SQUASH O.P.s v. THE SCHOOL It is proposed to have a Squash match against the School during the Easter Term, probably on a Sunday afternoon. Any O.P.s who are interested are requested to get in touch with J. M. Rucklidge, St. Peter's School. OXFORD LEI FUR OXFORD,
January, 1951.
Dear Sirs, In contrast to the Trinity Term, the start of the new academic year presents a complete and almost unbroken (albeit temporary) picture of work, work, and still more work. Freshmen, not yet secure in the knowledge that first year work is just "not done". Men in their second year, conscious of the fact that already one third of the time has passed unnoticed. Frantic finalists, beset by the sudden realisation that it is almost too late. It is not surprising that newcomers cannot visualise the summer scene of lazy enjoyment. Unfortunately there is only one newcomer of Peterite origin. D. P. Norwood is now residing in state in Hertford, and apart from the minimum of work necessary for a scholar to keep up appearances, his activities seem to have been hockey, and dispensing sherry. E. A. K. Denison (B.N.C.), though not yet a full senior member, succeeds in conveying the impression that he has at least reached that happy state of graduation, and is characterised by that indefinable air which marks the successful lawyer. Independent reports lead one to believe that he did enjoy the College Rugger Tour. P. Andrew (Keble) very occasionally leaves a hideout, the exact location of which only he knows. Vague directions inform us that it is well on the way to the "Perch", which may explain his rare appearances—or could he really be working? 7
