THE ALUREDIAN EDITOR: J . B. C. BROWN. SuB-EDITORS : R. C. POULTON, J . S. DOUGLAS. VoL. XXVIII. No. 4· FEBRUARY, 1956. Editorial HE time has_come to state a policy concerning the printing of this T magazine; not, unfortunately, a policy of expansion, but rather one of retrenchment. For some time the magazine has produced two editions each year, one of which covers the activities of the Michaelmas Term and the other those of the Lent and Summer Terms. It would indeed be a pity if the standard of the magazine dropped below that which it set itself, and the ever-present problem of economy in all possible ways renders it necessary to differentiate rather more than before between the Talmtcm relative sizes of the two editions. Therefore, the Michaelmas Term Stm~nut Cou'ltJI Gazette editiori will be kept comparatively thin, and will be a record of the School Castle Green activities during that Jo86o period without the embellishments of original com­ positions and stories. These latter contributions will be just as welcome as before, but will now be almost exclusively confined to the edition covering the Lent and Summer Terms. 1955 draws to a close, and 1956 is waiting in the wings; we hope all our readers enjoyed a very merry Christmas, and wish them prosperity and happiness in the New Year. THE EDITORS. School Notes E record with great gratitude a very generous gift of £soo towards W the War Memorial Fund from Lionel Rogers, Esq., Fellow of the Western Division and formerly High Sheriff of the County of Cornwall. We congratulateS. R. D. Bradfield, Esq., O.A., who, as we recently reported, is Deputy Chairman of the London County Council, on his appointment by Her Majesty the Qu~en to be Deputy Lieutenant of the County of London. Our congratulations go to Mr. Harvey on being selected to represent Somerset at Squash. We are very pleased to hear that T. G. Jefford has been awarded an Open Exhibition to Queen's College, Oxford, and warmly congratu­ late him on his success.

Vicar of Buckland Dinham, Member of the British Ornitho- logists' Union, and one of the authors of" The Birds of DevonT WHEN Mr. Cecil Smith published his Birds of Somerset, in 1869, he was able to record but 217 species, to which he subsequently added ten others in a list contributed by him to Vol. xvi of the Transactions of the Somerset Archaaological and Natural History Society (for 1870), thus bringing the total number of birds for Somerset to 227. But even this number appears inadequate to repre- sent the Ornis of so large a county as Somerset, when it is compared with the lists which have been made out for the adjoining counties. Thus for Wiltshire, a county which comes far behind Somerset in geographical importance, as it possesses no coast line, the Rev. A. Smith was able to . C. enumerate 235 species ; in Dorsetshire, Col. Mansel-Pleydell, as was to be expected, had a fuller list, numbering 254 species, to which we are able to add three others, thus bringing the Dorsetshire county birds to a total of 257 ; while for Devon- shire, which has a sea frontage both on the north and south, as many as 300 species can be claimed.

Mr. Elton considered that in any such work care should be taken to separate or mark the different periods. Within the last few years there had been extensive discoveries of the remains of the neolithic men. There had been some in his own district. The Committees should be instructed to mark and distinguish, not only the Roman, but also neolithic and paleolithic remains. Professor Boyd Dawkins called attention to a map pub- lished by the International Congress of Prehistoric Archaeo- logists. In this map most valuable details were given, the information being conveyed by a series of symbols. He considered it the best map of its kind, and knew of nothing similar at all comparable with it.

First, however, I will solicit your condolence on the loss which our Society has very recently sustained by the death of one of its Vice-Presidents, Lord Talbot de Malahide, who, in 1857, was President of this Society, and as lately as 1879 presided, with learning, courtesy, and tact, over the Royal Archaeological Institute, when it met at Taunton.

  • Auberon Herbert (1922-1974)
    183 Auberon Herbert (1922-1974) Auberon Mark Henry Yvo Molyneux Herbert, founder and Chairman of the Anglo-Byelo­ russian Society, died peacefully at his home in Pixton Parlk, Dulverton, Somerset on 21 July 1974, aged 52 years. He was the only son of Lieutenant Colonel the Hon. Aubrey Herbert, second son of the fourth Earl of Caernarvon, and former Member of Parl­ iament for Yeovil; his mother the Hon. Mrs. Aubrey Herbert was the daughter of an Irish peer, Lord de Vesci. Politician, wit, patron of the arts and pro­ tector of immigrant organisa­ tions, Auberon by his death has left a big gap in the lives of many people. Of him a former Minister and member of the Society wrote: 'Auberon Herbert was a true friend to more people than most men's acquaintance ... He was, in his way a truly great man.'1 He was educated at Ampleforth College and Oxford, where the Second World War interrupted his studies. Rejected by the British Army on health grounds, he enlisted voluntarily in the Polish forces as a private, later being commissioned as a second lieutenant, and was awarded several decorations for gallantry in the field. From his father, a leading British expert on the Near East, and from his experience in the forces, he acquired a lasting interest in the affairs of the less privileged nations of Eastern Europe, - particularly the Albanians, the Poles, the Ukrainians and the Byelo­ russians. After the war, he became concerned with the relief of refugees in Great Britain, and in 1954, together with a few friends, he founded the Anglo-Byelorussian Society.

I~ the following account of traverses made during the past autumn across some of the classical ground of West Somerset and its con- fines, we do not aim at any extensive alteration in principle of the work wrought by the master hand of De la Beche, and given to the scientific world forty years ago *. Notwithstanding the encyclopedic paper of Mr. Etheridget, wherein both the physical and palmontelogical relations of the North-Devon rocks are so ably worked out, instances of unbelief will occur where ocular evidence is wanting, prompted perhaps by a hankering after the apparently simple version of the structure of North Devon put forward by the late lamented Prof. Jukes +% Although the ground has been carefully gone over in Mr. Ethe- ridge's paper, such a confirmation of his views as the infilling of minor stratigraphieal details affords may not be altogether unworthy of attention. The classification which De la Boche's unequalled descriotion of the North-Devon rocks suggests was put into form by the la'te Prof. Phillips, who, however, included the unfossiliferous gri~s and slates of Piekwell Down with the slates of Mortehoe as one division w Although these divisions were similarly treated by Mr.
