PRINCIPAL'S REPORT

HERE is nothing this year to report in the way of new buildings or major alterations. The upheavals have been on the human side. For the first time for many years, we have lost two of our Senior Fellows by retirement at the end of Trinity Term 197o. Professor Agnes Headlam-Morley was our first Professorial Fellow, indeed the first woman Professor in Oxford. Before her appointment as Montague Burton Professor of International Relations in 1948, she had been Tutor in Politics since 1932 and an Official Fellow since 1934. She retained her rooms in College when she ceased to be Tutor so her association with the College remained close. She was elected to an Honorary Fellowship in Michaelmas Term 197o. Dr. Ida Busbridge's association with the College was almost as long. Her first College appointment was as Lecturer in Mathematics in 1938, but she had been Lecturer in Mathematics for the five women's Societies since 1935. She was appointed Assistant Tutor in Mathematics in 1944, Official Fellow in 1945, and Tutor in Mathematics in 1946. From 1963 to 1965 she was Vice-Principal. Her colleagues and her pupils can all bear witness to her devotion and excellence as a teacher of Mathematics and emphatic proof is shown by the School's results. Though now retired, she cannot give up her commitment to teaching the subject, and is finding an outlet in connection with the Open University. She was elected an Emeritus Fellow of the College in Michaelmas Term 197o. Dr. Busbridge's successor as Tutor in Mathematics and Probationary Fellow is Miss Glenys Luke, D.Phil. (B.A. Western Australia). Mrs. Edwards, Lecturer in Classics, was elected Probationary Fellow in Michaelmas Term 197o. Miss M. R. Haswell, B.Litt., University Lecturer in Agricultural Economics, was elected an Additional Fellow in Hilary Term 197o. Miss Julia Annas was appointed Lecturer in Philosophy, Miss Wendy Hayward Lecturer in French, and Mrs. Cohen Lecturer in Psychology in Michaelmas Term 1970. In Trinity Term 197o, Professor Kathleen Coburn, B.Litt., Professor of English in the University of Toronto, was elected to an Honorary Fellowship. The main social event of the year, apart from the Gaudy, was a dinner for Honorary Fellows. The Rt. Hon. Mrs. Barbara Castle was able to dine with us for the first time since her election to an Honorary Fellowship. Other Honorary Fellows present were Dame Margery Perham, Miss Gwyer, Miss Procter, and Professor Dorothy Russell. It gave the College great pleasure to be able to congratulate Miss Gwyer on her 9oth birthday on I January 1971. The College has not in mind any new building at the moment, not only because it does not at present intend any increases in numbers, but because the repayment of the debt to the Endowment Fund must remain the first commitment for College finances. The Building Fund has now reached a total of 493,354.301. The major new contributions have been two gifts, of £1,500 and £2,000, from the Barbinder Trust, bringing the contributions from this Trust to a total of £9,5oo. It has also been decided to allocate to the Building Fund legacies of £5,15o from Miss T. M. E. Evans and 425o from an anonymous benefactor. The continued receipt of contributions, large and small, is gradually reducing the amount which the College has to find out of revenue to pay off the cost of the two buildings. 6

The final step in the design of the area of the new buildings was the layout of the quincunx of thorns, thorn trees set in a diamond-shaped pattern of cobbles, along the St. Margaret's Road frontage. All but one of the thorns and the cobble setting was a gift from Dr. Busbridge. Dr. Busbridge also made a most generous contribution to the cost of establishing a passenger lift in Main Building. The lift comes up outside the Mordan Hall, and will be a great comfort to those coming to functions in the Hall who find stairs difficult. Through the generosity of the Rhodes Trustees, the College was enabled to elect a Rhodes Visiting Fellow. These fellowships are intended for young scholars, preferably post-doctoral, from the Commonwealth. The College elected Miss Jaynie Anderson of the University of Melbourne. The College has thus now four Junior Research Fellows, Miss Wendy James, D.Phil., holder of the last year of the Leverhulme Research Fellowship, which was a much appreciated gift to the College by the Leverhulme Trustees, Mrs. Drummond, holder of the College's own Elizabeth Wordsworth Junior Research Fellowship, and Miss Isobel Grundy, holder of the Randall-Maclver Junior Research Fellowship, allocated in rotation to the women's colleges. In Trinity Term, Mrs. Henderson of Prince Henry's Grammar School, Evesham, was in residence as Schoolmistress Student. The numbers of undergraduates reading for a first degree in residence in Michaelmas Term 197o was 296. Of these, 287 were undergraduates coming straight from school, 5 were qualified for senior status and 4 classified as mature students. Fifty-six candidates were in residence reading for higher degrees, of whom 3 z are Oxford graduates and 25 graduates of other universities. Of these 27 are candidates for a B.Litt., 3 for a B.Phil., 4 for a B.Sc., 14 for a D.Phil., i for Chemistry Part II, and 7 for B.M. Five graduates of the College and io graduates of other universities are taking diplomas. Five graduates of the College and 3 graduates of other universities are taking the Certificate of Education. In the Final Honour Schools in 197o, 6 candidates were placed in the First Class, as follows: A. S. Kennedy in Jurisprudence; J. Peeling in Mathematics; F. M. Hoare in Biochemistry; S. C. Ridsdale in Chemistry Part II; M. A. Giddy and R. Gross in Physics. Sixty-eight candidates were placed in the Second Class, 13 in the Third, i pass in Chemistry Part I (unclassified), and 4 passes. In Classical Honour Moderations, all 3 candidates were placed in the Second Class. In Mathematical Honour Moderations, B. J. Peers was placed in the First Class, there were 6 Seconds and I Third. In Physics, Mathematics, and Engineering Honour Moderations, P. C. Belcher was placed in the First Class and there were 6 Seconds. In Mathematics and Philosophy Honour Moderations, M. Krishna was placed in the First Class and there was i Second. In English Language and Literature Honour Moderations, S. P. North was placed in the First Class, there were 6 Seconds and 5 Thirds. K.

JUNIOR COMMON ROOM, 1970 â€˜ âˆŽ TUDENTS in arms!' Or so perhaps it seemed. Let me first assure the reader that Oxford still stands and St. Hugh's at the centre of it, metaphorically if not geographically. The 'participation bug' descended on Oxford in Hilary Term 197o, with the Clarendon Building sit-in, the reactions to the Hart Report, the confidential files issue, and the first ever open meeting of undergraduates of the University. The whirlwind passed but student concern remains. At College level, the movement towards greater student participation culminated in the Governing Body's decision to invite two members of the J.C.R. to attend its meetings to discuss matters raised at the Joint Committee of Junior and Senior Members, and to attend meetings of the Accommodation and Finance Committees on relevant matters. These developments are significant; students want to be involved in decision-making and to contribute more fully to college life. Two hardy perennials reared their heads again : the question of visiting hours and the meals system. The former provided a touch of drama: an 'M-Day' invasion of males into the hallowed precincts of St. Hugh's after hours was rumoured. (Or was it a hoax ?) A cause of considerable amusement and some little irritation, the scheme was never enacted although nobody was quite sure what might happen that evening! A questionnaire, however, revealed an overwhelming desire of the J.C.R. for longer visiting hours. Since then they have been extended, to midnight. The meals system was the subject of less drama but of continuous review and minor modifications, such as the reduction of formal halls to three per week. Nevertheless, formality did add to the enjoyment of the special J.C.R. Guest Night in Hilary Term. It was modelled on St. Hugh's Night, although, of course, male guests added a distinctive touch and the evening was most pleasant, thanks to the hard work of all concerned. Updating and revision of the J.C.R. Constitution aroused less emotion. One alteration was the regrouping of the entertainment functions under the Vice-President. The J.C.R. has, as a consequence, been particularly sociable this year. Members of the S.C.R. were invited to sherry with the J.C.R. and regular coffee mornings with 'scouts' provided a rewarding innovation : I think we all enjoyed the break from work! The Carol Party for the domestic staff was also most enjoyable. The help and enthusiasm of the many J.C.R. members who came and especially those who led the singing made it a great success. One particular aspect of our 'socializing' was the attempt to 'break the ice' for Freshers in their first week of Oxford life. St. Hugh's undergraduates are very popular and we had no difficulty in arranging a sherry party with Jesus and a port party with B.N.C. (both well-attended), and we were forced to turn down other offers. In other ways, further links have been established with men's colleges. We shared punting facilities with Jesus in the summer and were invited to use their J.C.R. and bar, and to have tea, coffee, or lunch there. A Ball with Queen's has been planned for next year. It would be difficult to single out just a few names from all those who have been active in university societies, political, religious, musical, and dramatic. A glance down the Vade Mecum society lists reveals the extent of our influence, which is quite considerable.

Internal College activities have continued to flourish. Under the auspices of the Music Society, Judy Pistor, Wendy Nightingale, and Margaret Browne gave an informal recital in Hilary Term. In Trinity Term, a former student of St. Hugh's, Susan Tucker, gave a piano recital and in Michaelmas Term a St. Hugh's choir conducted by Elizabeth Norman performed Britten's Ceremony of Carols and Rejoice in the Lamb in St. Margaret's Church. A pantomime was arranged by Louise Godfrey. With enlarged funds, the Art Committee set about acquiring a variety of pictures for the J.C.R. Contributions were made to a number of charities and support for JACARI and Shelter projects was widespread. War-on-Want teas are still a regular feature of College life. Congratulations are extended to all those J.C.R. members who have won university or college scholarships or prizes (mentioned elsewhere in the Chronicle).

To end on a personal note. My overriding impression of St. Hugh's has always been one of friendliness; I know that many visitors have shared this feeling and I hope it is a reputation which we both deserve and will retain in the future. KARIN V. BOOTE Games Report, Hilary 197o—Hilary 1971

During this period, the College was very well represented in many areas of University sport. In the current season, 1970—I, three of the first hockey team are St. Hugh's members (E. Hayes, H. Saunders, and J. Burchfield), all three of them having won blues. The University second hockey team was captained by A. Witherington, and no less than six other St. Hugh's people (A. Mitchell, S. Jackson, C. Hodgson, B. Taylor, C. Woodhead, and H. Everett) were in the team. We have one representative (R. Thompson) in the University third hockey team. The College hockey team, ably organized by C. Matthias, won the hockey cuppers competition this term, and have also played a number of fixtures against other colleges. Two St. Hugh's members (J. King and S. Islip) have won blues for University netball this year, and one plays for the second team (C. Hopkinson). In the netball cuppers competition, held in Michaelmas Term 197o, St. Hugh's came second. Three St. Hugh's members (S. Russell-Vick, V. Grisogono, and M. Irish) have been included in the University tennis team, and gained blues in this sport. Some College tennis was played in Trinity •Term, on a friendly basis, against other colleges, and was much enjoyed. Blues were gained for ladies' cricket by three members of College,* in a successful season for the University women's cricket side, which also included J. Weaver. C. Bygrave has been elected captain of O.U.W.C.C. for the current season. There were also three St. Hugh's representatives (P. Vearncombe, G. Robinson, and C. Bygrave, capt.) in the University lacrosse team which beat Cambridge in Hilary Term 197o. Two members of the University ladies' badminton team are St. Hugh's representatives (H. Saunders, A. Pryzwala) and both have gained blues. St. Hugh's is also represented in University squash (M. Irish), sailing (V. Baker), and tobogganing (R. Kershaw). • (C. Bygrave, S. Lyon, and E. Hayes) 18

Croquet was played, and enjoyed, by many members of College, during Trinity Term. This brief survey indicates a broad spectrum of sporting activities on both College and University levels, and of achievement in terms of the honour of playing against Cambridge and gaining a blue. K. CLARE BYGRAVE

THE MIDDLE COMMON ROOM

HE Middle Common Room of St. Hugh's College is less than ten years old. In the summer of 1963 three graduates (J. Cameron, A. Smith, and C. Gverve) drew up a constitution for a Common Room whose purpose would be to provide a Middle Common Room for graduates in St. Hugh's College. Membership is extended to all graduates on the books of the College who are reading for an advanced degree or postgraduate diploma. All graduates of the College resident in Oxford may apply for membership whether they are reading for a degree or not. Associate memberships are also available to women of other universities, working in Oxford, who wish to be affiliated to an M.C.R. M.C.R. membership has doubled in the last few years and there are more than ninety women in the M.C.R. at the present time. More than half this number are graduates of other colleges or universities : among these approximately 16 per cent are from Commonwealth countries, 18 per cent from the United States, and 22 per cent from other countries including France, Germany, Spain, Greece, Italy, and Czechoslovakia. Many are studying for a B.Litt., others for a D.Phil., a Diploma, B.A., Certificate in Education, B.M., B.Sc., or B.Phil. Taken together, the fields of anthropology, archaeology, and geography occupy the largest number of graduates at St. Hugh's. Research in English is a close second which is followed by research in the sciences, mathematics, modern languages, medicine, and social and administrative studies, in that order. The Middle Common Room is located in 12 Canterbury Road; its back garden is attached to the College gardens to the north. The M.C.R. occupies two rooms on the ground floor of this house, which has rooms for seven graduates. (The house adjoining it, no. 11, is also a graduate house and has eight rooms.) In its two rooms the M.C.R. maintains a television set, subscriptions to various newspapers and magazines, a fiction library, pigeon-holes for graduate post, a notice board, and a refreshment cupboard in which free coffee and biscuits are available. Once a week there is an M.C.R. table in Hall for the evening meal; the M.C.R. provides sherry in the Common Room on these evenings. Formal Guest Night dinners are held in Hall twice a term. By special arrangement places are reserved for members of the Brasenose Hulme Common Room at these dinners; reciprocally, a certain number of places are reserved for the St. Hugh's M.C.R. at their Guest Nights. This special liaison with Brasenose also includes reciprocal rights to use of the Common Rooms and Butteries of each college. The M.C.R. shares certain amenities with the Junior Common Room including the use of the College Buttery, the washing and ironing facilities in College, the inter-college messenger service, and the use of the tennis courts. The M.C.R. is gradually becoming a more active group in the College. 19

This term, for example, in addition to the activities mentioned above, the M.C.R. invited the Senior Common Room to take sherry in the Mordan Hall early in the Hilary term. Each week a member of the M.C.R. reads one of the lessons in the Sunday College Evensong. At this year's Annual General Meeting the M.C.R. voted to make an annual book gift to the College Library, to augment the number of books particularly useful to graduates; there will be a subject rota of eight to ten categories. Other links with College are the Library Committee, House Committee, Chapel and Joint Committees, on which an M.C.R. representative is invited to sit. In the letter which is sent out to new graduates, membership of the M.C.R. is described as an opportunity 'for members to meet each other and to meet graduates of other universities through parties and dinners'. This term, in addition to the Guest Night dinners, the St. Hugh's M.C.R. and the BraseJ nose H.C.R. gave a wine and cheese party for members and their guests. Next term the M.C.R. plans to arrange a theatre trip to Stratford and to give a Garden Party for M.C.R. members and their guests. Trinity Term will also see the annual rental of a punt from the Cherwell Boathouse for the term and for the Long Vac. In the next academic year the M.C.R. hopes to do more for new graduates in addition to sending out an informative and welcoming letter. Last Michaelmas Term a wine and cheese party was given for M.C.R. members old and new. This was very successful, but with a little more planning it may be possible to offer something more by ways of orientation to St. Hugh's and the Middle Common Room. Although the membership is over ninety, the number of members who take an active part in the M.C.R. is less than half; it would be a real achievement for the new Committee to increase this proportion. From Trinity Term 197o the Committee will consist of K. Burk (President), I. Rebelo (Vice-President), A. Gould (Secretary), and F. Miller (Treasurer). JUDITH

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION OF SENIOR MEMBERS rrHE forty-fifth Annual Meeting of the Association of Senior Members 1 was held in the Mordan Hall on Saturday, 4 July 197o, at 3 p.m., the President, Miss Sargeaunt, in the Chair. One hundred and thirty-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 5 July 1969 were signed. The President's Report. Miss Sargeaunt said she was glad to see so many members present. She felt that all were saddened by Miss Lemon's death. The President, Secretary, and other members of the Committee represented the Association at the funeral. Miss Lemon had decided to retire from the Editorship of the Chronicle when she had finished the 1969-7o issue, but had died before this was complete. Miss Sargeaunt thought special thanks were due to Mrs. Bradbury for taking over at such short notice. Contributions which had been received towards a gift to Miss Lemon on her retirement would now go towards a memorial. The Committee would welcome suggestions as to the form this should take, and hoped the Principal would help in making this decision. Miss Sargeaunt said she would return to this subject. Dame Mary Cartwright's reply to a letter sent from last year's meeting (congratulating her on her inclusion in the Queen's Birthday Honours List) was read. A similar honour had been bestowed on Dame Elizabeth Ackroyd, and the meeting expressed a wish to send her congratulations also. This year there would be a change in procedure. In place of the Principal, Dr. Adam (the Governing Body's representative) would give the College Report. Miss Sargeaunt drew attention to the Committee's At Home in the J.C.R. This had proved to be popular two years ago, and the Committee were delighted to have the opportunity of meeting so many people. Several suggestions for the memorial to Miss Lemon were put forward including a credence table and a new lectern Bible, and the Principal pointed out that the Chapel was not well supplied with altar frontals. It was agreed that the Committee should make the final decision in consultation with the Principal. Miss Sargeaunt asked Dr. Adam to give her report. The College Report. Dr. Adam said, 'It is very right and proper that the Principal should be relieved of the necessity of making two speeches in one day, and we can only apologise for the burden we have laid on our Principals for so long. At the same time I must confess to having felt some anxiety about the form that the new "College Report" should take. I was, however, a little enlightened to see it described in the Chronicle as a "report on College news", and much relieved that the Principal has generously staked no claims on the news, and may even pick up the pieces and fill in the gaps when she talks to us this evening. `Although obituary notices have appeared in the Chronicle, I feel I cannot proceed further without saying a very few words about Miss Lemon and Mrs. Barber. The Principal, the President of the Association and a good number of 23

senior members attended the funeral service for Miss Lemon at St. Andrew's Church. Mr. Meiggs of Balliol College gave a most appreciative and impressive talk about Miss Lemon and her work and influence in Balliol. It was a new experience for some of us to realize that Balliol thought that our Miss Lemon was their Miss Lemon, even to the extent of honouring her by flying the Balliol flag at half-mast on the news of her death. It doesn't make her any the less ours, but it does illustrate her remarkable gifts and extraordinary capacity for work. Ìn memory of Mrs. Barber a service was held in St. Mary's Church on z December. The service was attended by a very large number of people and is especially remembered by many of us for the great beauty of the singing by the College choir. At the time of the funeral service in Aix-en-Provence a magnolia tree was planted in her memory, by her undergraduates in the lawn beyond the library, and, small as it is, it had five blooms this year. `We should all like to congratulate the Principal on the Honorary degree of D.Litt. conferred on her in September 1969 by Exeter University. In January this year she made a lecture tour in Pakistan, sponsored by the British Council. You may also have seen in the Press that she has been appointed by the Privy Council to be a member of the Advisory Committee for the Open University. `We were all delighted that at the last Governing Body Meeting, one of our members, Professor Kathleen Coburn, of Victoria College, Toronto University, the great Coleridge expert; was elected an Honorary Fellow of the College. Earlier in the year Miss Margaret Haswell, University Lecturer in Agricultural Economics was elected to an Additional Fellowship, more recently Mrs. Edwards, Lecturer in Classics, has been elected to an Official Fellowship. Consequent upon Dr. Busbridge's retirement, about which there is a good deal more to be said, Miss Glenys Luke, of the University of Western Australia, now reading for a D.Phil. degree at Somerville, has been appointed Tutor in Mathematics and Probationary Fellow: she and Mrs. Lunn, already Tutor and Fellow, will be looking after our mathematicians in the future. Miss Annas, one of our very distinguished past undergraduates, will be taking up her post as Lecturer in Philosophy in the next academic year. Miss Lampal, Lecturer in Philosophy, will be leaving us at the end of the year; she has been appointed Lecturer in Philosophy at Wadham College for the coming year, with full membership of the S.C.R. there. Ìt was St. Hugh's turn this year to appoint an Assessor for the University, and Miss Wood has been elected to this office. `During the past term we have been very glad to welcome Mrs. Henderson to the S.C.R. as Schoolmistress Student. She came to us from Prince Henry's Grammar School, Evesham, where she teaches Russian. `Members will be interested to hear that on 24 February this year a dinner was held for Honorary Fellows and we were very glad that Mrs. Castle was able to leave her Parliamentary duties for this very enjoyable occasion. Èvents in the J.C.R. have not been so exciting as might be imagined from the B.B.C. and the Press. We have not had any `sit-ins' though it came closer than was comfortable, but swift and skilful handling by the Dean and tutors averted the danger. But we have not been behind the times, and a statutory `Joint Committee' of members of the Governing Body and the J.C.R. has been established. In addition, representatives of the J.C.R. are to attend the 24

Governing Body Meetings, with observer status and the right to speak, for the discussion of items which have been raised at the Joint Committee. This degree of co-operation promises to be most satisfactory and profitable to both Senior and Junior members. `The J.C.R. continues to do us great credit in University distinctions and we are proud to record the following Awards and Prizes gained since the publication of the last Chronicle:

Radcliffe Infirmary Prize in Obstetrics and Gynaecology: Mrs. Joanna E. Anderson

Mrs. Claude Beddington Modern Languages Prize: E. M. Bond Charles Oldham Scholarship in Classical Studies: J. S. Clarke Gladstone Memorial Travelling Scholarship: M. A. Gaston Travel Scholarship awarded by the Worshipful Company of Cutlers for 1970–I: V. A. L. Grisogono

Marjorie, Countess of Warwick Travelling Bursary: C. M. Zenner Heath Harrison Travelling Scholarship: J. Spicer Atran Fellowship in Yiddish Studies at the University of Columbia for the academic year 1970–I: V. Lockwood We offer our heartiest congratulations to them all. `Very few of the results of this term's examinations are available; so far we have achieved two Firsts. One, as you may expect, is in Mathematics Finals; Miss Janet Peeling adds a First in Finals to her First in Mathematics Honour Moderations. Out of ten entries in Mathematics Finals we have one first and nine seconds! The other First is in the new examination, Honour Moderations in English, where Miss Trickett has been the first Chairman of Examiners—I do not suggest any connection with the fact that Miss S. P. North (Jubilee Scholar of the First Year) has been placed in Class I! `To turn to the garden : after three full years 1 think you will agree that the garden is settling down very well with the old and the new becoming an integrated whole. As I mentioned earlier, you will find the magnolia planted in memory of Mrs. Barber doing very well on the west lawn. On the north boundary, on St. Margaret's Road, you will see a very fine "quincunx of thorns" as designed by the garden architect (Mr. Wood) who advised us on the whole layout. This is a delightful item of interest at this point and gives a treat to the passers-by. For the "granite sets" which so much enhance the charm of the whole arrangement we are indebted to Dr. Busbridge. This part of the design seemed beyond the College means and Miss Busbridge has kindly paid for this arrangement as a gift to the College. It is certainly one which will be much appreciated now and by future generations of College members. `I am really finishing up my report in the garden because it is here that I can say a few words of appreciation to Professor Headlam-Morley and Dr. Busbridge without, I trust, trespassing on the next item on the agenda. Dr. Busbridge has been Custos Hortulorum since 1962, when she took over from Miss Procter, and she in her turn is to be succeeded by Dr. Honor Smith. The garden will always remind us of the care and devotion which Dr. Busbridge, in collaboration with Mr. Harris, has given to it in the past eight years. In the

not labelled and ought to be, Miss Wells said that Miss Procter had documented all the portraits so there would be no difficulty about doing this. The Principal agreed that this should be done. Dr. Busbridge told the meeting that Miss Gray was in the Churchill Hospital where she was progressing well. The President asked the Secretary to send her best wishes for a speedy recovery. Dr. Busbridge also reminded members that Miss Gwyer would celebrate her ninetieth birthday on i January 1971. The President felt that the Association would like to send her birthday greetings. The President thanked the Principal and the College for their hospitality during the Gaudy weekend. This ended the business of the meeting.

GAUDY, 1970

is many years since I attended my first Gaudy, but each time I feel 1 more and more grateful that College makes it possible for it to be a 'Gaudy week-end' as well as a 'Gaudy night'. The early arrival gives an opportunity to unwind, to re-absorb the atmosphere, to wander in leisurely manner round Oxford but especially round College and the garden and see the changes `since my day'. Gaudy pattern remains the same; after lunch on Saturday, there is the Annual Meeting of the Association of Senior Members, when we hear news of College. This time, as was arranged a year ago, the Report was made by Dr. Adam. Then followed tea in the garden : we had feared the worst as the weather had promised badly but it relented as the day went on and Miss Major was again proved right when she said firmly 'we always have tea in the garden'. Evensong in Chapel followed, and then the very pleasant sociable pre-dinner gathering for sherry in the Mordan Hall. Gaudy Dinner reached a new high level and Chef, who was called up by the Principal, deserved all the applause he received. The toast to 'The Association' was proposed by Dr. Busbridge, who gave us a light-hearted picture of Oxford and St. Hugh's as she saw them, before, during, and after the Second World War. She ended with a vigorous defence of the present generation of undergraduates. The retiring President, Miss M. J. Sargeaunt, made the reply to the toast. The toast to 'The College' was proposed in an entertaining speech by Miss Geraldine Jones (now Mrs. Greineder) who was in her undergraduate days the first woman to be President of the Oxford Union. The Principal then rose to reply to the toast, and to give us her talk about College which we had been awaiting. She also read out part of a letter she had received from Miss F. M. Wyld, who came up in 1898 and has been a most loyal and enthusiastic Senior Member over the years. Miss Wyld was very disappointed not to be able to attend the Gaudy this year: an attack of glaucoma has left her with very little sight. However 'I still have a lot of work to do' she says, and 'I am teaching myself touch-typing . . She exhorted the middle and younger age-groups of women to show 'the spirit of the early pioneers' which is obviously with her still. As at the last Gaudy, the Committee of the Association arranged a party in the J.C.R. immediately after the dinner : it seemed very popular, and certainly gave a pleasant finish to the evening. Perhaps it too will become a regular feature. 27

facilities it has enjoyed for many years at Queen Elizabeth College. These were granted by Miss E. M. Sargeaunt when she was Principal of the College and continued by her successor. B. COWDEROY (President)

EDITH MARION WATSON

HE death of Mamie Watson on zo May 1970 has left a sad gap in the lives of her many friends. Commoner of the College from 1922 to 1925, she found great happiness and satisfaction in college life and after going down she kept in touch with numerous St. Hugh's friends in many parts of the world. After the war she lived in a charming house in Kensington where her friends were always welcome. She was an original and entertaining conversationalist and raconteuse and had a great gift for mimicry. A keen student and lover of the drama, she had made a special study of play production and taught for some years at the Old Vic Theatre School. She travelled widely and became an expert photographer, especially of flowers and animals, and had a splendid collection of colour transparencies which gave delight to many. Her wide and varied interests, her zest for life, and her enthusiasms made her specially beloved of the young, and the children and grandchildren of friends found with her a second home. She is remembered with gratitude and affection.

TEACHING POSTS VACANT

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 rri HE College is sometimes asked by Senior Members or their solicitors to 1 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.
