CRICKET

lsr XI

Of the seven matches so far played, three have been won, twofavourably drawn and two interestingly lost. For the first time for anumber of years, Kettering Grammar School were convincingly beatenboth at home and away.

Of the seventeen players who played for the lst Xl last year,fourteen were again available, only seven of whom have commandeda regular place. There was, therefore, competition for places and forreasons of future team building as well as the potential ability ofothers, there were a number of changes from the outset, which resultsseem to have justified in terms of batting and bowling figures.

The batting has been more consistent, and the technique morestudious and adventurous than in the previous year. Batsmen whoseemed so very reluctant then to use their feet against bowlers havedone so to advantage this season. It has been a pleasure also to seelater batsmen making runs when the earlier and recognised ones havefailed. Kitson, Leeson and P. G. Tomkins have batted with success,the key of which has been concentration and effort. Improvement ofBarden on last year's form has been very evident and he has done wellas a regular opener.

In bowling, the School has a varied attack, again in contrast toprevious seasons, when only one effective slow bowler merited a place.James and P. G. Tomkins have bowled well and with hostility andhave been commendably supported by P. A. Tompkins, when required.Of the slow bowlers, P. E. Jackson has had the greater opportunitiesbut Perkins as a leg-break bowler, though not sufficiently quick through

/-

the air, has bowled a iength, thereby commanding respect. Barden, inthe capacity of slow left-hander, has not had many chances, though hetook useful v, ' ickets against Bedford N{odern.

The side has been thoughtful iy led by Kitson, who has piaced thefield well and used the bowling to good effect. One ought also toremark upon the keen spir i t pervading the side this year. The prospectsfor the remainder of the season therfore seem good.

2No XI

Despite a most disappointing record the 2nd XI has providedsome of the most exciting cricket of the season. In five of the eightmatches played so far, victory could have gone to either side if onecatch had been held or five minutes more could have been allowed.

Against Kettering, in reply to 65, we were 50 for 4 but the laterbatsmen collapsed; Oundle School won with three balls remaining inthe last over; Bedford Modern Colts, after struggling behind the clockfor nearly the whole of their innings, hit out in desperation in the lastthree overs and also won with three balls remaining; whereas bothKettering (in the return match) and Laxton had an opening batsmanwho batted throughout and shielded his team-mates from the bowlinguntil time had been played out.

However, considering the potential ability of six or seven batsmen,the team should have scored far more runs and scored them muchmore quickly. No batsman has been able to dominate the bowling,

except perhaps for Billing's fine 40 against Bedford Modern. Steven-son, Sauntson, Maher, Green and Coles have all batted steadily buthave lacked the courage to attack the bowling.

Billing has been the spearhead of the attack, despite being no-balled far too frequently and Tilley has also been most effective whenused in short spells. Sauntson, when bowling his slower off-spinners,and Munns, with his improving leg-breaks, have taken several vitalwickets.

The most encouraging feature of the team has been the fielding,the throwing being particularly noteworthy, while Gray on the wholehas kept wicket most commendably.

After a shaky start, Wrenn has improved considerably with hisfield placing and bowling changes and he has proved an invaluable

H:J: the field. while Jones and Perritt have been very reliable

UNonn 15 XIThe Under 15 XI has enjoyed a most successful season, winning

decisively seven of the eight matohes so far played.

The outstanding performance, perhaps, was the victory againstOundle Junior Colts, who were dismissed for only l6 runs, thanks tosome accurate fast bowling by Metcalfe and J. J. Smith. These twohave bowled consistently well throughout the season, and have receivedvaluable support from Martin (off-spinners) and Bellamy (medium-fast), so that opposing batsmen have invariably found run-gettingdifficult.

The batting has also been consistent, with all of the first fivebatsmen scoring valuable runs. Martin, whose technique has set afine example to the rest of his side, has always looked the most polishedbat, but Bonham, Gibson, Mason and Metcalfe have all achievedscores of 40 or more at times when runs were needed. and later bats-men have usually made their fair contribution when called upon. Amost pleasing feature has been the willingness-or rather, the eagerness-to run quick singles.

Fielding has been very keen. Remarkably few catches have beenmissed, and the ground-fielding and throwing have been good. Behindthe stumps, Southward has taken some excellent catches, and allowedvery few byes to pass him.

The shrewd captaincy of Martin has had much to do with theteam's success, but all the players in this XI are to be congratulated ontheir enthusiasm and efficiencv.

UNoEn 14 XIThe team has begun to settle down into a formidable combination.

Defeat in the opening match against Northampton G.S. showed upweaknesses but was useful in that the team benefited from its mistakesin subsequent matches. Bad calling was responsible for the loss of twowickets early in the innings and thereafter little resolution was shownuntil the last wicket pair added 23 runs, thus doubling the score. Sincethis match four good victories have been recorded, the last wicket inthe Kettering G.S. game falling with two balls left.

The bowling has been steady but unfortunately shows little variety:a good slow bowler is badly needed. A noteworthy feat was achievedby A. Cox who took nine wickets for 13 runs against Bedford Modern.

ATHLETICSCaptain.' M. J. Sharman

During the winter, Mason, B. A. Tall and Reading ran cross-country for wellingborough Athletic Club, and in the Northants.

Junior Cross-Country Championship at Finedon on July 2nd. Thefirst two finished equal fourth. N. J. Palmer was meanwhile competingfor Geddington Boys' Club; he was placed first in the Northants.Association of Boys' Clubs Junior Cross-Country Championship, andas a result represented the County in the National Boys' Clubs'Championship at Chingford.

It was found impossible this year, owing to the poor weather, tocomplete Standards before Easter. This meant that only a short timecould be devoted to the remainder at the beginning of the SummerTerm. In spite of this, the total number of Standards gained was thehighest ever. The attendance at hol iday training sessions was dis-appointing, but perhaps the unsatisfactory weather was responsible.

On Sports Day it seemed unlikely that any events would be held.but fortunately the rainy morning gave way to a comparatively fineafternoon, and the programme was completed. Performances weregenerally good, although no records were broken.

In the Northants. County A.A.A. Championships, held at North-ampton on May 21st the following positions were gained : - 100Yards, Junior: 3rd Sharman ; 880 Yards, Juniors: 2nd Mason ; OneMile, Junior: 3rd Mason ; Long Jump, Junior : Znd Sharman ; 880Yards, Youth: lst N. J. Palmer ; One Mile, Youth: 2nd Reading ;High Jump, Youth : Znd A. A. Bayes ; Long Jump, Youth: lst A. A.Bayes 19'5" (a new County Record).

In the Triangular Athletics Match with King's and Deacon'sSchools we were once more successful. The Middle and Junior teamsdeserve congratulation, as the former won five out of six events, andthe latter three out of five. Performances were good, but particularmention must be made of N. I. Palmer who won the Middle 100 Yardsand 220 Yards.

N. J. Palmer and Stanton both secured a 3rd place in the 880Yards and 440 Yards Youths' Scratch respectively in the Open Meetingheld at Duston on June l lth.

We were pleased to see Corby Grammar School taking part in theAthletics match against Kettering and Northampton Grammar Schoolsheld at Ketering on June 14th. Competition as usual was keenthroughout, with Northampton the ultimate winners, due largely totheir all-round superiority. Our boys performed well, but we mustmention in particular: Mason, for his excellent running in the SeniorMile; N. I. Palmer, who won both the Middle 220 Yards and 100Yards; Ball and Bonham, for winning the Middle 440 Yards and 880Yards respectively; and finally Pine, who was the winner of theJunior High Jump.

In conclusion, we should like to thank those who have given upso much time in our behalf.

Since the publication of the Autumn magazine five cups have beenawarded and Dragons have won three of them. D. O. Tal l led theF{ouse to victory in the Music Competit ion, and for the second yearrunning Sharman and the Athletics team carried off the Athletics Cup.After an interval of some years the House has regained possession ofthe Ferguson Trophy. We came second in the Drama and Rugbl'Competitions but hope to do better next year.

The following appointments were made at the House Meeting thisterms : - Captain of Swimming, R. Leslie; Captain of Cricket, N{. J.

At the time of writing the Cricket Competition is well under wayand in this we are doing only moderately well-the Seniors havingdrawn one match and lost one and the Juniors having won their firstand drawn their second. We have a strong Swimming team and arehoping to regain the cup lost to the Stags last year.

Taken as a rvhole, the House has had a very successful year. Toconclude, we offer our best wishes to all Dragons who are taking theirG.C.E. th is term.

Since the publication of the Autumn Term magazine, five competi-tions have been decided, and the Cricket and Swirnming are under way.

Although trying hard to retain our hold on the Cricket Cup, weare not doing as well as hoped, nearly all of our matches so far beingdraws.

We started the year dismally by dropping to fourth place in theRugby competition. The Seniors just saved us from complete disgraceby winning the last match of the three, while the Juniors lost every oneof theirs. We hope this is not an omen for the future.

Despite a good showing in the Music competition, especially fromWilkinson, who gave his usual polished performance, the standard ofother Houses was so high that we were again placed fourth.

However, we gained some consolation by winning the Drama Cupwith "The Police Court", and we congratulate the producer, G. G.Martin, and the cast.

In spite of an exceptionally good performance on Sports Day,lack of standards beforehand caused us to come second in the Athleticscompetition, although we won the Relay Cup handsomely. Specialmention must be made here of the captaiD, A. A. Bayes, and of B.Mason and N. I. Palmer, all of whom ran excellently.

We congratulate J. M. Robertson and R. P. M. Jolley on gainingtheir House Colours.

Although coming last in two competitions, the worst was yet tocome. Whatever hardships we had endured before, we could notwithstand the loss of the Ferguson Trophy, which we had fondly cometo accept as being rightfully ours. we sincerely hope that it willreturn to our ranks once more.

Finally, we send our best wishes to all past Gryphons, and wehope that all who are leaving us will do well in all their future ventures.

LIONS

House Masters. ' Mr. R. V. S. Ward, Mr. J. H. Butler, Mr. J. P. Hyde

Heqd of House: C. E. Garley

School Prelects: C. E. Garley, R. J. Hawkins, M. E. Ridge

House Prefects: R. E. Oberman (Secretary), R. D. Summers

This year began with a triumphal fanfare for the House. At lastwe were able to win the Rugby Cup outright, due to the excellent workof our Junior team and the dogged and inspired resistance of theSeniors. The House also gained the distinction of having one of hermembers, Gray, play in the final Junior English Rugby Trial. Afterthese successes, the Athletics, Music and Drama competitions have alldescended upon us, and have departed leaving the House rather theworse for wear.

In the Music competition, despite the hard work of C. E. Garleyand the unchallenged superiority of our choir, we could not rise abovethird place. Reliable sources, however, blame this defeat, no't upon theinferiority of the Lions, but rather the over-all superiority of two otherHouses.

"The Oak Settle" was our offering for the Drama Cup, and thislittle comedy created great amusement in the audience, but little inthe adjudicator. The character acting of Hawkins warrants praise, butthe final position of the play warrants a quick curtain.

Sub-standard is the only way to describe with any veracity ourperformance in the Athletics competition, for as ever we started wellbelow other Houses in standard points on Sports Day. When standardsare mentioned, every would-be athlete of the House seems to be over-come by a strange temerity and coyness. Nevertheless, Gray and histeam acquitted themselves nobly on the field, and we were finallyplaced third.

Three competitions remain to be decided at the time of writing.In the P.T. competition we are usually quite prominent, but rarelyvictorious, so it is to be hoped that a success here will break our runof defeats. Should there once more be a lack of water in the pool atthis year's Swimming Sports, we may be able to employ our athleticsteam to run the length of the bath, by which means we should at leastimprove our position of past years. The Cricket competition is stillundecided, so it is quite possible for the House to make a supremeeffort and win three cups.

During the year House Colours have been awarded to R. E.Oberman (House Play and Rugby), M. J. Brundell (House Rugby) andM. C. Gray (Rugby and Athletics).

Finally we wish the best oftaking G.C.E. examinations andthis term.

luck to all members of the Houseespecially to those who are leaving

House Prelects :

R. Bedells, C. O. Gil l , G. W. Kearsley, R. J. Warrington.

Since the Autumn publication, several cups have been contestedbut the Stags have, unfortunately, failed to collect even one.

The Senior Rugby team was very weak compared with those ofother Houses. It was soundly de.feated in each of its three matches.The Juniors were more successful, winning two of their matches veryconvincingly. The Stags' final position was third.

In the Music competition the Stags were placed second, verynarrowly losing to the Dragons.

In the Dramatic competition we showed an improvement on lastyear. J. F. Bayes produced our play, and the House was placed third.

The Stags were also placed third in the Ferguson Trophy competi-tion for work in School. The obvious moral to be drawn from this isthat the Stags must work harder !

At the Summer House Meeting, Sauntson and Coles were electedCaptain and Vice-Captain of Cricket, with Freestone and Cox leadingthe Juniors. P.T. Captain and Vice-Captain are Palmer and Jackson;Tye and Harris are leading the Swimming team.

In the Athletics competition the Stags failed miserably, droppingfrom second to fourth place.

This review shows that the Stags are passing through a disappoint-ing period. Neverthe less, we are favourably placed in the Cricketcompetition. We look forward to better days to come. Finally, we wishsuccess to all Stags taking the G.C.E. this term, and we wish all leavershappiness and prosperity in the future.

PARENTS' DAY AND PRIZE - GIVING

June 2nd, 1960

It was a great honour for the School to have as principal guestthis year Lord Birkett, who distributed the prizes and give his name tothe Music Room, which will be known as the Birkett Lecture Theatreafter further building extensions have been completed. In a delightfuladdress, interspersed with humorous anecdotes, Lord Birkett spoke ofSchool life, the heritage of English Literature, Cricket, and-the art ofmaking speeches ! He stressed the importance of integrity, withoutwhich no success in life is worthwhile. The greatest accomplishmentthat any boy could acquire, he thought, was a mastery of English.

An appreciation of words and a valuing of language were pricelessgifts. In these days of television, radio, and technology. the enduringsatisfaction that came from the written word should not be lightly castaway.

In his annual report, the Headmaster said that, although theMinister of Education had deferred the building extensions, the CountyEducation Committee had made such strenuous efforts on our behalfthat the School now headed the list for the 1963 programme. The pastyear had been a successful one. Sixty-seven boys, more than everbefore, had passed Advanced and Scholarship level examinations, 6gaining State scholarships and 43 obtaining County major awards toUniversities. At 'O' level 91 boys had an average of 5+ passes per head.About two-thirds of the Fifth Form now remained to take the advancedcourse in the Sixth Form-a clear indication of parents' support forthe School and of their understanding of the opportunities available.In sport, the School had done quite well, and a very wide range ofoutside activities continued to flourish.

The Chairman of the Governors. Alderman E. A. Steele. presided,and Lord Birkett was thanked by lv[r. W. J. Penn, Chairman of theNorthamptonshire Education Committee, and by the School Captain,G. G. Mart in.

After the Prize-giving, parents saw exhibitions of work andhobbies, and the School lst XI continued their match against an OldBoys' XI, which ended in a draw.

Tea for all visitors was once again provided by the Parents' Com-mittee, to whom we owe sincere thanks for their help in making theoccasion so pleasant.

The 1960 Prize-giving will be memorable not only for the visit ofLord Birkett, but also for the perfect weather which favoured theoccasion. As a concession to the heat, all boys other than prize-winnerswere permitted to discard their blazers.

DRAMATIC SOCIETY" LIFELINE "

In selecting Norman Armstong's play about the Merchant Navyduring World War II, the School Dramatic Society accepted a chal-lenge, for it is a play that bristles with difficulties for amateurs.

Mature acting is required, in order to portray realistically theemotions of men suffering from the strain of life at sea in time ofextreme danger. Stage management, especially on our tiny stage, ismost difficult, and when the set is a merchant ship (at one stage,moreover, a ship on fire !) the problems increase. Sound effects includeship's engines, sirens, and enemy attack by sea and air. It is a greattribute to Dr. Jackson's production, and to the skill of all those whoacted or otherwise assisted, that these difficulties were so triumphantlyovercome. Large audiences throughout the week were obviouslygripped as they watched, and, though at one performance the smokedid become rather stifling, were most enthusiastic in their appreciation.

Perhaps the most acomplished performance was that of J. F.Bayes, as Chief Engineer Jim Lloyd, a dour Scot who loves his enginesand his aspidistra, but first-rate acting also came from D. R. Carringtonas Launder, the I st Officer, who grows in stature as responsibilitiesgrow heavier. This was a restrained, mature interpretation, full ofpromise. R. C. Scott was very convincing as Captain McGrath, astrict disciplinarian, but a warm-hearted, God-fearing man. Other partswere most competently played by I. G. Prior (2nd Officer)-with arealistic Australian accent and a beautiful black eye-R. J. Bradshaw(3rd Officer), G. G. Hodgkins, B. Westcott, D. J. Harris, R. Leslie,P. W. Bratby, and M. W. Stevenson. A pleasing feature was the diction.There were very few words that could not be clearly heard at the backof the hall.

The Stage Manager was Mr. M. S. Cheale, who worked extremelyhard, with his willing assistants from the Railway Club, to provide anexcellent set. So'und effects were ably handled by Mr. J. E. Barker,and Mr. J. W. Huddart was in charge of lighting. The DramaticSociety is also very grateful to Mrs. Cheale, who acted as wardrobemistress, and to Mrs. J. H. Butler, who assisted with make-up.

HOUSE DRAMA COMPETITION

The House Drama Competition was held on Friday, March 25th,the adjudicator being Mr. Alan Brown, of the Northampton RepertoryCompany. He congratul'ated all four Houses on the high standard oftheir performance, and made particular mention of the clear speech.which greatly contributed to his enjoyment of all the plays.

The Houses were placed in the following order of merit :

75 marks70 marks69 marks67 marks

1. Gryphons2. Dragons3. Stags4. Lions

Gryphons. in presenting "The Fol ice Court" (a short excerpt from"1066 and A1l That") accepted the risk of tackling pure farce, andsucceeded admirably in overcoming the attendant difficulties. G. G.Martin's production was excellent, and the pace never flagged. D. S.Wilson, as the judge, gave a most mature performance, his sense oft iming being superb. D. Carrington, as Columbus, M. Palmer, asGuy Fawkes, M. Kitson and B. Westcott as policemen, all contributedclever character studies.

Dragons chose a comedy, "Chantry Farm", and entrusted theproduction to B. L. Vorley, who made good use of the stage, alsosucceeding in maintaining a brisk pace throughout. There were severalentertaining performances, notably from M. Round, as a French artcritic; D. O. Tall, as an unscrupulous dealer; and M. Spriggs, as ayoung maidservant with a soft spot for her employer's son. Minorblemishes were occasional "masking" and "effects" trouble. (That gunwas much too late!).

Stags presented "Mrs. Adis", a more serious play. J. F. Bayesproduced, and also gave a most sensitive performance in the namepart-that of a mother who gives shelter to a fugitive from justice, onlyto find that he has killed her own son. G. Hodgkins, as the fugitive,also did well. It was a pity that the lighting was so dim, and that someof the movement was awkward

Lions staged "The Oak Settle", with R. Oberman producing. Thecomic scenes between Oberman himself and R. Hawkins were first-rate. Their portrayal of a couple of shrewd old country folk makinga prosperous business of selling "antiques" to unsuspecting visitorswas excellent, their posture and diction being most convincing. D.Harris was nicely relaxed as a smart young man-about-town, and P.Needle made a brave attempt to grapple with the most difficult partof all-a young wife. The production suffered from a loss of pace attimes, some of the dialogue becoming rather tedious.

Gryphons, Dragons and Stags performed their plays a secondtime on Monday, March 28th, before a large audience of parents andfriends.

MUSIC NOTES

The Inter-House Music Competition, judged this year by I\{r.Nevi l le Di lkes, Music Master at Corby Grammar School, was won byDragons' House. The standard of performance and choice of pieceswas generally good, although the pianists were inclined to choosepieces which extended them to their utmost limits. The strain of acritical audience invariably impairs the performance. Mention mustbe made of ambitious choice and successful performance of 1heScherzo and Trio from Beethoven's "Trio for Flute, Violin and Viola"by members of Dragons' House. "Real Third Programme stuff", saidthe adjudicator.

The Choir outing was enjoyed by everyone. A coach ful l of Choirmembers and friends sped along the M.l and on to Uxbridge, where,after valiant pathfinding efforts by the driver, we located the OrganBuilding Works of Messrs. J. W. Walker and Son, Ltd. There wewere given a very warm welcome, treated to coffee and biscuits, andshown over the workshops, where our many questions met with readyanswers. The afternoon visit to the Royal Festival Hall was interesting,although the music itself was disappointingly presented. Our returnjourney along the Motorway soon revived our spirits.

Several boys have been working to convert an American Organ,which has been kindly given to us, into a one-rank pipe organ. Thisentails reversing the action of the bellows-they used to suck, and now

l9

blow-and the making of a structure io mount the pipes, which them-selves must be made from laminated paper tubes. If you have any oldcardboard tubes you will not need again, we can use them.

Rehearsals of the joint High School-Grammar School orchestrahave been enjoyed by all attending. Probably the members of theorchestra could say much about rehearsals from their angle. Here aresome of the things the conductor sees and hears. There is the small boyhiding behind a bass drum, and at the other side of the orchestra.someone tangled up in yards of coiled brass tube--called by theknowledgeable 2nd Formers a "French Horn". This latter instrumentusually el ici ts the comment "Cor!" from lst Formers, which perhapspoints to excellent training in Modern Languages. The centre of theorchestra is usually empty, the usual occupants of the space being awayat cricket or examinations. But it is all good fun and we often producequite a good noise. Let us hope we do so more often as the time ofthe Music Recital approaches.

The Senior Choir sang the Anthem "O Lord most high", byGodfrey Sampson, at the Annual Commemoration Service and areworking at "Tubal Cain", by Thomas Dunhill, for performance at theSummer Concert. The Junior Choir is also preparing for this concert,as is the Madrigal Group, which has recently suffered from its oldcomplaint-lateness by several of its lady members. We hope a suitableremedy for this may soon be found.

THE CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP

The Christian Fellowship has continued to hold regular meetingsduring the lunch hour on Wednesdays. The attendance has not alwaysbeen large, but the sessions have been valuable.

There was a series of discussions during the Spring Term on therespective denominational emphases of members of the Fellowship.\Ye also had visits from the Rev. E. Wild. Diocesan Director ofEducation, the Rev. R. F. Robbins, a local Methodist minister, and amember of the London City Mission.

This term, the Fellowship has wrestled with a wide range ofproblems connected with the Faith, ranging from the Christian's useof the Old Testament to the relationship between Science andChristianity. One interesting variation in the programme was aninformal tea meeting, when two students of Ridley Theological College.Cambridge, were open to interrogation about training for the ministry.

We have greatly missed the help and guidance of Mr. C. McCall-who left the School at Easter. We wish him and members of theFellowship leaving this term every success in the future. Boys enteringthe Vth and VIth Forms in September are invited to join and strengthenthe Christian Fellowship.

SCOUTS

"B.P.'s" birthday on 22nd February was celebrated with a partyin which All Hallows' Guides joined. At the end of the Easter Termwe toured the district collecting jobs for 'Bob-a-Job Week'. This washighly successful, and our total was slightly up on our last year'srecord. We raised over f20 and Pine headed our list.

We had nearly a 100% turn-out for our St. George's Day Parade.S. Allen carried our flag.

The Summer Term has seen our usual out-of-doors activities-fireIighting, cooking, bridge building, tracking and wide games. We aregrateful to Mr. Day of Wellingborough Grange for permission to usehis land.

In the Silverwood Cup our troop, led by Bird, was fifth out ofeleven entries. Maybe we shall do better in the Gilbey Cup competitionat Castle Ashby in July.

We were all thrilled to see the Chief Scout at the County Rallyat Althorpe where we spent the Saturday night in camp.

G. Sharp joined the troop this term. The Seniors have kept busy.Holder has acted as Assistant Scouter whilst Mr. Stanley has been offScouting. The Seniors all took their Fireman's badge and we aregrateful to the Wellingborough Brigade Chief Oltcer for his instruc-tion. Dobney and Talbot have done their Thirty Mrle Hike for theHiker's Badge and are working for the Duke of Edinburgh's SilverAward. Some of the Seniors helped at the Guides' County Rally onJune I 1th.

We are going to camp at Drum Hil l (near Derby) 27th July-3rdAugust and hope the weather will be kind.

PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY

We regret that Mr. C. McCall, who has helped the members forsome years, left the Staff at Easter. During the Summer Term Mr.Delmon has been organising the various activities of the Society,although he, too, will be leaving us at the end of the term.

In April, a full programme of events for the term was arranged,which included several excursions to nearby photogenic villages andbuildings, and also included a few indoor activities. The dark roomhas been used a great deal, particularly by First Form boys, who cannow develop and print their own photographs quite satisfactorily.

The School has recently bought & 16"'i"t Cine camera, and filmsare being made of the more important events which take place duringthe School Yoar, such as Open Day, School Excursions, Athletics andSwimming Sports. The first reel of film was taken in black and white,and showed such promise that a colour film is at present being used.

2l

on open Day the boys of the society staged an Exhibit ion oftheir best prints, and the many parents who visited these in theFleming Laboratory were invited to vote upon them. As a result oftheir votes, a photograph by R. p. Nevi l le, IVb., enti t led .,River ofFire" was chosen as the Print of the year.

Finally, on July l3th, most members of the Society will be visitingIvlessrs. Kodak Ltd., and this wil l be fol lowed by a party at the eniof the term.

RAILWAY CLUBPreparations for Parents' Day were carried out by a considerable

number of enthusiastic members and the resulting display, although ithad rather a disconnected appearance, worked very wefi. the modifica-tions to the lay-out which are necessary since the scrapping of the twobaseboards which stood for so long in Room z are progiessing verywell and should be completed during the next School year.

on July l3th about 25 members, having made the journey fromwell ingborough overnight, wi l l visi t motive-power dep6ts at plymouth.Newton Abbot and Exeter.

All boys interested in railways are reminded that rhe Railway Clubprogramme depends upon their suggestions and support. It is thereforevery important that early in the Autumn Term suggestions for visitsduring the coming year should be received and a programme arrangedwhich the majority of members are prepared to support.

D. R. Hill, who leaves this term, has played a leading part in ouractivities for a long time. In particular, he has been an inspiration atour weekly meetings and the design of our lay-out improvements whichare now taking place is largely due to his efforts. we wish him evervsuccess in the future.

NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETYThe Natural History Society resumed its activities after the Easter

holidays with about thirty boys attending the first meeting at Irchesterquarries. In later outings, however, the attendance has averaged 12members-a suitable number for expedit ions.

This term, outings have been made to Ditchford, Irchester, theriver bank between Irthlingborough and wellingborough, Strixton andGrendon lakes; many interesting specimens have been seen andwatched. Perhaps our most rewarding sight was that of a woodpeckerfeeding her young. An interesting activity of the Society has been thetrapping and marking of small mammals in order to study theirmovements.

The Society has also helped in two National surveys. owl pelletswere sent to the Natural History Museum, London, to help study thevariations in bone structure of British small mammals. Every year theSociety has plotted positions of swans' nests in the vicinity of welling-borough to help judge the number of surviving swans in the country.This was continued this year.

All boys interested in any branch of natural history are invited tomeetings as announced at assembly.

STAMP CLUB

After some thought, it was decided to continue with the meetingsagain owing to the ever-increasing number of philatelists in the School.A committee was set up to organise this little community and withinfour weeks the Club had a membership of twenty, with the numbersincreasing nearly every week. I t now has a membership of 38.

The Parents' Association kindly bought us two catalogues, ofwhich we are very proud, and the School album now has a replenishedstock of stamps.

The main event of this year was the Speech Day exhibition. This,owing to feverish work by a dozen or so members rvho disruptedcertain would-be-serious periods, was quite a success, but, as cricketdetains certain members in the summer, i t has been decided to dis-continue our meetings until September.

CHESS CLUB

Most of our support has continued to come from the youngerboys, particularly the First Formers. It is to be hoped that theirinterest will continue as they move up the School and that they will beable to develop their game.

In order to introduce these boys to competitive chess we haveplayed matches against Wellingborough Junior School and Welling-borough Technical School. On both occasions we lost heavi ly but theboys gained valuable experience and we hope for better things nextyear when al l our team members wil l st i l l be under 14.

IV{eetings will be held again next term, once or twice a week, andall boys wil l be welcomed even i f they are only learners.

OLD BOYS' ASSOCIATION

Chairman's Report - Summer, 1960

As usual, the main news concerns our sporting activities and theiVlemorial Sports Field.

The Cricket Club has been elected to Division Two of the CountyLeague for the 196l season. We trust that this news may encouragemany of you to join the Old Grammarians. It certainly shows that theLeague Officials (including F. R. Brown) are satisfied that we now havefacilities for good cricket, so we must produce the fine team to go withthem.

:J

The Rugger Club fielded two teams for the whole of last season.and as some of you know, raised a Youth Fifteen too. To be able tofield three teams indicates our own expanding playing membership.

The Pavilion has been erected, and its ddcor is in the hands of theCricket Club, who continue to cut the field, and hope to lay piped wateron to the field during the summer. The Rugger Club has laid a landdrain to remove flood water which sometimes collects on the first pitch.

We again held a successful Ladies'Night Dance. A recent ventureis a weekly Whist Drive every Friday, which we hope may prove moreworthwhile in the winter months.

It is gratifying to hear of the continued excellent response to the"Pay as you learn" method of paying your O.B.'s subscript ion while atSchool. A strong and active membership is what we require.

It only remains for me, on the Association'sWrenn and the Staff for their assistance, toexaminees, and a happy hol iday to al l .

behalf, to thank Mr.wish success to all

K. J. Honres.

RUGBY CLUB REPORT

The 1959-60 season did not prove as successful as was hoped.Both lst XV and 'A' XV have lacked the necessary thrust in thethreequarter line. The Club, however, did make a great step forwardwhen, for the first time, a Youth XV was fielded.

The full results for the season were :Points

The captains for both lst and 'A' XV's during the season werehookers, Frank Fair for the lst and Graham Brown for the 'A'. Bothplayed well and gave of their best, on and off the field of play. BobGotch skippered the Youth side with marked success. His play isalways strenuous and he has been a fine inspiration to the youngermembers. Gerald Eady was the leading points scorer for the Club.totalling 48 points. He took the kicks for the lst XV and put over4 goals and 12 conversions, to which he added 4 tries: a fine perform-ance for a front row forward.

Bob Bridgeford achieved 30 points with 10 tries scored and itwas ploasing to see schoolboy Robin Leslie total the next highest with28 points. He scored with 4 tries and 8 conversions. Fellow studentMartin Gray followed with 2 tries, 9 conversions, and I goal. DavidReading covered himself with glory in scoring 8 tries.

The Youth XV has proved a great success. This team has beenformed to provide suitable Club Rugby for players up to and includingl8 years of age. The formation of such sides by clubs in the area hasbeen actively sponsored by the East Midland Youth Committee. Manyattractive fixtures with similar Youth teams are available, and the OldBoys' Youth XV acquitted itself admirably during the season.

The team is composed of recent school-leavers and, with the co-operation of the School, many schoolboys have played. Those playersreading this report will agree that many enjoyable fixtures have beenplayed. The Youth XV has been an extremely happy side.

Two of its most memorable victories were the thrashing of theWellingborough Youth XV by 35 points to 6, and the avenging, by30 points to 6, of a previous defeat by the Old Northamptonians' 'B'XV.

The Club committee realises the great value that will arise fromthe playing of the Youth XV in future seasons.

The lst XV vacancies in the seasons ahead will be filled by thepresent members of this team. All prospective school-leavers arewelcome to a game. Club training will start in August each Wednesdayevening and Saturday afternoon, and further details will be availablefrom the undersigned.

UNIVERSITY NEWS

OXFORD

C. BRERETON (Pembroke), is remaining in Oxford for another twoyears for some obscure reason. He is a good man for sizing upthe potentialities of vacant plots near the town centre. He hasproved himself to be generally unreliable by forgetting to attendvarious assignments.

G. ROSE (Wadham). Pleasant and humorous as always, our Geraldslides peacefully into the mire of finals. At one time we thoughthe might get a first, but such things are not discussed in the thirdyear. He plays the guitar, and shares digs with W. W. S.-henceall his inspiration.

D. BROWN (St. Catherine's Society). After finals he is getting married.We wish him 'health and happiness always', as the local papersput it. We shall all willingly drink his health, if we get a chance.Afterwards he will live here and do research.

25

W. W. STEVENSON (St. Peter's Hall), is still a great extrovert, and isbent (not to say broke) on many philanthropic ventures. He is asource of moral(e) for third year people, and is not at all worriedabout finals-yot. After the exams. he will do research, or delivercoal, according to circumstances.

D. T. STEVENS (St. Peter's Hall), is going to be a salesman afterfinals, as this is the quickest method of obtaining a car. He isstill as large as life, and a good Rugby player. He realises thateven during his last few weeks in Oxford he can make newfriends, and so is speaking to other W.G.S. people !

P. R. SMEATHERS (Merton), appears to be cultivating friendshipwith the Head of his College (maybe he is worrying about hisdegree), who allowed him to steer a launch following the Collegeboat. There was no danger to smaller river craft, since the launchwas too decrepit to barge into anything.

D. N. HALL (St. Peter's Hall). Never content with reading one sub-ject, he has taken up Anglo-Saxon. It is difficult to be certain ofhis intentions, but they seem to be directed towards the universalestablishment of the mid-Northamptonshire dialect. Little hasbeen seen of him socially, and he claims to have worked.

J. WYKES (Christ Church). A quiet lad, who has kept himself outof trouble and work. He has passed his German after much effort.When he and many of his friends had failed for the first time.their Tutor said he appreciated that they all had the privilege offailing once, but he did object to their all failing together.

P. A. BIRD (Wadham). First impressions suggest he is innocentenough, but after prolonged association, doubts arise. He hasdone some work on account of pressing exams., but has foundtime to attend many social functions, including taking anAustralian lreunde to the opera.

K. BAILEY (St. Catherine's Society), is going for a short course witha Sheffield steel firm this summer. We hope he will not get involvedthere, as some people have done. Later he and A. J. D. are goingto Austria.

E. J. WOOD (The Queen's), gets no peace, and complains of peopleentering College in the early hours, via his room; he also objectsto K. B. using his bath. One of his methods of avoiding hungryvisitors, is to go away for week-ends to study his biochemicalaspects of life.

A. J. DOYLE (St. Edmund Hall). As a proud owner of a motor-cyclehe has risen in society, and stopped hitch-hiking around here, whichmany of us have been doing. He is building a tape recorder.probably so as to have recordings of the anguished yells of visitorswho experience his judo demonstrations.

J. J. L. KNIGHTON (Balliol), is going to Canada for an indeterminateperiod. He has become a "chap", which does not go down wellwith everyone.

CAMBRIDGE

BRIAN HOLSER (Queens'), f inds Cambridge a bit of a change afterIrthlingborough; hopes to inherit Mr. Painter's post on the spanishSociety's committee, thanks to his ski l l , l inguist ic abi l i ty, andmoney. Attended John Paget Langley's 2lst engagement party at

Irthlingborough Citadel.

ROGER F. MILES. Open Scrr-olar in Natural Sciences at SelwynCollege, has made a name for himself as an Open Scholar inNatural Sciences. His name figures in this year's Residents' List,published by W. Heffer and Sons at 6l-.

DAVID cooPER (St. catharine's), has given up Natural Sciences thisyear. Was Chairman of his College Scientific Society. Contraryto rumour he did not fal l to his death down a ravine near viet-Nam.

DAVID FROST (Caius), divides his time between Scripts andCabarets for the Footlights, T.V. and editing "Granta". Reads"Time and Tide", "Laundry Today", Cereal Packets, and English.

TIM PAINTER (Caius). For Bozeat, now read Grafton Underwood.Has exhausted the possibilities of work, and Mrs. Barbara castle.Was Treasurer of the now bankrupt Spanish Society, and writescheques in his spare time. Attended John Paget Langley's 2lstengagement party at Irthlingborough Citadel.

N,IANCHESTER

OSBORNE. The pressure of finals has meant rhat Colin has beenseen but once this term. However, we hope he has been enjoyinglife and wish him the best of luck.

ALLEN, our 2nd year Accountant, had the honour last term of cap-taining the University Bridge team which defeated Oxford, butnow finds examinations so pressing thaf the discovery of just whatis debit and credit, is even more important than the correct defenceto 'Three No Trumps Doubled'. Such is the value of a Universitycareer !

CLARKE is beginning to wonder whether economics is such a 'splen-did' subject after all. He has obviously seen a particularly un-pleasant film this term; he keeps muttering something about thatso-and-so "Ben FIam". Further activities have been curtailed byhis first attempt at getting off his motor cycle while travelling atmore than 30 m.p.h. !

NOTTINGHAM

All quiet on the Nottingham front these past months. Weeks ofsingers with nervous twitches at the Theatre Royal, and continuousbickering over the plans for the country's first-ever civic theatre haveleft student and citizen bewildered and slightly dispirited. But theyhaven't affected the Nottingham contineent much.

27

MALCOLM THORNEYCROFT, who has been researching yetanother year, is still very much in the post-graduate foreground, andlooks like becoming a permanent piece of furniture if he stays muchlonger.

JOHN SHARMAN remains a familiar figure in the further reachesof the union lounges, and rumour says he was voted "most charmingman of 1960" by the girls of his department.

GRAHAM WEST, BRIAN WHITNEY And JIM WALPOLEfinish their courses this year and are preparing to move on to pasturesnew. They deserve success.

MAX WYMAN has now left the Universitv and is writine a novel.

NEWS OF OLD BOYS

J. W. PENDERED, who spent some time in Finland last year, hassent an interesting account of his experiences. He seems to have beenparticularly impressed by the Finnish "sauna", which he describes asfollows :

"A sauna is a small room or hut about 8 feet square, preferablybuilt by the side of a lake, with a large wood-burning stove in onecorner. The fire is lit, and left for a couple of hours until the roombecomes really hot-and I mean hot; one I went in was at 126"C.You then go and sit high up near the ceiling in the hottest part of theroom. Immediately, you start to sweat, and after abottt five minutesyou wonder why your body has not dried up completely. Worse,horvever, is to come. On top of the stove are some very hot stones,and when water is thrown on these it immediately vapourises, andfi l ls the room with steam. Now dry air aL 126'C. is not too bad, butwet air at this temperature is apt to bring forth cries of "Help !" fromtender English throats. At this point comes the really blood-curdlingpart. You take a bunch of leafy willow switches, and beat the livingdaylights out of yourself with it (to open up the pores, explain theFinns). As I mentioned before, it is desirable to have the sauna bythe side of a lake so that, having been boiled, one can run straightoutside and dive into the ice-cold water. In the winter, moreover, theFinns roll in the snow after taking a sauna ! This may sound arather drastic way of keeping clean, but from personal experience I canpromise that i t is a most invigorating sensation."
