Qbitorat UR American cousins are a more cautious

; people than we had supposed; they do not enter rashly on hare-brained schemes, they prepare carefully before doing any-thing. The North

African expedition is proof enough; but, more than that, we have recently learned at first hand that they even go to the trouble of hav-ing a rehearsal for Christmas.

The fourth Thursday in November is American Thanksgiving Day. It was originally held by the 'Mayflower' Pilgrim Fathers in the autumn of 5621 as a thanksgiving for the first harvest reaped in the New World. On Thursday, November 26th, 1789, George Washington ordered a day of thanksgiving for the estab-lishment of the Federal Constitution, and in 5864 Abraham Lincoln inaugurated the series which has led to the festival this year, which

we have been privileged to witness at close quarters.

Family reunions are the main feature of 'Turkey Day.' Church in the morning, and

dinner in the evening, are the order of the day.

As we see from the nickname, turkey is the

main dish at dinner, turkey served with plenty of cranberry sauce.

And so, of course, when Christmas Day

does come, the Christmas dinner profits from

the mistakes made on 'Turkey Day.' The sauce is flavoured to a nicety, the turkey itself is done

to a turn. And after the festivities are over, the

American children creep up to bed, murmuring

softly to themselves as they munch their last

mouthful of candy: 'Gee! Christmas comes

but twice a year.'

78 ST. EDWARD'S SCHOOL CHRONICLE. DEC. 1942

Jott At Gaudy the news was full of set-backs and

disasters, and comment degenerated into re-crimination; we had little but faith and deter-mination to keep us cheerful. The Sunday before Commemoration the Chapel bells joined in the campanological celebration of the Eighth Army's victory at El Alamein, and since then the Allied cause has prospered in Africa, in Russia, in the Pacific, and in France.. The United Nations are now reaping the harvest of careful planning, and the Axis are forced into hasty improvisation. We shall all go away for - the Christmas holidays with lighter hearts, even though we may have to forego still more of the traditional Christmas fare than before.

Two hundred and ninety boys in the School had never heard the Chapel bells ring; there was, of course, no boy in the School who had ever rung them. Two ex-Senior Prefects, Mr. Segar and Mr. Eardley, with one assistant from outside, made the team.

There are sixty-four new boys this term, and 394 boys in the School. We welcome to St. Edward's Mr. J. R. Scarr and Mr. S. H. Shep-perd. Mr. Scarr teaches English and French, and Mr. Shepperd Art.

The Sacrament of Confirmation was adminis-tered by the Lord Bishop of Oxford on Thurs-day, November 12th. There were seventy-two candidates.

Commemoration was held on Sunday, Novem-ber 22nd. The preacher was the Rev. P. C. Underhill, O.S.E.

The Summer Term ended with three days' manoeuvres by the Junior Training Corps. The Canal Bank, Shotover, and the Water Eaton fields provided battlefields within marching distance.

Mrs. Edith Cowie, widow of the Rev. Arthur Cowie (Second Master, 1872-188o), has left the School £i,000 in her will.

The Rev. C. S. Green, O.S.E., has presented a copy of the Corfe Castle village sign, painted by J. Hodgson Lobley. It represents the young St. Edward, and its bright colours enliven the

wall between the Memorial Chapel and the Nave.

Lieut. H. C. D. Cooper, O.S.E., has pre-sented a library of English poetry to the School in memory of his father.

On November 12th Mr. J. H. R. Lynam kindly invited a party of seventy boys to the Dragon School's performance of 'The Gondo-liers.' No one who saw it could fail to be impressed by the freshness and vigour of the performance, which was free from the stereo-typed mannerisms of the professional version.

On October 31st Lieut. Trafford, R.N.V.R., gave a lecture to the School on the training of the 'Y' Scheme Cadet. He showed a film which illustrated the various stages in a cadet's train-ing from his interview to his passing-out.

On December 8th Vice-Admiral Bedford lec-tured to the Sixth Form on the Battle of the Falkland Islands, in which he fought in H.M.S. Kent. He also showed some slides of the Navy's work in the war.

More boys than before worked on the land during the summer holidays. For the third year running there was a Radley—St. Edward's Forestry Camp in the West Country, and we broke new ground on farms near Ross-on-Wye and among the plum orchards in Evesham. Some account appears below. When we returned from the holidays we found that some forty acres of the playing fields had been ploughed and sown with corn. For the first three weeks of term boys were busily lifting the potatoes from the allotments beyond the Avenue Field.

ST. BED'E'S We have long watched and secretly admired

the cities built in the sand along St. Edward's Avenue, which provide unending employment for budding architects, builders, masons, and landscape gardeners. The competition in Arts and Crafts therefore came as no surprise. Diminutive models of warships, whose gun-turrets revolved and whose rigging was made of human hair, and architectural drawings par-ticularly caught the eye.

There have been the usual football matches. We no longer dare to ask which side won.

Commemoration NOVEMBER 22ND, 1942

The third war-time ' Cornmem.' may have been, as it was described, a sort of token payment, but it was, none the less, paid in good currency. There was a sprinkling of Old Boys, and more than a sprinkling of Parents, so that the ' flaps ' in Chapel were called into service for the first time since the invention of Air Raid Precautions. We were very glad to see all those who made the effort to get here; the presence of the few O.S.E. linked us with the many who are otherwise engaged. In his ser-mon the Rev. P. C. Underhill described Commemoration in peace-time with the Chapel thronged with O.S.E. this year's could only be a spiritual reunion, but many would be thinking of their Mecca ' of schoolboy memories.

The other events of Commemoration were the same as last year : a football match on Saturday, this time against Wellington College, whose artillery was too strong for our defensive armour to withstand for the full length of the battle ; supper in Hall for the O.S.E., with carols afterwards. The Choir sang the old favourites, and some new carols which will soon become old favour-ites, and they have rarely been in better voice than they were this year. As we speeded our parting guests into a busless black-out, we realised what it had cost them to come, and what it had meant to us.

nber Qtanbas ROSS-ON-WYE

An average of thirty boys camped at Weir End Farm from August 15th to September 12th, and spent an energetic month harvesting, gathering potatoes, and fruit picking—our salvation from bankruptcy during wet weather.

We were very fortunate in our camp site on the Wye and in our host, Mr. Keene, who did everything possible for our comfort. In fact, we owe a deep debt of grati-tude to everyone with whom we came in contact, War Executive Committee, farmers, the Food Office, and the shops, for their kind help.

Mr. Tilly was in charge the first fortnight, and Mr. Eardley got the catering arrangements working most efficiently before he left. The Warden arrived to take over on August 29th, to the accompaniment of the worst thunderstorm of recent years; he immediately performed a notable feat in driving his car in the black-out down a greasy, precipitous track beside the river, led by Mr. Gauntiett's torch. Ignorance was bliss Mr. Gauntlett became an indefatigable labour manager and camera-man.

We were very lucky to have with us, for a fortnight each, the chefs Mr. Osborne and Mr. Seabright, who performed marvels on the stove provided for us; there were constant demands for ' seconds.'

80 ST. EDWARD'S SCHOOL CHRONICLE. DEC. 1942

Our last evening in camp we entertained the farmers, their families and men to an informal party, which developed into a very cheery sing-song. We were quite sorry when the time came to strike camp and to say good-bye to our many friends at Ross, but we hope to be there again next summer.

We append the impressions of one of the campers :— Amidst a dazed memory of Spuds, Worcesters, and

what-not, four facts are plain—we worked, we helped, we ate, and we enjoyed ourselves. Many of us had never camped before, but any feeling of inexperience vanished within a few hours, and the smallest of us could grapple with the most temperamental of Army bell-tents. The alleged horrors of sleeping seven in a tent on palliasses were dispelled with the dawn mists of the second day.

The camp was on the banks of the River Wye, in which a home-made bath was rigged, into which we plunged, numbly but conscientiously, before breakfast. Many surprising faces were dimly seen through the mist, not unclouded with doubt and agony, but the after-feeling of self-righteous superiority was worth it.

We worked longish hours at different farms, some as much as three miles away; we bicycled furiously to and from our various jobs and our meals.

When we left Ross we were firm friends with all the farmers and their men. The greatest and most invalu-able of our friends was Mr. Keene; he took us to the flicks, he sheltered us during the storm. We hope we repaid him fully. Old Bill with his fluffles ' and Jim Wood from Teague's were typical of our friends from the fields. Finally, we threw a party for them all. How stickily it started! but how well it ended ! An invitation to adjourn for further entertainment elsewhere had to he regretfully, but firmly, refused.

Finally, we must thank al those who gave up their time for us—the Warden, Mr. Tilly, Mr. Eardley, Mr. Gauntlett and Mr. Keeling -for it is to them that we owe the success of the camp.

EVESHAM FRUIT-PICKING CAMP, JULY 29TH TO AUGUST 30TH.

Owing to a plethora of plums, of which about one million, or 99 per cent., reached the jam manufacturers, a painful time was had by all.

BUCKFASTLEIGH FORESTRY CAMP The Forestry Camp was at Buckfastleigh this year; as

in the two previous years, it was a joint affair with Radley. In spite of deluges of rain a very reasonable amount of work was done; perhaps more would have been accomplished had we had good weather, and so been allowed to get hardened off ' early. On the whole the work was more interesting than it was in previous years: we not only cut up trees, we cut them down, too, and made a precipitous 90-yard corrugated-iron chute, down which we cast nine-foot timbers, the hammer, nine-foot pit-props, six-foot-six pit-props, the hammer, waste oil for lubrication, four-foot-six pit-props, the hammer, and three-foot pit-props. Some of the larger bits of wood stuck on the way down, or found their way into the woods besides the chute, and had to be man-handled : the hammer always got to the bottom without a stop. There was a lot of ' extracting ' and piling to

do, too—endlessly throwing down the steep hill bits of wood of all sizes; and the nine-foot timber went 18 to the 5-ton lorry. Perhaps felling was the most popular work; though, owing to the work's being scattered all over the sides of two steep converging valleys, it was difficult to know exactly what everyone was doing.

The camp itself was excellently run and fed, as always must be the case with Mr. Gardiner of Radley in charge, with Mr. Cocks and Miss Comyn to help. There was never even a case of ' Well, one must expect such things with cooking in the open during a deluge '; everything —and, in camp, that means the food—was perfectly done.

For relaxation there was a cinema, where twice weekly one could see the cream of the cinematographic art in its early days : quality being preferred to modernity. There was Dartmoor to re-discover, and, by damming, we converted the stream which bounded the camp site into a very passable bathing pool.

There were not, perhaps, so many outstanding events as at previous camps; the perpetual rain may have caused this. The doctor was only visited by two of our number, though unexpectedly splitting trees, rolling timbers and sheets of corrugated-iron caracoling from the chute seemed to cause temporary heart failure in the more responsible members of the party.

There was nobody there who would have preferred to spend his holiday otherwise. The rain was a nuisance, of course, but hardly so annoying as it can be in other circumstances : perhaps the chief ill-effect of the rain was in never allowing us to get five consecutive days' gruelling work done, so that our first tiredness seemed to return, rather than simply to exist as a pleasant memory after the first week. At our camps in other years we have always got our second wind' after the first week, and been able to get through a good deal more work per person.

'unbap, 15tj obtmber, 1942 The bells of England, freed for one brief hour

From voiceless sojourn 'neath the cloud of war, Peeled out from every age-encrusted tower,

And heavenward man's sincere thanksgiving bore.

From humble village churches, too, they rang In prim simplicity; cathedral bells

With mellow discord an4 harmonious clang Tolled with abandoned joyousness their knells.

The bells of England, silenced once again, Now wait that day when, Freedom's flag unfurled,

They may in gladness peal th' victorious strain, And raise to God the thanks of all the world.

Ijc Tbunbtrotorm It was evening, and the sky was dark, Dark as the depths of deepest sea, Dark as the home of Milton's Melancholy, As Stygian cave forlorn ' could ever be. Soon rain began to strike the falling leaves, As though in contest with a wind that howled, Trying to gain a discourse with the trees, Struggling with the rhin; and yet night scowled.

DEC. 1942 Si. EDWARD'S SCHOOL CHRONICLE.

Heavier still it fell, like tapping drums, Working slowly, steadily from a gentle sound Up to a mighty, awful, loud crescendo, Bringing applause from whispering trees around. Then 'mongst a torrent of fast-rushing noise Irregularly beating in the black, A mighty sound, like Jove's most awesome bolt, Startled the earth with terrifying crack; With one great blast, majestic in its power, It seemed to break the very heav'ns apart. Then followed crash on crash of that dire sound And, intermingled, shone that fiery dart That men call lightning. Swift it flashed, And then was gone but to appear again; The sky was filled with din and light, The heav'ns were damp, though fresh, with rain. The clamour still increased until It reached the summit of its might, And there it paused, rejoicing in its gain Of victory o'er the still of night. And then, as though it loosed its hold With deepest sorrow and reluctance deep, It fell, and gradually quiet and peace Became established, and the world knew sleep.

gc anb Poutb I wish that I were older, so That I could look back on the things I know, To play with memories far from dead; I wish that I were old,' the young man said.

I wish that I were young again, Young and unworried, carefree as the rain That falls in March.' His poor heart bled. I wish that I were young,' the old man said.

Itjt Vanttp of juertLe Wizbez (With apologies to Dr. Johnson.)

Let Observation's keen and piercing sight Survey the School with ill-concealed Delight, And notice in her most sarcastic Way For what strange things the students humbly pray. Some pray for Brains, and others yet for Brawn, But nothing seems to raise their State forlorn.

For who would be a Brain, in Class confined, Developing his all too active Mind, Derided, mocked at, sneered at as a Swot, With No-one to console his wretched Lot? His very Virtues turn in him to Shame, Because he does not shine at any Game; Bullied in Dayroom, hissed at in Debate, Who would desire the Scholar's wretched Fate? But what of him who begs athletic Skill? He too finds Prowess quickly turns to ill At School he's lauded to the Skies with Praise, And endless round of Pleasure fills his Days, His Autograph is sought on every side, Up every Queue he gracefully may glide. But when he leaves, alas 1 what awful Doom

Plunges the former Hero into Gloom Condemned to sit on creaking office Chair, At ledgers and account books forced to stare, His sporting Skill is useless to him 'now, No Worshippers before him scrape and bow, And as he dreams of Days that now are past He curses Time for running on so fast.

What then remains for Prayer, if Brawn and Brain Bring noughf of Pleasure, everything of Pain? Pray to be rid of every Kind of Skill, Which always turns eventually to Ill; Eschew both Learning and the coloured Tie, For both will cost you many a heavy sigh. Better deformed in Body, void of Art, Than prematurely dead of broken Heart.

!IIje Turn of the Tibe I sat on a rock by the bleak sea-beach,

and watched the time come in it had run far out - ere it turned about,

and I watched the turn begin.

Little by little, and inch by inch, more and a little more,

it began to creep from the mystic deep

and travel towards the shore.

The wrack from the ocean's furrowed fields lay fringed on the cresting swell,

and the spindrift flew, as the fresh wind blew,

and the billows rose and fell.

imperceptibly, slowly, surely crept the advancing tide,

and the whole wide sea drew nearer to me,

as I sat on my rock astride.

And now in my ear the dull deep boom of the breakers along the beach

made thunderous sound, that mingled and drowned

the undertow's long-drawn screech.

Higher and higher the whelming flood, with a crash, with a foam, with a roar,

as of ancient right in resistless might

swept on, and captured the shore.

So now, to recover the earth, and man's lost heritage re-win,

from far and wide like the ocean's tide

the resistless flood sets in. G. T. MILLER.

ntonquera1te I have swum in raging torrents and plunging seas,

breaking over my head and dragging me under,— hollowing, swallowing, swift,—but to battle with these

was only a joy ;—I was never afraid of their thunder!

I have climbed through the trackless snows, and planted my feet

upon dazzling heights whence spring the imprisoned fountains

that burst at the glacier's foot, and fall in a sheet of foam to the valley below. I have conquered—the

mountains!

I have risen on eagle wings, and shouted to Death, as I drove through the blinding dark, with my brothers

flying to grapple the foe, 'If to-night were the Patest breath

I should draw, be it so! I am not afraid of dying!

I have fought the good fight, I have waited upon my God, keeping the faith and striving to follow the Master.

Has Calvary failed? Shall hell, at a tyrant's nod, yet bring on the City of Christ the supreme disaster?

Mr Training Corps No. 527 FLIGHT

The N.C.O.s of the Flight are Cadet-Sergeant N. C. Burtt and Cadet-Corporal R. N. Jones. Proficiency (Part I) Certificates have been gained by Cadets Hazel-ton, Jones v., Little, Lloyd-Davies, Pringle and Stagg. Mr. W. G. H. Weeks has been commissioned as Acting Pilot Officer, and we welcome his co-operation.

Last term the Flight had the privilege of a talk from SL. A. Stephenson on Recognition of Naval. Craft. The lecturer (who had taken part in Arctic and Antarctic Expeditlois) gave a fascinating and instructive exposi-tion of his subject. About the same time a visit was made to our parent Station we were unable to repeat this visit at the end of the term, and consequently sought and gained the assistance of more distant Stations. At these we were hospitably and instructively entertained. These latter visits involved a somewhat arduous cycle ride, but it was generally felt that the privilege of see-ing more advanced training was well worth the energy expended. A visit to our local Station this term resulted in many of the Cadets experiencing their first flight.

On Nov. 8th the Flight joined other Oxfordshire Squadrons for a Remembrance Day Service at the Cathedral ; this was followed by a march-past, the salute being taken by Air Chief Marshal Brooke-Popham.

Training continues apace.

if ootbaU ST. EDWARD'S v, RADLEY COLLEGE

Played away on Sat., Oct. 17th. Lost, 11-19.

The School won the toss and played down field with a following wind. Within a minute of the kick-off, Miller, the Radley centre, side-stepped his man and ran through to score, the try being converted. Wright then kicked a penalty goal for the School. Before half-time Radley again scored when Wakley broke through a loose scrummage in front of goal. The try was again con-verted. After some loose play in mid-field, however, Fox gathered the ball and ran through to score under the posts. Wright converted.

In the second half Radley, making great use of the wind, were the first to score, Temple breaking away to touch down. The kick failed, as did all others in this half. The School scored again after a forward rush, when Street went over after the ball had been passed along the line. Ridley added further tries through Miller and Temple. Teams:-

RADLsY.—R. 0. Meade-King; D. J. Harding, J. H. Daigliesh, J. L. Miller, A. P. F. Temple; R. C. Lucas, J. Talbot; W. R. V. Wakley (capt.), C. M. Webb, D. E. Matthews, D. R. Trail, R. P. Gordon, J. D. W. Saw-tell, J. J. Scott, A. St. G. Cartwright.

ST. EDWARD'S v. STOWE SCHOOL Played at home on Wed., Nov. 4th. Draw, o—ó,

This game was played under very bad weather condi-tions. Stowe began with a determined rush by their forwards, who were at first following up harder than the School pack. The School managed to keep their line intact and soon began to find their feet on the wet and muddy ground. The School had their share of attacking, but neither side could score. Teams

ST. EDWARD'S v. MARLBOROUGH COLLEGE

Played at home on Sat., Nov. 14th. Lost, 3-6.

Marlborough began to attack at once, and their for-wards showed definite all-round superiority. After con-tinued pressure, M. C. D. Richmond, taking advantage of an overlap created by his centre, scored near the corner flag; the try was unconverted. At the end of the first half the School forced the play into their opponents' half and Stagg, gathering the ball, on the right wing, ran diagonally through the defence to score in the left-hand corner. The kick failed.

In the second half Marlborough returned to the attack and were-awarded four penalty kicks running, inside the School twenty-five.' J. S. Muspratt succeeded in con-verting the last of these. Although attacking hard, the School failed to break through the Marlborough defence again. Teams :-

MARLBOROUGH—N. N. C. Lockhart; M. C. D. Rich-mond, A. J. B. Robinson, J. S. Muspratt, F. H. Larr; A. G. E. Stewart-Cox, H. F. Spurner; M. N. Conville, J. H. Pritchard, K. E. Norman-Smith, J. Wilson, B. B. Reiss, B. B Salmon, L. A. Whitton, P. G. C. Barber.

ST. EDWARD'S v. WELLINGTON COLLEGE

Played at home on Sat., Nov. 21st. Lost, 5-24,

The School opened the game in a promising way with a strong attack. Stagg neatly picked up the ball from the loose and ran round his man to score. Wright con-verted. Soon after, however, N. W. Dewing equalised the score and J. McR. Cormack converted his try. In the second half Wellington showed- themselves the superior team and the School pack was completely out-classed. Thus they increased their score considerably, scoring from two loose rushes; also V. S. Murray, the Wellington right wing, ran over twice in the last few minutes. Teams

ST. EDWARD'S v. EASTBOURNE COLLEGE Played away on Sat., Nov. 26th. Drawn, 12-12.

Eastbourne kicked off and pressed hard, scoring with a penalty after about ten minutes' play. Wright soon equalised, also with a penalty goal. The play was lively and open, the School getting the ball from practically every scrummage; the outsides, however, bunched their wings into touch. Eastbourne, succeeded with two more penalty goals just before half-time.

The scond half started with some hard and deter-mined play by both sides, Eastbourne getting rather more of the ball. Soon Stagg, following up a kick ahead after some hard shoving and quick heeling in the loose, gathered the ball and scored near the corner flag. The try was not converted. After some mid-field play the School forwards, pressing hard, succeeded in pushing the Eastbourne pack back to their line. The kick failed. Eastbourne then scored after some determined forward play; the try was not converted. The scores were equal-ised when Womersley succeeded with a penalty kick from the centre of the ten-yards line. Both teams then kept the ball in touch, so there was no further score.

Cricket Following last year's precedent, Senior House Matches

this year were again played on the League principle. As before, they were highly successful in that once more they proved the fact that 'the play all' system really does ensure the winning team really deserving their success. ,The winners this year were Macnamara's, who suc-

ceeded in all their matches but one, which was drawn with Tilly's, owing to a downpour of rain, which also unfortunately stopped play on that day and the day fol-lowing.

The main feature of the games this year was high and consistent scoring, which predominated throughout. Necessarily in such matches there must be several high scorers, and the most consistent of these were Bur-bidge, Williams and Henderson. The bowling honours were shared by Halliday and Shrosbree.

Winner

Rowing Bumpers were rowed on three nights, 22nd, 23rd and

24th July. As predicted by the results of the Senior and Junior Fours, there were some very powerful and neat crews. In the First Division, Macnamara's and Sing's retained their previous positions, the former as Head of the River, the latter as second. Macnamara's I had a long and powerful stroke, which enabled them to keep away from their opponents with ease. Macnamara's II, winners of the Senior Fours, and regarded by many as the outstanding boat on the river, made three bumps and came up into the First Division. Tilly's I, though un-doubtedly a fine crew on paper, proved disappointing and were bumped by Macnamara's II and Sing's III. The latter rowed well throughout, making three bumps. Macnamara's III, having broken the record in Junior Fours, again proved their worth by making four bumps altogether, and thus reached a position in the Second Division.

Sing's won the Cup for the highest Second House Four. Macnamara's won the West Cup with 64 points,

Sing's being second with 54. Apsley and Field House tied third with 38 points.

Head of the River Crew (Macnamara's I): Bow, J. G. Dalrymple; 2, G. N. Pointer; 3, C. M. V. Townsend; stroke, A. C. Davies; cox, M. C. M. Smith.

The i1usitaL ocietp A meeting was held in the Old Library on Sunday

21st October, when M. G. Knight gave a talk on Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. After denying its associa-tion with British propaganda or its similarity to any letter of the Morse code, he analysed the work in detail, illustrating his remarks with gramophone records. A performance of the whole work brought his interesting lecture to a close.

The second meeting of the term was held in the Old Library on Sunday, November 8th, when B. J. M. Tovey gave a talk on Sir Edward Elgar, to whom we were introduced by a recording of the ' Cockaigne ' overture. Tovey then gave a xhort account of Elgar's early struggles for recognition, his pecuniary difficulties, his marriage, and his ultimate success. He finished his sketch of the great composer by playing extracts from ' The Dream of Gerontius ' and the famous ' Enigma ' Varia-tions.

rIje arts otiet A meeting was held in the School House reading room

on November 1st, when Mr. Keeling showed the mem-bers his magnificent model of a Gothic cathedral and gave a talk on its construction. A most convincing atmosphere was created by the skilful use of lighting in the model itself, while a gramophone provided appro-priate incidental music.

'ttenttttt & Qntneerin 'otietp. On Sunday, October i7th, the Hon. Secretary gave a

talk entitled ' Some Famous Bridges,' in which he de-scribed the Tay, Forth, Quebec and Menai bridges, and the bridges across the River Tyne at Newcastle. The talk was illustrated by a number of photographs of each of the bridges concerned.

The second meeting was held on November 1st, when the Vice-President showed us some films which had been obtained by J. A. Rose. They described how the skilled workmen of peace-time, such as the watchmaker, have been turned to more important, though just as skilled, jobs of war; how a squad of experienced engineers travels about the country instructing less experienced workers and mechanics; how accidents are dealt within factories and how an air-screw is manufactured and tested.

On Sunday, November 8th, R. A. W. G. Clayton gave a talk on the Development of the British Battleship.'

It was accompanied by pictures, shown on the epidia-scope, of nearly all the capital ships of Britain since 1891. Throughout the lecture he held the attention of the audience, supplying a great number of details, and afterwards answered several questions.

On Sunday, November 15th, a lecture on Farm Machinery ' was given by D. R. Brooks. He first com-pared old and modern methods of arable farming, and then went on to trace out the evolution of farm machin-ery as we now see it, right down to the tractor-drawn harvester which is now used widely, particularly in Canada. After the lecture some illustrations were shown, by means of the epidiascope, of the various machines used in arable and dairy farming.

literary 'otictp The Society has had three meetings this term. The

first was on Sunday, October 25th, when ' The Late Christopher Bean ' by Emlyn Williams was read. The reading was only moderate but gave some promise of improvement. On Sunday, November 15th, three one-act plays were read, ' The Little man ' by John Galsworthy, Campbell of Kilmhor' by J. A. Ferguson, and 'Thread

o' Scarlet ' by J. J. Bell. These provided plenty of variety and members threw themselves whole-heartedly into their parts. The last meeting was held on Sunday, November 29th, when Bernard Shaw's ' Androcles and the Lion was read. This was unquestionably the best meeting of the term. Henderson played the Lion with spirit, and Hewlett's interpretation of the Emperor de-serves mention. Hall ma. is the best performer, and his reading of both the American in ' The Little Man ' and Androcles in ' Androcles and the Lion ' was admirable.

Page 14: t4f tOutathiIt got Chranith

90 Si, EDWARD'S SCHOOL CHRONICLE. DEC. 1942

M. R. Goodman (Roll No. 2128) was at St. Edward's from September 1925 to April 1928. Beginning in Cowell's House as a somewhat reserved and retiring boy, he blossomed into a powerful young man, whose joy was not books but motor-cycles and farming. He joined the 83rd Light A.A. Battery, R.A., in 1939, and in 1941 the Unit was sent to the Middle East.

GOODMAN.—In April, 1942, at sea, Thomas Dent Good-man, aged 28. (C).

T. D. Goodman (Roll No. 2196), brother of M. R. Goodman, was at St. Edward's from May 1926 to July 1932. He was always remembered as a good-tempered and happy character. In 1939 he joined the 83rd Light A.A. Battery, R.A., but transferred to the 7/4th Mari-time A.A. Regt. for A.A. Guns on Merchant Ships in 1941.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to his Mother in the loss of her two splendid Sons.

ELLIS.—In September, 1942, Captain Victor Francis Ellis, Royal Marines, aged 23. (A).

V. F. Ellis (Roll No. 2815) was at St. Edward's from May 1933 to July 1938. From the first he was an out-standing member of the School, even as a new boy. All he undertook he did well and thoroughly. He repre-sented the School in Squash, Swimming, Diving and Rowing. He rowed in the School VIII at Henley in three successive years, and was Captain of Boats for two years. His work at school was of a high order, and the years in which he was a leading member of a Form which contained some astonishing ability will be long remembered. In personality he was breezy, open and genuinely friendly, never presuming. In the House his vigorous presence was a noticeable feature of life in the glorious days of before the war,' while his resounding energy was always restrained by good sense and con-sideration for others. At Oxford, and then in the Royal Marines, he continued to fulfil his early promise, and success did not spoil him.

In extending to his parents the deepest sympathy in the death of a brave and devoted son, the writer, and many others, are made very conscious of the void created by the loss of one to whom had been revealed the secret of that most difficult of achievements—Friendship.

FLATAU. - In 1942, on active service, Cadet 'Douglas Warren Flatau, R.A.F., aged 19. (G).

D. W. Flatau (Roll No. 3189) was at St. Edward's from 1937 to 1940, and he showed promise of becoming a writer of no mean ability. It is one of the tragedies of total war that a sensitive and artistic boy such as he should be involved in what must have been alien to his nature. Though he was never in action, he offered his lifk as willingly and as surely as any, and has left a proud memory behind hip,.

WAINRIGHT.—In 1942, on active service, L/A.C. Derek William Wainright, R.A.F., aged 21. (E).

D. W. Wainright (Roll No. 3088) was at St. Edward's from 1936 to 1939. He left earlier than most boys, but had already given promise of more than average achieve-ment in most activities. His death is a great loss to his friends who had hoped to see this promise reach maturity.

MATURES. - In November, 1942, Sub-Lieut. (A) John Richard Mathers, R.N.V.R., aged 21. (F).

J. R. Mathers (Roll No. 3060) was at St. Edward's from 1935 to 193. He went to St. Andrew's University on leaving school to prepare for the Ministry. In Febru-

ary '4i he joined the Fleet Air Arm, and got his com-mission in December of that year. He was involved in a flying accident on November 24th, while returning from an operational fighter flight, and died the next day, his 21st birthday.

We have the satisfaction of knowing that he has achieved his ambition of serving his fellow-men, even though it be in a shorter time than he expected.

OGlER—In 1942, Pilot-Officer Michael Owen Ogier, previously reported missing. (E).

M. 0. Ogier (Roll No. 2916) was at St. Edward's from 1934 to 1938. He was in the Lower Science VIth. In school and out, in health and sickness, Michael's cheerful dhposition always prevailed. He believed in being happy and in making others happy. His death on his nineteenth operational flight is a bitter loss to his many friends, and we extend our heartfelt sympathy to his parents and relations.

AWARDS AND DECORATIONS. A/WING-CMDR. G. P. GIBSoN - D.S.O.

The D.S.O. has been awarded to A/Wing-Cmdr. G. P. Gibson, who already holds the D.F.C. and Bar. He has completed many sorties, including a daylight raid on Danzig and an attack on Gdynia. In the recent attack on Le Creusot he bombed and machine-gunned the Transformer Station from 500 feet. On 22nd October he took part in the attack on Genoa, and two days later h.--led

oled his Squadron in a daylight sortie against Milan. On both occasions he flew with great distinction. He is de-scribed in the Award announcement as a most skilful and courageous leader whose keenness has set a most inspiring example.'

LT.-COL. R. N. HARDING-NEWMAN, R.T.R.-M.C.

Lt.-Col. Rupert Norton Harding-Newman, R.T.R., has been awarded the Military Cross. We acted as Brigade Major of 22nd Armoured Brigade Group, which was continuously in action from May 27th to June 14th. Throughout that time he was always calm and clear on the wireless, and unperturbed in spite of having to do most of his work under shell fire. On June ,ith and 12th, near 1-lagrag el RamI, his work was particularly noteworthy, and his steadiness under shell fire was a fine example to the whole Brigade.

A/SQUADRON-LEADER A. WARIIURTON, D.S.O., D.F.C. and Bar —2ND BAR.

A/Squadron-Ldr. A. Warburton, D.S.O., D.F.S., has been given a fourth award for gallantry, that of a second Bar to his D.F.C. This officer has completed many operational sorties, and his work has been of the utmost value. This month his gallantry was well illustrated when he directed an enemy destroyer to a dinghy in which were the crew of one of our aircraft which had been shot down. Although he wa's fired on by the de-stroyer and engaged by Italian aircraft, he remained over the area until he observed that the drifting crew were picked up by the destroyer. Among Squadron-Ldr. Warburton's exploits was a dive to within 30 feet of the decks of an Italian battleship at Taranto to get his pic-tures. Recently he was reported missing, but we are pleased to say that he is now safe. An account of his adventures appears under the General News.

A/SQUADRON-LDR. A. F. CARLISL--D.F.C. The King has approved the award of the Distinguished

Flying Cross to Acting Sqdrn.-Ldr. Anthony Francis Carlisle, No. 107 Squadron. During a low-level attack on Le euwarden Aerodrome, Sqdrn.-Ldr. Carlisle's air-craft was caught in the blast from bombs detonating on the ground. The aircraft was thrown on to its back, extensive damage was caused to its tail, and the rear guns were torn away. Despite the very low altitude of the aeroplane at the time, this officer regained control and returned to his base safely.

Sqdrn.-Ldr. Carlisle has led a formation of aircraft on numerous operational sorties, and has at all times dis-pla)ed the highest courage, determination, and devotion to duty.

Sqjadron-Leader A. Warburton. This officer was missing for a week after taking off on an operation which should have lasted only a few hours. He landed back in Malta with apologies for being late. He ex-plained, says the Air Ministry, that since leaving the island he had been attacked, and his aircraft damaged, by eight or more Me. iog's; landed at Bone in Algeria in the early days of the United States Expeditionary Force and First Army's attacks on French North Africa; been flown to Algiers by a French Admiral; given a lift to Gibraltar in a bomber with a Czecho-Slovakian crew borrowed an aircraft to return to Malta; shot down a Ju.88 on his way home, and flown the equivalent of the length of the Mediterranean.
