  • Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club 1958
    Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club 1958 - 1966 John Henderson ‘The Boot’ Remembers Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College RFC ‘The Boot’ Remembers When I first matriculated in October 1958 at the Scottish School of Physical Education, Jordanhill, Glasgow to undergo a three year diploma course of training in order to qualify as a teacher of Physical Education, I had no idea that some years later my senior rugby career would turn out to be as creditable as it did. Although I knew then that I was a very accurate and lengthy instep place-kicker of a rugby ball, I was under no illusion that my getting a place in the Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club top squad would be easy, nor did I have any notion then that retaining a first choice spot in the 1st XV for a good number of seasons might possibly occur. However, I was aware of the fact that graduating from College was not the end of the opportunity to play senior rugby for Jordanhill, as former students as players were not only considered eligible, but were also deemed essential in order to maintain a fighting chance for coach Bill Dickinson‟s side to compete at the highest levels possible in Scotland. Thus time was on my side, if only I was patient, and prepared to work hard at the game. But first I had, during my student days, to convince mentors Bill Dickinson and George Orr of my potential, and then, if this was accomplished, to provide consistent proof thereafter of my continuing value as a full back/three-quarter and place kicker in the top side in its annual attempts to win the Scottish Unofficial Club Championship and the Glasgow District Knock-Out Trophy.

From this, an attempt is made to establish deviancy. Comparative evidence, such as literary, runic, legal and folkloric evidence will be used critically to shed perspective on burial practices and the artefacts found within the graves. The thesis will mostly cover burials from the Viking Age (late 8th century to the mid- 11th century), but where the comparative evidence dates from other periods, its validity is discussed accordingly. Two types of deviant burial emerged: the criminal and the victim. A third type, which shows distinctive irregularity yet lacks deviancy, is the healer/witch burial.

Editor's Summary . Cases Referred to . Judgment . [1] Intellectual property ­ Trade marks ­ Registration of shape as trade mark ­ Where shape is not intended to be used to distinguish owner's products from those of another, it cannot be regarded as a trade mark ­ Application for expungement from trade marks register therefore allowed. Editor's Summary Both parties involved in the present matter were players in the pharmaceutical industry. The Appellants sought the upholding of a trade mark for the shape of a tablet, and a finding that the Respondent had infringed the trade mark. The Respondent imported a tablet with the same composition and shape as that of the Appellants. In the court a quo, the Respondent applied for the expungement from the trade mark register of the shape trade mark. The Appellants launched a counter­application for relief for trade mark infringement. The latter application failed while that of the Respondent succeeded. Held ­ Interested parties may apply to court for the removal of an entry wrongly made or remaining on the trade mark register. The first question posed by the Court was whether the Appellants' shape mark constituted a trade mark in terms of section 10(1) of the Trade Marks Act 194 of 1993 ("the Act").
