NOVEMBER, 1940.
1940
IS MAJESTY the King gave expression to one of the most important
movements of the day when he spoke
of stretching forth a hand in the darkness, and putting our hand into the hand
of God.
But is this putting our hand into the
hand of God just a war emergency measure? Should not our hand have been in
God's hand all along, if we now expect
Him to aid us?
It is not surprising, therefore, that many
who have lost contact with the Christian
tradition regard this change of face as
insincere and hypocritical.
The Australian periodical, "The Rationalist," in its September issue, displayed a mocking heading, "Catholic Eu-
H
rope Prays for Peace," followed by a
mocking picture of a Catholic Austria, a
Catholic Poland, and a Catholic France
on their knees, spurned by a Christ who
is not.
But did Christ promise to give victory in the battles of this world? The
only Christian politics, Christopher Dawson has said, are the politics of the next
world. And the only Christian battles are
the battles for the next world. In any
case, is this picture of Catholicity slighted
a true picture ? If we take France as cur
test-case, Freemasonry and Communism
were the strongest pre-war forces. Was
it a Catholic nation whose Prime Minister, in urgent council at the greatest hour
of trial, saw his mistress rush unheralded
into the council chamber, imploring peace
4
NEWMAN
for the women of France? Did the nation
deserve to be saved which spurned, until
too late, its Petain and its Weygand, men
capable of saving it, just as it spurned its
God until it was almost under the heel of
its foes, and then, too late, demanded a
miracle ?
It is this that "The Rationalist " might
justly have mocked at. It is this which
makes many regard religion as outworn,
disillusioned, and at present useless ; and
there are many signs that even this decade may see dire trials for all who adhere to an eschatological view of life.
Let us remember that, if our own little
drama has been segregated from events
overseas and local reactions, it is nevertheless determined in the long run by
them. The contrast breeds not reflection
alone, but increased pleasure in recollecting our College functions during 1940.
The First Term Dance, held in the Dining Hall on Athletics Night, was the usual
success. We are indebted to Des. Moloney
and Paul Rowan for the capable organisation.
The traditional At Home was not held
this year. We had in its place a special
dance in College, which could not have
been more enjoyable. The number of
dancers far exceeded what the years have
made us accustomed to, and the extra organisation, including the engagement of a
larger orchestra, was very capably carried
out by Adrian Jones and Jim Feehan.
The expenses for this function were
smaller than for the usual Earl's Court
function ; and, as the subscription was not
reduced, the Club is donating the proceeds
to the Catholic Welfare Organisation's appeal.
In Second Term we also had a most
enjoyable Open Night.
Early examinations made it inadvisable
to hold a College dance in third term, and
in its place we were permitted to hold
another Open Night, from which we may
draw two inferences : that Open Nights
do not appeal to men about to do examinations, and that mid-week Open Nights do
not appeal to anybody.
The Sports Dinner, although it could
have been better attended, was most enjoyable. Speakers gave expression to the
usual hopes for "next year." As at all the
Club's social functions, the Matron merits
our thanks for her assistance and cooperation.
The Golf Tournament, arranged by
Tom Ahern and Mervyn Barrett, was proclaimed by many to be the best function
of the year. All who were at Commonwealth, both past and present, enjoyed
themselves thoroughly.
*
*
At the Valete dinner, on Wednesday,
2nd October, Newman bade farewell to
the following men, who are sitting for
their Final examinations this year :—
DENTISTRY.
J. Ma. Seward (1936-'40) always
played a conspicuous part in College rowing, being a member of the Rowing Committee for several years. During his
course he took a number of Honours, and,
in his Final examinations, in August, won
second place in his year.
W. P. Shea (1936-'40) has always
been one of the most painstaking students
at the Dental Hospital. He has been a
member of the XVIII. every year since
he came into College, and this year was
elected to the General Committee. We
congratulate him on passing his Final examination in October.
LAW.
D. McK. McHarg (1937-'40) has been
noted for canny intelligence since his
Freshman days, and his shrewdness at
TH ECHAP EL TO- DAY
e hnn, p ho to
5
NEWMAN
examinations (a number of Honours are
scattered through his record) has often
astounded us. During Terms Two and
Three he has been First Lord of our
Treasury.
P. J. O'Donohue (1936-'40) leaves us
after five years of conscientious work and
of reliable service to the Club. He has
been Captain of the tennis team and a pillar of the 2nd XVIII.
MEDICINE.
P. H. Cody (1935-'40) has successfully
reconciled the demands on the social
roundsman with the requirements of University examiners. Organising Secretary
of the At Home for a number of years,
he was elevated this year to the Presidency of the Students' Club.
D. I. Dowling (1935-'40) has had a
comfortable passage through his course,
picking up a University blue for cricket on
the way. The spearhead of our attack
for a number of years, he has also dabbled
in the 2nd XVIII. pantomime, and represented the University at baseball. A
member of the General Committee, 1940.
P. W. Marshall (1935-'40) is one of
the best-liked men in College, but frequently leaves us for week-end or week
vacations at home. For a number of
years he was one of our leading oarsmen.
P. M. Moore (1935-'40) has led a retired life in College, but is always the unspotted model • of sartorial perfection. A
keen golfer, and in many ways the prototype of all that is best in College life.
G. Mulvany (1935 - '40) has settled
down during the last few years to a life
of Olympian quiet and detachment. Sometime sprinter, he was a leading member
of champion XVIII.'s of 1935-7, and re-
vealed his old form in this year's final
against Ormond.
C. W. A. J. Schlink (1935-'40) is the
answer to the biographer's prayer. Suffice
it to say, in borrowed phrases, that he has
ever been a prolific burner of midnight
oil, and, in current revels, always a leading participant.
J. H. Smith (1935-'40), following hard
in Doctor Bill's footsteps, has always been
keenly interested in rowing, and in 1938
coxed the crew. A keen golfer in his
leisure moments, and a gifted footballer
who should have gone further than the
2nd XVIII. A member of the General
Committee during 1940.
*
*
The latter half of the year was darkened for us by the absence of the Rector,
who entered Mt. St. Evin's Hospital in
July for a serious operation. We are delighted to say that his recovery, although
slow, has been very sound. He has now
left hospital, and we eagerly look forward
to the time when lie is back with us.
The Dean (Father Johnston) has been
in charge during his absence, and the Club
wishes to thank him for his constant assistance.
To Father Kelly we extend sincere condolence on the death of his brother in
Ireland, and on the deaths of his nephews,
R.I.P.
To celebrate Father Kelly's Golden
Jubilee (on the occasion of his being fifty
years a Jesuit) a Dinner was held on
September 6th. Many distinguished members of the Society of Jesus, including the
Provincial, were present, and the President of the Students' Club made a small
presentation. Once again we congratulate
Father Kelly, and add the fervent desire
that he will be with us for many more
years.

Fr. Albert Power, S.J., a former Rector
of the College, was with us for a short
time in second term, while engaged in the
study of recent archaeological discoveries
and their effects upon the Bible.
We offer our sincere sympathy to Mr.
P. F. O'Collins, a member of the College
Council, and to Dr. J. B. O'Collins, on
the death of their father ; also to Dr. A. L.
Kenny, Secretary to the College Council,
whose wife died during the year.
The new Chapel has been looming ever
larger before us with the passage of the
months. The walls reached their apogee,
the tiled roof was put in place, the walls
were processed, and, finally, the scaffolding came down. Work is now going on
within, and we look forward to its completion. We hear from Mt. St. Evin's
that the Rector dreamed of nothing else
for three months.
The Chapel was the scene of two colourful wedding ceremonies during the
year, and it is our pleasure to congratulate the two Old Newmanians concerned.
On May 16th, Mr. Fitzgerald James
(1924-1928) was married to Miss Elsie
Plummer. The Rector was the celebrant,
and a recent Old Boy, Mr. Maurice
Clarke, acted as best man. On August
3rd the wedding of Dr. Ray Gurry (193237, see "Taboos," under "Ping") to Miss
Eileen Galbally, was celebrated by the
Rev. J. McNamara. of Brunswick.

The Otagazine
In last year's magazine notice was given
of a proposed amendment to the constitution of the club with respect to the magazine. As a result of representations from
a number of Old Boys, mainly inter-State,
it was decided to postpone for the time
being the moving of the section of the
proposed amendment which dealt with the
omission of the Old Boys' notes from the
magazine.
All Old Newmanians who desire to see
the notes retained in their present form
are invited to co-operate with the Editors
by forwarding to them (or to the Rector) items of interest concerning themselves and their friends.
The Editors record their thanks to the
amateur photographers in College who
submitted so many interesting negatives
and prints, especially George Morrison,
John Reen, Frank Moore and Jim Feehan.

albett Powet, Debatik9
The decline and fall of debating in the
last five or six years has been unanimously
attributed in these annals to lack of enthusiasm on the part of "The College," or, more
precisely, of everybody in College apart
from the Debating Committee and the Debating Team.
But this year "The College" turned
round and sought to place the blame on
everybody in College except "The College"
—that is, on the three or four individuals
comprising the Committee and the Team.
Debating has failed, they argued, because
its practice has been restricted to a few high
priests ; but once initiate the mob into the
sacred ceremonies, once break down the
barriers surrounding the esoteric art, and
all will be well.
These demands were freely expressed at
the Annual - Meeting - cum - Freshmen'sDebate. After a stormy session, the Elect
managed to retain power, Mr. Billings
being voted (in absentia) to the Presidency.
The ensuing debate revealed the usual lack
of talent among Freshmen, although most
of them did try hard.
Later in first term, "That Europe is really
decadent" was discussed. The line-up was
McHarg-Westmore v. Billings-Galbally.
After a number of mediocre speeches, "The
College" suggested that the Committee
might do well to choose more interesting
subjects.
And so the Committee decided once and
for all to take dialectic from the Senate
house and plant it in the market place. An
ocietti
evening of impromptu addresses was
accordingly arranged, and the subjects
selected were topical ones, such as "That
this College should adopt refugee children,"
with a few flippant ones thrown in. But not
only did "The College," in lazy posture,
loudly declare its disapproval of the proceedings ; the speakers, almost without exception, attempted to conceal their lack of
eloquence and intelligence by dissertations
on the Committee's disgraceful inability to
choose reason subjects.
Other debates were arranged, but not
staged, and so terminated an amusing but
inglorious year for the Society.
*
*
*
In the inter-collegiate series we met
Trinity in the first round. Our representatives were Messrs. McHarg (leader), Westmore, and Batten, and the subject, "That
Nationalism is the curse of the m , )dern
world."
While listening to one of Gladstone's
Budget speeches, Disraeli put his head into
his hands, uttered the one word, "Dull,"
and slept. I fear to think what he might
have said and done had he been present at
this debate. It entirely lacked colour. Two
members of "The College" followed the
Team across to Trinity.
The Committee decided to make no recommendation for the award of the Rector's
Medal, the Improvement Prize, and the
Freshers' Prize for 1940.

its history, in every
part of the globe, the University has
T HROUGHOUT
sheltered in its cloisters and nourished
in its schools the most complex array of the
spirits of the ages it has served. Socrates,
though he gave no degrees nor diplomas,
founded an embryonic version, a prototype
of the mediaeval University. He paid the
supreme sacrifice for his ideals and for his
institution, abstract as its form may have
been, and the charge was one of corruption
of the youth. His disciples appeared in the
eyes of the layman—Aristophanes has testified to it—as men of strange eccentric ways.
Logic and the "thinking-shop" had imbued
them with a spirit and temperament not
common to all men ; wherefore the Athenian
public mistrusted and feared them. In the
Oxford of Wycliffe and Grossetete, many
hundreds of years later, the same restless
spirit and unorthodox way of life prevailed.
Men gathered in taverns to swill their ale,
to argue and counter-argue, to sing their
"goliardic" verses. The University was the
home of every heresy, of Lollardry and
Arminianism, of Deism and Puritanism.
Within its hallowed walls, beneath its ivycovered arches, there was room for every
sect, for every heretic. In the shadow of its
spires, in the precincts of its colleges, there
took root and strength every shade of belief,
every theory of logic.
How far does the University of to-day
differ in this respect ? Undergraduates still
debate and discuss the future of the world,
still they cling to their ideologies. There
are still those who, with their own vague
idiosyncrasies, would discuss the proverbial
question of the angels and the point of a
needle. Even in our own University Catholics and heretics, followers of Bacchus and
disciples of Christ, still mingle. We grant,
with perhaps undue euphemism, that they
are all seekers of knowledge, all driving
ahead in the quest for complete learning,
omniscience. We have passed many milestones ; we shall pass many more. But
there may come a time when a privileged
few can learn no more from text-books and
professors. They will have reached the end
of the made road, but not their goal. Then
will be the time for that few, that very few,
to take the tools of erudition, clear the
chaotic wilderness ahead, and thrust mankind one step further on the road to his goal.
Is this, then, the driving force, the latent
power that stimulates the University undergraduate? Is his vision fixed on some distant, ever-receding, yet ever-growing ideal ?
Would that it were! Then his boisterousness, his unorthodoxy, his lack of tact and
feeling, his arrogance, his pride, all his
eccentricities could be forgiven. His would
be an aim, an ideal not to be thwarted or
impeded by convention or custom.
But is the modern University, after all,
nothing more than a shop, a factory for
scientists, medicos, lawyers, and the rest?
Has the specialisation of the modern world
and the emphasis it lays on income and
social status plunged its lecherous tentacles
into the heart of culture and learning? If
such is the case, then truly the community
as a whole owes little debt to its habitues.
The student who has as his aim a degree
or diploma, which he regards merely as an
instrument, in truth a very necessary in-.
strument, to be used only as a magnet for
silver and gold, is, indeed, worthy of contempt. The physician who looks upon his
stethoscope as a collector of fees, an excuse
for a future account, is not worthy of the
name. Should that student indulge in and
enjoy the privileges of an academic society,
then he commits a crime tantamount to
sacrilege ; he is taking what is not rightly his
to take ; he is treading on ground, approach
and admittance to which he has not earned.
The aged Spirit of Learning and Wisdom
has trod many a distant land, many a weary

century ; the vicissitudes she has experienced
have been as varied as they have been
numerous, as colourful as they have been
drab ; blissfully ignorant of nationality, of
colour, and of creed, she has known glorious
voice at Louvain, Paris, and Oxford in such
centuries as the sixteenth, while in others
she has been relegated to remote and
hidden corners of the earth, forgotten and
unknown in the outside world. It is she
who can estimate our worth—she who has
numbered among her proteges Socrates
and Aristotle, Augustine and Aquinas,
Wycliffe and Erasmus, and, in less distant
days, Newman, Pasteur and Lister. How,
then, is she to judge us? Will the first
half of the twentieth century appear in the
eyes of future generations as a period of
intellectual and academic sterility? Will
our only claim to attention (and that a
dubious one) lie in our mechanical progress,
in our ability to add figures, to make cogwheels, to destroy one another, and to cheat
the laws of gravitation ? Is the history of
our age to be drawn on blueprints, rather
than written in treatises?
It is for the university student to make or
mar the destiny of his age in this respect.
The University is very literally the heart
of the intellectual world. By its throb and
through its arteries must flow the lifegiving blood of learning and culture, if
civilisation is not to become stagnant and
barren. Such a spirit of vivification cannot
be generated by a body of young men and
women intoxicated by the false tradition of
unbounded freedom and licence, so popularly
ascribed to the undergraduate.
The would-be professional man may not
excuse himself by the plea that his duty to
the community is clearly defined and
bounded within the sphere of litigation or
hygiene. The undergraduate has been
given opportunities to avail himself of
privileges of scholastic culture and learning,
propter quod he has been burdened with
other duties, other stewardships, an account
of which he must one day render. How
unhappy, then, is the lot of the graduate
who on his day of graduation takes with
him nothing but a knowledge of how he
should build bridges, draw teeth, and the
rest, and who, nevertheless, has spent his
leisure moments enjoying privileges and prerogatives which, if indulged in elsewhere,
would surely have been met with the
sternest censure.
The ship of erudition moves on. In the
dim and distant past her keel was laid.
During countless ages, knowledge of which
has been denied us, she was fitted and
launched, her plates riveted, and her sails
filled. She has known the fury of the
Atlantic, the peaceful serenity of the Mediterranean, the tragedy of the Sargossa. Buffeted by the winds of humanity, billowing
to the swell of his progress, her sails have
sought many a port in search of haven and
rest. And now—her once vibrant sails in
shreds, her erstwhile beauty faded—what
is her destiny? In very truth we may ask
in wonder and dismay—Quo vadis?

El eaallo
T N the spring of 1936 the standard of
I revolt fluttered over Spain, lying
stricken in the agony of bitter political
strife, her lifeless form enmeshed in the
poisonous coils of Continental Freemasonry,
her very life blood drained by the Marxist
leeches. The course of Spanish history had
changed. From the channels which led to
the morass of economic and political vassalage to Russia, an instrument for the acquisition of pacts with the Great Powers,
General Franco has drawn Spain to give her
the promise of a glorious future. Who is
this man providentially sent to lift his
country from the gloom of despair? Has
he risen to the highest position in the State
as the result of his own genius, or is his
movement but the crest of a wave which has
temporarily inundated Spain, while beneath
lie turmoil and distress? This question
should puzzle no one.
Francisco Franco Baamonde was born on
December 4, 1892, in a little white-walled
cottage close by the Church of the Sacred
Heart at El Ferrol, the son of Nicolas
Franco, a naval paymaster, and his wife,
Pilar Baamonde. Of the five children, Francisco is now "Caudillo" of the Spanish State;
Ramon won world renown as an aviator
in 1926 on his triumphal flight to Spanish
America, but later on was killed in the
Civil War ; and the eldest son, Nicolas, is
now Franco's confidential adviser. In
accordance with the tradition of the family
Francisco entered the Naval College, but
further studies in this direction were cut
short by the policy of an indigent Government, which closed the school. Entering
Toledo Military Academy in 1907, he graduated a second lieutenant three years later.
Though of tender years, the spirit of adventure incited his ambition to taste the hazards
of real warfare, and he volunteered for
service in North Morocco, at that time a
wearisome and costly burden for any nation.
General Berenguer was organising the Regulars, a unit composed entirely of Moorish
troops—later to receive the venom of world
critics. Franco enlisted. From this moment
onward his military career soared like a
comet in a shower of brilliance, casting a
golden lustre over the path of his fortunes,
emblazoning his name in letters of blood and
gold. Did he dream, then, that one day his
name would strike pride and terror alike
into the stout hearts of the Moors, would
become a legend greater than that which
encircled like a golden aureole El Mizzian
himself ? His fortunes were inextricably
linked with the destiny of Spain, and, indeed,
it was his genius which guided his country
to a successful conclusion of the war.
Through valour in action the young Franco
was promoted to the rank of Captain in his
twentieth year. In 1916 a bullet pierced
his abdomen and his life lay in danger. He
recovered to learn his youth was an obstacle
to further promotion. To assuage his disappointment, an ill-spirited Government
awarded him the Cross of Maria Christina,
but on appeal to the King he was assigned
to the Regiment at Oviedo, holding the rank
of Major.
The one-eyed, one-armed Jose Millan
Astray was appointed by the Madrid Government in 1920 to the task of creating the
Foreign Legion. The veteran soldier solicited the services of Franco to aid him.
This was the training finally to mould
Franco's character, to develop those qualities
of superb leadership, matchless courage and
resolute determination soon to mark him out
as a fearless soldier, a man to command not
a battalion, but a nation. How often did his
men realise, as a few of us do, the import of
Foch's words : "It is, above all, the action
NEWMAN
of the Commanding Officer that creates
victory." In the hands of Franco the
metamorphosis of the Legionnaire took
place. Out of a conglomeration of adventurous foreigners, restless Spaniards roving
the earth for a chance to flirt with death—
from these raw products of Nature's miscarriages Franco brought forth a band of
soldiers, skilled, rugged, and fearless, from
whose lips in death would issue the cry—
Viva muerte%
At the age of thirty Franco was Commander-in-Chief of the Foreign Legion.
Already his name was famous. When discussing his latest appointment, the King
remarked : "There is no one who surpasses
him ; it must be Franco." His next exploit
was concerned in the landing at Alhucemas,
an event of European importance ; here he
fought with Varela and Goded under the
supreme command of General Sanjurjo, all
three of whom were later concerned in the
rising. Through merit of war, Franco was
raised to the rank of General in 1926, the
youngest in Europe, and awarded his second
military medal, the Naval and Military
Merit of France (0 irony of history !) and
made a Knight Commander of the Legion
of Honour. Marshal Lyautey, the great
French colonial administrator, had said :
"Franco and Graziani (the conqueror of
Abyssinia) are the two outstanding generals
of our time."
We have come to the close of his career
in Morocco. Unscathed, he returns to
Spain. In his own words, "Death has
passed me many times but happily has never
recognised me." In addition to purely military exploits, in 1922 he had published a
book on the Legion, and, a year later, had
been married to one Carmen Polo, the
daughter of a wealthy Asturian. Their
marriage in the Church of San Juan, in
Oviedo, was the culmination of a romance
of tender youth. Indeed, their love had
persevered through distance, through long
absences, through the vicissitudes of a
soldier's life, to gain expression in a union
which shed a golden ray of sunlight on the
treasure of memories which is the greatest
15
gift of life. One daughter, Carmencita, was
born of the marriage. Recently Franco has
adopted a son.
We now follow the star of his fortunes
as it traverses the well-ordered firmament
of a military dictatorship to shine in the
gloomy chaotic firmament of the Republic,
in a process of rapid disruption. One of the
most laudable acts of the benevolent de
Riviera's regime was to restore the Military
Academy at Saragoza in 1928. The work
as director was entrusted to Franco, who,
with lightning rapidity, raised it to a position
of esteem in Europe. It won the admiration
of Maginot himself. At this time the young
general was also associated with Marshal
Petain, who, like his former pupil, now
basks in the spotlight of hatred and scorn
focussed by an opprobrious world press.
The story of Spain after the establishment
of the Republic in 1931, with which Franco
showed no "anterior complaisance," is
traced in letters of blood. In the ensuing
five years passions were unleashed with all
the fury of a barbarous age. The atavistic
savagery of the Spaniard, his individualism
and intense desire for freedom, were flaming
faggots on the pyre of revolution. Throughout the dark period, nevertheless, the soul of
Spain shone bright, though her body was
prostrate, livid and panting, exhausting her
energy in seeking to free herself from the
Masonic and Red-revolutionary elements
that were strangling her in her agony. The
story of her martyrs has yet to be written.
We recognise, however, the spirit which
animated both civic and religious martyrs in
the words of St. Dominic of Silos to a Castilian king, quoted in the last speech of Calvo
Sotelo to the Cortes : "My lord, you can take
my life, but you can do no more ! I would
rather die gloriously than live in dishonour."
Franco had been banished to the Canary
Islands as Military Governor. His words
to President Zamora ;befdre leaving are
pertinent : "One thing I am sure of, and
which I can answer truthfully, is that whatever the contingencies that may arise,
wherever I am, there will be no Communism." Political passions were now
16
NEW MAN
fanned to white heat. The liberty that is
the spiritual patrimony of every Spaniard
was suppressed. Madrid suffered the Terror
of French Revolutionary days—policed by
armed Marxist gangs. Then Sotelo was
murdered.
The ultimate revolt, headed by Franco
and his able band of generals, his flight to
Morocco, the flaring-up of revolution all
over Spain, the victorious march to the
gates of Madrid, only to be diverted to relieve the heroes of the Alcazar—this cost
Franco Madrid—all these events are fresh
in our memory. Suffice it that, after three
and a half years of intermittent warfare,
with brutalities unfortunately present on
both sides, peace came as rapidly as had war.
The second stage of Franco's work had
begun. His handsome, careworn face looked
out over Spain and confronted a scene of
desolation. From the freshly liberated territories came desperate appeals for food. The
spectre of death stalked the land, and laid its
clammy hand on the hungry and cheerless
orphans of war. The civilisation that boasted
a thousand architectural gems was a
shambles. The greatest monument of all—
the Alcazar—was in ruins ; the immortal
works of Goya and Velasquez were in Geneva; the gold deposit of the Spanish Government had been transferred to the Soviet,
with 48,000 tons of mercantile shipping. Yet
confidence in his country's resilience stirred
Franco to action. "There shall not be a
home without food or a hearth without fuel."
Firstly, to disembarrass Spain of her army
of unemployed, ex-servicemen brusquely
thrust back into civil life. The Minister of
Justice in the Valencian Government had
offered a solution : "The Spanish working
men receive wages which exceed their requirements. By reducing their wages, a
correspondingly greater number of men can
be employed." Ingenious ! And this from
a "Workers' Government." Franco's solution was other. Indications now point to the
adoption of a "corporatistne d'association"
as a form of government, which must be
a spontaneous growth, not a superstructural
imposition. The new Spain will be hierarchical and corporative, aiming not at the
enslavement of the proletariat, but at the
disappearance of that "vast homeless mass"
by incorporation into various separate activities, in which they will have a share of
control. The workers must take part in
collective benefits, must be safeguarded from
exploitation by unions, receive a living
wage, and possess decent housing conditions and reasonable security against accidents.
Furthermore, Franco is confronted by
problems endemic to his country. Regionalism is a pressing question, sadly mishandled
by propagandists who have been all too
eager to confuse separatism and regional
autonomy. The attitude of the Generalissimo is defined by his appeal to the Basques :
"We will leave you free to exploit your
properties by grace of the decentralising
action of the new State, which will respect
your traditions and your communal franchises, and apply effective and rapid
measures of social justice." This question
and others will be resolved when the true
feelings of the people have been gauged.
From the strife and turmoil of civil war,
from an agony more terrible than the
Moorish invasion, Franco has led his
country to a glorious nationhood. Behold
the Spain that once stood paramount
amongst the nations of the world, draped
once more in the brilliant cloak of her
ancient glory. See the Caudillo, his countenance set with grim determination as a
mad world reels and totters about him. Who
can doubt for a moment that counsels of
wisdom and sanity will guide the destinies
of the Spanish nation in this hour of
darkness ?

SPORT
HE result of our sporting activities
this year would seem to afford further proof that Newman cannot
combine athletic supremacy with our
newly-won prowess in the academic
sphere. Our efforts, it is true, were rewarded with a greater measure of success than last year, but the sum total of
our winnings is insignificant when compared with the great victories of the past.
In some respects, however, we have reason to face the future with confidence. A
healthy interest seems at last to have been
stimulated in rowing, largely due to an
influx of freshmen with rowing experience, four of whom rowed in the crew;
our young and evenly-balanced athletic
team seems likely to retain the Cato
Shield for some years to come, if its personnel remains intact. Our defeat of
Queen's in the first heat of the rowing
marked our first entry into the final since
1924, and was welcomed heartily, not only
in Newman, but in all collegiate circles,
for the continual sight of Ormond and
Trinity contesting the final, has become
rather wearisome. Our effort against
Trinity was a spirited one, but we were
unfortunate in meeting a crew which contained several inter-Varsity oarsmen. The
seconds had a great win over Queen's in
their heat, under the capable stroking of
Mr. D. Pitt, but found Ormond too
strong in the final. Still it was encouraging to see both Newman crews competing on the second day.
The XI. provided us with perhaps the
greatest disappointment of the year. On
paper our team looked the equal of any
Inter-Collegiate combination, and even
though their performance was definitely
below their capabilities, the innings defeat
was the worst and most crushing blow to
our cricketing prestige for at least the last
decade.
T
Football provided us with triumph and
disaster. Resolved to wipe out last year's
defeat and reclaim its captured standards,
the Newman XVIII. trained much harder
and more consistently than was the case
last year, and reaped its reward in a
dashing win over the formidable and confident Trinity team. When we met Ormond a week later, however, nothing
seemed to go right, and we had to admit
to another humiliating defeat. The edge
was taken out of the sting by the fighting display of shock tactics by the second
XVIII., who emerged from t heir two
matches victorious and generally unscathed.
The greatest triumph of the year was
in the athletics, in which Newman defeated Ormond by 71 points, with a surprisingly strong team from Queen's close
up, third.
The tennis, unfortunately, as usual, was
a fiasco on our part, for after a promising start, we faded out altogether in our
match with Queen's. Some measure of
atonement was granted us when our
hockey enthusiasts hustled their way to
another premiership, under the watchful
tutelage of Messrs. Connaughton and
Ahern. So far we have proved invincible
on the hockey field ; there is no reason
why this success should not be shared
by our other teams also. There is this
in our favour. Most of our old champions have passed to other spheres, and
this is apparently the period of recruiting
and experiment. But we have others
worthy to receive their mantle—this year
produced a particularly good harvest of
juniors—and time and experience soon
should mould the teams together into excellent combinations.

CRICKET
Innings Defeat
back, I find that this year
we were in a similar position to that
of 1933, when after the first defeat
in six years, we were attempting to
regain the Inter-Collegiate cricket championship.
But, unfortunately, I cannot say we
tackled this with the same spirit and determination, for in that year practice
started in third term, 1932. This keenness was reflected in the overwhelming
Newman victories in 1933.
And until our men realise that assiduous practice is essential, and that they
must start cricket in third term, we will
continue to fail miserably, as we have
done this year.
L
NEWMAN VERSUS ORMOND.
Newman won the toss and batted on
an easy wicket. Westmore and Billings
opened, and Westmore was out to Steele
in the first over. Hardly had we had
time to recover from this early setback,
before eight wickets were down for 16
runs. While our poor batting was
largely responsible, credit must be given
to Ray Steele and Thompson for their
very fine, sustained bowling effort.
A complete debacle was prevented by
Dowling and Ahern, who added 32 runs
before being separated.
And Newman was all out for 50 before lunch ! !
Ormond were away to a good start ; on
Wednesday Hewson and Gaunt helped
to take the total to 299 before Ormond
was dismissed. Billings (four wickets)
and Williams (three) bowled well, but
the Newman fielding was atrocious, no
fewer than five catches being missed on
Tuesday.
Faced with a deficit of 240, Newman
started its second innings before lunch,
but, apart from a very bright and deter-
mined knock by Westmore (73), it
was out for 174 before stumps. The
other batsmen performed much more
creditably than in the first innings. Steele,
Thompson and Brand again bowled well.
Congratulations to Ormond on its
fine win, and also on retaining the cup.
They were a much better balanced team.

ROWING
Both Crews in Finals
EAR after year Newman have looked
forward to the day when their representatives would be successful
on the river. 1939 saw that day brought
very close. Despite the loss of some of
our old stalwarts, the year opened promisingly with an unusually large number
of oarsmen among the freshmen.
We had asked Mr. J. Mulcahy to coach
us this year, but he found that he was
unable to carry on. Therefore, we had
to look around for a coach, and we were
very lucky to find Mr. G. K. Duane, who
is a former Newman and University coxswain. Mr. Duane took on the unenviable
task of preparing our crew in three weeks,
and to his unbounded enthusiasm and
energy the success which we did achieve
is due.
The crew which was finally picked to
represent Newman was a heavy combination, but it combined to an admirable degree sturdiness and dash. The seatings
were :J. McC. Seward (bow), list.
J. G. Feehan, 10st. 101bs.
E. C. Fogarty, 13st. 4lbs.
J. D. Watson, 12st. 8lbs.
C. E. Nulsen, list. 101bs.
J. J. O'Brien, 13st. 5lbs.
E. A. Andre, 12st. 5lbs.
J. J. Bourke (str.), 12st. 2lbs.
L. F. Scullion (cox) , 8st. 131bs.
Y
The races this year were once again
held on the 11 mile course, finishing at
the Henley finish.
Newman met Queen's in the first heat.
The day was perfect for rowing, and
the crews, after some delay at the start,
lined up and were sent away to a rather
poor start. Newman quickly got into its
swing, and, by the new bridge, had forged
a few feet ahead. Queen's, a lighter crew,
was not able to match Newman's length
and drive, and began to fall back, so that,
by the Morell bridge, Newman led by
over a length. From there to the bend
Newman spurted and gained a further
length. Then Newman was satisfied to
hold its advantage, and settled down to a
long, steady swing, which it continued
to within about 200 yards of the finish,
where it "picked it up," and flashed
over the line winners, by about 21 lengths,
in the good time of 6 mins. 16 secs.
In the second heat Trinity defeated Ormond in the remarkable time of 5 mins.
59 secs., and therefore the final on the
Wednesday was contested by Newman,
on the north, and Trinity, in the centre.
Newman was full of heart after the win
on Tuesday, and when both crews got
away to an excellent start and Newman
began to gain a few feet, its supporters
were wildly excited. However, its performance in the final was rather the antithesis of the heat. After the new bridge,
Trinity began to draw away, and had a
length's lead at the Morell bridge. Newman made a valiant bid from here to the
big bend, but could not gain much, and
when the crews straightened up for the
run home, Trinity led by two lengths.
Over the last half-mile, despite many
challenges by Newman, Trinity maintained its length and steadiness, and
won by two lengths.
The crew is to be congratulated on its
victory in the heat and for a great effort
in the final, but in the latter race it was
against a crew which had rowed together
for a long period, and one which had
been in strict training for almost six
weeks. There are now healthy signs that
rowing is coming into its own at Newman, and, as evidence of this, we have a
crew rowing during third term. This is
7
C
20
NEWMAN
a great advantage, and its helps our coach
for 1940, Mr. C. J. McCarthy, in that
he does not have to start off next year
absolutely from zero.
In the races for the Second VIII.'s,
which this , year were rowed in heats.
Newman was represented by an excellent
crew, which was seated :J. A. Favaloro (bow), 10st. Sibs.
R. Walker, 10st. Sibs.
P. W. Marshall, list. 6lbs.
D. A. McKenzie-McHarg, 10st. 9lbs.
F. A. R. Misell, 1 1st. 3lbs.
A. L. Jones, list. 21bs.
F. A. Russo, 10st. 3lbs.
D. B. Pitt (str.) , list. 9lbs.
M. J. Mulcahy (cox) .
With Mr. P. Hamilton Cody as coach,
this crew made great progress, and, in the
heat against Queen's, after a great start,
was untroubled to win by a length.
In the final, it met an extremely fast
combination from Ormond, and, fighting
gamely, was defeated by two lengths.
Two Newman men—J. Bourke and J.
O'Brien—were this year invited to train
for the inter-Varsity crew.
Mr. E. A. Andre was elected Captain
of Boats, with Messrs. J. McC. Seward
and J. J. Bourke, committee. A move
was set on foot to purchase a new boat,
and we hope that next year we will be
able to race and win in a new racer.

ATHLETICS
Our Third Big Win
N early review of our athletic talent
did not inspire excessive confidence
in our ability to regain the Cato
Shield from Ormond, as only four of the
nine members of last year's team were
again available, and there seemed to be
none amongst the freshmen capable of
compensating for the loss of such stars
as Brosnan, Hartung, Godby and Batros.
The newcomers proved a very enthusiastic
and hard-working lot, however, and soon
began to show very real promise. Early
in the season Mr. W. Harris was elected
captain, and under his watchful eye and
that of Mr. Alec Hillhouse, the Olympic
miler, whose services he was fortunate in
being able to enlist in our cause, excellent
progress was made. Ormond, too, had
lost some of their old champions, and
though we had one or two setbacks in
the team through sickness, we were not
the only team to suffer this misfortune.
Some anxiety was manifested amongst
the statisticians, owing to our lack of a
second sprinter, so the Committee cast
round, and their search was rewarded by
the acquisition of Adrian Jones. Both he and
Des. Kelly, another late starter, are deserving of our thanks and congratulations for
their efforts. Representatives from Newman did not gain a marked degree of success in the University sports, but we had
one or two trump cards still to play, and
on the fateful day the College and team
were quietly confident of success. The
day itself was not a good one, a strong
breeze and heavy track militating against
fast times. • The first event, the weight
put, saw a pair of Ormond freshmen filling 1st and 3rd places, Newman netting
2nd and 5th. The half-mile also went to
Ormond, Newman again filling 2nd and
Sth positions, through the agency of
Fogarty and O'Brien. Our first victory
came in the 100 yards, the time for which,
10.7 secs., was disappointingly slow. The
A
next event, the hurdles, was perhaps the
deciding factor in the final outcome of the
sports. Our two freshmen skimmed the
battens beautifully, to fill second and third
places, while Ormond failed to get a
point, and a strong Trinity pair who had
shared the honours for the past few years,
were relegated to the minor placings.
Galbally, leaping inches higher than he
had done in practice, tied with Steele
(Ormond) for 3rd place in the high
jump, thus staving off the loss of valuable points which we have been apt to
incur in this event. Queen's again took
pride of place, Walker clearing 5ft. 4ins.
In the next event, the 220, Seal hit
the tape a fairly easy winner, in the more
respectable time, 22.6 secs., but the victory was offset by the fact that the Ormond representatives occupied 2nd and
3rd places. Still, at the interval, we were
381 points, Ormond 351, and Queen's 30,
Trinity being out of the picture with only
11. We were further successful on resumption, when Seal, filling a new bill,
shared with Wilson the honours in the
long jump, Nulsen being 3rd.
This was followed by perhaps our greatest triumph for the day—Bill Harris's
win in the mile. It should be a very
long time before we will be privileged
to see another such lap as that last thrilling quarter, or a finish so tense and dramatic. A dozen times in the last 100
yards the lead changed, with never more
than four feet separating the first three
runners. A dozen yards from the line
Morgan, of Ormond, looked to have
drawn away, but with a last desperate effort the Newman skipper thrust his Promethlean blue-clad chest at the tape, and
the day was ours. True, the 440 still
remained, but our last two victories had
put us in an unassailable position, and
the final event, now that the tension and
strain had been broken, assumed the pro-
NEWMAN
22
portions of an insignificent epilogue. Ormond notched the first two places, we
the 3rd and 5th, this settling the final
scores as follows : —

511
Ormond ..

From these figures two facts stand out
worthy of notice—firstly, the gratifying
elevation of Queen's prestige in the athletic sphere (an elevation, incidently,
which has been evidenced in all InterCollegiate fixtures this year, and indicates that they will be a powerful force
to be reckoned with in the near future) ;
secondly, the part played by teamwork in
our win. They who decry athletics as
being too individualistic, with no room
for fostering team spirit, would do well
to compare this year's team with last
year's. Of the nine members of the 1938
team, five had represented Melbourne in
Inter-Varsity competition, and the team
was beaten by nine points. This year
only one of the ten athletes had InterVarsity experience, and a margin of 71
points was in our favour. Last year we
had five firsts and little else but fourth
and fifths ; this year, with 31 wins, we
were never lower than third place. These
are healthy signs, and, combined with the
fact that nine-tenths of the team are not
above 3rd year, augur well for our continued possession of athletic supremacy.
In conclusion, our deepest thanks are
clue to all who so graciously placed their
time and energy at our disposal, especially Miss Egan, Mr. Hillhouse, Mr.
Wright (who had charge of Eric Seal),
and on our inimitable Phil. Foster, whose
unfailing smile and oil-bottle contributed
very largely to the form and spirits of
the Newman team.

NEWMAN
FOOTBALL
Ormond Conquers Newman
HE defeat of the Newman football
team last year, after a long chain
of successes, showed that individual
brilliance was useless in the absence of
systematic team work. A football team
can only function as a team when all the
members are willing to practise as a
team for some time before the fixtures
are played. Success did not eventually
come to the team this year because, in
the final match, Ormond were far superior
on the day. Newman's brilliant victory
in the first round against Trinity was
due to splendid co-operation in all departments and a spirit of determination to put
Newman back on the map in the football world.
A series of practice matches were played
against the Teachers' College, Xavier,
Melbourne Grammar, the Air Force, and
the French Island Penal Settlement, all
of which helped to mould a strong team.
We were unfortunate in losing Westmore, who was injured earlier in the season whilst playing with the University
Blues.
T
NEWMAN VERSUS TRINITY.
The team which met Trinity was as
follows :—
Backs : Harris, Pierce, Gargan.
Half-backs : Ryan, Billings (c.), Shea
(v.c.).
Centres : Feehan, Mulvany, Seal.
Half-forwards : Moloney, Kargotich,
Meagher.
Forwards : Galbally, Williams, Riordan.
Followers : McLennan, Walker.
Rover : Smith.
Emergencies : D. Clarke, Watson.
Trinity went away quickly in the first
quarter, but their repeated attacks were
staved off by the strong Newman back
line. Billings and Pierce were unbeatable, and they were able to prevent
Trinity from taking an early lead. It
was evident from the start that Trinity
had to rely mainly on a few stars like
Ross, Lapin and Bunting, and lacked the
teamwork displayed by Newman.
A change in the second quarter, with
Kargotich in the ruck, Williams at centre half-forward, and Galbally full forward, was much better ; with the backline still functioning brilliantly, and McLennan effectively silencing the Trinity
champions in the ruck, Newman took the
lead, and from that time retained it.
In the third quarter, Newman showed
a new lease of life, and, with Meagher
playing splendidly, Newman went away
to a big lead, and Trinity faced the last
quarter 38 points down. They rallied,
but it was too much, and they were only
able to reduce the margin to one of 28
points.
Final scores:
Newman ..
Trinity . .. ..
Best players:
11 16 (82 points)
7 12 (54 points)
NEWMAN : Billings (the best on the
ground), Meagher, Pierce, McLennan, Ryan
and Galbally.
TRINITY : Lapin, Ross, Bunting and
Wilkinson.

NEWMAN
NEWMAN VERSUS ORMOND.
In the final, against Ormond, one
change was made in the Newman team,
Hetherington replacing Seal, who was injured in the match against Trinity.
The ground was in splendid condition,
but the overcast sky foretold a showery
afternoon. Ormond won the toss and
chose the eastern goal, which was favoured by the breeze. Ormond started
strongly, and quickly opened the scoring
with a goal. Newman rallied, but their
attacks were repulsed, and Ormond added
further to their score, and at quartertime had a lead of 23 points to nil.
In the second quarter, with the wind in
their favour, Newman set out to reduce
their deficit, but although they had the
ball down their end on numerous occasions, lack of co-operation amongst the
forwards lost many chances. Early in the
quarter Moloney was replaced by Watson. Half-way through the term the rain
commenced, and the game became much
more congested. At half-time Ormond
still retained their 23-point lead.
The rain continued throughout the interval, and made conditions very greasy,
the players having great difficulty in
handling the ball. Ormond were now
playing well, but the Newman backs, with
Pierce the driving force, more than held
their own. But a failure, particularly in
the half-forward line, prevented any serious counter-attack at this stage.
In the final term Ormond went still
further ahead, to finish easy victors, the
final scores being :
Ormond .
Newman .
..
9 14 (68 points)
5 6 (36 points)
Newman were best served by Pierce, who
was by far our best player ; Galbally, Billings, Shea and McLennan.
Ormond's best were : Steele, Thompsan,
and Hicks.
To Ormond, on attaining the football
premier ship for 1939, Newman offers
hearty congratulations.
We wish to thank Mr. S. P. King for
his efforts in coaching the team once
again ; and also Miss Egan, for the part
she played in providing for the needs of
the team on their trip to French Island,
so helping to make it such a happy occasion.

NEWMAN
TENNIS
Not This Time
HE Newman tennis team suffered
its usual first round defeat this year,
losing to a Queen's team, which
could well have been beaten had the Inter-Collegiate fixture been taken more
seriously. There is still an apathy towards tennis in the College, and the few
loyal players who tried to keep the Newman flag flying received little support
from the men in College and little from
the club itself. As in other sports, the
freshmen showed themselves the keenest
at practice. The men who are due to
pass on trust that this enthusiasm will
not spend itself, and that the sporting
traditions of Newman may safely be left
in their hands.
There seems little doubt that interCollegiate tennis, and Newman especially,
would benefit from the holding of the
tennis matches in the first term—despite
the pressure of other fixtures. Besides
the proximity of examinations, there is
little reason for expecting good play in
unsettled weather at the end of winter.
The Newman team was Grano, Smith,
Ahern and Gargan. Grano, essentially a
doubles player, could not match Hurburgh, Queen's No. 1 man, but Smith,
No. 2 for Newman, played splendidly to
T
hold several match points against Leembruggen before yielding. Ahern's polished
stroking was offset by poor retrieving
ability, but he was unfortunate to lose
to Keyes. Gargan played well, but lacked
practice, and could not clinch his rallies.
In the doubles matches Smith was again
the outstanding player, but the Newman
pairs could not take a rubber.

HOCKEY
Newman Undefeated
T a general meeting of the students
in 1931, it was decided to organise
a hockey team to represent Newman ; yet it was not until 1938 that a
move was made to field a team.
A
Since its entry into the inter-Collegiate
competition, the Newman hockey team has
not been defeated.
Such a brilliant performance could
never have been achieved were it not for
the individual effort of each player, and
the unceasing efforts of the captain, Connaughton.
Several players had had no experience
in competitive hockey before last season,
but, with the help of the more experienced
men, Ahern and Bourke, the captain trained
them throughout the year.
The first game this year was that between Newman and Trinity, Newman
winning by three goals to one. Early in
the first half Trinity scored, but this was
quickly followed by a goal to Newman.
This score was due to a brilliant dash
by Robinson, who, taking the ball in the
centre, outdistanced his opponents, and
made a safe hit from in fron-t.
Early in the next half Connaughton
scored two goals after cleverly evading
the Trinity backs. Trinity could not
break the Newman defence. Time after
time the ball was pushed down, only to
be sent back in one hit by Kargotich,
McLennan or Seward. Our weight was
too strong for the lighter Trinity men,
and Newman finished comfortably ahead.
The match between Ormond and
Queen's was drawn, and after several
weeks' delay, it was agreed to decide the
match by tossing a coin—Queen's winning the toss.
The final was played in the "Swot
Vac." Once again the scores were three
goals to one in favour of Newman.
Queen's were unable to withstand the,
pace and system of the Newman men.
They seemed rather taken aback by the
"unorthodox" methods adopted by Newman. As before, our players were on
top, not one being beaten in his own position. Riordan was particularly fast, and
he, Barrett, and Zilko were responsible for
many of the Newman attacks. Nulsen,
in goals, was as solid as ever, and did
not allow one chance to go by. The honours in this game must go to Connaughton and Ahern, who played a brilliant
system of clever passing, which completely outwitted the Queen's defence.
The Newman team missed the services
of Westmore and Seal, two very fast players, who gave invaluable aid in the 1938
series. With the exception of these two
and Batros, who left Newman last year,
the team remained the same.
We are indebted to the umpires who
gave their services, and to the timekeeper,
Ray Woods, who was a familiar figure
on the sidelines, cheering the Newman
men on. His advice to some of the
younger players was most useful.
The team:
M. Connaughton
(captain).
T. Ahern (vicecaptain).
C. Bourke.
C. Nulsen.
J. Kargotich.
J. Seward.
W. M. Barrett.
G. Robinson.

QAnnual Golf Tournament
NCE again we were fortunate in
having fine weather for the Newman Golf Tournament, which was
held on Friday, July 28th, at the Commonwealth Golf Course. The event proved
this year even more popular with Old
Boys than in previous years, and a large
number participated, amongst whom were
O
Dr. J. B. O'Collins, Mr. F. P. Morgan,
Dr. S. Bray, Mr. W. Scarf, Dr. M.
Healy, Dr. J. A. Clarebrough, Mr. J. X.
O'Driscoll, Mr, S. P. King, Mr. N.
O'Donoghue, Dr. C. Cohen, Mr. A. J.
McCormick, Mr. K. Stevenson, Dr. J. Mulcahy, and Mr. J. Briggs.
As in previous years, Dr. J. B. O'Collins presented the very fine trophy, which
he donated in 1936, to be held each year
by the winner of the morning "A" grade
stroke play, and which is for competition
amongst both present and Old Boys.
Several other trophies were competed for
by both "A" and "B" grades.
This year the task of the handicappers
was made especially difficult by the raised
standard of golf played by those present
in College and the fewer 54 limit markers
competing. However, as results showed,
no serious errors were made, there being
close finishes in all events.
Our sincere thanks are tendered to the
Commonwealth Golf Club for their kindness in once more placing their splendid
course at our disposal for the day, and
praise is due to the staff for their courtesy and co-operation.
The O'Collins Cup was won by Mr. McC.
Seward, who showed great improvement
in form to win with a nett 71 off a handicap of 18. The morning bogey event
for the Old Boys was, we are pleased to
record, deservedly won by Dr. J. B.
O'Collins.
There was a tie in the "A" grade bogey
morning event between D. V. Kelly and
T. A. Grano, with scores of 2 down.
This was decided by the toss of a coin,
and, as a result, T. A. Grano carried off
the cup.
Despite stern opposition in the "B"
grade stroke event from the other 54
markers, J. Hurley managed to win by
one stroke from J. Hede, whose progress
from tee to green, though erratic, appeared to be fairly successful. We are
pleased to note that each year we are receiving increased support from members
of the College, who, though their golfing
ability may not be greatly marked, make
up for this lack by unbounded enthusiasm.
In the afternoon the "A" four-ball best
ball bogey event was notable for an inexplicable falling off in form of the majority of still active players. Despite this,
however, E. A. Ryan and J. Wren won
in excellent style, with a score of 4 up.
During the afternoon's play, interesting
running commentaries on individual play
were heard from such fours as Dr. J. A.
Clarebrough, J. Seward, Mr. J. X.
O'Driscoll, D. V. Kelly and Dr. S. Bray.
The "B" grade stroke was won by K.
Whitehead.
In the afternoon we were honoured by
the presence of Rev. Fr. Rector, who has
always taken the greatest interest in the
function.
The day was particularly successful,
and it is to be hoped that in future years
we may receive even greater support from
both Present and Old Boys.

'Tab oo
ABOO—"the Polynesian name given
to prohibitions enforced by religious
or magical sanctions. As a verb, it
means to `prohibit'; as an adjective, 'prohibited, dangerous, sacred, unclean.' "
This definition is from a representative
old authority, which only goes to show
how misleading old authorities sometimes
are. So far as Newman is concerned
"Taboo" is not "prohibited, dangerous,
sacred, or unclean"—it is three or four
pages of college wit gathered by the editor
just before going to press, and inserted
annually in the magazine. The ancient
taboo was fixed and rigid, ours is of
variable and fluctuating content, and for
this reason the editor is prepared to say
that the following is a fair average sample
of the latter type—he cannot be proved
wrong.

W. P. Shea: "Well, who is it ?"
Extract from the results of The Ski
Ed.: "What about making a funny remark for 'Taboo,' Tony ?"
Tony: "Well, pearls have been dropping for the last 20 minutes" (afterthought) "they're almost worthless now."

Voice: "Is Kevin Pierce there ?"
Reply: "No, he's not in his room—try

Voice: "Working his

P.J.O'D.: "It's the rough, bluff character of man that must be tempered by the
softer, sweeter nature of woman."
Harry: "What's the badge, Joe ?"
Gargs: "Oh that ! Gouge Old Boys,

The conversation centred around an old
outback hotel in New South Wales :

FROM A SECRET DOCUMENT.
. . . In our midst there journeys that
dapper little man of immense and prodigious reasoning, carefully tending and
adjusting the mechanisms which bring us
light, water and other necessities.
The problem of blown fuses has ever
been a source of evil amongst students,
but they never suspected that the trouble
lay in their inability to avoid treading on
the wires of electrical appliances, with the
consequent banking up, back pressure, etc.
(See diag.)
Some years back, we were at a loss to
explain a very eccentric and flushing phenomenon, reputed to have taken place in
the precincts of C flat. Many of the diehards suspected the presence of evil
spirits, and chaos reigned for many a
week till help was successfully enlisted.
There has frequently been shown a
fondness for delving among the foundations of the building in search of hot
water pipes, gold and other valuables, and
we have no doubt there are now constructed air-raid shelters and other artifices of future use.

Tie 771a9agine
In order to prepare for better organisation
of this Magazine in future years, notice has
been given of the following motions, to be
moved at the first-term General Meeting
of the Students' Club in 1940:
ADDENDA TO CONSTITUTION.
1. That the Editor and Business Manager
of "The Newman Magazine" be appointed
by the General Committee at its first meeting in the first term of the current year.
2. That an Assistant Editor be appointed
in first' term by the General Committee,
in consultation with the Editor, on the understanding that the Assistant Editor will
be available to serve in the year following.
3. That an Assistant Business Manager
he appointed in first term by the General
Committee, in consultation with the Business Manager, on the understanding that the
Assistant Business Manager will be available
to serve in the year following.
This system of the club's officers training
their assistants, so that they may succeed
them in the next year is essential if we are
to have continuity of the most expert
talent available in our officers. It is already
in operation in the case of the ball secretaries, but has not, so far, been consistently
applied to the Magazine, where experience is equally necessary.
It is also necessary that the technical production of the Magazine be subject to
the decision of those most competent to
judge in such matters.
4. That the printing and production arrangements-be made by recommendation of
the Editor and Business Manager of "The
Magazine" and the Treasurer of the
N.C.S.C. in consultation, the recommendation to be confirmed by the N.C.S.C. at its
second-term general meeting.
5. That in all matters affecting the
Magazine, the General Committee and the
Business Manager be advised by the
Editor.
INSTRUCTIONS TO THE EDITOR.
1. That the Editor, as appointed at the
beginning of the academic year, be responsible for the filing of the following information relative to the Magazine.
(a) All inter-collegiate sporting results;
(b) Academic records;
1. Class lists for November of the previous year, exhibitions and prizes, published early in the year by the
University;
2. Programme of the March Conferring
of Degrees;
3. Final Honour Class Lists for
December and March;
4. Programme of the December Conferring of Degrees (to be filed for
the following year).
OLD BOYS' NOTES.
In the past, Newman has devoted one-fifth
of the text of the Magazine to Old Boys'
notes, which are traditionally inaccurate and
out of date. The sale of the Magazine to
Old Boys amounts to about 20 per annum.
This is in striking contrast with the
Queen's magazine, which devotes one-sixteenth of its text to Old' Boys, but has an
Old Boys' circulation of 180.

This year, in an attempt to remedy this
gross disproportion, a copy of the following
circular was sent to 294 Old Boys :
Dear Old Newmctnian,—
It has been calculated that the abandonment of the Old Boys' notes would reduce
the cost of the Magazine to members from
3/6 to less than 2/6.
2. In view of-
We wish to bring to your notice the fact
that a special effort is being made this year
to bring the Old Boys' pages up to date.
We would be very grateful if you would
fill in the attached form, and return it, with
3/6 enclosed to
(i.)
(ii.)
(iii.)
(iv.)
THE EDITOR.
I hereby enclose 3/6 for a copy of the
Newman College Magazine for the year 19..
(v.)
The poor response of the Old Boys
to the circular, issued 18/10/'39;
Their general lack of interest in
the Magazine;
The unsatisfactory condition of the
Old Boys' notes;
The great difficulty in their being
kept up to date;
The large amount of space they
take up in the Magazine;
that the aforesaid Old Boys' notes in future
be deleted from the Magazine.

RONALD PARKER.
Early this year we were saddened by the
death, at his home in Auckland, New Zealand,
of one of our youngest Old Boys—Ronald
Parker. His life in College- had been an active
one, and his contemporaries remember his
ability as a boxer and his skill at rugby, in
which he represented the University, and was
awarded his Blue. Gameness was Ronald Parker's chief asset—he was only a little man, but
everything he did reflected his stoutness of
heart. His studies for his final examinations
in medicine were interrupted by appendicitis,
and he passed his examinations with honours
whilst confined to his bed in hospital. He submitted to the fatal malady that commenced its
attack during his last year in Newman with
a cheerfulness and courage that only a man
of his calibre could display. His return from
Lourdes uncured did nothing to dismay him—
indeed, he seemed gayer than ever. Now he
has passed on and his four years of what must
have been intense mental suffering leave with
us the shining example of a very gallant Catholic
man.

This year an attempt has been seriously made to put the Old Boys' notes on an accurate
basis. Future editors are advised that the italicised portions are, to the best of our belief,
moderately authentic; the comment following, however, is valid only for the current year,
1939. For this information we are indebted to Messrs. J. X. O'Driscoll, H. Frederico, F.
Misell, P. Norris, W. M. Barrett, Dr. H. Sinn, and Father Rector, to whom we tender our
thanks.

"The man who cannot
and does not save money
cannot and will not do
anything else worth
while."
"Your Security of Purity."
Andrew Carnegie.
HETHER you succeed
in your intended career or not will depend
upon the resources that you
can build up; resources in
knowledge, in skill, in
physique, in initiative, and,
too, in money!
W
Money in certain crises
may be the determining
factor, though not always;
but always money is an
important factor. It is wise,
therefore, to learn the value
of money early.
SO SAVE!
SAVE TO GET ON!
