story ends. We were eager to know what punishment was meted out but our enquiries only revealed that Abingdon petty sessional registers were lost and our enquiry had started a search.

Perhaps one day we will discover what this erring Lincoln College undergraduate had to hand over.

The other discovery in the archives is pictorial, and is reproduced elsewhere in the Magazine. We all knew that the Abe was a draftsman but thought of his skill being used only to depict mediaeval tiles or wild flowers. Here we have a self portrait of himself in preexam panic, caught in the fury of last-minute revision. Comforting to know that a man who was honoured with Honorary Doctorates by both ancient universities went through the same torments and doubts as other undergraduates.

THE ARCHIVES 'SIMPLEX EIUS prandium,/ margarina, panis;/modicum stipendium,/ domus haud immanis,/ vultu tamen hilari,/ inscius pudoris/ ridet, quia proprii/ avidus laboris./ Collocat in ordine/ 10

prisca munimenta,/ forsan ex origine/ squalida obtenta' - such, by tradition, is the fortune of an archivist, which I have now shared for a year since I began to look after the archives of the Hall. I suppose it requires me to try and conserve whatever documents from our past may perhaps be valued by future generations who may be interested in any aspect of our life and history, and also to make them available to inquirers who have good reason to consult them. Our archives are rich and interesting. For a long time most of our older and more valuable records have been in the safe custody of the Bodleian. But we still have in the Hall such treasures as the Charter and the Benefactors' Book, the Principal's Leiger Book beginning in the late seventeenth century, and battels books from 1695 until the advent of more complex accounting in the early 1920's. Moreover, the whole story of the Hall's gradual deliverance from the tutelage of Queen's and its growth into the great and glorious college that it now is, is richly documented. We have exceptionally full records of undergraduate clubs and activities from the 1870's to the present day. And besides the records of the past, there is the task of selecting, arranging, and conserving all that is worth keeping of the flood of paper that flows endlessly round us nowadays. In addition, we have a good photographic archive. We have, in a word, the evidence of our past and present that becomes an institution of our venerable antiquity. We shall hope to publish some items from it from time to time in the Magazine. The Archivist is always glad to hear of material that might be considered for inclusion in the archives.

Perhaps the most important material at the present stage would be any club and society minute books that might be in private hands.

H.E.J .C. THE CASE OF THE MISSING LIBRARY or parvis, over the porch which shelters the main entrance to the Hall library in St. Peter-in-the-East, there have been for the last ten or so years, on one of the top shelves, eleven leather bound volumes, each bearing a distinctive motif embossed and gilded on the front and back covers. The motif is that of a fish, up-ended on its tail, and neatly executed with fine detail of scales and fins; the lettering reads: E. LIBR. BIBL. S.PET. AD. OR. OXON, with the date 1841. These eleven volumes, which are of a theological nature, (for example: Homilies, Prayers, Commentaries, Laud's Autobiography, IN THE LITTLE ROOM,

11

Walton's Lives), are all that remain to us of the one time Parish Library, and were donated to St. Edmund Hall by Mr. Neil R. Ker and Sir Basil Blackwell. Of the others, except for a number bought by or deposited in the Bodleian, there is no trace.

These volumes have intrigued me, and it has always been my hope that one day we will be able to find at least some of the rest of this library. It is with this in mind that I have made a practice of showing the books to visitors to the library, requesting that they let the college know if they ever come across an 1841 St. Peter-in-theEast volume. One such visitor - last spring - was the Revd.

John Thornton, who came up to the Hall in 1950, and his response was an immediate interest and offer to help to try and trace some of the missing volumes. With his enthusiasm and help we have delved into the history of this library, and although some of this may be common knowledge to Aularians through earlier numbers of the Hall Magazine, I hope it may prove of interest to report our findings.

The first step was to consult Dr. D. M. Barratt of the Western Manuscripts Department in the Bodleian, who is in charge of Local Records. With her guidance we found, along with the Parish Registers from 1559, Vestry Minutes from 1769, Poor Law Papers 1632-1913, and other documents relating to St. Peter-in-the-East, a list of the books which were in the Parish Library at the time of their disposal in 1959. There is also a reference to the Manuscript Catalogue which has in front: 'The present library of St. Peter-in-the-East was established by the Revd. W. K. Hamilton, vicar, August 15th 1841'.

This Bodleian typescript also states that: 'The catalogue shows that most of the books were of his (Hamilton's) gift. There are about 250 volumes of which 71 are earlier than 1800, the earliest being the Homilies of 1623.

Excellent condition. Also Bible of 1611-12 (She bible) in case in church. Many books have a label inside 'Sold by C. I. Stewart, 11 King William Street West, Strand London.' Eight volumes of Bishop Partrick's works, 1703, have the round Woburn Abbey label inside and numbers from 1190-1197.

Stewart's label also here'.

It is likely that 197 of these volumes were sold by the Parochial Church Council to Blackwell's in August 1959, and we know that 38 were bought by the Bodleian. Presumably the discrepancy between this number and the 250 mentioned above, can be 12

accounted for by the usual wear, tear and loss which all libraries suffer. The documents relating to this sale are in the safe keeping of the Parochial Church Council of St. Cross Church, and they show that the faculty enabling the sale was granted by the Diocese of Oxford, and state that the proceeds were to be applied towards the restoration fund for St. Peter-in-the-East. The sum raised amounted to ÂŁ68, which does not seem a very profitable deal in the 1980's, and even 20 years ago would not have gone very far towards restoration costs. But it was an earnest of the determination of the parishioners of St. Peter-in-the-East to raise the ÂŁ10,000 essential to ensure the restoration and continuing use of their parish church.

The next step did not prove so fruitful, although it may eventually lead to recovering a volume or two. We visited Blackwell's Antiquarian Centre in Fyfield Manor, where we met Mr. A. E. East, who had received the 197 volumes, and been in charge of preparing them for sale from the main shop in Broad Street. Unfortunately (but understandably), apart from those books which we know were bought by Bodley, and Mr. Ker subsequently given to the Hall, there is no evidence of who bought them. They were sold as individual items straight from Blackwell's second-hand shelves, which at that time, I remember, were in a galleried room at the far end of the main shop, which now houses English Literature. However, Mr. East listened sympathetically to our enquiries, and I am sure that he will inform us if any of these special volumes come full circle on to Blackwell's shelves again.

So far it has been the Bodleian and St. Cross Church which have provided us with information, and Bodley, indeed, has gone further and been the means of restoring some of the missing volumes, for apart from the lists and other papers mentioned above, there were also deposited five works and the Register of Borrowers. With the Bodleian's approval we sought and obtained permission through the Revd. P. Corn well (Vicar of the University Church of St. Mary the Virgin and Parish of St. Cross with St. Peter-in-the-East), from his Parish Council, to have these works returned, which, in the event, proved to be in 12 volumes, or with the Register, 13. There are three single works, and two incomplete sets, and none of the volumes is in good repair, which will account for their not having been in the 1959 sale. But we are very pleased to have them, and can now count our holding as 23 volumes, plus the Register of Borrowers. The Register itself is of some considerable interest, and, like the rest of the collection, bears the 1841 Ex Libris on front and back.

13

There is no telling where the rest of this Parish Library has gone: perhaps across to the United States? or in the private libraries of retired clergymen or lying forlorn in a junk shop? If anyone should come across these distinctive volumes, please let us know, for if any are for sale, John Thornton has very kindly offered to purchase and present them to the college library.

GARDEN NEWS of garden news is a sad one. It reads more like an obituary, for we suffered many grievous losses on the night of the Great Frost, in March. The Oxford Mail headline was 'Moscow-l6°C: Oxford-22°C' and in this terrible cold many trees and shrubs shrivelled and died not only in Hall, but in many college gardens and in the Botanical Gardens. Our saddest loss was the large ceanothus at the doorway to the crypt of St. Peter's which was a splendid summer sight with its mass of deep blue flowers. It appeared utterly dead and we cut it back to its central stump, but new leaves have suddenly started to sprout and we live in hopes of its continued growth. The blue gum tree to the north of the library was younger and weaker and expired without a fight, as did its elder brother in the J.C.R. quad. There and in the Whitehall quad there must have been an even more vicious miniclimate, for many shrubs and small trees perished. Replanting has therefore taken up much of the gardener's time, and it is good to report that the new imports have all taken, and are already starting to fill the gaps.

The only new work has been the replanting of the small bed near the back door to the lodgings. We have removed the rather wretched strip of grass which was always trodden and patchy, given over the whole bed to earth, and planted it with evergreen and variegated shrubs and conifers. It prospers and, curiously enough, people have stopped walking on it!

The silver birch in the Whitehall quad continues to grow despite the attack by some drunk or lunatic who removed, with some force and perseverance, one of the lower branches. The Chaplain's fury and description of suitable sufferings for the offender were indeed terrible to hear.

THIS SECOND INSTALMENT

14

FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE J.C.R. I AM AFRAID that I must start this letter on the same subject as my predecessor, that of females or as they have been more properly described non-males. For this last year has seen girls in all three undergraduate years, the first female J.C.R. official, and now the first Old Aularianes.

Yet the attitude towards the girls has remained much the same.

At a recent J.C.R. meeting a motion was proposed that 'the J.C.R. regretted the fateful day when women were admitted to the college and recommended the setting up of a select committee to vet any future admissions and to recommend transfer for unsuitable members'. As one 'chap' put his argument, 'They've cost the college a fortune - before they arrived we never needed such expensive items as washing machines and irons'. In the light of such persuasive arguments the voting was close, and only an accidental movement by the president ensured that the motion was carried.

But maybe it has something to do with the presence of girls that the cultural, yes honestly, the cultural side of the Hall is beginning to surface. The Games Room, previously adorned with 'pin-ball' and 'space invaders' has given way to its new function as a Music Room, whilst Trinity Term saw the first ever St. Edmund Hall Arts Festival which brought to the renowned cultural centres such as the graveyard and the J.C.R. party room the unusual combination of New Guinea wood carvings, feminist poetry, and contemporary dance. Hall men could do nothing but stare in disbelief.

Yet any fear that this upsurge in the 'arts' in the broadest sense of that term, has in any way affected the sporting success of the Hall, must be immediately dispelled, as no doubt the reports elsewhere in the Magazine will show. Suffice it to say that cuppers victories were obtained in Rugby, Hockey, Athletics, Squash and even in that strange northern game of Rugby League, whilst the Hall can also boast the captains of university Cricket, Boxing, Squash, Athletics, Tennis and Ice Hockey, as well as countless other blues in nearly all sports. Indeed Vincents Club is beginning to look remarkably like S.E.H. Buttery.

Without question the academic highlight of the year is the long awaited return of the J.C.R. to University Challenge, following a few years' absence due to a ban imposed for 'out of order' behavior during the 'filming of the Hall's last attempt to display its dubious ability. But a grovelling letter to Bamber Gascoigne ensured that at least we'd get a chance of a repeat performance.

Hopefully we'll be on your screens after October - though it probably won't be suitable for family viewing.

More importantly the J.C.R. continues to be heavily involved in local voluntary work, both individually with several Hall people spending time with disabled kids, and together, the now annual Christmas party for over 100 underprivileged children again proving to be a major success, albeit an absolute riot. Very similar in fact to the 'formal' Christmas dinner which follows the same evening, the only difference being the kids are replaced by the Principal and the Fellows.

So much more could be said. The Ball sold out within a few hours of going public; Ragweek with Mr. Obnoxious a great success; sporadic attacks on New College over the graveyard wall:-suffice it to say the Hall remains very much as you left it.

THE HALL BALL

The Jubilee Ball of 1982 - the 25th jubilee of the granting of our Charter - though not this year the cheapest in Oxford was obviously the most popular. The weeks of planning were obviously going to be worthwhile when so many tickets sold during the few days when sales were confined to Hall men and women, and when, on the first day of open sales, the queue stretched down Queen's Lane into the High and someone had to pluck up the courage to tell the tail-end that there was no hope.

The one thing outside the power of Graham Clempson, the Chairman, and his active Committee, was the weather, although they did approach the Chaplain, as Senior Member, to intercede.

As it was, a dull and threatening day started to clear at tea-time and all was well, with clear skies and a pleasant warmth for the thousand odd who attended.

Again floodlights and spots emphasized the beauty of the Front Quad and the library garden: again the elegant and colourful marquees and lanterns; again the elegant and beautiful girls and their immaculate escorts. It seems the days of jeans and sloppiness, of wilful informality, are departed, and this correspondent is delighted.

There was much music and a lot of noise. The top band this year was The Stranglers, well known, very expensive, and very loud, and around the hour when their battery of amplifiers assaulted the ear, Caspar's Engine, Clint Eastwood and the Flying Saucers provided their special variety of music. It is impossible to cover all the entertainment which was offered in the many newly-christened parts of the Hall - The Outer Limits, Room at the Top, the Idle Ritz, the Twilight Zone and Jukebox Junction. There was folk music, blues, barber quintet, and a nostalgic thirteen piece orchestra

ANOTHER GREAT SUCCESS.

17

which brought out the real dancers, and separated the men from the boys.

Cabaret, cocktails, films, Punch & Judy, string quartets, madrigals and mime, classical guitar and clever magicians - and even a fire-eating drag queen.

Gabriel provided the usual splendid cold collation and this year the barbeque gave no trouble. It had been designed by Gabriel himself and constructed under his own supervision. It is, as the Domestic Bursar said, 'The Rolls-Royce of barbeques', and will, we hope, give years of succulent service.

A steel band led up to breakfast at 6.00, when the survivors were led to their punts at Magdalen Bridge and madrigal singers serenaded them as they drifted, like something out of Brideshead, into the early morning mists.

Best thanks to Graham Clempson, the chairman, and to all the men and women of his committee who helped to make all this possible, and to. the countless Hall staff who toiled before, during and after the event.

THE AULARIAN to report the continued appearance of the Hall newspaper in this its third year of existence. Volume 3 Number 1 appeared in October 1981, but there was then a rather ominous gap, when no Christmas number was issued and when Hilary Term was without its Aularian. A Trinity Term number at last appeared with a good pastiche cover of a well-known undergraduate comic and the title 'life's just DANDY now the Aularian's back!' For the bibliographer this ought to be 'Volume 3 number 2' and I hope the librarian will file it under that. Apart from a rather boring insistence on large-quantity drinking and vomiting - or chundering - which reflects only a limited part of Hall life, this free Hall newspaper continues to be a lively and informative addition to the term's reading list. Long may it thrive.

WE ARE DELIGHTED

THE LONDON DINNER THE ST. EDMUND HALL Association's London Dinner was once more held at Simpson's in the Strand on Tuesday 12 January 1982. It was a difficult time. Snow, fog and a rail strike starting that very day made it difficult for many to reach the dinner and even more difficult to get home afterwards. One hundred and one Aularians had accepted, but, in the event, eighty seven or eighty six of us - according to whether you accept the count of Bishop Finch or Simpson's Head Waiter - sat down to a warming and substantial Simpson's English dinner.

Sir William Nield, in his first London speech as President, welcomed the company who had braved the perils of the journey, especially the large contingent of younger members of the Association. He thanked Francis Finch for arranging the dinner under such trying circumstances, thanked those responsible for the Magazine and Directory. The appeal, he reported, had had a 60Jo response to date, a small percentage of contributors, but most generous contributions. He looked forward to this summer when the Hall's first lady graduates would don their ermine, and looked forward to the next dinner and the next toast of 'Floreat Aula'.

The Principal, replying, was aware that this was an historic dinner - the last possible purely masculine occasion, for this year we would produce our first lady Old Aularians, and he looked forward to them gracing our tables at future London dinners. The Hall, he reported, now seven centuries old, was as good as ever despite Sir Joseph, and its old timbers sound and strong, with all the dead watch beetles conquered. He paid tribute to the retiring President, Jack Lee, and his officers, and thanked them for leading him firmly and encouragingly in these past inaugural years. He especially praised Brian Forrest who, with his amazingly accurate budgeting in these crazy times, was well in the runnning for Geoffrey Howe's job. ¡ The Principal was not unaware of an especially rumbustious younger contingent in the body of the assembly who were perhaps in danger of confusing this august occasion with a rugger cupper supper. Their insistent calls brought the Chaplain to his feet, to remind them that as far as their generation was concerned he was Dean, and their might be a momentary danger of him reverting to type. He urged them to observe the higher tables and learn how to grow old with grace and dignity.

Later in the evening John Wells made an appearance, fresh from 'Who's for Dennis', and added his hilarity to the closing scenes of the evening.

21

The guests of the Association at the dinner were The Principal, the President of the Junior Common Room, M. J. Bishop, and the President of the M.C.R., P. G. Stokowski.

ST. EDMUND HALL ASSOCIATION MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING-12 JANUARY 1982 THE 1982 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the St. Edmund Hall Association was held at Simpson's -in-the-Strand, London WC2, on Tuesday 12 January 1982 at 6.25 p.m., Sir William Nield GCMG KCB MA presiding.

32 members were present.

Apologies were received from (inter alios): Revd. Dr. J. N. D. Kelly: J. B. Allan, L. D. A. ~Baron, M. G. M. Groves, G. L. H. R. Shield, J. D. Shortridge, R. Wayne, R. A. G. White.

1. MINUTES The Minutes of the last Meeting, held l3 January 1981, having been published in the 1980-81 Magazine, were taken as read, confirmed and signed. There were no matters arising not on the agenda.

2. PRESIDENT'S REPORT a) Charitable Status (3 of last) Sir William Nield announced with pleasure that the Charity Commissioners had informed the Association on 12 February 1981 that it had been entered in the Central Register of Charities: the Inland Revenue had also informed us, on 20 February 1981, that they accepted us as a Charity. As a result we were now able to secure better returns on our investments, and these were now tax-free: moreover a 22

sizeable tax refund had been obtained. He congratulated the Hon. 'Treasurer on this most satisfactory result, on which he had made most of the running. b) 1980-81 Magazine He congratulated the Editor, Revd . E. G. Midgley, and the Principal on what must have been about the 50th issue. The obituary notices on Rowley Gullick and Bill Urry were particularly appreciated and Sasha Wernberg-M0ller's article on the Penton letters invited further insights. into the Hall's past. c) 1981 Directory Although this was technically late on schedule it was vital to members and to the Association for the information contained and was also an essential document for the Hall as a register of members. He congratulated the Hall authorities on this achievement. d) Thoughts on Extension of the Association's Organisation by Area In his maiden remarks to the Executive Committee at its Meeting at the Hall on 27 June 1981 - after that most successful Garden Party at Norham St. Edmund so generously provided by the Hall authorities - he had promised to distribute a paper to the Committee members on how the extra dimensions provided by the computer on the geographical and age distribution of Association members could be turned to the Association's benefit. This paper could have been by now in a form communicable to all members had it not been for his major internal operation, plus hiccoughs in the computer and the resultant delay in getting the Directory out. His aim however remained resolute and definite:-to get out a workable proposition: and between him and the computer it was now 'all systems Go!' e) The New Buildings Appeal The facts, said Sir William, were clear: 360 members had subscribed ÂŁ50,000, and well-wishers such as Banks another ÂŁ1,000 - this out of 4,000 members with known addresses and 1,000 unknown. This failure to achieve more than a sixth of the target at this stage was another reason for pressing ahead with ideas for an area organisation, despite the discouragements of the present economic climate.

The Principal took up this point: compared to the last occasion the response was a quarter down at this stage in fact and on expectation. Those individual contributions that had been received were however higher than before, and if everyone would only respond at that level we should be home and dry. One consolation this time was that as a DIY operation there was no professional fundraising organisation to syphon off 200Jo of the take; another that the non-member well-wishers had been more generous. Response had been low in quantity rather than in quality: there had been much pleading of 'hard times' and 'this is the fifth Appeal since the mid-sixties'. The pre-War generation had come out best: the immediate post-war one remained stodgy and the Principal wondered whether the basic approach had been right.

HON. TREASURER'S REPORT

a) Charitable Status

B. M. Forrest filled in the details of the momentous announcement made by the President. The Inland Revenue rebate'was ÂŁ752.92, and after taking advice from the Hall's investment advisers and in consultation with the Hon. Auditor the Association's holdings had been re-invested in Gilts and local government stocks at much more favourable rates of interest than were previously possible. b) Accounts for the Financial Year 1 August 1980-31 July 1981 These had been audited and published in the 1980-81 Magazine with a note that they would be submitted for the approval of members at the forthcoming AGM on 12 January 1982: this was now sought.

23

i) Income & Expenditure Income: at £3,732, £1,150 up on the previous year, largely owing to the first receipt of interest from the Emden Bequest and the Income Tax refund on our attainment of charitable status.

Expenditure: at £3,356, £1,408 up, largely on increased postage and stationery costs and the £1,000 grant to the New Buildings Fund.

Surplus: £76, compared with the 'traditional' forecast of £294 made at this time last year. The divergence was largely due to unforcastable re-investment technicalities on attainment of charitable status and the fact that payments by Directory advertisers had not been received by the end of the financial year. ii) Balance Sheet Assets were, however, £376 up at £4,630 (£2,324 invested, £2,306 in Bank an exceptionally high figure needed to meet the imminent' Directory bill). The General Fund stood at £2,180 (£76 up) and the Directory Fund (awaiting disgorgements seen above) at £2,450 (£300 up) . c) Outlook for the Current Financial Year 1 August 1981-31 July 1982 The Executive Committee had just voted an increase in the allocation to the Directory· Fund of £100. Even assuming, however, that it made the same allocation as last year to other Hall funds at its next Meeting in June 1982 and that postage continued to soar a surplus of some £53 on 'traditional' operations could be confidently forecast. d) Emden Bequest Under the terms of the will of the former Principal, the late Dr. Emden, the Executive Committee had decided to devote the interest due in July 1982 (some £220) to help defray the ever-rising costs of the Magazine and to enable it to maintain its sparkle. As agreed under Minute 9 of the Executive Committee held 13 January 1981, the Association had for the first time sent the Principal the wherewithal to fill the Rose Bowl given to Dr. Emden for his 90th birthday with red roses on the anniversary, 22 October 1981.

The Balance Sheet and annexed Income and Expenditure Account for the year ended 31 July 1981 were adopted unanimously.

The President commented that we were continuing to live within our income while still giving our usual grants to the Hall. We were thus fulfilling our aims, and that is why we were given charitable status. He congratulated the Hon. Treasurer: the sums involved were not large, but they needed - and got - the application of considerable devotion.

4. ELECTIONS The following were elected/re-elected unaminously on the nomination of the Executive Committee, no other nominations having been received: Hon. Treasurer 1982: B. M. Forrest re-elected Hon. Secretary 1982: H . A . F. Radley re-elected Members of the Executive Committee by matriculation groups :Up to 1934: G. L. H. R. Shield, retiring by rotation, re-elected.

1935~44: J. P. 'de Courcy Meade, elected, vice L. D. A . Baron, retiring by rotation but not seeking re-election. · R. J. L. Breese, retiring by rotation, re-elected . f945-54: R. A. Farrand, retiring by rotation, re-elected.

1955-64: R. A. G. White, retiring by rotation, re-elected.

1965-74: 24

The President thanked Mr. Baron for his six years' service on the Executive Committee and welcomed back Mr. de Courcy Meade, who had served previously 1966-71. He reported however that the Executive Committee had beeri somewhat exercised over the procedural problem set in this instance, involving the legitimate occurrence of a vacancy at short notice just before Christmas 1981. It would have been impossible to notify the whole membership. The Committee members for the matriculation group concerned were informed and were actively seeking a candidate: but the full Committee was not, and there was some feeling that it should have been - although the requirements of the Constitution had been met on every point.

In situations like these, said the President, it behoved us to improve our procedures as far as it was possible. The ideal was to circularise everyone, but this was clearly out of the question. Failing this, the full Executive Committee should be told (provided that time allowed) so that as representative of the membership for each generation it would be in a position to make the best possible nomination in the circumstances. The whole matter would be tabled at the next Meeting of the Executive Committee on 26 June 1982.

5. HON. AUDITOR J. R. Paul was re-appointed unanimously as Hon. Auditor 1982.

6. DATE OF NEXT MEETING Tuesday 11 January 1983 at Simpson's-in-the-Strand, 6.15 p.m.

There being no further business, the Meeting closed at 7.00 p.m.

THE REUNION of Old Members was held on Saturday 26 June on a day which had threatened and produced rain until the evening when the skies cleared, and sherry on the lawn as well as drinking and gossip late into the early hours, became not only possible but pleasurable.

There was no garden party this year, and the first event of the day was Evensong in a packed Chapel with the old familiar lessons splendidly read and the old familiar hymns loudly sung before the congregation joined the crowd on the lawn - a large gathering of some 200 Aularians - and repaired to dinner.

The Principal, in what was to be his farewell speech, welcomed the old faces which, even after only three years, had become familiar. He felt he must explain his departure by the service record of his predecessor - 49 years for Dr. Moore, 22 for Dr. Emden, 28 for Dr. Kelly. With three Principals spanning a century there would be only 30 in a millenium, and he had decided to improve the average . He had become convinced that the best-liked Principal was a Past Principal, so why postpone the day? He thanked all those who had been so kind on his departure with words and gifts - especially a beautiful silver salver engraved with the arms of the Hall which had been presented to him that afternoon by Sir William Nield on behalf of the Association. He was particularly sorry that John Kelly was not present to receive his public thanks for the guidance and encouragement he had given him in three not always easy years. He praised the Hall, a place where he had never been lonely, and admitted he would miss many, but not all, of the duties of its Principal. The Hall was in good health both academically and in sport. Cups for Rugby, Athletics and Real Tennis were on our trophy shelf, and we had held our own high on the River. He gave the latest figures on the New Buildings Appeal which had, up to date, produced ÂŁ80,000 from 390 donors. If only the rest of the constituency could respond as generously, we would be home and dry. Once again he welcomed the company, bade them farewell and proposed, for the last time, the Principalian 'Floreat Aula'.

Sir William Nield felt he ought to say something, if only goodbye. He had felt that when Sir Ieuan was elected it had seemed fitting to him that, in an age dominated by science and technology, the Hall should have as its Principal a scientist of high standing and with a wide knowledge of the many applications of science, of Government and industry. He expressed his thanks for what the Principal had done for the Hall in his all-too-short term of office, but recognised that such a range of activity was bound to exact a high price in terms of time and energy, which became higher as the years passed. Sooner or later we must all make concessions to Anno Domini. He wished the Principal well in the many other activities which would now receive his undivided attention, hoped he would have more time for private enjoyment of life, and that we would see him from time to time in the future.

There were present at the Dinner, the Principal and the following Fellows: Mr. R. E. Alton, Vice-Principal; Professor G. R. Alien; Mr. A. Biggs; Dr. P . J. Collins; the Revd. H. E. J. Cowdrey; Mr. R. W. Daniel; Professor I. M. L. Donaldson; Mr. J. P. D. Dunbabin; Dr. R. Fargher; Mr. J. C. B. Gosling; Rear Admiral G. C. Leslie; the Revd. E. G. Midgley; Dr. R. B. Mitchell; Dr. G. D. Ramsay; Dr. D.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE BOAT CLUB Captains: I. McEWAN AND B. H. P. MINNEY THE YEAR started strangely with an almost immediate change in the Captain, but the change was effected without disharmony. Novices played a rather smaller part in this year's Boat Club, but there was a reasonable entry for Christ Church regatta, the first internal rowing event of the academic year.

Torpids was an event full of interest this year, with the sad demise of the William Smith containing the 2nd VIII on the first day (the 1st VIII, for the first time, rowed in the Summer VIII's boat for Torpids). However, the problems of the lower boats were doubly redeemed by the four bumps of the 1st Boat, to 7th place on the river.

S.E.H. were then represented at the Head of River Race at Tideway, finishing 133rd out of a Field (or River!) of 407. We were also the 3rd fastest University crew, very creditable as we were unable to put in a whole Torpids crew. We then launched an appeal to 'Raise the Bill Smith', consisting of a sponsored Row to Henley (and back). In two days we had reached Henley and got back as far as Reading, but the last leg had to be postponed until the beginning of the Trinity term because of stormy weather. The replacement boat was duly bought, and named the 'Stephen Penton' after the founder of the chapel in 1682. After a few teething troubles, at Mortlake regatta and on the Isis, it proved itself in Eights by giving the 2nd VIII one bump and the Women's VIII three bumps. The first VIII made a showing at Wallingford and Thames Ditton regattas, and a great time was had by all, capped off by retaining its place of 6th on the river for Eights week, thanks to the coaching of Dr. McEwan, Mr. Winer and this year's Rower of the Year, S.C.R. member Mr. Ron Daniels (who also stroked the 2nd VIII).

There has been considerable interest in Oriel Regatta at the end of this Term (although at the time of press the results are not out), and I wish all the best to next year's Boat Club with their new 1st shell.

B.H.P.M. Stop Press: The Boat Club acknowledges with great gratitude the gift of ÂŁ200 from the St. Edmund Hall Association, towards the purchase of its new boat.

THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB Cuppers Captain: R. LUDDINGTON League Captain: R. S. GRAINGER Secretary: N. STEVENSON

THE SEASON 1981-2 saw another successful year for Hall rugby. The Michaelmas term saw the 1st XV win the league, the 2nd XV gain promotion and the Hilarians finish top of their division. Good spirit and team effort througout the club was rewarded by the impressive points record of the 1st XV. PI. 13 W. 12 L. 1 Points for: 508 Points against: 56 The Hilary term saw the usual continuation of good form with a successful Cuppers run. The Cuppers team remained undefeated for the third successive year beating Christ Church in the final 24 - 6. This supremacy in inter-college rugby was later confirmed with a win in the Sevens Competition.

43

Highlights of the season included a tour to the South West and two eventful trips to Cambridge.

Congratulations go to R. Luddington and S. Barnes on the award of their Blues.

THE CRICKET CLUB

Captain: N. J . J. HOLCROFT IN A SEASON blessed by marvellous weather, the college 1st XI played an average of three games a week throughout the term, achieving considerable success, with 14 games being won. The college also lived up to its seeded position in Cricket Cuppers by reaching the semi-final, where unfortunately the match against New College was lost due to the absence of four University players from our team.

A number of notable individual performances was recorded this year: in batting, Dusty Miller (when available from University cricket) and James Rothman scored 400 and 450 runs respectively; in bowling, Nigel Holcroft and newcomer Rick Smyth took 35 and 30 wickets respectively, and Rothman also took over 20 wickets.

A couple of mixed matches were also played providing an opportunity for a game of cricket for quite a few people who had never played before, and these were greatly enjoyed by all concerned.

With, at the time of producing this report, a four-match college tour of Guernsey still to look forward to, this promises to round off a very enjoyable and¡ successful season.

N.J.J.H. THE ATHLETIC CLUB

Captain: C. B. EWART ONCE AGAIN the Hall won the league and cuppers in magnificent style. Despite reports from the Cherwell, Wadham came second with 200 points to the 319 of S.E.H. The points came from 17 firsts out of a possible 42, six from the throwers, three from the jumpers and eight from the runners. Another win came from our notorious pullers in the tug-of-war. Unfortunately there was no-one else to pull with.

In the varsity match, blues were awarded to P. Mbu and reawarded to A. Best and J. McCabe who is the new O.U.A.C. president.

Lastly, congratulations to Richard Oliver for being voted the new Hall athletics captain.

C.B.E.

THE SQUASH CLUB

Captain: C. S. 0. FEAR FOR THE SECOND YEAR running the Hall had by far the strongest cuppers side, and we strolled through the competition losing only one rubber. The final against Lincoln was won 5 - 0 which emphasized the talent within the college. Four of the team were Blues (three from this year).

44

Our strength however, did not extend to the league side which had two undistinguished teams, particularly in Hilary Term , in the course of which we were relegated from the 1st division. Early promise proved deceptive and despite being keen, members of the team were not experienced enough to turn hard work into success. Nevertheless enough players were interested this year for us to start a 2nd team, which will be led next season by J. J. McAleer.

Cuppers Team: C. R. Jones, C. I. Hardy, W. A. Hollington, R. G. P . Ellis (all Blues), C. S. 0 . Fear, J. D . Rothman.

C.S.O.F. THE TENNIS CLUB

Captain: C. S. 0.

FEAR

THIS SEASON was again a successful one for the Hall 1st VI. We followed up last year's promotion by winning the 1st division, from close rivals Queen's. The first match against University resulted in a 7 - 2 defeat but that was the league side's only setback. The high points were 7 - 2 and 8 - 1 wins against St. Catz. (the favourites) and Wadham respectively in our last two games.

In Cuppers we were rather less successful losing a hard fought quarter-final tie against Hertford 5 - 4.

Hall members proved particularly keen to play tennis this summer and since the first VI was made up almost entirely of 2nd years we have a chance to continue our successful run into next season.

C.S.O.F.

THE LADIES' TENNIS CLUB

Captain: ALISON BLOW LADIES' TENNIS IN S.E.H. is not yet firmly established, but growing, in numbers of those playing and in enthusiasm.

We were knocked out of Cuppers early, but still managed to play a few friendly matches, the mixed games proving the more popular. As is necessary, enjoyment was more important than winning, and happily the Hall courts were much used outside matches. I am sure that inter-collegiate success will come in the future, if enthusiasm continues.

A.B .

THE CROSS-COUNTRY CLUB

Captain: J . H. MCCABE THE SEASON was singularly unsuccessful but Hall Colours were nonetheless awarded to: C. Cheeseman, M. McDermott, R. Oliver, D. Snelling, F. Mason, G .

Alchin, P . Skokowski.

The S.E.H. Relay, however, thanks to Chris Cheeseman, was an outstanding success and thank you to all those who put in such good work. here, especially on the day.

Congratulations to Richard Oliver on his appointment as Captain next year. As yet we still need a Secretary.

J.H.McC. 45

THE SWIMMING AND WATER POLO CLUB

Captain: J . G. CLARK

THE CLOSURE of the Cowley pool has unfortunately meant that Swimming and Water-Polo cuppers have been postponed until Michaelmas 1982.

However, congratulations are offered to Crispin Eley, and Mark Waiters, for their Swimming Blue and Half-Blue respectively, and to Crispin Eley, Mark Waiters and John Clark, for their Half-Blues in water-polo.

J.C.

THE DARTS CLUB

Captain: N. J. J. HOLCROFf

THIS SEASON was a very successful one for the college Darts team - certainly the most successful for the last few years. The 1st team finished an impressive 3rd in the 1st Division, and the 2nd team, re-formed this year after a couple of years, inactivity, shoUld gain promotion from the 4th Division, pending a play-off match with Worcester College.

There was an inaugural Darts club tour to Cambridge this year, with the team recording two victories against colleges and gaining a draw against what was effectively the Cambridge University 2nd team. Also, the holding of the first ever Darts Club Dinner showed the popularity of the club within the college, and hopefully this will continue in the future. Next year's captain will be Phi! Knight, and he would be pleased to hear from anyone wishing to play darts next season.

N.J.J.H.

THE HOCKEY CLUB

Captain: D. WRIGHT

Secretary: D. N. CLAYTON

A WELL-BALANCED Hockey Cuppers XI, spearheaded by Johnny 'Boy' North and Dave Wright, did what St. Edmund Hall had failed to do for at least fifteen years (no-one can remember beyond that) by winning the Cuppers competition. Having scraped through the first two rounds, coming back from the dead and 4- 1 down against Brasenose to win 5-4, Hall came into its own in the semi-final and final, disposing of both New and St. John's by four goals to one. Mention must be made of 'Buster' Ewatt and 'Sandy' Findlay the front runners. John Hughes, the Rhodesian in gym-shoes, Dave Clayton the treasurer, Richard Head the Queen's boy, and Tom Bartlett, the writer of this report.

The league season progressed in stops and starts, depending on who blew the whistle. There was always difficulty choosing eleven men from the countless enthusiasts, but the selectors tended to rely on such stalwarts as Neil May, John Stephen, Jai Pathak and Janjeev Agrawal. The latter before the 1981-2 season, had never played in a winning Hall hockey team, so he must have appreciated fine victories over New, Hertford, and many other that I cannot remember. Anyway, we finished about third in the division and hope to do even better next year.

Thank you to all those who turned out for Hall, Dave Clayton for-organisational and financial aid, and all those who at one stage or another captained the side, including Dave Frisk.

T.B .

THE LADIES' HOCKEY CLUB

Captain: KA THERINE FINUCANE Secretary: CHRIS TRACEY Goalkeeper: BEv CLARKE THIS SEASON, the Ladies Hockey Club suffered from the many talents of its members, often having to field a nine woman team. Never daunted, the teams gave of their best with lots of enthusiasm, Chris Tracey even sustaining a broken nose in her eagerness to get the ball.

We would like to thank all the women who appeared on the hockey field and wish next year's captain, Lorraine Wilde, and secretary, Lindsay Snelling, the best of seasons.

K.F.

THE CROQUET CLUB

Captain: J. S. MADGWICK CROQUET DREW an unusually large and enthusiastic response this term, and consequently we managed to put six teams into the Cuppers competition. From here, however, things started to deteriorate . Only two of our teams managed to reach the second round despite valiant efforts to try to put off the opposition . Richard Grainger's team was well supported by drunken Hall-men hurling abuse at the Worcester players; and Paul Cubbon's team attempted to lull the opposition into a false sense of security by pretending not to know the difference between AllEngland and Advanced rules. These attempts failed though, and only Steve Cavalier and Simon Ramage managed to join the first team in the next stage, when both teams went out. An enjoyable term, nevertheless, and thanks to those who played. Congratulations also to Dave Preston for playing for the University in this year's Varsity match.

J.S.M .

THE CYCLING CLUB

Captain: A. I. Ross THE 1982 SEASON has been a successful one for Teddy Hall's cyclists. Alistair Ross the O.U.C.C. secretary won a second half-blue in the Varsity Match with a personal best time of 56 mins. 35 secs. for the 25 mile time-trial. The Oxford team who beat Cambridge for the first time in eleven years also improved the Varsity Match team record by nearly seven minutes. Nick Senechal was very unlucky to miss a half-blue with a 59.15 ride and earlier in the season was one of the few riders to complete the gruelling British Student Sports Federation (B.S.S.F.) Road Race championship, held in freezing rain over a hilly 52 mile course.

A.I.R. THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB

Captain: T. Ev ANS

Secretary: M. CAMPBELL

DEPRIVED OF our captain's leadership for the opening three games of the 1981-82 season, the first XI slumped to three defeats and the bottom of the league table.

The exuberant Mason returned, pride - as the only team never to be relegated from the first division - returned, a skilled squad was by trial and error found, 47

and first eleven football was rejuvenated. We clambered from the bottom of the table to fifth position, trouncing league leaders Oriel 5- 1 in the process. The great memories of the season are of an unshaven Gerry Gillens fearsome tackling at the heart of the midfield; of the silky skills of Rick Smythe when he deigned to show them, the defeat of Merton from 2 - 0 down, 'jobber' Willis always managing somehow to be Here or Hereabouts at the right time, of the football club dinner and the defeat of Worcester the day after.

Mention should also be made of the 3rd XI who, under the leadership of Andy Wilson, won promotion with style.

Regular 1st XI players: D. Symmonds, P. Harrison, H. Orme, M. Sherring, P. Mason, (Captain), G. Evans, G. Gillen, J. Evans, R. Smythe, 0. Cox, J. Graff, 'Jobber' Willis, M. Camp bell.

T .E. THE HILARIANS RUGBY CLUB Captain: R. H. McCREATH Committee: D. M. HENDERSON, D. J. Cox, A. J. M. WILLIS ¡WITH THE return of some of last year's most experienced members, the Hilarians once more displayed thier immense calibre. A fine intake of newcomers ensured that Oxford was once again treated to 'that unique brand of sparkling rugby' which some, consumed with admiration, have labelled 'sheer artistry'.

Although we were nearly caught with our trousers down in the second match of the season, we raised our standard to emerge once again unbeaten in the league.

Once again we elected to decline promotion, in favour of a continued gentlemanly approach to the game.

The highlights of the season were, as always, the two 'old Boys' matches played in Hilary Term. To my chagrin the details of these games elude me, but that they were fast and fluid examples of rugby played in the best possible spirit. Many thanks are due to messrs Howard and Simrnie and their men.

At the Annual Dinner in the old dining hall, at which Mr. Stuart Barnes was guest speaker, it was announced that Mr. John Clark had accepted the invitation to succed the present captain. I feel sure that he will fill the post with his customary zeal.

R.H.McC .

THE RUGBY LEAGUE CLUB Captain: D. R. SYMONDS 1982 SAW THE emergence in Teddy Hall of a Rugby League club. The only relevant event of the year was the inaugural University 7-a-side competition which in the brave tradition of the Hall, we won, beating Jesus 21 - 0 in the final. Hopefully next year we will be able to put out a complete 13-man side and establish Teddy Hall as the major Rugby League college in Oxford.

D.R.S.

THE TEDDY BEAR'S CRICKET CLUB THE TEDDY BEARS enjoyed an unbeaten season, both on and off the field . Our first opponents, Regents' Park, being a day college and with their Dean amongst their number were not perhaps the most likely opposition, but entered very much

48

into the spirit (not the alcoholic variety) of the occasion. Despite the unseemly quantity of gin imbibed by Messrs. Harley, Alcock, and Ramage and their consequent but not wholly surprising, speedy demise at the crease, the game was won by tactical use of the scorebook and Dougal Henderson's immaculately timed insults of bowler, wicket-keeper or any other hapless theologian at whom he felt inclined to vent his spleen - contributions of a value far in excess of those more intimately concerned with the game. In a rain-affected match the Oriel Outcasts were outclassed. It was a game remarkable for the number of dropped catches by the Outcasts, the penalties for which being inflicted with such severity that one Outcast, stationed at third man, decided that the ball was unlikely to come in his direction and so, no doubt aided by the congenial warmth of the day, took a brief nap. Geoff Alcock hit an unbeaten 56 (and also, at a rather later stage of the day, an unbeaten lamppost).

Against a rather dubious Old Hilarians side, captained by an equally dubious balding tutor, the Teddy Bears were made to work hard, but an impressive spell of bowling from Judith Beresford (Ms) and fine keeping by Mark Kenny saved the day. Mention also ought to be made of a rather varied over by Rob McCreath, playing heroically on the Eve of his finals, which caused the close-fielders to hurry into the pavilion and don protective headgear. The game against the Hertford Hernias, presided over by the regal figure of umpire Mark Ashton, was a threat to the unbeaten record. Our innings was erratic in quality and somewhat impoverished in total (a state of affairs brought about entirely by the heat of the sun). However, fine alert fielding and some rather eccentric bowling from Carlisle's cultural attache, Bernard Bewlay, wrested victory from the Hernia's grasp .

I was heartened to see that the Teddy Bear tradition of remaining in cricket garb until midnight of the day of the game was observed with commendable discipline, but felt that it was over-zealous to arrive, thus clad, in breakfast the next day.

It rather suggests that the players concerned had celebrated victory in a manner quite inappropriate to the nature of the club and can only damage its noble and untarnished reputation.

Many thanks are due to all the chaps who played, often at short notice, and in the words of an eminent contemporary philosopher 'I LOVED IT'.

E.G .M. THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: J UDITH BERESFORD Treasurer: A. J. G. TELLER. THIS YEAR has seen a great resurgence of interest in Drama, and the John Oldham Society has had a great injection of new blood from the first year. In the Michaelmas Term, the freshers rapidly organised themselves and submitted two plays to the Cuppers Drama competition. These were :- 'Pyramis and Thisbe' from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' directed by Judith Beresford and 'Table Manners' an extract from 'The Norman Conquests' by Alan Ayckbourne directed by David Dees. The second was generally better received and one of its actresses, Christine Novy, won a nomination for the best actress ' in the competition.

The Hilary Term saw the first production for a long time which the John Oldham Society has mounted without financial aid from elsewhere. This was 'Albert's Bridge' by Tom Stoppard, produced and directed by Adam Teller which was performed in one of the smaller university venues. It was on the whole successful albeit somewhat unprofitable.

50

Plans were afoot for a production to be held in college. in the Trinity¡ Term- perhaps with an eye to establishing a venue in the Hall itself which the John Oldham Society could use to mount productions and which would also be well known throughout the university. Unfortunately, due to illness, David Firth had had to postpone his production of 'Endgame' by Samuel Becket until next term.

Over the summer, the society will be helping to back a group taking a play to the Fringe of the Edinburgh Festival. Next term , if another year arrives with an interest in drama, the Hall will be in the unaccustomed situation of mounting two productions in one term. This state of affairs is undoubtedly a healthy one and is applauded by all those who wish to see a broadening of the scope of the Hall.

J.B. THE HEARNE SOCIETY President: G. H . LEVY

THE HEARNE SOCIETY has had a varied and interesting programme of talks, which have been well supported. In Michaelmas Term we heard Mr. R. S. Dawson on modern China and Mrs. M. Kochan on the Jews in the twentieth-century world.

In the Hilary Term Mr. C. S. L. Davies entertained us with an account of the Great Wadham Scandal, and Mr. H. G . Pitt told us about the early history of the Mormons. Unfortunately, we were not able to hold the Annual Dinner in Trinity Term, but we hope next year to provide our customary mixture of business and pleasure.

O.C.P. THE LUCREZIA BORGIA SOCIETY

President: MAUREEN E . WILKS

Secretary: LIZ LEE

THREE YEARS AGO a trim body of Aulariennes decided, in their infinite and egalitarian wisdom, to create a dining society. Now it publicy avows its existence.

Television has portrayed Borgia corruption and indecency. St. Edmund Hall disagreed with their interpretation and substituted one far worse. The 'ladies' were conspicuous for their figure-hugging gowns, plunging cleavages (well emphasised) and short hemlines revealing expanses of thigh (unfortunately not too well tended). The 'gentlemen' were of course immaculately attired in black tie .

Some, however, felt that trousers offended the spirit of the evening and instead wore their regular(?) black tights and suspenders. Consequently frilly garters were the envy of both camps.

E.A.L. THE CHRISTIAN UNION Representatives: D. BROWN and D. OMEROD.

TH_E CHRISTIAN UNION has had a good year in college, with Christians of all denominations meeting together on Wednesday evenings and in smaller groups during the week. The year began well, with the pre-Michaelmas term Houseparty held at Iver in Bucks, and the C.U. led by Julia Slee and Frank Strong has con51

tinued to grow in size . The highlight of the year was undoubtedly the University Christian Union's triennial Mission in Hilary Term, during which a number of Hall men and women gave their lives to Jesus Christ, and have become involved in the C.U. D.B.

THE COSMOGRAPHERS SOCIETY Treasurer: N .

Secretary: C. PENN President: G. C. ALCOCK

HARLEY

THE FORM OF meetings brings together beverage on lips from the Developed colleges, the Socialist colleges and the Third colleges. Few attempts have hitherto been made to destroy the structure of livers comparatively, most alickadoos contenting themselves with degrading the internal layout of bodies in a part of the stomach only. The society highlights theories of punch structure and explores ideas relating to the destruction of residential areas, college centres and bicycles in cities. The importance of studying both the historical background to waistline growth, and also the influence of contemporary alchohol consumption, is emphasised. Spirit is brought together from many sources for a taste of the mixture outside the civilised west and an attempt is made to resolve the problem of whether modern inebriation is tending to creat similar behaviour throughout the world, or whether social and medical constraints are so strong that modern chaps are divergent, rather than convergent, in structure and crash out.

We would like to record special thanks to Mrs. Katie Urry for bringing to the library the very fine edition of Somner's and Battely's 'Antiquities of Canterbury', 1703, which Dr. William Urry bequeathed to the Hall; this book once belonged to White Kennett, Bishop of Peterborough and formerly Vice-Principal of St Edmund Hall; it is now one of the greatly treasured volumes in the Old Library.

Another gift for the Old Library is the 4th edition of a 'Sermon Preached at St. Mary's in Oxford in 1734' by George Fothergill, who retired as Principal of the Hall in 1760, just eight years before White Kennett was entered as a student here; we are indebted to Mr. J. H. P. Hall (1933) for giving us this.

Dr. R. C. Worsley has added to his Emden Collection another 81 volumes; it is with many thanks that we record his generosity.

Mention should also be made of the following special publications given to the library: The appreciation of Professor R. B. Pugh (Emeritus Fellow), together with a biblography of his works, in Hunnisett's Wiltshire Coroners' Bills, 1752-1796, 1981; The volume of essays 'Poetry and Drama 1570-1700', published in honour of Professor H. F. Brooks,- Professor Brooks is an authority on John Oldham, the 17th century poet and Aularian, and has given us a large amount of Oldham material; and the Chinese translation of the late Professor HumeRothery's work on 'Electrons, Atoms, Metals and Alloys', given by Mrs . E Hume-Rothery.

We have been given generous sums of money for which we are very grateful: from Andrew Peacock (1972), to buy books on the Far East or International Relations; Robert Venables (One time Fellow) for the Law section; and John Mackinnon (1975) for the Medical section. And we would like to record here the 53 volumes given by Mrs. M. E. Townsend, in memory of her son, Charles, who so tragically lost his life in 1973.

We would also like to record our thanks to Mr. Vivian Ridler (Emeritus Fellow), for printing very fine book labels for insertion into the books bequeathed to the library by Dr. A. B. Emden.

And our grateful thanks to the following for their generous gifts: R. E. Alton (Vice Principal), A Briggs (Fellow), Cistercian Publications, W. R.Daetz (1981), J. Van Doren, Dr. R. Fargher (Fellow), R. H. Findlay (1968), Florida State Univ.

B. M. FORREST (Honorary Treasurer) I have examined the books and vouchers of the Association for the year ended 31st July, 1982. In my opinion the above Balance sheet and annexed Income and Expenditure Account give respectively a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Association at the 31st July, 1982 and of the excess of income over expenditure for the year ended on that date.
