TRINITY ^/ewsletter COLLEGE
A PUBLICATION OF TRINITY COLLEGE WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE
AROUND THE WORLD IN SEVENTY DAYS
By the Warden, Dr. Evan L. Burge.
The idea of a Trinity Dinner in London had been in the air for some time and had the enthusiastic support of Tony Buzzard ('60), the energetic Secretary of the Union of the Heur-de-Lys. Mark Johnson ('58), who was chosen to organize it, had been in the news for some months as the man about to establish Australia's newest bank. The College Council decided the Warden should attend, a date of 7th November 1980 at Boodles was set, and Boyd Munro ('61) generously made a comfortable company house in Fulham available as a London base.
It seemed a long and expensive way to go just for a Dinner, even if that Dinner was destined to be a great success. A period abroad studying Collegiate accomodation seemed a good idea, with special reference to financial support in hard, inflationary times. And so I decided to visit the other Trinity Colleges around the world on my way to Dinner, to make contact with as many of our own Trinity members as I could, and to do one or two useful things on the side — such as taking the advice of Norman Canyon ('57) to visit
the Alumni Office at the Harvard School of Business Administration.
There are Trinity Colleges in Melbourne, Toronto, Hartford (Connecticut), Dublin, Oxford and Cambridge. One day, I hope, we'll display the six coats-of-arms in a window over the high table in Hall along the lines of a splendid heraldic window I saw in Trinity College, Toronto. In every Trinity College I found myself welcomed as an honoured guest, overwhelmed with hospitality, and put in touch with lively and stimulating people. I came away from each of them enlightened in some way, feeling both admiration and affection. We all have much in common, as members of a world-wide family.
As well as to the five major Trinity Colleges, my travels took me, after two restful days in Hawaii, to Los Angeles, Vancouver, Toronto, Baltimore, New York, Hartford, Boston, Dublin, London, Oxford, Cambridge, Lincoln, York, Durham, St. Andrews, Paris, Rome, Jerusalem, Manila, and back to Melbourne.
Twenty major centres is a lot to cover in seventy days, and yet I found it far more stimulating than wearying. Here, in brief, is what I did in each place.
LOS ANGELES. Peter Barbour ('47) ending his time as the Australian ConsulGeneral in Los Angeles, generously gave a day to showing me the city, including a memorable lunch at Adriano's, a delightful Italian restaurant in the suburbs, and an eye-opening visit to a huge student residence at ULCA. I left with ideas of how, in time, we could elevate the beds in the small but tall rooms of Clarke to give more free floor space.
VANCOUVER This was a Sunday. I saw my first woman priest celebrate the Holy Communion in the Cathedral. (It seemed just as natural and inevitable as having women students in Trinity, including four women theologs to date Then I made a bus tour of this beautiful city's glorious parks, finishing with a visit to several student residences at the University of British Columbia. My only known Trinity member here, David Hornsby ('65) of the Mineral Engineering Department, could not be found in the local phone-book.
TORONTO. Trinity College, . Toronto is a most impressive place with a soaring Gilbert Scott Chapel where I attended Wednesday choral evensong, very like our own in Melbourne. Among other things, I learned how computers can be used to teach Greek, how useful library
space can be created in basements (? under Behan), and above all how to develop a first-rate Alumni and Friends Association and Development Office. Philip (`Geordie) Wilson ('50) was unfortunately away in Boston on business so we could not relive his famous leap from a window in Behan. Nor could I find Dr. James Oldham ('62) by telephone. I did, however, have a most enjoyable lunch with Penelope Sanderson, Robert Sanderson's ('45) daughter who is pursuing a post-graduate work in psychology. Among other worthwhile things, I noticed a `Rhodes Room' magnificently furnished by a graduate in honour of past and future Trinity College Rhodes Scholars.

BALTIMORE. My visit to Baltimore was mainly to see old friends, but I also managed a thought-provoking visit to Goucher College which led to my reflecting and reading a good deal on the importance of the humanities in modem education.
NEW YORK. I was fortunate to be invited to stay with Elizabeth Reid, a friend from Canberra days, a notable Australian who seems valued more abroad than at home —much to our loss. New York is a place which I find irresistibly exciting — and part of the excitement this time was catching up with Bill Cowan ('63) now a top management consultant, Tony Kerr ('60) who conducted me on a fascinating tour of a laboratory involved in the search for organic molecules in outer space, and Michael Coultas ('50), Australian Trade Commissioner in New York, who introduced me to the grandeur of the Harvard Club. I also spent an afternoon at the General Theological Seminary in New York, where I found both Bishop Max Thomas •(now on our College Council) and John Gaden ('57) the Director of our Theological School, fondly remembered. One of the purposes of my visit was to prepare the way for Dr. Gaden's study leave in a year's time.
HARTFORD. It was one of our Fellows, Sir Joseph Burke, who rightly told me I must be sure to visit Trinity College, Hartford. I was fortunate enough to be there for the New England autumn foliage. It is a place for which I conceived an immediate affection. The atmosphere is very like our own, helped, no doubt, by a long Gothic building not unlike Bishops'. Here I was treated not only to the warmest hospitality but also to entertaining and intellectual discussion. I came away fortified in my resolve to maintain my commitment to the ideals of a true University education — the honest ongoing search for truth; the importance of critical discussion; and the recognition of humane and civilized values as worthy of a struggle to proclaim acid protect.
BOSTON. I came to Boston for two reasons: to renew contact with Dr. George Hunter at the Episcopal Divinity School and learn more about practical "field education" in theological training, and also to investigate fund-raising at the Harvard Business School across the river. Both aims were fully and enjoyably achieved. Should Trinity launch into a fullfledged program of quinquennial reunions on the Harvard model? Unfortunately, I could not track down a Trinity man, Bob Johanssen ('70) now doing an M.B.A. at Harvard. Our College records need to include telephone numbers, and not only for Melbourne! DUBLIN. With two of the original five Trustees of our College site being graduates of Trinity College Dublin, as well as the first acting Principal (Dr. G. W. Torrance), the first

Warden (Dr. A. Leeper), and the first full-time Bursar (John Wilson), I was particularly looking forward to my stay in Dublin. I was not disappointed, even if it rained most of the time. The Provost, Professor F. S. Lyons, showed me through the elegant Provost's Lodge on the eve of his departure for Australia — where he spent a night in Bishops' and enjoyed a lunch in our Senior Common Room. Geoffrey Leeper ('21), son of the first Warden, was among the guests. Meanwhile, I was taking the opportunity to discuss policies in Dublin with the Dean of Students, the Student Housing Office, and the Development Officer. A special pleasure was the opportunity to spend time with Dr. Davis McCaughey, the recently retired Master of

places in Britain with the help of a Britrail pass.
ST. ANDREWS. Perhaps it was a waste that I came as a non-golfer to visit friends in this home of golf on the Scottish east coast. For me, it was an excellent opportunity to visit a distinguished ancient University, several University Colleges and the University Development Office. I was also invited to inspect a modern venture in economical College catering. This is a large central "cook-freeze" plant which provides food of high quality at the lowest possible cost for almost all the Colleges in St. Andrews. I have no doubt that this has important implications for Trinity and the other Melbourne Colleges, especially for week-end meals.
YORK. My education took a new turn when I travelled south on a Scottish football train returning from Aberdeen. Even after the wildest sporting dinner, Trinity has (fortunately!) nothing on this. In York, I visited the former President of Trinity College, Oxford, Professor A.G. Ogston and his wife, Elizabeth, who is a devoted godmother to one of my children. `Sandy' Ogston visited Trinity (Melbourne) two years ago, and readily took the necessary steps to ensure that my coming visit to Oxford bore maximum fruit.
DURHAM. As in New York, I was concerned here with theological education and preparing for Dr. John Gaden's study leave next year. It was interesting to stay in St. Chad's College, still all-male, and rather like what I imagine Trinity was fifteen years ago. Peter Johnson ('59) was Chaplain here until recently when he moved to Canterbury He is remembered affectionately by the students — so much so that he figured in no fewer than three items in the St. Chad's College Revue, an innocent night of undergraduate humour.

Ormond, who was spending a term as visiting Professor in Biblical Studies. Here, as in other Trinity Colleges, I enjoyed choral evensong. I made a pilgrimage to the famous library to see the Book of Kells. And I attended Commons, as formal dinner in Hall is called, where the long Latin grace is followed by a glass of Guinness.
LONDON. Boyd Munro ('61) provided me not only with convenient lodgings, but with a notable Japanese dinner. As a final touch, he drove me a few nights later in a Rolls Royce with his partner to Boodles for the Trinity Dinner. The elegance of my mode of arrival was equalled by the dinner following, of which an account is printed elsewhere. Thanks to Boyd, I could leave my ever-increasing luggage in London and set off for other
OXFORD. The rivalry between Trinity College, Oxford, and my own College, Balliol, next door is ancient and notorious. It was interesting (and moving) to look out of my window in Trinity across to the Balliol Chapel (designed by Butterfield, like St. Paul's Cathederal, Melbourne) where Barbara and I were married twentytwo years ago. As usual, I sought interviews with the President of the College and various College Officers, and collected piles of College literature. My most abiding memory is of the splendour of dining on high table, the sumptuous dessert course which followed in another room, and the conversation later over coffee. Here I found myself next to a distinguished Fellow of Trinity (Oxford), the historian and philosopher of science, Alistair Crombie ('35). He claims to have masterminded the blocking of the Sydney Road in a fog long ago. Perhaps Randall Deasey ('35) would dispute the claim.
In Oxford, besides Trinity and Balliol, I visited two other Colleges, much to my pleasure

established Hebrew as the spoken language of the Israelis. Unfortunately I did not realize at the time that David Goss ('52) is currently Australian Ambassador in Tel Aviv. As well as exploring Jerusalem I joined excursions to Galilee and Bethlehem. I came as a tourist, I stayed as a pilgrim. For a Christian and a lecturer in Biblical Studies there can be few things as inspiring as a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. The political tensions of the country and the tawdry commercialism of some of the shrines are as nothing compared to the ancient beauty of the land in which, above all other, man and God have met.

and profit. In Magdalen a considerable Trinity community is led by John Feltham ('50). The Secretary of the Middle Common Room is Charles Sampford ('71) and the post-graduate students include Peter Robinson ('75) and Elsdon Storey ('73). John Glover ('73) was not there since he was recovering from a car accident in which he was involved during an American trip. He has subsequently returned to Melbourne is now one of our nonresident law tutors, and will return to Oxford in due course.
For one night, I was the guest of John Shepherd ('60) and his wife, Joy. John has moved from Cambridge to complete a doctorate in music and theology while Chaplain in Christ Church.
CAMBRIDGE. Trinity College, Cambridge, the College of our Founder, Bishop Charles Perry as well as of our own recent President, Sir Frank Woods is the most ancient and splendid of us all. It was a great privilege for me to preach in the Chapel there on Remembrance Sunday. I have the warmest and most affectionate memories of the Master and his wife (Sir Alan and Lady Hodgkin) the two College Chaplains, and the Library Tutor, who wrote a fine Latin citation for our centenary in 1972. Next year, John Adamson ('77) will
probably continue his doctoral studies here, after beginning in London.
Nearby in Pembroke, I found Rupert Myer ('76). With him and John Reeve, son of Laurie Reeve ('47) I attended a beautifully sung evensong at King's.
LINCOLN. My friend Dr. John Nurser, formerïy Warden of St. Mark's Library in Canberra, is now Chancellor of Lincoln and Titular Head of the Theological College. On the staff is Robert Gribben, until recently Chaplain in Ormond. As well as renewing friendships, I was able to learn a good deal about theological education here.
PARIS. Two days in Paris is not enough!! I managed a visit to the Centre Georges Pompidou but not to the Louvre, to Notre Dame but not to Chartres. I tramped up hundreds of stairs vainly searching for Simon Foote ('77) and Penelope Hueston, former Trinity non-resident tuto and daughter of John Hueston ('47). I did, however, find our non-resident tutor in French and History Kirsten McFadden and with her explored several of the Colleges and Student Residences of the Cite Universitaire. My generous host in Paris, Dr. Daniel Clement, is a friend of our Dean (Dr. Bryan Deschamp). He took me on a delightful tour of the Petit
Trianon and Marie Antoinette's rustic village at Versailles.
ROME. There is a Trinity College listed in the Rome telephone directory. It is located in part of a convent on the Palatine Hill and is the Italian campus of Trinity College Hartford. The hospitality of its Director (Michael Campo) and his wife is no less warm and generous than I had experienced a month earlier in Connecticut. It was a short but memorable stay, which included an almost mandatory visit to St. Peter's, some charming walks in historic parts of the city, and two happy meals in Roman trattorie.
JERUSALEM. My host in Jerusalem was Brother Gilbert Sinden S.S.M. now lecturer at St. George's College there, with whom I was deeply involved some years ago in the writing of An Australian Prayer Book. Gilbert is an indefatigable guide with seemingly endless friends in the many diverse Christian groups of Jerusalem, as well as in the Jewish community. At his table I found myself sitting with the First Secretary from the Australian Embassy, as well as the Time-Life correspondent in Israel, and the lively eighty-year-old daughter of Eleazer Ben Yehuda, the man who single-handed re-
MANILA. I have a friend in the Asian Development Bank in Manila and thought a short break here would be a good idea before flying home. Accordingly, I had two relaxing days in a tropical paradise on the island of Mindoro. But I also managed visits to St. Andrew's Theological College (which stands next to Trinity College, Manila, a Liberal Arts College specializing in Nursing and General Studies and named from Trinity College Hartford), and to the remarkable Ecumenical Studies Centre at the Jesuit Ateneo in Quezon City. The Australian Ambassador Dick Woolcott ('46) was away looking after Australian Aid Programmes in the provinces while I was there, but I enjoyed a splendid meal of roast lamb and_ plum pudding at the home of Richard Gardner ('47) who was with Dick Woolcott in the 1947 Trinity cricket team, coached by Manning Clark ('34). Richard showed me some splendid photos of Trinity in 1906 which belonged to his late father, Dr. Mark Gardner ('04). He has now had these photos copied and donated the superb copies to the College.
And so I returned to Melbourne in time for our own Service of Nine Lessons and Carols under the musical direction of Professor Peter Dennison. My time abroad has given me new inspiration, fresh ideas, and a deeper sense of who we are as members of Trinity College. I am deeply grateful to the College Council for enabling me to go, to my wife and family who cheerfully coped with my absence, to Bryan Deschamp who was a first-rate Acting Warden during this time, and to the innumerable friends and wellwishers of the College who supported this study tour with warmth and generosity. The benefits to the College promise to be considerable.
Perhaps I may sum up with a heart-felt remark I sent to the Master of Trinity College Cambridge after I had reluctantly left there. It is a wonderful thing to drink at the springs of our origin, and to find them brimming with champagne.

TRINITY'S FINANCES —
Overview and Prospect
"We will .spend the 4,000 pounds, and any more that we can get; but when we have exhausted the funds in hand, there the walls will stop, unless the means are provided for carrying them to completion. I take this opportunity of adding to my congratulations a word — should I say, of fear? I must confess I have some degree of fear, lest after we have begun, we come to a standstill; and I should feel shame, not for myself but for the Church of which am bishop, if that fear were to be realised. But I trust that you all will exert yourselves to the utmost of your power to save us from the unpleasant necessity of having to leave the building half-finished."
Bishop Perry at the laying of the College foundation stone, 10th February, 1870.
Trinity has always lived a hand-to-mouth existence, despite the efforts of all five Wardens to bring a measure of financial security. Dr. Alexander Leeper ran the College on a "farming" system, collecting the student fees and in turn being personally responsible for the domestic and academic arrangements. The patriotic depletion of the College in the First World War caused him and the College great financial hardship.
Dr. John Behan made a concerted effort to build the College permanently in stone, backed by a substantial endowment for scholarships and the stipends of a Provost and Fellows. The magnificent Behan building is his lasting memorial, together with the essential, but nevertheless insufficient, trust funds set up as a result of his untiring work.
Mr. Ronald Cowan too saw clearly that the survival of Colleges in the long run depended on adequate independent funding, and in particular on endowments for maintenance and general purposes. Student fees could

operate the facilities, but not renew or enhance them. He extended the College to a more economically viable size by building the Memorial (`Jeopardy') and Cowan Buildings, but tragically died before his work, which depended on an intimate knowledge of the Trinity graduates, could be consolidated.
Dr. Robin Sharwood, the fourth Warden, inherited the older College buildings just at the stage when either renovation or rebuilding had become essential. He inspired an Appeal in 1967 which enabled the complete refurbishing of Clarke. Five years later came an Appeal to establish a Centenary Endowment Fund. By now the Universities Commission had been established by the Commonwealth Government, and it was ready to help Colleges with necessary capital works.
As a result, Bishops' too was renovated in time for the advent of the fifth Warden, and the coming of women residents, in 1974.
Largely because of the radical unrest of the late sixties, all Melbourne Colleges suffered a savage, but temporary, drop in demand for places in 1970 and 1971. Trinity was no exception. The result was that money for running expenses was short at the very time that the Universities Commission was making capital improvements possible. Mr. John W. Wilson was appointed as the College's first full-time Bursar to give continuing attention to this difficult problem. Among other things, Mr. Wilson and Dr. Sharwood instituted a comprehensive overhaul of the accounting system, negotiated realistic insurance cover, and actively promoted the College as a centre for conventions and conferences. When Dr. Sharwood laid down the Wardenship at the end of 1973, he was able to report to the Council that the finances of the College were in a generally healthy state.
Already there were clouds on the horizon, but no-one
could have predicted how quickly the storm was to break.
Dr. Evan L. Burge, on accepting the Wardenship, was warned by his predecessor that finance would be the biggest single problem facing the College. During the six months' interregnum between fourth and fifth Wardens, Australia was hit by the highest rate of inflation the country had ever known. In addition, massive sums were added to domestic costs by granting equal pay for women. College employees received large flow-ons from awards made in the hotel industry; a bonus of 171% was added to annual holiday pay; and the cost of meat began to soar. Successive meetings of the Executive and Finance Committee anxiously contemplated the spectre of a huge deficit. The new Warden feared that the College was heading for financial shipwreck. Indeed, there was a widespread belief, shared by the Universities Commission, that many Colleges around Australia would succumb. Directions for winding up Colleges and handing them over to Universities for centralized administration as student residences were drawn up in Canberra and published in the 1974 Report of the Universities Commission.
In these unprecedented and perilous circumstances, the fifth Warden drastically curtailed the College's administrative, domestic, and ground staff, raised fees during the year, and instituted an era of student self-help. Students now made their own beds and undertook a variety of tasks from waiting on tables to gardening. The positions of Bursar and House Manager were united, and Mr. A. W. Todd who inherited the combined responsibility introduced a programme of drastic cost-cutting, especially in catering. At the same time, annual fee rises, always lower than the inflation rate, became inevitable.
A great blow in 1975 was the loss of the annual six-week
School of Business Administration held in Trinity for twenty-one years during the summer vacation. For a time, it seemed likely that the University would build a permanent centre for this and similar management conferences within the College. The plan, which appeared to be our financial salvation, came to nought when, instead, the Town House Motel was acquired for the purpose. The promised gain was turned into an irreparable loss, from which the College is still recovering. It is hard to know what might have happened if the tide of the late sixties had not turned, and the Warden was engulfed in an increasing flood of applications to enter the College. As early as 1976, it became possible to increase revenue by using the small bedrooms of Clarke as bedstudies for first-year students. The motive was economic, but there was unforeseen gain. Freshers and seniors now shared the same corridors, and the increase in numbers meant more frequent chances to meet and talk.
It was not economics but response to demand that led to a similar move in 1979 to give Freshers the small Cowan bedrooms, smaller than those of Clarke. There have, of course, been economic advantages in this policy too, but it is not desirable to continue to use these cramped rooms in this manner any longer than necessary. When any additional accommodation is built, the aim must not be to increase the overall College size but to deploy space and facilities in a more humane way.
For the past decade, the College has continued its traditional hand-to-mouth existence fairly successfully in a harsh inflationary climate, due to stringent economies and rising demand for places. The present Bursar, Mr. E. Paine, has developed the accounting system further and introduced modern computerized methods. There is, however, no longer any prospect of large capital sums, even on a matching basis, from governments. There are even threats of abolishing the per capita Commonwealth Grants which now provide about $200 p.a. for each student.
The vision of the successive Wardens remains valid. The Collegiate life and style we have inherited deserves to be fostered. Looking after a College of the complexity of Trinity today leaves little time or energy for wardenical fundraising. The way ahead must surely be, as is already happening in the other Trinity Colleges around the world, to set up a Development Trust with its own executive officer to care for the on-going financial needs of the College. There is no shortage of enthusiasm and support for Trinity, but we need the resources to mobilise and sustain it.
Ten years after the last Appeal it is not too soon to secure the future of a College which means so much to so many.
The way ahead for us, too? This plaque in Trinity College Dublin is typical of similar acknowledgments. in colleges around the world.

FLEUR-DE-LYS DINNER 1981
The Annual Dinner of the Union of the Fleur-de-Lys will be held on Friday, May 1st, 1981, at 8.00 p.m., in the College Dining Hall. An invitation to members of the College and their husbands or wives is enclosed with this Newsletter. The Secretary of the Union, Mr. Tony Buzzard, said recently to the Warden: "Please advise people to reply early. After the growing numbers in the past few years we may have to turn late applicants away."
The usual brief Annual General Meeting of the Union, with the election of President, Secetary and Committee, will be held in the Junior Common Room shortly before the Dinner, during the pre-dinner drinks.
THE LONDON DINNER
The Fleur-de-Lys Dinner held at Boodles Club on Friday, 7th November 1980 was an elegant and festive occasion attended by twentyseven people. Arrangements had been in the hands of Mark Johnson ('58) who then found himself caught up in the hectic round of negotiations necessary to establish a new Australian bank. On the night of the Dinner he was actually back . briefly in Sydney. Fortunately, his role as organizer was ably filled by David Emmerson ('59).
As mentioned in his report elsewhere, the Warden arrived in Mayfair by Rolls Royce as befitted such a gathering. He, Boyd Munro, ('61) and his partner Sarah Key, were soon joined at pre-dinner drinks by people who had been in Trinity during the six years of the fifth Wardenship. These included Roderick Lyle ('74) who was completing a Master's Degree in London and is now back as a Resident Law Tutor in Trinity, Graham Pilkington ('74) and his partner Denise McInnes, Jane Clark ('77), John Adamson (17) and Rupert Myer ('76). The anteroom now filled rapidly. David Emmerson and his wife Alexandra came early, and reported that despite valiant efforts it was impossible to find a slide projector and screen at short notice. Perhaps such things were not appropriate for Boodles in any case. The Warden pocketed his box of slides and produced instead a set of five large recent colour photographs of Trinity to remind the gùests of the College and its present appearance. A contingent came from Magdalen College Oxford — Charles Sampford ('71) with his wife Jenny, Elsdon Storey ('73) and Peter Robinson ('75). Bishop John McKie ('28) came down from Coventry, George Myers ('65) from Manchester Grammar Schopl, and Kevin Gallagher ('55) with his daughter Deidre Vaizey from Swansea, where he is Senior Lecturer in Chemistry.
As well as the wives, two members of Janet Clarke Hall came in their own right — Robyn Vines and Anne Skelley. Concert pianist Geoffrey Saba ('64) and his wife Delphine were there, as was the Chaplain to London University Peter Hughes ('64). The party was completed by Glen Pike ('66), David Fenton ('62), and Michael Hamer ('69).
Altogether, it was a lively and splendidly representative group of Trinity supporters.
When the doors were opened to the room set for dinner, what a splendid sight it was. The room itself is large, beautifully proportioned and decorated in the classical style. A classicist might have noticed some influence of the House of the Vettii in Pompeii. A single long polished table with rounded ends was handsomely set with fine silver. Sounds of festive conviviality were soon echoing through the building as the party remembered Trinity incidents from the recent or more distant past and the Warden's photographs were passed around.
The menu suited the occasion; Quail Egg Vol-auVent; Roast Rack of Lamb; and an unusual dessert, Creme Brulee. Possibly some fine Australian wines would have been the ideal accompaniment, but nobody wanted to disparage the Coeur des Lanciers and the Ch.de. Barbe CB 1976 which Boodles provided.
During the coffee and Old Master Tawny Port, the Warden spoke on recent news from the College, and the thoughts that had occurred to him while visiting other Trinity Colleges around the world.
He recalled some famous practical jokes of the thirties, and then recounted some more recent examples of youthful exuberance, such as the note, ostensibly over his signature, sent to Freshers explaining that because of the copper water pipes only certain brands of soap and toothpaste were permitted. A perplexed Bursar found himself confronted by earnest students wanting permission to use the Colgate's given them by their anxious parents.
The Warden concluded his address:
"So we have a lively community, one that people are glad to belong to, one where they can be genuinely happy. To maintain it in its attractive but aging buildings is costly — in terms of money and effort. Why bother? The answer must be that the Collegiate ideal of University education is intrinsically valuable. Colleges exist primarily to enhance the quality of University education.
The lecture and examination system of the Australian Universities is good in terms of passing on a body of known knowledge and theory. The individual tutorial system of Oxford and Cambridge is better at provoking individual thought and the questioning of one's own assumptions. My recent visit to Oxford and my old tutor Russell Meiggs, now in retirement, has reminded me of how much I owe to having my thoughts examined ruthlessly every week by a great and good man. We can certainly do more in the stimulation of our students by encouraging discussion in the manner of Socrates.
It is, however, in a third way that the Melbourne Colleges make their own best contri-
bution: the apprenticeship in learning. This is what our tutorial system is all about — not solving the students' problems for them, but showing them how to set about solving them for themselves, and doing this in the freedom of one-to-one consultation, or the fairly informal small group. Here ignorance can be revealed, or misunderstandings cleared up, without one's reputation being tarnished in the eyes of a future examiner.
I have been in six Trinity Colleges in the past four weeks in Melbourne, Toronto, Hartford (Connecticut), Dublin, Oxford, Cambridge. In all of them I have felt at home, because the similarities are far greater than the differences. All have similar community rituals and customs-the formal meals with gowns, high table and a Senior Common Room, the chapel and choral evensong once or more each week, opportunities for sport, recreation, and discussion. Every one of them has good library. And every one of them faces the problem of maintaining a tradition of excellence when there is a growing gap between revenue from student fees and the needs for the maintenance and development of the College.
This gap is met from two main sources: holding of conferences, which make our facilities available to the wider community as well as increasing our revenue, and the support of donors who value what Colleges stand for. Trinity College Toronto for instance receives from her alumni a third of a million dollars in donations every year.
Like all the Trinities, we must soon appoint a Development Officer, and set about planning an Appeal for 1982. Tonight is not about money. That must, however, come in due course, because we must continue to cherish and build the inheritance we have received. Tonight is about building a sense of loyalty and affection for the College. We are not just dormitories or residences. We are a COMMUNITY and the community of Trinity College Melbourne exists not only in Parkville, but, as it has been a joy to discover, around the world.
The provost of Trinity College Dublin, Professor Lyons, had lunch last Saturday in Trinity College Melbourne. I hope he enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed my visit to his older and greater University College. He is about to publish a book on W.B. Yeats, the Irish poet. You'll forgive me, then, for ending with two lines from Yeats, for they sum up something of what Trinity College Melbourne means to us all.
Think where man's glory most begins and ends, And say, mì glory was I had such friends.'

Cantab., Hon. LL.D. Monash
Sir Frank is a member of Trinity College, Cambridge, a former Archbishop of Melbourne, and the longest serving President of the Trinity College Council ex officio, 1958-1977. From 1971 to 1977 he was Primate of Australia. In spite of the enormous load of other commitments he regularly presided over College Council meetings giving attention to detail and the overall formation of College policy such as would have been worthy of a man able to give these things his undivided attention. Since his retirement he has maintained a special interest in the work of the Theological School. He has been a leader, not only in the Anglican Church but in the ecumenical movement, where he has inspired others through his generous and open personality, his deep spirituality, and his profound commitment to the cause of Christ. He holds Trinity in special affection.
THE TRUTH WILL OUT: WHO MOVED THE STONE?
Here is my account of the Behan Foundation Stone incident It is exactly as I wrote it at the time, except that I have condensed the part about the tutors' return which though it added greatly to the excitement then seems less important now.
In explanation, the new building (Behan) blocked the other path to the hostel (J.C.H.), but at that stage it was possible to return to the college by approximately the same route by coming through the open northern end of the
cloister. There was then no connection between the Behan and Clarke cloisters.
A big mound of earth had been heaped up in front of the cloister and covered with builders'lanks to form a platform for the ceremony. In fact this mound was eventually incorporated with the grassed slope along the whole length. The outer walls, and some of the inside walls of the ground floor were complete and the stone was in the first room to the right of Staircase A on the Sydney Road side, which had a ramshackle temporary door with a padlock.
For the moment I have no further reminiscences to offer and unfortunately my diary goes no further back than 1934. I think the events of 1933 which led to the dissolution of the Fleur-de-Lys Club and the closure of the buttery would be worthy of a historian's research as they did make a great di ference to the nature and quality of college life. The strange selfimposed monasticism that prevailed then would seem incomprehensible in today's undergraduates, but after 1933 something vital was suppressed that did not reappear in my time. Possibly our effort with the foundation stone was a gesture.
The idea had hatched itself some days before, and after Hall on Friday, April 27th 1934 we gathered in Parson's study in Upper Clarke. Peter Parsons, Jack Voss-Smith, Doug Leslie, Jack Millar, Dasher Hodge, John Stawell and myself. Somewhere about 8.30 we went to investigate the new building, and found the door of the room where the stone was quite easy to break open. We had not seen the stone before and it seem tremendous. We recruited Jamie Newton to lend his strength and somehow it was manhandled through the door and placed on a two-wheeled trolley on the cloisers. There were still a lot of people about and in any case we didn't then know where we were going to
hide it. So we went back to Clarke for talk and supper till about 12.30. Newton had gone to bed, but Checker Hughes had joined us and he and VossSmith acted as look-outs while the rest of us worked. We lifted four planks of the platform built for the ceremony next day and Jack Millar and I began to dig, the earth being put in bags which the others carried away and dumped behind Clarke. It was pretty cold and unpleasant working in stockinged feet and the earth was very hard. Digging took a long time and we wanted to be absolutely sure that the stone would fit in the hole. Finally it was finished (about 2.30) and we began cautiously to wheel the trolley along the cloisters. Just then Hodge and Leslie, who were emptying the last bag of earth came hurrying back to warn us that Alcock and O'Brien (tutors) were returning some women to the Hostel so we took cover, leaving the stone on its trolley in the middle of the cloisters.
I was pressed into the angle of one of the pillars and had a nasty moment when they crossed the Clarke's end of the cloister, but they went into the Clarke's door .... , and we did too, but by way of lower Clarke II and so up to Parson's and Voss-Smith's study where we sat in the dark by the fire and wondered what to do. However, about half an hour later scouts reported O'Brien leaving and Alcock going to bed, so we stole forth again. We wheeled the thing into position and set it up beside the hole. Very carefully we lowered it in, and then by bad luck one end of the hole caved in under the weight, and one corner of the stone was left sticking up about four inches. We burrowed under it and jumped on it and finally got it down and covered it with a sack. Then we replaced the planks, swept the platform and stowed everything away leaving no trace, and went to bed. (I was then living in Vatican).
Next morning at breakfast everyone was talking about it.
Someone said the workmen had said that moving it would mean breaking it, and fragments had been found. The general idea was that it had been broken, and nobody knew where it was. Doug Leslie and I retired unobtrusively to the Anatomy School where gradually the troops assembled (except for Jack Voss-Smith who was still in bed) reporting that the Warden was frantic and was digging up the jumping pit and had ordered a new stone to be cut. He was said to have been coming from Chapel with Palfreyman (tutor) who jestingly suggested it might have been stolen, so they went to have a look. The Warden then became frantic, rushed to the Chapel, searched the incinerator, the new cellars, and the other college grounds. What we had to decide now was how to bring the affair to a satisfactory conclusion. We decided that we'd had our bit of fun, so Jock might now be allowed to have his. In the end we made a telephone call to the Lodge suggesting that he be told to look under his feet (i.e. under the platform) and when we returned to Trinity it was all over.
The ceremony was a great success and a happy time was had by all, including the Warden and the conspirators.
The "Star" that evening had a poster and heading "Trinity Foundation Stone Stolen", and all the papers reported it in good spirit. Next day the Warden put up a notice thanking all who had helped to make the ceremony a success, which one of us souvenired. It was amusing afterwards to listen to people's theories.
I write this as a personal record of what will, I suppose, become a memory, a tradition, and then be forgotten.
We are grateful to Dr. David C. Jackson ('32) for the vivid account above. Could anyone take up his suggestion and write about the closure of the Buttery? It would be good too, to hear about College Initiations — what happened, and how they were abolished?

GEORGE CHARLTON TOOTELL
Charlton Tootell, Honorary Treasurer of the College for twenty-one years under three Wardens, died suddenly on December 19, 1980. He was dedicated to the advancement of the profession of accountancy, the author of a number of papers on accounting matters, and President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants from 1960 to 1962. As well as being Director of number of Public Companies, he found time to serve the Adult Deaf and Dumb Society of Victoria, of which he was Vice-President.
When he resigned as Treasurer of Trinity College in 1967, the Council's Minute of Appreciation inçluded the following:
"The Council and Executive Officers of Trinity came to rely very heavily indeed on Mr. Tootell's wisdom and shrewd judgement, and the care and attention he devoted to the College's affairs were as extensive as they were effective. In the difficult period between the death of the third Warden and the assumption of office of the fourth, his contribution to maintaining the administration of the College was of decisive importance. His exemplary and almost single-handed management of the affairs of the Trinity College (Melbourne) Trusts Corporation deserves special commendation, but only as one excellence among many."
He will be remembered as a modest and wise man, who won the respect and affection of all who came to know him.
E.S. HUGHES CLUB — NEW RACING EIGHT
After Trinity's successes in the intercollegiate rowing last year, a special dinner of the E.S. Hughes Club was held to raise funds for the purchase of a new eight. The old seconds' eight, the KB. Mason, had long since passed reitrement age, and has now been sold. The proceeds, together with money raised at the dinner and from subscriptions to the Club, have enabled the purchase of a magnificent new boat, the Arthur Godfrey. The former firsts' boat, the W. Balcombe Griffiths, is still in excellent shape, and both firsts and seconds crews have every chance in the coming race on Thursday, 19th March.
The new boat was christened on the river bank
late in February by Arthur Godfrey's wife, Pam. Arthur himself, with a notable record as an oarsman and coach, came with her from Queensland for the occasion. We hope to send him news of annual victories in the boat which bears his name.

The new Moorhouse Flats with landscaping in progress. The older buildings are the Vatican at the back and the Laundry on the right.
The ceremony of dedication was attended by over two hundred people despite an appallingly hot day of 40°C. The fine choral singing, directed by the College Organ Scholar, John Beaverstock, at Evensong before the Dedication lifted the thoughts of the large congregation beyond the trying weather to joyous worship.
As Honorary Director of the Theological School Centenary Appeal, Bishop Grant has now been instrumental in raising $130,000, almost singlehanded, towards the cost of the Stewart House (where Dr. John Gaden and his family live) and the new Moorhouse Building. We still need $60,000 to reduce capital repayments to the point where rents from the house and flats can begin to support an additional, badly needed, theological lecturer.
"In the final analysis", said the Warden, paying tribute to Bishop Grant's work and acknowledging the generosity of parishes and individual donors, "this Appeal is not so much about bricks and mortar, attractive and essential though these buildings are, but about people. We cannot encourage married theological students of high calibre to come, and then have nowhere for them to live where they can relate to the College. And we must find ways to increase the Anglican contribution to the United Faculty of Theology, without casting impossible burdens upon the Chaplain, the Revd. Rodney Oliver, and even more upon the Director of the Theological School, Dr. John Gaden."
The College is grateful to Archbishop Robert Dann ('43) for the cheerful readiness with which he agreed to come on an exhausting day (the diocesan ordinations took place the morning) to dedicate this building. It marks a significant milestone in the history of both Trinity and its Theological School.
The other building, in the corner nearest Ormond and the University Oval, is Dorothy. It was built as Male Staff Quarters by Dr. Behan Like the Squash Court on another corner, it was built solidly to prevent any encroachment on the College grounds by the University. Nick Turnbull ('36) and John Piercey ('30) are confident that it was named Dorothy after Dorothy Ryall who became Matron in 1930. Does anyone remember the actual circumstances of the naming of Dorothy?
It housed Male Domestic Staff from the 1930's until last year when it was converted to house 13 students. The landscaping of the surrounding area, and the development of the handsome old staff lounge room (which had served as a storeroom for past ten years) to be a tutorial room has meant that this once remote corner is now a familiar part of the College.
A relaxed moment before a recent Council meeting: Bishop Grant, the Warden, Dr. Gaden, and Archbishop Dann share a joke outside the new Moorhouse Building.
MOORHOUSE FLATS OPENED
Bishop Moorhouse was both a generous benefactor of the College a century ago and the Founder of its Theological School. It was fitting, therefore, to commemorate him in the naming of the new block of four flats for married students and tutors which has just been built between Dorothy and the Vatican. This back corner of the College, well-known to domestic staff but hardly to students, has now been transformed beyond recognition. This handsome building, designed by George Mitchell and David Eyres (53) of Mockridge, Stahle & Mitchell, and built by John Frogley and Associates, fits its surroundings so perfectly that it looks as if it has always been there. A plaque reads:
THE MOORHOUSE BUILDING
This building named in honour of James Moorhouse second Bishop of Melbourne and Founder in 1878 of the Theological School of Trinity College, was dedicated and opened by The Most Reverend Robert W. Dann, President of the College Council, on 15th February, 1981 It has been erected through the generous response of individuals and parishes to the Theological School Centenary Appeal.
Honorary Director of the Appeal: The Right Reverend J. A. Grant.
"DOROTHY" and "VATICAN"
The new Moorhouse building has brought the two older buildings between which it stands into prominence.
The older of the two is Vatican, where in earlier times the Warden had his study and Syd Wynn, at the other end, his workshop. Not a few distinguished Trinity men have lived there, especially seniors heading towards the medical profession. The title, "The Vatican", was given it as a wry jest by the Revd. Esmond Sutton who lived there as Chaplain from 1925 to 1927. The joke appealed to his successor, T. M. Robinson, and the title has continued to the present day, even though it is a long time since a Chaplain has actually lived there.
The present Chaplain, the Revd. Rodney Oliver ('50), recently moved his study into Vatican. It is a very suitable place, combining easy access with privacy.
