ST EDMUND HALL MAGAZINE VOL. XII. No. 3

October 1983 EDITORIAL

THIS YEAR BRINGS a small batch of mistakes to acknowledge, cor-

rections to make and apologies to offer: To Mr A. I. Marsh who, although the Editor has known him for many years, was referred to as 'A. M. Marsh' on page 4 of last year's Magazine. He is an expert in arbitration and reconciliation and we feel sure he will accept our offer. To K. D. Belden (1931) whom we inadvertently, on page 39 of the last year's Magazine, married to his daughter-in-law. We agree with him that this is really beyond a joke- besides being forbidden in the Table of Kindred and Affinity!- The entry, of course, ought to have read 'D. C. Belden (1967) to Deborah Latham Clifford'. We hope this settles any family upset we may have caused. Our thanks once more to the Assistant Editor, Lizz Tuck who, like her predecessor, managed to force the club reports from often lazy and not always highly literary gentlemen; to the Principal's Secretary for dozens of items forwarded 'To the Magazine Editor'; to the College Office and to the Librarian for once again providing their difficult and detailed reports. FROM THE PRINCIPAL 1982/83 HAS SEEN the College succeeding academically and in sport, but under a cloud of economic gloom. Government-imposed restrictions on the numbers of home and EEC students mean that we have to envisage, by 1984/85, a reduction of income from that source of between ÂŁ30,000 and ÂŁ40,000 p.a. The 'full fee' requirement for overseas students means that we are unlikely to be able to make up the loss from that source. At first, immediate retrenchment seemed possible in two ways: we could reduce our complement of Junior Research Fellows, and we could take advantage of the University freeze on replacement posts by supplying cheaper forms of tuition while waiting to fill vacancies. Recently the University, finding itself better off than expected, has decided to


release some posts, so that some of our delaying tactics have become impossible. Roughly speaking, £30,000 represents the cost of 2Yz Arts Fellows or 5 Scientists. Fortunately we are not at the same time engaged in great building projects. Recent appeals for over £1,000,000 by other Colleges to supply similar accommodation make the purchase of Norham St Edmund look a timely investment. The graduate flats have made us attractive to married applicants, and our undergraduates, about sixty of them, are supplied with pleasant rooms and a garden bordering the Parks. Altogether, Norham St Edmund is a popular and welcome addition to the College. Requests for rooms there, when the room-ballot is held, are very numerous. Norham St Edmund has developed a life and identity of its own, without becoming a separatist movement. The large lawn there has provided practice for the Hall croquet players and has been the scene of many summer parties: the old music room has again housed concerts as well as discos: and the old Chapel, with its mini-gym and massage machine, sees many a Hall person strengthening muscles and trimming the figure. In the Long Vacation, Norham St Edmund also makes an important contribution to conference income. Not all has been gloom. Our various successes are recorded on other pages, and the Fellows continue to publish, lecture and edit. The University is being forced to think of different kinds of course to attract students; plans to reform the system of admissions contain at least as many hopeful as horrible elements; and the staff continue to cope impressively with the problems we pose them. When we look back in some years' time we shall doubtless consider it a period of fruitful development, financial stringency . enforcing academic experiment. At the moment it feels uncomfortably (or is it excitingly?) like a period of change. J.C.B.G.

A MESSAGE FROM THE VISITOR IN JULY 1980, I gave my earnest support to the Appeal to Aularians to raise some £300,000 to complete the purchase and refurbishment of Norham St Edmund. The other £550,000 had already been provided by the very generous bequest of the late Dr Emden, and by a benevolent donor who still wishes to remain anonymous. I understand that since then, Norham St Edmund has enabled the Hall to provide, each year, individual accommodation for 2


some 50 undergraduates, 22 graduates and 3 tutorial fellows more than would otherwise have been possible, and is very popular with members of the College, It is, of course, in itself ·a valuable and appreciating asset, which also provides useful income from conferences in the vacation as a bonus. The purchase of Norham St Edmund has thus proved a very wise move indeed. Colleges are already having to look much more to their alumni to help maintain for following generations the benefits they enjoyed in their time at Oxford. So it is disappointing to learn that, of the £300,000 sought from Aularians in the 1980 Appeal, after three years, only some £80,000 has been subscribed, by one in ten of the Hall's alumni. The cost of Norham St Edmund could be paid off if every Aularian covenanted to give no more than £10 a year for five years! Th<;tt is not much to acknowledge the unique benefits of Oxford and of the Hall, of which I spoke a year ago at your Feast of St Edmund. I hope many will give more, and I am glad to join with your new Principal and the President of your Association and their predecessors in renewing the Norham St Edmund Appeal.

W-vl)~cmillan) NORHAM ST EDMUND APPEAL RENEWED THE FLOW OF new contributions to the Norham St Edmund Appeal

Fund stopped in May this year. Against a Target of £300,000 they then amounted to some £80,000, contributed by some 420 Aularians out of some 4,200 with addresses in the current Directory. Unless, therefore, the Appeal is renewed and achieves a wider response, the Hall will be left with a burden of debt and interest at a time when all colleges and the University as a whole are having to cope with financial stringency from reduced income and rising costs. Colleges better endowed than ours are appealing to their members for assistance with buildings and fellowships. The May 1983 issue of 'Oxford' records several colleges currently making appeals for sums between £1 million and £2 million, and many reporting financial restrictions. It is paradoxical that the wise purchase in 1979/1980 of Norham St Edmund, providing facilities which would now cost far more than the £750,000 then laid out and constituting in itself a substan3


tial property, cannot be completed by repayment of the necessary loans, because of insufficient response on the Appeal. The Association, therefore, whilst gratefully acknowledging the response of those who have already contributed (listed on pages 4-7) is confident that when Aularians who have not yet responded are aware of the position now reached, they would wish, if means allow, to have a further opportunity to make their contribution. The Association accordingly, with the strong support of the Hall authorities, is renewing the Appeal. Aularians will see elsewhere in this Magazine that the renewed Appeal is reinforced by the support of the Visitor, the Rt Hon Harold Macmillan OM, DCL. Your association urges every Aularian who has not already contributed either to complete the Covenant/Bankers Order enclosed with this Magazine, or to send a donation to the Hall for the Norham St Edmund Appeal Fund.

P. G. Morsberger was Artist-in-Residence at Dartmouth College, U .S.A. during Trinity Term 1983. N. C. Pollock spent a sabbatical year in South Africa, investigating its political geography. Professor G. W. Series (Emeritus Fellow) has retired from his Chair at the University of Reading and is now Emeritus Professor.

COMINGS AND GOINGS welcome three newcomers to the body of Fellows. Zbynek Anthony Bohuslav Zeman was elected to a Professorial Fellowship of the Hall on 2 February 1983, on his coming to Oxford as Research Professor in European History. Born in Prague, he was educated at Prague, London and Oxford, being a Senior Scholar of St. Antony's from 1953-6 and later a Research Fellow. From 1963 to 1970 he was Lecturer in Modern History at St Andrews University, and subsequently Professor of Central and South Eastern Studies in the University of Lancaster. His knowledge and experience is not confined to the purely academic for at one time he worked on the editorial staff of The Economist, and was Director of Research for Amnesty International. James Andrew Ferguson was elected to a Junior Research Fellowship in French and joined the Hall in October 1983. Educated at Pembroke College, Oxford, he is working for his Doctorate and has been a Junior College Lecturer at Pembroke for the last two years. He will take over the teaching of French in the Ha,ll to our large and flourishing Modern Languages school. In October Dr Simon Leigh Harley joined us as an Official Tutorial Fellow in Geology. Born in Sydney, Australia, he was educated at the University of New South Wales and the University of Tasmania. He has recently been Research Fellow at the Institute of Petrology and .Crystallography in Zurich, and doing fieldwork in Antarctica. His arrival will strenghten our Geology school and our long-standing antipodean connection. We have also bidden farewell to other members of the Fellowship and of the Common Room. Norman Charles Pollock, our Fellow in Geography since 1965, took early retirement at the end of the academic year 1983. He first came to the Hall as an undergraduate in 1945 from the University of Capetown, and after returning to Africa to teach in school at Salisbury and to lecture at Fort Hare Native College, he came again to Oxford in 1953 to do research and to take part in the

teaching of geography in the Hall. He was appointed a University Lecturer in Geography in 1957 and elected Fellow of the Hall in 1965. Although he has officially retired, he will not be entirely lost to us, as he will continue to teach some of our geographers and his election to an Emeritus Fellowship will ensure that he continues to give us his company in Senior Common Room. In July Norman and Mrs Pollock were entertained to dinner in the S.C.R. and a presentation was made from all the Fellows to commemorate his long and distinguished service to the Hall. Andrew William Roscoe also leaves us. He came to Hall from University College in 1980 as a Junior Research Fellow. On his being awarded an I.B.M. Research Fellowship of the Royal Society he resigned his Research Fellowship and was elected into a Fellowship by Special Election. He now leaves us to make the short return journey across the High to University College, where he has been elected G.E.C. Fellow in Computation and Praelector in Computation. He has, at the same time, been appointed University Lecturer in Computation. Finally we are losing Alistair Pearce who has been our Junior Dean since October 1981, while holding a post in the Computing Laboratory, specialising in the application of computer techniques to the arts. Besides coping efficiently as resident Dean, with the discipline and on-the-spot policing of the Hall, he has combined discipline with popularity and been a notable figure in the life of the Hall, especially on the River and in our musical activities. We wish him well and send our congratulations to him and his fiance who are to be married in Hall Chapel this autumn.

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 ÂŁ8.80 (which includes packing and postage), made payable to St Edmund Hall.

SADAO IGUCHI: IN MEMORIAM Honorary Fellow of the Hall, who was a preeminent Japanese diplomat, died on 27th May, 1980, at his home in Tokyo. Mr lguchi was born in Wakayama Prefecture in 1899. After attending Primary and Middle School there, he entered Tokyo College of Commerce (the present Hitotsubashi University). It was during his junior year at College, in 1921, that he passed the Examination for Higher Officials and entered the diplomatic service. The following year, in 1922, he was sent to Oxford University by the Foreign Office and admitted to St Edmund Hall. His letters to his father during his Oxford days show how much he enjoyed his time at St Edmund Hall. Immediately after his studies there, in 1925, he was appointed Attache at the Japanese Embassy in London. Then he began his distinguished career as a diplomat. From 1924 until 1941, he held diplomatic posts in Peking, Shanghai, New York, Chicago, Tokyo and Washington, D.C. In 1942, he became Foreign Officer at the Public Information Bureau in Tokyo. After the war, he was appointed Chief of General Affairs of the then newly-established Central Liaison Office (1945-46). He resigned from the Diplomatic Service to become an executive of the Taiyo Fishing Company in Tokyo (1946- 51). He was recalled to government service as Vice Foreign Minister under Premier Shigeru Yoshida. He was among the members who negotiated with the U.S. Special Envoy, John Foster Dulles, concerning the Peace Treaty (1951- 52). He. was appointed the first Japanese Ambassador to Canada after the end of the World War 11 (1953- 54), Japanese Ambassador to the U.S. (1954- 56) and Japanese Ambassador to National China (1959- 63). . After retiring from the diplomatic service, he served as Chairman of the Asia Friendship Association, Vice-President of the AngloJapanese Society, the American-Japan Society and was active in many other international institutes and private firms. In November 1970, he was decorated by the Emperor with the First Order of the Secret Treasure for his many distinguished services. His entire life was devoted to bringing about international goodwill and understanding during the turbulent years- before, during and after World War 11. His lifetime love was golf, which he started during his Oxford days and continued to enjoy for the next fifty years wherever he was stationed. His enthusiasm for golf encouraged the increasing popularity of the game in Japan. His sportsmanship was also

MR SADAO IGUCHI,

brought into full play while he was an executive of the Taiyo Fishing Company. A professional baseball team which belongs to the Company and is called 'The Taiyo Whales', owes its full growth to his management. He had a taste for literature as well and he cultivated a special interest in the theatre and cinema. He was blessed by the self-sacrificing and devoted help of his wife, Masako (deceased 18th November, 1976), daughter of the one-time Foreign Minister in 1928. His eldest son, Takeo, who attended Oxford University (St John's College), became a diplomat and is currently serving as Consul General of Japan in Boston, U.S.A. Mr Iguchi's literary taste has been inherited by his second son, Norio, who was a drama student at Yale University and now writes symbolist poems. Mr Sadao Iguchi's only daughter, Tatsuko, who studied at Stanford University, holds an important post at the Hotel Ohkura in Tokyo. In May 1977, Mr Iguchi underwent major surgery for pancreatic cancer, but his strong will to live was a great asset in the recovery he made afterwards. Exactly three years after the operation, however, his illness recurred and when an acute case of pneumonia overtook him, he could not fight back. He was eighty years old when he died. He is buried in the beautiful Yokohama Foreigners' Cemetery overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Takuji Oda R. B. PUGH: IN MEMORIAM Emeritus Fellow, who died on 3 Dec. 1982, as well as being a leading authority both on Wiltshire local history and on imprisonment in England in medieval times, was for many years a radically innovative Editor of The Victoria History of the Counties of England. A graduate of Queen's, he was appointed to a personal lecturership in the History of Administration at the Hall in 1952, and in his lecture~courses drew on experience acquired at the Dominions Office during World War II. On giving up the lecturership in 1959 he was elected a Supernumerary Fellow, and on retiring became an Emeritus Fellow. A man of downright views who never failed to express them pungently, he greatly valued his connection with the college, which was proud to have a professor of such wide distinction and so decisive a personality on its roll.

THE CHAPEL THIS YEAR HAS BEEN a quietly successful one in Chapel, without

any great internal occasions to celebrate or any startling innovations. There has been a marked increase in the Sunday evening congregations, both at Evensong and the Sung Eucharists which, on alternate Sundays, are now our established pattern of worship. Seldom have we fewer than thirty in Chapel and some evenings, when over sixty have turned up, the Chapel Wardens have been pressed to fit everyone in. The Advent Carol service had twice that number and we simply had to crush in where we could. Our preachers this year have included Henry Mayr-Harting, Fellow of St Peter's College, the Revd Philip Ursell, Principal of Pusey House, Lady Nairne, wife of the Master of St. Cath's, the Ven R. H. Roberts, Chaplain of the Fleet, the Revd Rod Ewart, Chaplain of the Oxford Polytechnic. Dom Gregory Elmor, O.S.B., the Rt Revd Paul Burrough, together with the home team. In Hilary Term the Mission to the University took place, led by the Archbishop of Canterbury and, in the early stages, Cardinal Hume. The main addresses were given in the Sheldonian Theatre each evening, and there was a special Service of Light in the . University Church on Ash Wednesday. We welcomed as our Assis13


tant Missioner in Hall an old Aularian, the Ven Raymond Roberts, Chaplain of the Fleet. He came to live with us, to talk and eat and drink with the undergraduates and to discuss and argue the questions raised in the mission addresses. He quickly settled in and by the end of the week had become a well-known figure with a wide circle of friends. The Hall was sorry to see him go, and we record our best thanks to him for all the energy and enthusiasm he brought to his task. What the Mission achieved in the end, is hard to say. Certainly there were no mass conversions or a spectacular increase in the number of worshippers. The seeds sown by such events are often slow in germinating and late-flowering. Certainly the faithful were strengthened and encouraged. During the year we have held a service of blessing on the civil marriage of an Aularian, had two marriage services and Nuptial Masses for Roman Catholic Aularians, and two Aularian babies have been baptized in Chapel. At the end of Trinity Term '82 Christina Tracey retired as Chapel Warden and we thank her for a long term of faithful work for the Chapel. Her place was taken at the beginning of the year by Anthony Snook who joins Andrew Burns to care for the Chapel and the Chaplain. At the end of Trinity Term '83 we said farewell to our Organ Scholar Christine Beynon who, for three years, has unfailingly produced anthems, settings for the Eucharist, voluntaries, and a full choir not only trained in hymns and psalms and spiritual songs, but a happy choir with a very strong esprit de corps. We thank her heartily for her splendid work, and wish her well when she departs for missionary work in India. I am sure she would also like me to thank the retiring Junior Dean, Alistair Pearce , and Tim Parkinson, who have often assisted her at the conductor's stand and at the organ. THE RHODES REUNION 80th anniversary of the foundation of the Rhodes Scholarships was celebrated in Oxford, and from all over the world former Rhodes Scholars returned to join those in residence,¡ to take part in a hectic round of ceremonies and feastings organised by the Rhodes Trustees, from June 27 to June 29. For the Hall our pleasure was to welcome back our own Rhodes Scholars and their wives, give them lodging to rest and sleep in, meals in Hall when they were not eating at more splendid tables elsewhere, and finally a celebration dinner of our own.

THIS YEAR THE

14


Our party consisted of D. R. Bouwer (1957) and Mrs Bouwer; R. J. Brewer (1963); C. Debattista (1977) and Mrs Debattista; Professor Rhodes Dunlap (1935); J. G. Hughes (1980); J . M. Jaffey (1950) and Mrs Jaffy; Dr E. E. Murphy (1948) and Mrs D. Tannous; Dr H. G. Nicholls (1965) and Mrs Nicholls; M. S. Stone (1966) and Mrs Stone; W. S. Yeowart (1959) and Mrs Yeowart. Professor G. H. Jones (1947) joined the party for a short while but had to return to London, and Senator L. L. Pressler (1964) and his wife who were expected, were not able to make it. N. J. H. Penny, one of our resident Rhodes Scholars, represented the present generation. The three days of the Reunion had a packed programme. On the Monday her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh attended a garden party in the gardens of Rhodes House and Wadham (temporarily united by the demolition of part of the garden wall). On Tuesday, after a morning service at Christ Church Cathedral, there was a reception at Oriel and in the evening over 1200 sat down to dinner in a huge blue and white marquee in Trinity garden, where the Chancellor presided and spoke. A special Convocation was held in the Sheldonian on Wednesday where Honorary degrees were conferred on eminent former Rhodes Scholars. On Wednesday evening our Scholars came to their own college for dinner and, together with a large gathering of Fellows and their wives, spent a happy time. The wines were superb, the Baron of Beef and the first fresh raspberries of the season succulent in their different ways, and the company as attractive as one could wish. We hope the Rhodes Trustees will soon think of another occasion to celebrate with a Reunion. A group photograph was taken before dinner, and our Scholars and their spouses are: Back Row, left to right: N. J. H. Penny; J. G. Hughes; J. M. Jaffey; M. Stone; R. J. Brewer; W . S. Yeowart; Mrs Yeowart; C. Debattista; D. R. Bouwer; H. G. Nicholls. Front Row, left to right: Mrs Jaffey; Mrs Bouwer; Mrs Nicholls; Professor Rhodes Dunlap; The Principal; Mrs Gosling; E. E. Murphy; Mrs D. Tannous; Mrs Debattista. A BERMUDAN REUNION TO CELEBRATE THE recent appointment of an Aularian, Mr

Justice Harvey da Costa (1940) to Bermuda's visiting Court of Appeal, an Aularian reunion was held. Peter Smith (1940) held an informal supper at his Sandys Parish home in Bermuda. Present 15


were Archdeacon Thomas Dyson, sometime Vicar of St. Peter-inthe-East (1947) former M.P. and teacher Colin Benbow (1951), banker Vaughan Wright (1954) and Keith Stanton (1954) the Government Statistician. Two other Aularians in Bermuda A. Martin Smith (1942) and Martin Brewer (1966) were unable to attend. It would be interesting to hear of other such Aularian gatherings in other parts of the world, to add to the picture of the universal Hall Connection. THE ROLLING ENGLISH RHODES from PROFESSOR RHODES DUNLAP

Magazine not long ago that the Principal travels regularly by bicycle to the flall from his home in Abingdon, I was reminded of my own first arrival at the Hall in October 1935, which was also accomplished by bicycle from Abingdon. The recent Oxford re-union of Rhodes Scholars has naturally encouraged such reminiscences, and the Editor of the Magazine has asked me to relate the circumstances. Whether the bicycle on which I arrived from Abingdon still exists I cannot say; it was passed on, in good shape, to a fellow-Aularian when I went down in 1938. I should first mention that, as an American student fortunate enough to win a Rhodes Scholarship, I was already deeply awed by what I had heard of the University as a seat of learning, but my notions of the place itself, so far as I had any, were derived about equally from The Scholar Gypsy and Zuleika Dobson. England itself I conceived mainly as the setting of assorted novels and poems. In my eager expectations and relative ignorance I was no doubt much like the other Scholars-elect with whom I sailed from New York. We landed at Plymouth well before the start of Michaelmas Term, and found that arrangements had been made to convey us all by motorcoach to Londond, for a few days in that city, before proceeding to our Oxford colleges. But when we put up overnight in an hotel in Torquay, it happened that I was assigned to share a room with another incipient Scholar (he was to be at Wadham reading physics), and after we retired to our beds but continued to talk, it became apparent that we both felt some regret at not seeing more of the idyllic Devon landscape we had glimpsed in the late afternoon. Our agreement on this point was such that before we got to sleep we had decided to make our first exploraWHEN I READ IN in the

16


tion of England at our own pace, giving up our seats in the coach and going the rest of the way to Oxford by bicycle. Thus it was that next morning, after bidding farewell to the main party- a member of which kindly undertook to look after our suitcases- we remained in Torquay long enough to buy for ÂŁ10 each two gleaming Raleigh Roadsters. It was one of the best decisions I was ever involved in. We had the freedom of the lightly frequented highways, and had besides the tempting option of following minor roads to points suggested by our maps or by wayside markers. In parts of Devon and Dorset the cycling itself provided no small challenge; I well remember the speed with which we breezed down a long incline to Lyme Regis, and the painful slowness of the ascent from Lyme Regis which necessarily followed. But every hilltop presented something new, and even the more level country offered sudden discoveries such as, past a curtain of trees, the great spire of Salisbury. At Stonehenge we paid sixpence to walk among the silent megaliths without another visitor or even a recognizable Druid anywhere in sight. Occasionally we had an opportunity to converse with people along the way, and were pleasantly surprised to find their manner of speech and ours no insuperable bar to communication. But, in spite of our willingness to linger on the journey, our progress proved much too rapid, and we got as far as Abingdon two days in advance of the date when we would be expected, only a few miles further, in O~ford. So we left our bicycles at the Abingdon Railway station (for Abingdon had a station then) and took the next train to London. From that first quick visit to the great city only one event need be recalled here. This was a stage presentation called 1066 and All That, based on the recent popular book of that name which has had so many happy readers since. We were acquainted with the book but not prepared for one very funny episode in the stage version- a scene which showed Christopher Columbus brought to trial for having discovered America. As Columbus ambled on stage, obviously after spending some time in the New World- he wore two-tone saddle shoes, chewed gum, and spoke with a vocabulary and intonation extravagantly transatlantic- we tyro explorers of the Old World could see in the stereotype another type of challenge, however funny. Not that we were inclined to apply the ridiculous image to ourselves, for really we could discern few resemblances. In any case, good sense reminded us that there was nothing to be done about the matter in that theatre that evening; and no doubt the confrontation helped to correct any complacency 17


about our recent travels from Torquay almost to Oxford. After all, Oxford itself was still encountered. We joined in the applause at the final curtain, then next morning caught the train back to Abingdon, retrieved our bicycles, and exactly on the appointed date, covered the last few miles that led across Folly Bridge and to some of the most wonderful years of our lives. THE DEAN OF DEGREES DR URRY'S DEATH deprived the Hall of one of its most dignified Deans of Degrees, who enjoyed as well as graced every degree ceremony, and left a gap in the ranks of our Officers which it was hard to fill. The solution the Governing Body found could not have been a happier one. An invititation was sent to the former Principal, the Revd Dr J. N. D. Kelly, and he graciously accepted. Now we are represented at ceremonies by the senior Curator of the Sheldonian Theatre himself; our men and women are led to the Vice-Chancellor by a Dean splendid in the scarlet and black of a Doctor of Divinity; and they are led up first, by a Dean whose seniority beyond the young tribe of Deans is absolutely beyond question. Moreover, Dr Kelly, with the Principal, enjoys the lunches with graduates and parents and friends, which now form such a happy part of our degree days and, for him, are often miniReunions. We thought this was worthy of pictorial commemoration and publish a photograph of Dean Kelly taken this summer with some of his flock, outside the Sheldonian.

FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE J.C.R. of the J .C.R. is asked to put pen to paper in a vain attempt to describe the virtues and vices of the present undergraduates, in order to confirm the suspicion of all Aularians that life in the Hall remains much the same as it ever was. Looking back I see that the last letter from the J.C.R. President mentions the University Challenge team and the fairer sex as noteworthy items. So far as the girls are concerned, their presence is now felt in virtually all fields of activity. This is perhaps best exemplified by the meteoric rise of the first female social secretary, sailing serenely on like some ancient ship of the line, into the stormy seas of Ball Chairman, pausing only to ensure the election of another member of her sex to replace her, and yet another to

ONCE AGAIN THE PRESIDENT

18


assume the new role of Treasurer. 'What's that', I hear you say, 'a Treasurer?' Indeed, after years of 'money under the mattress' banking and 'numbers out of the air' accounting, the elected post of Treasurer has been re-created, thus simply transferring the ability to misappropriate funds from the luckless President and Steward. Whilst on the subject of financial matters, in reaching the semifinal of University Challenge, our three-man-one-woman team of walking encyclopedias has provided the J.C.R. with substantial appearance royalties, the method of disposal of which has lead to some furious debate hinging on whether there would be a significant discount on a bulk purchase of Barrels. The success of the team has however not met with universal approval. In certain quarters it was suggested that the team should be severly censured for 'bringing the college into repute.' Artistically and dramatically speaking the college is flourishing, with the growing number of talented and practising Thespians producing at least one play every term, much to the delight of the cultured rrien of the Buttery Operatic Society, whose rehearsals can still be heard in the Front Quad of an evening. Rumours are rife of another Arts Festival in the not too distant future. Moving on, the video age has hit the J.C.R. We have our own video machine (stereo of course). The regular Sunday night video shows provide entertainment for a large audience, with the added bonus that they provide the Trinity Term Sunday night J.C.R. Meetings with the required quorum of 50. On the subject of sport, the Hall has had its usual excessive number of cuppers dinners (rugby XV's and VII's, cross-country (women), athletics (men), cycling- our 2 man team came in 1st and 2nd- water polo (did you know there are 13 players in a team?), swimming (a new cuppers we invented in order to win) and 5 torpids bumps for the women's VIII. Apparently there is no rugger cup. Perhaps some well-to-do Aularian would like to present one for us to win? At the University level we can boast well in excess of thirty blues. Turning to public relations and charitable activities, the annual Christmas Party for underprivileged children was characterised by the children being dragooned into games which the helpers thoroughly enjoyed, and the endearing sound of the compere shouting 'If you don't. .. well sit down, Father Christmas won't come'. Some twenty Hall men took part in a charity walk, encouraged by the claims of the organiser that 'it's only ten miles, there's a 19


pub at the start, a pub at the half-way mark, and a pub at the end.' Rag Week contained and added interest with a Mrs Obnoxious (surely not the same megastar who ran this year's Summer Ball?) joining the traditional Mr Obnoxious in the stocks. Life in the Hall goes on, the ancient art of Quad-standing is still practised during Trinity Term and Ball Tickets still sell out. Cosmetic changes may take place, but the existence of the Hall undergraduate remains much the same, a unique experience equalled by none.

THE ONE THING, as always, which even this super-efficient Ball

Committee could not organize was the weather. After a pretty miserable Trinity Term, the last week saw a change to something more like summer, and the evening of the Ball could not have been more beautiful, warm and gentle, followed by a lovely dawn. This year's affair was a Masquerade Ball, and many of the revellers turned up in masks and vizors- even two cloaks were observed- to saunter round the quads and gardens in their annual flood-lit beauty, and to enjoy the amazing variety of music, noise 20


and entertainment which filled these eight hours, into which so much thought and planning had gone. The Ball Programme, a complex diagram of times and spaces is as impossible to summarize as it was impossible to enjoy all the delights offered. Bigtime music came from Morrisey Mullen, Central Line, Roman Holliday and the Cherry Boys. Wanderers on the upper Quad could relish Slick Nick and the Dancability Gang, or dance real dancing to the ever-popular 13 piece orchestra. Elsewhere Alicats and Giant Inflatables made their own peculiar noises. For foottired masqueraders, one could stand a while and watch Punch and Judy, take in the magicians, cartoonists, palm-readers, cabaret, clowns, madrigals, guitars and much much more. The hungry were offered as always a fine cold supper in the elgant and chandeiier-lit marquees, together with barbecued steaks from Gabriel's de lux barbecue, now in its second year of service. The thirsty were supplied from the Front Quad bar, and those with more curious tastes at the very popular Cocktail Bar in the J.C.R. quad. There, as Jennifer would say, we spied the Chaplain and the Principal's Secretary partaking of concoctions entitled 'Summer Passion' and 'Dirty Don'. Thanks for another splendid evening go to the Ball Committee led by its firm and imperturbable Chairman, Judith Beresford, and backed by the hard and willing assistance of all the Hall staff. Congratulations, too, on the speed with which the Ball was mounted in two days, and cleared up almost before the day-afterthe-ball was out- a great feat by men and women by that time pretty well exhausted. And to Mark Hall and his trusty men who finally tracked down, half-sunk in a backwater, a missing punt, which would have made a larger hole in the Ball Acount than it had in its hull! Well done. CONFERENCES by The Domestic Bursar DURING THE REUNION this year I was frequently asked about the Hall's Conference business and thought it might be interesting to bring Aularians up to date on this subject. Booking conferences is a combination of luck and skill. Skill in presentation, provision of attractive facilities, and in fitting conferences into the bookable space. Luck because the College has very little control over the dates and numbers applying. Bookings are made when an organistion either approaches the Hall direct on previous knowledge or hearsay or applies to the Secretary of the Domestic Bursars' Committee, currently the Bursar of St. Caths. 21


He collates requests and forwards details to all interested colleges about once every two months. At this point it is necessary to apply to the potential client urgently so that one of the other colleges doesn't get there first. This initial approach is generally made by telephone and, depending on reaction, is followed up by despatch of the brochure, charge sheet, special menus, conference wine list, etc. If the bait is then taken, the conference generally makes a provisional booking and arranges to visit for a show round. I generally conduct the show round or if I am not available, Percy or my Secretary takes them over. The organisers then discuss in detail their requirements including when they want their meals, whether lecture rooms or seminar rooms are required, when they want use of the buttery and any other details .such as requirements for car parking at the Iffley Road Cente. At this point my Secretary takes over as organiser for the conference. Most conferences book at least 9 months and some as much as 3 years ahead. They are then entered on the booking board. In order to maximise the use of rooms, the organisation has been designed to make it possible to accept up to 4 conferences at a time. It is my policy to accept any size of conference for any period down to including a one night stand and in some cases a day conference only. It will I hope be clear that this whole procedure produces a large volume of work which is in addition to the normal round of term time routine. In the course of 1981-2 which was a poor conference year we took about 60 conferences providing some 8300 conference nights at basic charge of ÂŁ16.50+ VAT for full board, totalling approximately ÂŁ137,500. In addition conferences frequently have a special dinner, buy beer in the buttery and wine from Cyril at a more commercial cost that that used in term time. Balanced against this gross income is the 12.50Jo service charge which goes to . members of permanent staff engaged in conferences and the cost of all food, beer and wines consumed. Also the extra casual labour required for conferences is charged against this gross income. A detailed calculation shows that approximately 45% of conference income is a credit to the College Account. This money is fed into the Account under the heading of 'Accommodation meals and services' which is the same heading into which the Board and Lodging charge is credited. The whole along with many other smaller items produces the final surplus or deficit on the annual working account of the Hall. It will be obvious that such a chancy business is not easy to estimate from year to year as so many factors are involved in the final conference take. 22


However the effect of conferences on the food account is of interest. The food account measures the cost of food used compared to the money received for it with no allowances for overheads, i.e. staff wages, fuel used, depreciation or breakages. In term time food cost of £1 produces an income of about £1.25, which is a long way short of covering the overheads, whereas the conference food costs of £1 produces an income of £2.50. The overheads remain virtually the same. The overall balance is achieved by combination of two sources of income and it is very obvious that the low food prices enjoyed during term are dependent on a high rate of conference business. The staff work very hard at all levels to see that our conferences are properly looked after and the success of their efforts is shown in the number of conferences which book year after year and in the large volume of complimentary letters we receive. That is not to say that ther~ are never complaints but fortunately they are in a minority. We are also well equipped to provide Wedding Receptions, drinks parties and private lunch and dinner parties to a very high standard. The W olfson Hall can accommodate 260 and we can fit in smaller parties in the Old Dining Hall, J.C.R. Party Room or Hearne Room according to the size of the party. Most of this outside business is done in the vacation but it is often possible to provide for non residential functions during term as well. Old Aularians can be of great assistance to the Hall if they · would steer more business our way. THE AULARIAN copies shows that the year has seen the publication of five numbers of The Aularian, our in-house newsand-views paper, each of them a fascinating mixture of the serious and facetious, subtle and crude, responsible and downright mischievous. It is impossible to describe the taste of this mixture- at times, it must be admitted, shockingly bad- but it can never be accused of committing what C. S. Lewis called the one unforgivable literary sin-dulness. The covers especially and many of the pieces of art-work and illustrations have been fresh, witty and inventive. One day, perhaps, ·the files of The Aularian will give a researcher a far more accurate sense of the life of an Oxford College in the late twentieth century that the more solemn and seemly pages we write here, although one suspects it will need a much MY COLLECTION OF

23


larger body of explanatory footnotes, historical, biographical and lexical. It would also greatly help those future scholars if the present producers dated each issue!

J.C.R. AND M.C.R. OFFICERS M. J. BISHOP WAS President of the Junior Common Room during Hilary, Trinity and Michaelmas Terms 1982. When his term of office finished in December 1982, P . M. Drewell was elected President until the end of Michaelmas Term 1983 . D. Pratt was elected Steward of the J. C. R. but was only able to serve for Trinity Term 1982. He was succeeded by M. J. Hall who served for Michaelmas Term 1982 and Hilary Term 1983. T. J. Smith was elected to succeed him and will serve until Hilary Term 1984. The Social Secretary, Ms J. P . Beresford was succeeded in office by Miss T . Finch. The M.C.R. Officers for 1982-3 were J . Pathak, President and W-R Daetz, Steward. At the end of Trinity Term 1983, A. G. Gillen was elected President, and Miss M. R. Ammouche Steward for the ensuing year. We would like to record that the closing days of Mr Pathak's Presidency were made joyful by India's triumphant victory in the World Cup.

AULARIAN CALENDAR THE FOLLOWING DATES

in 1983- 4 are of special interest to Aularians:

ST. EDMUND'S DAY: Wednesday 16 November 1983 . LONDON DINNER, preceded by the A.G.M. of S.E.H. Association at Simpson's in the Strand, Tuesday 10 January 1984. REUNION DINNER at the Hall, Saturday 30 June 1984. RESIDENCE FOR FULL TERM: Michaelmas Term, 9 October to 3 December 1983 . Hilary Term, 15 January to 10 March 1984. Trinity Term, 29 April to 23 June 1984. DEGREE DAYS: There are vacancies on the following dates: Saturday 5 November 1983, Saturday 21 January 1984, Saturday 3 March 1984, Saturday 21 July, 1984, Saturday 4 August 1984. Degrees may also be taken in absentia at any of these ceremonies ahd also on the following dates: Saturday 22 October 1983, Saturday 26 November 1983, Saturday 26 May 1984, Saturday 16 June 1984. ¡ Members of the Hall wishing to make arrangements for taking their degrees should write in advance to The Secretary, The College Office, St Edmund Hall, Oxford OX! 4AR.

TRITTON, C. W. G., St Paul's School, for Engineering (Central Electricity Generating Board) WILSON, M. W., King Edward VI Grammar School, Chelmsford, for Physics ORGAN SCHOLAR HoOPER, T. M., Bournemouth School THE LONDON DINNER THE ST EDMUND HALL Association's London Dinner was held again at Simpson's in the Strand, on Tuesd~y 11 January 1983, although this year with something of a difference. The South Room Restaurant which for years has been the scene of our festivities, was closed for re-decoration, and we crowded into the Ground Floor Restaurant, the 126 members present filling it to capacity. Indeed, if the 135 Aularians who had accepted had all turned up, we would have overflowed. As it was, this was the second highest attendance at a London dinner. Sir William Nield welcomed the record number of members and, for the first time, welcomed Aularian ladies to the gathering. He said farewell and thank-you to Brian Forrest as our Treasurer, but not as an Aularian who would be with us for many years, without the need to balance the books so efficiently. He welcomed the new Principal to this his first London dinner as Principal, and praised his courage in coming, so recently recovered from an attack of pneumonia. The Principal, in reply, refused to be intimidated by the great number of oldies present. Speaking of his election to the Principalship he told us that he only knew the result of the election; he couldn't think of the reasons and thought it wiser to leave it at that. He commemorated the dead- Professor R. B. Pugh- and honoured the living- Professor J. Mac Manners and Professor Peter Hirsch. He reported on our new Dean of Degrees, widely known as Dr J. N. D. Kelly, and affectionately referred to by the parents of graduands as The Man in Red. He reported on the visit of the Visitor on St Edmund's Day and on his wonderful rhetorical technique which could reduce a crowd of hardened undergraduates to tears and cheers. He reviewed the past year and its victories and difficulties, and looked forward to the future, which he admitted was a challenge, but not a cause for depression. The guests of the Association were The Principal, the Revd J. N. D. Kelly, Sir leuan Maddock, Miss Mary Boak, J. S. Pathak, President of the M.C .R. and P. M. Drewell, President of the J.C.R. The following Aularians attended the dinner: 1926 E. Urry; 1927 B. M. Forrest; 1929 Sir Denis Wright (Hon Fellow); 1930 Sir Claude Hayes; 1931 The Revd J. E. Mowll, The Revd R. J. Vaughan; 1932 D.

ST EDMUND HALL ASSOCIATION MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING-11 JANUARY 1983 THE 1983 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the St Edmund Hall Association was held at Simpson's-in-the-Strand, 100 Strand , London WC2R OEW on Tuesday 11 January 1983 at 6.25 p.m., Sir Williain Nield GCMG KCB MA presiding. 35 members were present

Apologies were received from (inter alios):- Revd Dr J. N. D. Kelly; J. B. Allan, D . J. Derx, M. G. M . Groves, J. Lee, J. D. Shortridge, R. Waye. 1. MINUTES The minutes of the last Meeting held 12 January 1982, having been published in the 1981-82 Magazine and copies being available, were taken as read, confirmed and signed .

2. MATTERS ARISING - ELECTIONS (MINUTE 4) The Hon Secretary reported that in pursuance of the promise made that the Executive Committee would table the matter at its Meeting on 26 June 1982 of late resignations from the Committee and their repercussions on the election procedure the Committee had indeed made a decision. This was to nominate at its June Meeting its candidates for election at the next January's AGM and to publish the names in the AGM Notice: by this means the full Committee would be consulted (one of the problems encountered and which had caused the matter to be raised) and as a bonus all members would know in advance of the AGM whether or not an independent nomination was likely to result in a contested election (the lack of such information having caused an independent candidate to withdraw at the 1978 AGM in a potentially embarrasing situation). This decision had been duly implemented for this AGM: ironically enough, however, those attending were now presented with a similar situation (this time affecting an Officer of the Association) to that which affected a member of the Executive Committee at the same time last year. The President would be reverting to the matter later on . 27


3. PRESIDENT'S REPORT

The Hall Principals Sir William Nield said that on the retirement of Sir leuan Maddock Mr Justin Gosling had succeeded him: both would be our guests at the ensuing Dinner. A eulogy of the latter (by the Vice-Principal Reggie Alton) had appeared in the latest Magazine. a)

b) The Hon Treasurer

Brian Forrest had decided it was time to give up the Treasurership, two days before his 75th birthday. He had been an Aularian for 56 years (matriculating in 1927) and in 1930, racing over six days then, he had coxed a Hall Boat to seven bumps. For 15 years he had been a most meticulous and successful Treasurer: he was leaving the Association's affairs in good shape and had been the prime mover in the achievement of charitable status, which had saved £1000 already! Sir William wished him on behalf of the Association all the best for future years: everyone hoped to see him many times more at these Dinners, and a message was relayed from John Allan congratulating him from one who had served as Treasurer for 40 years as his immediate predecessor. Brian Forrest, in responding, said he had thoroughly enjoyed his time as a member of the Association and as Treasurer: he thanked everyone- it was wonderful when the Accounts balanced! c) The New Buildings Appeal and the Association's Organization Sir William announced that work on both fronts was going ahead slowly but surely. He had presented a paper to the Executive Committee reporting the results of his researches into the response to the current appeal and also that of 1973 for completion of the new buildings on the main site: over these nine years Aularians had contributed some £216,000 at the prices of the time, amounting to half a million pounds at those of today. There was, however, still some way to go, even just to meet the continuing financial needs of the Hall, and we were reminded that support for the Hall was our prime objective as a charitable institution. The Association should be doing more than just raising funds, however: if members could show sufficient interest there was much local action that could be initiated for instance advice on careers and the solution of local problems: the Association could well develop as an Aularian self-help society. As he saw it, there was a requirement for two types of volunteer- the more senior person and a younger one in support for active ferreting and secretarial work: and any names would be gratefully received by the President or Hon Secretary. 'We are proceeding along these lines' he concluded, 'and hope to have something specific to report at the next AGM'.

4) HON TREASURER'S REPORT

The President opened the presentation of the audited Accounts for the financial year I August 1981 - 31 July 1982 (which had been published in the 1981-82 Magazine, copies also being available at the meeting) by saying that they showed a very satisfactory closing surplus of £790. The Hon Treasurer, Brian Forrest, continued with a review of the current position which had been strengthened by an increase in the subscription income from the Hall which more than offset the allocation of £200 to the Boat Club to buy a new shell which had been decided on between meetings to meet an urgent request by the Hall authorities. 28


Turning to the future, however, he found the outlook not quite so rosy: the position of the Directory Fund would be considered by the Executive Committee at its June Meeting and ·if the previous £400 were voted again we should have a deficit of £485 at the end of the financial year: if not, it would only be £85 . Our total assets, however, would exceed £3,500 in any case. The memory of Dr Emden remained emphatically with us : the Executive Committee had decided to apply the interest on his Fund (some £240) to sustaining the Magazine's quality again, and on what would have been his 94th birthday on 22 October 1982 the Association had provided the Principal with the wherewithal to bedeck the High Table with roses in the Bowl we gave him for his 90th. The Balance Sheet and annexed Income and Expenditure Account for the year ended 31 July 1982 were adopted unanimously and on that note the Hon Treasurer bowed out. 5. ELECTIONS The President referred to the technical problems besetting the election of a successor at this point (see 2 above): the Meeting however rode through them and accepted the Executive Committe's late nomination . The following were elected/ re-elected unanimously on the nomination of the Executive Committee, no other nominations having been received:Hon. Treasurer 1983: R. J . L. Breese elected Hon. Secretary 1983: H. A . F. Radley re-elected Members of the Executive Committee by matriculation groups:Up to 1934: J. B. Allan (retiring by rotation) re-elected. 1935-44: D.G.C.Salt " " 1945-54: D. J. Derx 1955-64: I. R. K. Rae 1965-74: J . D. Shortridge 6. HON AUDITOR J. R. Paul was re-appointed unanimously as Hon Auditor 1983. 7. DATE OF N EXT MEETING

Tuesday 10 January 1984 at Simpson's-in-the-Strand, 6.15 p .m . There being no further business, the Meeting closed at 6.47 p .m. after what was claimed (subject to challenge) to have been the shortest ever AGM @ 22 minutes, a position generally acknowledged as satisfactory.

THE REUNION THE ANNUAL REUNION of Old Members was held in perfect summer weather on Saturday 25 June 1983. Summer term with its storms and record rainfall had relented and produced sunshine and quad-sauntering warmth for the Aularians who gathered here- the second largest reunion since that in the year of Dr Kelly's retirement. Aularians obviously relish farewells and welcomings. The Principal made his first speech to this reunion gathering, feeling , as he said, very much at home now, among the aged as well as the young. Unfortunately- or fortunately- it was too early to tell whether academic results were as bad as when many of his audience were up, but the sporting year was over and he could report victories in Rugger, seven-a-side, women's rowing, mixed fortunes for the male oarsmen in their new but¡ somewhat wilful boat 'Alfred Brotherston Emden'; swimming and athletic cups were on our trophy shelf, and only the other day we had won Bicycle Cuppers which two of our men had been enterprising enough to discover. Our team in University Challenge had reached the semi-final. He thanked everyone- even including the Magazine- for the warmth of the welcome he had been given as Principal, an office facing an amazing variety of problems in one crowded first year. It was a time of change, with new economic problems, new courses, new flexibility. The toast of 'Floreat Aula' was not for him an indulgent contemplation of an old perfection, but a looking forward with optimism to a new and changing future. The President of the Association, Sir William Nield, welcomed the Principal to what he hoped was the first of many such Reunion dinners. He spoke of the Appeal work of the Association, of the new word-processors in Hall which obviously fascinated him with their ability to break down Old Members, not only by age and sex, but many other spatial and temporal categories. The company rose, amid acclamations, to join him in the toast ' the Principal'. 31


Dr Kelly was brought to his feet by popular demand, speaking, as he most inaccurately said, with reserve, caused by the serpent-like presence of a microphone which seemed about to bite . The old voice did not , when all was said and done, need any such aid . He confessed it was delightful to see before him so many people whose names he could not recall, but whose faces and habits were ingrained on his memory. There followed a short but inspired meditation on nature and art, and his closing words summed up the whole occasion perfectly: 'Well met: let us meet again.

CLUBS AND SOCIETIES THE BOAT CLUB

President: THE REV GRAHAM MIDGLEY Captain: W. M. JOHNSON Vice Captain: N. D. CADDICK Ladies Captain: C. REECE Secretary/ Treasurer: J. B. TURNER HAS BEEN a year of mixed fortunes for the Boat Club . Having won the Senior VIII Trophy/ Punch Bowl at Christ Church Regatta, we were looking forward to great success in Torpids. With a new Carbocraft eight, bought for us by Amalgamated Clubs with a generous contribution from the St. Edmund Hall Association, and named after the former Principal Alfred Brotherston Emden, and with many keen novices, both male and female, we had hopes of great things . The 1st Torpid made a bump on each of the first two days, and we were all set to bump Exeter on the third day, which proved to be a Black Friday. When we were just a length down, Daniel's (Ron the Don's) gate broke, resulting in a severely disabled VI limping up the course and plumeting five places. On the last day, a misjudged running start off the bung-line cost a further place. Putting aside this- to quote The Times- 'Disaster Day for Hall', it was a good week for the Hall, with both the Ladies VIII and the Hilarians VIII winning their blades, with four and five bumps respectively. In Summer Eights, the first VIII , again beset with the inevitable crew problems, made a bump on the last day over Keble, to finish fifth on the river, and in reach of the Head next year! To the second VIII went the dubious distinction of the highest number of bumps, six- unfortunately all on them. My thanks go to the committee listed above, the two stewards, Sandy Mitchell and Mark Drewell who after the first term had to resign to take up the more menial task of President of the J .C.R. and to the Reverend Graham Midgley for his constant support (and promises of an Electra-Vibrato-Massage Machine to improve our bumps,) and to everyone who rowed and who made it a most enjoyable year.

W.M .J. THE RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB

Captain: D. N. MANNING

Secretary: P. CUBBON

THE 1982 - 3 SEASON has once again shown the strength of the Club. College teams won the League, Cuppers and Sevens competitions, and we had six of the Blues side that played Cambridge. The 1st. League team defeated all opposition in the First Division, with some notable matches against Exeter, Oriel and Christ Church. The 2nd team, unfortunately, was relegated from the Second Divison. However the closeness of some of the results indicated that the team was very unlucky not to be stay up . The intake of some good fresher players this year means that next year' s sides will again be strong and the championship and promotion should be within our grasp. The Cuppers team, captained by Stuart Barnes, easily won the competition with an entertaining victory over Keble by 41-0 in the final. The 2nd Cuppers side was unlucky with the draw and was knocked out by University early on. A rather makeshift sevens side managed to defeat all corners in the end of term competition to retain the treble once again.

The season was also made interesting by several other events, including an eventful trip to Downing College, an enthusiastic Cuppers celebration and impromptu appearances at the Exeter revue. Congratulations must go to Richard Luddington, Stuart Barnes, Hugo MacNeill, Tony Beare, Martin Gargan and Buster Ewart for their Blues, and to Hugo and Stuart again for their selection on the British Lions tour of New Zealand and the England U23 Tour to Rumania, respectively. Many thanks to Paul Cubbon, and good luck to next year's teams. D.N.M. THE CRICKET CLUB

Played 9: Won 5, Drawn 2, Lost 2 Captain: J. D. H. B. ROTHMAN

Secretary: G. Ev ANS

THE SECRETARY WAS far-sighted enough to have arranged 27 first or second team matches. The rain came down in April, and only towards the end of May was there some relief. Cuppers was pushed to the latter part of term, and finals and Blues cricket took their toll, leaving us out of the competition after the second round. There is a great deal of fresher talent at college level in the form of Simon Hart (next year's captain), Bill Jones and Richard Kent. Leading wicket taker was the captain with 21 wickets at a cost of 8.6 runs apiece. The best batting average is a matter of some dispute, and consequently the Under XI batting cup has not been awarded this year. The fielding cup goes toT. J. E. Bayne. J .D.H.B.R. THE ATHLETIC CLUB Captain: R. S. 0LIVER

Secretary: S. DOWLING

ONCE AGAIN- for the fifth consecutive time- the Hall won Cuppers, and once again by a large margin, 62 points from Lincoln. Of the forty events we won seventeen outright, and took eleven second places. Our tremendous strength in depth was a decisive advantage, and as long as this continues, there is no reason at all why we should ever lose this event. All performances were important, but those of John McCabe, John Ayton, Buster Ewart, Paddy Mbu and Dave Eckley were particularly commendable. My thanks to all who took part, and especially to Simon Dowling who helped to organize the team. Congratulations to Dave Eckley who takes over as Captain. We look forward to another win next year. Liz Bliss and Alison Harrington take over the ladies' team from me ... what a pity! R.S.O THE SQUASH CLUB Captain: C. 0. FEAR

Secretary: J. D. H. B. ROTHMAN

AITER A POOR performance in League Division 2 in Michaelmas, we won 6 out of 7 matches in Hilary, and hope for promotion to Division I for the new season. The League team was Fear, Rothman, Harley, Lawson, and MacAleer. There

49


was also a second team for the first time this year. In Cuppers, we lost in the semifinals. This was a disappointment because with the line up of C. Jones, Ellis, Rothman, and Harley or Lawson we might even have won the competition. Next year's captain is Rothman, and the secretary is T. Christopherson. J.D.H.B.R.

THE TENNIS CLUB

Captain: JOHN STEPHEN THIS TERM'S TENNIS season an only be described as a complete disaster. Oliver Fear's belief, expressed in the last issue, that the number of second years in the team would enable the club to 'continue our successful run into next season' proved totally unfounded. In fact, we failed to win a single match . Most of the early league matches were cancelled because of the rain. We were knocked out of Cuppers by Pembroke, who, delighted at beating the number one seeds, publicised their victory in a rather smug Cherwell article the following week. We came closest to beating Jesus but our lack of experience generally meant fairly crushing defeats. The onset of better weather unfortunately coincided with the beginning of finals so we were never able to play at full strength. The first pair, Stuart Worthington and Mark Crawford, played more consistently than the second (John Stephen and Simon White) but our inability to produce a steady third pair was our greatest weakness. Divya Bhatia, James Rothman, Harry Travers, Fred Mendelsohn and Alistair Graham all played on various occasions. S.R.T.W.

THE LADIES' TENNIS CLUB

Captain: Joy HIBBINS THE ADDITION OF several talented First Years has strengthened the women's tennis team this year. Despite a severe lack of practice owing to appalling weather conditions, St Edmund Hall reached the quarter-finals of Cuppers, where we suffered a narrow defeat by St. John's. If the standard of play and enthusiasm shown this year continues, I feel sure that S.E.H. Ladies team can look forward to a successful future . Many thanks to everyone who played . J.H.

THE CROSS-COUNTRY CLUB

Captain: R. S. OLIVER

Secretary: S. DOWLING

IT APPEARS THAT the Hall is destined either to win events very easily - Rugby, Athletics, for instance- or else barely participate in them at all. Cross-country is an example of the second kind. However we did reasonably well in the league, thanks to widescale apathy in other colleges. There were three bright spots: Our entry in Cuppers of 45 runners was the largest ever, and showed the spirit of the Hall at its best. 50


The ladies won their Cuppers event quite convincingly, again with the largest team ever entered in the University. The S.E.H. Relay was a great success. My thanks to all who helped, especially to Chris Cheeseman and Simon Dowling. Congratulations to Mark Waiters who takes over as Captain. Liz Bliss is Lady Captain. R.S.O. THE SWIMMING AND WATER POLO CLUB

Captain: M. C. WALTERS AFTER THE REBUILDING of Temple Cowley Pool, Cuppers was held again for the first time in two years, in both Swimming and Water Polo. A 12-5 victory over Brasenose in the final of the Water Polo, and a great performance in the Men's Swimming, including the breaking of a University record by Mike Addison, ensured Hall supremacy in both sports once again. The Women Swimmers were unlucky to be beaten by a strong Somerville team, but with some more training should challenge hard next year. Congratultions are offered to John Clark, Richard MacAlister and Mark Waiters for their Water Polo half-blues, and commiserations to Simon Roberts, who came so close. M.C.W. THE DARTS CLUB

Captain: PHIL KNIGHT THE DARTS CLUB once again ran two teams, catering for all standards of players. Both teams played regularly once a week during Michaelmas and Hilary terms, with Cuppers carrying over into Trinity Term. Both teams had mixed fortunes, the highlight of the year being a devastating 8- 4 win at Somerville, in spite of a cocktail evening being held in the bar! Anyone interested should contact next year's Captain, Doug Walmsley. P.K. THE HOCKEY CLUB

Captain: JOHN STEPHEN

Secretary: NEIL MAIDMENT

THIS YEAR'S HOCKEY season witnessed a combination of unorthodox tactics and enthusiastic determination. Although we were knocked out of Cuppers in the first round, we somehow staggered through the league and ended the season having lost only two matches, avenging our Cuppers defeat by Christ Church and earning promotion to division one. The feature of the season was undoubtedly the captaincy. Although not excelling himself in administrative matters (seldom managing to find the full eleven players and ill-advisedly leaving the Magazine report to be written by next term's vicecaptain) John proved an able leader on the field. Together with Tom Bartlett and Neil Maidment, he gave solid support to the forwards from the midfield. The backs, Richard Gale and Stephen Whyte, were also sound and reliable and successfully supported Tim Laughton, whose peregrinations through most of the 51


field positions finally ceased when he revealed his brilliant reactions as goalkeeper. The wings were generally Neil May and Richard Kent whilst the forwards usually included Simon White and William Bristowe. The season ended on a high note with an exhilerating 4- 3 defeat over Corpus Christi, the centre-forward finally finding his form to put us in the lead in the last five minutes . Owing to an administrative error the combined Hockey club dinner was held in Trinity term but it was nonetheless an extremely enjoyable evening with the captain bestowing gifts on key players and conjuring up a pair of green hot-pants half-way through his speech and inferring that the lack of concentration in the mixed team had something to do with the said article. Our thanks must go to the present officials and we wish Stephen Whyte and Tim Laughton every success in their new posts as captain and secretary for 1983 . S.R.T.W . THE LADIES' HOCKEY CLUB Captain: L.

WILD

Secretary: L. SNELLING

THE WOMEN'S HOCKEY team rounded off a highly successful season by reaching the final of Cuppers. The final was lost to Jesus, the favourites for the tournament, but it was, nevertheless, a fitting conclusion to a season in which the majority of weekly friendlies were won. The success this season has been due to the enthusiasm of the first years, and those Finalists who were willing to give up an afternoon a week to play. We are also indebted to those players who did not play regularly, but whose willingness to turn out on the occasion when they were required, allowed us to field a full team throughout the season. We hope that everyone who played has enjoyed the season, and wish Sally Jones and Alice Hart-Davis, next season's Captain and Secretary, every success. L.W. L.S. THE CROQUET CLUB Captain: N. YOUNG

THE CLUB has had a very active season this Trinity term. After a well-attended cuppers trials, we attempted to field eight teams, but finally only four were allowed by_ the secretary. The second team, led by Alistair Pearce, reached the semi-finals after beating the first team- in a violent thunderstorm. The club also managed to arrange several friendly matches including some with Christ Church, St. Aldate' s, and the Old Bancroftians. We beat the Senior Common Room convincingly 31 - 20, even with their turncoat light blue player. Next term the club's social activities will dominate: a club dinner, disco, and drinks party are planned . N.I.K.K.Y. THE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB Captain: T. Ev ANS

Secretary: M. CAMPBELL

THE PAST SEASON has been the most successful for many years . The first XI under the dynamic leadership of scouse skipper Tim Evans, ran St John's extremely close in both the League and the Cuppers competition. 52


The team's combative style of 4- 4- 2 football, based on a tight defence and an industrious midfield, benefitted immensely during Cuppers from the return of Rick Smythe and Bernard Bewlay from Blues and Centaurs duty respectively. Rick, who gained a well-deserved Blue this season, added sophistication to midfield while Centaurs Captain Bewlay marshalled the back four in fine style. The second XI too had a fine season, culminating in a Cuppers final appearance at Iffley Road, losing only narrowly and undeservedly toaSt John's XI. Best wishes for the future go to sturdy 2nd XI Captain Ashley Piggot who leaves this year, as does 1st XI stalwart Paul Mason . Ex-captain and training field martinet Mason will be missed sorely at left back, as will ebullient, outspoken goalie Dave Symonds, should he not return for post-graduate study next year. Highlights of the year must be the cuppers final under floodlights at Oxford City, and the Football Club Dinner. Hopefully next year will see a yet more successful season, and a slightly. more restrained aftermath to the dinner. W .J. THE HILARIANS RUGBY CLUB Captain: 1. CLARK

Secretary: D. LEVY

ONCE AGAIN the usual entertaining brand of Hilarian rugby reaped its rewards in a lOOo/o League record in Michaelmas Term. The Captain's tactic of constantly branding each game as 'The vital one' seemed to pay dividends in the fire and commitment with which the team played, the performances of Harley, Levy, Varey and Ellis being outstanding examples. Hilary Term saw a series of highly enjoyable games, highlighted by those against Mike Symie's XV which was lost, and that against Roger Keeley's Old Hilarians which was narrowly won . Both matches produced rugby of the highest calibre, no doubt aided by large quantities of refreshment before, during and after. At the Annual Dinner, Daniel 'Convict' Levy was elected as next year's Captain, and I am sure that he will lead the team in the same style with which he began his term of office. Perhaps his new 'contacts' will lead to fresh fixtures? J.C. THE RUGBY LEAGUE CLUB Captain: P. J. SHARPLES

Secretary: P. KNIGHT

AITER OUR victory in the inaugural Cuppers sevens competition last year, this season's high hopes were soon dashed by our defeat at the hands of Merton, who went on to win the competition. However, we did provide the backbone of this year's Blues side, including the formidable 'Teddy Hall Front Row' of Knight, Sharples and Pratt, and half-backs Symonds and Evans. It was heartening to see the Hallmen score all the Blues' points in the Varsity Match. Despite a disappointing season, our (relative) strength in depth should stand us in good stead for the first thirteen-a-side Cuppers competition next season . P.J.S.

preserved he at least can record the details of the enjoyable concerts which the Music Society has presented the Hall. Next year's officers had better do the job themselves . In Michaelmas Term, on 29 November, the following items were played in the Old Dining Hall before a most appreciative audience: W. A. Mozart: Sonata in G Major for Piano & Violin; Christine Beynon (Piano), Gordon Levy (Violin) . Walk On By; Keith Brown (Bass), Mark Haftke (Piano). Davies: Tune Up; Tim Holman (Flute), Keith Brown (Piano). Gillespie: A Night in Tunisia; Keith Brown, Charles Bear. Beethoven: Minuet and Allegro; Margaret Hall and Tim Holman (Flutes). Saint-Saens: 'L'elephant', extract from the 'Carnival des Animaux'; Steve Chevis (Double Bass) and Jo Collyer (Piano). W. F. Bach: Flute Duet No. 2; Tim Edmonds and Chris Sherlaw-Johnson . Chopin: Prelude and Scherzo; Peter Bruyns (Piano). Stravinsky: Three Pieces for unaccompanied Clarinet; Alistair Pearce. W. A. Mozart: Flute Concerto in D Major- Adagio and Allegro; Margaret Hall with Peter Bruyns (Piano). The Hilary Term concert was planned on a more ambitious scale, with a larger and variously augmented orchestra. It also included organ music and took place in the Chapel. Shortly before the concert, Jo Collyer who had been the main organiser and who was particularly involved in the preparation of the 'Fa(fade' pieces, had a serious accident, and the Society records its thanks to Alistair Pearce for stepping in and seeing us safely through the intricacies of Walton's work. The programme, on this 7th of March '82 was: Ravel: Bolero arr. S. Chevis; S Chevis. Faunf: Sicilienne; T. J . Edmonds, S. Fountain. Bill Johnson: White Water; Bill Johnson. Handel: Two arias from 'Julius Ceasar'; G. H. Levy, S. Fountain. Bach: Two choral preludes; C. R. Beynon. Thomas Arne: Con spirito; C. R. Beynon. Rimsky Korsakov (arranged!) The Plight of the Fumble Bee; M. Hall and others. Walton: Six movements from 'Fa9ade'; The Augmented Orchestra and the Chaplain (Reciter). The concert of Trinity Term, on 16 May had the same variety but was, on the whole, in a lighter mood. The programme was: Two tunes for the Woodlark, from 'The Bird Fancyer's Delight; Tim Edmonds (sopranino recorder). Barber Shop Quartette: Once in a While, Toot toot Tootsie; Tim Edmonds, Tim Parkinson, Chris Sherlaw Johnson, Andrew Smellie . Alistair Pearce; Keening. G. F. Handel: La Paix; Chris Sherlaw Johnson (descant); La Rejouissance, from the Firework Music; Daniel Rathbone (Treble), Helen Duckworth (Tenor), Tim Edmonds (Treble/ Tenor). 54


Thomas Morley: April is in my Mistress' Face; Cathy Watson . Luca Marenzio: Da l'amata mi; Jeffrey Gillie, Cathy Bannister, Simon of Pembroke. Thomas Morley: Goe from my window; Jo Collyer (spinet). Three Songs: Au Revoir, Blue Skies, A Nightingale sang in Berkeley Square; Jessica Davies, Cathy Thomason (Piano). William Byrd: Fantazia 4; Chris Sherlaw Johnson (descant), Daniel Rathbone (Treble), Helen Duckworth (Tenor), Tim Edmonds (Bass). G. U. Faure: Dolly Suite, for piano duet; Tim Parkinson, Chris Sherlaw Johnson. THE JOHN OLDHAM SOCIETY President: D. J. FIRTH Treasurer: M. BETTON

THE JOHN OLDHAM Society was re-vitalised in Michaelmas Term 1982, after several years of complete inactivity, to stage a production of Samuel Beckett's 'Endgame' in the Party Room. The success of this and the subsequent production of two Irish plays, 'Riders to the Sea' and 'Shadow of a Gunman' in Hilary Term led to a particularly healthy bank account, which will enable us to consider the financing of larger-scale productions outside college in the future. D.J.F. (The Magazine would like to add to this very brief report that it seems an inadequate recording of two very notable productions and some fine acting. It hopes that in future years the John Oldham Society will be able to provide some more . detailed reviews of its work, which the Magazine would be glad to publish.) THE LUCREZIA BORGIA SOCIETY

President: KATHERINE FINUCANE Secretary: JESSICA DAVIES Treasurer: BEY CLARKE AS THE ANNUAL Committe Meeting of the society began, amidst squabbles about who had eaten the last chocolate teddy, no one would have guessed that, from such soft and gooey beginnings would have emerged a band of determined Hallwomen, ready, this year at last, to play hostess(?) to the most renowned Hallmen. It was finally decided to abandon the usual dress requirements of Black Tie for Lucrezia Borgia members, in order to pursue more military aspirations . Consequently Wednesday of 4th week saw the Emden Room crammed with a selection of combat-clad Lucrezias and their even more beautiful escorts whose dulce.t tones filled the February evening air. Those who could or would remember, proclaimed the evening a great success. The Chef excelled himself. Our two speakers- Ms. Maureen 'the merciless' Wilkes (founder member) and Mr John O'Connell entertained us with lively and amusing speeches. The traditional after-dinner 'boat-race' in the Buttery separated the men from the boys, after which the more active members of the society continued the revelry. Although loathe to hand such honourable positions of power to Ms. Claire Rees and Ms. Lindsay Snelling, Ms. Finucane and Ms. Davies felt the evening had justified the choice of the five new members, and left us reassured that the spirit of Lucrezia Borgia still guides her faithful followers .

THE CHRISTIAN UNION

been a mixed time for the Christian Union. Only a few of the freshers arriving in October joined the C. U., though since then several people have given their lives to Christ. At times the weekly meetings have been poorly attended, though at other over 35 people have somehow managed to fit themselves into the small room where we meet. Unquestionably the highlight of the year was a visit by Canon Michael Green to a wine and cheese party, at which a large gathering of Hall men and women heard the Gospel and enjoyed the party. Although the end of term sees the departure of many of the C. U., there is every reason to expect a bright future next year. M .B.

THE YEAR HAS

THE HEARNE SOCIETY AS FAR AS we can discover the Hearne Society has not been functioning this year. We very much hope that this is only a temporary pause in the activities of what is the only intellectually serious society left in the Hall.

Among other gifts to the library, we would like to make special mention of a very fine volume of the poems of William Austin, given by Vivian Ridler (Emeritus Fellow), who printed it, and Mrs Anne Ridler, who edited it and wrote the introduction; it is a numbered copy of a limited edition. We are very pleased to have this, and thank them both. ¡ We would also like to express somewhat belated thanks to Graham Midgley (Fellow) for having given his long run of the Annual Register, 1815- 1858; these have now been given a stout binding, and are looking very good on the Old Library shelves. Dr R. C. Worsley (1939) has again very generously given many volumes to add to the 'Emden Collection', we thank him for these. We also thank Andrew Peacock (1972) for giving a sum of money for buying books for the library on international relations; and Roger Farrand (1955) for his gift of books. The Florida State Summer School very kindly gave a sum of money for books for the library which was used to buy the Bodley Head edition of the works of Henry James. We were very pleased to be given a 19th century Aularian's work: R. H. Baynes' Lyra Anglicana, 1863, by another Aularian- A. N. Smith (1972). And we also thank Dr W. W. Grave for giving us a copy of his history of the Hall's sister college: Fitzwilliam College Cambridge, 1869-1969. We also greatly appreciated receiving gifts from the following: R. E. Alton (Fellow); Mrs A. Blackman; A. Briggs (Fellow); W. Carver (1980); R. Fargher (Fellow); S. D. Graham (1952); I. Hardy (1979); J. M. F. Jaspars (Fellow); J. N. D. Kelly (Hon Fellow); E. G.
