PRINCIPAL'S REPORT HE Governing Body has elected as my successor, on my retirement on 31 July 1973, Miss Mabel Rachel Trickett, Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at the College. Miss Trickett read English at Lady Margaret Hall, and gained a First Class. For eight years she was a Lecturer in English at Hull. She has been Tutor in English at St. Hugh's from 1954, and a Fellow since 1955. She is a distinguished author both of scholarly works and of novels. In 1972 the College elected to Honorary Fellowships two distinguished senior members of the College who both hold Professorships at Cambridge; in Trinity Term Professor Alison Fairlie, M.A., D.PHIL., Professor of French, and in Michaelmas Term Professor Elizabeth Anscombe, M.A., D.PHIL., Professor of Philosophy and Honorary Fellow of Somerville College. Miss Wendy Hayward, now Mrs. Whitworth, was appointed Tutor in French and Probationary Fellow from Michaelmas Term 1972, but has been given leave of absence to work in France for the year 1972-3. For a number of years, Miss Elizabeth Thorneycroft, Tutor in Jurisprudence at Lady Margaret Hall, has also been Lecturer and Director of Studies for St. Hugh's lawyers. Miss Thorneycroft indicated that she was reducing her teaching load, and we accepted her resignation in Trinity Term with great regret. In her place, Mrs. Smart, B.C.L., M.A. (St. Anne's), has been appointed Lecturer in Jurisprudence. The University has now for the first time appointed a woman, Mrs. Wollenberg, B.A., as a University Lecturer in Music, and the College is fortunate to be able to have a share in her appointment. At the end of the Michaelmas Term 1972, the Revd. Geoffrey Lindley resigned his post of Chaplain of St. Hugh's since he was leaving St. Margaret's Church. Mr. Lindley has been Chaplain of the College since 1966, and we are deeply grateful for the great interest he has shown in the affairs of the College and for his devoted pastoral care. We have been fortunate in securing the services for Hilary and Trinity Term 1973 of the Revd. G. E. Gorman, a Toronto graduate now a postgraduate student at Magdalen. Academic changes are fairly frequent. A change of Head Gardener, however, has not happened for forty-five years. After all these years, it was very sad to say goodbye to Mr. George Harris in July 1972. We entertained him and Mrs. Harris to a farewell lunch in Hall, and presented him with a silver rose bowl and a cheque. Presentations were also made by undergraduate and domestic staff. All present and former members of the College will remember Harris with great affection and admiration for the beautiful state in which he kept the garden. His successor is Mr. Roger Phipps, formerly assistant gardener at the Botanical Gardens. We hope he will be with us for an equal number of years. During the year all the formal steps were taken which will enable five men's colleges to admit women undergraduates in 1974. The colleges are Brasenose, Hertford, Jesus, St. Catherine's, and Wadham. The matter was fully debated in Congregation. The women's colleges supported the scheme, which had been worked out in prolonged consultative meetings, for they realized that the pressure was such that the change must come, and therefore it was essential that it should come in such a way as to minimize the damage

to the women's colleges. To this end, the number of colleges was limited to five and the annual intake (except from pool candidates) to zoo, and it was proposed that these limitations should apply for five years. Special protection was also proposed for subjects vulnerable to competition from mixed colleges, such as Classics and Music. In the Congregation debate, the scheme was attacked both by those who disapproved of the restrictions and wanted a freefor-all, and those at the other extreme who disapproved of the creation of mixed colleges in any form. The motion was, however, carried by a comfortable majority. The five colleges are now in process of changing their statutes and in 1973 they will examine in a group with the five women's colleges. Nobody denies that it will be a horribly complicated process. It remains to be seen what the effect will be on the entry to the women's colleges. The conversion of 74 Woodstock Road, to which reference was made in the last Chronicle, pursues the slow course of all building operations. By the early summer, at the most depressing estimate, the College should be receiving income from four flats, of which two will be occupied by Fellows. No. 74 has been the only building activity on which the College has been engaged recently. Some exciting gifts and legacies have come to the College during the past year. In a footnote to my last report I referred to the magnificent gift of ÂŁ3o,000 from the Barbinder Trust that enabled us to wipe out the last remaining debt on the Building Fund. The loan from the Endowment Fund has now been repaid in full, and the College therefore benefits from the increased income. The full list of gifts and benefactions is given elsewhere, but special mention must be made of two. In November, the College learnt that Miss K. E. Babbs, who was at St. Hugh's from 1924 to 1927, had left her whole estate to the College. The exact amount is not yet known, but it it likely to amount to nearly ÂŁ150,000, though duty, of course, has to be paid on this. At all events, it is by far the largest legacy that the College has ever received. Special mention must also be made of ÂŁi,zoo from Miss D. W. Sprules, who came up to St. Hugh's in 1902, and who was a member of the College Council from 1921 to 1926. Miss Caroline Harvey, B.A., former commoner of the College, was elected to the Elizabeth Wordsworth Junior Research Fellowship from Michaelmas Term 1972. She resigned at the end of the term upon accepting a post in London, and Mrs. Sourvinou-Inwood (St. Hilda's), who for the year 1971-2 held the Randall Maclver Junior Research Fellowship, was elected in her place. Mrs. Downie, of St. Margaret's School for Girls, Aberdeen, was in residence as Schoolmistress Student. The number of undergraduates reading for a first degree in residence in Michaelmas Term 1972 was 312. Of these 299 were undergraduates coming straight from school, 5 were qualified for senior status and 8 were classified as mature students. Sixty-three candidates were in residence reading for higher degrees, of whom 37 were Oxford graduates and 26 graduates of other universities. Of these 27 are candidates for a B.Litt., 4 for a B.Phil., 1 for a B.C.L., 6 for a B.M., 2 for an M.Sc., 14 for a D.Phil., 5 for Chemistry Pt. II, and 4 for Biochemistry Pt. II. Three graduates of the College and 4 graduates of other colleges are taking diplomas; 10 graduates of the College and 5 graduates of other universities are taking the Certificate of Education. 7


In the final Honour Schools in 1972, 8 candidates were placed in the First Class, as follows: J. E. Allan in History, J. Spicer in Modern Languages, P. Andrews in P.P.E., E. Y. Moore in Theology, A. K. Paterson in Chemistry Pt. II, J. Rossant in Zoology, P. C. Belcher in Physics, C. L. Smith in Biochemistry Pt. II. Seventy-two candidates were placed in the Second Class and 15 in the Third. In Honour Moderations, 4 candidates were placed in the First Class, as follows: S. M. Rees in Mathematics, E. J. Cook and D. L. Baggaley in English, and S. M. Wood in Geography. Twenty-five candidates were placed in the Second Class, II in the Third, and there was I aegrotat. K. M. K

JUNIOR COMMON ROOM 1972-3

AF

TER the widespread political activity of last year, resulting from the proposed reforms in student union financing, the majority of the J.C.R. members have once more left the problems of national politics to the energetic few. Inside College, however, several innovations have taken place. The experimental extension of visiting hours till 2.00 a.m. on Saturday nights has remained in force, while a two-way key system has also been introduced, which is a great help to all the J.C.R. The meals-system has undergone a major alteration this year. Instead of paying for all dinners, and having to opt 'in' or 'out' of lunch at the beginning of the term, the new system allows for much greater flexibility. Each person pays for seven main meals a week and may then buy additional meal-tickets if they are needed. Formal Hall now takes place only twice a week; undergraduates are not obliged to attend. As a result of increasing activity at a university level in the area of student politics, the J.C.R. Committee has been enlarged to include a Social Secretary who is responsible for organizing all entertainment within College. In the past year there have been a spate of parties, including a very successful 'Freshers" party, and the traditional Scouts' Christmas party. This year there were the added attractions of a Father Christmas (a long-suffering boy-friend) with presents for the children, and a group of Mummers. The J.C.R. bar also did much to keep spirits high, and altogether the evening provided a happy beginning to the Christmas season and end to the Michaelmas Term. The restructuring of the J.C.R. Committee has the important advantage of allowing other Committee members more time to fulfil their other responsibilities. The general move towards student representation on college and university committees seems to be most ardently supported by those who do not have to attend them! St. Hugh's J.C.R. now has representatives on most of the college committees apart from Education Committee and Governing Body. J.C.R. members have at the same time been concerned with general student issues such as the move towards co-residence and the problems of student accommodation. As usual, the activities of J.C.R. members in other fields have been manifold. The St. Hugh's—Keble Music Society continues to flourish, and several Concerts have been held in the past year in the Mordan Hall. In particular, the acting talent within St. Hugh's has again been much in evidence. A large number of people took part in different College productions in Oxford during the Summer, and for the first time a play was produced in the garden of St. Hugh's. This was the medieval French farce of Monsieur Pierre Patelin, directed by Nicholas Crook from Lincoln and stage-managed by Mary McEntegart. The play was a joint project between the newly formed St. Hugh's Drama Society and the Lincoln Players. There was only one woman's part, which was taken by Penny Green, but it is hoped that in the future the St. Hugh's Drama Society will be able to produce its own plays with a rather higher proportion of female parts. Unfortunately, the bad weather meant that any financial profits were out of the question, but the people who did brave the elements to watch it thoroughly enjoyed the play. Other St. Hugh's actresses, such as Margaret Hill and Joyce Hannam, have graced the Playhouse stage during the past year. One especially successful 19


production was the Oxford and Cambridge Shakespeare Company staging of As You Like It in which Ruth Parsons played the part of Phoebe. The play was presented at Cambridge and Oxford before going on tour to America during the Christmas vacation. Finally, the academic successes of the year were supplemented by the triumphs of the St. Hugh's 'University Challenge' team. We were represented in this television competition by Katherine Burk (M.C.R.), Catherine Reynolds, Jane Herman, and Susan Hazelden, with Janet Tucker as reserve. In the first round the team beat Girton College, Cambridge and then went on to defeat the teams of Bedford College, London, and Churchill College, Cambridge. Now the team is waiting to find out whom they will meet in the quarter finals, so perhaps next year's Chronicle will have further successes to report. JULIA CRAWSHAW

Games Report, 1972-3 Members of St. Hugh's have continued to take part in a wide variety of sports, both on serious and more light-hearted levels. We have blues and half-blues in tennis, hockey, squash, lacrosse, cricket, sailing, fencing, and netball—Vivian Grisogono is Captain of the University Women's Squash and Lawn Tennis teams, and Celia Hopkinson of the Netball Club. We have fielded—or pitched, or courted, or floated, as the term for particular sports may be—college teams for several series of `Cuppers', which seem to be enjoyed by all, despite the groans of stiffness next day among the less fit players! College hockey and tennis teams have played in friendly matches against various men's colleges, and although the weather was somewhat prohibitive last Trinity Term, the rota list for the tennis courts was always full. Croquet matches were also organized, with the appropriate and enjoyable tea on St. Hugh's lawn to follow, of course. We have even met the men on their own ground in a few chaotic games of football this season, of which the result was rather more chaos than football, I gather. One of the most popular sports among undergraduates here is squash, and so it was with considerable pleasure from those concerned that the 'Squash Court Fund' was launched. At present, the Oxford women's colleges have access to squash courts only through arrangements with the men's colleges, and the demands upon them are heavy: time is very limited. The J.C.R. has taken on itself the responsibility of providing the money for a squash court— any suggestions or contributions gratefully received! The College has a particular interest in squash this year, as Vivian Grisogono won the title of British University Women's Squash Champion. Weather is a question mark in most sports, but it is consoling to think that we can look forward to a summer which can surely be no worse than that of 1972! CELIA R. HOPKINSON

Erratum. In last year's Chronicle Margaret Irish was credited with being captain of both O.U. Tennis Team and O.U. Squash Team: she has kindly pointed out that, although she was 'much involved with both', she was in fact captain of neither.

THE MIDDLE COMMON ROOM

T

HE Middle Common Room of St. Hugh's is continuing a steady 'livening up' and broadening out of its activities, especially socially. Membership is now approximately ioo, though the portion active in M.C.R. affairs is smaller, due often to reasons of residence. Joint activities with the Brasenose Hulme Common Room are still organized, and by this means our members have the opportunity, if they desire it, of attending three Guest Night dinners at Brasenose per term, in addition to the two at St. Hugh's. At each change of power it is rumoured that the liaison has faded, but each time the rumours are proved wrong. Brasenose H.C.R. now has a fine new common room which is a great attraction for our members, especially at lunch time, since lunch facilities at Brasenose for our members are part of the liaison, and Brasenose is conveniently central. Several very successful parties have been organized in the past three terms: a 'disco' party was held in the J.C.R., and a wine and strawberries party went down very well despite poor weather; both were held in Trinity Term. We held a Fireworks party and a Christmas party in Michaelmas Term and in addition have received invitations from several other colleges including New College, Pembroke, Jesus, and Keble. A trip to see the fine production of Julius azsar in Trinity Term at Stratford was much enjoyed, and a trip to see Titus Andronicus the following term was similarly successful. One of the most interesting developments in the past year has been the establishment of a link with Queen Elizabeth House, with the help of Miss Haswell, an Additional Fellow of St. Hugh's, and the Bursar. We have held two wine and cheese parties for Q.E.H. members, which were very enjoyable; Q.E.H. reciprocated with a memorable buffet supper and dance. Furthermore social contacts with the S.C.R. have been excellent. M.C.R. members continue to dine at High Table, twice a term, and we also held a small sherry party in the M.C.R., partly so that S.C.R. members could see the posters which have been bought to improve the decor. The usual contact through committees has continued, and the medical book which was to be given to the library last year will be given this term, together with this year's book. There has been a very successful St. Hugh's team on 'University Challenge', which included last year's M.C.R. President, Kathy Burk. As a result of her participation we have been voted a lump sum by the J.C.R., which will be spent on some capital improvement to the common room. All members will no doubt be very appreciative of this. Contact with University matters has been carried on with by the President (H. S. Goldie) who attended the M.C.R. Presidents' Conferences, and who is also a member of the Libraries Committee. The main function of the latter has been to inquire into the usage of the Bodleian Common Room in the basement of the Indian Institute. This appears to be suffering from failure to attain a 'critical mass' of users. The M.C.R. committee for the past year has been unusual in consisting of three St. Hugh's graduates: H. S. Goldie (President), S. E. Jackson (Treasurer), and M. E. Fawcett (Secretary), and only one non-St. Hugh's graduate (J. Gonzalez—Vice-President). However, this in no way reflects the M.C.R.'s composition. This year we have a very cosmopolitan membership, as always, with members from countries such as Czechoslovakia, Greece, 21


Lebanon, Egypt, U.S.A., and Australia to name but some of the countries represented. We hope that we have succeeded in making them feel at home in Oxford and St. Hugh's. HELEN GOLDIE (Retiring President)

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION OF SENIOR MEMBERS

T

HE forty-seventh Annual Meeting of the Association of Senior Members was held in the Mordan Hall on Saturday, 1 July 1972, at 3 p.m., the President, Miss Cowderoy, in the chair. One hundred and twenty-five members were present. The President called on the meeting to stand in memory of those who had died during the year. The Minutes of iz June 1971 were signed.

The President's Report. Miss Cowderoy made a special mention of the death of Mrs. Jalland (B. M. Hamilton Thompson), who had not only been an undergraduate here, and Librarian, and Editor of the Chronicle before Miss Lemon, but had also been a member of our Committee from 197o until her death in February 1972. During the past year, the Committee had met three times, and a very successful Wine and Cheese Party for Senior Members had been held in London on 3o September 1971, at the University Women's Club, which seemed a delightful and most convenient place to hold such a gathering. The party had been well attended, and we were particularly pleased that the Principal and so many of the Fellows had been able to come. The President also reported that the altar frontal, given in memory of the late Miss Lemon, had been dedicated on zo February 1972, at a service in the College Chapel where the Association had been represented by a number of Committee members and other friends of Miss Lemon. This frontal was on the altar for the Gaudy week-end, to allow Senior Members to see it, although it would normally be used in Lent. The President hoped that Members liked the new dark blue cover for the Chronicle: a larger number of Senior Members had sent news this year to the Editor, and it was hoped that this would continue. She also expressed appreciation for the efficient work done by the College Secretary and her staff, in the organization of the notice-boards and other information in connection with the Gaudy week-end, and indeed for their work in connection with the A.S.M. throughout the year. The College Report. The Governing Body Representative to the A.S.M. Committee, Miss Jacobs, gave a very detailed report, from which the following passages are extracts: `It was in 1961, over 10 years ago, that Miss Procter published her article on St. Hugh's College in The American Oxonian. At that time she recorded that St. Hugh's had 16 Fellows, 195 undergraduates, and some 25 young graduates. Today the College has z6 Fellows, 10 Lecturers, nearly loo more undergraduates, and four times as many post-graduates. I therefore make no apology for the length of this report. It is pleasing to be able to demonstrate that larger numbers signify a multiplication of distinctions, carrying on a tradition of quality and scholarship. To foster the growth of the College in various ways, advice and financial support has been, and is being, steadily and generously given by our old students, and we are deeply grateful for this. `Under the head of gifts to the College, I wish to say that, apart from the major benefaction from the Barbinder Trust, certain sums already donated 25


have been designated by the Governing Body as a fund for the assistance of graduates who are finding it increasingly difficult to finance themselves for research. The competition both for State Studentships and for University College awards is increasingly keen, and senior members may like to know of the existence of our new Barbinder–Watson Fund for assisting graduates. The fund has been started with the aid of money from the Barbinder Trust and from Miss E. M. Watson's legacy; Miss E. E. Stopford's legacy has been added to this fund. Miss Lorna Limpus, who died in March last year, has left a legacy to the College of kzoo and a portrait of herself at the age of 23, painted in 1916 by a Maltese artist, Caruana Dingli. The interest on the £200 is to be spent "on books for a student of the history school or music school needing such help". It is to be known as the Limpus Bequest. `The College has elected two Honorary Fellows this year—Mrs. Snow and Dr. Alison Fairlie, whom we should like to congratulate on her election to a personal chair in French in the University of Cambridge with effect from October 1972. Senior Members will know already of Dr. Fairlie's distinguished career in French Studies, culminating in 1967 in her Cambridge Readership (more details of her career given at this point). It is delightful to have her with us this week-end, so that we are able to make this an opportunity for our personal congratulations on her latest crowning distinction.' Further items of news given by Miss Jacobs about Senior Members are reported elsewhere in the Chronicle. She gave the following news of members of the Senior Common Room: `Dr. Busbridge says that the most interesting of all the things she is doing at the moment is her activity as a member of a small sub-committee of the Council of Royal Holloway College, whose business it is to elect a new Principal. She is also Chairman of the Mathematics Examiners for the Cambridge Institute of Education, 1972. Miss Kemp's Research Fellowship in Manchester University during her leave in Trinity Term 1971 was recorded in the last College Report as a Simon Fellowship. It was, in fact, a Hallsworth Research Fellowship (the distinction is one of distinction). Mrs. Susan Wood has been elected Vice-Principal, to hold office for 3 years from 1 October 1972. Miss Sweeting is even now on her way to Johannesburg and from thence into the desert for a month, undertaking geological and spelaeological researches in the gold mines. Mrs. Russell has been on leave this term, and Miss Jacobs has been acting librarian. Mrs. Green, our Fellow in Chemistry, has also been on leave at the Centre de la Recherche Scientifique, Institut de Chimie des Substances Naturelles, Gif-sur-Yvette. Mrs. Edwards, Fellow and Lecturer in Classics, has been elected to a Tutorship in Classics as from October 1972. Julia Arenas, Probationary Fellow and Tutor in Philosophy, has a Loeb Travelling Fellowship, awarded by the Department of Philosophy and Classics at Harvard for Michaelmas Term 1972. Miss M. R. Haswell, Additional Fellow and University Lecturer in Agricultural Economics, has become one of the first members of the Overseas Universities Liaison Committee. Mr. Robert Ingram will be continuing in the post of Lecturer in French for 1972/3. Miss Wendy Hayward, Scholar of the College and part-time Lecturer in French in the College 1970/1, afterwards Kathleen Bourne Research Fellow at St. Anne's, has been elected to a Probationary Fellowship and Tutorship in French as from October 1973. Our Lecturer in Jurisprudence, Miss Thorneycroft, is unfortunately unable to continue teaching St. Hugh's lawyers. We are fortunate in securing Mrs. z6


Elizabeth Anne Smart, B.C.L., M.A., of St. Anne's College, as our Lecturer in Jurisprudence with effect from i October 1972. There was much pleased comment about the appointment to a University Lecturership in Music of Mrs. Susan Wollenberg—when she takes up this appointment she also becomes a Probationary Fellow and Tutor at L.M.H. and will be teaching our students and St. Anne's music students as well. We have had as our Schoolmistress student this term Mrs. Helen Downie of St. Margaret's School for Girls, Aberdeen—who has been studying hitherto unpublished material on the changing attitude to Nazism. `I have deliberately kept to the end of this section on Senior Common Room news the name of Daw Mya Sein, our distinguished Burmese scholar and Leverhulme Fellow. Of irrepressible good humour, even in wet weather, Daw Mya has been warmly appreciated as a member of the S.C.R. Her connection with Oxford began in 1927 when she won a State Scholarship to this University. She took her Diploma in Education in Oxford in 1928 and completed a B.Litt. at this College in 193o. Her administrative and advisory role in her own country has spanned Education, Municipal Reconstruction, Film Censorship, Electricity, UNESCO in Paris, and more. She has spoken and lectured from Rangoon to Delhi to Paris to Columbia to Virginia to Washington, mostly as visiting Professor. From 1966 to the present time she has been Professor of History at Tagore College, Rangoon. In Oxford she is now working on an autobiography which will mirror social and political history after the turn of the century, and is bringing up to date her book on the Administration of Burma (published 1938). It gives us great pleasure to know that she is prolonging her stay with us until December to complete her work. While she has been with us, Daw Mya has given a lecture at the Society of Antiquaries on the subject "Towards Independence in Burma" (I° May 1972) and a lecture in the Oxford School of Geography on Geographical Factors in Burmese History (30 May).' The announcement of College Research Fellowships and Scholarships then followed, and we were told that the University has appointed a full-time counsellor, as recommended last year by a Committee on Student Health: the main purpose is to help students suffering under psychological stress. Miss Jacobs's items about the Junior Common Room included stop press news of some results in the Final Honours Examinations. The following details from the section on general College news will be of interest to members: `The College has bought the remainder of the lease of 74 Woodstock Road on the island site and is planning conversion into flats (for which planning permission has been given). These are to be let at a commercial rent, but priority will go to Fellows. `Thinking of the island site, members may not have heard of the St. Margaret's Area Protection Society, or wonder what it is if they hear of it. The residents in this area are objecting to a scheme to develop, for warehousing, the piece of ground between the railway line and the canal, west of Hayfield Road, known as the Trap Grounds. This would result in an access road across the canal and on into St. Margaret's Road, and an increase in heavy industrial traffic. The Principal will represent the College when the case comes up. `Mr. Harris retires on 31 July 1972. As Dr. Honor Smith said in her Garden Report of 1971: "The garden, in its present form, has never existed without 27


him, and it is therefore in a very real sense, his own." Mr. and Mrs. Harris were entertained to lunch on High Table with the College on i z June, Miss Proctor and Dr. Busbridge both having been Custos, were present, as well as Dr. Honor Smith. He received from College an inscribed silver rose bowl and a cheque, and a present both from the M.C.R. and from the J.C.R. `Miss Phyllis Danbury is also retiring after 22 years of faithful service to the College, and many of you will no doubt remember her. In all these years of service, this is the first time that she will have been present at a Gaudy— but it is nice to know that she will have been with us this week-end.' Miss Cowderoy expressed the Meeting's appreciation of Miss Jacobs's very full and interesting report.

Amendment to the Constitution. The President explained that the main purpose of the amendments was to allow the Committee more room for coopting, if there was not a good representation by years, without making the Committee larger. The eight elected members would be reduced to six. This had been approved by the Governing Body and a copy of the Constitution with amendments was on the notice board. Elections. There would not be a ballot: the three Officers, all eligible for re-election, were unopposed. For the three vacancies on the Committee, three nominations had been received, Lady Johnston (1934) (B. J. Harris), Mrs. Rayment (1944) (Cynthia Werner), and Miss Barbara Levick (195o), and these were declared elected. The President thanked the retiring members, Miss Percival, Mrs. Pusey, and Mrs. Hemming, for their valued service. Other Business by Leave. Miss Cowderoy asked for views from members on the College Address List after the Committee's own discussion that afternoon. Mrs. Bradbury quoted Miss Wells's letter in which she had said that it was becoming an expensive luxury. In 197o, when it was last produced, the cost was nearly 41 per copy. This did not include secretarial time spent on it. Less than ro per cent of members had sent for a copy at z5p per copy. Miss Easterbrook's suggestion that members might send a stamped and addressed card for a latest address was quoted. A variety of opinions was expressed. While a number of people valued the list, especially when living abroad, it was realized that the College should not lose money on it. The idea of sending in a postcard was adequate as long as only an address was required, but the list was useful for discovering who and where members were in a particular district. Mrs. Bradbury said that as there were obviously differing views, the subject should be explored further. Miss Wells thought the figures could be gone into more thoroughly. The President suggested that the costs and time involved might be discussed and the Committee should consider the subject at their next meeting, as it was plain that members were reluctant to forgo the publication of the list entirely. Dr. Busbridge asked permission to use the Address List, perfect or imperfect, in connection with St. Margaret's House Appeal Fund, and this was gladly granted. She would also be pleased to receive Green Shield stamps as these were being-collected for fifty chairs for the old people's centre. Miss Stallman took the opportunity to say a few words about the University Women's Club. It was the oldest women's club in the country and made an excellent London centre for home and overseas members. It had opened in 28


the present premises in 192o. The house was one of historical importance and the U.W.C. was one of the few London clubs which was prospering. Miss Stallman would be happy to sponsor any St. Hugh's members who wished to join. Miss Cowderoy thanked the College for the hospitality afforded to the Association, and the members of the Committee for their work throughout the year. The meeting was then closed.

GAUDY, 1972 MHOSE taking part in the 1972 Gaudy gave an impression of enjoying 1 the event greatly. Friendly greetings and the evidences of efficient organization made all arrivals feel welcome. The gardens, as always, looked lovely, and as beautifully kept as the buildings, both old and new. Nearly 15o Members of the Association stayed in College for at least part of the week-end, while 220 sat down to an excellent dinner with sixteen Fellows on Saturday. Luckily the weather was fine enough to have the Garden Party out of doors, but one was glad to come in to a gently heated building, and to find in the evening—after all the sherry, Rudesheimer and Madeira—that the wherewithal for late cups of tea and even hot water bottles had been thoughtfully provided. Fringe benefits included an almost continuous series of informal parties where present residents dispensed generous hospitality to groups small enough to converse without shouting. Through all these activities one could feel the pleasures of being both an honoured guest and—at the same time— a member of the family returning home, often from afar, in time, in space, or in both. The Annual Meeting of the Association was held in the afternoon and will be reported separately. The Gaudy Dinner was, of course, the formal highlight of the occasion. Those of approximately the same years had been placed at long tables, each presided over by a present Fellow, so that past students had a happy opportunity to get in touch with the present. Not only the food and drink but the service, adorned with candles and silver, seemed to have grown more elegant with the years. Before proposing the health of the Queen, the Principal presented to the company Mr. Harris, gardener-in-chief to the College ever since the time of Miss Annie Rogers. He is about to retire, after 45 years, and the College offered thanks and good wishes to him with genuine enthusiasm. After eating and drinking and talking their fill the members were happy to become listeners. In entertaining vein the toast of the Association was ably proposed by Mrs. Audrey Hewson and answered by the President of the Association, Miss Brenda Cowderoy, one of the qualities attributed to our society being 'the noisiest body ever known' ; indeed one must marvel at the aural stamina of those at High Table who are still ready to undergo bombardment after varying periods of residence. Mrs. Margery Thornton, kindly standing in for Barbara Castle, who was unable to come, then proposed the toast of the College, and the main course of the verbal feast was, naturally, the reply of the Principal. It was with serious satisfaction that we received a balanced account of the College at the apogee of its development; with numbers stabilized at the desired level of about 30o students; with in-College 29


accommodation for about as many of these as preferred it, that is 25o; with the buildings freed from debt and with adequate endowment. It was particularly interesting to those who live away from Oxford to learn of the way in which College finances have been equalized, by richer colleges helping poorer ones to reach an acceptable mean, the women's colleges being no longer inevitably the smallest or the poorest. The Principal also explained the attitude of the College to the proposed admission of women to some of the men's colleges in Oxford. The increased total of places for women in the University, both as undergraduates and as Fellows, was clearly to be welcomed provided that any attendant disadvantages could be minimized, and that the future status of women in existing women's colleges could be safeguarded, so that fifty years hence it may still be known that St. Hugh's is a splendid place for women to enjoy a splendid education. HELEN SIMMS

THE PRINCIPAL'S RETIREMENT MHE Association of Senior Members has arranged to hold a dinner in 1 London on 6 July 1973, in honour of Dame Kathleen Kenyon, who retires at the end of that month; a presentation will be made to Dame Kathleen to mark the occasion. Full details of the arrangements will be sent separately to all Senior Members.

RETIREMENT OF MISS GRAY

M

ISS Dorothea H. F. Gray, who was an undergraduate at St. Hugh's and has been a Fellow for many years, also retires this summer: a presentation will be made to her by the Association of Senior Members on the occasion of the Annual Meeting in the Mordan Hall on 3o June 1973. Further details of the arrangements for that occasion will be sent separately to all Senior Members.

BEATRICE MARY JALLAND (nĂŠe HAMILTON THOMPSON)

B

EATRICE HAMILTON THOMPSON was born at Lincoln on 18 February 1905, the elder daughter of Alexander Hamilton Thompson who later became Professor of Medieval History at the University of Leeds. Bice (as she was always called) was educated at home and came up to St. Hugh's College in Michaelmas Term 1923; she read for the Final Honour School of Modern History and was placed in the Second class. She took her B.A. degree in 1926 and her M.A. in 1930. Bice inherited her father's interest in ecclesiastical history, but in the Post-Reformation not the Pre-Reformation period. In 1933 she obtained the degree of B.Litt. with a thesis on 'The rise and decline of Calvinism in England during the archiepiscopate of Whitgift'. Before this, in 1931, she had been awarded the Ellerton Theological Essay Prize for an essay on 'Institutional Religion'. She also worked for a short time as research assistant to Dr. Eileen Power. In 1929 Bice had returned to St. Hugh's as Assistant Librarian under a Fellow-Librarian; in 1931 this double system was given up and Bice became Librarian with full responsibility for the administration of the Library. At that time the Library was housed in what is now the Mordan Hall, but the number of books was increasing rapidly, and it became necessary to plan and to build the present Library which was opened in Michaelmas Term 1936. Bice, however, did not carry to completion the change-over, as in that summer she was appointed Lecturer in History at St. Mary's College, Durham University. In 1940 she also became acting Librarian at Durham University Library during the absence of the Librarian on War Service. Bice returned to Oxford on her marriage in January 1944 to the Reverend Trevor Gervase Jalland, D.D., Vicar of St. Thomas the Martyr. In the next year Dr. Jalland was appointed Lecturer in Theology at what was then University College, Exeter, and which is now the University of Exeter. Later Dr. Jalland became Professor and Head of the Department of Theology. For the rest of her life Bice lived in Devon, first at Exeter and later at Exmouth. She led a busy life and took an active part in religious, educational, and social work. She had been elected a member of the House of Laity of the Church Assembly, for the diocese of Oxford, in 1945 and ten years later she was 34


again elected a member, this time for the diocese of Exeter. She was Lecturer (1953) and Senior Lecturer (1959) in History at Rolle College (Training College for Women Teachers) at Exmouth. She also served as a manager of Exmouth Primary School and on the committee of management of the Devon and Exeter Approved School for Girls and she was a member of the Central Publications Committee of the Girls' Friendly Society. Bice published a number of articles and tracts which include 'The Post-Reformation Episcopate' in The Reformation in the Apostolic Ministry, ed. K. E. Kirk (1946); `The Church of England and her Ministry' (Congress Tracts No. t), Church Union (1948), and 'The Church comes into her own again', Church Observer, xi (1961). She also wrote the article on St. Hugh's College in The Victoria County History of Oxfordshire, vol. iii (1954). Bice was a devoted member of St. Hugh's College. She edited the St. Hugh's College Chronicle from 193o to 1937 and again from 1939 to 1944. She kept in touch with members of the Senior Common Room whom she had known as Librarian and with many members of the Association of Senior Members. While she lived in Devon she made frequent visits to Oxford. Her only son, Hilary, was educated at Summerfield School and Radley College and visits to him gave opportunities for visits to St. Hugh's. Her election to membership of the Committee of the Association of Senior Members in 197o gave her great pleasure, and her last visit to St. Hugh's took place in the summer of 1971,to attend a meeting of the Committee. During the last year of her life she suffered much from illness which she bore with great courage and cheerfulness. She died peacefully on z8 February 1972. E. S. P.

EVELEEN EMILY STOPFORD

E

VELEEN EMILY STOPFORD (1897-1971) will be remembered at St. Hugh's chiefly as one of the two English dons appointed to the staff in the troubled months of 1924. A Scholar of the College 1916-19, she took a firm grasp of her job (though on the surface gentle and vague) and she restored the confidence of undergraduates whose studies of Wright's Old English Grammar and of Beowulf in the original text had been greatly disturbed. When she judged that her immediate task was discharged, she went overseas to the headship of the Deaconess High School in Kingston, Jamaica (now known as St. Hugh's High School); this enlarged her experience and gave her an opportunity which she always sought, of guiding the minds of younger pupils along the paths of Christian virtue and beauty—old-fashioned parlance, at which she would have been the first to laugh, though not denying its truth. Eveleen's next appointment was as head of St. Mary's Hall, Brighton, which closed in 1941 owing to the war. She then took up her last headship at St. Elphin's, Darley Dale, Matlock, rising tenaciously above the difficulties of running a community under war conditions. She found much satisfaction there in teaching divinity and raising the academic standard, until many places were achieved at Oxford and Cambridge. During the 17 years of her headship St. Elphin's extended its buildings and increased its numbers, but her real reward was everyone's respect and affection.

35


After a short period in the Lake District, her years of retirement were spent in a beautiful 'grace and favour' house on the Chatsworth Estate, to which lovely place she warmly welcomed her many friends. She had room there for her not inconsiderable personal library. My last happy recollection of her was standing with her corgi by the waterfall, waving me goodbye and calling `Please come again!' One of her favourite hymns says : As for my friends, they are not lost. The several vessels of Thy fleet, Though parted now, by tempests tost, Shall safely in the haven meet. D. N. L'E. M.

PROFESSOR DOREEN WARRINER, O.B.E.

T

HE sudden death of Doreen Warriner on 17 December 1972 was a grievous shock to her numerous friends in many parts of the world. For all her distinction and learning she remained modest and unaffected. She thoroughly enjoyed meeting her friends and was an eager and witty conversationalist who radiated kindness and sympathy. Doreen went up to St. Hugh's in 1922 and took a First in P.P.E. in 1925. After a period of research in London and at Somerville College, she travelled widely in Eastern Europe, studying economic and social problems. This led to the publication of her first book, Economic Problems of Peasant Farming. In 1933 she was appointed to an assistant lectureship at University College, London. She gave up her post there in 1938 to act as a representative in Prague of the British Committee for Refugees and was responsible for saving hundreds of Jewish and Social Democrat lives. During the War she worked at the Ministry of Economic Warfare, first in this country and later in the Middle East supply centre in Cairo. It was during this period that she extended her interest in land reform and peasant farming to the Middle East. From 1944 to 1946 she headed the food supply department of the U.N.R.R.A. Mission to Yugoslavia.

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR POSTGRADUATE WORK rr HE B.F. U.W. and the I.F.U.W. offer each year for competition amongst I. members certain Scholarships and Fellowships that enable the holders to undertake research work abroad, mostly for an academic year, or occasionally for a shorter period to complete a piece of work; there is also available each year a Scholarship at Crosby Hall, the B.F.U.W.'s Club House in London. Particulars may be obtained from : The Secretary, British Federation of University Women, Crosby Hall, Cheyne Walk, London, S.W. 3.

TEACHING POSTS VACANT

M

ANY schools write to the College to ask if any suggestions can be made of graduates who might be interested in a vacant post. As regards recent graduates, tutors have the requisite information. But there may be others who wish to change their school, or who want to take up teaching again after an interval, or who would like to get a post in a particular neighbourhood. If there are any Senior Members who would like to be notified of vacant posts, it is suggested that they should inform the College, which could then compile a list that could be referred to when notifications of vacancies are received. The College is also from time to time notified of impending appointments of headmistresses. It would again be helpful if there were a list of Senior Members who were interested in obtaining a post as headmistress. K. M. KENYON

FORM OF BEQUEST rr HE College is sometimes asked by Senior Members or their solicitors to I suggest the wording to be used when making a bequest to the College : for guidance we suggest the following: I give and bequeath (specify the property) to the Principal and Fellows of St. Hugh's College, Oxford, to be dealt with or disposed of for the purposes of the College as the said Principal and Fellows may think fit. The receipt of the Treasurer or proper Officer of the said College shall be a sufficient discharge to my Executors.
